In the Apocalypse, Hoarding Supplies with the System's Hundredfold Critical Hits

"Besides participating in military training, these key members also need to undergo training in various other aspects. In short, these key members recruited internally by bases with military backgrounds are truly capable individuals, while those recruited externally now are laborers."

"Laborers?" Li Ming's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Yes, that's right. This time, the Allied Association and several other bases are recruiting true laborers. Of course, the management is still very strict. Inside, anyone who disobeys management or causes trouble will be expelled from the base after accumulating two mistakes, and those who commit crimes will be executed directly!"

Li Ming felt that this was normal. Using harsh punishments in chaotic times might be a bit strict, but special circumstances should be treated specially. These bases define their mission as helping survivors live on and propagating human civilization, so strictness is necessary.

"Old Zheng, what's your estimate of how many people the Allied Association and other bases with imperial military backgrounds can accommodate?"

Old Zheng smiled, "Chief, according to our current estimates, their large bases can accommodate up to 500,000 people."

Li Ming nodded, "No wonder they manage it this way. With so many people in one base, there would definitely be major problems if they weren't managed with an iron fist. By the way, what about the other bases?"

"Chief, those bases like the Revitalization Society, which are composed of the remaining forces of the imperial government, well, their intentions are good, but it's a mixed bag in there. Their standards for recruiting survivors are basically 20 pounds of grain per person, without the complicated conditions of the Allied Association and other bases."

"The personnel recruited in these bases include not only the descendants of the founders of these bases, but also some wealthy merchants and rich people from the apocalypse. According to the information obtained by our General Staff Intelligence Department, there are many problems with these bases."

This sentence aroused Li Ming's interest, "Tell me about the situation!"

Old Zheng replied, "Yes, these bases basically have some of the colors of the remaining forces of the original imperial government, so their style of doing things has a strong official flavor. In here, it can only be said that the rules only bind ordinary people, and are basically useless to the management of the bases."

"Moreover, internal strife is more serious in these bases, and infighting for power and profit is common. In addition, they are very dissatisfied with our Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce's style of doing things!"

"Hehe!" Li Ming laughed after hearing this last sentence, "Continue, how are they dissatisfied!"

"The main thing is that they think we should take out the large amount of supplies we have and distribute them to the survivors, instead of making disaster money in the apocalypse in the form of a chamber of commerce. Also, they think we should hand over a large amount of supplies to them for management, so that it can play the greatest role..."

"Hehe, they really dare to think! My supplies weren't blown in by a strong wind, they were painstakingly hoarded before the disaster, why should they want me to hand them over with just one sentence? They're really dreaming, I didn't expect there to be such stupid things in the apocalypse!" Li Ming said with disdain.

For him, this was just a group of old imperial remnants, now is not the time to clean them up, otherwise, with his temper, he would have already started. Li Ming is very clear that there will be more cruel natural disasters in the future, and even plate collisions may occur. In the face of such natural disasters, these old remnants can't resist at all, why bother with a group of people who are bound to die?

"By the way, Old Zheng, you said earlier that the military bases are recruiting laborers in this batch of survivors? What's going on?"

"Chief, the thing is like this, according to a message passed out by one of our intelligence personnel, the personnel recruited by the Allied Association and other bases, after entering the military bases, in addition to strict military management, will also be arranged to participate in the subsequent project construction of the bases."

"Or they will also be arranged to participate in the production and storage of various foods and other supplies, basically some heavy physical labor."

Li Ming understood after hearing this, they were really recruiting laborers. But this has little to do with Li Ming.

But Li Ming quickly saw that Old Zheng seemed to have something to say, "Old Zheng, just say what you want to say!"

"Chief, our intelligence department is currently hearing many survivors outside are discussing when the Zhongxing Chamber of Commerce's base will recruit ordinary survivors?"

"Who said we don't accept people? Haven't we taken in more than 10 million technical talents from all walks of life? How can you say we don't accept people? Although those people have all kinds of skills, aren't they also ordinary people?"

"We have already taken in more than 10 million people, what else do you want us to do?" Li Ming chuckled.

"Chief, you should understand who they are talking about when they say ordinary people, right?" Old Zheng said meaningfully.

"Ordinary survivors may be taken in, but not now, at least the time is not right yet!" Li Ming told the truth.

As soon as Minister Zheng heard this, he knew that the chief had his own plans, so he didn't say any more.

......

Time flew by and came to February 28, 2028 in the solar calendar. At this time, the flood finally receded.

And with the flood receding, the ground was full of stinky mud. In order to solve the problem of mud in the urban area, Li Ming dispatched a large number of engineering machinery and equipment, such as excavators and tractors.

At the same time, Li Ming also mobilized the vast number of survivors to clean up the mud. Along with these actions, Li Ming sent a large number of troops to start recycling various water-soaked cars exposed after cleaning up the mud.

Of course, the recycling of these water-soaked cars was carried out at night. A large number of small teams across the country desperately recycled these water-soaked cars with different-dimensional pockets. After all, at least these things can be reduced to various metal materials, which are really good things.

Of course, Li Ming did not give up on the cleaned mud. Li Ming started his powerful industrialization capabilities and directly processed and treated the mud in various ways, and finally turned the mud into very fertile planting soil.

These planting soils were collected by Li Ming into the system space.

Along with the mud cleaning, the chemical defense troops were dispatched to carry out disinfection and sterilization, trying to solve the impact of the flood from the root.

Of course, the flood still has a great impact on human beings. The flood has been soaking for two months, and the foundations of many old buildings have been soaked and some problems have occurred. In addition to the extreme cold, now there is extreme heat. Under the action of these comprehensive forces, with the alternation of thermal expansion and contraction, many old buildings are already very unsafe.
