Chapter 33: Cooperation and Development, 3 Highly Anticipated Spots!
Chapter 33: Cooperation and Development, 3 Highly Anticipated Spots!
The bread jam didn't reply immediately; it seems they went to report the matter to higher-ups.
Lu Yao wasn't in a hurry. Instead, she and Liu Qi busied themselves marking the location before returning up the way they came.
Upon returning, the two began to sketch the internal structure of the air-raid shelter on the floor of the room.
It is certain that this air-raid shelter is safe, there are no infected creatures such as zombies, and no dangerous people hiding here.
That's good news.
As for the door and other things, we can figure out how to deal with them later.
If there's really no other way, then we'll have to exchange it through Lu Yao.
Of course, Lu Yao thought they could first search the city to find as many supplies as possible that they needed.
There are still too few fans in his live stream; he needs to attract more viewers.
"The number of fans is still growing slowly, but it should break 300 in the next couple of days. I expect more people will come."
Lu Yao estimated the situation and said, "One person came for every hundred fans, two people came for every two hundred fans, and three people will probably come for every three hundred fans. The number will increase as time goes on."
Liu Qi glanced at his surroundings, shrugged, and said, "There's nothing we can do about having so many people. We also have to take care of feeding and drinking even more people. Having a lot of people isn't necessarily a good thing."
He had his concerns, believing that having too many people could actually pose some risks.
It would be better if there were fewer people.
However, having fewer people also has its downsides. For example, when encountering the natives in this post-apocalyptic world, having fewer people makes them seem somewhat ridiculous.
However, for Lu Yao right now, having more people is the most important thing!
This air-raid shelter is desperately in need of manpower.
After the two finished discussing their plan, they waited for the live stream to start.
After all, they need a gasoline generator right now. Once the supplies arrive, they can try to get electricity to the place, at least to make it a little brighter.
With light, they had more options for what to do next.
Outside the air-raid shelter.
When the Lei family learned that Lei Xiao had completed the transaction successfully, they immediately arranged for people to protect him on his way back.
A pound of high-quality rice is a very important resource, even within the entire Starry Sky Cluster. If this information is leaked, the other forces in the Starry Sky Cluster will likely take action.
Lei Zhen, the head of the Lei family, arrived in person, bringing with him a team of extraordinary individuals from his family to specifically protect Lei Xiao as he returned to the Star Gathering Ground.
On the way, Lei Zhen, with a full head of white hair, sat in the car and said with a solemn expression, "You did a good job this time."
"Dad, you can rest assured about my work. When have I ever made a mistake?"
Lei Xiao chuckled and said, "Moreover, I've gained basic trust with the people here, so they'll prioritize us in any future transactions."
Upon hearing this, Lei Zhen gave a faint "hmm" and then turned to stare at his son.
After a moment of silence, he finally spoke, "I'll have someone investigate this group when we get back. For now, don't have too much contact with them. Focus on finishing this pound of premium rice first!"
"I know we made a profit on this deal, so there's no rush."
Lei Xiao leaned back in his chair and chuckled, "When I get back this time, let's see who in the family dares to look down on me and say I'm not doing my proper job. They don't even know how big a business I'm running now!"
Seeing his son so smug, Lei Zhen just frowned and didn't say anything more.
Regardless of the process, he was satisfied with the result.
Although the origins of this group are unclear, the fact that they could produce a pound of high-quality rice in one go indicates that they have the strength to persuade the Lei family to cooperate with them.
After returning, first investigate the background of this group. If there are no problems, then let Lei Xiao continue to handle the transaction.
If there is a problem, they must stop immediately.
After all, the Lei family hasn't reached the point where they can challenge certain large forces, so they need to cut their losses in time.
This is the air-raid shelter.
After the Lei family members had all left, Lu Yao had Yuan Tu drive the car to the entrance of the air-raid shelter, blocking the only entrance and exit.
Safety is the most important thing now, so we can't be careless.
After that, Yuan Tu went to teach Lao Gao and Liu Qi the language and writing of this world.
At the same time, Lao Gao also taught Yuan Tu Chinese.
The nine children also ran over to learn together. They seemed very curious about Chinese and wanted to learn this language they had never encountered before.
Lu Yao stayed alone in the room, anxiously watching the live stream.
There were more people in the live stream today, but it's still a little short of 300 people, so we'll have to wait a bit longer.
Right now, Lu Yao's biggest concern is the gasoline generator.
There was still no news about the bread jam, and Lu Yao was at a loss, so he could only watch the few rich guys in the live stream with longing eyes.
"Brothers, the gasoline generator needs 10,000 points, which is equivalent to one million points as a gift reward. How about we chip in?"
Looking at the situation in the live stream, Lu Yao tentatively asked, "After all, everyone will have a chance to come here later. This air-raid shelter will be our base camp, so we should at least get the power back on, right?"
[Strawberry-flavored spicy snack: A gasoline generator? What will you do with the gasoline then?]
[One Radish: In the post-apocalyptic world, there's gasoline. Just go out and find it. There are so many abandoned cars in the city; you won't have to worry about gasoline or similar supplies.]
[Patrick Star's friend: Even Chicken Bro has started learning foreign languages! I want to learn too! Host, quickly zoom out the camera!]
【OHYYHO: Are you sure it's for studying? I think you just like Mu Yu's body, you're shameless!】
[A single radish: O-ge and I discussed it, let's pool our resources and put in the majority of the cost.]
[OHYYHO: I have no problem with that, I can even offer 500,000 directly, but the question is, when will it be my turn?]
[Gale force 8: Almost 300 people, are there only three spots this time? Is the number of spots fixed?]
[Patrick Star's friend: Don't even think about it. The streamer can't control it. The doomsday livestream selects people randomly. I wish I could be selected next time!]
Turkey-flavored rice crackers: Wish +1!
【…】
The big spenders in the live stream expressed their willingness to support, but right now they need confirmed spots.
They were filled with curiosity about this apocalypse and couldn't wait to come over.
Unfortunately, the number of spots to experience the apocalypse is limited and random. Only three out of three hundred fans will have a chance. Even if someone is not present when the draw is taking place, there are still at least dozens of people watching in the live stream.
It has to be said that the pressure of this extraction is truly extraordinary.
[Bread Jam: Streamer, you're free to develop your own path. Don't worry about funds in the early stages, but later you'll need someone to try and bring things back, or you can start researching related technologies in the post-apocalyptic world...]
