Rebirth Stockpiling: The Little Girl Sweeps Through the Apocalypse

"Um... can we continue to follow you?" Ye Shuyuan looked at Yun Xiaoxiao. She sensed that although this little girl was the youngest in the group, she seemed to have the most authority.

"I also study neurology, perhaps I could be of help," Zhong Mingsheng chimed in. "My apprentice here is very talented, my most promising student. With her assistance, we might be twice as effective."

Yun Xiaoxiao nodded with a smile, "Of course you can, and this nurse sister can come along too."

Since she had decided to establish a base, the daily maintenance and productive development of the base would require people. The more talented individuals, the better.

Of course, the prerequisite was that these people harbored no ill intentions towards her and must be good people. Even if someone had strong professional abilities, they couldn't enter her base if they weren't good.

Having obtained the agreement of the Zhong Mingsheng couple, Yun Xiaoxiao then walked over to Long Zhe and his three companions.

Although they were ordinary, they were good people with a high affinity for her. With proper nurturing, they should find their own places in the base.

There was also Zhang Xiuyan, who had shown concern for her at the dog kennel before.

Though she could be ruthless, she also remembered kindness. She kept the goodwill others showed her in her heart.

Now that she was about to establish a base, the situation was different from before with Feng Xiaoshi. She didn't need these people to follow her around killing zombies, she just needed them to stay at the base and handle production and research for her.

"Are you willing to leave with me?" She had wanted to ask this earlier, but was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Lu Chen and the others.

Zhang Xiuyan nodded without hesitation, "Of course we're willing."

They had overheard Yun Xiaoxiao's conversation with Zhong Mingsheng and the others just now.

They also felt it made a lot of sense.

Their current life at Rongsheng Base was barely scraping by, and they might run out of food at any time.

Even if they didn't run out of food, there were still troublemakers harassing them from time to time.

This kind of life had no zest to it, so they might as well follow this little girl and her group, at least they'd have something to look forward to.

If others didn't mind them, naturally they had no reason to mind the others.

Just as Zhang Xiuyan nodded, a man in his forties approached Yun Xiaoxiao.

"Hello, young friend. I'm the dean of the Rong City Agricultural Science Academy. I wonder if you might need someone in my field where you're going?"

He held out a crumpled work ID to Yun Xiaoxiao.

Yun Xiaoxiao looked him over.

Then she nodded with a smile, "Yes, we do need someone like you."

"If I go there, will I be able to eat my fill?"

"Having enough to eat won't be a problem."

The man's expression relaxed.

"Hah, you've all gone mad. Do you even know where their base is? Maybe they don't even have a base. You're all so eager to go, who knows how you'll end up dying."

Zhong Huainong sneered with disdain.

Zhong Mingsheng's brow furrowed slightly. He had been thinking of asking Yun Xiaoxiao if she would agree to let his younger brother's family come along too.

But this younger brother kept saying unpleasant things, and now he felt too embarrassed to ask.

Never mind, if they thought Rongsheng Base was so good, then let them stay here.

Yun Xiaoxiao couldn't even be bothered to retort to Zhong Huainong's sarcasm.

With people like this, even saying one more word would be a waste of breath.

Yun Xiaoxiao glanced towards the poor district and noticed many people were watching them.

But no one else came forward.

Perhaps they shared the same thoughts as Zhong Huainong and his wife, all thinking she was just a fraud.

Yun Xiaoxiao smiled it off, counted the number of people, and prepared to leave.

Just then, a large truck drove up.

A group of people descended from it, all wearing the uniforms of the security team.

"Who's stirring up negative sentiment here, trying to take away people from our base?" A man wearing glasses swept his unfriendly gaze over the crowd.

When he saw Yun Xiaoxiao, his eyebrows raised slightly.

Yun Xiaoxiao also lifted her gaze.

Wasn't this the glasses-wearing man from the dog kennel?

By the looks of it, he seemed to be doing quite well here.

She glanced at another man beside him who looked like a lackey, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Wasn't this one of the thugs who had been bullying Long Zhe earlier?

It seemed that Long Zhe and the others being targeted wasn't a coincidence, but someone deliberately stirring up trouble.

Clearly, Long Zhe and Zhang Xiuyan had also realized this.

Both their eyes were filled with anger.

The bespectacled man, Yang Fu, arrogantly pointed at Zhang Xiuyan, Zhong Mingsheng and the others.

"They are all people of our Rongsheng Base, they belong to our base's property. If you want to take them away, you must exchange something for them, otherwise... don't blame us for being impolite!"

"Oh? How impolite exactly?" Yun Xiaoxiao gently raised her eyes.

"You'll come in standing and leave lying down!" Yang Fu snorted coldly.

"My, my, this brother has quite the 'breath' on him. The smell is wafting over, ugh~ it's suffocating."

Nie Yizhou fanned in front of his nose, as if he had smelled something foul.

His disgusted expression couldn't have been more obvious.

"How dare you! You dare to mock our Brother Fu, you must be tired of living!"

That lackey thug immediately stepped forward two paces, angrily shouting at Nie Yizhou.

But shouting was all he did, he didn't dare to come any closer.

Just like a dog that barks but doesn't dare to bite.

"Tch, I thought you were something special, but you're nothing much after all."

Nie Yizhou sneered.

Sometimes his words could indeed be quite provocative.

That thug over there was so angered his whole face twisted.

"Disgraceful waste of space, get out of the way."

Yang Fu impatiently kicked the man.

He stared directly at Yun Xiaoxiao and the others, "Anyway, I've said my piece. These people belong to our base. If you dare to take them away, you'll be making enemies of our entire base. You won't be able to leave through these gates!"

"Bullshit! We only belong to ourselves, since when did we become Rongsheng Base's private property? We're people, not objects!" Long Zhe frowned angrily from the side.

"Heh, you've been eating and drinking at the base's expense for so long, and now you think you can just walk away? Where in this world do you find such a good deal?"

"Then we'll pay back everything we've eaten and drunk, how's that?"

"That won't do. Even money in the bank earns interest."

"Then how much do you want?" Long Zhe asked with a grim face.

"You've been at the base for about 40-50 days, eating the base's food, drinking the base's water, living in the base's shelter, and receiving the base's protection. That's worth at least 500 kilos of rice.

There are four of you, so that's 2000 kilos of rice.

If you can produce that, I'll let you go."

Yang Fu's lips curled in a sneer, his manner overbearing.
