Chapter 341 Reward
Lan Shiruo was quite surprised. She had thought everyone wanted to live a comfortable life, safe and secure with their families, but she hadn't expected everyone to want to venture out into the world. "Okay, then I'll leave the canteen and daily necessities to Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Huo. Is that okay?" Mrs. Fang was Fang Tongtong's mother, the former owner of a small hotel. Mrs. Huo was Huo Qingyun's mother. Her second child was eaten by a rotting baby, which also injured her health. After more than a year of recuperation, she's basically fine. She doesn't need to do heavy work, so she can be a manager. She used to run a small clothing store, so she's also good at dealing with people.
The two of them were naturally happy to have something to do, "No problem."
"Deng Wen Hengfei, I hope you can put aside your current tasks for now and create a simplified version of the personal card. This will facilitate management and improve the efficiency of entry inspections. We can then gradually upgrade the card later. All of Shicheng's terms, benefits, and personal achievements can be included in the card, so that they can be searched in big data."
"good."
Lan Shiruo let out a sigh. She really wasn't good at arranging and managing these things. In the larger team, Ao Chengyi was a man of his wife's will. Aside from his wife and son's safety, he never interfered with anything else. The other members of the team also followed the lead of the older brothers and sisters. To put it bluntly, they were too lazy to take care of things. There was no hope for the children, let alone the beasts, so she had to do it.
But she was also a half-baked person. "This is how things will be arranged for now," she said loudly. "If there's anything wrong, everyone can help each other out. From now on, all matters concerning the base will be handled by Brother Kong and Brother Lu. If you're undecided, you can discuss it with them. If you really can't make up your mind, you can consult with us. In short, no matter how big or small the matter is, just go to them."
Everyone laughed, and it sounded like she was trying to pass the buck. It was really hard for her, as she had to go out on missions, feed thousands of people, and worry about all the big and small things in the base.
Kong Fenglin and Lu Gan nodded solemnly and seriously, "Don't worry, we won't destroy the base you worked so hard to build, and we will never let your hard work and efforts go to waste."
"Of course we trust you. From now on, Stone City will be handed over to you all."
Things are roughly arranged, and there are still some minor things that can be taken care of later. After the tasks are explained, it's time to hand out the rewards.
"Next are two good news, Chaoyang."
Lu Chaoyang nodded and took out a mineral essence wrapped in an ice toad shell. Wang Hu, Nie Liangbao, and Ji Yineng's eyes widened instantly. They thought they hadn't obtained it, but they actually did? When? How come they didn't know?
Others were still confused and didn't know what it was.
Lu Chaoyang said, "This substance that is neither gold, stone, nor jade is called mineral essence." Lu Chaoyang explained the mineral essence in detail, and the audience exclaimed in surprise, saying that this was a divine treasure.
"We've obtained quite a bit of mineral essence. The present state of Shicheng is the result of everyone's joint efforts. To reward everyone and to thank the founding heroes of Shicheng, we'll give each of you one as an encouragement. I hope that in the future, everyone will work together to create brilliance together."
"Gudong" the sound of swallowing saliva came one after another.
Nie Liangbao asked dryly, "Boss Lu, when you say 'everyone', do you mean everyone sitting here, or which one?"
Lu Chaoyang smiled, "Everyone in my Stone City who joined my Stone City before this moment will be rewarded with one, including those in their stomachs."
"Oh my god!" They were so excited that they couldn't help but swear. Single guys couldn't wait to marry a girl and have a baby.
How many would that be, one for each person? Can we even share them all? Is it really okay to give away such precious things instead of keeping them for critical moments?
Everyone in the big team was very calm. Although the items were rare and valuable, they had a lot of them.
At present, the total number of people belonging to Shicheng in the base is only about 40,000 to 50,000. If each person in the base has one, less than one percent of them will be used.
Besides, there is no need to worry even if it runs out. With the Mineral Essence, it can make Mineral Essence and other metals. Although the production speed varies according to the level, they will never be short of these things in the future. It is perfect to use them to win people's hearts.
"Everyone, please be aware of this first. Once Dengwen has produced the ID cards, Brother Kong and Brother Lu will have counted the personnel and then distribute them. During this time, we will also need to study how to forge them, so that everyone doesn't get the cards and then be unable to use them, which would cause panic."
"Yes, yes, yes." Everyone had no objection. This was the best. However, they were also worried that they would get something that they could only look at but not eat.
Seeing everyone so excited, Lan Shiruo felt embarrassed to tell the next piece of good news.
"Ahem, that"
Everyone looked at Lan Shiruo eagerly. The first good news was so shocking to them, and they didn't know if they could bear it if there was another one.
Lan Shiruo's mouth twitched, feeling like a little white rabbit surrounded by big bad wolves. "Look, outside of Stone City, in those mountains that were once home to Sa Bing and his tribe, there are many mutant beasts. We've learned some methods that allow us to temporarily communicate with the mutant beasts and help everyone form contracts. So we've decided to give everyone in the base a chance to find a mutant beast that suits them and form a contract. Brother Lu can go down and make arrangements, and we'll go to the mountains in batches. It's voluntary, not forced. Whether the contract will be successful or not is also not forced, it just depends on whether we're compatible."
After the words fell, no one responded for a long time. Lan Shiruo was quite surprised. They didn't want it? "If you don't..."
"No," the uniform shouts startled Lan Shiruo. What did she say?
Everyone rubbed their noses awkwardly, a bit excited. Contracted beasts? They dreamed of them. At the base, only the seven Sa Bing brothers and Xia Xun had them. They were envious and jealous. What could they possibly do? Even if they knew there were beasts in the mountains ahead, they wouldn't dare go. It was fraught with danger. If they didn't get their contracted beasts, they'd lose their lives.
But now the boss says he can help them sign a contract, and everyone will get one. How can they not be excited?
Multiple contracted beasts are not just multiple right-hand men, they are multiple friends, relatives, partners, and multiple lives at critical moments. They are closer than anything else, and they are in tune with each other and complement each other.
"Thank you, Boss. We want it. We want it so badly. Thank you, Boss."
Lan Shiruo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was it necessary to be so excited? "Okay, you guys arrange the time and the number of people, and we'll cooperate."
"Well, it won't be long before our Stone City will be even more lively. By then, the city will be full of smart beasts. Just think about it, it's spectacular." Although Xia Xun had become a chatterbox and could no longer make contracts, he was thinking about the army of mutant beasts. He had already started planning in his mind how to train them, how to deploy the troops, how to make them look imposing, and how to look cool.
Lan Shiruo suddenly covered her chest and realized belatedly that animals were better eaters than humans. After the contract, the animals could no longer be thrown into the mountains. They had to be self-sufficient and needed to be fed by them. How much would they have to eat? She wanted to go farming immediately. The food crisis weighed heavily on her and she felt anxious.
Ao Chengyi smiled and squeezed his young wife's hand, "Be good, don't be afraid, I'm here. At worst, I can ask Xiao Feifei to get some more intelligent mutant beasts to help."
Lan Shiruo forced a laugh that was uglier than crying. A smart mutant beast was still a beast and probably couldn't help much. In the end, the couple had to work like slaves. It was so depressing. They were obviously the big guys, so why did they have to become farming slaves?
