Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Five Awakeners
Chapter 120 Five Awakened Ones
The first thing Xie Tian did when he had a meeting was to formulate the employment needs of each position. If the cooking was concentrated, there must be enough personnel to engage in cooking work. As for how many people were needed to be responsible for cooking, Xie Tian couldn't handle it well.
Liu Mu gave an opinion and said: "The ratio of cooks to soldiers in the army is 1:80. If we count this way, we have two thousand people, and we need about 25 cooks."
Xie Tian nodded and said, "25 are acceptable, so 25 are tentatively set." Then, Xie Tian asked Li Xiaohe, "How many people were we in charge of cooking before?"
Li Xiaohe looked through her record book and said, "There are 9 people."
Xie Tian nodded and said, "Then you go to those survivors to recruit 16 more."
Lao Zheng, who has been a chef, said, "Thank you, how do you plan to arrange three meals a day? At present, only rice is inexhaustible, and other supplies are relatively scarce."
Xie Tian hesitated for a moment and said, "Lao Zheng, you are professional. What do you think?"
Lao Zheng said, "Breakfast can be served with rice porridge and cakes. For lunch, we have a lot of dry goods. We can make big pot dishes and serve them in portions. Then, lunch can ensure that each person can eat about 30 grams of meat. Otherwise, eating rice will not take long to lose the energy to work. As for dinner, you can do a little bit of it, a little bit of big pot dishes, a little rice porridge or noodle soup. "
Xie Tian nodded and said, "The problem of meat should be given. If calculated based on 30 grams per person, the consumption per day is about 60 kilograms. We can still bear this consumption rate. In this case, we only need to find some meat supplies in the city every once in a while."
Song Hui asked, "Xiao Xie, how are you going to expand your army? If these people are directly included in the army and equipped with weapons, will it be difficult to manage?"
Xie Tianxiao said, "I have considered this. I will recruit them in the form of a reserve service first, let them participate in training, and occasionally practice shooting. However, the firearms should be managed uniformly when practicing shooting, and they should be put into the warehouse immediately after use. They can also be allowed to participate in daily guards. However, if we are led by our veterans, there should be no big problems. Even if there is a problem, we can control the situation well."
"Be careful." Liu Mu nodded in agreement and said, "If you mix them into the veteran team and the veterans will manage and supervise them, they will divide their strength."
"There are other jobs." Xie Tian said: "At present, we have enough welding equipment, and there are still a lot of equipment left in the power plant. At present, our defense is still not perfect. Since more than a thousand laborers are added, we should simply completely reinforce the outermost wall and reinforce it with cement and steel. If more than a thousand people work together, I believe it will be done soon."
"Will you still go to transport food tomorrow?" Lao Cheng asked.
"Transport." Xie Tian nodded and said, "The loose grain in the grain storage tank in the Xinyu Grain Storage Tank is not easy to make, but all other bags of grain should be transported back as soon as possible, so as not to be discovered by others and robbed our deal."
That night, Xie Tian brought a few male laborers to clean up the canteen. The electrical equipment in the kitchen was still complete, and new power generation equipment was added. The power usage problem could be easily solved. Lao Zheng was once a chef, so Xie Tian transferred him out of the monitoring room and was responsible for the cooking work in the entire safety area. Lao Zheng also agreed very readily and immediately debugged and cleaned the equipment.
Everyone else has already started to rest, but the cafeteria is busy. When she thinks that from today on, the safe area can easily bear the food for two thousand people, Xie Tian unconsciously feels proud. It seems that no matter when, unity between people is the most powerful force. The more dangerous the conditions are, the more we need to concentrate all the forces that can be concentrated. Nowadays, the family business is almost all the way. From Yangcheng to Nanling and then here, the team is gradually developing and becoming stronger.
