107: Chapter 107 Yan Zhengping's Plan
Looking out, crystalss piled up like a small mountain shimmered with brilliant light.
"How's the cleanup going?" Yan Fangfang asked a Soldier who was moving crystalss nearby.
"Reporting, Instructor Yan, it will take some more time," the Soldier replied, standing at attention.
"Understood! Once the crystalss are collected, gather the corpses, douse them with gasoline, and burn them all.
No burying is allowed," Yan Fangfang commanded.
"But..." The Soldier hesitated slightly; gasoline was a precious commodity now.
"Execute the order!" Yan Fangfang offered no explanation.
"Yes!"
The biggest cause of the ecological crisis was the virus carried by the dead zombie corpses, which contaminated microorganisms.
While doing this might not change the ultimate outcome of microbial mutation, every little bit helped.
From the Soldier's report, it was estimated that approximately 180,000 crystalss were obtained this time.
This was a significant number, but for Oriental Chen, it wasn't enough.
To heal all the injured Soldiers, over 1,200 doses each of targeted medicine and antigen were needed.
At a price of 200 crystalss per dose, the total cost would be nearly 500,000 crystalss.
"Sister Yan, the quantity isn't enough!" Oriental Chen said.
"Hmm?" Yan Fangfang didn't understand Oriental Chen's meaning.
"I've roughly calculated that the total medicine needed is over 2,400 doses, amounting to nearly 500,000 crystalss.
Currently, you only have less than 200,000, which is quite a large deficit," Oriental Chen explained.
"You're still going to charge money?" Yan Fangfang glared at him.
"Wow! What are you doing? Are you planning to rob me? Let me tell you, business is business!
I can save people, but I can't pay out of my own pocket!" Oriental Chen glared back.
"Why are you so greedy?" Yan Fangfang was exasperated.
"You can't say that!
This doesn't even include the cost of treating your father; that one injection isn't cheap, at least 10,000 crystalss.
Besides, if I don't have crystalss, the base can't operate.
Then if you need help again, I won't have the capability!" Oriental Chen said, with a slight hint of threat.
"Then what should we do? You promised to cure everyone within three days.
You can't go back on your word!" Yan Fangfang said.
"Of course not.
I didn't say I wouldn't treat them, and I can lend you the medicine first, but you'll have to make up the crystalss later!" Oriental Chen looked like a stingy landlord.
"You...! Fine!" Yan Fangfang was speechless and could only agree.
"That's more like it!
I'll consider the injection for your father a good deed and give it to you for free.
However, once these crystalss are counted, please load them onto my plane as soon as possible.
The base is waiting for these crystalss to produce medicine," Oriental Chen added.
"Alright!" Yan Fangfang couldn't be bothered to look at him and shouted loudly.
"Report!"
Just as the two were talking, a Soldier ran over to report.
"Speak," Yan Fangfang responded.
"Instructor Yan, that woman is dead!" the Soldier replied.
"Dead? How did she die?" Yan Fangfang was surprised.
She had originally wanted to ask that woman why she did what she did, why she helped those cultists frame the Soldiers who protected them.
But she didn't expect the woman to die first.
"It was likely poison," the Soldier answered.
"What about the child?" Yan Fangfang continued to ask.
"Also dead."
Yan Fangfang froze.
What a ruthless person!
Ruthless to others, but even more ruthless to herself and her child.
"How long has she been dead?" Yan Fangfang asked.
"The body is cold; she probably died in the middle of the night," the Soldier replied.
It seemed she knew the news had leaked, and the consequences of her not dying would be even more severe.
"Alright, I understand.
Arrange for a few people to find a place to bury her," Yan Fangfang commanded.
"Yes!"
The Soldier accepted the order and left.
...
Once everything was done and the crystalss were loaded onto the plane, Oriental Chen hurried back to the base.
Yan Zhengping didn't wake up until evening.
After a day of rest, his physical strength had largely recovered.
Subsequently, Yan Fangfang recounted to Yan Zhengping everything that happened after he fainted last night and the results of today's interrogation.
Upon learning the full story, Yan Zhengping was furious.
When he heard that Oriental Chen could actually produce medicine to treat infected people, he was overjoyed.
However, when he heard that Oriental Chen wanted to collect crystalss, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he didn't mind.
He did not advocate for killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.
If you scare people away or use them up too much at once, it would be detrimental to both parties in the long run.
"These crystalss must be given.
Not only must they be given, but they must be gathered as quickly as possible.
You should then instruct the Zhanfeng Assault Team and the directly affiliated special forces to speed up the collection of crystalss.
I believe that as long as we continuously supply him with crystalss, he will definitely bring us more surprises," Yan Zhengping instructed.
"Yes!" Yan Fangfang accepted the order.
"Oh, right.
Fangfang, also for Zongzheng Yue in the Southeast Military Region, appropriately increase their quota.
This way, our speed of acquiring crystalss will be faster.
These next few days, I will also take the Zhanfeng Assault Team to the Northeast Military Region and Northwest Military Region.
I think the harvest will be considerable."
Yan Zhengping was preparing to help Oriental Chen advertise.
It was known that Combat Suits were sold to Zongzheng Yue at a price of 160 crystalss per piece, yielding a huge profit.
How could they not utilize such a good resource?
Relying solely on their own Soldiers to hunt zombies would only earn them meager wages.
Mobilizing everyone to hunt zombies together was a highly profitable business.
This was beneficial to everyone, so why not do it?
