In the past few days, there are obviously more people in the villa area. In addition to the staff who registered the house information a few days ago, there are also many people carrying luggage. Su Jin and others originally thought that they were the ones who started to transfer survivors in the shelter. After asking the staff, they found out that most of these were people with special abilities recruited by the shelter to build a base.
These people with special abilities are mainly earth and gold, supplemented by water, fire and strength. They also include many ordinary people who are willing to participate in the construction of the base and people who understand construction. They were all transferred here by Mayor Liang in order to build the base's walls first.
This is a big project, but Liang Wei is very confident. He is proud of China's construction speed. Although there is no electricity and supplies are scarce now, there are many more people with special abilities. Letting the earth-type people with special abilities dig the foundation and move stones is faster than using machines before the end of the world.
The posted recruitment information stated that anyone willing to participate in the base construction could enjoy a six-month rent reduction. During the construction process, those who presented proof could receive three free meals a day and four crystal cores. Those with special abilities could receive seven crystal cores and a year's rent reduction.
With such good conditions, many people in the shelter rushed to sign up. However, many people who had comfortable living conditions before the apocalypse scoffed at the offer. You have to know that they used to be high-income people. How could they be asked to work as bricklayers on a construction site?!
Seeing this, Liang Wei, Liang Jiuhui and others did not give any reminders. They could give various opportunities to those who tried hard to survive in the apocalypse, but they would not persuade those who still wanted to eat and drink for free.
That’s right, any smart person can see that this base construction is an opportunity.
Liang Wei had people compile lists of people who would participate in the base construction every day. In those lists, there were not only men, but also many women and even some students.
You have to know that there is limited housing in the base, and it is impossible for everyone to be allocated a ready-made house. Now those who are willing to work have already been included in the housing allocation list by Liang Wei. Of course, their subsequent performance still needs further investigation, but this has also screened out a large number of people.
"Going to dig the foundation in the west of the city? You actually thought of that. Do you know how hard it is on the construction site?"
A girl with long hair was scolding a young boy at the registration desk.
"But I'm an earth-type mutant, so it's my responsibility to build the base," the boy wanted to retort.
"It's up to you, go ahead, we're breaking up."
The girl with long hair shook her hair angrily and turned to leave, but unfortunately her hair had not been washed for many days, so she couldn't shake it even if she wanted to.
The boy grabbed the girl's arm and tried to keep her, but she impatiently shook his hand off and said, "An earth-type mutant like you can only dig and move bricks. I've had enough of you. You reek of dirt. Let go!"
“…”
The earth-type psychics present were stunned for a moment after hearing this. Some even sniffed their clothes, but there was no earthy smell at all...
Seeing the girl walk away, the boy smiled awkwardly, but still walked resolutely to the registration office, showed and proved his earth-related ability to the person there, and then filled out the registration form.
"Brother, it's time to change your girlfriend"
Shao Zian smiled as he looked at the boy filling out the form and said that he was in charge of administration, so he would naturally take a look at the registration this time. He just happened to have witnessed the scene just now, and he thought that this registration office was quite interesting.
"She, she is still a little naive, but she will understand it later."
The boy smiled shyly and leaned over to write his name on the table: Xia Mufei.
Shao Zian was about to say something when a slender hand appeared on the pile of brand new registration forms in front of him. The hand with distinct joints looked very familiar. Shao Zian looked up and was stunned.
"I sign up"
A cool and pleasant male voice was heard, and even Xia Mufei, who was filling out a form, couldn't help but look up.
Shao Zian calmed the turmoil in his heart and asked as usual, "A person with superpowers?"
"No, I don't have any special powers," the man replied.
Shao Zian nodded, handed him a registration form for ordinary citizens, and said, "Building the base will be very hard. Have you really thought it through?"
"I've thought it through, don't worry"
The man spoke the last two words very softly, and they were not noticeable in the noisy registration office, and no one noticed. However, Shao Zian heard them. He nodded slightly and wanted to say something else, but he held back.
He took a look at the form filled out by the man, and the name column was filled in: Xia Ying.
…
Shao Zian couldn't help laughing. It seemed that even the name was thought up on the spur of the moment?
"Your last name is also Xia, we have the same last name."
Xia Mufei had also filled out the form before, and when he handed it in, he accidentally glanced at Xia Ying's name.
"Well, hello," the man greeted with a smile as a response.
Xia Mufei looked at the man in front of him, a little dazed, because the man in front of him was so handsome, like a male celebrity. He had only seen such a face on the idle screen of his girlfriend's mobile phone before.
But Xia Mufei smiled again and chatted with the man enthusiastically, speaking like a good brother.
Shao Zian looked at the two people walking back while chatting, shook his head and smiled helplessly, then picked up the pen and filled in the two words "qualified" in a flamboyant manner in the review comments section on the two registration forms.
Base construction? Let him go and relax.
"Manager Shao, it's time for the meeting," Peng Qi ran over to remind him. He still had to guard the door after everyone gathered.
"Okay, thank you. I'll be right there."
Shao Zian put the form away and walked towards the meeting room.
In the conference room, Liang Wei sat at the top, next to him were Liang Jiuhui and Li Haochu. Everyone had been very busy these days because of the base construction, and even the time for the meeting had to be squeezed out.
"What? Jiuhui will go there tomorrow?"
Li Haochu asked in surprise. He originally thought that after the last hijacking incident, these two people would pay more attention to their own safety, but now it seems that the incident did not attract the attention of these two people at all.
"Base construction is urgent and cannot be delayed."
Liang Jiuhui said that seeing that supplies are becoming increasingly scarce, the sooner the base can be stabilized, the sooner it can get back on track.
Li Haochu nodded. Liang Jiuhui was right, and they were indeed lacking a commander at the moment.
"I will go there tomorrow with the people I recruited these days. Zi'an, please prepare the list for me later," said Liang Jiuhui.
“Okay, I’ll count it right away.”
