Chapter 6 Stepping Stones in the End Times
Yunyan quickly put her mind at ease and strolled around the base that afternoon.
In the eyes of others, she was just strolling around. But only she knew that Commander Jiang wanted him to find out the situation of the base and understand it from the grassroots level.
Only when the foundation is laid firmly can the upper structure not be shaky.
She didn't tell Jiang Yuchuan and Chen Yangyang that if they were there, she might not be able to see the real appearance.
On the second day and the third day, Yunyan did not let Jiang Yuchuan and Chen Jingyang follow her.
In the past few days, I have basically figured out the structure of grassroots workers and people with special abilities. Although they each have their own duties, there are also some who are sneaky and cunning.
Some are lazy, some take advantage, and some bully the weak.
Many times, Yunyan almost couldn't help but want to teach them a lesson.
Fortunately, she held back. There are people in charge of public security in the base. Some harmless incidents will be given verbal education, but those who violate the principles will pay the corresponding price.
Basically, every family has some miscellaneous troubles and all kinds of people.
When Yunyan first saw those gossipy women, disloyal men, and selfish people, she really wanted to teach them a lesson.
But as I watched, it seemed to be just like this. From the memory of my original body, there were all kinds of people in society. Even if I didn't like them, they were still an important part of society.
They have never missed any work every day, but these tiny tasks as small as dust particles, when put together, form a huge production chain that allows this base to develop.
Yunyan seemed to understand why Jiang Yuchuan wanted to save so many people. Some of them might be good, some might be evil, but they were all important components of the country's productivity, just like the sea water that carries giant ships, whether clear or turbid, they are all indispensable.
Only with them can human civilization continue.
Well, the pattern is a bit big. Yunyan is a layman, she doesn't quite understand.
Yunyan also truly experienced the current laws during these few days.
There are rules for all this.
No rules no standards!
In the next few days, Yunyan got to work. She actively participated in the team to annihilate the zombies. Her strong strength made the people in the base convinced of her. After all, human instinct is to admire the strong.
Yunyan also gained a lot of fans because of this.
In her spare time, Yunyan would go to the market, help the old ladies fetch water, and chat with the old men.
The wisdom of the working people should not be underestimated, especially these uncles and aunts. Otherwise, why do we say that old ginger is still spicy!
In short, Yunyan learned a lot during this period of time, which her master could not teach her.
Other leaders in the base had long heard about Yunyan's ideas about the base. At first, they thought that this girl would run around among the leaders and lobby them in various ways.
But after half a month, Yunyan had not come once. They couldn't help but be curious, so they sent people to inquire about her. They were shocked when they found out.
Yunyan is very powerful and many people in the base admire her very much. This girl is also quite tactful. She hangs out in the market every day and has a pretty good relationship with people.
Every time I go to someone else's house, I can always harvest their vegetables and fruits.
When someone praises her, Yunyan will say, "In fact, this is not just my credit. The leaders of the base are working diligently. It is because of their orders that I can show my talent."
Some leaders appreciate her behavior, and naturally, some leaders think she is just flattering them. However, the beneficiaries are these leaders, and they can't just eat with the bowl in their hands and curse when they put it down.
A month passed quickly, and Yunyan had accumulated popularity and reputation. Naturally, some people did not recognize her.
Admit it or not, this day is coming.
On the last day, Chief Jiang notified all leaders to hold a meeting with Yunyan.
Everyone knew that this was a discussion about the expansion of the base and whether Yunyan should be in charge.
Yunyan knew in her heart that she had done everything she should do, so there was nothing to worry about.
In the conference room, some people expressed their willingness to give the young people a chance, while others felt that Yunyan was still a young girl and how could she accomplish such a thing, and that she should just be an assistant.
There is also a small number of people who are strongly opposed to the expansion of the base because it will harm their interests.
Yunyan looked at the leaders drooling in the conference room and sat back a little.
In such a short time, it is impossible for everyone to stand on her side, but judging from the current situation, it will not do her any harm.
Chief Jiang saw her hiding in the corner pretending to be a coward, so he kindly called out Yunyan's name.
"Comrade Lu, everyone is discussing this matter. As a party involved, please share your opinion!"
Yunyan knew that Chief Jiang was giving her a chance to show herself.
She did not hesitate and cleared her throat before speaking, "First of all, I want to thank you all for giving me, a young man, a chance. Since entering the base, I have seen with my own eyes that our base is well-organized and everyone is working together in the same direction. This is entirely due to the management of the leaders. Leader Zhang is usually a low-key person, but he is very good at managing people with special abilities... Leader Li..."
Yunyan listed the excellent work styles of the leaders she had observed during this period and praised them without hesitation. She did not exaggerate too much. The overall work style of this base was indeed very good, otherwise she would not have stayed.
Everyone was listening to Yunyan's speech. She was praising them in person. No one would give Yunyan the cold shoulder even if they disliked her. What's more, her praise was so on point. This girl was not an ordinary person as she understood them so well.
“I know that I have just arrived and I want to expand the base in a big way. The leaders will inevitably have doubts in their hearts, but this just shows that the leaders attach great importance to the base. This is your prudence.
But I still shamelessly want to expand the base. After this period of time, the leaders have also seen my strength. I hope they can give me a chance. If I fail, I will take the responsibility myself.
What I want is not the credit for expanding the base, but I hope it can be stronger and accommodate more people, which I think is what the leaders want as well.”
After Yunyan's moving and eloquent narration, the leaders who supported him became even more supportive, and the neutrals were also shaken.
Finally, Yunyan also dropped a bomb.
"When I came to the base, I saved two professors. They are well-known professors in City C and are also well-known internationally. Yesterday I received good news that they have made great progress in the research of zombie vaccines. I think the revival of our human civilization will come soon!"
After that, Yunyan asked the two professors to demonstrate their experimental results.
The leaders couldn't understand the experimental data, but there was an example. A mutant who had been injured while fighting zombies outside did not turn into a zombie after receiving the zombie vaccine.
The leaders know that this cannot be faked and lies can be easily exposed.
They also heard the hidden meaning in Yunyan's words. These two professors were saved by Yunyan, and judging from their expressions, they would only listen to their savior. If the leaders did not agree to Yunyan's expansion of the base, Yunyan would not hesitate to take the professors and the experimental results to other bases.
No one is willing to hand over such an achievement to outsiders, this will go down in history.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Chief Jiang spoke up, "The meeting has been going on for so long, so let's all vote. For the sake of fairness, let's vote by raising our hands. Comrades who agree that Lu Yunyan will be the person in charge of the expansion base, please raise your hands."
This time, there were no major setbacks and everyone agreed.
Seeing this, Yunyan stood up and bowed.
"Thank you for your trust, leaders. I, Lu Yunyan, will do my best."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chief Jiang took the lead in applauding, and everyone applauded and said some words of encouragement to Yunyan.
At this moment, they also understood that after the base was expanded, Comrade Lu's voice would become more and more powerful, and he would most likely become the new elite of the base.
I have to sigh, the young are really to be feared!
Such people can do well anywhere. Instead of helping others, it is better for them to stay in their own base. Good things should be kept in the family.
Yunyan breathed a sigh of relief. This step was finally taken. Fortunately, she was smart and brought the two professors with her.
Professor Xu and Professor Su were very happy to help Yunyan. After Yunyan rescued them, they got along easily and happily along the way. They looked at Yunyan as if she were their own child.
What's more, they no longer have any children.
With such outstanding juniors, they should give their full support.
