Chapter 291: Contact was made with the Coastal Alliance!

The entire city of Changhan was shrouded in sorrow; white mourning banners fluttered in the breeze as countless people paid their respects to the departed souls.

This time, after the death and injury statistics were compiled, the number of soldiers killed and wounded exceeded 10,000!

They had only one goal: to wipe out all the zombies in Changhan City! Although their heroic spirits have departed, this goal has finally been achieved!

Wei Lun sat in the courtyard. Over the past few days, he had witnessed soldiers being dismembered by zombies, and the hatred and pain he felt were something he could never forget.

But all of this was necessary. The zombies are gone, and the world is starting anew.

Changhan City has become a veritable paradise for humans; compared to some areas overrun by zombies, it's simply heaven.

Qin Mutong, holding a cup of milk tea, greedily sipped it as she walked over to Wei Lun.

She was happy now, knowing that all the zombies had been eliminated, and felt a great sense of security. However, she was puzzled as to why Wei Lun's face was so serious, his brows furrowed, as if he were worried about something.

"Honey, what's wrong with you? The zombies have all been wiped out. Shouldn't that be something to be happy about?"

Qin Mutong tilted her head and asked, her eyes full of questions, while simultaneously watching Wei Lun's expression.

Women are always carefree; how could they be happy when so many soldiers' souls have not yet departed?

"Hey, it's nothing. My concern is that all the settlements are severely damaged, and what will happen next?"

While feeling grief and self-reproach for the dead, Wei Lun also felt immense pain as the Changhan City area, now a human settlement, suffered devastating damage.

Fortunately, the zombies have now been cleared out, so their safety is basically not a concern.

Changhan City is now practically a goldmine, because zombie cores are everywhere. Even though the guards and some settlement groups are more discreet, there are still many zombie cores that haven't been mined.

Therefore, a new zombie-hunting team has now been created, specifically to find zombies whose crystal cores have not been extracted.

Finding a zombie crystal core can bring in a fortune, so the supply of zombie crystal cores has been constantly increasing these past few days, causing prices to fluctuate wildly.

However, that's not the most important thing. The whole country has witnessed the changes in Changhan City, especially the soldiers who risked their lives fighting the zombies. Now, Changhan City has been restored to a peaceful environment.

Everyone was shocked; they were likely to experience another wave of emigration, given how superior the lifestyle was in Changhan City.

"Honey, how about we give them some more support?"

"Anyway, we have the equipment, so assembling a team is easy. This is already the apocalypse, why are you still so sentimental?"

Qin Mutong didn't quite understand. Deaths were perfectly normal; even if humans didn't fight the zombies, more people would likely die.

Every time a zombie horde strikes, don't tens of thousands of people die?

Now the problem is solved once and for all. To be able to change the entire landscape of Changhan City with the sacrifice of 10,000 is already incredibly difficult, and it's all worthwhile.

Therefore, people are now more willing to go out and relax. Zombies are rarely seen on this land; even if one does appear, it's usually beaten to death by a group of humans.

"Yes, some supplies are fine, but weapons and equipment are unnecessary."

"Here's what we'll do. Go and make the arrangements. All the forces that participated in this battle will be rewarded with a thousand catties of wheat flour."

Wei Lun nodded and said that he wasn't being overly benevolent towards these forces, but rather that failing to offer them some compensation might provoke a backlash.

Many people have died. How will their families survive? Without food, they might start attacking the Guardians.

After all, the Guardians had armor, so far fewer people died, only about 20-30%, and their total numbers were only a few hundred.

"Okay, I'll go right away, but the warehouse may be completely empty of grain."

Qin Mutong said something, then turned around and went to arrange the compensation.

Qin Mutong knew perfectly well that Wei Lun had more money than he could spend and more food than he could possibly have; it was just a matter of making another trip.

Wei Lun checked the time; it was noon, lunchtime.

Suddenly, he missed Zhao Xiang's cooking. He left the courtyard and walked into the house, going up to the third floor.

In the same room where he had traveled through time, Wei Lun activated the black jade pendant.

A flash of white light, and Wei Lun vanished.

In the familiar room, with its cozy furnishings, Wei Lun took a long breath.

He took out his phone and dialed Li's number directly.

A familiar voice came through the phone; Li's tone was always very respectful.

"Boss, what do you need? I'm at your service!"

Li said with a smile, "The factory's business is constantly expanding, and the whole factory is now thriving."

Not only that, Li's salary has been steadily increasing, and his life is much better than before. All of this is thanks to his boss, Wei Lun.

"Stop talking nonsense, bring me a cartload of grain, just like before, and purchase some other goods as well."

After Wei Lun finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Li shook his head and sighed that his boss was too busy. No matter what the boss needed the food for, as his subordinate, he had to complete the task perfectly.

Wei Lun pushed open the door and walked downstairs.

At this moment, Zhao Xiang was eating; it looked like a simple lunch, just some noodles.

Hearing a sound coming from the stairs, Zhao Xiang was pleasantly surprised. She turned around and saw that it was her boss!

"Waaah... Boss, you're back?"

"I'll go prepare lunch for you right away!"

Zhao Xiang quickly put down her chopsticks and rushed into the kitchen. Without Wei Lun saying a word, she was extremely obedient.

Wei Lun smiled, and after arriving on the first floor, the little fairy robot proactively brought him a glass of juice.

Hey, ever since Wei Lun went to the apocalypse, his life couldn't be more comfortable. He gets whatever he wants, and now he's being waited on hand and foot.

Soon, the kitchen was filled with delicious aromas.

After Wei Lun finished eating lunch, Li Shi's goods arrived.

As usual, Zhao Xiang was washing dishes in the kitchen, while Wei Lun was in the yard storing all the grain into his jade pendant space.

After telling Zhao Xiang, Wei Lun returned to his room and traveled back to the apocalypse.

Just as Qin Mutong reached the first floor, she bumped into someone.

"Honey, all the grain has been shipped out, and the warehouse is empty now."

Qin Mutong said, her face slightly flushed, probably from being busy.

"No, it's okay, I brought them all."

Wei Lun smiled, completely calm and collected. Only Wei Lun could remain so composed in the face of so much food. In this apocalypse, only Wei Lun could guarantee that everyone would be well-fed.

"Also, honey, Fu Xixi has made contact with the coastal alliance!"

Qin Mutong continued, saying that she was also very shocked about this coastal alliance!
