At night, Su Jin took advantage of the inky darkness and the crowded crowd to walk to the top of the city wall, and then gave birth to a carnivorous plant in the corner. Seeing that the carnivorous plant quickly began to devour the zombies, Su Jin walked out again with his head lowered.
The zombie tide in City D is still continuing. Yao Rui suggested finding the base's food warehouse and getting the base canteen up and running again, providing free dinner for those psychics who have exhausted their physical strength and superpowers.
This action deeply moved the survivors who had been without food for a long time, and Yao Rui's voice became louder and louder without them realizing it.
What made Yao Rui and the others even more angry was that a lot of the food in the granary had already gone moldy, and a lot of the meat from the mutant animals that Captain Xing had hunted in the past had also rotted in several broken refrigerators...
Looking at the moldy food, many people's eyes were red. Those people would rather let the food go bad than sell it to people who were about to starve to death.
If these grains had been made into food before, how many lives could have been saved!
"Don't be sad, everyone. We still have some food here. After the zombie wave passes, we can exchange it for some food from Xiaohong. At least we can get through this winter. When spring comes, we will be self-reliant, hunting mutant animals and developing our base. Xiaohong also said that they will come to sell supplies from time to time. We just need to kill zombies and save crystal cores."
Yao Rui stood in front and spoke to everyone. She took advantage of the recovery period after her superpowers were exhausted to chat with Zhang Xiaohong and others. It turned out that Zhang Xiaohong and others were a group of traveling food suppliers who would collect leftover food from all over the place and then resell it to the survivors in various bases. This made her very envious.
But she also understood that although these people sounded free and had enough supplies, they must be a very strong team, and not everyone could do it.
"Really? Xiaohong and the others will come again in the future?"
"That's great, their supplies are all reasonably priced."
"Yes, we are saved!"
Seeing that everyone was no longer sad about the granary incident, Yao Rui also smiled.
The zombie tide in City D did not last long and was completely resolved in the afternoon of the next day. Su Jin also took back the carnivorous plant early in the morning before dawn.
Xiao Cui, who had eaten zombies all night, expressed satisfaction. Although there was only one carnivorous plant for it to control, it also devoured thousands of zombies in the dark.
And someone discovered that Yuan Hongying, who had been tied to the city wall, had escaped...
Although the close associates of the Zhang and Yuan families were still there, Yuan Hongying's position was empty, leaving behind a pile of cut ropes.
"Run away?"
After hearing this, Kong Shangjie was so angry that he walked back and forth several times. Yao Rui even said that after the zombie tide was over, she would kill him to vent the public anger, but he actually ran away?
"No problem. He has no special abilities or weapons, and there's no place for him in the base. It's very likely that he was rescued by someone."
Yao Rui analyzed that the so-called Colonel Yuan was actually just a paper tiger. The funny thing was that no one had ever exposed him.
"You can't just let him get away. I haven't beaten him up yet."
Dayu said angrily that she couldn't get over the spoiled food.
"Whether he's alive or dead, it won't cause any trouble. Let's just move on!"
Yao Rui patted Dayu. The most important thing now was not Yuan Hongying, but the reconstruction of the base in City D after the zombie tide.
In addition to the spoiled food and meat, there is still some edible food in the base warehouse.
But these were far from enough for the people in the base to survive the winter. Fortunately, they found a large number of crystal cores at the residences of Zhang Anguo and Yuan Hongying. Even the homes of their close associates stored a large number of crystal cores.
The total number of those crystal cores actually reached 500,000. Adding on the crystal cores obtained from the receding zombie tide, they now had almost 600,000 crystal cores!
"Xiaohong probably doesn't have so many supplies anymore, right?"
Zhao Le said as he looked at these crystal cores.
"We don't just need food, we also need warm clothes and blankets."
Yao Rui looked at the increasingly gloomy weather recently and couldn't help but worry about this winter. The weather was getting colder and colder. Although it was cold at this time before, it was not to the point where water would freeze. But now...
In the northernmost courtyard of the base, Su Jin and his team began to busily sell supplies again.
There were still many people coming to buy supplies. Although many people were still hungry, Li Xiuying and Lin Yunguo could both feel that the atmosphere of despair and sadness that had previously shrouded the base was no longer there.
Instead, there was a lively atmosphere of people chatting with each other and expressing their hopes for the future of the base.
The base also elected the next base director through an election. Unsurprisingly, the name Yao Rui was written on a piece of paper by the vast majority of people and handed it in.
Now everyone understands that in the apocalypse, no matter what a person did before the apocalypse, as long as he works wholeheartedly for the people of the base, he is qualified to be elected as the base director. Moreover, Yao Rui's ability is not weak. After surviving this zombie tide, she has become one of the best level five fire-type ability users in the base.
If she is not elected, who else is qualified to be elected?
After Yao Rui finished dealing with the matters at the base warehouse, the first thing she did was to go to the North Courtyard to find Zhang Xiaohong and her group.
Zhang Xiaohong and the others are not from the D City base, and they will leave D City in a few days.
Thinking of the contributions of several people to the base during the zombie tide, Yao Rui did not put on any airs. She just acted as a customer who wanted to buy supplies and put forward the list of supplies they had discussed.
Su Jin took the list filled with the names of the supplies, smiled and said, "Okay, I have all these things in my space. After we decide on the price, I will give you the price list."
"Really?! Xiaohong, you have them all!"
Kong Shangjie jumped up. There was a list of hundreds of supplies on it!
"I've traveled extensively, and my family was in business before the apocalypse. My spatial ability awakened early, so naturally I had the best timing, location, and people."
Su Jin shrugged and explained in a normal tone.
Yao Rui nodded, expressing her understanding. "My family was a wholesaler before the apocalypse, and I took advantage of that to stockpile a large amount of supplies. It's a pity..."
When talking about her dark history, Yao Rui's originally gentle face became fierce again.
It’s best not to let her meet that guy named Tang again!
"Supplies are important, but it also depends on how people use them. Even if some people get a few supplies by luck, it's not easy to survive in this apocalypse for a long time."
Su Jin said in a good mood, with so many supplies on the list, it must be at least 200,000 crystal cores, right?
