After Ju Tianrui left, Zhong Chuchu brought Old Huang and Xiao Ye over to Li Yu.

Looking at Li Yu, Zhong Chuchu said, "City Lord, I'm sorry, I didn't have time to answer your question just now."

Li Yu waved his hand, indicating it was fine, and told her to get to the point. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Zhong Chuchu hesitated for a few seconds, then said to Li Yu somewhat nervously, "These people used to be from Oil City, they were with us. They're very grateful that you saved them....

Back then, when we were attacked by the Motorcycle Gang, we were forced to scatter in all directions, some people were captured. They have nowhere to go now, and I was thinking, I was thinking... whether they could, like us, become Cooperative Personnel of Big Camphor Tree Base."

As if afraid Li Yu would misunderstand, she added, "Please be assured, Oil City was taken by the Motorcycle Gang, and now it belongs to you. They only feel grateful to you and won't want to take it back. They just want a way to survive. What do you think..."

Li Yu glanced at the people behind her; most of them were young and strong, and at this moment they were all looking at him with eager faces.

In their eyes, any power that Zhong Chuchu was willing to follow and join couldn't be bad, especially since it was this very force that had just wiped out the Motorcycle Gang.

Li Yu's face was expressionless, but his mind was racing.

In the Doomsday, people were in fact a kind of strategic resource.

Only with people, especially capable people, could there be continuous "blood transfusion" and expansion.

But the stability of people was very hard to control. For Li Yu, he would rather not have so many people if it meant he could guarantee their character.

Otherwise, if something went wrong, it could lead to a huge disaster.

From the fact that this group hadn't cursed at that woman just now, he could see some things, but it still wasn't enough.

Although they would only become Cooperative Personnel, which was all benefit and no harm for Big Camphor Tree Base—after all, it was merely a cooperative relationship, with no obligation or need to provide them with protection and food, just mutual exchange of what each side needed.

Li Yu thought it over, then said, "I'll think about it and give you an answer later."

As it happened, Ju Tianrui and the others were moving the Motorcycle Gang's supplies. He would send those people over to act as porters and see if anyone tried to steal anything. Anyone who did was definitely not someone he could keep.

However, Li Yu wasn't going to tell Zhong Chuchu that this was a test. Only after they were finished would he tell her the result.

So he had Ju Tianrui come over and explained it to him, telling him to load the weapons and ammunition onto the vehicles first and not let those people touch them. As for the other items, he told him to have the people behind Zhong Chuchu move them later.

He also told Ju Tianrui to pass the word along and have everyone keep their eyes open to see if anyone tried to steal.

Then Li Yu went to find Zhong Chuchu again and said to her, "You said I saved their lives, and they're very grateful to me?"

"Yes. They want to come over and thank you in person. Should I bring them here?"

Li Yu waved his hand and said, "No need. How about this: since they're so grateful to me, then have them help me move some things."

"Huh? Okay, move what?" Zhong Chuchu was taken aback when she heard that, but still nodded in agreement.

"Old Ju, you explain it to her." Li Yu had Ju Tianrui, who was beside him, come over and speak to Zhong Chuchu.

One minute later.

Zhong Chuchu nodded, indicating there was no problem.

Then she went back and relayed the news to Old Huang and the others.

When Old Huang heard this, he looked at the young man in the distance, a strong appreciation showing in his eyes. No wonder he could possess such strength in the Doomsday—clearly he relied not only on firepower, but also on sufficient caution.
