Ye Xiao struggled for a while and felt that it must be his illusion. Even if she was being treated like a child, it was just a sign that she loved him.
After thinking about this, I realized that the distance between the two of them seemed too close. Did they sleep in each other's arms like this all night
The progress was a bit fast and Ye Xiao was a bit confused. Most importantly, he felt that this was a very serious and meaningful progress, but now it was completed in a muddle, which made him feel a bit guilty and a bit regretful.
They haven’t announced their relationship to everyone yet, haven’t decorated a better room, haven’t chosen a special day, haven’t had a date, promise and proposal full of rituals, and haven’t gotten married yet…
Stop! Ye Xiao stopped his associations and pressed his head. He felt that he had been affected by the six hours last night and had not fully recovered yet. His mind was dizzy.
Lin Tantan was awakened by the slightest noise. As soon as she woke up, she saw him holding his head. She was startled and immediately worried: "Are you still feeling uncomfortable?"
Ye Xiao put down his hand, looked at her, and unnoticeably stepped back and sat up: "No, thank you for your hard work last night."
Lin Tantan also sat up, and then found that her left arm was completely numb. Ye Xiao hurriedly pinched her arm and said, "You don't have to accommodate me like this. Next time I rest my head on your arm, you will push me away." He suddenly paused and changed his words, "Next time, just ignore me and go back to sleep."
He was too tired last night and couldn't hold on, otherwise he should have let her go back and rest first.
Lin Tantan was thinking about something else: "You are working too hard. I don't know how many days this situation will last. Why don't you get rid of the poison?"
She told him the principle she used to treat Mei Baisheng, and said that they could try to use the same method to drain out the strange energy from his body.
Ye Xiao fell silent, holding her arm in his hand without saying anything for a while.
Lin Tantan was wearing a thin sweater with long sleeves, but if you looked through the edge of the sleeves, you could see the mutilated part of his left arm. Ye Xiao respectfully didn't look at it, and deliberately avoided pinching his arm. Now he gently held it through the sweater: "So you channeled the zombie energy into your body?"
Although he had guessed a little bit, he still felt upset when he thought about it. He frowned and said, "So this time, you plan to direct this energy to yourself?"
"Well… "
"And then cut a piece off for yourself?"
"This..." Why does this sound so strange? Lin Tantan scratched his face, "Look, my hand is slowly growing better, it's almost grown to the wrist."
Ye Xiao estimated the length through the sweater and found that it was indeed the case. He asked carefully: "Can I take a look?"
Lin Tantan's answer was to roll up her sleeves and say, "Look, look." Her attitude was very generous. Although she also thought the stump was a bit ugly, Ye Xiao had seen it before.
Ye Xiao: “…” Ye Xiao felt it was very strange. Sometimes she would be shy and uncomfortable when being with him, but most of the time she was very carefree, as if she was treating him like a brother.
Every time he felt pity, he couldn't find a place to put it, and instead felt a little ridiculous.
He looked at her arms openly. These arms had been hidden in her clothes and had never seen the sun, so they were exceptionally white, tender and healthy. They felt a little fleshy to the touch and felt particularly good.
Ye Xiao coughed and looked at the damaged part. It wasn't ugly, but it was a bit weird. It had grown at least three centimeters longer than when the injury was first caused. It was almost reaching the wrist. It could be predicted that it would not be too far away for the entire palm to grow out.
If such a strange thing happened to someone else, Ye Xiao might find it strange, but when it happened to Lin Tan Tan, it seemed natural because she herself was a very strange existence.
He was happy for her, but he still warned her: "It's a good thing that it can grow back, but don't think that it's okay to cut it off again if it grows back. Do you think you are a melon?"
Lin Tan Tan: “…” She widened her eyes, unable to believe that she was being teased.
Ye Xiao ruffled her hair with amusement, ruffling her hair even more. "Anyway, don't even think about channeling my energy, and don't use the same method to treat anyone else. I absolutely don't agree."
Lin Tantan frowned: "But..."
"Don't worry for now, this poison should be good for me." Ye Xiao said again.
Lin Tan was surprised: "What do you mean?"
A thoughtful look appeared on his face. "I feel like it's transforming my body. I can't explain it clearly for now, but it should be beneficial and not harmful."
