Volume 3 Chapter 78 The Rules are set by me
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
The two old men have been tough for a lifetime, but it had all been for the country and the people. Now finally they can be tough for their daughter.
Whether they were called selfish or not, they have finalized this decision.
“No one has to persuade us two. The matter is a foregone conclusion. We are already old and don’t want to quarrel with you. We will see you on the battlefield.” The Qin family took the Tan family and Zhu Mochen and left directly.
Other people tried to stop him, especially the Liu Family Patriarch. Don’t just look at him as another man, being the peacemaker for so many years especially as the peacemaker for the Qin family and the Tan family, how could it be possible that he didn’t have the ability?
He can see the situation most clearly. At present, the entirety of Jing Du is supported by the Qin family and the Tan family in order to have its current status. Once these two are gone, it can be said that Jing Du has broken in half.
But the head of the Liu family also knew very well that he couldn’t stop it.
These two old people have the same tempers as a bull and the decision has been made. Even if they hit the wall and smashed their heads, they will never change.
In the afternoon, the forces of the Qin family, the Tan family, and Zhu Mochen slowly withdrew from Jing Du and began to shift in the direction of Jiangcheng.
It seemed really shocking. The superhumans plus their family members, the two families should have tens of thousands of people. Under the protection of Zhu Mochen’s mercenary group, they slowly trudged towards Jiangcheng.
When Shao Qing received the news, the three forces were already very close to Jiangcheng. Shao Qing immediately threw down all the work in her hand and went straight to receive them.
She looked at the team that stretched for hundreds of miles, and really didn’t know what to say, especially to Grandpa Qin. They had no blood relationship, but as soon as something happened, Grandpa Qin immediately said nothing and gave up his foundation. He brought his huge family to come and support her.
How can she have such an honor to be the daughter of Elder Qin in this life?
Shao Qing felt fortunate that she was a zombie and had no tears, so she won’t cry out in public and won’t collapse. She looked at how old Grandpa Qin looked and she knew how much he was suffering from making this decision.
With a century-old foundation, how much pressure did he endure for such a big family?
There was also Old man Tan. He actually didn’t owe Shao Qing anything, but made such a decision at this moment.
Finally, Zhu Mochen, her friend. This friend really wasn’t made for nothing. At this moment, Shao Qing truly regarded Zhu Mochen as her own person.
Shao Qing jumped out of the car and fell to her knees and gave the two old men 3 kowtows. It’s said that men have gold underneath their knees*, but isn’t it the same for women?
* men should be prideful and shouldn’t beg on their knees etc
It was the first time in her life that she had ever knelt for anyone.
“Father, godfather, this daughter is not filial to make you worried.”
Hearing Shao Qing’s words, Old man Tan’s eyes were the first to turn red. Like a child, he sat on the ground in front of tens of thousands of people howling and crying: “Ah Lan, look, look, see, our daughter has acknowledged me. She acknowledged me…I’m sorry, sorry my daughter…Ah Lan… ”
Old man Qin’s eyes were red, he dragged him up abruptly: “How old are you to start crying? Isn’t this embarrassing to our daughter? Get lost!”
As the two old men spoke, they all started to drip tears down their faces. Yan Qiyue who came with her quickly said, “Don’t stand outside, we will talk about it when we go home.”
Shao Qing took the two old people and got into the car first.
The two old people have already told their family and their subordinates in advance that they were about to go to the city of zombies, Jiangcheng. This demonstrated the ability of these two old people. Except for a very small number of people, everyone else was willing to follow them.
Even if they were going to the city of zombies.
So when they saw the zombies behind Shao Qing, they were very calm, at least they looked calm. When they were walking back, there was an episode.
A woman who looked at most forty years old and had a pretty face suddenly hugged a zombie and wouldn’t let go. She held on tightly and cried.
The zombie held by her looked young and had its waist hunched and its sharp nails constantly stretched and contracted. It looked very irritable and roared, but it did not hurt the woman.
