Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus-Chapter 1244 - 761: Bai Jie Has Important Matters to Discuss [5,000-Word Long - ]
They watched the area for a while, and then two people got out of the car and sneaked inside.
Ten minutes later, the two ran out and came to the side of the car to report.
"It seems that this group of killers has indeed left, and they probably won't return here anymore," the leading middle-aged man said.
Then, he said to the two people outside the car, "Get in the car, go back, and tell Brother Dong that those people have left, and we can act more freely now. We've been holding back for a while."
The vehicle started, and amid a cloud of dust, it disappeared at the end of the road.

Big Camphor Tree Base.
Li Yu was in the Inner City, playing with three little wolfdogs.
Whenever he had time, he would train these wolfdogs, and these three wolfdogs were quite intelligent, able to roughly understand some of Li Yu's commands.
Commands like sitting down, fetching something, they could easily accomplish.
As the wolfdogs grew, their bodies became more imposing and tall.
Every morning, when Li Yu went out for exercise, these three wolfdogs would run behind him, never falling behind.
The sight of the three people and a dog weaving through the mountains and forests looked quite impressive.
Li Yu didn't provide the wolfdogs with great food, basically giving them leftovers of whatever the humans ate.
Sometimes, they even learned to hunt birds in the mountains and forests.
It's worth mentioning that during the doomsday, these birds seemed to perceive the horror of zombies and preferred facing humans, so many birds chose to nest around both the inner and outer city of the base.
For the people at Big Camphor Tree Base, food wasn't scarce, so they seldom preyed on these birds. However, occasionally getting a few bird eggs was considered collecting some rent from the birds.
After training these birds, Li Yu straightened up and prepared to head to the Research Room.
The last trip to the Western Alliance showed that the enhanced version of the Zombie Attraction Potion was exceptionally effective, even to the point that Li Yu was shocked.
There was one bottle left from last time, but one bottle wasn't enough.
Li Yu planned to have Bai Jie produce two more bottles for emergencies, as this might be useful against Guan Zhongjin and his group in the future.
Entering May, the weather became increasingly hot, and Li Yu opened the door to the Research Room.
Upon entering, a burst of cool air greeted him, refreshing his spirits.
"Director Li."
"Director Li."
.......
He was greeted by Bai Jie, Xiao Lan, Ma Di, and new member Kong Shuang, who were busy working, and greeted Li Yu one after another.
Li Yu nodded slightly and went over to check out their workstations.
He didn't inquire about the progress of the Zombie Antidote research.
Science experiments are often not as interesting as one might imagine. Most of the time is spent in continuous experimentation, failure, recording, summarizing, and then experimenting again.
The development of a Zombie Antidote was bound to be extremely challenging.
In this regard, Li Yu was not in a hurry and took it slow.
However, when he saw some liquids in glass bottles on the table, he became curious.
There were some small labels on the glass bottles, and he went closer to take a look.
Ammonium laureth sulfate.
???
"What is this? Why does it smell a bit like osmanthus?"
Li Yu looked at Kong Shuang and asked.
Kong Shuang put down the test tube in her hand and said, "Shampoo. Ammonium laureth sulfate is the chemical name for shampoo."
Li Yu felt a bit embarrassed, thinking he seemed a bit ignorant.
But he felt somewhat surprised, as he didn't expect Kong Shuang to be so efficient, having just produced fertilizers and soap a few days ago, and now had even made shampoo.
So he smiled and said, "Not bad, can you introduce me to what those things are?"
Li Yu saw some words he recognized but didn't know what was inside them.
Hearing this, Kong Shuang removed her gloves and walked up to Li Yu, explaining in detail, "This is soap made from chemicals like sodium hydroxide, as well as various detergents, bleach, disinfectant, cosmetics, and deodorizers.
Over there, I've recently been working with Teacher Ma and others on developing some commonly used medicines, such as this semi-synthetic antibiotic synthesized from triethylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline, pyridine, and quinoline.
Also, calcium chloride is used to treat tetany caused by low blood calcium, and likewise, using potassium hydroxide to produce spironolactone, propanoic testosterone, etc.

There are some issues now, mainly with insufficient raw materials. We've tried every means to find alternatives, but the results aren't very good.... ."
Li Yu listened, his satisfaction becoming more evident in his eyes.
Didn't expect to have found such a treasure. With one Kong Shuang, it bridged their gap in the chemical field, and she was an expert in applied fields.
She wasn't just theoretical but could actually produce tangible things.
Upon hearing about the shortage of raw materials, Li Yu furrowed his brows and said, "Alright, it's not a problem. You make a list for me, and I'll have someone collect them for you later, but you need to write it in detail; otherwise, I'm afraid they won't find it or recognize it."
"Okay." Kong Shuang nodded.
Seemingly thinking of something, Kong Shuang said,
"By the way, Director Li, I personally suggest that although the base has some oil, the reserves are too little, and oil is the mother of chemicals, the most important chemical raw material."
"Not only can it be used to produce fuel, but it can also produce plastics, asphalt, clothes, rubber tires, shoes, medicines, and dishwashing detergents."