Lin Tantan wanted to ask in detail when there was a knock on the door. Lin Tantan was still stuck in his speculation about that strange energy. Since Ye Xiao said it was beneficial and harmless, it should really be beneficial and harmless.
I've only heard of someone eating some mutated or supernatural materials that changed his physique and gained some kind of opportunity. It turns out that the supernatural power of a sinister and skinny man can have such an effect. If the effect is true, then that man should have become an inexhaustible source of energy for body transformation!
This person could have become a treasure to guard the base, but they killed him? No, he should have killed himself.
What a waste!
Thinking about all this in a mess, she subconsciously went to open the door, completely forgetting whose room it was.
Then he opened the door and there was no one outside. He looked outside and saw that it was Jiang Xiaotian knocking on the door next door.
Jiang Xiaotian, holding his stomach with a pale face, widened his eyes, looked at Lin Tantan, whose hair was messy and clothes were wrinkled, and who had obviously just climbed out of bed, and then looked at the two rooms: "I, am I hallucinating? Tantan, are you in this room? Oh, never mind, Tantan, I ate the pork rib soup downstairs, and now it feels like there is a stone in my stomach, oh, am I going to die!"
He held his stomach, his face uglier than a ghost. He rushed over and climbed onto Lin Tantan's shoulders, hanging on to her uncontrollably.
He really couldn't hold on any longer. Walking up the stairs took all his strength.
Before he could hang it on Lin Tantan, a strong hand stretched out from behind Lin Tantan and picked him up. Ye Xiao's serious face appeared with a frown: "How much did you eat to make yourself like this?"
Jiang Xiaotian was stunned. He looked at Lin Tantan and then at Ye Xiao whose clothes were even more wrinkled: "You, you..." Before he could say anything, his eyes rolled back and he fell down.
As if he was frightened and fainted.
Lin Tan Tan: “…” Is it necessary to do this? They just came out of a room, could the impact be so great
She began to feel embarrassed after being disturbed by this. She didn't even look at Ye Xiao's expression. She looked at Jiang Xiaotian's condition and said, "It's no big deal. He just ate too much supernatural food and couldn't digest the energy in it. His stomach is bloated. Help him vomit it out first. Ahem, I'll go change my clothes first."
Having said that, he slipped away.
Ye Xiao looked at his clothes that had become like pickled mustard greens due to being soaked in water, and then looked at Jiang Xiaotian who was like a dead pig. He could only resign himself to his fate and drag the man up, and wake him up without any gentleness, and let him induce vomiting by himself.
Lin Tantan changed his clothes and washed up when he came out. Jiang Xiaotian had already finished vomiting and was sitting on the sofa. His eyes were red and his skin was pale, like a rabbit. He seemed to be in a trance and looked very pitiful.
Lin Tan Tan treated him: "How much have you eaten? Your stomach is about to break."
"It smells good!" Jiang Xiaotian rubbed his eyes. He finally came back from work and saw a big pot of meat soup. He ate a big bowl of it and went to sleep happily. Then he was woken up by stomachache.
"For things with special powers, it's okay if you eat a little, but if you eat too much you will have problems. There are such patients in the clinic. Some have died directly because they ate too much without knowing it." Lin Tan Tan said to him.
Jiang Xiaotian shrank his neck and said, "It's so miserable without superpowers. You can die from eating. Sigh." Then he started to gossip and flirt, "You and the captain, hey, when can we have a wedding banquet?"
Lin Tan Tan was stunned. Ye Xiao heard this and put one hand on Jiang Xiaotian's shoulder to lift him up: "Does your stomach feel better? If so, go and get some sleep." He is getting more and more out of line. What are you talking about? "Tan Tan is helping me with my treatment. Don't think about random things."
He glanced at Lin Tan and said, "But the wedding banquet will happen sooner or later."
This was a declaration of their relationship. Lin Tan was hesitant to speak, but in the end he said nothing. Jiang Xiaotian looked as if he had received an order and left happily. He planned to take a stroll before going to sleep. When he reached the back of the villa, he heard a splash, followed by a scream: "Ah, when did there become a puddle here!"
Puddle? What puddle? Lin Tantan suddenly remembered, could it be the water he pumped down from the second floor yesterday? He changed a tank of water every few minutes, and it took four or five hours to do so. It was indeed a large amount.