When Shao Qing heard that there was a disturbance in the back, she looked down and found the woman holding a zombie and crying. She asked, “What’s the matter?”
The woman’s crying voice was intermittent: “This is my son! This is my son! It’s my son…my son…”
The zombie in her arms was only rank five. Although there was a certain degree of wisdom, this wisdom was no better than a child of three or five years old at most. The only reason he was restraining himself from hurting the woman was because of Shao Qing’s order.
The woman continued to tell her story intermittently. She and her husband were very affectionate. When she was 19 years old, she married her husband. At that time, her husband was still a poor boy and had become rich slowly.
Later, she gave birth to her son, Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan was fifteen years old when the end of the world came. Their family was relatively lucky because none of the three became zombies.
But at the same time, they were also unfortunate because there was no superhuman in their family and they were trapped in their own house. There was not much food and vegetables in the house. Luckily, their son had a hobby of snacking, so he had a lot of snacks in the house. Thus, they lasted a long time.
But the food would be finished sooner or later. Soon there would be no food in their family. Only a few pieces of chocolate were left. Both of them were reluctant to eat and wanted to leave it to their son. But even so, how many days can they last?
In the end, the man chose to go out looking for food. The first time, he found some food and returned safely. A few days later, he went out for the second and third time.
Finally one day, after he went out, he never came back.
The woman cried secretly, but she still had to live because they still had a son.
At that time, the son told her that since father was gone and he was the only man in the family, he would go out to find food, but how could a woman put her son in danger.
So the woman went out. She found a lot of food, and when she came back full of joy, the door was broken and her son was gone.
The woman was desperate, crying, and even thinking about death, but finally she persisted. She looked for her son everywhere, from the southernmost point to the northernmost point. Then she went from the northernmost to the southernmost, and finally followed the flow of people to Jiing Du.
She believed that sooner or later, she would find her son, and this day has really come.
When the woman started to cry, she couldn’t stop. She wanted to vent all the depression in her heart, as well as the despair that she has always had. God knows she can’t sleep every night. Every night, tossing and turning, her mind was filled with her young child’s face.
This world really does have miracles.
What if her son becomes a zombie, she was not afraid, it was her son. He was a piece of meat that came from her belly, she saw it grow up with her own eyes.
Shao Qing’s emotions today were particularly perceptual. She said to the woman: “The evolution of zombies is actually human. In other words, sooner or later, your son will recover his memory. As long as you have the patience to wait, and nurture his growth, you can get along with your son. Even if he can’t remember, he will get close to you a lot. After returning to Jiangcheng, I can arrange for you to live with your son, but your son is surrounded by zombies. Are you afraid?”
The woman firmly said: “I’m not afraid!” She can be afraid of everything, but she was most afraid of losing her son.
As long as her son was by her side, she had unlimited courage to deal with everything.
Shao Qing nodded. She did not say anything, she was just a little envious. Her mother was already in heaven, even if she was envious, it was useless.
It was very troublesome for so many people to come at once. Shao Qing had to temporarily isolate two areas in Jiangcheng. One area was the area where zombies were active, and the other was the area where humans were.
This was only a temporary resettlement. After the resettlement was completed, she would think of other ways. Jiangcheng will become the most special city, in which humans and zombies will live together in harmony.
This is the future of Jiangcheng.
It was troublesome for a large number of people to move in, but the trouble also represented the rise of Jiangcheng’s strength. The Qin family, the Tan family, and together with Zhu Mochen were the backbone of Jing Du at that time.
Shao Qing didn’t mind if she weakened the other party and strengthened herself.
After the resettlement was completed, Shao Qing expanded the place where they lived, and expanded the two-story small western-style building into a large courtyard, where everyone in her family would live.
The two old men lived opposite from one another, and would usually quarrel.
Jiangcheng entered a new round of busyness, while the other side was still arguing.
Because of the withdrawal of the two superpowers: the Qin family and the Tan family, the alliance convened by the Qian family was unable to follow up, and the gathering to attack Jiangcheng was delayed for a few days.