Lao Zheng confirmed that the meal would be officially served tomorrow morning, so Xie Tian left the canteen with confidence. Outside the canteen, it was Du Yuewei's waiting, which was beyond Xie Tian's expectations. When Xie Tian saw Xie Tian come out, Du Yuewei stepped forward with a little hesitation and stammered for a while. Xie Tian thought she wanted to ask her questions about how to evolve, but he didn't expect that when Du Yuewei opened her mouth, she said thank you.
Xie Tian was a little confused by her thank you and asked in confusion: "Why did you suddenly come to thank me?"
Du Yuewei pursed her lips and said, "Thank you for everything you have done here. You respect everyone and manage it in an orderly manner. Everyone has a stable life. Apart from the zombies outside, this place is no longer much different from the normal society before."
Xie Tian smiled slightly and said, "It's not just for the survivors, but also for myself. The situation outside is getting more and more serious, and the security zone managed by the temporary Military Commission is too strict. I can only find a way to open a relatively more comfortable shelter myself."
Du Yuewei nodded and said, "You have done a good job. Our life here has begun to stabilize. Today we have obtained so much food. Everyone is very happy and don't have to go out and take risks anymore."
"Wrong." Xie Tian smacked his lips and said, "The previous broadcast said that zombies had a general migration action. As we came from Yangcheng, we found that the strength of zombies was also increasing. Perhaps the zombies in the south have begun to move north now. Staying here is only temporarily safe. Even I don't have the confidence to support it until exactly when it can be supported."
Du Yuewei asked in surprise: "Do you still have to go north?"
Xie Tian said with a melancholy look on his face: "My family is in Yanjing, and now they have lost contact. I have no way to know whether they are still alive. So I always have to take a look at Yanjing to give up. But at present, I cannot determine when the right time is the right time to set off."
Du Yuewei asked, "Then are you going to take all the soldiers away? Or bring so many survivors together?"
"Impossible." Xie Tian said lightly: "So many people are on the road, but they cannot coordinate and manage them at all. Moreover, many people are eager for comfort. It is not appropriate to finally settle down and force them to embark on a dangerous road again. I really want to organize a team of awakened people. In this way, everyone has a certain strength and it will be more convenient to move together."
"I'm the one." Du Yuewei said.
"What?" Xie Tian frowned and asked, "Are you still going to continue going out for adventure?"
"I want to be stronger." Du Yuewei looked at Xie Tian firmly and said, "I believe that if I follow you, I can realize this wish."
Xie Tian laughed silently, then Xie Tian patted Du Yuewei on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, come with me."
Du Yuewei didn't know where Xie Tian wanted to take her to, but she was still following Xie Tian. Xie Tian took her to the conference room in the general control building. Then, Xie Tian called Zhao Ziye, Xie Xiaofei and Aluo.
All five people are awakened. Except for themselves and Zhao Ziye who are fully awakened and possess a supernatural ability, the other three are the most ordinary awakened people, but they are only unilateral awakening. They don’t know much about each other. Except for A Luo who was seriously injured by a zombie last time but did not die, so that others know the identity of his awakened person, the awakenings of Du Yuewei, Xie Xiaofei and Zhao Ziye are relatively undisclosed.
The five of them sat together, Xie Tian said straight to the point: "You are all awakened people like me. Today I asked everyone to come and meet, and I want to talk to you more."
Xie Xiaofei didn't expect that even Zhao Ziye was an awakened person. After being surprised for a long time, he smiled and said, "I thought that only Brother Xie and I in the safe area, and A Luo were awakened people."
Du Yuewei blushed and said, "I used to think that the whole world was only as lucky as I could suddenly become stronger. Later I realized that I was just the tip of the iceberg, and there were more people stronger than me."
Xie Tian spoke lightly and said, "You three are the most ordinary awakened people. Xiaofei is the power type, Yuewei is the agile type, and Aluo is the power type, each with its own strength. I think if you can communicate more and cooperate more, the effect of combining them in the future will be greater."
