Apocalyptic Disaster: I Hoard Billions in Supplies and Kill the Saint

42: Chapter 42 Completely Severing the Past”The base needs crossbows, shotguns, and explosives. We could even consider retrofitting some automated defense turrets; otherwise, if someone comes to raid the base, you won’t be able to defend it at all.”

”Furthermore, the surveillance system shouldn’t just have standard cameras; it needs infrared thermal sensors to ensure that night intruders have nowhere to hide.”

”The drone plan is good, but you’ve only prepared a few units right now. I suggest adding ten more!”

”Not only can they patrol, but they can also be equipped with infrared sensors to detect all living things at night, whether they are zombies or humans.”

”Currently, the water sources include mountain springs, groundwater, and rainwater, all being collected and filtered simultaneously. This will increase the load on the filtration system.”

”The best solution is to establish a three-tier water cycle: direct supply from mountain springs, groundwater as a backup, and filtered rainwater for emergencies.”

Several of Shen Qingyan’s suggestions made Ye Nanxing look at her with newfound respect!

Ye Nanxing listened, nodding slightly, a glimmer of appreciation appearing in her eyes.

”These are good ideas; add them all to the plan.”

She spoke with growing excitement, as if she had found the career she truly loved!

Finally, Shen Qingyan looked up at Ye Nanxing and said earnestly,

”If you can guarantee sufficient funding, then I can guarantee that this base will be the most perfect survival fortress in the Apocalypse!”

Ye Nanxing’s lips curled up slightly.

”Funding is not an issue.”

Shen Qingyan took a deep breath and suddenly smiled.

”Alright, then let’s do this big!”

”It seems that finding you to be in charge of the base renovation was the right choice.”

Shen Qingyan chuckled, leaned back in her seat, and her expression turned sharp.

”Since we’re doing it, we have to do it to the best of our ability.”

After speaking, she immediately opened her tablet, modified the construction plan, and began arranging the new direction for construction.

At this moment, Ye Nanxing felt as if she were seeing the Shen Qingyan who had led her away from the abandoned supermarket in her previous life.

In a high-end apartment in Luo City.

Zhou Yixuan sat on the sofa with a gloomy expression, holding a notice he had just received—

”Following a review by the Industry Committee, Zhou Yixuan has been permanently blacklisted for leaking company secrets and is prohibited from continuing to practice in this industry.”

”All related partner companies have been notified and are prohibited from hiring him.”

This meant he had completely lost his qualification to establish himself in the industry!

”How could this happen... How could this happen...”

His fingers trembled as he gripped the envelope, his face deathly pale, and his forehead covered in cold sweat.

A once-dazzling workplace elite, now swept out the door and turned into a public enemy of the industry?!

He frantically searched for his phone and dialed Zhao Yuanyuan’s number.

”Yuanyuan, did Ye Nanxing report me?! It must be her!”

Zhou Yixuan’s voice was filled with anger and resentment.

On the other end of the line, Zhao Yuanyuan’s tone was casual.

”Report? Oh, you mean that... Who told you to be careless and leave evidence behind earlier?”

Zhou Yixuan’s eyes widened sharply.

”You knew about it all along?!”

Zhao Yuanyuan, however, laughed indifferently, her tone lazy.

”So what if I knew? You weren’t careful in what you did, and since you got caught, you just have to accept it.”

She didn’t care about Zhou Yixuan’s predicament at all, and even felt a bit of disdain.

”I don’t have time to deal with you lately; my bags are about to go up in price! By then, the profit from just one bag will be many times more than that meager salary of yours!”

Zhou Yixuan’s expression twisted instantly!

He finally realized that Zhao Yuanyuan didn’t care about him at all!

He had thought that after losing his job, Zhao Yuanyuan would stay with him and at least offer some comfort, but the reality was—

She only cared about her designer bags!

He had been completely abandoned!

Zhou Yixuan’s hands were shaking, his eyes filled with rage, and he dialed Ye Nanxing’s number directly!

”Ye Nanxing! Did you report me?! Was it you!!”

The moment the call connected, he roared like a wild beast driven to the edge of despair.

However, Ye Nanxing’s tone on the other end of the line was as cold as if she were watching a joke.

”You brought this upon yourself; why blame others?”

Zhou Yixuan’s face flushed red, and he gritted his teeth.

”What exactly do you want?!”

”I don’t want anything.”

Ye Nanxing said indifferently.

”I just want to make you pay the price for your own actions.”

Zhou Yixuan’s breathing was ragged, his eyes filled with madness.

”You poisonous woman! You dare to harm me, I won’t let you go—”

”Beep—”

The call was hung up directly!

Zhou Yixuan froze, then immediately dialed again, only to hear a cold mechanical voice—

”Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently busy...”

Zhou Yixuan: ”...”

An unwilling Zhou Yixuan kept dialing Ye Nanxing’s number, but the result was always the same.

He had actually been blacklisted?!

He was so angry that he smashed his phone against the wall, the anger on his face completely replaced by despair!

Luo City, Emperor Phoenix Hotel.

Ye Nanxing had just woken up and hadn’t even had breakfast yet when her phone vibrated a few times.

She looked down and saw it was a call from the company’s HR manager.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, pressed the answer button, and said calmly.

”What is it?”

On the other end of the line, the HR manager’s tone was not very polite.

”Ye Nanxing, the company requires you to return immediately.”

Ye Nanxing raised an eyebrow.

”Reason?”

The HR manager said directly.

”It’s about your boyfriend, Zhou Yixuan.”

Ye Nanxing’s expression turned slightly cold.

”He and I have already broken up, and we aren’t in the same company. What do his affairs have to do with me?”

The HR manager snorted, her tone carrying a hint of forcefulness.

”But he caused such a huge scene in the industry; now there are rumors outside saying that you were the one who reported him, leading to him being blacklisted from the industry.”

Ye Nanxing: ”So?”

The HR manager’s tone was gloomy.

”You also know that this kind of matter is bad for the company’s reputation and has a very negative impact. The leadership’s intention is that if you don’t come back to cooperate in handling this matter, then the company might... no longer keep you.”

Ye Nanxing laughed out loud, her tone mocking.

”Is this considered a threat?”

”It’s not a threat; it’s a way of handling things.”

The HR manager said coldly.

”If you don’t cooperate, the company will have no choice but to also put you on the industry blacklist. In the future, it probably won’t be possible for you to work in this industry again.”

Ye Nanxing’s smile deepened, but her eyes turned cold.

She had worked so hard in the company for so many years, enduring complaints and working diligently, but in the end, she got this kind of outcome?

She had forced Zhou Yixuan to be blacklisted by the industry, and yet her own company, without distinguishing right from wrong, wanted to blacklist her too?!

She had once treated this company as her own career, working conscientiously and giving it her all, but now she realized that in the face of capital, individual effort was insignificant.

What exactly was she expecting? Expecting the company to be fair? Expecting the boss to be reasonable?

How ridiculous.

”No need to trouble yourselves with firing me; I quit.”