The few days that were vacated had given Jiangcheng time to breathe. The two elders handed over all the military power to Shao Qing, and Shao Qing began to organize the team. Excluding the old, weak, women and children, it left nearly 6,000 people in combat.
Six thousand people with the combat effectiveness of a plate of scattered sand would not be as effective as a small mercenary group.
Therefore, before the battle began, she simply trained these teams to achieve a certain combat effectiveness. Otherwise they will only become cannon fodder on the battlefield.
What was gratifying is that because of that woman’s matter before, these people’s ability to accept zombies was much higher. Who didn’t have a relative become a zombie?
Maybe among the many zombies in Jiangcheng, there were some of their relatives. People are actually emotional animals, especially under the influence of such a big environment.
Many people even actively started searching in Jiangcheng to see if any of their separated relatives became zombies.
However, this behavior was quickly stopped because Shao Qing was afraid that they would be injured. Although the zombies were under their control, if someone did something irrational, the zombies would not resist completely.
Rabbits will bite people when they are anxious, let alone zombies that are going crazy.
Shao Qing borrowed the broadcast system and had to publicize it several times a day, hoping that everyone would not easily step out of place. If they enter the area where zombies are active, once they get injured, she will not be held responsible.
In fact, most of the zombies did not have time to be teased. Most of the zombies were building the city walls, and most of them were cleaning the houses.
There were many, many houses in Jiangcheng, all empty, but they were covered with dust and mess. They cannot be moved for a while.
Everyone who entered Jiangcheng was assigned to their own house, but it needed to be cleaned up by themselves. The area for humans was divided into three areas. The area where the capable fighters lived was like a military camp. The place where they trained was also where they slept and ate.
Of course, these superhumans also have their own homes, and they can also live in their own homes when there is no training or mission.
If they were alone, with no relatives, no friends, or family members, there was another area. The houses in this area were relatively small and suitable for single-person living without wasting space.
Those with relatives and family members are assigned to another area. The houses in this area were generally larger and suitable for one family.
In addition to these three areas, there was also a special area, which is similar to the combination of a nursing home and an orphanage. The Qin family and Tan family have brought many widows as well as children without family members.
When they were in Jing Du, the Tan family and the Qin family would give them certain rations every week and they had a place to stay temporarily.
After arriving in Jiangcheng, Shao Qing directly established a nursing home with great magnanimity. In this nursing home, it was filled with all the elderly without families and children.
Ordinary people who have no fighting capacity can come to apply for positions to take care of these people and get their own wages.
Generally, those who apply for employment in nursing homes are mothers who have lost their children, or young women. They are ordinary people who have no fighting capacity and their physical strength is not particularly good. They were most suitable for taking care of people.
The remaining ordinary men who were left, are assigned to work in the planting base and breeding farm.
When there are more people, there must be rules. Jiangcheng’s rule was to exchange labor for food and crystal nuclei. Jiangcheng lacks everything except for food. She can afford 10,000 people.
She can raise anyone, but not idlers. Raising idlers will raise problems.
When people are idle, they are prone to causing troubles. They will develop preferences to ease and comfort and hate work, so Shao Qing arranged jobs for everyone. They needed to rely on work to earn wages to support themselves.
Only those who are old, weak, sick and disabled, who can’t even feed themselves, are eligible to enter a nursing home.
All superhumans were also divided into two groups. The ones with high combat effectiveness are responsible for hunting, fighting, patrolling, and so on.
Those with low combat effectiveness, or those with no combat effectiveness, are responsible for logistics.
For example, some people with water abilities are responsible for making drinking water, or watering the land, etc. The people with wind abilities can generate electricity, and those with earth abilities can help plant or participate in construction.
In less than a few days of work, Jiangcheng was managed into an orderly fashion by Shao Qing. She seemed to be a natural leader, very suitable for this kind of work.
With the backbone of the Qin family and the Tan family, Jiangcheng’s higher ups began to take shape.
