Time goes back to the night two days ago.
A carnival was held in the city of S to celebrate that they had finally eliminated the zombies, including the evil zombie king.
Many Chinese warriors also joined in the revelry. The people of Sicheng treated them to their most precious food and the wine they had brewed over the past few years. The Chinese warriors, who hadn't tasted alcohol in a long time, were shocked. They were almost out of food, and these foreigners who were eating insects actually had a few barrels of wine hidden away? It might be low-quality, bitter beer, but it was still alcohol!
After confirming that the wine was fine and had nothing to do with the bugs, everyone started drinking it and had a great time.
"Come on, cheers! To our victory!"
"Because we can go home soon!"
"These damn days are finally over!"
They roared, excited and sad. The battle lasted for more than half a year. They finally completed the mission, suffered a lot and paid a heavy price for it. Now they can finally go home, but some of their companions can never go back.
They cried and laughed, and so did the people of S City, whether civilians or high-ranking leaders, who mourned for the dead and cheered for the new life.
The mayor of the city of Si, an old man with white hair, blue eyes, a high nose and deep eyes, a tall but weak body, who rarely shows up in public, was also present today. He came over one by one to thank these brave friends, toasting, shaking hands, and saying enough words of gratitude. Although he was chattering a lot, not many people could fully understand him.
Lin Cheng did not join in the carnival. He was packing his luggage in his room. To be honest, he didn't have much luggage, but over the past six months, Lin Man had sent him a lot of things, including clothes, letters, and the supposedly most fashionable combat shoes. He didn't plan to keep any of these and wanted to take them back. After sorting through the things, he actually found quite a few.
"Boss, why don't you go out and have fun? It's so lively outside. There's a bonfire and wine to drink. Those foreign girls are dancing and singing, shaking their hips and waists, and they don't even feel cold." Zhang Changming suddenly came in from outside and said with a smile.
Lin Cheng listened to the faint noise coming from outside and asked, "Why don't you go?"
"Those foreign girls are too enthusiastic. I can't handle it." Zhang Changming waved his hands, looking very vicissitudes of life.
You see, for the past six months, they've been dealing with these foreigners every day, and naturally, there are women among them. There's no shortage of women in the foreigners' own armed forces. They're all strong men, so naturally, they've captured the hearts of many women. If they're attracted to someone, it's easy to have a casual romance, but they don't like that kind of thing. First, they're afraid of delays, and second, there's the issue of infectious diseases.
With the lack of medical care and medicine these days, contracting an illness is a real hassle, not to mention the incurable nature of sexual problems. Psychics are relatively unaffected, rarely getting sick, but ordinary people are not. Especially considering this is a foreign country. If someone contracts a disease not found in China and brings it back, they'd be a criminal. And not everyone in their team has psychics. For the sake of fairness, Lin Cheng doesn't care about the rules of other teams. In short, no one from the base, no matter who they are, is allowed to engage in such mischief.
So more than 300 people came out of their group base - some of them sacrificed their lives, but now there are still more than 300 people. They all live a life of poverty, which is quite depressing, but everyone knows the seriousness of the matter. Especially after seeing some particularly "careless" guys in other bases who often change their bed partners, and there are really many cases of illness, they have become more honest.
The atmosphere is just great today, with people dancing and drinking. Those foreign girls are wearing so little even in this cold weather, they seem to be eager to use their fair bodies to thank the warriors. It's so depressing to see but not be able to eat. Zhang Changming is just out of sight, out of mind.
He quickly added, "But don't worry, boss. I've already told them not to get carried away and do anything rash." Then he sighed, "I wonder how far the family planning organization has come with their research. I wonder if they can find me a wife."
Lin Cheng paused while packing his things. Seeing his amorous expression, he found it a little funny: "Are you still thinking about this?"
"How can I not miss you? You said we worked so hard, leaving our hometown and risking our lives, how much reward can the base give us? I don't want anything else, just give me a wife, she doesn't have to be pretty, just someone who can live with me."
After all, he was his own brother. Lin Cheng thought about it and revealed the inside story to him: "There will be."
"ah?"
Lin Cheng said, "There are already newborns in China. This time, if anyone wants to get married and have children, the base will prioritize them." To put it bluntly, they'll all be given a wife and sent to live at the Peace Base for a year. It's said they've already been selected for the second round, along with those guarding the border.
Zhang Changming was stunned for a long time, and it took him a long time to chew on this sentence and understand: "So, that means, not only can I have a wife, but I can also have a son?!"
It is really hard to be sure about sons and daughters, and there is no guarantee that every couple can have children. It depends on the person.
Lin Cheng was thinking about the few simple statistics Lin Man had mentioned in the letter. Before he could say anything, Zhang Changming rushed over and asked, "Boss, is this true? Did the commander tell you?"
Their headmaster never mentioned this. After all, the communication was not very stable, and they had no time to talk about business, so how could Lin Zhongrong talk about something else? Lin Man did mention in a letter that her letters came with food once a month, and each time they were quite thick. No matter how busy Lin Cheng was or how tense the situation was, she would always have time to sit down and read the letters.
He quite liked this. Lin Man would tell him about the development of the Peace Base and many other things in his letters. The relaxed and joyful nature of their casual conversation always made him smile.
Of course, it would be better if you didn’t always ask him if he has an ideal partner and whether he should be on the lookout for other potential partners.
He did not answer, but asked Zhang Changming to tell everyone the news privately. By the way, when the base arranges marriages, it also gives priority to people who are healthy, especially those without infectious diseases, because women, especially high-quality women, are a rare resource. For the development of the base and human reproduction, they must try their best to match them with high-quality young people.
What defines quality? Consider age, strength, physique, family history of genetic diseases, and current health... This is the work of family planning organizations, and it's now a standard practice across the six bases.
Well, these are what Lin Man told him.
Zhang Changming followed the order and spread the news. In order to prevent other bases from hearing the secret, people were called back from the carnival. Everyone was still unhappy. They were dumbfounded when they heard the news. They followed him with fiery eyes and asked if it was true. They gathered together to discuss whether so-and-so had a partner, and whether they could choose their own partner, or whether the base would make a forced arrangement.
Anyway, everyone starts dreaming about a wonderful life with a wife, kids, and a hot family. Drinking? Dancing? Hot, busty foreign girls? Forget all that!
At the carnival outside in the square, people naturally discovered that the people from the group base had been called away. People from other bases felt a little strange, but no one took it to heart. Everyone knew that Lin Cheng was strict over their side.
"Captain Lin is really strict. He won't let anyone slack off today." Someone sighed, "Fortunately, our captains aren't so unkind."
"The most amazing thing is that they all listened to him so well, as if they had been brainwashed."
"Luckily we are not under his control."
"Yes, yes, drink, drink."
The captains felt very uncomfortable after hearing these discussions. Just look at Lin Cheng's majesty and status. The simplest thing is that when they are lining up on weekdays, he can make a formation of hundreds of people silent with just a glance. But when they look at themselves, they have to shout at each other. They are all captains, so why is there such a big difference?
It must be that the quality of the people they bring is not good enough.
On the side of the leaders of the city of Si, people surrounded the white-haired city lord and worriedly advised him to go back first. After all, the city lord was old and his health was getting worse. He was always pale and his hands and feet were cold. The wind was so strong tonight. He had to be careful not to fall ill. In the future, he would still have to rely on the city lord to lead them to a new life.
The city lord looked at the members leaving the base, squinted for a while, and a gleam flashed in his dim eyes. He asked someone to follow and see whether they left suddenly because they felt that they were not hospitable enough or if something had happened.
