Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

”Also, there is lubricant; lubricants and greases are widely used for the lubrication of various machines. Without lubrication, almost all machinery cannot operate normally.

And the components in lubricants and greases (butter) are mostly base oils refined from petroleum, with many lubricants containing 90% petroleum. The common lubricants are engine lubricants used in automobile engines, commonly known as motor oil.”

Li Yu was somewhat surprised. Although he knew the importance of petroleum, he hadn’t realized petroleum played such a large role.

Then.

Kong Shuang continued, ”Actually, the fertilizers and pesticides that were produced a few days ago also require petroleum. Moreover, the preservation, coloring, and seasoning of many foods involve petroleum products...”

Faced with this heap of information from Kong Shuang, Li Yu nodded heavily after hearing it.

He wasn’t a deity; it’s impossible for him to be knowledgeable about every industry and field.

Although preparations were made in various aspects when Doomsday just broke out, it still seems somewhat inadequate now.

If he was only bringing along a few survivors, then the medicines and other items hoarded previously would be sufficient.

But now the base needs to expand, which requires achieving one thing.

Self-reliant production; being able to produce these things themselves.

This would be a long-term plan, or else with time passing by, all kinds of external resources will eventually run out completely. It’s better to start research now and then scale up production.

Li Yu listened, his expression growing more serious as he felt this matter should be elevated to the level of future base development strategy.

It’s necessary to achieve self-reliant production of daily necessities and some basic items.

This process might be quite lengthy, and later on will require more manpower and materials. However, first get started, lay the groundwork.

So Li Yu looked at Kong Shuang and said seriously, ”Alright, I understand. Later, you and Bai Jie should write down the list of needed items and give it to me, and I’ll find a way to solve it for you.”

Kong Shuang thanked him, ”Thank you, Director Li.”

Li Yu waved his hand and said, ”No need, you gave me a nice surprise. It’s good. Is there any problem with your and Old Dong’s living situation? Do you need a bigger room?”

Kong Shuang quickly said, ”No, no, we’re living quite well; we don’t worry about food and drink. Thanks for your concern, Director Li. We are already very grateful.”

Upon hearing her say this, Li Yu said nothing more.

He communicated briefly with Ma Di, Bai Jie, and others, mentioning the matter of developing a stronger version of the Zombie Attraction Potion.

Both expressed no problems.

Subsequently, Li Yu was about to leave, and seeing this, Bai Jie quickly said, ”Director Li, I’ll see you off.”

Li Yu glanced at Bai Jie, and when no one was paying attention, Bai Jie winked at him.

Li Yu coughed, intending to refuse by shaking his head, but Bai Jie walked over, whispering closely, ”Director Li, I have some new ideas about the stronger version of the Zombie Attraction Potion to discuss with you.”

Li Yu then nodded and said, ”Alright, let’s talk as we walk.”

Then he walked out of the Research Room, with Bai Jie following behind him.

As for Ma Di and others in the Research Room, they found it normal to see this scene.

After all, Bai Jie was in charge of the entire Research Room currently, so Director Li was reasonable to consult him.

Just like in the workplace before Doomsday, sometimes a big boss would call out a middle manager for a chat, which was normal behavior.

The two had just exited the Research Room when there were several rooms storing raw materials and a lounge next to them.

Li Yu turned his head, about to inquire about the stronger version of the Zombie Attraction Potion, when he felt a small hand touch his chest.

Soon after, Bai Jie looked around.

Standing in front of Li Yu, she lowered her right hand, making a monkey stealing a peach move.

Li Yu frowned, his nose picking up a fragrance that made him swallow a bit.

”Well, we’re here to talk work, don’t mess around.” Li Yu said seriously, in a straightforward manner.

”Hehe~” Bai Jie licked the seductive beauty spot at the corner of her lips, her eyes full of charm.

Under normal circumstances, Bai Jie wore a pair of black glasses, looking very serious and cold, completely different from her coquettish state now.

Holding Li Yu’s sleeve with a small hand, Bai Jie seemed intent on heading to the lounge.

Knowing the workaholic nature of those in the Research Room, Bai Jie knew that they usually wouldn’t go to the lounge.

Li Yu’s sleeve was pulled, feeling internal anxiety.

This was too indulgent and brazen, to be acting so clandestinely under broad daylight, damaging his grand image.

Feeling he couldn’t pull Li Yu any further, Bai Jie’s eyes twinkled, opting for another approach.

Her hand went down, holding onto something on Li Yu’s waist that looked like a belt, walking forward on her own accord.

Damn, such style!

Sigh...

Helplessly, Li Yu could only follow her.

Entering the lounge.

Bai Jie stepped on high heels.

Even squatted down directly.

........

In the middle of the white coat, a sheet of Su Xue.

Accompanied by swaying steps.

Filling from behind, exposing maximum allure.

Li Yu seldom rides horses, but this time the horse got to him.

....

....

Li Yu spat a few mouthfuls of saliva at Bai Jie’s face.

Then put the belt away, looking up at the ceiling and said, ”Speak up; about the stronger version of the Zombie Attraction Potion, what new ideas do you have?”

Bai Jie smeared the saliva evenly, in her view, believing it was a good thing for skincare.

She lit a cigarette for Li Yu, then sat on the table, seemingly indifferent to any exposure.

She began, ”From the last research, I found the Zombie Attraction Potion’s effectiveness can’t be doubted, but any potion has its nemesis.

Recently, I’ve thought of a solvent that can neutralize the stronger version of the Zombie Attraction Potion; it’s not complicated to make. Though untested yet, we can give it a try.”

Li Yu, hearing this, nodded and said, ”Not bad, then try it out. Also, the Zombie Attraction Potion is easily evaporating, think of a way to address this.”

”Okay.” Bai Jie put on glasses, speaking seriously.
