Chapter 293
Hua Yang released the six people who had been stored in the space, and together with the 50 new members of the team, let them live in the villa that was originally inside the isolation wall of the safe base.
Including Yuemao, who was also arranged there by Huayang.
When fifty newcomers first entered the villa area, they thought they could join the Hua Yang team's hunting operations outside, but they did not expect that they were actually sent to Villa Area No. 2 to clean up the community environment.
They originally thought that they could have three meals a day for free, and it didn't matter if they had to sweep the streets. But what they didn't expect was that the so-called sweeping work not only required cleaning the streets and various public places in the community, but also cleaning every villa in the villa area inside and out.
Now some people couldn't help it.
Although they were ordinary people without special powers, such a work intensity was simply a physical exploitation job. Who could endure it? Especially when the person supervising their work was holding a notebook to record the workload of each of them, and lunch distribution was completely based on the workload.
After Lu Zhen's death, the newcomers he had originally arranged into the Hua Yang team lost their backing, dared not speak out, and no longer had the intention to make trouble and get information. The environment in the villa area was much better than the base outside, which was something they had never expected.
The lunch was distributed according to work, and the minimum was a bowl of white rice. The highest configuration included two meat dishes, one vegetable dish and a soup, as well as a bright red tomato.
Wang Dali looked at the food and fruits in his hands, and suddenly tears welled up in his eyes. He cleaned the first floor of a villa and the yard outside the villa in one morning. His sister was only ten years old and had little strength, but she also cooperated with him to clean the yard and wipe the furniture in the villa. In the end, she was allocated a bowl of white rice and a vegetarian dish.
Wang Dali looked at the food in his sister's hand and gave her a lot of food from his lunch box. They both ate carefully, one bite at a time, and each ate half of the tomato.
Seeing Wang Dali eating tomatoes, the others' eyes turned red with jealousy. They hadn't had a full meal for nearly two months, let alone fruit. They had almost forgotten the taste of fruit. So everyone worked very hard in the afternoon, looking forward to having meat and fruit in the evening meal.
Then in the evening, when everyone was waiting for the food to arrive with aching backs, they were told that the person who cleaned the slowest among them would have to leave the villa area and return to his original residence.
The supervisors for that day were Meng Yi and Wu Shuang. Originally, they had no time to supervise everyone's work, but Wu Shuang had the bee colony given by Hua Yang, and he could communicate with them with his mental power.
Although the bee colony is large, it can monitor everyone's movements from the air. Wu Shuang knows clearly who works hard and who cuts corners and slacks off.
The person who was expelled was very unconvinced at first. When Wu Shuang found out that he had been lazy and dozed off for more than two hours in the afternoon, and that the road he cleaned had been cleaned by someone else, and that the interior of the villa had not been touched at all, he lowered his head in shame and did not dare to look up at everyone.
"I'm sure you all know our recruitment conditions. Who in this world dares to guarantee you three meals a day? Everyone is hungry, so how can we have extra food for you? Our team is like this. The more you work, the more you get. You can exchange food and water with your own abilities, and naturally other resources will not be lacking. If someone among you awakens superpowers, our boss may even provide you with crystal cores that are enough to upgrade you to advanced superpowers for free. Do you think this kind of labor intensity is tiring? And you are still lazy? Most of you came here to escape disasters. What was your life like before? Don't you have any idea of the average life?"
Seeing the man who was driven away looking back every few steps with a look of regret on his face, Meng Yi shouted loudly, "Don't even think about hiding in a villa or a public place. If you don't leave obediently, you know what will happen to you."
Wu Shuang waved his hand, and a group of worker bees as big as heads flew towards the man's back. Less than half a minute later, the man's miserable screams rang out, scaring everyone present so much that they got goose bumps.
"Don't panic, these bees won't attack you, don't worry!"
"Starting tomorrow, the one among you who performs the best every day will receive daily fruit and have the opportunity to join the hunting team and go out with the superpowers to kill zombies."
Meng Yi's words did not cause much commotion in the team. After all, the 49 people at this time were all ordinary people. The fear of zombies and the unbearable hunger made them just want to live a good life. It would be better to leave the hunting of zombies to the superpowers. If they went, the possibility of death was high, and the possibility of becoming zombies was even higher!
But just when everyone was losing interest, a rough and honest voice came out from the crowd of 49 people.
"Um, big brother, if you join the hunting team, will you get free food?"
Meng Yi laughed, "Of course there is, and there is only more, not the most."
"Well, okay, I want to join! I did the most cleaning today, I wonder if I can join right away?" Wang Dali looked at Meng Yi with a fierce look in his eyes. He was about the same height as Meng Yi, and spoke with a northeastern accent, which was a bit funny.
"Today I am here to tell you about the rules. Of course, those who perform well today will also be included in the hunting team's inspection range. You don't have to worry."
Wang Dali grinned happily, holding his sister Wang Xiaomi's hand and almost crying with emotion. He was almost starving after days of hunger. Since the death of the base leader Situ Mao, he and his sister had no basic food.
Every day he would take his younger sister to a place not far from the base to pick up some expired leftover food.
My younger sister Wang Xiaomi has become so thin that her bones are just skin and bones. If this continues, I'm afraid both of them will die in the end of the world.
But when they were starving, they saw the recruitment notice posted by Hua Yang outside the isolation wall. For them, nothing else mattered. When he saw the words "three meals a day", he immediately pulled his sister to sign up.
He was born with great strength. Perhaps it was because God gave him too much strength and took away his wisdom. Whether before or after the end of the world, he could only do some physical work that did not require thinking, and he could not do anything else for long.
Fortunately, what was written on the notice was true. He endured hunger and worked hard for half a day in exchange for a hearty lunch. If it was like this in the future, he and his sister might be able to survive safely in the end times.
Just survival, the word "life" has already left them far away on the day of the end of the world.
Meng Yi stood among a group of people and spoke with high spirits.
"I tell you, as long as you work hard, you will have everything you need in our team. Moreover, once you join our hunting team, each hunting team member can bring a family member with him. That family member can join our logistics department and no longer have to work hard every day to exchange for food.
You should know that you are still in the probation period. If you slack off or do anything that harms our team, you will be expelled. If the situation is serious, then sorry, our captain said that those who harm others will be harmed by others. Don't even think about staying in the base in the future. Do you understand?"