She ran to the backyard and saw a huge pit that had appeared out of nowhere. It was filled with water. San Gen and the mutant rats were swimming happily in it. It went without saying that they had dug the pit. It was very likely that they had been digging the pit right below her while she was pouring water down yesterday.
And now there was another Jiang Xiaotian splashing around in the puddle, and the little ones all stared with wide eyes at his performance.
…
After breakfast, Lin Tantan and Ye Xiao went out together. There was going to be a meeting today, and Ye Xiao asked Lin Tantan to go along.
Arriving at the construction site, the fence has been completed. The lower half is a solid wall, and the upper half has some beautifully shaped hollows, with sharp stone spikes on top, and an electric fence. Directly in front are two large iron gates, and there is a security room next to the iron gates, which is guarded 24 hours a day.
Lin Tantan opened his mouth wide: "When I was here before, I only finished half of it, but you have finished it all today?"
The car stopped at the gate, and the people in the security room came out to see, and only let him in after seeing that it was Ye Xiao. Although the road was muddy, it was very solid and flat, and the car drove steadily and stopped in front of the completed building facing the gate. In fact, it was not a building, but a central function building, and its status was the core of this place.
Lin Tan Tan got out of the car and looked up at the building. It had three floors in total. Although it was only covered with cement and not painted or tiled, compared to most of the buildings in the base that were crooked or even looked like slum-like dilapidated houses, this one was still very impressive.
The first floor is tall and large, with a large conference hall that can accommodate more than a hundred people, as well as a small meeting room and a reception room.
The second and third floors are all office areas, divided into many offices with different functional attributes, some in charge of population information, some in charge of weapons, some in charge of material resource allocation, some in charge of warehouses, some in charge of medical care, some in charge of supernatural power consultation, some in charge of professional positions, some in charge of market transactions... It looks very much like the real thing.
In particular, these offices are not only covered with cement, but also putty. The doors and windows are also genuine wooden doors and aluminum windows. The whole place is square and bright.
Lin Tantan walked around all these areas and felt amazed: "This is too well done." She had been to Lu Jianping's office building, and it wasn't as good either.
Ye Xiao smiled behind her and said, "This building is our facade, so we naturally have to put in some effort. But time is too short and materials are limited, so it's just barely acceptable. I'll have a chance to make it better in the future."
Lin Tan Tan said: "The current situation is special, this is already very good."
Coming down from upstairs, Ye Xiao pointed to the two-story building under construction on the left side of the building: "That's the clinic for you."
Lin Tantan was a little surprised: "This scale is a bit big, right?"
"Build it first. If you want to build a bigger one, then build a bigger one. If you want to build a smaller one, the extra space can always be used for other purposes. The small building behind the clinic is for weapons research and development." Ye Xiao pointed to the right side of the functional building and said, "That's the cafeteria, trading area, and water plant."
Lin Tantan looked at the house being built over there. There was nothing there before, but now a floor is being built.
The large piece of land behind the functional building is also full of houses under construction. Most of them are residential areas. There are also several large warehouses, which are warehouses for storing food, weapons and other supplies. They are already well maintained and are being guarded by people.
Further back, near the mountainside, is a planting area of moderate size.
Even though he had a general understanding of the layout here before, when he looked at it now, Lin Tantan still had a different feeling in his heart. It was the feeling of watching his own home being built bit by bit.
Ye Xiao looked at her and suddenly said, "Let's talk. What do you think we should call this place?"
"Huh?"
"Others have the name of the Youth League, the name of the Red Eagle Gang, so we should have a name as well."
Lin Tantan's mind suddenly twitched: "Qinglong Gang."
Ye Xiao: “…”
"Hahaha, I'm just kidding. What name do you think is good?"
Ye Xiao didn't want to come up with a name that had too much banditry, nor did he want to come up with a name that had tribal undertones, such as Flying Eagle and Fiery Flame. He just followed the crowd and thought about hope and unity. He originally wanted to use the two words Chaoyang, but he felt that they were too weak, so he took the word Yang, which means sunshine and hope.
“The word yang is good, it’s especially righteous and warm,” said Lin Tantan.
Ye Xiao's mind moved: "Then let's call him Zhengyang."
Lin Tantan was stunned for a moment. This name, which appeared several years after the end of the world, actually appeared now. Then she laughed: "That's good. No matter what time, you should be upright, be an upright person, always have expectations for hope, and work hard for it. This has a good meaning."
