Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Li Yu watched them having a good time and turned to Dapao, who was behind him, and said, ”Go to the warehouse now and bring over the grains for them.”

Upon hearing this, Dapao nodded and immediately turned and left.

After a while, Dapao and the others came over pushing a few bags of rice, and after they got close, they tore open these bags for He Bing and the others to see.

Then they placed the grains on the scales and weighed them in front of He Bing and the others.

The weight displayed on the scale was exactly 350 jin, as they had agreed.

Seeing this, He Bing smiled and said, ”Brother Pao, no worries, I trust you guys.”

Dapao shook his head seriously and said, ”If it needs to be done seriously, it must be done seriously.”

Seeing this, He Bing didn’t say much and just waited for Dapao to finish weighing the grains.

After a while, Dapao and the others rewrapped the grains and then pushed them on the cart to He Bing and the others.

He Bing and his compatriots politely accepted it, saying, ”Thank you.”

Li Yu saw that He Bing and the others had taken the grains and then said to them, ”Alright, I have some other things to attend to now, so I’ll be leaving.”

He Bing and the others all said, ”Okay, Director Li, please go ahead with your business.”

Li Yu waved his hand and then turned around and entered the base.

Captain Luo and his team were still waiting for him to bring Ye Shishi over.

Previously, when he was at Luo Tianyan’s place, Li Yu had also thought about how to discuss this matter with Ye Shishi during his free time.

He didn’t know what the consequences would be of telling Ye Shishi about Captain Luo and his team’s situation.

Although at the beginning, Ye Shishi really didn’t show any capabilities, initially Li Yu even had her feed the pigs.

But unexpectedly, this little Ye Shi really persisted without any complaints, and later followed An Ya to study agriculture, which was essentially farming.

Her performance was commendable.

Li Yu’s recognition of little Ye Shi had also increased a lot, and with little Ye Shi being about the same age as his sister, the two became very good friends, and Li Yu also regarded her as part of the base.

If he told little Ye Shi that Captain Luo had come to find her, it was very likely that she would leave.

But in the end, Li Yu still decided to inform Captain Luo about little Ye Shi’s situation.

He had actually been prepared to tell little Ye Shi, getting ready for her potential departure.

Li Yu was innately a very warm person; he was sincere to everyone who entered the base after that.

As a friend, he still had to tell little Ye Shi. Whether she left or not was her own choice.

On the other hand, Li Yu also had some ulterior motives; forming an alliance with Captain Luo and his team, aside from having similar strengths, little Ye Shi was a great lubricant.

As a bridge, bringing the two parties closer together.

After all, little Ye Shi had spent such a long time at the base, she had developed some feelings for it; after all, she had also been involved in building the base, and she had also contributed her efforts and sweat.

With these thoughts, Li Yu entered the Inner City.

Upon entering the Inner City, Li Yu saw his younger sister approaching with a basket in her hand.

Seeing his sister, Li Yu immediately said, ”Yuan, do you know where little Ye Shi is? I have something to discuss with her.”

His sister thought that Li Yu wanted to send little Ye Shi to feed the pigs again and said, ”Big brother, now little Ye Shi is working on planting with An Ya; don’t make her feed the pigs anymore.”

Li Yu patted his sister’s head and smiled, ”Do I seem that bad in your eyes?”

His sister giggled and said, ”When little Ye Shi fed the pigs before, she smelled so much like pig poop, it was really bad. Perhaps she got used to it because she couldn’t smell it herself, and I felt too embarrassed to tell her.”

Li Yu thought about it and decided that he should tell his sister about this matter, considering her good friend little Ye Shi might leave the base, which would probably make her a bit sad.

So he said, ”During the past few days while out, we encountered little Ye Shi’s Grandpa’s people. Her Grandpa sent someone to look for her, and they are currently in Weng City in the Outer City. I plan to tell little Ye Shi, as she might leave the base to find her Grandpa.”

His sister was taken aback, not immediately reacting, reminiscing the days they spent together on wall duty, planting, taking turns in the monitor room, and so much more...

They had already become very good friends, and in this post-apocalyptic world, once parted, they might never meet again in their lifetime.

Her emotions dipped, but she quickly recovered, knowing that it was little Ye Shi’s own decision to make, and as a friend, she could only respect that decision.

But after all, she was Li Yu’s sister, and having been repeatedly influenced by Li Yu’s reasoning, her first thought was whether the occurrence would harm the base or her family.

So she asked, ”Would little Ye Shi’s departure affect us?”

This time it was Li Yu who was taken aback. He thought to himself that he had just been worried about his sister feeling sad, not expecting her to bounce back so quickly and come back with such question.

Damn plastic friendship.

