Chapter 349 - Organizing The Mess

Even though Wei Xi was worried about his wife, he still did his part. In the cop game, his Boss would be the bad cop while he was the good cop. What Tang Shaoyang did just now was for sure intimidated the people. This was where he should come in to rope these people.

He would show them the benefit of staying in the base. To the right main building, the crowd was lining up, ”Please line up in order, we have enough clean clothes for everyone.”

The right building had become resident for the people after many people decided to join the base. The right building was modified for the lodging of these people, so they utilized the available bathrooms for the people to wash up.

The first thing he did was to let these people clean their bodies. Bad odors came from their bodies and most of them looked like they had not taken a bath for a week.

Wei Xi watched from the sideline while Tang Shaoyangʼs women helped him to maintain the order. Elina, Delia, Arina, Selena, and Liang Suyin voluntarily came to help.

This was for the best actually. But there was a drawback, the five beauties were too attractive. He had to warn these people that these five were Tang Shaoyangʼs women. After he told the people that, sure enough, these people did not dare to look at the five women scrupulously.

A few ex-soldiers were dispatched to maintain the order. Quickly, fifty people came back from the bathroom with clean clothes. It was a casual black shirt and brown long pants. Plain, but much better than their previous clothes.

”Follow us, we will bring you to the cafeteria to get your food,” Liang Suyin led the first batch of fifty people to the main building.

The main building was where the cafeteria was. It was inconvenient for the residents, but the distance was very short so Tang Shaoyang did not bother to make another cafeteria for the moment since the main building was where the main activity was.

Fifty people were too many for the elevator so Liang Suyin led them to the stairs. The cafeteria was on the second floor anyway, ”The cafeteria is on the second floor…” Liang Suyin introduced, not only to the fifty people who just entered the main building for the first time but to the other four girls too.

The whole second floor had become a cafeteria. Cao Jingyi did this because they received a lot of survivors in the last two months. The whole second floor was emptied for these people to eat.

”Welcome to the cafeteria~” as they stepped into the second floor, they were greeted by a cheerful voice. Five kids greeted them while bowing their heads.

Elina was surprised, but she soon furrowed her brows, ”Shaoyang did not force them to that, it was the kidʼs initiative. They said they want to contribute to the base too, so they greeted our people who came to the cafeteria while their parents worked in the kitchen!”

Li Yue, Li Naʼs little sister was among the five. She recognized Liang Suyin, but not the other four girls. She approached Liang Suyin, ”Sister Suyin, where is my sister?”

Liang Suyin stroked her hair gently and smiled, ”Your sister is still on duty, but she will come back before the evening,” Li Yue nodded understandingly.

”Please follow us to get your food,” the five kids then led the group to the counter with food. Five staff were there, ready to serve the meal for them. The fifty peopleʼs eyes brightened at the sight of steaming food.

However, Liang Suyin was not done with the instruction, ”One person, one serve, no EXTRA serve!” It was not that she was stingy with the food or worried about food shortage. She did this because out of consideration of the cooks, there were only dozens of cooks while they had to cook for thousands of people. If these people went greedy and wanted more, it would be an extra burden for the cooks, the cools might not be able to handle it. On top of that, the kitchen was not prepared to prepare thousands of servings too.

Elina quickly realized the issue, so while the staff was serving the meal for the first batch, she volunteered to join the kitchen team instead, ”I should help them instead,” she pointed to the cooks in the kitchen who were getting overwhelmed by the amount of food they had to cook.

Liang Suyin was aware that Elina was a good cook, it was a good idea. She entered the kitchen and greeted the head kitchen. The head kitchen was a woman in her mid-forties, ”Do you need more people to help?”

The lady wiped the sweat on her forehead, ”Yes, Mam. We appreciate every help,” she nodded her head at Liang Suyin.

Elina was following Liang Suyin from behind closely while scanning the foreign kitchen. There were a lot of foreign tools she did not recognize. The same for the other three, they were scanning the kitchen curiously as these tools did not exist in their previous world.

