Chapter 39: Dark Waves

"Anyone who has doubts, wants to get something for nothing, wants to snatch my property, please feel free to come over and wait at any time, after three days, I hope the mall will officially open." Zheng Yifan stood at the door, stretched out his arms and shouted loudly.

The survivors around looked at the man in front of them dumbfounded, the powerful superpower was not the leader of this force, but just stood behind this man so quietly, obscure like a small follower.

But no one could ignore his force, for hundreds of people had been torn to pieces by the tornado.

Those who are still alive are those who have not yet figured out the specific situation, or who have no hope at all.

On the ground, nearly 100 people were trampled to death. Hu Han stood in the bloody rain and was not harmed by the tornado in the slightest, but his body was splattered with blood, and there was not a single intact piece of flesh around him, let alone a complete corpse.

"Hey! My friend, why don't you come in and have a drink? Zheng Yifan beckoned to Hu Han, and then entered the room.

Outside the door, Sun Jiang took out the loudspeaker and clicked on the loop play button.

Everyone was disturbed by the deafening sound that kept them awake, but they knew one thing. A big deal.

Shop No. 1 will open in three days, and from now on, anyone who is engaged in the renovation industry before the end of the world can enter Shop No. 1 pù to work for three days for 10 yuan a day, and the designer in charge of the design will receive a reward of 50 yuan and can work here for three days once the design plan is selected.

In an instant, the entire ghetto was detonated, and all the people who had done renovation work before the end of the world came to apply, and while queuing, they snapped up some food from the 21st Division's goods truck.

No one dared to spread rumors, let alone kill people here, because on the second floor of the No. 1 shop, there were more than a dozen crossbows on the balcony, but the most terrifying thing was the guards standing behind the man who had just spoken.

It was he who solved hundreds of people with one shot.

Although the master duel may not be so lethal, it is obviously more than enough to deal with ordinary people like them.

More than a dozen fighters maintained order at the door, and a cordon was pulled up with a red rope in the middle of the queue, prohibiting cutting in line and crowding. Everyone was forced to stand in four rows and slowly accept the assessment in front of them.

The requirements for renovation are simply too simple, they require specific people to do specific things in every location on every floor of the whole building. Don't work hard, just ask for speed.

It doesn't matter what formaldehyde exceeds the standard or what is shoddy. An additional 50 trapeze artists were recruited outside to paint the walls.

Several surreal, pompous and ninth-rate painters were invited to design the exterior wall advertising design.

In terms of interior design, an uncle in his forties with three or four young people did it, one person and one computer, connected to each other into a local area network, and quickly perfected the design, their design time was only five hours, and they had to quickly conceive it.

Thankfully, the design here doesn't have to be unique, and you can copy the previous design. The whole building was slowly designed. Little by little, it was like a puzzle on paper, and then someone printed out the design with a portable printer and made a list of materials.

In particular, the software in the uncle's own treasured memory is simply an artifact of interior design, and the sketch will appear directly when the design requirements and topographic data are entered, and then the drawings can be completed with changes in details.

Of course, this is just the simplest sketch, and you need to adjust it slowly, and then automatically generate a 3D model drawing.

This software was cheekily copied by Zheng Yifan, who knows when it will be used in the future.

The No. 1 shop pù instantly became a construction site, and more than a dozen men who had worked as contract foremen were assigned to the positions of their next work, carefully simulating the construction plan in their brains, only waiting for the materials to expire and the personnel to start work when they arrived.

At the main entrance, no one dared to make a loud noise, and no one dared to touch the brows of the men in the middle.

Sitting on the ground, Zheng Yifan took out a few bottles of good wine, a plate of good food and Hu Han put together wine, and the other soldiers slowly received their share of food next to him.

It was all military fast food, but the materials in it were first-class and sufficient, and a few soldiers lit a fire, and the tin foil package was roasted next to the fire for a while before it could be opened and eaten.

If you are in the field, you can directly use the self-heating system inside to ensure that it is not particularly cool, but now you can heat it at will to your satisfaction.

The fragrant smell of rice attracted all the applicants, and they now knew that the best treatment was not the food, let alone the treatment in the reward and punishment system, but the most inconspicuous and the two words that they didn't see the most, the rice.

What a simple two words, if it is another mercenary regiment or the construction of the 21st Division, it is simply porridge and a piece of pickle.

That's the best meal. As for porridge, not gruel, it is because according to the old saying, put a chopstick in it, it can stand and call porridge, and when it is poured, it is porridge.

But in the vast majority of cases, the rice in the rice pot can be counted by the number of grains.

There are also those who are about to starve to death, desperately trying to do their jobs.