Ye Xiao also smiled. They indeed had the same idea.
After a while, more and more people came, so Ye Xiao took Lin Tan to the large conference hall.
There was a long table on the stage and several seats below. Lin Tantan was taken directly to sit at one of the tables, and then watched people walk in one by one. There were people he knew, such as Jiang Zhongyi, Mingze, Yang Xinyu, Zhao Yidan, Fan Fang... but most of them were strangers.
Those who were notified to come here today were all core members. After everyone was seated, Ye Xiao began to speak. He first explained the current situation of the entire world and the country: how many people had died around the world, how many people had died across the country, how many provincial and municipal governments no longer existed, and the capital, the heart of the country, was also in chaos. Now, bases throughout the country have formed new power units, and only about half of them are under the official control.
Lin Tan Tan looked at him, not knowing where he got so much detailed information. In short, the point was that the conditions were harsh now. Zombies, mutated plants and animals, and even humans themselves could pose a huge threat to survival. If we want to survive, we must unite.
It was a lot of blah blah, but not a single word of nonsense. It was the first time that Lin Tantan knew that Ye Xiao was so eloquent. It was just like a mobilization meeting. She was so excited listening to him, and the people in the audience were even more excited. They were just about to stand up and shout slogans saying that they were willing to sacrifice their lives to build their own home.
She couldn't help but recall the first time she saw Ye Xiao give a speech when she was very young. She watched the only surviving video footage of him, which was only a little over a minute long and the picture was a little blurry. Those powerful words made her admire this man and regard him as her guide and beacon in the most difficult and painful period of her life when she was about to give up.
And now, she was sitting in a similar scene in person. She felt a little dazed, a little sad, but more importantly, she was filled with pride from the bottom of her heart.
Ye Xiao made a summary at the end, saying that from today on, their Zhengyang Brigade was officially established, and everyone present was the veterans of Zhengyang, and they should unite and so on.
Everyone was very excited and applauded.
Then comes the allocation of functions.
Four leaders were announced before the functions were assigned.
Ye Xiao is naturally the captain, Bai Cheng is the vice-captain, Xu Qin is also the vice-captain, Lin Tan Tan...
Hey, when Lin Tantan heard her name, she looked at Ye Xiao in surprise. She is also the deputy captain
However, it is obvious that she and Xu Qin's deputy captain position is mainly honorary. As for their main functions, she is responsible for the entire medical aspect and supernatural power consultation, while Xu Qin is responsible for weapons research and development, which are both very important parts.
The real leaders are still Ye Xiao and Bai Cheng. Ye Xiao is responsible for the overall decision-making, while Bai Cheng is in charge of all aspects. He is basically in charge of everything and is a real manager. This is consistent with her memory.
Then it was further subdivided into combat team, medical team, planting team, logistics team, construction team, information technology team, weapons research and development team, law enforcement team, administrative management team, etc. These lists were reported by Bai Cheng. Some of the lists were too long, so he skipped them and posted them for public notice later.
Lin Tantan took the list and looked at it. It was amazing. Ye Xiao had said before that there were more than 2,000 core members, and they were all divided into different groups. No one was idle, including their families. Many of them were also divided into different types of logistics teams.
She found her own medical team and saw that she was the team leader, Mingze was the deputy team leader, and there were only a dozen people on the list behind them, all of whom were familiar wood-type psychics, the kind she had given them meetings and lessons before. She sighed, her medical team was really small and lacked talent.
Members of these functional groups have mandatory tasks to complete, which are the obligations and responsibilities of the Zhengyang Brigade members.
For example, the combat team is divided into many groups. Which group will leave the base today, and which group will patrol and watch the night tomorrow? There will be a shift schedule. You must obey orders when on duty, and you can do whatever you want when it is your turn to rest. For example, in the medical team, who needs to be on duty today and how long, after the shift, you can go out to take private work or go home to sleep. For example, a lady with water ability is assigned to the administrative management team and works in the office. After get off work, she goes to the water plant to sell water to supplement her family income. This is also completely allowed and encouraged.
Of course, due to different positions, the rewards that can be obtained are naturally different. For example, the weapons research and development team can be allocated better housing, while the logistics team will definitely be worse; for example, the combat team's family members will have preferential treatment, while other teams may have to rely on themselves to support their families.
