Chapter 450 Tianning Base
Hearing Ling Ran's words, those who were initially hesitant, seeing those who went early to enjoy the big steamed buns and secretly went to get more, all had red eyes.
Since he went, I'll go too.
They've all gone, so I'm even more determined to go.
We can't afford to suffer a loss.
So everyone at the base entrance, and even those inside, rushed out upon seeing this scene. Even the guards and registrars were drooling.
Seeing that no one was coming or going from the base, they couldn't resist the temptation and all went there.
At this moment, Pei Xiu and Zhou Hang were shouting through a megaphone: "Line up, line up! Anyone who dares to cut in line or mess around, don't blame me for being impolite."
Some people who wanted to cut in line didn't dare to after hearing this.
As for the kind of scene where people are deep in thought and there are too many people rushing to grab the food, there was no such thing as a situation where people were deep in thought and there was no such scene at all.
After all, nobody's stupid. This person can produce so many supplies in the apocalypse, which must be commensurate with their strength.
Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be dealt with without Ling Ran and the others even having to lift a finger.
They've finally found a generous benefactor; anyone who dares to cause trouble will be considered an enemy of all of them.
There weren't enough steamed buns, so they brought out baozi, fried dough sticks, and sandwiches as well. Finally, they finished distributing them. Some people wanted to line up for a second round, but Ling Ran refused, saying, "That's enough."
She was sitting to the side when they were lining up for food, with a mouthwatering pig lying at her feet. Now that she spoke, no one dared to say anything, and the shy ones all went back.
He smiled rather shamelessly and thanked them, saying, "Thank you for your generosity, sir. I'll definitely come again next time."
"Go! Go! Go."
Pei Xiu waved them away.
Everyone took the food and left.
Most people just eat it directly, unless you can hide it. If you can't hide it, others will snatch it away. They are not like Ling Ran; they don't have the strength to make others behave themselves.
Ling Ran and the others then tidied up and prepared to enter the base.
As soon as they saw them enter the base, those in line immediately gave up their places to let Ling Ran and the others pass first.
"Sirs, please go first."
"Come this way, sir. There's mud here, be careful not to step in it."
They were all incredibly attentive, and Ling Ran naturally knew what they wanted, but who doesn't like to hear nice things?
Just like the game companion services described in novels, what they provide is emotional value. Money can buy happiness, and that kind of happiness is unimaginable to the poor.
Ling Ran casually tossed a few packs of cigarettes he didn't need to the men who were trying to curry favor with him, and they immediately thanked him excitedly: "Thank you, sir! Please come in, sir."
"Sir, there's some dust on the edges of your shoes. Would you like me to wipe them off for you?"
When the others saw that Ling Ran had given such a generous reward so casually, they were filled with envy, jealousy, and frustration.
What's the use of saving face!
Can it be eaten as a meal?
Can a person give up money for the sake of their self-respect?
Depend on!
Missed it!
But it's okay, there's still a chance with this big spender at the Tianning base! I must perform well from now on!
Feeling the competitive looks from those around her as they vied for the job, Ling Ran was very satisfied.
That's how it should be done, roll it up.
Then she, as the beneficiary, would be even more comfortable.
As usual, they went through the entry process for the base. Ling Ran and the others had just finished registering and entered when the deputy manager of Tianning Base came over.
They didn't know Ling Ran personally; they had only heard that a wealthy man was giving alms at the base's entrance. Such a wealthy man must be powerful, and if they could be treated well and allowed to stay at the Tianning Base, it would undoubtedly be a very good thing for the base.
"Miss Ling, right? I've already heard about your good deed from my subordinates. A kind person like you deserves the respect of everyone at Tianning Base. I've already arranged accommodations for you and your team members. You can go and stay there directly."
Ling Ran looked at her, and it was the first time she had seen that the deputy manager of the base was a woman.
This shows that the other party's strength and methods are far beyond what is expected, which is admirable.
Moreover, this woman looked to be only around thirty years old, with a neat short haircut and features that, while not particularly refined, were quite pleasing to the eye.
Wearing black shorts and a T-shirt, her skin was dark and rough, probably from being in the sun every day, giving her a wild beauty.
"Who are you?"
She smiled and said, "I forgot to introduce myself. I am one of the deputy managers of Tianning Base. My name is Wu Shiyu."
"Shiyu? That's a nice name."
"Thank you, Miss Ling. Shall I take you to your place now?"
"Um."
Next, the group walked to their temporary accommodations. During this time, Ling Ran and the others learned a lot about the Tianning Base from Wu Shiyu.
It's not much different from other bases, except that the Tianning base is a bit tougher.
Recently, quite a few survivors have come from Shaanxi Province to seek refuge, but they all need to be quarantined for 24 hours before they can enter.
Since the base wasn't very strong, Wu Shiyu also gave a special introduction to the benefits of their Tianning base, which included some perks that ordinary ability users couldn't refuse.
Of course, it didn't work on Ling Ran and the others.
Finally, Wu Shiyu sincerely invited Ling Ran and the others to join the Tianning Base. Although she knew it was unlikely, what if it succeeded?
Upon arriving at the residence, it was a three-story self-built building, and judging from its age, it was clearly constructed after the apocalypse.
And there's a whole row of identical little buildings here.
Wu Shiyu explained, "These are all high-level ability users and distinguished guests from our base. Miss Ling, please feel free to stay here. If you have any complaints, please let me know, and I will make arrangements for you if I can."
"Thanks."
"You're welcome." Wu Shiyu smiled. "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. You know how to find me."
The method she described for finding her was that the building was cordoned off, and there were guards on duty at the entrance. If you wanted to find her, you just had to tell the guards.
Ling Ran nodded.
Just as Wu Shiyu was about to leave, Shen Nianshen called out to her, "Miss Wu, wait a moment."
"What's wrong?"
Shen Nianshen took out a box of chocolates and a pack of cigarettes from his spatial storage and handed them to her: "Thank you for showing me the way."
Wu Shiyu was taken aback for a moment, then generously accepted it and thanked Ling Ran with great tact, saying, "Thank you, Miss Ling."
The guard next to Wu Shiyu was very envious, thinking that he had also led the way. The next second, a bag of candy appeared in front of him: "A thank you gift."
"Thank you, Miss Ling." The guard took the bag and thanked her gratefully.
Wu Shiyu and the guards then left. After they had gone some distance, Su Yimo asked Shen Nianshen, "Why did you give cigarettes to a girl?"
"She smelled of cigarettes."
"But she might not necessarily smoke."
"In the post-apocalyptic world, cigarettes are as valuable as gold before the apocalypse. Even if she doesn't smoke them, she can still exchange them for a lot of supplies."
Chen Nian Shen gave him a cigarette, which was naturally something he had considered.
"All right."
When everyone entered the house, they found that the furniture inside was still very new, indicating that it hadn't been used much.
However, Shen Nianshen temporarily stored these things in his space and replaced them with items from his space. He would put these things back when he left.
