Volume 3 Chapter 82 Gathering

After killing the entire Qian family, Shao Qing sent out the news asking the leaders of the largest bases to chat.

While wanting to chat, she did a two-pronged approach and sent someone out to take care of the Qian family in Jing Du. Shao Qing had released the message that as long as there are people who are alive in the family, they should be taken care of.

Don’t blame her for her cruel methods. When the Qian family started to deal with Jiangcheng, they should have thought about this day. No matter what the result was, they chose it themselves, no one forced them to choose this.

So falling to this point, they did not deserve to be pitied at all. The only pitiful people were probably the old and the weak, women, and children of the Qian family. Pity them who believed in the wrong person and pity them for having the surname Qian.

That’s it.

There were two sentences in the invitation letter sent by Shao Qing. One sentence was to invite them to gather at Hope Survivor Base. The second sentence was explaining the reason for the gathering: she had found the reason why the land was polluted.

Why not gather in Jiangcheng? This was because Shao Qing knew that Jiangcheng was her base camp. There were definitely not many base leaders who dared to bring a few people over.

In order to give them peace of mind, the best place to meet was Hope Survivor Base.

Hope survivor base will cooperate with them. Tang Tiande is also the mini base chief and works for Shao Qing, so he was credible.

When Jiangcheng was under siege, Hope survivor base had also delivered supplies and some manpower. Shao Qing was unwilling to drag them down and sent the people back.

After all, it was not easy for Hope survivor base to establish a foothold in this country. So, it would be a bit too much to get involved in this matter of theirs.

Moreover, their relationship was not as close as Shao Qing and the Tan family or the Qin family. They didn’t need to take this step at all. Them being willing to send people to help and bring supplies was already demonstrating they were worth having a friendship with.

When the several base leaders first received the news, they were very hesitant. If they went, they were worried about conspiracy. However, they were scared of the consequences if they didn’t go. They knew that the several bases that united to attack Jiangcheng were wiped out. The Qian family who was in charge was the most miserable. It was fine for a living person to fail to get off the battlefield safely, but in two days their whole family was finished off.

The people from Jiangcheng came to Jing Du in an open manner and exterminated the Qian family. Their actions were quick and straightforward. They didn’t even have a chance to fight back.

In their eyes, Shao Qing was simply a lunatic, a powerful lunatic, someone most people should not provoke.

After careful consideration, they decided that they had to go. There were three reasons to go. First, Shao Qing had set the meeting place in Hope survivor base instead of Jiangcheng, this already revealed her sincerity.

The second point was that if they didn’t go, they were afraid that Shao Qing would suddenly go mad. She could bring tens of thousands of people under her hands in addition to her zombies to flatten their base. This kind of thing was something this lunatic would absolutely do.

Thirdly, what Shao Qing revealed to them was indeed what they really wanted to know. If Shao Qing really had a way to improve the current situation or if she knew why the land was polluted, then they must go.

So after thinking about it, all the base leaders gritted their teeth and replied to the letter saying that they would meet at Hope survivor base on time.

After the letter business was done, Shao Qing stopped caring about it. Whether they came or not was their business. Anyways, she had already made the matter very clear. There was nothing that could be done if they didn’t come.

Among the people who came this time, there were two acquaintances: one was Meng Shen and the other was Yan Pingsheng. Both of them had met Shao Qing not long after the end of the world. However, many things happened, so Shao Qing basically had no time and no chance to go back and visit them, thus they gradually became estranged.

It was just a little bit. When they met again, although it was a little slow, they quickly recovered to how they were previously.

These two people didn’t even bring a single guard and were the fastest. It wasn’t long since Shao Qing’s message was sent, and the two of them have already arrived. It was as if the moment they received the news, they just packed up and rushed over.

Shao Qing never liked to say thankful words to people, but seeing this supportive attitude, she understood it very clearly. She immediately asked people to arrange their accommodation, then had a meal together.

Yan Pingsheng was the same, but Meng Shen seemed to be more silent.

The group got together and chatted briefly without saying much.

After almost four or five days, everyone arrived. Shao Qing and the host Tang Yaozu were responsible for all the itineraries. To put it bluntly, it was simply walking around the base, eating a meal, then sitting together.

