Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 858: Who Do You Want to Be With
Chapter 858: Chapter 858: Who Do You Want to Be With
After arranging Wang Liang properly, Su Jin finally felt that Han Yue’s matter was completely resolved.
As for this bounty team rating competition, Liang Jiuhui also sought opinions from the management within the base, as well as from Wei Junhao.
“My uncle had already considered this matter before we came; having the rating once a year is too troublesome, so we suggest once every three years.”
Wei Junhao said, in this apocalypse with snow disasters and droughts, who has the energy for Special Ability Users to be busy with team rating every year?
“Once every three years is fine, but if a team wants to be rated in the interim, I think adding a bit more flexibility could be more humane.”
Liang Jiuhui suggested that three years is neither long nor short, and the bounty team system should be more flexible; otherwise, the level’s credibility might not be acknowledged by everyone.
However, in this apocalypse, it’s not only S City and B City bases. So what Liang Jiuhui and Wei Junhao discussed in the end is just a suggestion.
The real thing is to notify each major base and solicit their opinions.
“So, Xiao Huihui, isn’t your base also going to send people to go out with us?”
Wei Junhao smiled meaningfully.
“Of course, enhancing communication between the bases has always been one of the things I advocate for.”
Liang Jiuhui replied noncommittally.
He and Liang Wei have always believed that in the apocalypse, not only should bases communicate with each other, but they should also maintain good relations. For example, the soilless cultivation techniques brought back by the Heart Talk Team from N City base were excellent. The technology and products of S City base could also be promoted to other bases, which might even generate significant revenue.
“Uh-huh, so how many people do you plan to send with us?”
Wei Junhao nodded hurriedly and asked.
Liang Jiuhui looked at the eager expression on Wei Junhao’s face and smiled: “Recently, Zhao Qinglong and others registered a new team at the base. Their strength is not weak, and since you were all from the B City base before, why not…”
“No, no, Bai Ying had a spat with that Kang Yan before, and the relationship is bad, so they can’t go together.”
Wei Junhao immediately shook his head and rejected it.
“I see, let me think… the brothers Xing Taining and Xing Taian are not bad; they have plenty of experience going out. I’d feel at ease letting them go.”
Liang Jiuhui said.
“No, no, they’re both guys, and there are two girls, including Bai Ying in our team. It’s too inconvenient.”
Wei Junhao continued to refuse.
“Do you have someone you want to go with?”
Liang Jiuhui asked with a smile, seeing that Wei Junhao’s intentions were written all over his face from the start; how could he not notice?
Wei Junhao chuckled and said, “If it’s about strength and outdoor experience, who can compare with the Heart Talk Team from your base? Besides, when the SS-level Heart Talk Team sets out, it gives face to your Base Leader, doesn’t it?”
“The Heart Talk Team is good, but their two kids are not even two months old, and I can’t bring myself to ask.”
Liang Jiuhui clarified directly.
As far as he knew, lately, fewer people have been going out from the base, and even the Heart Talk Team hasn’t left for a long time. This can only mean that the Heart Talk Team is especially doting on the two newborns.
“But, but I think they wouldn’t refuse as long as the Crystal Cores we offer are attractive enough, don’t you think?”
Wei Junhao continued to persuade.
“We?”
Liang Jiuhui raised an eyebrow and smiled.
At that moment, the family came out of the Teleportation Array covered in sweat, and after everyone had taken a shower, Su Jin took Lu Xi and Lu Wang out of the Space.
Lately, they haven’t gone out of the base, but every day they go to H City to kill Zombies. In the afternoon, the alleys are shaded by houses on both sides. Although it’s still hot, it’s much better than the scorching heat outside the base.
Lu Guanhai was joyfully entertaining Lu Xi and Lu Wang with a rattle in one hand and a bell in the other.
When in the Space, everyone scrambles to hold Lu Xi and Lu Wang to see the vast fields and orchards, but outside, because of the heat, Su Jin lets the two babies lie in their cribs to play. Otherwise, both adults and children would sweat from holding them for a short while.
Lin Xiuyuan was busy with his Ice Element “air conditioner,” which was basically just gathering ice in various containers.
“I’m going to call Kou Ning for help,”
Lin Xiuyuan said before running out; it was nearly time for Kou Ning to get up.
Just then, the phone rang.
On the other end, Liang Jiuhui asked straightforwardly:
“Lu Hao, I have a mission here; it might take some time. Are you interested in taking it?”
There seemed to be someone on the other end trying to interject, and the voice seemed somewhat familiar, but Lu Hao still asked the question he was concerned about: “How many Crystal Cores?”
“One million.”
“Hmm, that’s a bit low.”
Lu Hao looked at the family comfortably avoiding the heat at home with Lu Xi and Lu Wang; one million Crystal Cores? Maybe it’s better to let everyone stay home and avoid the heat…
“Lu Hao, Lu Hao, we’ll add 500,000 more, does that sound good?”
Another voice next to Liang Jiuhui called out.
“…”
It seems like it was Wei Junhao? Lu Hao recognized who it was then.
Noticing Lu Hao’s silence, Wei Junhao got a bit anxious: “800,000, would 800,000 be okay? We still have to trade with you later.”
“So what is the mission?”
Lu Hao asked with a smile; he was a bit curious now.
After hearing Liang Jiuhui’s explanation of the mission, Lu Hao was somewhat tempted. Their task was merely to protect Liang Wei and others, to deliver messages to the bases and gather opinions. If they seized this opportunity to trade with Dragon Ruler once again, their gains wouldn’t just be 1.8 million Crystal Cores.
“Okay, I’ll discuss it with everyone and get back to you soon.”
Lu Hao said.
The family was quite shocked to hear about the mission, but by then, Lin Xiuyuan had already brought in the sleepy Kou Ning, so the discussion didn’t continue.
“You woke me up for something this simple?”
Kou Ning said after embedding several long metal boxes into the wall of the villa, indicating that it was a minute’s work.
“I’ll have my mom make your dinner tonight.”
Lin Xiuyuan tried filling those metal boxes with ice; this way, even if the ice melts, it won’t drip down.
“Do the other rooms need it?”
Kou Ning asked eagerly.
“Not for now; do you feel it’s cooler?”
Lin Xiuyuan tried to feel the air and thought the room indeed felt cooler.
“Cool, cool, so what time is dinner?”
Kou Ning continued to ask.
“…”
Su Jin listened to the meaningless conversation between the two and felt that the room wasn’t as stuffy anymore.
She picked up Lu Wang, who then slightly grinned and looked at her attentively, his legs joyfully and vigorously kicking in the air to express his happiness.
So cute~
Su Jin couldn’t resist giving Lu Wang a kiss on the top of his head. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to hold Lu Xi; it was just that Lu Xi was currently lying in Lu Hao’s arms, babbling and chewing on his fingers.
Lu Hao seemed completely unfazed by the drooling on his chest and looked at Lu Xi with eyes full of tender smiles. Every now and then, he glanced up at Su Jin, his gaze full of satisfaction.