Elina came closer to Liang Suyin, ”Hide our identities, I donʼt want my status as his woman to become a hindrance to the work,” after the beforehand incident, she was aware of what kind of figure her man was to his people.

If the kitchen staff knew her identity was his woman, they would be stiff around her for sure. She wanted to become a help for her man, not a hindrance. Especially at this moment. Liang Suyin nodded her head understandingly.

”Also, call the soldiersʼ wives, they can be a big help, and also please station a few guards. Just in case,” Elinova was quick with her action. These people were starved so they would easily get irritated and angry. She was afraid that they would cause trouble here.

”Leave that to me,” Liang Suyin nodded and left the cafeteria.

Elinova, Delia, Arina, and Selena faced the head kitchen, ”What can we do to help you, Mam?” Elin was not aware that ”Mam” was used to call someone superior to her. But since the head kitchen used that to Liang Suyin, she thought it was how people in this world greeted the people that they did not know their names were.

”Just call me Cook Yun,” Cook Yun smiled as she scanned the four ladies. Without a doubt, these four ladies were attractive, ʼStationing them to serve the meal may cause a ruckus, but I donʼt know what they can cook too.ʼ

It was as if Elin was aware of Cook Yunʼs concern, she volunteered herself, ”I am not familiar with the menu, you can put us in the prep team instead,” she had looked at the food, and she did not recognize any of them. She came to help, not to make a mess so she volunteered to prepare the ingredient instead.

”Okay then,” Cook Yun readily agreed and led the four to the prep team. This was the best position for someone she did not know what they were capable of.

Ten minutes later, Liang Suyin came back with more reinforcement and seven Tarriors to maintain the order within the cafeteria. At this time, Wei Xi brought the second batch of fifty survivors to the cafeteria.

”If you have finished your meal, please now follow me. You have to be registered to receive your lodging!” Wei Xi called the first fifty survivors. They finished the food earlier because they were starved. From their eyes, it could be seen that they wanted more, but they decided to follow Wei Xi after noticing the seven guards.

Wei Xi led the fifty well-fed and clean survivors to the receptionist counter on the first floor, the lobby. He stood in front of the fifty people and explained, ”Please line up!” He pointed to them to line up, ”In order to get the lodging, you have to fill the form we prepared. Your name, your education, and your profession before, and a little bit more details.”

”We will assign you a work based on the data you give us in exchange for the lodging, food, and clothes we gave you. I hope you fill the form with honesty or I canʼt help you with the consequence,” Wei Xi told them gently with a smile plastered on his face.

While the base was crowded with the survivors, organizing the mess. In the west gate, Cao Yuntai, Fan Rui, Gu Yingjie, and the other seven soldiers were guarding the gate.

”Men, our Boss is surely hell scary, he did not hesitate to kill those people,” a soldier expressed his thoughts on what just happened.

”I wonder if we make the right decision by following him? What if we make a small mistake? Will we get executed like them?” Another soldier voiced his concern.

”You can leave if you are afraid,” Gu Yingjie said to the two soldiers, ”You have not officially joined the empire, but you are already thinking of making mistakes.”

Gu Yingjie was not part of the military before, he was a slave that was freed as a slave during the Survival Game. He was harsh with his words because he thought the two were talking badly about the Boss behind.

Cao Yuntai immediately interfered before things went south, ”Calm down, Yingjie. Their concerns are not unfounded because they donʼt know him well enough.”

The older man got closer to the other seven soldiers and told them to sit, ”Do you want to hear my story in the fifth portal with the Boss? We have quite amazing experiences there.”

Cao Yuntai would rather tell them what the Boss looked like. Tang Shaoyang might be cruel and merciless with his method, but he knew very well that the Boss treated his people well. The proof was that they had been protected by him many times in the portal. These soldiers had to know this side of the Boss to improve his image. The older man was aware that going the hard way would not work.
