Chapter 428

The room was silent for a long time, with only the whistling of the wind outside the window.

Yan Nange tentatively opened her mouth, “Although Xingluo Base is just a privately run base, it still has no less than ten thousand people. Even if we calculate one meal per person per day, the amount of food needed won’t be small. Now Xingluo Base is short of supplies, and we don’t have many crystal cores on hand, so we really don’t have the ability to pay in the short term…”

Before she could finish her words, Lin Qianhuan interrupted her. “Once you go to Kyoto Base and settle down, you will always have the ability to pay. The most important thing now is to let the survivors in the base live and survive this extreme cold.”

Lin Qianhuan slightly curved her lips, her tone somewhat helpless. She lacks everything now, except for grain, oil, rice, and flour. The planting soil in the space can harvest thousands of pounds of rice and wheat every day. These two things are automatically processed into rice and white flour, stacked in the space warehouse, with no end in sight.

Since Lin Qianhuan realized the system’s intention, she began to accumulate food. After all, to supply the entire Huaxia, how could less be enough? If the space warehouse had a boundary, it would probably have been filled with the things she had hoarded long ago.

“Now it’s extremely cold, and neither official nor private bases are rich, so I naturally won’t ask you for money at this juncture. Everything will wait until you settle down, and things must be prioritized.”

Lin Qianhuan pushed the rice porridge cooked with Spirit Spring water in front of Yan Nange, “Here, drink it quickly to replenish your strength. The weather is bad now, so you should rest at home. With Jiang Xing and me here, you don’t need to worry. When you get better, you can go out and work with us.”

Yan Nange picked up the spoon in the porridge bowl, her eyes slightly reddened. Her body is not well now, and even if she goes out, Song Yan will have to take care of her carefully, which will definitely become a burden to them.

“Qianhuan is right, I won’t go out to cause trouble for you. I will definitely take good care of myself and get better as soon as possible!” After saying that, she lowered her head and took two sips of porridge, tears falling into the porridge bowl along her eyes, creating a bitter taste. Since her parents died, she had never been treated so gently by anyone other than Song Yan.

The four of them had a simple breakfast together. The cold wind outside was still raging, slapping snowflakes hard on the thick glass, causing the doors and windows to shake slightly.

Song Yan helped Yan Nange to the bed and tucked her in before leaving with peace of mind.

The three of them got into the SUV. The wheels were fitted with anti-skid chains, and the car moved steadily on the compacted snow surface. Lin Qianhuan sat in the passenger seat, slightly turning her head to look at Song Yan, “What are you going to do with that traitor? Now it’s extremely cold, and you don’t have any concrete evidence, so directly arresting him is not a wise choice.”

Song Yan was a little puzzled, “Why do we need evidence? Just kill him. The biggest fist wins!”

Lin Qianhuan helplessly supported her forehead and rubbed her temples wearily. Heaven knows how Yan Nange managed to control this guy. He is irritable, doesn’t listen to advice, and only knows how to fight and kill when something happens, which is really speechless.

“Do you know what a base leader needs?”

Song Yan was about to open his mouth, but Lin Qianhuan directly stopped him. “Not only do you need super combat power, but you also need the survivors in the base to trust you and be willing to follow you. A qualified leader can’t just rely on his fists, can you understand?”

Song Yan blinked, then leaned against the car window with his arms crossed, “I don’t understand. I’ve long been tired of being this damn base elder. If Nange hadn’t said she didn’t want these people to die in the apocalypse, I wouldn’t care about them.”

For experimental subjects, they never care about the lives of ordinary people. They do whatever they want and are very self-centered. Song Yan has a violent temper and is even more of a leader among experimental subjects, so he naturally doesn’t want to deal with these troublesome things.

Lin Qianhuan tapped her finger on the car window, “In that case, you can just kill those people. Then the survivors of Xingluo Base will protest against this, and Nange will probably be busy trying to appease them again.”

Mentioning Yan Nange, Song Yan’s violent temper instantly calmed down, and he looked out the window sullenly. “Okay, okay, I won’t kill him, okay? I’ll listen to you.”

Lin Qianhuan chuckled, completely grasping this guy’s weakness. As long as Yan Nange is mentioned, Song Yan will definitely calm down and obey.

“The survivors are not getting enough to eat or wear, and they already have opinions about you and Nange, and their rebellious psychology is more serious. So the most important thing now is to let them eat and keep warm, and let them be grateful first is the most important thing.”

Lin Qianhuan stroked her chin, “How many areas is Xingluo Base divided into in total? I see that these areas are not gathered together, and there is still some distance between them.”

Song Yan replied, “Seven zones. Mainly because this place was actually a desolate small town before. There were not many buildings in the first place, and they were scattered everywhere. If you want to build a base, you naturally need to have a place for the residents to live. But it is definitely not realistic to build them now, so the town was divided into 7 small areas according to the previous buildings. Although they are scattered, the distance is not too far, so it is still easier to manage.”

Lin Qianhuan nodded, “Then how is the number of residents distributed in these 7 zones?”

Song Yan: “Evenly divided. After all, it’s extremely cold, and everyone is willing to squeeze into a house to keep warm. The total population of Xingluo Base is less than 15,000, so on average, there are only more than 2,000 people in each zone.”

“More than two thousand people?” Lin Qianhuan had a smile on her face, and the pressure suddenly reduced a lot. “It’s okay, not too many people, so I won’t be too busy for a while. Let’s start by distributing rice porridge and steamed buns from the first residential building in Zone 1. Distribute them at the entrance of the unit, and people who have received them can go home directly. It’s warmer than distributing them in the open air.”

Song Yan nodded when he heard the words, but was still a little hesitant: “What if someone gets more than their share?”

Lin Qianhuan took out a seal from her pocket: “Integrity Seal. The mark will automatically disappear after 4 hours on the skin, and it can’t be removed by any means in the middle. With this, you don’t have to worry about someone getting it twice.”

This is what she bought specifically in the system store, and it is absolutely easy to use.

Song Yan was a little surprised, his eyes lit up instantly: “So magical?”

Lin Qianhuan thought he would ask more questions, but she never expected that he would take the seal, stamp it on the back of his hand, and then start rubbing it hard, having a great time playing with it himself.

Lin Qianhuan scratched her head and looked out the window speechlessly. Sure enough, she still overestimated Song Yan’s brain circuit. This guy doesn’t care about the principle of the Integrity Seal at all, he just thinks it’s interesting.

The SUV drove all the way towards Zone 1 and finally stopped in front of the unit door of the first residential building.