"This big brother, is the meal after our work the same as the one inside?" Finally, there was a pre-apocalyptic construction site with a ravine-faced old bricklayer salivating.

"How is that possible, that's the soldier's rations, your rations are lowered by a notch, and you all eat big pot rice, but you can eat rice and dry rice casually, this is for sure, give us hope...... I hope to work in a shopping mall, and I will never be hungry. Sun Jiang said proudly.

A famous bricklayer, carpenter, and laborer...... looked at Sun Jiang in front of them with bright eyes, and the delicious food attracted them even more.

A few workers in front of them who had already been selected excitedly followed the soldiers in front of them into the No. 1 shop, set up a stove in the hall, opened a box of canned braised pork, added water and bundles of dried beans, plus oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise and other condiments, added water and began to stew a large pot of vegetables.

Leaving aside the taste, even the fragrance wafting in the air makes them feel a hundred times more energetic.

All the chosen survivors swallowed their saliva and waited for the meal to begin. Now there was only one pot, the second pot was still being prepared, and two fighters outside had already begun to move gas canisters and pots into the house.

A cauldron is divided into twenty people. The smell of rice wafts away, the waves of meat roll, and the survivors who barely see the smell of meat for a year are spoiled.

During the three-hour process, a team of hundreds of people was selected to complete the renovation of the first floor of the mall in three days, and to arrange the counters neatly and open up unnecessary partitions.

The outside of the building should be freshly painted, and the doors and windows will be installed.

Three days is only the first phase of the project, as long as the first floor can barely open, and other detailed renovation work needs to be carried out slowly. Even if it is a shopping mall in the last days, Zheng Yifan also requires that it cannot be shoddy, after all, this is the first face of the hope gathering place to the outside world.

In the case that Zheng Yifan doesn't care about the price and labor, he will definitely achieve the desired effect, but the normal decoration still needs time to be laid.

Fortunately, in the apocalyptic environment, no kind of decoration will delay crazy people from buying bargains, let alone food.

The announcements outside are slowly narrating one news after another, and the most attractive thing is the increase in the purchasing power of the mourning crystal, which has increased by 10 times, and the first-order mourning crystal can be used as 1 dime.

Although it is still not much, it is always an extra income for those mercenary groups, and the price of food is even more obsessive, because as long as the E-grade essence can be exchanged for 20 catties of rice.

Don't be confused, the E-grade essence fruit is the lowest-level thing, and it is called a low-level evolution fruit in the gathering place of Hansui City, and the price of each level of food doubles.

But what attracts them the most is the lowest-level thing, that thing except for desperate people, no one dares to take it, the 21st Division military recruits a large number of people who dare to work hard to eat the lowest-level essence fruit, and then every 100 people can stock a few people in the single digit to serve the 21st Division.

The others were all killed on the spot.

Only when it comes to the top essence fruit can most people dare to gamble, because there is only a success rate of less than 50%.

The inferior success rate made the birth rate of superpowers in the gathering place of Hansui City low, and the huge low-level essence fruit was naturally abandoned by most people.

Now, that garbage can be mixed with huàn into food, which is like a blessing from heaven. Everyone began to silently collect the low-level essence fruits that others had discarded, preparing to try them in three days.

The entire gathering place of Hansui City began to surge, and the waves in the dark were surging. The news spread to every corner like wings, and the poor people smiled at the mourning crystals in their hands, and the merchants who stocked up on the funeral crystals laughed heartily, and occasionally a few mercenary groups waited with scarlet eyes waiting to loot a batch of supplies outside the No. 1 shop.

No matter the wind and waves, Zheng Yifan couldn't be moved, he still ate and drank with Hu Hanhu lightly, and gradually the dishes on the table changed several portions, and now there is Tianjing roast duck, the duck is crystal clear, and the temperature is revealed, and the pieces with thick and greasy duck skin exude a charming fragrance, light and sweet sweet sauce, plus fresh shallots, almost let Hu Han, the old man, bite off his tongue.

Now he felt the strength of the young man in front of him, because this kind of duck was only qualified to be eaten by the mysterious division commander of the 21st Division in the gathering place of Hansui City, and in the most important position in the center of the gathering place, there was a breeding farm, where a small number of livestock were kept in captivity.

That is the hope of the last days, the hope of human reproduction.

Now, only the actual rulers of the gathering place are eligible to eat it.

The large-scale action of this newly established mall has alarmed a variety of characters with unknown numbers. They got the same signal, there was Jiang Long to come to the newly built gathering place of Hansui City.

I don't know who they are, but the only thing I know is that they are powerful, have powerful superpowers, and more likely have a large gathering place.

Because they actually restored some of their industries or occupied towns.
