Chapter 231
Yun Xiaoxiao may be small in stature, but her words carry an undeniable dominating force.
With just a few sentences, she managed to intimidate those who were secretly plotting.
No one doubted the authenticity of her words.
Yesterday evening, when she dealt with Sun Jian, she showed no mercy, truly embodying the image of a "poisonous little pill."
The people behind her also looked far from easy to deal with.
"You can rest assured, as allies, our Western Base will naturally guarantee your rights and safety.
Anyone who harbors ill intentions and makes underhanded moves will be pursued to the fullest extent by our Western Base.
Once discovered, accountability will be ensured!"
Peng Shaowei confidently assured everyone.
He even glanced specifically at Sun Jian and his group, clearly issuing a warning.
Yun Xiaoxiao raised her eyes slightly. Peng Shaowei was indeed impressive, with a clear and perceptive mind.
Hearing Peng Shaowei's words, the burly Sun Jian frowned deeply.
He exchanged a glance with Liao Yongchang.
The latter closed his eyes and gently shook his head.
Sun Jian immediately felt a surge of frustration.
Yun Xiaoxiao glanced at him indifferently but said nothing.
Afterwards, she discussed the details of the collaboration with Peng Shaowei and other base leaders.
The results were mostly within her expectations.
For all bases wishing to purchase Evolution Serum,
Evolution Serum up to Level 3 would be sold at an 80% discount off the original price.
Meaning, one could exchange 40 crystals of the same level for a vial of Evolution Serum.
For Evolution Serum up to Level 6, the discount would be 70%.
And for those above Level 6, the discount would be 60%.
This pricing was quite reasonable.
Although the price was lower than before, Yun Xiaoxiao supported the Zombie Clearance Plan wholeheartedly.
It was only natural to show some sincerity.
Moreover, no matter how low the price, she would still be the one profiting.
After all, a single crystal could produce a vial of Evolution Serum.
Everything else was pure profit.
In addition to Evolution Serum, she also listed various supplies on a detailed inventory.
Each item was marked with its price.
Of course, these supplies would also be purchased with crystals.
She had plenty of both supplies and Evolution Serum.
What she lacked was crystals.
Her pricing received no objections from the others.
Even if there were any, they were ignored.
After settling this, Peng Shaowei began to outline his plan.
He proposed selecting combat-effective individuals from each base to form a joint force.
Then, starting from points and extending to lines and surfaces, they would systematically reclaim areas occupied by zombies.
"This will be a very difficult battle, and there will undoubtedly be sacrifices.
So, our principle remains the same: voluntary participation.
You can return to your bases and discuss this with your people.
However, those who participate will receive preferential treatment in terms of supplies and other benefits."
Peng Shaowei explained slowly.
"Additionally, every time we reclaim an area, the collected supplies and crystals will be distributed according to the number of participants from each base and their contributions, striving for fairness and justice."
"When do you anticipate this operation starting?" someone asked.
Peng Shaowei replied, "We'll give everyone half a month to select personnel and prepare. Half a month later, we'll gather here again to begin our first campaign."
"During this half-month, I'll also arrange for some explosives to be prepared."
To further refine the plan, everyone returned to the second floor of the cafeteria for a meeting.
The meeting lasted for several hours.
It wasn't until around 11 p.m. that it concluded.
Many subsequent issues were thoroughly discussed.
Just before the end, Hao Ren arrived with his subordinates.
They placed several large baskets on the ground.
Inside the baskets were all kinds of crystals.
Hao Ren handed a list to Peng Shaowei and whispered a few words.
Peng Shaowei nodded and then looked at the others.
"Gentlemen, these are all the crystals collected today, excluding those from Yun City and Xiangrui Base.
We've calculated the total amount each base should receive based on their strength level and number of participants.
The details are recorded on this list.
Please pass it around and review it. If there are no issues, we'll proceed with the distribution according to the list."
Peng Shaowei gestured to Hao Ren, who immediately took the list and handed it to Jiang Huai.
Jiang Huai glanced at it and shook his head.
"No problem, it seems fair."
He then passed it to Wang Dahai, and it continued to circulate among everyone present.
Yun Xiaoxiao could sense that some people were not entirely satisfied, feeling they had received less than they deserved.
But no one voiced any objections on the surface, all saying it was acceptable.
Yun Xiaoxiao chuckled softly.
"Little girl, what are you laughing at?" someone asked, puzzled by her sudden laughter.
Yun Xiaoxiao looked back at him leisurely.
"Aren't you feeling like your base got shortchanged?"
"I... I didn't!" the man stammered, flustered.
Yun Xiaoxiao glanced at him. "Even if you did, what's there to be flustered about?
If you really feel you got less, you can speak up.
We value long-term cooperation, so it's better to express any dissatisfaction early.
Otherwise, if negative emotions build up over time, they might explode later, and that would be scary."
Yun Xiaoxiao smiled meaningfully.
Small conflicts are easy to resolve.
What's terrifying is when small conflicts are not addressed, accumulating into a mountain of grievances.
By then, resolving them would be nearly impossible.
She didn't want any hidden "time bombs" during their collaboration.
"I..." the man frowned.
He was unsure how Yun Xiaoxiao knew his thoughts.
But he indeed felt a bit dissatisfied.
Just as he didn't know how to express it, Yun Xiaoxiao pointed out two other individuals.
The two, caught off guard, initially felt awkward but quickly became more candid, immediately voicing their concerns.
Seeing this, he had no choice but to speak up.
Afterward, he indeed felt much more relieved.
It turned out that his share had indeed been calculated with a minor error.
Peng Shaowei immediately made up the difference from his own share of crystals.
As for the other two, they had simply misunderstood the calculations.
Aliali: 67613dfc87939c8e13ac5983After Hao Ren's explanation, they also understood and their grievances were resolved.
Thus, it's better to clarify things face to face.
Keeping things bottled up can lead to misunderstandings.
What might start as a small issue could eventually escalate into an unsolvable problem.
Peng Shaowei looked at Yun Xiaoxiao with appreciation.
"What Xiaoxiao just pointed out is correct. Since we are all part of the same alliance now, absolute trust is essential.
So, if anyone feels something is amiss, it's important to speak up and discuss it together."
After distributing the crystals, Peng Shaowei pointed to the remaining ones.
"These were originally meant for our Western Base.
But I'd like to contribute them all to purchase food for our first operation."