Therefore, we still encourage everyone to work harder, tap their potential, and then transfer to a better team.
Lin Tan Tan looked at the paper documents and listened to Bai Cheng explaining the rules to everyone, nodding his head in his heart. This semi-mandatory and semi-free system is very good. It prevents the group from being too lazy, and it also prevents complaints from being too strict. The most important thing is that no matter what you do, as long as it is beneficial to the team, you can gain benefits through various channels.
"Finally, there is one very important point. You may be wondering, what does the law enforcement team do?" After Bai Cheng finished speaking, Ye Xiao spoke again, "Qin Han, leader of the law enforcement team, please tell me about your main responsibilities."
Qin Han stood up. Lin Tantan found that he looked familiar. He was the man who was rescued from the Public Security Bureau by Ye Xiao in Yang City. It was said that he was a veteran. This man looked upright and spoke about his scope of authority in a serious manner.
That is to say, they will take care of all kinds of people, such as stealing, robbery, fighting, disobedience, and doing things that damage the collective interests. Once they are caught, as long as there is solid evidence, they will be dealt with according to the brigade regulations. Those who should be fined will be fined, those who should be expelled will be expelled, and there are even special prisons waiting for those people to stay, and they will also have to undergo labor reform. If it is an extremely serious incident such as rape and murder, they will be shot directly.
After he finished speaking, the entire conference room fell silent. Many people looked at each other and whispered to each other, probably because they had not expected such a thing to happen.
If we talk about which aspect has suffered the most serious damage in the end times, the judiciary will definitely have a seat at the table. Take the Ningshi base for example. Even though it is considered good in the eyes of Ding Jinbo and others, the discipline and norms of the entire base are still very poor, and there are many cases of killing, looting and robbery in private.
The base simply didn't have the energy to take care of these things. What could they do to those who broke the law? They had to manage their rations even if they were locked up. How could they afford to waste so much food? So if they caught someone with minor offenses, they would be fined and their food and supplies would be confiscated. If they were caught with serious offenses, they would be executed directly. This was also meant to serve as a warning to others.
Ye Xiao is not the manager of the base, so he does not have any worries in this regard for the time being, but there is no order without rules. It is still necessary to introduce some disciplinary measures within the group under his control.
Ye Xiao said: "During this special period, the rules and regulations mentioned here cannot be copied from before the end of the world. The professional judicial personnel in the law enforcement team can add or reduce regulations at any time according to the actual situation. Of course, there will be a public announcement period. If you think it is inappropriate, you can raise objections during the public announcement period. After the public announcement period, it will be officially included in the team's regulations and everyone must abide by it. If you can't accept this, you can quit the Zhengyang Team at any time."
No one spoke, and because of this, the overall atmosphere became more solemn. Ye Xiao was satisfied, and the meeting was almost coming to an end. Finally, Ye Xiao said that the residential building had not been built yet, so everyone should continue to live in their original places, and when they could move in, everyone would move together.
Then Bai Cheng called out to the leaders of each group to come up and get the list, and go find the team members themselves, and give a speech or a mobilization speech.
Lin Tantan's team has only a dozen or so members, most of whom work in the clinic near the villa area. Of course, there is no need to mobilize them in a hurry. She is thinking about how to arrange these dozen people after the clinic in Zhengyang is completed and opened.
Whether the internal clinic is busy or not depends on how many injuries and illnesses the team members have. Internal diagnosis and treatment do not get much remuneration. After all, it is an internal friendly price. They just collect some crystal cores as a token of their appreciation, which is enough to offset the energy consumed. Therefore, the external clinic must continue to operate. How can they not make extra money
The allowances and benefits that the medical team can get from the brigade as usual can only allow the team members to live an ordinary life. If they want to improve their quality of life or even the status of the team, she, as the team leader, has to come up with other ideas. This is true for every team.
Also, there were too few people. Even Xu Qin's weapons research and development team had more people than hers, which was too shabby. After the meeting, Ye Xiao was busy, so Lin Tantan called Mingze outside to discuss how to recruit more capable and trustworthy talents.
Mingze was at a loss: "How about looking for one among those wood-type psychics we hired in our clinic?"
Lin Tan thought about it and it seemed that this was the only way. At least those were the ones he had more contact with, so he knew them a little bit and it was easier to observe them.
