"Well, we do have some plans that require hiring staff, but the project hasn't been put on the schedule yet."
Shi Jiu thought of the last time Wei Qu lurked in the Longhua base and finally dealt a fatal blow to Sun Hao. However, at that time she also guessed that the two of them might have some hidden hatred. In addition, Sun Hao came to harass her again and again, so she let him make his own plan. Anyway, she just wanted him to come to her.
But nothing happened in the Anhe base. No one disturbed her, nor did they do anything evil. Yan Yue was the son of the base leader, so he didn't look like someone who would help her.
But this opportunity is rare. If we recruit Yan Yue and let him return to the base, we can make relevant deployments.
Now there is only Anhe Base left in City B. If the survivors there are living well, she won't think about it. If not, she can get information through Yan Yue and make plans.
Don’t waste free labor.
"Mr. Yan, if you really want to come to us, I can give you a chance. Are you willing?" Shi Jiu did not start recruiting immediately, but asked about the specific matters first.
Yan Yue originally thought that because of his identity, the boss would most likely refuse, but he didn't expect there to be a sudden turn of events.
"I'd love to, boss. What do you want me to do?" Yan Yue had no reason to disagree. "But I might not be able to start work right away."
He raised his hand and shook the ring on his finger. He still had to take it back.
But I won’t leave the ring to the old man, as he wants to keep it for himself. Leaving those bracelets for them will be enough.
"The villa can hire you as a non-staff employee because your job location is not in the villa."
After Shi Jiu explained the specific work content to him, Yan Yue immediately agreed after listening. He swept away his previous decadence and strode towards Yan Ping and others who were sitting not far away with high spirits.
"Let's go, the supplies have been bought, let's hurry back to the base."
Yan Ping squinted his eyes and looked at Yan Yue carefully, "What did the boss say to you just now?"
Yan Yue's mood was no longer as depressed and upset as it was in the morning. He no longer intended to desire things that he had never had.
How could Yan Yue possibly tell Yan Ping when he heard his question?
"Nothing, I just asked the boss if there will be any new products later." He evaded the question vaguely. "Let's go, don't you really want to leave?"
Yan Ping didn't feel anything was wrong, so he ordered the entire team to pack up their things and prepare to return to base.
But where he couldn't see, many people were cleaning up and quietly discussing the place.
"Leaving so soon? Didn't you say you wanted something?"
"I don't know. It's really comfortable here. I even went to take a look at the apartment in the back this morning. Although it's much smaller than the building on our base, it looks very cozy."
"The supermarkets here are the best. They sell a lot of things, and they don't fight over things. They're really big players!"
“If only I could live here…”
Finally, someone sighed and was immediately bumped by the person next to them.
The man who reacted was also scared and broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly explained, "But only when I return to the base do I feel at home. It's better to be at home!"
But his words have already entered the hearts of many people and rolled over in their minds many times.
The team was assembled quickly. When Yan Yue stepped out of the door, he looked back at Shi Jiu, thinking about the task he had just been assigned.
He will definitely do it well!
Shi Jiu was watching the backs of Yan Yue and his group as they left, and noticed an old man following him. She touched her chin and wondered: Do the leaders nowadays like to come over to her to investigate?
Qin Lou looked over the work she assigned to Yan Yue and asked, "Is he really trustworthy?"
Shi Jiu glanced at the task he had written and said, "Don't worry, it's a path after all, nothing will go wrong."
Shi Jiu knew that Qin Lou was only worried about whether Yan Yue would be a double agent and come to get information, but with the system in place, even if he really had that idea, he would not succeed.
"What did you want to say when you came here just now?" Shi Jiu thought of what happened before, it seemed like... that new guest?
Qin Lou found out Yin Xue's movement trajectory, and the membership card background can record where he went in which time period.
"He's been looking around everywhere he can, spending the longest time in the supermarket. Now he's back in his room to rest. We can't tell what his purpose is."
Shi Jiu took a look and saw that he only bought a mobile phone. Thinking of the weapons on him, he asked, "Xiao Qin, do you think he came in to check on the situation in City B?"
The electronic map only showed the scope of City B, and the only areas of the map that could be lit up were the mountain villa and the villa area, two places she had been to before.
Oh, and there's also a round-trip route. As for why she knew there was only one base left, it was because the current surviving base in City B was directly displayed in the upper right corner of the map.
Only Anhe Base remains.
She knew nothing about the environment or specific conditions outside City B, and she couldn't risk leaving the villa without systematic protection unless she could expand the villa beyond the area of City B.
Qin Lou shook his head. He hadn't been out to see the outside world since the end of the world, but... he could do some research.
"Maybe we can put a questionnaire on mobile phones and give away some things randomly, so that we can get to know more through the guests." Qin Lou suggested.
