“Your plan is really good. You have it all figured out.”
“Don’t tell me you want me to be a fool and rush to the front to block bullets for you just because you said a few nice words?”
“What does your life and death have to do with me? I’m not afraid to tell you that they came for me on the first day. The explosion you heard was them blowing up my door.”
“Ha, I’m sorry to disappoint you. My door is very strong. They couldn’t even blow it up with a bomb. 1 even killed a few of their accomplices.”
“I’m very safe, so whether you die or not has nothing to do with me. I’m not interested in caring about you either.”
Zhao Hao panicked. “Please, Little Ye! We will definitely listen to you!”
“We’re going to die anyway like this! When they come to our house, they might kill us too. Why don’t we all go all out and fight?! We might even have a chance to live!”
“If they won’t fight with you, I’ll fight with you! I’ll listen to you! I’ll do whatever you want me to do!”
Zhao Hao’s words made everyone panic.
They were all hoping that Zhao Hao would come and settle this. Now, even this leader wanted to follow Ye Xingchen and abandon them. What should they do then?
“What are you hesitating for? With so many of us, we can kill them with a single punch! Do we have to wait for them to break into our house with knives and axes and hack us to death one by one?”
Zhao Hao’s fanning the flames was indeed effective. Many people in the group had already begun to waver.
Because what he said was indeed true. Even if they were lucky enough to escape this group of people, so what? What if there were some contractors, farmers, beggars, and so on who came to snatch the food? How many times could they guarantee that they could dodge it?
One after another, people jumped out to support Zhao Hao, expressing their willingness to listen to Ye Xingchen’s orders.
With Ye Xingchen and Zhao Hao echoing each other, Ye Xingchen became the manager of this district.
“Okay, remember what you’re saying now. From now on, you have to listen to me.”
Ye Xingchen said indifferently, then glanced at the 20 or so people who responded to him in the group.
“I don’t want anyone to sit back and enjoy the fruits of others’ labor. You have to know that the community is everyone’s community.”
“I think there are only about 20 people who responded to me. If everyone really wants our community to become better and better, then everyone has to work hard. I’m not willing to work hard and let others enjoy it for nothing.”
“Everyone, supervise each other. If you find anyone hiding and not contributing, report it directly. 1 will give corresponding rewards to those who report more. As everyone can see, my resources are extremely abundant.”
Humans were selfish. Many people were unwilling to joke around with their own lives. They wanted to hide quietly and let others risk their lives.
However, with Ye Xingchen’s reminder, those who responded to Ye Xingchen began to be unhappy. They all tagged the owners who were hiding and pretending to be absent in the group.
“Liang Ning, come out! Don’t hide! I even saw you open the window to catch the snow yesterday!”
“Wang Yang, what are you doing? Don’t pretend you’re not here! You were chatting just now!”
“Sun Li, weren’t you shouting the loudest just now? You said you wanted to support Big Brother Zhao, but why didn’t you say anything? What? Did you freeze to death just now?”
One by one, the people who were pretending to be ostriches were pulled out and they tried to joke.
“I went to the toilet just now. Why are you in such a hurry?”
“I just woke up. I’ll listen to you guys and do whatever you say!”
“I’m discussing it with my family. Why are you in such a hurry? Of course, I’ll support Brother Zhao!”
He had used both kindness and might. The might was over, and it was time for kindness.
“Everyone, please rest assured. If everyone listens to me, 1 can go and find supplies for everyone in the future. However, the premise is that you have to listen to me and do whatever 1 say.”
“Previously, everyone took a lot of supplies from Zhang Yi, right? 1 know that you should be able to eat for a long time by hiding at home, but everyone should have heard of the apocalypse. That’s right, I can tell everyone clearly that the apocalypse is indeed coming, and the days ahead will only become more and more difficult.”
“As long as you sincerely submit to me, I can guarantee that you will have a meal and not starve to death.”
After Zheng Huaqiang and the others came, Ye Xingchen had other plans.
His house was indeed very sturdy, but it was hard to guarantee that there wouldn’t be more powerful figures appearing in the future.
The amateur bomb couldn’t blow up his house this time. But what if there were more powerful bombs in the future?
After all, the house was a man-made thing. It was safe now, but there was no guarantee that there would not be more advanced methods in the future. He could not wait until the other people in the community were all dead and he was the only one left. He would be surrounded by enemies and isolated.
If that was the case, why not make the first move and rule the area first, then take the initiative to recruit people to expand their own forces?
The people in the neighborhood were only temporarily useful. They might not be able to hold on for long. He would recruit more people and let his subordinates live in the neighborhood with his house as the center in the future.
Moreover, after these two rounds of fighting, Ye Xingchen discovered a problem. He did not lack food and drink, but the ammunition could be used up. At first, he thought that it was enough to hide and store up so much. But now, if more people attacked in the future, he would run out of ammunition one day.
He still had to go out and replenish himself.
As for these people…
Ye Xingchen looked at the staff from top to bottom, thinking that he could get them to do manual work and make some weapons for him. It could be considered as making the best use of everything.
After these words, the group exploded into an uproar. Those who had been hiding at the side and did not speak earlier could not help but jump out.
“What? Little Ye, you, you plan to go out and find supplies for us?”
“Really? The snow outside is so deep! How are you going to get out!”
“That’s right! Moreover, the things in the supermarket outside might have already been emptied!”
“How are you going to get out? You can’t drive or walk. It’s difficult to even walk a short distance!”
Ye Xingchen was not worried about the problem of traveling. When he had collected the entire warehouse before, there were a lot of things like snowboards and snowmobiles.
It was just that the snow was too deep and had not been compressed yet, so they could not use the snowmobile.
“I have my ways, so you don’t have to worry. As long as you follow me loyally, I will not mistreat you..”