"The brigade also needs to recruit more people, so let's post a recruitment notice for the medical team." Lin Tan said with a sigh, "I originally thought Shao Ping was good, but I didn't expect... Talent is hard to come by."
Mingze froze for a moment, lowered his head and said: "Ms. Lin..."
"Call me team leader, not Miss Lin." Lin Tan corrected him.
Mingze readily agreed: "Team Leader, there is something I want to tell you."
Seeing his seriousness, Lin Tantan also became serious.
Mingze's story is very simple. He grew up in a single-parent family and depended on his father for everything. However, his father was killed in a car accident. The perpetrator was driving under the influence of alcohol, but the matter was suppressed because his family was rich and powerful.
Mingze always remembered this grudge. When he grew up and became a doctor, he met the perpetrator again. He was filled with hatred. He knew that the perpetrator had heart failure and long-term constipation, but he still changed his constipation medicine. Not long after, the perpetrator defecated too hard due to constipation and died of an acute myocardial infarction.
Lin Tan Tan: “…”
Lin Tantan had a strange expression on her face: "Constipation is indeed very painful." She once had a very wealthy patient who had been suffering from constipation for a long time. He tried all kinds of medicines, but they were effective at first but became less and less effective over time. Finally, he came to her. After she treated him, it was said that he defecated several kilograms of poop for several days in a row. After that, he lost 20 to 30 kilograms, his complexion improved, his stomach was no longer bloated, and his appetite improved. When he came for a follow-up visit, he cried bitterly and was very grateful to her, which shows how much pain he was in.
Mingze: “…” Is this the point
Lin Tantan looked at Mingze with a complicated look and sighed, "It's hard for me to comment on this matter. Since the laws before the end of the world failed to punish you, I won't ask you to die because of this. Don't do this kind of thing again in the future. If you hurt others like this again under my control, I can only ask you to leave."
Mingze felt a little ashamed: "No, that person owed my father a life, but escaped the punishment of the law, so I... I have no grudges against other people, and I will never do that again."
Lin Tan Tan raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "I don't care about what happened in the past, but the world is different now, and there are more scumbags. If you really meet a bad guy, you can't just swallow your anger. You should kill him if you should, but don't use your supernatural power that is supposed to save people to kill people. It would be bad if you get addicted or leave a trauma behind."
Mingze was confused: "What should I do then?"
"Tell me now, I will use another superpower to kill him." Lin Tan Tan smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Mingze once again realized that his team leader was a fierce guy.
After speaking out the secret buried deep in his heart, he felt much better and no longer had to worry about anyone using this to threaten him in the future. He knew that he was guilty, but he was also selfish and didn't want this to affect his current life. He would save many people to make up for the sin of killing people with his profession. If he couldn't make up for it, then they would settle the score with him after he died.
He smiled gratefully at Lin Tan. Ye Xiao came out of the meeting room and saw them standing together, smiling at each other. He narrowed his eyes slightly and walked over: "Tan Tan, Mingze."
Lin Tantan told Ye Xiao that she wanted to recruit more people. Ye Xiao agreed, saying that the medical team was indeed too small.
Mingze said that he was going back to the clinic to do some work. Looking at his back, Ye Xiao looked at Lin Tan again and couldn't help asking, "Do you really prefer his type?"
Lin Tan Tan almost choked on his own saliva and looked at him with wide eyes: "Why are you still entangled in this?"
Ye Xiao looked like he was making sense: "Because I am really worried, and you have acquiesced to it before."
Lin Tan thought to herself that it was a tacit agreement, but she didn't want this misunderstanding to become a knot in Ye Xiao's heart, so she had to say it clearly: "I don't like his type. He looks too weak. I don't like him either. He only has a wood-related ability. Apart from being able to save people, he can't handle danger. I don't like him."
The more she talked, the more Ye Xiao's mouth curled up. She found it funny and was happy to make him happy: "I appreciate you more like this."
Ye Xiao looked at her: "You said you wanted him to be your boyfriend."
Lin Tan Tan: "..." Why is this person so petty? She said: "I just said it casually when my mind was agitated. At that time, I wanted to use this as an excuse to refuse your coming, but I regretted it immediately and never mentioned it again."
