Just a slight show of power had already established his authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rescue work proceeded quickly. The mining area had four mines in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the mines had completely collapsed. Even after digging dozens of meters deep, it was all just rocks, and no one responded to the calls from inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chances were high that everyone inside had died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, from the other two mines, more than fifty people were rescued one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this, the original shelter of over two hundred people now had less than one hundred left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among those rescued from the two mines, there were two people who seemed to be leaders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was named Liao Tao, and the other was named Meng Guangli.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both were in their thirties, solidly muscular.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon seeing Liang Yuan, they both respectfully called him ’Mr. Liang.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan nodded and addressed everyone, \"What are your plans next?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone hesitated, looked at each other, and someone asked, \"Mr. Liang, does your shelter still need people?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Liang, we heard there are three other shelters on the mountain. Are you familiar with them? If we go there, will they accept us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan didn’t answer the first person’s question but responded to the second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Every shelter has limited resources. They might open their doors if you’re a Superpower User, but if you’re a burden, then sorry, no shelter would want you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone fell silent immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They understood this logic well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Going to other shelters now might mean being bullied and ending up at the bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They felt a surge of despair at this thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Niu Daming looked at Liang Yuan and suddenly said, \"Mr. Liang, although we are not Superpower Users, we’re strong and good at work. Could you... could you take us in?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he spoke, the others reacted as well and started pleading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Liang, please have mercy and take us in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Liang, I’m capable of working, I can endure any hardship. Please take me in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Liang, I’m begging you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people knelt down one after another, repeatedly kowtowing and pleading to Liang Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan frowned but felt he had prepared enough in his heart, and spoke slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, everyone, get up and listen to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am different from Tian Wei. If you follow me, you must follow my rules.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But my shelter is limited in space and resources; I can’t accommodate all of you at once.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he said this, everyone felt a surge of despair, their eyes turned red, and the more fragile ones almost started crying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan spoke again, \"But I do have a suggestion that you might listen to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Niu Daming, Liao Tao, and Meng Guangli, the leaders, quickly raised their heads and looked at Liang Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Liang, do you have a good suggestion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Liang, just tell us, we’ll follow your lead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Liang, please speak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan smiled at the three and said, \"My shelter does not have enough space to accommodate you. This mining area was taken by me, and I need people to stay here later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But judging from your situation, going to other shelters might be problematic. Why not stay here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The caves here are already available, originally for the Superpower Users, now they can be yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they heard this, everyone showed expressions of surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Liang Yuan’s tone changed, \"But—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t let you live here for free. You need to pay me while staying here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was stunned. Niu Daming quickly asked, \"Mr. Liang, what kind of fee? We don’t have much food.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan laughed, \"Not food. Aren’t there Superpower Stones here? You can mine them and give them to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was shocked, and Meng Guangli couldn’t help but ask, \"Doesn’t that mean we’re becoming mine slaves again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan laughed and shook his head, \"It’s different. You live here, and I provide you with the place. Later, if you need food, I can supply it. If you encounter danger, I’ll send Superpower Users to help you solve it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, and I might dispatch a team of Superpower Users to maintain security and stability.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mining is voluntary; I won’t force anyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can eat wild vegetables, catch mutant beasts, mutant fish, it’s all up to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if you rent my place, you have to pay rent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you need other food, you have to exchange it from me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And if someday you don’t want to live here anymore, you can leave anytime. I won’t force you to stay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you understand what I mean?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he said this, everyone felt relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, their freedom was not restricted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could come and go as they please, just paying the rent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was reasonable since this mining area was taken by Mr. Liang from Tian Wei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone acknowledged this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Niu Daming, Liao Tao, and Meng Guangli realized the key point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Niu Daming immediately asked, \"Mr. Liang, does this mean if we live here, we have the right to mine Superpower Stones?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the Superpower Stones we extract will be ours? We can use them to exchange for supplies from you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan shook his head, \"This mining area belongs to me. The Superpower Stones you mine can’t be considered yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",912,"2026-05-29T17:51:52.190Z","2026-06-01T04:29:53.098Z",1,"novelbin.me","2cb80d6d6ec3aabd66a0e1a0451d172db00d413765d1e9d2477617efa3a9229f","apocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-chapter-520","apocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-chapter-518",1292,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-cover.jpg"]