Li Yu said, ”The benefits outweigh the drawbacks. Actually, whether she leaves or not fundamentally doesn’t have much impact on us.”

Li Yuan trusted her brother, knowing that all his decisions were for the base, and that all decisions had been carefully considered, so she did not think further about it.

She then pointed towards the underground planting room and said, ”Little Ye Shi and An Ya went there early this morning and have not come out yet.”

Li Yu hummed in acknowledgment, and then headed straight to the underground planting room.

Li Yuan watched Li Yu’s retreating figure, thinking about the possibility of little Ye Shi leaving, sighed, and stood there in a daze for a while.

Later, when she glanced at the basket in her hand, she came back to her senses about her task at hand and hurried her pace, since her aunt was waiting for her.

...

But speaking of Li Yu arriving at the underground planting room, what caught his eyes was little Ye Shi wearing coarse cloth clothes and squatting down with An Ya, studying the crops.

The two squatted there, with An Ya speaking a few words now and then. Next to her, Ye Shi nodded, looking seriously enthusiastic.

Li Yu walked over and said to them, ”Ye Shi, I have something to tell you.”

Ye Shi was momentarily confused upon hearing Li Yu’s words, unable to guess what he wanted to discuss with her.

Truth be told, as time passed, she grew more accustomed to life at the base.

She had food to eat, clothes to wear, didn’t have to endure the cold, nor constantly worry about being bitten by a zombie.

Surviving the first year of the apocalypse had turned this once somewhat haughty young lady into someone much more sensible.

At the base, she had the company of Bai Jie, An Ya, and even made a good friend in Li Yuan.

Her days were happy and fulfilling. Now, seeing the crops she planted grow a little every day gave her a great sense of achievement.

She realized that she was also useful.

Day by day, her attachment to the Big Camphor Tree Base grew stronger. She had come to regard it as her second home.

This handsome man before her, Li Yu, despite having her feed pigs and initially intimidating her at the beginning,

The actions and words of Li Yu later on had led her to a realization.

One must have value, no matter the task, someone has to do it, and the world doesn’t owe anyone anything.

Ye Shi was truly grateful to Li Yu for taking her in,

During the hardest times of her life.

Watching Li Yu look at her with an awkward gaze, the embarrassment surged in her, and her normally fair cheeks, now tanned by the sun, turned slightly darker.

Her cheeks flushed, but due to the recent stint of farm work and too much sun, her small darkened face didn’t show much redness.

Li Yu couldn’t see it either.

Elsewhere.

An Ya, seeing that Li Yu had something to say to Ye Shi, tactfully stood up to leave.

Li Yu didn’t stop her, knowing that she would find out eventually.

So, just as An Ya was standing up,

He cut straight to the point and said to Ye Shi, ”Ye Shi, do you know someone with the surname Luo? According to him, it’s your Grandpa Ye XX who sent him to find you.”

Clink~

The watering can fell from Ye Shi’s hands to the ground.

Ye Shi stood there in shock, Li Yu’s recent words echoing in her mind.

Li Yu didn’t speak either, understanding what Ye Shi was like based on what An Ya and the others had told him.

Spoiled and haughty, she changed drastically during the apocalypse.

She had probably hoped countless times during tough moments that her relatives would come for her, especially considering how strong she thought her grandpa was.

Until hope, time and time again, turned into despair.

The impact on her was tremendous.

Until she no longer dared to hope.

Because hope brought despair.

She had accepted the reality that she no longer had any relatives in this world and had to rely on herself to survive the apocalypse.

Thus, she changed, deliberately forgetting the hope of having any relatives left.

Once she had adapted to everything.

Li Yu now told her that her grandpa was still alive and had sent someone to find her.

Tears streamed down her face instantly.

Having relatives alive in this world was an immense blessing.

After regaining her composure, Ye Shi nodded and said, ”I know, Uncle Luo often visited our house. Where are they now?”

Li Yu then explained how he met Captain Luo today and summarized how he saved him.

After listening, Ye Shi wiped away her tears and asked, ”Brother Yu, did you say he is now in Weng City in the Outer City?”

Li Yu nodded and said, ”Yes, do you want to see him?”

Ye Shi hastily nodded, then hurried outside.

Suddenly realizing she was wearing her rough farming clothes, she turned back and said shyly, ”Could you wait ten minutes for me? I’ll go change my clothes and come back.”

Li Yu saw what she was wearing and nodded, ”Okay.”

It was also better for her to change clothes, so as not to look as if Ye Shi were being mistreated.

Ye Shi was quick, returning in less than ten minutes after changing her clothes.

Even the marks from her recent crying were gone, and she approached Li Yu, saying, ”Brother Yu, let’s go.”

...

There’s another chapter, but it will be very late.

Everyone should see it in the morning. Don’t wait up.
