Unfortunately for Xiaoyun, it meant he was now having to be a father once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only positive news out of the whole thing was the fact that he no longer needed to wear protection with any of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could creampie each of them as much as he wanted, although he was starting to feel a little burnt out having to satisfy all nine of them every night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside of his personal life, the three-day deadline for the food-for-fuel deal was coming closer and closer to an end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun had been going to the storage unit every few hours. Just when his ability was no longer giving him a headache from using it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t even bother with hiding his ability. No longer using a truck as he just created them straight inside the storage unit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yueyue was forced to clean up after him, wiping all the footage from the camera before taking the remote control to play a clip of no one inside when Xiaoyun entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great to see you again, Mr.Zhang,\" Xiaoyun murmured, shaking his hand as the two of them stood in Foshan’s airport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great to see you too, Mr.Chen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two of them separated, everyone could see the attitude of Zhangfei changing completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His arrogance was replaced by a humble, respectable look towards Xiaoyun as if his past three-day experience had changed him as a person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You soldiers should have gotten the food loaded into your plane, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’re currently loading it in... Mr.Chen, do you have a little time to renegotiate the deal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Renegotiate? Are you not happy with the current deal?\" Xiaoyun curiously asked, looking a little surprised by how much Zhangfei had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, sir. I mean, we are more than happy with the deal. But my commander back in the base had told me the deal is unfair for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I personally agreed with it too. So we want to adjust the deal so that you guys no longer have to pay for the pipe check fees.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer shocked Xiaoyun a little, more so for Houqin, who couldn’t believe Zhangfei’s side was willingly rejecting the food that was already in their palms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Zhangfei nodding his head with his bodyguard all standing in silence behind him, Xiaoyun thought about it for a second before shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t see the need for negotiation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhangfei, all of the bodyguards, and even Houqin were caught off guard by Xiaoyun’s answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A deal is a deal. It would feel wrong for me to make you guys work for free when the deal specifically stated that we would be the ones paying for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"B-But——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can keep the 400 tonnes of food as a token of friendship... No need to push back any further, we’re all in this together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Xiaoyun’s selflessness, Zhangfei suddenly bowed down in gratitude as his bodyguards all looked a little shocked by it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you so much!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem... Looks like your soldiers are coming over. Can one of you open the door for them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a few of Zhangfei’s oldiers walked towards the terminal exit, one of Xiaoyun’s soldiers quickly headed over there to open the door for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Colonel Zhangfei! We finished loading the 100 tonnes as you had asked.\" One of the soldiers said out loud as he saluted towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go load in the rest... We’ll remember this, Governor Chen. If you ever have any trouble, just give us a call.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Xiaoyun could say anything, Zhangfei threw a brick phone over to him, leaving the airport with the rest of his soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander, why did you reject their adjustment?\" Houqin questioned, unable to understand why Xiaoyun didn’t accept the offer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because we’re all in this together... We all have a common enemy. I don’t see the need to be so stingy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the cargo plane resumed loading in the distance, Houqin couldn’t help but feel a little insulted by his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"B-But that’s 400 tonnes of food.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can always make more... Friendship is hard to come by in this dog-eat-dog apocalypse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun murmured as he looked towards the brick phone, which had a long antenna on the top right corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That could have fed the army for half a month...\" Houqin grumpily murmured as she still refused to value the two things as the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll go make up the difference myself. You don’t have to worry about it.\" Xiaoyun reassured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Still... Whatever. You’re the leader. Not me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Houqin murmured to herself, the cargo plane took off into the sky as all of the nearby soldiers watched it in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in Yuqi’s office...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome back... How’s the deal with Zhangfei?’ Yuqi curiously asked as Xiaoyun took a seat right next to her desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Went pretty smoothly. We should be able to see the fuel coming in by next month... What are you working on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just some miscellaneous work. You don’t have to worry about it... Hey Xiaoyun, have you talked to your friends recently?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My friends?\" Xiaoyun asked in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chengyi and Pinli. Have they called you or sent you any text messages, or just anything?\" Yuqi classified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. Why, you ask?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just wondering. That’s all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t send a text to them. They don’t have the same cell towers connected to their provinces.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess you’re right. I didn’t think about that... Just ignore what I just asked.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi shifted her attention back to her work, Xiaoyun’s mind was still too intrigued by why she asked this out of the blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did they do something stupid up north again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not that... I was just curious. That’s all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her unwilling to budge, Xiaoyun’s curiosity had only gotten worse. He just wants to figure out the bottom of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, Yuqi, I’m not stupid. Just tell me why you ask that... Is it something to do with migration again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it’s nothing like that... Do you really want to know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun quickly nodded his head, waiting patiently as she wrote a few things on her work before turning around to look back at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your friends just sent their mom and sisters over here in Guangzhou. That’s why I’m wondering if they told you about this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun’s mind couldn’t connect any of the words, as they all made no sense when combined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are currently living in one of the temporary apartments in Guangzhou. You can go talk to them yourself if you really want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun thought about it for a second before shaking his head, rejecting the idea of a visit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They probably don’t want me to know about it... I’m just going to leave them alone.\" Xiaoyun answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay then.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi turned back to her work, Xiaoyun’s mind still couldn’t understand why his friends would have their family move from Changsha to Guangzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi, what do you think about why they moved over here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know... Maybe they just find Guangzhou to be a better place to live compared to Hunan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I guess...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun didn’t bother her work any further as he sat there in silence, thinking about the various possible explanations for the move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you this, Xiaoyun. Li Fa wanted to meet with you later in the evening.\" Yuqi murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Fa? What does he want to meet me for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wouldn’t know. But probably something to do with laws... He’s going to come over in like a few hours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun’s attention shifted towards thinking about what Li Fa wanted to talk about, his eyes suddenly got a little curious about what Yuqi was working on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi, what are you writing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just some future stuff... I probably won’t even put it into effect or anything.\" Yuqi murmured as she kept on writing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? Let me have a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly scooched his chair closer, moving all the way right next to her as he looked over to the paper on her desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a new re-arrangement plan, a redistricting effort to fully separate each of the city and town into two different entities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, the mayor of a city would be equal to the mayor of a small town, regardless of their administrative district on the map before the outbreak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s the point of this?\" Xiaoyun curiously asked, not really finding the need to employ two separate mayors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was thinking how the population had been slowly spread out more and more, since there aren’t always going to be enough jobs in the city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuqi paused for a second as she put down her pen onto the desk, then continued speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s just say you live in a small village or a town, hundreds of miles or so away from the city center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You and your fellow villagers had an idea to pool all your labor resources together to cut down some trees to make room for farmland.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1507,"2026-06-10T06:59:53.682Z",1,"novelbin.me","5363f488282a185fd0f22efb8cc02b4bba7226ed3e98d04e192a6a6f6063fac7","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-618","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-663",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
