Chapter 39 Chapter 39 It really came without any effort. …
Ye Mian turned around and raised his eyebrows slightly when he looked at Xie Yi who was chasing after him. Did he want to make a deal right away?
However, Xie Yi, who stood in front of her and looked at the people around her, said something that surprised and unexpectedly made everyone.
"Miss Ye, are you willing to take a few more people with you?"
Ye Mian had never expected that under such circumstances, Xie Yi would actually take the initiative to ask to go with her.
She thought that the fate of their group had been settled and she had no chance to snatch anyone away, so she placed her hopes on the survivors in the industrial park.
I never thought there would be a turning point.
"You don't want to stay here?"
"That's not the case," Xie Yi quickly shook his head and explained, "I and some people who can fight against mutants will stay here. As for the rest, I think it would be better for them to stay with you rather than follow us."
After hearing what he said, the onlookers understood what was going on - he wanted to stuff those weak teammates in the team to Ye Mian.
But it would be good for those people to stay in the industrial park as logistics support. Is it necessary to push them out specifically?
Just when everyone had different expressions, on the one hand they did not agree with Xie Yi's behavior, on the other hand they felt that if Ye Mian agreed to accept it, he would be really stupid, then Ye Mian nodded.
"It's not impossible, but I have to meet the person first before I can make a decision."
Xie Yi also knew that his suggestion was too sudden and presumptuous, so he immediately nodded and agreed: "Of course, they are all over there!"
Seeing that Ye Mian actually followed him to pick people, the people around didn't know what to say for a moment. They could only shrug their shoulders and ignore this trivial matter.
Some people also looked at Ye Mian's back from a distance, with various emotions flashing in their eyes, but they were finally concealed.
The reason why Xie Yi waited until the last minute to stand up so eagerly was, on the one hand, that he had discussed it with his companions, and on the other hand, he had also sought Wen Yuan's consent.
After all, they were rescued by Wen Yuan and others, and then they completely took refuge here. Naturally, they have to abide by the rules set here and cannot just leave.
Because they had just experienced the previous accident, they now came to the industrial park and saw a large number of mutant corpses. The group of people following Xie Yi were more listless than the other, and did not look much better than the survivors on the other side.
However, Ye Mian probably guessed why they would rather go with her than stay.
——This place is just like the previous village, and it is still possible to be attacked by mutants at any time.
But it’s different where she is. She can definitely eat enough, she can definitely be guaranteed to be safe, and she never has to worry.
At Xie Yi's signal, more than ten people lined up and walked in front of Ye Mian for her to choose.
"I've told them that who to take away depends on who Miss Ye likes, and no one else will have any complaints."
"Just call me Ye Mian."
Xie Yi was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Ye Mian looked at the skills of the dozen or so people. They had everything except that they were not very good at fighting and could not protect themselves.
But now she doesn't look at skills when choosing people, but at what they can do.
"Then let's have an interview, line up one by one."
Although it was called an interview, Ye Mian mainly asked one question - what did you do before the mutation, or what you can do.
After asking a round of questions, Ye Mian smiled and felt relieved.
Fortunately, the uncle who could build houses that Chen Jia mentioned before was also among these people!
It really is effortless.
In the end, including this uncle, Ye Mian selected a total of five people. It was not because he didn't want to bring too many people back to the farm at once, but only after close communication could he understand one thing - not all farmers are hardworking and honest.
After finishing the selection, Ye Mian didn't delay any longer and took a group of people to search the industrial park.
In addition to looking for some agricultural machinery, there are also some utensils and tools that are not considered supplies. When taking small items, it is possible to hide them from people traveling with you, but this is not possible with large items.
They watched helplessly as Ye Mian simply stretched out his hand and slapped a small harvester, and the next second the machine disappeared out of thin air. The group of people waiting not far away were all stunned.
what happened?
Worried that they might get scared and change their mind, Lu Ning, who didn't want to say much, explained, "This is one of her skills."
Although the nine people who followed were still shocked, they gradually accepted it.
Ye Mian smiled secretly. If there was something wrong, he should just say it was a skill. After all, the skills of the evolvers nowadays were varied and few people had the same skills.
After seeing Ye Mian put away another small tillage machine, Qi Shu couldn't help but take a few steps forward.
"Miss Ye, are you going to use these farm machines later?"
Ye Mian hummed: "Is there something wrong with them?"
"That's not a problem," Qi Shu said. Although he didn't know about mutants and evolvers, he knew that the land and water sources were still polluted. However, he didn't come to question it. "I just thought that we might need some more batteries."
No matter what kind of machine it is, if you want to keep using it, the battery does need to be replaced.
Ye Mian wasn't sure if the latest one would work, but there was no harm in taking it back and trying it. She nodded: "Do you know where I can get one?"
"I know. I'll take you there."
