Chapter 550: Chapter 550: Booming Business Chapter 550: Chapter 550: Booming Business “I think, if only I were my little uncle,”
Wei Junhao sat in Liang Jiuhui’s office and sighed.
“Why?”
Liang Jiuhui asked, not understanding.
“Then I could bring all the people from our Wei Family to your S City base. What a harmonious place it is, there’s no need to stay in that dye vat,”
Wei Junhao was envious. The S City base was simply the most united base he had seen, and it felt so safe.
“Then don’t even think about it, I don’t foster any internal strife here, simplicity is best,”
Liang Jiuhui feigned refusal.
“All right, all right, even if I let them co, they wouldn’t. Don’t worry. It’s just if you could introduce to a ntal Elent Ability User…”
Wei Junhao envied Liang Jiuhui as he glanced at Sheng Jing beside him.
ntal Elent Ability Users, B City probably didn’t know about this Special Ability except for the Han Family. He really envied Liang Jiuhui, for suddenly having two ntal Elent Ability Users.
“Impossible, and you better keep this a secret,”
Liang Jiuhui imdiately refused, wanting a ntal Elent Ability User? They should look for one themselves. Aren’t there several tis more survivors in B City than in S City? It wouldn’t be that hard to find a ntal Elent Ability User, right?
“I know, I know, I was just saying,”
Wei Junhao knew he could only feel envious. His visit wasn’t entirely without gains; at least he learned that Han Yue was a ntal Elent Ability User. If the Han Family continued to keep this a secret, his Wei Family wouldn’t even know how they died.
And Wang Liang sohow beca one of their own. Though he didn’t know if he was useful, it was better than nothing.
“That Wang Liang, if he really passes on any ssages to you, don’t forget to give him a reward,”
Liang Jiuhui said, as Lu Hao and Su Jin had asked him to convey things about the S City base and the Heart Talk Team. If it was indeed about their base, then the transmission would have to go through Wei Junhao.
“Of course, the reward must be more generous than what the stingy Han Family offers,”
Wei Junhao was quite confident about this.
…
Snowflakes were still drifting outside the window, but inside the S City base, it wasn’t deserted at all.
Especially outside the two Heart Talk Stores, long lines had already ford.
Although the Crystal Core rewards for the Zombie Tide hadn’t been handed out by the base yet, many Special Ability Users had obtained Mutated Crystal Nuclei. If the Mutated Crystal Nucleus matched their own Elent, most kept them for themselves, but many Mutated Crystal Nuclei were of no use to them.
So, they either found soone to exchange with or went to the Heart Talk Store to buy things.
The Heart Talk Store was very supportive. They accepted Mutated Crystal Nuclei of any Elent.
To everyone’s surprise, there were also so ntal Elent Mutated Crystal Nuclei available, although of lower levels, they were still useful for Qiqi.
Wood Elent Mutated Crystal Nuclei were the most abundant. Whether intentionally or not, everyone directly brought Wood Elent Mutated Crystal Nuclei to the Heart Talk Store to trade for goods.
The Heart Talk Store now resembled a trading market, with many Special Ability Users trading Mutated Crystal Nuclei useful to them. It made the shop buzz with activity.
“Once the base hands out the rewards, we’ll probably all need to co and help out in the store,”
Su Jin said, laughing. Beside her, Lu Hao held her hand while holding an umbrella over her.
“You’re the boss, what you say goes,”
Lu Hao said with a smile.
They had just received news from Yin Chengtian, who had raced back to tell them that Guo Yang’s space had sold out of supplies and urgently needed restocking, and had co over quickly. They hadn’t expected the store to do so well today.
It seems the zombie tide brought not only bad things after all.
After returning, Su Jin took the opportunity to let Lin Xiuyuan freeze so of the remaining mutant animals in the space, planning to sell them in the base. Now, many teams in the base were collectively buying supplies, and these whole, unprocessed mutant animals might find buyers.
Originally, mutant animals could have been used to feed Labi, but since the poultry and livestock in the space were breeding too quickly and couldn’t be taken out for sale directly, she had no choice but to feed Labi with them.
Labi in the space was extrely docile. It was no longer the skinny, dirty creature it used to be. Huang Yunxiang had bathed it several tis outside the formation, and with Su Jin’s care, it had beco a spirited mutated lion.
Su Jin now understood why Mao Qiqi wanted to ride Labi into battle against the zombie animals originally. Not only Qiqi, but she also wanted to ride on it and gallop around.
At this mont, Mao Qiqi was in the space room advancing to the next level. If she was successful this ti, Qiqi would be at Level Four of the ntal Elent.
The crystal core from the Level Five ntal Elent zombie had been a big help. After Qiqi absorbed it, she felt the urge to advance. Coupled with the ntal Elent crystal cores collected by the two convenience stores in the past few days, Qiqi successfully started advancing today.
“Xiao Jin, do you guys want to step outside for a bit? They are preparing to hold the zombie tide summary eting via broadcast,”
Su Xiangzhe said to everyone after entering the space. He had just picked up Lin Tianhui from work and heard the base broadcast on the way, saying that the summary eting would be held in 20 minutes and all base mbers should tune in.
“Through broadcast? That’s convenient,”
Huang Yunxiang said, otherwise, in this cold weather, they really wouldn’t feel like going to the administrative building.
“Let’s go out, since it’s a base-wide event, there might be sothing they need to announce,”
Lu Hao said.
“There’s still so ti in 20 minutes; no need to rush out. Let’s eat so glutinous rice balls before we go,”
Lin Yunguo called out. Twenty minutes outside was several hours here, and they couldn’t miss out on today’s glutinous rice balls.
“Alright, grandpa, let’s all eat together,”
Su Jin had been craving glutinous rice balls for a while now. Lately, she had developed a liking for sweet foods with fillings. Although the glutinous rice balls were not handmade, they were sesa-filled, a type her family often ate before the apocalypse. Lin Yunguo even cooked a large pot of them.
“Once you’re finished eating, take so packs out so everyone can try. We need to make it feel like the holidays,”
Li Xiuying said as she served everyone.
She also placed a jar of white sugar in the middle of the table, along with so side dishes to cleanse the palate. It was their family tradition to sprinkle a layer of white sugar in the soup to make the glutinous rice balls even sweeter.
Lin Xiuyuan finished a bowl quickly. Li Xiuying, aiming for an auspicious number, served six glutinous rice balls in each bowl for good luck, which left Lin Xiuyuan feeling like it wasn’t enough.
“Grandma, can I have another bowl? It’s been a while since I had glutinous rice balls, and they’re really tasty,”
With the side dishes on the table, the glutinous rice balls didn’t seem greasy at all. Each one was plump and full of filling, and with a gentle bite, the fragrant black sesa filling would ooze out. Even Su Jin couldn’t resist asking for a second bowl.
“Eat a little less; be careful not to eat too much of this or you might not digest it well,”
Lin Yunguo warned, worried that eating too many might lead to indigestion, especially since they were made with glutinous rice.
“Dad, don’t worry. We all have special ability user’s bodies now; we won’t have any digestive problems,”
Lin Cheng said with his mouth full of glutinous rice balls.
