Chapter 149: 147 Hua Mi is their top client (Wishing everyone a Happy New Year)

In the garrison camp of City A, when one garrison left, another and then a third would leave.

They would first return to their own homes, settle their families, and then rush together to Xiang City.

Commander Gong had already mentioned in the telegram that he would establish a new camp for the City A garrison, welcoming families to come to Xiang City.

If those from the City A garrison encountered any survivors on their way, he asked them to help if possible, bringing all willing survivors to Xiang City.

Nothing more needed to be said—mentioning the survivors in the telegram was encouragement enough for the garrison of City A.

So, Liu Shengyuan could only watch as, finally, most of the garrison left the camp.

He didn’t stop them.

Because he knew he couldn’t stop them.

The last garrison standing before Liu Shengyuan asked,

"Squad Leader, aren’t you coming with us?"

Liu Shengyuan shook his head, his figure in the rain, his gaze determined but showing a trace of stubbornness.

The garrison facing him frowned and growled,

"Squad Leader, I don’t mean to criticize, but why stay here? Don’t you realize what will become of you if you do?"

"I’ll tell you—you’ll become Chen Hu’s personal bodyguard, helping Chen Hu kill and seize profits."

"Squad Leader, we shouldn’t be like this, you achieved Squad Leader’s rank, can’t you see that?"

Liu Shengyuan chuckled,

"Do you think I don’t understand?"

"But where has our garrison commander gone? There should be some explanation, right?"

Whether alive or dead, there must be an answer.

Alive, why isn’t he managing the garrison? Why allow them to be manipulated by Chen Hu?

Why give the resource depot of City A to the Chen Family?

If dead, how did he die? Someone must retrieve the dignity of the City A garrison. Shouldn’t the person responsible for the City A garrison commander’s death pay with their life?

"Go, Commander Gong is a decisive person. He will surely lead you to maximize your value."

Liu Shengyuan patted the shoulder of the garrison before him, watching as he departed.

Finally, he turned to the few dozen garrisons remaining and asked,

"Aren’t you leaving?"

"We won’t leave. We want to stay and find our garrison commander with you, Squad Leader."

Someone answered Liu Shengyuan. Garrisons are human too; they each have their own thoughts—some choose to leave and play their greatest roles under Commander Gong.

Others choose to stay and fight alongside Liu Shengyuan.

Whether alive or dead, they need to see the garrison commander of City A.

At this moment in Xiang City, Hua Mi had no clue that a group of robust men were braving the rain at night, rushing toward her.

She stood outside the iron gates of Xiang City, looking up at the towering observation tower.

Huo Jing and his contractor relative indeed proved to be very capable, quickly constructing an observation tower using the cement provided by Hua Mi.

The observation tower was equipped with laser lights in all directions.

These laser lights were especially bright in the darkness, capable of reaching far distances.

They could guide survivors wandering alone in the night toward the direction of Xiang City.

Hua Mi’s external teleportation point was decided to be placed beneath this observation tower.

Behind her stood Huo Jing and the contractor, both following closely behind Hua Mi, listening to her speak,

"Here, I want to create a flat area, with a complicated and beautiful pattern, preferably with special light effects, such that when someone steps on it, light will flow out from beneath their feet, slowly illuminating the entire pattern on the ground."

Hua Mi described to them that this technology should not be difficult, as many cities had sensory lights and touch lights before the apocalypse.

Huo Jing had a slight objection,

"Miss Hua, the effect you’re asking for is not difficult to achieve, we can install some lights and sensing devices to make it happen, but Miss Hua, why do we need these flashy and impractical things right now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the contractor slapped the back of Huo Jing’s head,

"Whatever Miss Hua says, we do, why do you talk so much nonsense?"

After all, he was too young to know that Hua Mi was their absolute boss, and whatever the absolute boss says is the divine truth, a royal decree!

Then the contractor grinned, showing his gold teeth, and laughing with a nod from Hua Mi,

"Miss Hua, this idea of yours is really good, tall and prominent. Don’t worry, later on, I’ll plant a few trees on this plot, all fitted with lights, and whenever someone walks past these trees, the lighting effects will be spectacular, just flowing."

He gestured, then raised three fingers,

"I swear, if I don’t make it beautifully stunning, comparable to the opening ceremony of the Olympics, you can chop off my head."

"Let’s not exaggerate that much."

Hua Mi pointed to the center of the open space,

"Leave me one square meter here for a light effect center, as soon as someone stands on it, it should whoosh up a cylindrical light."

After all, teleportation ought to be worth the price of a teleportation ticket.

Without some special effects, people might not feel the magic.

Next time, they might prefer walking instead of teleporting back to the city.

Then, Hua Mi turned back to the contractor and Huo Jing,

"Do a good job and finish this task as soon as possible, I have many more projects like this that need to be done."

She allocated one square meter under the Xiang City Observation Tower and entrusted Huo Jing and his relatives with the construction of the teleportation point.

She returned to her own Lotus Shengxing Supermarket, setting up the remaining eight square meters of Black Land within the residential compound walls.

Those eight square meters, Hua Mi planted longan, pear, cherry, banana, chestnut, grape, snow lotus fruit, and water chestnut.

Added to the fruits and vegetables she already grew, Hua Mi could harvest quite a lot of crops every day.

Looking at the huge quantity of straw matting, Hua Mi sighed; she made a call to Ye Rong,

"Do you still have manpower to weave straw mats? I’ve got so much straw matting here, I need to clear some out."

"Where did you get so much straw matting?

Ye Rong somewhat couldn’t understand, saying Hua Mi hoarded oranges or dark mustard-flavored mini hot pots, she’d understand.

After all, they’re food, right? But when pressed, people would hoard whatever they can.

Besides, the dark mustard-flavored mini hot pot was actually not bad-tasting, similar to durian, people who like the taste love it intensely, and those who don’t find it nauseating.

Ye Rong actually liked the dark mustard-flavored self-heating mini hot pot quite a bit; she now ate it twice a day.

So Ye Rong could understand Hua Mi; she just couldn’t grasp how she had hoarded so much straw matting,

Enough to need even more manpower to weave straw mats?