Let Qi Shu lead the way in front, Ye Mian followed behind and looked at his skill again - [Repair].
When she first saw it in the cafeteria, she guessed that it was either a medical skill or something simple and direct, restoring damaged items to their original state.
But now it seems that he might be in the same industry as her former self.
But unfortunately, if the battery can be used, it can also be considered as one of the supplies.
A large number of batteries in the factory have been collected and locked up, and someone is responsible for guarding them.
Fortunately, Qi Shu was familiar with all the factories and helped Ye Mian find some missed ones, such as samples and defective products.
"I should have asked for supplies earlier."
Ye Mian looked at the batteries that he had collected with great difficulty in the system warehouse, and felt a little regretful.
"It's okay," Lu Ning consoled, "Except for Li City, other cities also have industrial zones and industrial parks."
"Too."
What’s more important is that it can be used. If it can’t be used, it will just be a decoration if you take it back.
Although the entire industrial park is large, there are not many places worth collecting. In addition, there is Qi Shu among them who is familiar with the route, which avoids many wrong routes and reduces the search time.
When Ye Mian and her group went around to the main entrance of the park from the other side, they saw Wen Yuan and a few others already waiting for her, and the agreed vehicle was also ready.
The reason why Wen Yuan came in person to take over was, of course, because after meeting the three requirements raised by Ye Mian, they could directly start their first transaction.
Although other people in the park were still cleaning up the battlefield and did not get too many rhenium stones, Wen Yuan still had three rhenium crystals in his hand.
It seems that the other three intermediate mutants were all dealt with under his leadership.
After letting the nine people who followed them get in the car and wait, Ye Mian and Lu Ning walked to the pickup truck they drove over and "took" various food supplies from the cargo compartment.
These grains alone are naturally not worth three rhenium crystals and a pile of rhenium stones. The real focus is the fruits that Ye Mian brought, as well as the processed materials and food.
Looking at the strawberries, peaches, olives and fresh vegetables they brought, as well as the bags of flour, rice, and even a few pickled salted fish, dried kelp, and prepared pasta, the people following Wen Yuan didn't know whether to be surprised or happy.
Ye Mian had no time to care about their reactions. She was explaining the exchange rules to Wen Yuan one by one, and she also told him truthfully that one rhenium crystal could be converted into ten pieces of high-quality rhenium stones.
If you want to achieve long-term cooperation in the future, honesty and credibility are the key.
Wen Yuan listened silently the whole time without interrupting her. After she finished speaking, he nodded slightly and said, "Can you provide a larger amount in the future?"
"certainly."
Including Lu Ning, Xue Kai, Chen Jia and others, the farm now has twelve employees. As long as the points are enough, seeds can be exchanged continuously.
After a pause, Ye Mian continued, "But it would be best if you come and pick it up yourself. We can't always have it delivered to your door."
Wen Yuan looked at her, his expression calm: "No problem."
Ye Mian handed over the address with the route map that Xue Kai had drawn in advance: "Just wait here."
It was said to be an address, but the place marked on it was actually a wilderness. Wen Yuan's eyelids moved slightly, then he chuckled and put the paper away.
It was the first time Ye Mian heard his laughter and couldn't help but look at him twice.
Although it was deep and pleasant to hear, her focus was not on that. Instead, she always felt that he was wearing a disguise when talking to others, and that the cold and indifferent him with the gun drawn was his true side.
Such people can be trusted in cooperative transactions, but it is best to stay away from them in other aspects.
Ye Mian was even more certain of this when he found out that Wen Yuan had specially ordered people to connect the cars together in pairs so that they could tow them back directly.
Lu Ning sighed beside him: "How thoughtful! They even thought in advance that few people here can drive."
Moreover, among the few people who can drive, half of them are not in good condition. Only Qi Shu and Chen Jia's uncle can still drive barely.
Finally, the group was divided into three cars. Lu Ning drove a pickup truck in front to lead the way, and the two people behind each towed a car behind.
As if to fulfill the final courtesy, Wen Yuan watched with his own eyes as a group of people reallocated the vehicles and got on them. Therefore, as the leader of this side, Ye Mian had to stay and be the last one to get on the vehicle.
"Goodbye, and I wish you all the best."
"Thank you very much."
When Ye Mian turned around, opened the car door and was about to get in, a deliberately low and cold male voice was heard again.
"Ms. Ye, your real skill is to find the weaknesses of mutants, right?"
Ye Mian blinked, then got into the car without stopping: "Let's go."
Wen Yuan had no intention of calling her, but instead took two steps back and watched them drive away indifferently.
He stood there for a while, and when he saw that the others had packed up their things and were ready to take them back, he withdrew his gaze and followed them back.
But before they had walked for long, a familiar figure came running over from the park: "Brother Yuan, something bad has happened!"
