Chapter 169: 167 They must have been ambushed.

The yield of the vegetables would increase over time and with each harvest, the output getting higher and higher.

But there was still a slight problem with rice and flour—her level 18 storage was filled with a great quantity of rice because there was no suitable threshing machine, so along with the rice stalks, all of it remained unused.

Regarding the handling of this rice, Hua Mi decided to wait a bit longer.

She had previously purchased a large amount of rice from agricultural trade giants, and with the supplies from the B City warehouse, there was enough to feed the survivors of Xiang City and B City for some time.

When Hua Mi had a chance to speak with Gong Yi again, she would ask him to find some threshing machines, so the consumption of rice would be able to keep up.

Hua Mi added some ginger, scallions, garlic, green peppers, cilantro, spinach, bok choy, tomatoes, cucumbers, Hericium mushrooms, baby bok choy, white turnips, potatoes, carrots, lettuce, cauliflower, cabbage, and corn to the warehouse in the food supply area...

She would account for all these from the several megabytes of credit Gong Yi had given her.

After replenishing the vegetable stocks, Hua Mi flew to the teleportation point of the Xiang City Observation Tower.

At that time, Cao Feng drove with Gong Yi to the outside of the RV supermarket.

Before Cao Feng had even gotten out of the car, Gong Yi leaned forward, massaging his temples,

"She’s not here anymore, have the brothers search elsewhere."

"Boss, you haven’t even gotten out of the car yet."

Cao Feng was somewhat unwilling to give up—their car, if Hua Mi was also driving, should have arrived at the RV supermarket one after the other.

"She’s not here."

Gong Yi’s cheeks twitched as he spoke, his words tinged with a biting frustration.

Was it his nerve power or spiritual power? He could see everything and everyone in the area.

So even without getting out of the car, he knew that Hua Mi was gone.

That vixen sure knew how to run.

Cao Feng made a call to the brothers in Xiang City with doubt, and after "hmm"-ing a few times, he hung up, turning to Gong Yi with a shocked expression,

"Boss, the brothers say Sister Hua is at the Observation Tower."

"Chase her!"

Today Gong Yi was determined, he had to see Hua Mi, he had to clarify things about his daughters!

The central teleportation point of Xiang City Observation Tower was located outside the iron gates of Xiang City.

It was surrounded by a large array of scaffolding, with dozens of laborers bending over to install light tubes.

Because they were working in heavy rain, a huge superstructure made from waterproof oilcloth had been erected, and all the survivors had been cleared away.

No one saw how Hua Mi suddenly appeared.

The Contractor, grinning with a mouth full of gold teeth, straightened up, about to offer a few encouraging words. Turning around, he saw Hua Mi standing in the center of the teleportation point of the Xiang City Observation Tower.

"Miss Hua?"

The Contractor was somewhat surprised, not knowing when Miss Hua had arrived.

He hurriedly approached, fawning obsequiously,

"Miss Hua, you didn’t say you were coming; look at this mess, please be careful, watch your step."

Hua Mi pointed to a pile of provisions nearby—Heart-cleansing Tea, chips (lime-flavored), sunflower seeds (caramel-flavored), oranges, grapefruits, apples, cherries, pomegranates, kiwis, honey melons...

"These are for you as a token of appreciation. After you’re finished with work, come and have some."

Everyone looked over in surprise—when had a small mountain suddenly appeared here?

Indeed, as they were tirelessly working on construction, they had neglected to notice that someone had brought in a mountain of provisions into the tent.

"Thank you, Miss Hua, it’s really good working with you."

The Contractor was no longer surprised by the appearance of these provisions, as it was common for a pile of supplies to suddenly materialize on the busy construction site.

"Miss Hua sent them a comfort gift.

Actual, tangible comfort goods, not included in the daily wages.

So, how could the contractor not revere Miss Hua like an ancestor? In these times, money is nothing; real, solid goods are what truly matter.

Thus the contractor shouted at the top of his lungs,

"Everyone, perk up! Finish your tasks and you’ll all get a share of fruits and snacks."

"Alright!"

Everyone was cheerfully motivated, each person working with renewed vigor.

The promise of supplies was their motivation.

"Miss Hua, come over, take a look."

On a bustling construction site, the contractor led Hua Mi to a cement space illuminated by lights, all secretive and excited.

He took out a drill and, under Hua Mi’s puzzled gaze, began drilling into the smooth cement.

"Eh? This...?"

Hua Mi, surprised, looked at the unaffected cement ground and asked,

"What’s going on here? Why isn’t the drill affecting the cement?"

Then it dawned on her, recalling the troublemakers who had sought her out, driving a car into her supermarket’s wall in an attempt to break it down.

Yet not even a speck of dust had been dislodged from that wall.

The contractor said mysteriously,

"This is the resilient cement gifted by Miss Hua. If we could have a bit more of this, we could rebuild the whole of Xiang City without fearing earthquakes or the like."

Hua Mi was greatly inspired; unfortunately, the cement she had was won in a lottery, with no way to produce it in a consistent quantity.

After thinking for a moment, she said to the contractor,

"Just having resilient cement isn’t enough. Build a perimeter around this space, with platforms to mount machine guns on, and construct a few small artillery towers nearby."

As Hua Mi spoke, the contractor became puzzled. Was Miss Hua preparing for a war?

Why defend a simple, patterned space so intensely?

However, the contractor was Hua Mi’s chief lackey; despite his confusion, he certainly wouldn’t show it.

Bowing and scraping, he flattered her to the best of his ability,

"Yes, yes, Miss Hua’s word is law. How about we collaborate with the garrison to get a professional defense blueprint?"

"Good, coordinate that with Cao Feng. I want this place secured so tightly that not even a fly could enter."

Hua Mi pointed to the 1-square-meter teleportation point on the Black Land at the center of the space.

No one could understand now why she would pay such a high price to build this space, so extravagantly too.

But once zombies and mutant fauna and flora appeared, they would understand how many lives a teleportation point could save.

As long as the teleportation point existed, no matter how deep survivors were in a monster-infested area, they could teleport back to the city.

So, how could this teleportation point not be built as securely and safely as possible?

After briefing the contractor, Hua Mi found a secluded spot and with a quick teleport, left Xiang City to arrive at [B City Supply Depot].

She had just left when Cao Feng and Gong Yi’s car arrived at the Observation Tower.

This time, before Cao Feng could take a look, their car exploded!

"Boss, danger!!!"

Cao Feng shouted, looking around frantically. In the nick of time, only one thought crossed his mind.

They had definitely been ambushed."
