Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

”Hmm, I’ll go check on him later.”

He knew that He Chao had a little daughter named Xiao Ya, who was now just 14 years old.

Sigh...

Li Yu let out a sigh. After all, He Chao had been with him for a long time, and He Chao was extremely capable, managing the Outer City well. Most importantly, as a person in the Inner City, He Chao had always been running between the Satellite City and Outer City for the Big Camphor Tree Base, showing his loyalty.

”Xiao Yu, I just heard the news that you want to suspend all cooperation with the newcomers and force them to register, killing those who don’t register...”

Li Yu interrupted Second Uncle before he could finish speaking:

”In the current situation, it has to be done this way, otherwise even the old cooperative personnel will have problems.”

Second Uncle was taken aback and quickly said:

”You’ve misunderstood me; I have no objections to your decision. What I want to discuss is the future—if these newcomers register, how do you plan to handle them?”

Li Yu fell silent.

To be honest, once he established the four-tier rank system, he understood that the Big Camphor Tree Base would inevitably expand, and the population would increase.

From originally a few dozen people, it had grown to thousands now.

Managing them was becoming increasingly difficult.

Fortunately, they adopted a strict promotion system, so the core Inner and Outer City population was only a few hundred.

If a large number of people were not well managed, they could become a burden and a problem.

This recent incident was a lesson.

Luckily, it didn’t result in severe consequences.

On his way back to the Big Camphor Tree Base, he had already figured things out.

It was now September 10th, and he knew that in a few days, by the end of this month, a prolonged heavy rain would arrive, followed by a sudden drop in temperature.

By then, without shelter, surviving outside would be difficult.

He didn’t plan to let the newcomers enter the base!

Although most of them were innocent, Li Yu didn’t care about that. He only knew that He Chao was injured and his life was uncertain.

During all this time, the old cooperative personnel hadn’t had a single incident.

Yet the newcomers, having barely arrived, caused such an uproar.

Even though Li Yu’s trip to Southeast Asia was primarily for personal gain, it indirectly avenged those who fled from the Southwest.

Even if those people might not know about it.

Yet, Li Yu was displeased.

Despite exhausting himself to eliminate their enemies over there, they come here causing trouble at his home.

Li Yu would not tolerate this!

After a minute of silence, Li Yu finally spoke up:

”I haven’t decided yet; everything will wait until a thorough investigation is complete. Anyway, none of the protest participants can expect to escape, while the others will be dealt with later.”

Seeing Li Yu’s anger, Second Uncle sighed.

”Alright, then let’s proceed with the interrogation. As for those people you sent over by helicopter, those like Zhang Qiwu and his students, Bai Jie and the others reported that Zhang Qiwu’s group is truly skilled!”

”?”

Li Yu suddenly recalled those high achievers sent back by helicopter some time ago.

With so much killing lately, it had become second nature.

”Did any of them participate in the recent protest?” Li Yu asked, lowering his gaze.

Second Uncle responded: ”No, they likely have no idea about this issue. I’ve temporarily assigned them the status of Extra Staff, living around the Big Camphor Tree Base, mingling with some old cooperative personnel.

Given their capabilities, we should actively recruit them, awaiting your return to decide whether to allow them into the Outer City. Unfortunately, things took such a turn.”

Li Yu nodded slightly.

The newcomers’ betrayal had once again made Li Yu vigilant.

While the entry threshold had been relaxed somewhat, he tightened it again.

When Old Dong and others first came, they stayed outside the base for a while before entering the Outer City.

Now, given this incident, Li Yu’s impression of those fleeing here had worsened.

”Since they have joined Bai Jie and An Ya’s work and have some knowledge about the base, they can’t remain outside the base. We’ll arrange for them to live in the Weng City of the Second Outer City. This Weng City is rarely used; we’ll construct some wooden houses for them to stay temporarily. They are not allowed to leave!”

As if remembering something, Li Yu continued:

”They haven’t been privy to the core matters of the base, have they?”

Upon hearing this, Second Uncle quickly replied:

”Of course not, I’m not foolish. I’ve only had them assist in researching crop cultivation and producing some daily chemical products, and the like.

They haven’t had access to anything else, their understanding of our base’s internal matters is very limited.

I specifically instructed Bai Jie not to let them into the Research Room; they haven’t been to the Third Outer City either.”

Listening to Second Uncle, Li Yu let out a sigh of relief.

”That’s good, tomorrow, tomorrow we’ll have them moved into the Weng City of the Second Outer City.”

”Alright.” Second Uncle nodded.

In a big forest, you’ll find all sorts of birds; Li Yu was clear about that. There might only be a few bad birds, but Li Yu didn’t want to investigate each one to determine which were good birds; he hadn’t the time or energy for that.

So he’d rather seal off the forest, use the useful birds for now, and decide later whether to seal the rest or use them.

”I’ll go check on He Chao and the others.” Li Yu said to Second Uncle.

Second Uncle nodded, then looked at the dozen or so naked people getting off the vehicle behind them and asked, ”Are those the ones caught in the protest?”

”Yes, they’ll be sent to the interrogation room for questioning soon.” Li Yu replied.

Second Uncle watched as Dapao, seemingly out of nowhere, took out a whip, occasionally lashed it into the sky, producing a loud and beautiful cracking sound.

Was it an illusion? Somehow, Dapao seemed unusually happy.

The Dapao in his impression wasn’t like this, Second Uncle thought, shaking his head and heading towards the Weng City in the Third Outer City.

The supplies were abundant; he needed to go see.
