Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 85 Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night
Before setting off, Shen Jin, Shang Qian, Yang Ao and five other captains had to make preparations.
Such a large base has a lot of affairs now. Fortunately, Shang Qian had anticipated that such a day would happen. Even if she is no longer at the base, there are people in charge of various tasks, including internal affairs and administration: Li Jie;
Human Resources: Lao Wang;
Currency management: 20 financial giants;
There are also specially trained store managers in fertilizer plants, salt factories, garment factories, etc. Therefore, the economic and management aspects that Shang Qian is in charge of can continue to be implemented according to the rules she has set even though she has been away for a while. In order to avoid problems during this period, Shang Qian personally went to Lao Wang to explain. She trusts Lao Wang more. Lao Wang has management skills and some of the methods he uses are admired by even Shang Qian. Li Jie is an old administrator and knows this area well. There will be no problem in execution. With Lao Wang in charge of the general direction, there will be no problems. "Lao Wang, Shen Jin and I will be away for a while, as short as a week and as long as half a month. During this time, you will be responsible for the operation of the entire base and maintain stability. And... I don't care about your troubles, but... you can't break the rules of the base!"
Lao Wang bowed his waist and said, "Yes, yes, yes! Mr. Shang, I will definitely do my best to implement the policies you set, and compile a report every night to report to you by phone. Uh... I promise that no one will cause trouble..."
"Well, it's okay as long as you know it. By the way, how is the little Wang that Shen Jin assigned to you?" Shang Qian is still more confident in Lao Wang. Apart from the things about men and women, he has almost no shortcomings. He is flexible and can talk eloquently when he advances or plant rice in the fields when he retreats. He is a person who can both speak and execute. This was also the secret of his previous stability in Wanyu Group. The boss can't do without him.
Lao Wang scratched his head and replied, "Boss Shang, that guy is really a talent! Although he is not well educated, he is really good at speaking. Whenever he goes to work, he can always make the other party speechless. His arguments are well-reasoned and convincing. He is definitely good at human resources, but..."
"Hmm? What is that?" Shang Qian frowned. Could this little Wang be up to something again? Shen Jin spared him last time, but she didn't have such a good temper. If he dared to do anything that was not good for the No. 1 Home again, Shang Qian would let him know what it meant to settle accounts later and punish him for both crimes!
"It's just... He has a kind heart and can't do bad things. Especially if you want him to kill someone, you have to ask a lot of questions. He won't do it unless you explain everything clearly. He's not a bad person..."
Shang Qian smiled: "That's perfect, it can just neutralize all the bad intentions you have!"
"Hey! Mr. Shang, how can you say that? We have worked together for several years, but you still don't know what kind of person I am? I have a kind heart. I used to release fish every week..."
"Haha, who proposed to replace the holiday benefits of employees with food? Your nephew is the one who purchased, your niece is the one who supplied , and you released the animals, really? Forget it, I won't say anything to you. During this period... the base's economy is in your hands, don't let me down!"
Shang Qian patted Lao Wang on the shoulder, showing her leadership majesty.
The 40-something Old Wang did not argue any more and quickly responded, "I promise... to complete the task!"
…
Late at night, Yang Ao found Liu Jin patrolling above the west city gate, "Huh——"
Yang Ao slowly descended with a jetpack on his back. "Captain Jin is patrolling in person at this late hour?"
Liu Jin hurried over to help Yang Ao take off his [jetpack]: "Brother Ao, it was you who set the patrol every half an hour at night. My brothers and I will take turns, it's the same for everyone!"
Yang Ao nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, the captain should set an example. When you stop patrolling the city walls, it will be time for you to be punished!"
"That's for sure, I'll take the lead. Don't worry, Brother Ao, I won't let you find a chance to punish me, hehe~!" Liu Jin grinned, and wisps of white mist condensed in the air, but for a transcendent... this little temperature is not a big problem even if they run naked.
"I want to go out with Brother Jin for a while," Yang Ao suddenly said, "Ah? Go out with the boss? Then you must take me with you! The Humanoid Extraordinary Instrument, you deserve it!" Liu Jin said excitedly, he liked going out with Brother Ao and the boss, both of them were his idols.
Yang Ao shook his head: "We are going out to kill some zombies this time. Your special ability... won't be very useful!"
"Then I can do archery too. I've learned some archery skills from Pang Guang. I can do long-range damage and I will definitely not be a drag!" Liu Jin was a little anxious.
