A group of people who hadn't seen fruit in a long time were overjoyed in the sweltering summer heat. They picked up the fruit on the table to eat, but Jiang Zhi stopped them with a tree branch.
She looked at these greedy people with disdain and said, "What, the leader hasn't even arrived yet, and you're already making moves? Don't you even care about the leader?"
"You!" The man was about to lash out, but was stopped by the person next to him.
Zong Han had just reached the door when he heard Jiang Zhi defending him. This was the first time Jiang Zhi had given such a signal. Zong Han glanced at Jiang Wen, who was walking this way, and his vanity was greatly satisfied.
Standing beside her, Yang Meili smiled brightly and said, "It seems that Jiang Zhi is on the side of Prince Zong Han. You should go in and receive Jiang Zhi's homage."
Zong Han didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. Instead, he walked into the venue with his head held high. The venue was set up on a cement floor, which was actually the coolest place due to the temperature difference at night.
“The leader is here, you say a few words first.” Jiang Zhi gave him the center position.
Seeing how cooperative Jiang Zhi was, Zong Han trusted her even more.
This scene looks exactly like a pyramid scheme.
Jiang Wen entered later, but Zong Han seized the initiative. However, she was wary and felt that Jiang Zhi was not someone who would give in so easily; she must be up to some trick.
If her new favorite hadn't reminded her, she would have truly believed that Jiang Zhi was wholeheartedly submitting to the Bright Base.
"With Jiang Zhi, our Bright Base has an abundance of resources. Everyone should treat Jiang Zhi like a provider of food and clothing, and fulfill all her requests. I hereby declare that Jiang Zhi is the logistics strategist of our Bright Base. With her, we can achieve long-term development."
Even the dog didn't believe what Zong Han said. Wanfu sat at the entrance of the cave, looking at Zong Han's back with disdain. If his mother hadn't told him beforehand, he would have scratched him to death with one paw.
"Hahahahaha." Jiang Zhi burst into laughter, as if she had heard something funny.
"What is Boss Jiang laughing at?"
"Is it because you think the things the chief gave you are too cheap?"
“Of course not.” Jiang Zhi still had a smile on her face: “I just find it interesting, really very interesting.”
"I'm glad you like it, Mr. Jiang." Li Heng said awkwardly from the side.
Zong Han's words were indeed very funny; he was so embarrassed that he dug a three-foot hole in the ground.
Jiang Wen then launched into a sarcastic remark: "I thought you'd give Jiang Zhi some benefits, but this is all? You want Jiang Zhi to be your slave?"
Feeling hot-blooded after being exposed in public, Zong Han immediately said, "You woman, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute. What I can give Jiang Zhi is the respect of the entire base. What can you give her?"
"Hehe, what can I give? Of course, it's..." Jiang Wen stared at Zong Han, looking at the man she had been married to for many years. From the beginning, their marriage was a transaction. It's just that she values what she owns, and she unknowingly fell in love with him, which is why she was hurt by this man time and time again. Now he even dares to think of kicking her away. He's dreaming.
“Naturally, it’s the position of the base leader.” As soon as Jiang Wen said this, everyone present gasped.
"Jiang Wen, don't push your luck! I'm the leader of the base!" Zong Han roared.
Jiang Wen scoffed, "A leader who can't even provide supplies to the base members, do you deserve the title? From beginning to end, I've been the one providing supplies to the base members. After Jiang Zhi arrived, she was the one providing food. What have you provided? Playing with women all day? This vixen next to you!"
Zong Han scolded, "Haven't you slept with men? What are those people standing next to you?"
"Yes, but I have the ability, do you? If it weren't for my spatial ability, could you have established the Bright Base? I've owned half of the Bright Base from the beginning, so why should you be the leader? Just because you have dual abilities? Are your abilities stronger than Jiang Zhi's?"
Jiang Wen's move was brilliant.
This strategy kills two birds with one stone, pitting Jiang Zhi against Zong Han, a classic case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
"Alright, this is my grain exchange conference today. You're all arguing here. The fruits and food on this table have been sitting here for a long time. Everyone, eat first, and let's chat and cool off." Jiang Zhi said to the whole audience through a megaphone.
This was like a bucket of ice water, instantly extinguishing the anger between the two who were on the verge of exchanging blows.
Jiang Zhi easily extinguished the flames that Zong Han had just lit.
In the end times, money and power will never be as valuable as food.
This is a true depiction of the end times.
Even in the apocalypse, those who still engage in power struggles and scheming for profit are only courting their own destruction.
"Yes, yes, I've been wanting to eat this for a long time."
"Waaaaah, I haven't seen fruit in a year! This damn apocalypse, when will it end?"
"These apples, these bananas, and these sweet grapes—I wish I could eat them every day from now on."
When Zong Han had Jiang Wen's spatial dimension, he often ate fruit. Jiang Wen's dimension was a time-freezing space, which could preserve food. Since the two broke up, he hadn't enjoyed the taste of fruit anymore. Now, eating fresh fruit at Jiang Zhi's place, the anger he felt because of Jiang Wen had lessened.
He thought to himself that Jiang Zhi really couldn't die; she had to be used by him forever.
Zong Han distributed the wine he had brought, and everyone received a cup.
There were four or five hundred people present, all wolfing down their food, completely unaware that their homes were being raided. The ordinary people they had oppressed were slowly emptying the food stockpiled by these superhumans.
In fact, there are many superhumans among them who have a sense of justice, and they are secretly killing other superhumans who follow these base leaders.
They had long been fed up with these people's banditry.
While Jiang Zhi was enjoying a period of peace and prosperity, a quiet change was taking place on another side of the base.
Human nature is most vulnerable to the test of hunger.
They even found dried human tissue, some thighs and arms; they were truly horrific.
Jiang Zhi personally served Yang Meili two pieces of fruit. Yang Meili ate them slowly, then watched with a smile as these people met their end. Indeed, Jiang Zhi had set a trap; all the fruit was poisoned, a poison that would kill them instantly.
She has a large number of medicines in her space, especially some liquid medicines. Each one is fine when used individually and in the right dosage, but if they are mixed together, they become poison.
The key issue is that many of the liquids used are sweet, so when they're placed inside the fruit, you can't taste the sweetness at all.
As they ate, Jiang Zhi urged the fruit to ripen.
Even Jiang Wen couldn't resist eating several mangoes.
The sight of artificially ripened fruit certainly broadened their horizons.
In just half an hour, only a dozen or so of the four or five hundred people on the field remained. The poisoned people were in a daze and thought they were drunk from drinking.
"Hey, why are you all lying down? Wake up!"
"Ah, my head hurts so much, and my stomach feels terrible too, pfft—!" The man spat out a mouthful of blood and immediately lay motionless on the ground.
