Chapter 811: 430 inducer
With just half a month left before the New Year, Fang Yuxin and the other two planned to finish their training and return to the Base. However, during their discussion, Bai Ye and Fang Yuyang suddenly proposed going to the Market Base once more. novelbuddy-cσ๓
Fang Yuxin had long forgotten the initial sense of malice she had felt, but Bai Ye and Fang Yuyang hadn’t forgotten. They still remembered how Lin Feiyin had constantly opposed Fang Yuxin. If there was anyone harboring ill intentions towards Fang Yuxin, this woman was definitely one of them, and she could not be tolerated!
Fang Yuxin couldn’t persuade the other two, so she had no choice but to agree.
They traveled swiftly and nimbly by riding mutant beasts and birds, not worrying about the roads being destroyed and impassable. It took them less than a day to reach the outskirts of the Market Base.
When they left last time, they deliberately cleared out the nearby zombies. While they couldn’t completely clean all the Market zombies, they did alleviate a lot of burden for the Market Base. As long as the people in the Base were smart enough, they could definitely use the opportunity to develop the surroundings.
Upon returning to the Market, they found that two small bases had been established near the Market Base. Though each housed roughly ten thousand people and appeared somewhat chaotic, the three could see that these small bases were steadily developing. Given some time, they would stabilize.
However, the food crisis at the Market Base hadn’t been resolved. Although Fang Yuxin’s group had delivered forty tons of food last time, with tens of thousands of people at the Market Base, it wasn’t nearly enough. The food merely helped them last a few extra days.
To solve the food problem, the Market Base almost requisitioned more than half of the Wood Element superpower users to hasten the ripening of food, consuming countless crystal cores just to avoid starvation.
Already predicting the impossibility of truly resolving the Market Base’s food crisis with those supplies, Fang Yuxin’s group decided to repeat the strategy, even adding an extra truck, bringing a total of sixty tons of food.
Upon hearing the news, General Song hurriedly led his people to greet them. With experience from last time, the Market Base’s higher-ups weren’t as panicked or suspicious, warmly welcoming them into the Base. Fang Yuxin handed the prepared price list to General Song, but this time, the prices left General Song feeling a bit troubled.
The situation at the Market Base was far from good. The last time Fang Yuxin’s group was there, even though their price demands weren’t high, it took considerable effort for the Base to gather the items. Now, with Fang Yuxin bringing food again, the prices were still satisfactory, but the Base couldn’t quickly gather the requested items.
General Song looked troubled, hesitated for a moment, then said, "I’ll have people gather these items as soon as possible, but it will take some time. I wonder how long you three can stay at the Base?"
Fang Yuxin checked the time; it was three in the afternoon. She thought for a moment and replied, "As long as we can have everything collected before eight tomorrow morning, we’ll stay over at the Base tonight."
General Song and the other higher-ups of the Base breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Then, General Song personally arranged accommodations for the three, and the place was quite nice, showing genuine hospitality.
After exchanging pleasantries, the three noticed General Song seemed hesitant, wanting to say something but struggling to bring it up. The three exchanged glances, unwilling to make trouble for themselves, so Fang Yuxin pretended not to notice General Song’s difficulty, simply saying, "Although we’ve been here before, we left in a hurry and didn’t get a chance to explore the Base properly. Since we have time now, we’ll go out for a walk."
The other higher-ups in the room quickly signaled to General Song, but he warned them with a glance and slightly shook his head. However, just as the three were about to leave, someone rushed in, gasping, "General, the Base residents heard someone delivered food, and they’ve all gone to the food store to guard it! What should we do? If we don’t release food today, there might be trouble!"
As he spoke, he kept sneaking glances at Fang Yuxin’s group, clearly intending for them to hear.
This situation wasn’t hard to understand either. With a food shortage at the Market Base, even with over a hundred Wood Element superpower users hastening food production, the food crisis couldn’t be resolved. Thus, the food stores at the Base implemented rationing, and daily food supply was fixed; once sold out, it was gone.