"I have something more important to arrange for you. We need to take away most of the extraordinary people, leaving 20 people for you. Guard the home and don't let any accidents happen to the base. If everything goes well... I will be back within half a month. This is the [Superpower Enhancement Potion] and [Energy Serum] given to you by the boss. Take them one by one, and you can be promoted to the peak of the first level. Also, these are 7 combat superpower foods and 7 magic beans. Put them in your backpack and keep them in case of emergency..."
Liu Jin wanted to say something, but seeing Yang Ao's serious look, he swallowed it back and reached out to take the two bottles of potions and 14 energy foods: "Brother Ao! Leave the safety of Home No. 1 to me. As long as I'm alive, no one can destroy the boss's foundation!"
…
After the five captains went back, they gathered everyone together overnight and informed the team members that they would no longer go out to kill zombies according to their daily tasks tomorrow, but would go on a mission to clean up a tide of millions of zombies!
They did not tell the team members that there might be third-level zombies in the zombie tide they were going to face. That would be bad for morale. The team members only needed to follow orders. Life and death... was the captain's responsibility.
Tonight, all the deputy captains received a bottle of [Superpower Enhancement Potion] and [Energy Serum], which raised their superpowers to the peak of the first level, putting them on the same level as the warriors of Tianluodiwang who took the "Energy Amplification Potion".
Each of the 460 extraordinary team members took a bottle of [Energy Serum], which improved their physical fitness and total superpowers by 10%, slightly strengthening them.
Many veteran team members, even without taking the [Superpower Enhancement Potion], have already reached the peak level of the first order. They have experienced many zombie tides and battles, and their superpowers have been tempered and strengthened through constant consumption and recovery, becoming experts. In time, among these people, it is very likely that a few people like Yang Ao and Meng San will emerge and be promoted to the second order transcendent.
Tong Zhen, Li Zhe, Wu Yong, Qi Tong and...Miao Shubai, all received a bottle of [Superpower Advanced Potion].
…
Shen Jin sat quietly in the room, calculating his assets. "I traded one of the second-level energy crystal cores from Hu Shou in D City using the [Primary Ability Awakening Potion]. I seized two during the last zombie tide. I exchanged five with Tianluodiwang using the [Compressor]. I got two by killing the second-level Enderman zombies and Y2 zombies, for a total of ten. I spent one to exchange for a bottle of [Intermediate Ability Enhancement Potion] for Shang Qian as a New Year's gift, decomposed a crystal core with the 'teleportation' attribute to get [Ender Pearls x 64], and just now I spent five to exchange five bottles of [Ability Advanced Potion] for several captains, for a total of seven. Now, there are only these three left..."
Shen Jin has three second-level energy crystal cores in his hand, with the attributes of [Power], [Soul], and [Teleportation] respectively.
This is a space where he can still improve the capabilities of his subordinates, but he doesn't plan to use it. If it's not enough for overall improvement, he'll keep it for now.
"Unfortunately... Yang Ao has chosen the gene lock route, so he can't be improved through the [Intermediate Ability Enhancement Potion]. He can only rely on himself!"
Shen Jin carefully checked the items in his [steel storage box], and carefully deduced what he would do in this zombie tide competition. Then he kept taking out some useless things and put them in the [box] at the base. He also hammered on the [workbench] and made groups of items to put in his [steel storage box]. Among them, there were a lot of red, bundled items...
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
…
In a small villa in the suburbs of City B, Sun Can was resting cross-legged, holding a first-level energy crystal core in each hand, flashing like human breathing. At this time, he heard a lot of flapping wings. He sighed, and two fiery red auras flashed on his hands, "Pah~!"
The flashes in the two first-order energy crystal cores the size of billiard balls disappeared in an instant, leaving only two crystal core shells. Sun Can gently crushed them into powder. The 10 skeletons wearing flame wood full body armor around them each held a [Lava Slime Shortbow], kicked open the windows around them, and aimed their shortbows at the sky, "Hehehe~!"
The piercing screams of the Y1 zombies and the sound of airflow from their fluttering wings were heard. Sun Can stood up and gently clenched his hands. Countless blazing flames emerged, and strands of fire emerged from the ground and wrapped around him and the skeletons. A layer of glazed magma covered their palms and weapons, revealing a blazing breath. "Kill!"
10 flaming arrows streaked across the sky, as dazzling as fireworks under the moonlight, "┗|`O′|┛Ah~!"
Five ghosts rushed out from the top floor, holding flaming heads in their hands, and pounced on the large group of Y1 zombies.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night...