Shao Qing looked at the scene in front of her, she was confident that Jiangcheng would become a paradise in the last days.
As long as you are not blind, you can see that Jiangcheng today is better than Jing Du, and ordinary people and superhumans can live a good life here.
A life that allows people to see hope is the best. Whether it is an ordinary person or a superhuman, they were all very motivated because they were building their future home and this home was very beautiful.
In Jiangcheng, all you can feel is the vitality, the vigorous vitality, the indescribable vitality. Everyone walking on the street has faded from the fear of the initial migration and is now filled with joy from the heart.
In fact, most people’s wishes were very simple. They just want to live a good life, without lack of food and clothing. On this basis, if they can live with dignity, it will be even better.
In Jiangcheng, they can get what they want and live with dignity.
It’s just that there are some superhumans who are used to being domineering and blessed in Jing Du, so they haven’t adapted to it. They were used to being superior. They think that they are not on the same level as others.
But after arriving in Jiangcheng, Shao Qing didn’t give them any special treatment. Although they were eating very well, even better than in Jing Du, they were the same as ordinary people.
Although the place where they live is quite big and spacious, they don’t have the sense of superiority they used to.
Some people began to complain and began to feel dissatisfied. They felt that they were powerful superhumans, shouldn’t they be treated better than others? How could ordinary people deserve the same treatment as them?
At first, it was just complaints, but then small-scale frictions, contradictions and even conflicts began to occur.
The most fierce incident was when one superhuman forced themselves on a young lady, then threw a crystal nucleus to the lady and called it prostitution.
Because in Jing Du, this kind of thing is normal. As long as you are strong, no one will hold you accountable.
These people thought that they were not at fault for bullying the weak because they were powerful superhumans. They are more useful than ordinary people and they have made more contributions to the entire base.
Just like this superhuman, he felt that after he threw a crystal nucleus to the young lady, it was already a reward. Compared to before, he wouldn’t have given her anything.
Shao Qing went to find the two old people. After all, she had to tell her two old fathers about what she was going to do. This was the respectful thing to do.
The two old men said, do what you want, and we support you.
In the past, it was because of the general environment that they could not do anything. Now this site was where their daughter was in charge. Things like this shouldn’t happen again.
Let’s not talk about how beast like those actions are, but doing this on their daughter’s land is akin to slapping their daughter in the face.
In the afternoon of the same day, Shao Qing called everyone, ordinary people, superhumans, and a representative among the zombies, Yin Ye.
The gathering place was the central square of Jiangcheng. There were more than 10,000 people. After everyone arrived, Shao Qing first asked: “This morning, someone abused a young lady. Who is it? Stand up.”
The superhuman stood up carelessly, and then said: “Why are you calling it abuse? Didn’t I give her a crystal? How can a one-off deal be called abuse?”
Shao Qing chuckled: “If the girl agrees, it is voluntary and it would not be called abuse, but you forcibly took her body. Afterwards, you threw a crystal to insult her, is this not called abuse? Do you think this is not abuse?”
The superhuman was very arrogant: “I am a superhuman, rank five wind element, if there is danger, I will protect them. So what’s wrong with me sleeping with one or two women? Even if I kill one or two people, what’s the matter with that?”
He raised his hand: “We are superhumans, we are strong. We ask for the treatment we deserve. If Jiangcheng can’t give us this honor, what are we doing here?”
“Who has the same idea as him?” Shao Qing said calmly.
Several people stepped forward one after another. Most of the superhumans watched indifferently. They didn’t think they were being treated badly, they even liked the lifestyle in Jiangcheng very much. But all who stood up were the ones who enjoyed bullying in Jing Du.
“There are only these few?” Shao Qing glanced over, her eyes gentle: “Perhaps I should teach you the rules of Jiangcheng. This is my place, not Jing Du. In my place, you should abide by my rules. If you don’t follow my rules…”
As she spoke, Shao Qing smiled, and instantly became cold: “Then I will teach you well.”
