"Alright, alright, stop arguing and let's hear what Prince Zonghan has to say." Chen Jun raised his hand, and everyone shut up and stopped talking.
Zong Han glanced at them and then said, "Lies can be proven with facts to shut up the gossip. If it were true, why would people outside be so desperate to collect metal? The Shuofang base doesn't have the ability to create a god. Stop spreading alarmist rumors. Chen Jun went to Qingyuan in person, and Li Heng followed Jiang..." Zong Han glanced at Chen Jun.
"Jiang Zhi," Chen Jun reminded her.
"Yes, Jiang Zhifei is the only one suitable for the Bright Base."
"With such assistance, the Bright Base is determined to obtain it. It must belong to the Bright Base. Only in this way can we avoid worrying about food and survive in the long run."
As Zong Han spoke, he closed his eyes, as if he had developed a fondness for talent and was reluctant to part with it.
'Even if it means destruction, I can't let anyone else have it. I have a one-month deadline. If Jiang Zhi doesn't come within this month, I'll send someone to carry out her humane destruction.' Zong Han thought to himself.
Such an attitude undoubtedly earned him the admiring glances of his subordinates.
King Zonghan is truly a good leader who cares about the people. Only by following someone like him who is concerned about the base and the people can one live a good life.
Zong Han has now taken control of the situation.
Chen Jun, standing to the side, resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Was he stupid or were all these people stupid?
Zong Han was willing to eat excrement upside down for the sake of the people.
However, thanks to the reassurance given by Zong Han at the meeting, nothing happened at the base for the next two weeks.
"Boss Jiang, they say you're moving away, is that true? Where will we buy food then?"
"Yes, Mr. Jiang, please don't close your shop."
It's hard to imagine how people would live without Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi didn't answer; she just kept her head down and did what she was doing. She didn't speak, but someone else spoke for her.
"What's wrong? Did you all not survive before Boss Jiang?"
"That's right, that's right. Boss Jiang has her own freedom. She can go wherever she wants. It's none of your business."
...
The words were quite harsh.
Jiang Zhi didn't say much throughout the whole process, quickly finished making the last bit of money, and went back inside to cool off.
If she wants to leave, who can stop her?
The hearts of those who came to exchange grain were bleeding; Boss Jiang was a person, and a woman at that.
I heard she's been getting really close to people from the Bright Base lately. What's going on inside the Bright Base?
That's paradise for those with superpowers, and hell for ordinary people.
Jiang Zhi is a very powerful superhuman, and she will definitely choose to go to the Bright Base.
That goes without saying.
Who wouldn't want to live like a local tyrant?
Mr. Jiang isn't a saint or a god, without desires or wants.
Those ability users without families to support them also felt a longing for the Bright Base. However, most of the people there were accompanied by several or even a dozen ordinary people, destined to have no chance with the Bright Base.
Even if they can exchange for food in the future, they will probably still be considered inferior to the Bright Base.
That night, Jiang Zhi took down her signboard and burned it.
This stuff can't withstand the sun. After being exposed to the sun for several months, it crumbles into dust when you squeeze it.
If it needs to be used again in the future, it will have to be redrawn.
The pricing also needs to be changed; as food becomes increasingly precious, she has to raise prices.
As for the trip to the Bright Base, the daytime temperature will soon reach 70 or 80 degrees Celsius, and the plan needs to be completed before then.
She didn't want to end up like dried meat.
There wasn't much to tidy up in the basement, and Jiang Zhi didn't plan to drive; sometimes having a car outside would be even more inconvenient.
Whether before or after the apocalypse, maintaining a car is a hassle; it either consumes fuel or gas, and the risk of exposure is greater.
It's better to just carry a small bag and bring Wanfu (a brand of incense) to travel light.
Anyway, she won't stay in the Bright Base until the extreme cold.
Wearing wireless earphones, she played her favorite music. In the darkness, Jiang Zhi, with a bag of seeds in her backpack, a water bottle, and her eating utensils on her back, set off with Wanfu.
As for Li Heng, he had been counting down the days. Today was the agreed date. He kept an eye on Jiang Zhi's movements and only followed her after she left, carrying the things with him.
Just last night, Jiang Zhi sold off the last of her stored grain.
At first, he found it unbelievable, but then he realized that for Jiang Zhi, she didn't need to store food at all; she only needed to leave seeds.
Jiang Zhi traveled light, but he was different, carrying a lot of bags and packages.
When he arrived, slaves carried him, but he killed them and had to carry him himself.
It's impossible to just throw things away.
Li Heng had his own selfish motives, so he secretly went to check on Jiang Zhi's place, only to find that there was nothing there.
Did Jiang Zhi not experience winter before?
There wasn't even a blanket in the place where we lived.
Does she also have spatial abilities?
As soon as the idea came to him, Li Heng subconsciously rejected it.
Jiang Zhi could not possibly have a space.
Since the day I met her, she has only changed her clothes once. The ice silk long-sleeved shirt and trousers she is wearing now were changed many days ago.
Jiang Zhi also possesses ice-type superpowers; she can generate water simply by melting ice, making bathing and washing clothes a breeze.
Moreover, I've never seen Jiang Zhi take out anything else. Sometimes when she's hungry in the middle of the night, she cooks directly on a folding stove, and even the rice is freshly pounded.
The firewood was made from straw, rice straw, and dead branches.
Which space-type ability user has lived such a miserable life?
Jiang Zhi is extremely cautious in concealing her spatial abilities. She was able to live without any spatial ability in her previous life, and she can do the same in this life.
