Chapter 58 Going Out to Find Supplies



3. Zhao Yong, you are in charge of the overall management of the two guard teams. Tomorrow, you need to keep track of the personnel guarding the community and select a few more people: firstly, a few who can drive and are physically capable; secondly, women who can do farm work are also acceptable. Divide them into two teams: one team will harvest the sweet potatoes and vegetables we saw in the fields today, and the other team will accompany us to search for other supplies. Also, the selection of guard team members is very important. Zhao Yong and Xiao Deng, you must pay attention to removing any bad apples immediately and recruiting good ones as well.

4. Sister, you are in charge of assembling the teaching staff, selecting a villa, decorating and furnishing it, dividing the students into classes, and setting up the curriculum. You are fully responsible for this. Just report what you need. You will not participate in planting or other manual labor.

5. Zixiang, you need to refine the management details, including a decentralized management approach, various job positions and compensation, including but not limited to management, teachers, logistics, security, etc. Currently, resources are limited, so unified allocation and management is best. However, once resources are abundant, we still need to allocate according to work, on a family-by-family basis; otherwise, the management pressure will be too great, and there will be risks.

Once sufficient supplies are available, there will be a gradual process. Most of the supplies will be centrally managed by the villa area for future wage payments, emergency relief, etc., while a portion will be distributed to individual households to ensure basic living standards. Afterwards, distribution will be entirely based on labor, with elderly people and children without the ability to work being assigned jobs and provided with assistance according to their specific circumstances. This is primarily to show everyone that no one can gain without working.

After listening to Ye Yunyi's suggestions, everyone added some more, and all the additional suggestions and ideas were shared with Wang Zixiang, with Xiao Fang providing assistance.

Finally, they moved the body to the open space of the villa for cremation. Although everyone was tired after a long day, no one missed the chance to watch the spectacle.

Flames soared into the sky, and everyone felt a surreal, unreal sensation. They had been huddled in their small courtyard for more than half a year, barely having enough to eat and living in constant fear. Now, they had something to look forward to, as if they had been brought back to life.

There are people patrolling at night, so everyone can sleep peacefully.

The next day, as arranged by Ye Yunyi, Zhao Yong and Xiao Deng had already selected the candidates.

The previous property management team, led by Xiao Deng, had 15 members remaining after the property manager, Gao Zhibing, fled. With the help of Wang Zixiang and Xiao Deng, Zhao Yong also selected 15 people, including Sun Weihua. The two security teams, totaling 30 people, were now formed.

In addition, we found 5 more people who own cars and know how to drive, and 20 more people who are physically strong and capable of working.

Their execution was excellent, which made Ye Yunyi very happy.

Everyone was excited and happy to hear that there were many supplies outside and that they were going to collect them.

Ye Yunyi also reminded everyone of the dangers they might encounter, and assured them that high risks would bring high rewards, and that going out was entirely voluntary.

No one backed down. Each team left two people to protect the safety of the community, and the rest set off.

Led by Ye Yunyi and with Zhao Yong bringing up the rear, many of them were going out for the first time. But seeing Ye Yunyi speeding away in her car ignited their fighting spirit, and they followed her. The people in the car went from being tense and uneasy to excited and surprised. They chatted and laughed, and they were no longer afraid of the zombies chasing them.

After walking about 6 kilometers, they arrived at the sweet potato field. Ye Yunyi and her group cleared away the zombies around the field, leaving 8 people as guards. The remaining 20 people and 5 drivers stayed behind, with Ye's father and Xiao Qin in charge.

Ye Yunyi set off with Zhao Yong and the rest of the guard team, while Sun Weihua drove his truck.

Ye Yunyi and her group went to a nearby store and collected seeds, kitchen utensils, and fertilizer. This was a rural area, so there were quite a few stores selling these items.

Then we went to the shopping mall, a place everyone had visited since the zombie virus outbreak stopped.

There were more than 20 people this time. Ye Yunyi planned to go through each floor. Many people had probably been here before, but based on his observations from his last visit, there were still plenty of supplies.

They roughly formulated a plan, and then proceeded upwards layer by layer, taking whatever supplies they could, with the main priority being personal safety.

Many people were participating in such an event for the first time. Ye Yunyi was rather conservative, and since everyone was almost on the same floor, they could look out for each other.

It was kind of a drill. Ye Yunyi and Zhao Yong continued to use ranged attacks, serving as the main force. The others also tried their best to fight, and there were indeed a few brave and skilled fighters among them. Whenever the team encountered danger, Ye Yunyi, Zhao Yong, and Xiao Deng would appear in time. Through this battle, the team's cohesion was strengthened, and they became even more grateful to, admired, and trusted Ye Yunyi, Zhao Yong, and Xiao Deng.

They searched up layer by layer and actually found quite a lot of supplies: clothes, shoes, daily necessities, food, cosmetics, perfumes, bedding, and some furniture.

They took everything they could carry and everything they could use. They carried boxes down the stairs, and stopped only at nightfall, when all the vehicles were completely full. Although everyone was dirty, everyone had a smile on their face.

Ye Yunyi and Zhao Yong were happy, but also felt a sense of heaviness. They would have to train harder every day afterward, as their combat capabilities were still too weak.

Back in the villa area, Ye's father, Xiaofang, and Liu Qingguo, along with several people who helped with cooking, were counting and filing the supplies.

Everyone was beaming with joy as Ye Yunyi and her team returned. They helped carry bags of fertilizer, seeds, kitchen utensils, rice, flour, clothes, shoes, and cosmetics; everyone's eyes lit up.

When Xiaofang was too busy, Ye Yunjuan and another teacher from the community, Fu Qianqian, also came over to help tidy up.

They didn't finish organizing until well past midnight. Liu Guoqing even moved in to live with them.

When they got home, Mr. Ye didn't complain of being tired, but he fell asleep while talking. After all, he was over 60 years old.

Ye Yunyi asked Zhao's father and Ye's father to work together and share the burden.

There's no way to help her until she finds someone trustworthy, and her family will have to suffer along with her.

Ye Yunyi hadn't cleared the horde of zombies at the entrance of the residential area. Since they had no problem entering and leaving, she wanted to leave a protective barrier.

The next day, the person who went out with them yesterday asked with great interest, "Are you going out again today? There are still some sweet potatoes, fruits, and vegetables around here that we haven't brought back yet."

Seeing their excitement, Ye Yunyi nodded and said, "Let's set off with the same group as yesterday, and be sure to be careful."

So everyone went with great enthusiasm. There were a lot of things to do at the moment, so we found Xiaofang an assistant to record everyone's work situation in addition to the supplies, so that the supplies could be distributed later.

Yesterday, a group of people who went to the supermarket with me saw that they had all set off, so I came over to ask if they were leaving too.

Ye Yunyi originally wanted to rest today and let everyone practice and get used to each other, but everyone's enthusiasm couldn't be dampened, so they only practiced for a morning. After lunch, they went to the home appliance market and gas station. Today, their goal was to buy solar panels, gasoline, diesel, and other supplies.

At the same time, I noticed that the better-quality vehicles were also driving back into the community.

This time, things didn't go as smoothly as at the shopping mall. Several people were injured because they encountered other people who were also out looking for supplies, and some friction ensued.

At the same time, they witnessed the other side's people being bitten to death by zombies, which finally eased their urgent desire to find supplies.

However, the harvest was not bad. There were 20 solar generators, several tanks of diesel and gasoline, and 6 cars to drive back.
