Chapter 164 Management

Hearing Qingluan's words, Li Chenzhou's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected this girl, only twenty-two or twenty-three years old, to have such foresight.

Indeed, in the post-apocalyptic world, the most important thing is children, especially those over the age of five. In the future, they will be the true backbone, the hope of humanity.

After all, they grew up in the post-apocalyptic world, are extremely familiar with it, and are well-adapted. In another five or six years, those children who are now around ten years old will be a force to be reckoned with.

However, many base leaders only suddenly thought of this situation two or three years after the apocalypse. By that time, too many children had already died for various reasons. After all, they were too young and their survival skills were too poor, leading to their early elimination.

With Qingluan's words, Li Chenzhou's thoughts became more firm. He looked at Qingluan and said:

"Qingluan, as far as I know, there are still about less than a thousand survivors in this manor. Apart from the women, they are all strong young men. If I let you rule this manor and turn it into a large human survival base, do you have the confidence?"

"What?"

Qingluan was stunned. She looked up at Li Chenzhou and, seeing the serious expression on his face, she knew that Li Chenzhou was not joking with her.

But after hesitating for a while, Qingluan finally shook her head and said:

"I'm sorry, I don't have the confidence! In this world, you need enough strength to do anything. If you support me, perhaps I can rule here while you are here, but once you leave, we won't have enough power to suppress others. In the end… I'll still become a plaything for other men.

"Moreover, I was once the leader of this base. This will only increase other men's interest in me. When that time comes, my situation will only be even more miserable!"

"How do you know we're leaving?"

Li Chenzhou asked Qingluan with some curiosity. He only asked Qingluan if she wanted to rule this manor, but he didn't say that they would leave.

"If you were going to stay here all the time, you wouldn't have asked me that question before!"

Qingluan replied immediately:

"In that case, this manor would only be under your rule, and you would have enough power to suppress others. But you asked me if I was interested in ruling here, which means that you are not interested in this place and will leave soon, right?"

"You're right! We will indeed leave here!"

Li Chenzhou didn't hide anything and nodded directly:

"However… what you need to consider now is whether you have enough ability to manage this manor and turn it into a base suitable for human survival. As for the ability issue, you don't have to worry. Since I want to hand this manor over to you to rule, then I will naturally give you enough power to deter others!"

"Really?"

Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, Qingluan's eyes lit up, and then she said firmly:

"If I have enough ability, I can definitely make this place the best base in Qi City!"

"Good!"

Li Chenzhou didn't say much. He nodded and said:

"Then choose two more people to be your deputies. I will first make you all evolutionaries. After that, you will need to enter the city with us and try to kill zombies. As a base leader, you definitely can't have never killed zombies. You must manage the base and protect it! Only in this way will the other survivors truly rely on you!"

"Yes!"

Qingluan nodded immediately, and then, without turning her head, she directly called out two names:

"Li Jing, Li Meng! You two come here!"

Two girls around twenty years old with extremely similar appearances immediately stepped forward and stood beside Qingluan. Although there was doubt in their eyes, they didn't ask anything and just stood there quietly.

"Her name is Li Jing, and her name is Li Meng. They are twins. I trust them!"

Qingluan looked at Li Chenzhou and said.

"Good! Then it's the three of you! Come with me!"

Li Chenzhou nodded, then looked around and casually found a shop and walked over. Qingluan, Li Jing, and Li Meng immediately followed.

Five or six minutes later, Li Chenzhou walked out with the three girls, and there was already a look of ecstasy flashing in Qingluan's, Li Jing's, and Li Meng's eyes.

That's right, they had all used the evolutionary potion and become ability users. Moreover, to Li Chenzhou's surprise, all three girls had awakened their talents and become Awakeners.

Especially Li Jing and Li Meng, the twins, their talent abilities could even be combined and released, making Li Chenzhou extremely jealous. With the two of them, even if a zombie tide came, the Qian Yuan Lake Manor base would definitely be as stable as Mount Tai.

"Alright! There's still more than half a day left today. I'll give you this time to deal with the affairs in the manor. You can do whatever you want, and we won't interfere. Then, starting tomorrow morning, the three of you will enter the city with us!"

After coming out, Li Chenzhou said to Qingluan, Li Meng, and Li Jing:

"Remember, my request is that you build this manor into a human survival base, because the conditions here are very good. You all know what the world is like now. The more humans survive, the more likely we are to exterminate the zombies and regain control of this planet!"

"Yes!"

The three women bowed respectfully to Li Chenzhou.

Although Li Chenzhou didn't take them as followers, nor did he say that they would have to obey him in the future, the three women had already regarded Li Chenzhou as their benefactor at this time, and they would obey all of Li Chenzhou's orders unconditionally.

If it weren't for Li Chenzhou and the others, Qingluan and the others would still be playthings for those fatuous men. Although they already had a plan to launch in the near future and kill those men.

However, Qingluan and the others knew that their success rate was not high, and even if they could successfully kill those men, they would eventually die, because they would definitely not be a match for those fully armed soldiers.

Their plan was only for revenge, not for survival!

But now, they have not only survived, but have also become Awakeners, and will even become the leaders of this base.

For them, without Li Chenzhou, there would be no present or future for them. Therefore, for them, Li Chenzhou is the most important person in their lives, and they will unconditionally obey whatever he says!

"Go! Quickly deal with the survivors in the manor, including… including them! Solve all the problems, and we can leave with peace of mind tomorrow! Remember, go ahead and do it! According to your own ideas! Don't worry about anyone!"

Li Chenzhou waved his hand, indicating that this manor would be handed over to these three girls. Then, he waved to Gray Bear and prepared to take him away…