Shao Qing was a direct person. She said straightforwardly: “A few days ago, I don’t know who it was but they spread some news. Then I found someone coming over and trying to deal with us in Jiangcheng. Everyone has seen the result of the incident. We were also quite lucky, just two days ago, the people under my hand discovered a problem, that is, all the land is polluted and the water source is polluted. This is not because the environment is turning in the wrong direction.”

After raising everyone’s curiosity, she didn’t keep them in suspense, she just said, “This is a conspiracy, not just against our Jiangcheng, but also against all bases. I discovered that the land and water sources are polluted because someone poisoned the water source.”

As soon as her words came out, it was like a pebble causing thousands of waves. Everyone was confused, how could it be poisoned? What kind of poison can pollute 99% of the country’s bases?

Several base chiefs began to whisper in private.

Shao Qing patted the table: “Please stay quiet. Listen to me. In addition, I also found that Yan river was the source of the poison. Yan River and the tributaries of Yan river are poisoned, but the waters near Jiangcheng were safe. The question that arises now is that since the poisoner has the ability to spread it across the country, why didn’t they poison Jiangcheng as well? Let’s think about the Qian family who worked against Jiangcheng some time ago. The reason was self-evident, right?”

Someone immediately said boldly: “Who knows if it wasn’t Jiangcheng? After poisoning the whole country, only Jiangcheng was not poisoned and was the one who found out what happened. Maybe you guys are making bogus accusations.”

Shao Qing sneered: “If I have that kind of poisonous mind, I will first make your b**ch mouth mute. I feel sick just listening to you.”

The man turned blue with anger, he stood up as he slapped the table. In the end, he was held down by the people around him. Although his guess was indeed possible, it was too vile to bring up. It was normal for people to slap their faces. You can’t blame others for having a bad temper.

After Shao Qing finished cursing, she sat down and said with a cold face: “If you have any doubts, you can all say it. I am a democratic person. You can say what you want.”

No one spoke. Is she democratic?

It really doesn’t look like it…

Now that they have something to ask of her, they can’t offend her anyway.

“If there is no comment, I will continue. After my people discovered that the toxin is in the water, they did a detailed investigation. The reason why I called everyone to come over was to tell everyone about this. Then every family must do their best to find the source of the toxin, to understand the matter, and to solve it. This way everyone is happy. To say it honestly, the toxins don’t affect our Jiangcheng, we can leave it alone. But I will take care of this, because I don’t want you to trouble me in the future. It’s okay if you have an opinion on me, just hold it back. If you want to lose your temper, don’t do it in front of me, or if you die, don’t blame me.”

“I’m a person who says these kinds of hateful words. If you want to listen, stay, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t. Anyway, this is my homebase.”

The base leaders and higher ups:…

“If you have any opinions, go ahead and speak your mind. After all, soon we are going to work together.” Shao Qing lazily said: “Don’t try to stab me in the back when we are cooperating. If you didn’t know that I had a bad temper, you should know now. I will not be polite to those who trip or pull my hind legs at that time.”

Someone immediately said, “If we have a few people from each family, wouldn’t it be like the previous Qian family with too many leaders? Will we have to speak up and choose one to lead everyone? This matter must be cleared up, otherwise everyone will feel uneasy.”

Shao Qing was rather impatient. The biggest problem with this group of people is this. What they are focused on in their hearts is always power. Everything else has to go take a back seat.

“I didn’t say that I’m going to work with you to do this. I mean, every house and every household will have some staff to investigate. It doesn’t matter if they will check things out separately or if they will check things together. Anyways, it’s not a fight. Isn’t it annoying to need a boss to just check something?” Shao Qing said coldly: “If you need to choose a boss, it will require several days of talking. When the time comes, the person who did all this will have destroyed all the evidence!”

The man blushed a bit and said a few words, then didn’t say anything more.

“If you don’t have anything to ask, then the matter is settled. We will send out some people and organize several teams to investigate separately. Find out the source, the problem, solve it then we can all go our own ways.”

Yan Pingsheng was the first to express his support: “I think what City Lord Shao said is right. Don’t waste time guessing who the person who poisoned the source is. It’s still not too late to search for that after we solve the problem. After all, our biggest problem now is that the land is polluted and food cannot be produced. This problem must be solved, the rest is not a priority right now.”

One after another agreed. Although they all disliked Shao Qing, they all had to admit, this time it was a blessing having Shao Qing.
