Although the main responsibility for production lay with the guards, Du Kun and his men still recruited many people from the settlement.
You could say it's the difference between permanent and temporary employees, but the pay is very good.
Even temporary workers from the settlement area are treated to rice and receive a few zombie crystals.
This kind of job is extremely popular at the Guardian Group; every time they start recruiting, there's always a long queue.
Compared to hunting zombies in the wild, working for the Guardian Group is like heavenly treatment, driving people absolutely crazy.
Wei Lun wouldn't concern himself with these matters; he had returned to his house in the compound.
He put all the supplies from the jade pendant into the warehouse, because Wei Lun had checked when he arrived and the warehouse was still quite well-stocked.
Now that the supplies have been moved in, the entire warehouse is full.
Looking at the different grains and various goods on the shelves, Wei Lun felt very satisfied.
...
Three days passed quietly, with Wei Lun repeatedly delivering the mobile phone chips produced by Du Kun back and forth.
During the trip, Wei Lun also brought a lot of snacks, because it happened to be Qin Mutong's birthday.
Wei Lun specially returned to the modern world to buy a huge cake, which was one of Qin Mutong's little wishes.
The entire management team came to celebrate my birthday.
Cake, an item that is out of reach for most people, has remained unseen since the post-apocalyptic world.
In the living room of the courtyard, a huge curtain covered the birthday cake.
The entire management team was present. The team leader was in charge of specific tasks, while Fu Xixi, Qin Jiayou, Du Kun, Lin Xinyue, Zeng Guangtian, Lei Long, Zhu Guanjun, Qin Mutong, and others all came to the living room.
Everyone knows that today is the boss's wife, Qin Mutong's, birthday.
Happy birthday, Tongtong!
Happy birthday, Madam!
Happy birthday, daughter!
...
Everyone flocked to Qin Mutong to congratulate her, as if this birthday was a rare opportunity for a gathering.
Indeed, I've been too busy lately.
The time they actually spend together is very limited; most of their communication relies on interdimensional communication.
Today is a joyous day.
Everyone took out the gifts they had.
The biggest gift, of course, belonged to Wei Lun, but no one knew what was inside that tall curtain.
Qin Mutong received care and concern from everyone, including new pre-disaster technologies, a teddy bear found in the wild, and many other unique gifts.
Wei Lun stood at the very top of the group.
"Everyone, it is a blessing from heaven that we can gather together, and I, Wei Lun, cherish it very much."
"Today is Mu Tong's birthday. Thank you all for your enthusiasm. These gifts are all thanks to your kind wishes."
"I also prepared a gift for Mu Tong. Can you guess what's behind this curtain?"
Wei Lun said with a grin, whetting everyone's appetite. They could never have guessed that there was a cake inside.
"I bet it's a princess dress!"
"I think this shape is more like a giant doll, which is definitely a gift that the boss no longer wants to give to his wife."
"What kind of look is that? Do you think we could guess what the boss's gift was?"
...
It's the apocalypse, after racking their brains, no one could think of the most normal birthday gift: a cake.
Well, Wei Lun was speechless. It seems the apocalyptic disaster has made everyone forget the happiness they once had.
A sudden pang of sadness welled up in Wei Lun's heart. He thought of the entire apocalypse and how pitiful those struggling humans were.
Unfortunately, Wei Lun was just one person, and there was very little he could truly change.
"Since no one can guess, let's open it and take a look!"
Wei Lun adjusted his mindset and said with a slight smile,
"Madam, please unveil it!"
"Yes, yes, Tongtong, reveal it!"
"Daughter, you unveil it!"
...
A blush seemed to rise on Qin Mutong's face; she looked happy, and tears welled up in her eyes.
This was a moment that made her feel incredibly fulfilled, with everyone's blessings, her husband by her side, and her father watching over her.
She had never imagined she would have such a happy life.
"Okay, Mu Tong, go and uncover it, and see what it is."
Wei Lun said with a smile, then gently wiped the corner of Qin Mutong's eye.
Although Qin Mutong was somewhat inclined to guess that it was a cake, she thought cakes were small, and she never imagined that such a huge item was a cake.
Qin Mutong reached out and pulled the curtain down.
A truly dreamy cake was displayed before everyone, boasting a whopping 19 layers.
It just so happens to be Qin Mutong's 19th birthday, which is a very auspicious sign.
But everyone was shocked; the entire room fell silent in an instant.
Then, tears welled up in everyone's eyes; they had actually seen the cake made before the disaster.
This goes beyond mere value; there's no one else with such extraordinary abilities as the boss.
"Oh my god!"
Wow!
"Cake!"
"Long live the boss!"
"truth!"
...
After a moment of silence, the room erupted in cheers, with a lively birthday song immediately filling the air, and everyone's enthusiasm suddenly soared.
Although they had seen what cakes looked like before, seeing cakes in the apocalypse was such a rare and precious blessing for them.
"Old Qin, you cut the cake. Mu Tong can help you."
Wei Lun said that the cake was quite big, and it would be tiring for Qin Mutong to cut it all by herself, so it would be better to have Lao Qin help.
As a father, Qin Jiayou was very excited and nodded repeatedly.
At that moment, everyone felt a warm glow in their hearts, and the entire room was filled with a youthful atmosphere.
Slices of cake were distributed to everyone. Because there were so many cakes, many were given to the busy team leaders, who were naturally handed them over.
As they ate the cake, everyone was incredibly excited. To see cake in this damned apocalypse was truly something special.
In an instant, a childlike joy was awakened in everyone's heart.
While eating the cake, Wei Lun prepared to announce something.
"Old Qin, how's the production of the particle armor going?"
Wei Lun inquired, because the next step was to announce that the entire guard would be equipped with particle armor, which was a huge benefit, guaranteeing everyone's safety from now on.
"Boss, things are progressing steadily; we've already produced over 100 units!"
Qin Jiayou said with great confidence, because he had been rushing to finish the project recently, and he knew very well that this particle armor would completely turn the tide of the guard's combat power.
"Very good. I hereby announce that, starting today, all members of the guard will be equipped with particle armor! To ensure the safety of every single person!"
During his birthday banquet, Wei Lun also discussed the management of the guards with everyone.
"Long live!"
"Long live the boss!"
"marvelous!"
...
Everyone's face was beaming with smiles. This was good news, and I'm afraid every single one of the guards would be incredibly grateful!
