Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 611: Chapter 254: Reviving the Wastes, Great Construction Projects

Liang Yuan smiled, looking at Li Yuejin with great interest, and said, ”So the Water-Repelling Talisman Stone came from your hand. Who holds the Water-Repelling Rune?”

Li Yuejin shook his head: ”It’s not with me.”

Liang Yuan looked at Zhuang Shuyuan, whose face was extremely unpleasant, and asked, ”Miss Zhuang, is the Water-Repelling Rune with you?”

Zhuang Shuyuan hurriedly shook her head: ”It’s not with me. Brother Meng... Wu Meng took it away. Mr. Liang, I’ve always managed the matters of the Martial King Pavilion for Wu Meng. My ability is evident to all.”

”Li Yuejin, what do you mean by this now?”

She said, glaring angrily at Li Yuejin, evidently furious at Li Yuejin’s power-grabbing move.

She felt the betrayal.

Li Yuejin looked at Zhuang Shuyuan and said, ”Miss Zhuang, ask yourself, in the past half year, who has been pushing forward the matters of the Martial King Pavilion?”

”You’re lying. I built the Martial King Pavilion single-handedly. How could it have become your credit?” Zhuang Shuyuan instantly bristled and shouted angrily.

Li Yuejin smiled and shook his head, saying, ”Miss Zhuang, you just moved your lips. How many things did you personally handle and get done?”

”The person truly responsible for pushing the work forward is me. You might as well ask around. Do more survivors of the Martial King Pavilion acknowledge me or you?”

”You—” Zhuang Shuyuan’s face changed immediately, pointing at Li Yuejin, her face pale with rage.

Li Yuejin solemnly said, ”Miss Zhuang, times have changed. Wu Meng is gone. The Martial King Pavilion cannot be led by a person with no combat value.”

”I’m not seeking to wrest power from you. I just want to demonstrate my value to Mr. Liang. I want to show Mr. Liang that I can accomplish something, making it convenient for him to assign me tasks.”

”Mr. Liang, instead of assigning me some menial work, perhaps letting me craft talisman stones would be more valuable.”

”Of course, if you trust me, you could also let me select some people to help construct the Yangshan Shelter.”

”I assure you, under your leadership, I will perform even better than during the Martial King Pavilion era.”

Zhuang Shuyuan became very anxious and looked at Liang Yuan hurriedly: ”Mr. Liang, you might not be fully aware of my abilities; I possess Mind Reading skills and can perceive others’ thoughts.”

”With me around, I can distinguish who truly submits to you, who harbors resentment, and who has ulterior motives.”

”Although my combat skills are lacking, I can definitely be very helpful in constructing the shelter.”

Liang Yuan looked at the anxious expressions of the two and couldn’t help but laugh.

”I understand your abilities. I will arrange appropriate posts for you in the future.”

”But the urgent task now is to fulfill your responsibility as the defeated party.”

”You wouldn’t think that your scheming against me before would just be brushed over, right?”

”Serve for a month first. After a month, I will reassign identities and positions.”

”Now, go to your shelters and bring all the survivors here.”

”I want to construct a commercial complex and a large shelter.”

Zhuang Shuyuan and Li Yuejin glanced at each other and then bowed their heads helplessly.

Defeated ones must face punishment.

A month’s service was already considered merciful from Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan estimated that, with nearly a thousand people, the commercial complex and the large shelter he aimed to build should be completed quickly.

Note that this team of nearly a thousand people included not only ordinary people but also many Superpower Users.

These Superpower Users, even if they aren’t Strength Type, have significantly increased constitution and strength after awakening.

Doing some physical work is quite easy.

Soon, people from all three shelters were concentrated in the Fire Bamboo Forest.

Under Liang Yuan’s instructions, the patrol team continued handling patrol affairs, and Han Xiangman’s team supervised the work.

The over thousand people started major construction in this valley, building the shelter and the commercial complex.

First, they cleared the weeds and trees in the valley.

This was the easiest part, which ordinary people could do.

Then came the planning of farms, slaughterhouses, planting areas, living areas, and so on within the region.

The valley was large enough, with the living areas mostly constructed from bamboo and trees.

The muddy ground also needed leveling. The rocks dug from the cliffs would be laid on the valley floor to form neat paths.

During this process, everyone in the shelter was reorganized, getting familiarized, divided, and cooperating, beginning to gradually know one another again.

Liang Yuan’s move not only solved the construction of the commercial complex but also addressed the issues embedded in these people.

As time gradually passed, Liang Yuan’s team started discovering their individual talents.

Some people who had worked as laborers and masons, with cement working experience, were assigned to the bamboo house construction.

Elderly individuals with farming and flower planting experience were handed over to Granny Li and her group for unified arrangement by Song Wen.

People with experience in raising pigs and other farming were allocated to the farms.

Those who could cook were assigned to the temporary cafeteria to make large pot meals for everyone.

Yet, those with management and administrative experience were of no major use at the moment and had obediently been digging and moving bricks.

These people naturally couldn’t be made managers in the short term.