Xie Xiaofei said excitedly: "Brother Xie, I have been following you all the way. I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Immediately, Xie Tian took out three crystals from his pocket and handed them to the three of them, saying, "These three crystals contain an energy. Haven't you been curious about how to evolve? I found a breakthrough here, but I don't know if it works for you or how effective it will be."
Except for Xie Xiaofei who had obtained a crystal from Xie Tian, the other two took the crystal with curiosity, while Zhao Ziye, who was standing beside him, was also a little curious about it, but he didn't say it out.
Xie Xiaofei said, "Brother Xie, the one you gave me last time still has energy now, but that kind of energy is very small, and I always feel that the actual effect is not very big."
Xie Tian smiled and said, "When I woke up, I could absorb such a crystal in about two to three days. This may also be related to the different degree of evolution between us."
"How to use this thing?" Du Yuewei asked curiously.
Xie Tian explained: "You, who are not very sensitive to crystals, must hold them in your palms and then feel the energy contained in them with your heart, so that you can absorb the energy in them into your body, but how effective it will depend on yourself."
"I'll try." Du Yuewei hurriedly held the crystal in her hand, then closed her eyes, and A Luo, who was beside her, quickly imitated Du Yuewei's appearance and tried.
After a while, Du Yuewei opened her eyes and said, "It's strange that she can feel an energy inside, and at the same time she can feel the energy it emits being sucked into her body. However, this energy is indeed very small as Xiaofei said, but it just feels comfortable, but it doesn't seem to have much effect."
Xie Tian handed Du Yuewei another one and said, "You try with both hands."
Du Yuewei nodded, took another crystal, held each of her hands tightly, and after a moment, she said, "It's better, it's better, just like a tap at the beginning, a drop of water, now two drops of water in a second. For a thirsty person, it seems to be a drop in the water."
At this time, Aluo also spoke: "It's true, it feels that the effect is very small."
Xie Tian sighed and said, "This should be because your awakening level is too low. In addition to the strengthening of the body, you are not sensitive to the energy in this crystal, but it is better than nothing. This is also the only evolutionary channel I have discovered so far. And I don't know whether ordinary awakened people can still strengthen it. You bring the crystal back. If you absorb it, you can come to me again."
Du Yuewei sighed and said, "This crystal gives me the feeling that it is like a high-energy battery, and I am just a small light bulb. I don't know when I can absorb the energy in it."
"Persevere." Xie Tian shook his head and said, "Maybe my luck is better than you, but I think since you have awakened, I believe there will naturally be room for improvement."
"Yes." Du Yuewei nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'll try my best."
Xie Tian said: "The root cause of zombie evolution and our awakening lies in zombie viruses. Like evolution zombies, what is really mutating in our bodies is the zombie virus rather than our own body organization. So in my opinion, there must be other channels for evolution."
"Increase the content of zombie virus in your body?" Xie Xiaofei blurted out and asked, "Is this reliable? Anyway, we are all immune to zombie viruses. Since you say zombie viruses play a crucial role in us, then trying to increase the content of viruses in your body will make this effect more obvious, right?"
Xie Tian said a little embarrassedly: "This, I probably won't be easy to use. When I went out to find food, I was caught by zombies all over my body and was completely covered in my skin. According to what you said, then so many zombie viruses have suddenly increased in my body. Wouldn't my strength have increased sharply?"
"Then do you have any special feelings?" Xie Xiaofei asked hurriedly.
"No." Xie Tian shrugged his shoulders, pointed at Aluo, and said, "Aluo, he was injured more seriously by zombies before."
Aluo smiled bitterly and said, "My body has not fully recovered yet..."
"Can you eat zombie meat?" Xie Xiaofei suddenly looked at Xie Tian and asked.
Xie Tian nodded and said, "I think it's OK, you go and try it."
"I'd better not..." Xie Xiaofei waved his hand quickly and said, "Zombies used to be humans, it's so disgusting. I would rather not evolve than eat zombie meat."
