A gentle breeze blows, yellow sand billows, and off-road vehicles rumble across the wasteland.
Visibility was very low in the wasteland, but fortunately there weren't many people with cars, so there wasn't a serious car accident.
Xia Chuhe stroked his chin, pondering Wang Laoba's matter.
In the wasteland, killing someone shouldn't be illegal.
Actually, Xia Chuhe could have taken care of Wang Laoba without Xin Diao's help, but the effect might not have been as shocking as killing the old turtle with three punches.
Moreover, personally dealing with a lowly henchman is not classy and not conducive to showing off.
"Boss, your sudden move was brilliant, thank you~" Xia Chuhe leaned back in his seat and saw Xin Diao's nonchalant cool face in the rearview mirror.
Wang Yan coughed lightly, sat up straight, and was practically wagging his tail.
Xin Diao casually replied, "Oh, it was Wang Huohuo's suggestion."
Wang Yan slammed his fist on the driver's seat: "What 'fire'! 'Yan' means beautiful jade!"
Xin Diao: "Wang Huohuo, do you know who I'm talking about?"
Xia Chuhe, Lu Danggui, and Diao Jie all nodded and looked at Wang Yan.
Wang Yan: "..."
Wang Huohuo it is.
Wang Yan resigned himself to his fate, though he still harbored some resentment, knowing he was no match for the opponent.
Xia Chuhe's eyebrows and eyes were curved.
That's great, it seems I've made some really good friends in the wasteland.
I feel happy just by casually saying some trashy things. I don't worry about being excluded even if I don't say a word.
Xia Chuhe looked at Lu Dangui, who was sitting to her right.
Lu Dangui rested her arm on the car window, smiling with her face propped up.
Her appearance reminded Xia Chuhe of himself in civilized society—seemingly integrated into it, but actually detached from it.
Xia Chuhe didn't have any very close friends in civilized society; she could talk to anyone and seemed to get along well with everyone.
Xia Chuhe had a dining buddy, but apart from eating, the two never talked about anything else or did anything else together.
Xia Chuhe had a gaming partner, but the two never did anything outside of gaming.
Xia Chuhe had a close high school classmate, but as soon as they graduated, they tacitly stopped contacting each other, as if their genuine feelings from high school were all just pretense.
Everyone around me has best friends, close friends, and small groups.
Xia Chuhe, though seemingly sociable, was actually all alone.
She always did the job of smiling and watching others talk, occasionally chiming in.
Xia Chuhe's only connection to civilized society was her parents, and... the games she made herself.
But in the wasteland, Xia Chuhe felt very, very close to Lu Dangui, Wang Yan, Diao Jie, and Boss Xin.
Being so close, I felt a long-lost sense of belonging.
Xia Chuhe grabbed Lu Dangui and pulled her into his small group.
Xia Chuhe laughed loudly: "We made a killing today! I'll give you guys 10% of the net profit as your salaries!"
A total of 150 live poultry were sold for nearly 20 million, of which 10 million was the net profit generated by smugglers bidding for them.
Xia Chuhe is going to take out one million to pay the salaries of these four people.
After paying out salaries and settling the debts he owed others for core dungeon points, Xia Chuhe still had nearly ten million points left.
At this point, points finally became numbers, instead of money that needed to be carefully calculated and spent.
Xia Chuhe got cocky: "Boss, how many points does your car have?"
"Twenty million, you want one?" Xin Diao asked with a half-smile.
Xia Chuhe immediately shrank back, feeling embarrassed. He had just paid Boss Xin 500,000 yuan in salary and now he felt like a clown.
Xia Chuhe, displaying the sour grapes mentality, said: "What's so good about this car? It's so bulky and noisy, and it wastes a lot of fuel and electricity..."
Before he could finish speaking, the SUV suddenly stalled.
Xia Chuhe: "..."
∑q|?Д?|p
What a delicate car! It stops working as soon as you start talking to it!
Xin Diao was amused by Xia Chuhe's expression and laughed triumphantly, "Hahaha, I turned the sound off, the car's fine~"
The off-road vehicle roared off again.
This vehicle is actually a dual-purpose vehicle for both above-ground and underground use. It can run silently in underground passages or loudly in wasteland, with the sound mainly serving as a warning.
Off-road vehicles don't use fuel; they can be charged by blowing wind or basking in the sun. However, the sun is rarely seen in the wasteland, so they mainly rely on wind power for charging.
...
The group chatted along the way, and Xia Chuhe managed to get Wang Yan's home address.
This kind of useful tool should be well taken care of. It would be best to settle his family as well, so that this tool with a loyalty of 75% can work for you without any worries.
Xia Chuhe glanced at the follower's handbook; Wang Yan's loyalty level was now 80.
Making him do work and giving him positive feedback (money) is indeed the best way to boost the loyalty of a support character.
Of course, a large part of Xia Chuhe's desire to visit Wang Yan's family stemmed from his curiosity about the lives of the non-evolved individuals at the base.
However, Xin Diao's loyalty level remained at 50, without increasing at all.
Giving money to someone who doesn't lack it won't help. If you want to increase Boss Xin's loyalty, you need to approach it from other angles.
Xia Chuhe finally looked at Lu Danggui, who wasn't listed in the follower's handbook...
I just can't figure it out...
The group returned to base smoothly after a leisurely journey.
Xia Chuhe went straight to Wuxing Company, bought a lot of nutritional supplements and daily necessities, and also packed some dishes from Sister Li's Food Store.
These are all gifts prepared for Wang Yan's family.
Xia Chuhe didn't know what non-evolved individuals needed, but preparing some food, drinks, and supplies was definitely the right thing to do.
Xia Chuhe brought the gifts into the farm, asking questions along the way until he reached Wang Yan's house.
Non-evolved beings live in rows of houses that are even neater than duck sheds, with no difference whatsoever except for the house numbers.
