Of course, Hou Xuan and Su Qing would not treat them wholeheartedly. The Dawn Base is more like a company than a shelter.
In the company, Hou Xuan is the big boss, Su Qing is the second boss, and the rest are employees. The collected materials are the company's profit.
When there are good things, Hou Xuan picks them first, and then Su Qing picks them. Most of the remaining things are saved as surplus reserves, and a small part is distributed to employees as salaries.
Ordinary people who were fed to mutant birds were employees who could not provide value to the company and were laid off.
So for people with special abilities, they just changed the place where they work, but compared to before the end of the world, they are really "risking their lives" when they work now.
Will workers risk their lives for the boss's benefit? No, so when Hou Xuan said this, everyone chose to play dead.
In the past, when the zombies had not evolved, they could still pretend, it was not a big deal anyway, but now the zombies' agility has greatly increased, and there are mutant birds circling in the sky ready to attack at any time. There is no need for them to risk their lives just to make a good impression on their leader.
Don't forget, the boss is not a good person. He just used ordinary people to feed birds an hour ago. If an emergency occurs while clearing the road, there is no guarantee that he will not be abandoned.
Hou Xuan was furious. "If you're still unwilling to take action, then don't stay in my base. My base is too small to accommodate a bunch of you."
He? Thinking of Hou Xuan's promise to him, he quickly said, "Don't worry, Boss. I'll go clean up the vehicles ahead and we'll be able to set off again soon."
Hou Xuan nodded and sighed, "You are really diligent. I was right about you."
Facts have proved that as long as you are willing to work, there will be endless things to do. He? did not expect that from the moment he got off the bus, he would never have the chance to get on again.
There was no other reason. There were too many abandoned vehicles on the road and one had to be cleared almost every ten meters. As time went by, He?'s face became uglier and uglier.
"He?, the wheel is entangled by mutant plants, please clean it up."
"Hey, there are zombies crawling through our windows. Kill them and give us the crystal cores."
"Hey! The mutant birds are coming! Hurry and lead them away! Don't let them overturn the car."
He took a deep breath and said, "Boss, my powers are almost gone. I may not be a match for the mutant bird. Please let someone else take over."
Hou Xuan looked at him with a complicated expression and said accusingly, "It seems I misjudged you. You are no different from everyone else. You should think carefully about what I promised you."
He?'s face looked grim. Thinking about how much work he had already done, he decided to just endure it a little longer. He had to get the position.
So he pulled the corners of his mouth, said with a forced smile: "Boss, you misunderstood me. I meant that I could ask other people to help."
Didn't Hou Xuan know? But he couldn't do anything about it. He didn't want to go out either, so he just pretended he didn't hear anything and didn't send anyone down to help.
When the mutant bird came, He wanted to open the car door and hide in it for a while, but Hou Xuan locked the car door. Seeing He's incredulous expression, he told the driver to drive away quickly.
He? Just fed the mutant bird like that.
For the following time, the entire team was silent. When they needed to go down and clean up the abandoned vehicles again, no one showed any intention of getting off.
Hou Xuan was already furious. He said in a commanding tone, "Team One, go down and clean up the zombies and abandoned vehicles. Then Team Two, and so on."
One team didn't move. The captain whispered, "Boss, there are zombies and mutant plants rampant outside. Only five of us are not enough. I suggest that everyone get off the car and clean up together so that we can look after each other."
"I agree. If we need to clean up, we should all do it together."
Hou Xuan had no choice but to get out of the car with everyone else.
Su Qing frowned tightly. It would not do if people were not united. Hou Xuan had to establish his prestige, but how?
Now, the food that every mutant gets every day is fixed: a bottle of purified water, half a pound of rice or noodles, and a can of food.
Perhaps she could propose to reduce the food for the psychics by half, and only get the remaining food after completing the corresponding tasks, which could be regarded as a performance bonus, so that everyone would be motivated.
The group walked south and passed by a chicken farm. They were chased by chickens that had turned into zombies all the way and lost two more people.
After finally reaching the food factory, everyone worked together to clear out the zombies inside, but found nothing...
Hou Xuan was very angry. He had invested his time and energy, and even the lives of three employees. Just when he was about to make money, you told me that the project he invested in didn't exist at all?
He roared without caring about his image: "How did you get the news? I asked you about your things. Where is your stuff?"
Luo Li and Wei Tian, the psychics in charge of the investigation, remained calm. "When we came here yesterday, the food factory had wafer biscuits, mooncakes, and well-packaged braised chicken wings. We even took a few back with us."
"Okay, so you're still hoarding food!" Su Qing said sternly, "The base doesn't allow private food storage. Everyone's food must be handed in and redistributed. This month's allocation for your family is gone."
"Why?" Wei Tian was unconvinced. "We got these things on our own, not with the team. Why should you ask me to hand them over?"
Su Qing said righteously, "Just because you are from the Dawn Base, and just because you have family members who haven't awakened their abilities, they all need supplies from the base."
Luo Li retorted, "We just joined the base, but we didn't sell ourselves to it. We've already completed the mission assigned to us by the base, so the base should allocate supplies to us. Have you ever seen anyone give their extra income to the company?"
"That's just far-fetched talk!" Su Qing said, "We're a base, not a company. Don't bring your pre-apocalyptic worker mentality with you to the base. You'll never be able to be a leader if you do."
"Su Qing is right." Hou Xuan said, "I'll fine you seven days of supplies as a lesson."
Luo Li and Wei Tian were very angry. It would have been better if they had gone with the military district. At least they wouldn't have to live such a miserable life. The military district didn't allow them to kill zombies, so he killed them secretly. Who could sentence him?

In City C, the system, disguised as a fox, was eating braised chicken wings with gusto.
[Host, these chicken wings are good. Please use the infinite copy cheat to copy more and bring them to me to eat in other planes later.]
Yun Yuan glanced at it and asked, "Where did you get your chicken wings?"
The little fox smiled slyly: [I snatched it from the heroine. Wasn't she going to collect supplies? I put all the supplies into the space before her.]
