Chapter 345 345 Five Teams Join
Even Yan Congjiang and Quanshun, who had not planned to join Shicheng before, also thought about joining.
After being encouraged by Ni Yueping and Situ Weikui, he became determined.
However, more than two months have passed, and they have not found an opportunity to put this idea into action. The big team is busy with their own things and says they don't care about it. Kong Fenglin and Lu Gan say they can't do anything about it. The only ones who can do it, Ao Chengyi and Lan Shiruo, are nowhere to be seen all day.
Is this a disguised rejection of them?
Everyone was a little disappointed and angry. It was too much for them to just say a few words and yet they had to be left out to be humiliated. They were not going to stick around and refuse to leave.
Just when he was feeling disheartened and about to leave with complaints, Lan Shiruo and Ao Chengyi appeared, "Sorry, I've been a bit busy lately and neglected it."
The young couple had a proper attitude and was full of sincerity. The four of them felt much more balanced and waved their hands repeatedly, "No, no." There was really no neglect. They were provided with delicious food and drinks, and someone was specially arranged to be on duty. Kong Fenglin and Lu Gan also came over from time to time to have a drink or two and chat with them.
It's just that they have been guests like this for more than two months, and no matter how thick-skinned they are, they can't stay here any longer. The people who came in with them have already left, and later more than a dozen groups of people came and left. Only they are here eating and drinking for free, feeling embarrassed.
I haven't been able to do what I should have done, and I don't know if I can do it. I feel very upset and unhappy.
Lan Shiruo smiled, knowing that they still had complaints in their hearts and thought that she was deliberately leaving them out in the cold.
In fact, it was not true. No one else could take people up the mountain to contract mutant beasts, so they were the only ones who could go. When they came back and saw the mutant beasts all over the city, they all became digestive beasts in their eyes. They panicked and plunged into the space. They were so busy that they forgot their own last names, let alone anything else.
The other friends are also busy. There are many things that require them to take the lead, help, and teach. They don’t care about the affairs of the base personnel and only focus on the areas they are good at.
Although Kong Fenglin and Lu Gan were in charge of this matter, they did not have time to ask Lan Shiruo and her husband what they thought about these teams. They were a little unsure, so they could not take care of it for the time being, and then the current situation came about.
"It's our fault indeed. Please don't misunderstand us. We really don't mean to offend Qiao. With so many new mouths to feed, we have to solve their ration problems before we can feel at ease. It's an honor for Shicheng that you think highly of us. But there's one thing I'm not sure if you can accept."
The four of them looked at each other, all puzzled. "Please speak?"
"I believe you've all seen the situation in Stone City. Those who need to go out on missions are all trained together and then formed into temporary teams. So, if you want to join Stone City, the personnel must be dispersed, and you will lose the rights you have now. You will be like ordinary base members, doing whatever they do. Even if you don't join the mission team and want to stay in the base to develop, you will also have to disperse. Whether you become an administrator depends on everyone's decision. You will all start from the grassroots level, without any privileges or preferential treatment. If you can accept this, Stone City welcomes you."
The four of them had anticipated this situation. Having been in Stone City for so long, they knew the basic pattern and naturally had no objection to it. "We are willing. We are very familiar with the situation in Stone City. If they want to join, we will naturally comply."
"Do your team members have the same idea?"
"Yes, we had already discussed it when we came here. Everything will be done according to the rules of Shicheng. Once you join Shicheng, you are a member of Shicheng. You will obey any arrangements you make. There will be no special arrangements."
Lan Shiruo smiled, "Well, Shicheng welcomes you. I'll have Brother Lu come and make arrangements for you later. You can decide where you want to go. Do you want your family to come and pick you up?"
"We're going to pick them up," Ni Yueping said. "Before we came here, we weren't sure if they would stay, so we didn't bring them along. Now they're relatively safe in their original base, with plenty of food and clothing. We'll pick them up once things settle down here."
The other three nodded in agreement. They were in a similar situation, especially Yan Cong and Jiang Quanshun. They had not originally planned to change jobs. It was a spur-of-the-moment decision. Their families didn't know about it, and they would have to go back and explain it to their families later.
“Okay, just make your own plans. When they come, you can ask Brother Lu to make arrangements.”
The few of them calmed down and hesitated for a long time before asking, "What about the contracted beast and the mineral spirit?"
"As for the contracted beasts, when we have time one day, we will take you to the mountains to make the contract. After you have implanted the chips, the mineral essences will be distributed uniformly. We are all old acquaintances now, so we are all considered old members. We can work hard for Stone City together in the future."
"Okay, don't worry, we will work hard for Shicheng."
Lan Shiruo and Ao Chengyi comforted the four people and left. At the corner, they met Yan Tian and his teammates. The group of people were squatting on the ground, as pitiful as abandoned beast cubs, listless, and more wilted than eggplants hit by frost.
"Are you guys free?" Lan Shiruo asked.
The group of people didn't expect to meet Lan Shiruo and the other person, and their faces were full of surprise.
He then realized that this was a rare opportunity and urged Yan Tian to ask quickly.
Yan Tian looked conflicted, not knowing how to ask. He couldn't bring himself to do it.
Lan Shiruo felt anxious for them when she saw them like this.
"Go find Brother Lu later and ask him to make arrangements for you. Don't sit around doing nothing all day. Don't you know that Shicheng doesn't support idle people?"
A group of people looked at Lan Shiruo stupidly. What did it mean?
"Um, did we pass?"
Lan Shiruo shrugged, "Just barely passed."
"Oh my god, we're finally alive," a group of people breathed a sigh of relief. These past two months felt like two years. If it weren't for the free food and drink in Shicheng, they would have suffocated to death long ago.
Seeing the team members happy, Yan Tian smiled widely, but in an instant, his expression became serious again, "But about Lin Ting, we..."
A group of teammates rushed over to cover Yan Tian's mouth. What a waste of time! Couldn't they wait until they were firmly established in Shicheng before discussing this person? What if Lan Shiruo changed her mind?
Yan Tian was nearly suffocated by the pressure. Lan Shiruo shook her head and laughed, "Don't worry, whether I tell her or not, you've already passed. The reason I'm giving you the conclusion now isn't because of Lin Ting, but to test your character. It's not bad. Although not outstanding, it's not a big problem. Keep working hard in the future."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, everything was fine.
Yan Tian hesitated and asked, "Did Lin Ting pass as well?"
Lan Shiruo curled her lips and said, "I've said before that Shicheng doesn't want just any ugly melon or jujube. Don't worry about others, take care of yourself first. Go find Brother Lu and tell him if you have any problems."
"Okay, I understand."
A group of people left, and Lan Shiruo hung on Ao Chengyi, completely losing her image. "I'd rather kill a few more zombies than be a caring big sister."
Ao Chengyi smiled and took his young wife into his arms, put her long legs on his waist, and carried her away. "From now on, we won't be in charge of these matters anymore. Leave it all to Lu Gan."