Ye Xiao was finally satisfied. Lin Tan Tan quickly changed the subject and asked him if it was not a good idea to let her be the deputy captain. Someone like Zhong Xiong couldn't be the deputy captain, and he was also a veteran in their team.
Ye Xiao told her not to worry about it. Zhong Xiong didn't like to worry about these things. Besides, he didn't have any special abilities, which was indeed a flaw. He also felt that he couldn't suppress others. It would only be troublesome to have a deputy captain. As for Mei Bosheng and the others, they were not experienced in their seven-member team, so they didn't even think about being deputy captains.
"As for you, you are worthy of being the deputy captain, and they all know that you are a five-element psychic, so they won't have any ideas."
"I know everything, ahem. But even if I have many abilities, I don't have to be the vice-captain."
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Then think of it this way. You can't hide the fact that you are a five-element superpower. If people see your ability, you can't even be a deputy captain in the Zhengyang Brigade. You can only be the leader of the medical team. It's not good."
I see. Lin Tan thought about it and decided that she deserved to be the mascot.
In this way, the "Zhengyang Brigade" was officially established on this day, and soon the entire base knew about it. They also knew that they were still expanding their enrollment. Although the conditions for joining the team were relatively harsh and had to go through many reviews, it was heard that food and accommodation were provided, various benefits and welfare were excellent, the development prospects were good, and the internal functions were so detailed that the team was well organized and prosperous on the first day of its establishment, so many people wanted to join.
A lot of people came to submit applications to join the team. Fortunately, the Population Information Office of the brigade management group set up an office specifically for recruitment. A large number of people were responsible for various reviews and visits, trying not to miss out on good talents and also trying not to let people with ulterior motives get in.
On the day when the Zhengyang Brigade was established, a newly formed construction team was pulled out and started looking for a place outside the wall to lay the foundation and build a house.
There is no other way. The houses built on that piece of land are really not enough for 5,000 people to live in. We had planned to squeeze in before, but now the land is bigger and there is no need to squeeze in together, not to mention that there will be more people in the future.
The land that Ye Xiao got from Lv Jianping the second time was quite large, covering several streets, but he only wanted the right to use the area, which meant he could build houses on it at will. He would not care about the people who originally lived here, nor would he ask them to move away. However, if he wanted to free up enough land to build houses, he would inevitably have to demolish some old houses. So the demolition office came into being, responsible for communicating with the old residents, building new houses for them, and compensating them for their old houses.
The people living here simply couldn't believe that such a good thing could happen and were extremely happy. Who wouldn't want to live in a sturdy and spacious cement house like the one in Zhengyang Brigade, even if the conditions were a little worse? Not to mention that Zhengyang Brigade would also provide certain material compensation.
When people from other places heard such good news, they regretted not choosing this place when they chose to live. Now if they want to get involved, there will be no such good thing - the original residents can continue to live here, but if others want to move in, it depends on Ye Xiao's opinion.
While the Zhengyang Brigade continued its vigorous construction, another wave of mercenaries arrived at the Ningshi base. They were more professional than the five people led by Ding Jinbo. They made plans A, B, and C, and their division of labor was very clear. It was clearly arranged who would inquire and who would follow, and then they entered the base with confidence.
But they didn't know that a group of their colleagues had already failed here before them. Ye Xiao greatly increased his vigilance and stuffed his people into the team guarding the base gate. These people were particularly sensitive to the strange faces that came to the base every day, and all strangers would be carefully observed and questioned.
Even though this group of mercenaries tried hard to conceal their aura and act like ordinary people, they still looked down on this small base and failed to disguise themselves very well.
As a result, they couldn't even get through the first hurdle and were detained one after another. Even if they pretended not to know each other, it was useless. The people Ye Xiao sent to guard the gate were naturally extremely sharp. Among them were veteran criminal police and private detectives with many years of experience, and their vision and experience were all top-notch.
In the evening of that day, Ye Xiao was informed that a group of people had been arrested. He went to interrogate them personally and found out that they were indeed mercenaries who came for Lin Tantan. There was a private organization in the capital behind them and it had nothing to do with Min Yande. Naturally, he had no idea about the magic machine.
As for how to deal with these people? There were seven of them in the group. It seemed inhumane to just kill them. Ye Xiao thought about it and said, "Isn't there not enough cement for construction now? Let's all go and help burn cement."