Shi Jiu thought about it and decided that this was a feasible solution.
So, she used the tablet to set up the questionnaire, put it into the information, and waited for every guest in the villa to fill in the form.
Yin Xue, who was hiding in the big bunk bed, took out the walkie-talkie and was about to talk to the captain when a "ding-dong" sound came from the phone that had just been activated.
Any news? He picked it up and clicked on it to take a closer look, only to find that it contained only some simple questions.
For example, where are you originally from? Which base did you come from? Do you know the base in City B after the apocalypse? Have you been to places other than City B after the apocalypse? Describe the places you have visited, etc.
Scrolling to the end, there is a line of small words reminding you to answer the questions honestly. There are corresponding testing tools in the villa to determine the accuracy of the answers, and a family gift package will be randomly drawn from the questionnaire.
After seeing this, Yin Xue looked a little strange. He had just come in and received such a message. It was hard not to think too much.
But now is not the time to think about these things.
The intercom was quickly connected, and with a buzzing sound, the person on the other end came straight to the point, "Yin Xue, how are things going over there?"
"Captain, I entered a place called Sifang Villa. It's not a shelter, nor is it a base here. They sell almost everything there. More importantly, they have arable land and clean water!"
The last two pieces of news were the highlight. After hearing them, the person on the other end even held his breath for a few seconds. "Are you telling the truth?"
There was disbelief in his tone.
"Of course! But this place isn't like an ordinary shelter at all. Everything is quite complete, like a hotel. Oh, and they even sell cell phones that are as thin as a piece of paper."
Then he recounted everything he had seen. The person opposite had already placed the walkie-talkie in the center of the big table, and a large group of expert researchers around him were listening carefully to what he said.
After listening to Yin Xue's description, everyone fell into deep thought. Why did what Yin Xue said seem to be from a different world from theirs?
Captain Yin Xue was also surprised at first, and even thought that there might be a way to solve the difficulties encountered by the shelter. But after listening, he only had one idea in his mind.
Yin Xue...could he be tied up?
But he couldn't say this directly, because who knew if someone was looking at him from the opposite side. After Yin Xue finally finished speaking, he thought about it again and again and spoke hesitantly.
"You've only found this one place? Is it... what kind of villa? What about the other bases?"
"That's all I've seen so far, and I'm temporarily in it now."
"Then, be careful and look for another base. Once you find another one, contact me."
Although Yin Xue didn't quite understand why he had to go find it, he believed that if he used his special abilities properly, there shouldn't be any major problems.
So he decided to have a meal in the restaurant and then go out to carry out the mission.
A City Shelter, Round Table
After Yin Xue's captain turned off the intercom, the entire table fell silent.
"I... I suspect that Yin Xue was kidnapped, or he encountered a zombie with psychic powers and was bewitched..." In the end, it was Yin Xue's captain who stood up.
They had also seen zombies with special powers in City A recently, but fortunately they were of relatively low level and were dealt with on the spot.
"Can't Yin Xue's ability block zombies? What if what he said is true?" Soon, scholars who disagreed with this conclusion jumped out, and the round table quickly split into two camps.
One side supports that what Yin Xue encountered was real, which they had not discovered and it is very likely to be a turning point for resolving this crisis.
On the other hand, it is natural to think that Yin Xue has encountered unsolvable troubles and is forced to tell such lies, so he may want to lure them in and catch them all in one fell swoop.
The two sides were arguing so fiercely that they forgot for a moment that the most dangerous Yin Xue was still in City B.
Just when they were arguing the most fiercely, a voice came from above.
"Alright, let him find the so-called base and see if he can contact us. If there's no problem with the communication, why don't we send someone in to investigate? As long as there's a glimmer of hope, it's worth exploring."
As soon as this voice came out, the round table immediately became quiet. After a long time, everyone silently agreed to this method, but secretly, they were all calculating the possibility of success/failure of this matter.
Yin Xue lay in the big bunk for an hour or so, completely unaware that the shelter had already been in an uproar because of what he said, and then he went to the restaurant to eat comfortably.
He quickly ordered a set meal for 15 crystal cores. When more people came to Qinlou, he quietly increased the consumption of the restaurant. Of course, the amount of food was also increased accordingly.
Yin Xue grabbed a big chicken leg with his washed hands and took a bite. The tender and juicy chicken leg meat burst in his mouth, bringing supreme enjoyment to his taste buds.
It’s a big chicken drumstick! He hasn’t eaten it for a long time!
No! It should be said that he hasn't had a normal meal for a long time!
Yin Xue looked at the sumptuous lunch in front of him and suddenly felt guilty towards his comrades who were still outside.
Just when he was feeling both excited and sad, the surge of supernatural power in his body directly turned all his emotions into excitement.
