Chapter 270



But then Ye Shang said, "I don't care about the rest of you, but everyone who's here today must cultivate every single day without fail, understand?"

The voice wasn't loud, and even carried a cold tone, but everyone could clearly hear that it was an order from the brigade, and one that had to be carried out.

It can be said that apart from Qingli and Zhou Yi'an, everyone else is Ye Shang's subordinate, and she certainly doesn't want to see anyone slacking off.

Everyone said in unison, "We understand!"

The sound was so loud that it seemed to shake the snow off the roof.

It wasn't until around 2 PM that all the questions were answered.

After everyone left, Zhou Yi'an, Han Yi, and the recorder Song Wenwen stayed behind to discuss matters concerning the coming year with Ye Shang.

Of course, it was just a brief discussion. Ye Shang asked Song Wenwen to send her the organized documents first, and then send them out after she had read them.

The group stayed to finish their meal before leaving.

Han Yi truly lives up to his reputation as the head of logistics; he's an excellent cook, and with his help, Shen Qian's life has become much easier.

After everyone had left, Ye Shang read through the documents that Song Wenwen had sent him one by one, and after checking them, he asked Song Wenwen to distribute them.

She then got up and walked around, twisting her neck, and went into the yard, looking at the yard piled with snow.

After thinking for a moment, he simply waved his sleeve, and the snow in the yard gradually began to melt.

The flames burned through the snow, but avoided burning the houses and belongings.

After the ground was cleaned up, it was even somewhat dry, but snowflakes were still falling heavily from the sky.

The snow may dissipate on the ground and pile up again overnight, but for people with superpowers, cleaning it up is relatively simple.

Qingli finished her tasks and came out to stand beside her. "Ah Shang, can our current precautions offer a glimmer of hope?"

Knowing that future turmoil might occur, we must still continue to develop the base.

Ye Shang looked at the gray sky, her gaze seemingly piercing through some mist, looking at something on the other side through the highest layer of the sky.

"Perhaps."

Her voice was soft, yet tinged with uncertainty. She had done everything she could to protect this world.

Qingli kept looking at her with his head turned to the side, his eyes fixed on Ye Shang: "Then let's take it one step at a time."

His gaze always followed Ye Shang. He knew what she was pursuing and what she wanted to do, so he kept working hard and following her ideas to build this world.

Two people, as clear as a breeze and as bright as the moon, stood quietly by a pillar in the courtyard for a long time.

Ye Shang suddenly said, "Qingli, let's speed things up these next few years."

She was referring to the base's accelerated progress and its rapid strengthening.

Only when everyone becomes stronger than they already are can we resist some irresistible forces.

The following day was the third day of the lunar month.

Yang Jinxia and Jiang Lecheng had arranged to meet at the same time and brought some fruit over.

The two entered the house together and greeted Ye Shang with smiles: "Boss, Happy New Year."

Ye Shang handed the two energy stones wrapped in red envelopes to them, saying, "Happy New Year, remember to cultivate."

Jiang Lecheng accepted it with a smile: "Hehe, I will, boss."

"Thank you, boss." Yang Jinxia accepted the red envelope. Although she didn't know what it was, it felt different when she held it. She would find out when she got home.

Ye Shang hummed in agreement and said, "Stay for dinner."

They both nodded and ran to the kitchen to help.

The main problem was that they didn't know what to talk about with Ye Shang, and they subconsciously treated her as their leader.

Ye Shang naturally understood what they were thinking, so he let them be.

After lunch, Jiang Lecheng and Yang Jinxia said their goodbyes and left. On the way, they asked Ye Shang some small questions about the path of cultivation.

Ye Shang answered them one by one. The questions they asked were all not written in the document. She felt that although these were minor issues, they could still be recorded at the bottom of Song Wenwen's document.

The snowflakes were still falling from the sky, but they seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

But perhaps because it snows heavily for half a month every year around this time, people have gotten used to it and haven't paid much attention to this little change.

But Ye Shang stood on the balcony, frowning as he watched the heavy snow falling outside.

She turned to Qingli and said, "Xue has changed."

Upon hearing her words, Qingli stepped forward, examined the area carefully, and then frowned, saying, "The descent speed has increased somewhat."

But it's only a tiny bit, and you can't see it unless you look closely.

After pondering for a while, Ye Shang said to him, "I may need to go into seclusion for a period of time. You will be in charge of the follow-up matters."

This includes a series of events related to cultivation that followed.

Qingli nodded. "How long will it take this time?"

Ye Shang didn't know how long this would take, so he simply said, "I'm not sure either. I'll open up a space for seclusion in this room. Just don't let anyone in."

Qingli nodded, seeing the spot she was pointing to, "Okay, I'll reinforce the spatial confinement for you."

Ye Shang nodded and sat on the meditation cushion, which she had specially prepared for meditation and often used to cultivate.

Then a layer of space was set up around her to seal off her cultivation.

Seeing that she had closed her eyes, Qingli stroked the space shield and reinforced it with another layer.

"From now on, I will continue to help you achieve your long-cherished wish."

He murmured softly, looking at Ye Shang's appearance as if he wanted to etch it into his heart forever.

After calming herself down, Qingli left the room and went to the study, where she turned on her personal computer and continued working on the documents.

Zhou Yi'an, together with the other bases, applied to build an educational area. There are still many children who have not learned to read and write, and it is important to prevent a large number of future generations from being illiterate.

However, this is not a simple matter to do. First of all, there is the issue of teachers. The location for construction is not too difficult; all that is needed is to obtain a plot of land.

Superhumans can build houses relatively quickly; the main advantage lies in other equipment.

Even if we follow the original teaching method, we still need books, pens, paper, and so on.

This will require a large amount of funding, and if the base is built, tuition fees will not be charged for the children attending school for at least the next few years, and compulsory education will continue.

During the apocalypse, ordinary people cannot afford to provide enough supplies for their children to go to school.

However, if they don't collect the fees, this will be a major expense for the base, which is not a good prospect for the base's finances.

Therefore, there are still some people in the base who hold opposing views.
