I Build a Floating City in the Apocalypse – Chapter 60

Chapter 60

“So, how about it? Are you tempted?”

Fang Bai turned his head to look at Wang Kai beside him. Wang Kai had been listening the whole time without leaving, and now, judging by his expression, he was clearly moved.

As the saying goes, you don’t know the value of firewood until you’re the head of the household. After becoming the leader, Wang Kai realized the difficulties of these matters.

Food, clothing, shelter, transportation – these were the basic conditions for survival. Just keeping these more than one hundred people alive had already exhausted him.

And the occasional conflicts and disputes that arose between these more than one hundred people gave him a huge headache.

For example, coordinating upgrades, allocating equipment, deciding the order of rescuing family members – these interests involving life and death were too difficult to coordinate, and no one would give an inch.

In addition, Wang Kai also needed to take care of his own strength, after all, the initial core of gathering these people was his own strength.

It was not enough to manage well; he also had to have enough strength to deter and attract his subordinates.

Already in a difficult stage, now hearing the beautiful picture described by Fang Bai, this…

This was the initial establishment of a behemoth!

So, should he submit to Fang Bai? Bow down and become a subject from now on?

Even at this point, Wang Kai was still a little hesitant. After all, he wasn’t at the end of his rope yet. Seeing this, Fang Bai smiled and said,

“If you’re tempted, why not give it a try? It’s just a job, why hesitate for so long?

Do you want to come to work? The kind without a salary.”

Wang Kai’s heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he suddenly came to his senses.

“That’s right, it’s just finding a job and going to work. What’s there to struggle with for so long?

If it doesn’t work out, can’t I just fire Fang Bai? Let’s try it!”

After Wang Kai figured this out, he instantly made a decision and nodded.

“Alright, let’s try it. Just don’t fire me later.

By the way, how much is the salary?”

“One Copper Coin.”

Wang Kai laughed when he heard this.

“Deal.”

Fang Bai smiled as he looked at Bai Qing and Wang Kai.

“Then Bai Qing, you’ll be in charge of construction, logistics, and management. Wang Kai, you’ll be in charge of combat, responsible for collecting resources, training troops, and rescuing survivors.”

Fang Bai looked at the former members of the Brotherhood and then at the people behind Wang Kai. After pondering for a moment, he said,

“Now our Novice Village has a total of more than four hundred people, less than five hundred.

But basically, they are all combatants, so there are not enough construction personnel.

Bai Qing, you’re in charge. Go and count the number of people willing to join the Field Operations Team and be responsible for combat.

By the way, just like I said earlier, paint them a picture, stabilize their morale first, and then remove most of them from the Field Operations Team, leaving only the hundred strongest.

I think under the circumstances of restoring order and ensuring safety, they would be happy to withdraw from the Field Operations Team.”

“Okay, Boss. So you were painting us a picture just now?”

“Yeah, so are you buying it?”

Fang Bai said with a smile.

“I’m buying it.”

Bai Qing also smiled.

“Wang Kai, after he selects these hundred people, you’ll be responsible for their training and combat.

Among our more than four hundred people, there must be many who still have family members. Bai Qing, you’re responsible for counting them, and then plan the rescue routes according to distance, direction, danger level, and urgency.

Then Bai Qing will focus on construction at home, and Wang Kai will train troops while rescuing people.

No problem, right?”

“No problem!”

The two said in unison.

“Alright, then go ahead, get moving.”

As soon as Fang Bai finished speaking, Wang Kai directly led his people to the side of the former Brotherhood members. After everyone had gathered, Bai Qing walked in front of everyone, looked around, pondered for a moment, and then said,

“My name is Bai Qing. My current identity should be the General Manager of Stone City, Shen Shan Town, Number One Novice Village Co., Ltd., hereinafter referred to as Number One Novice Village.

Here, I’ll briefly explain a few points to give you a preliminary understanding of the future planning of Number One Novice Village and your career positioning.”

Fang Bai withdrew his gaze when he saw that Bai Qing had begun to paint the picture.

The impression he left on these people today was profound enough that there was no need to show his face again, nor was there any need to emphasize or control anything.

The most important thing for Fang Bai was to improve his strength!

As long as his strength was strong enough, all problems would naturally be solved.

As long as his strength was strong enough, what belonged to Fang Bai would not be able to escape.

Fang Bai looked back at the Job Change Sculpture.

Over there, groups of survivors were excitedly looking at the attributes of the Job Change Sculpture. Their heated discussions made the whole area chaotic, like a vegetable market.

And at this time, Fang Bai heard an interesting voice.

“Huh?! Why is there no Mage Job Change?!”

“Who said there was a Mage Job Change?”

“Could there be a game without a Mage class, without magic users?”

“This is the apocalypse, not a game. And in games, the Mage class can be easily changed, but in most novels and movies, Mages are extremely rare and noble professions. Mages either have extremely high requirements for talent, or are extremely difficult to change jobs to, or have extremely high requirements for financial resources.

Or they have extremely high requirements for all three at the same time.

Why do you think reality would be the same as a game?

Give it up, there’s no Mage Job Change here. Instead of pursuing a Mage that may or may not exist,

it’s better to honestly change jobs to Warrior or Shield Warrior.

If you have some talent, changing jobs to Archer can also be a very comfortable life.”

“But I’m already level seven!”

“So what if you’re level seven? Aren’t you about to change jobs?”

“I added all my points to Mental Power in order to change jobs to Mage!

Ah, heavens, why me, Li Jie!”

The man cried out in grief, and everyone fell silent.

“…”

“Wise, confirmed. Let’s disperse.”

“Disperse, disperse.”

Fang Bai couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this, but then he became slightly curious.

“Does this apocalypse have a Mage Job Change? If so, what would a Mage who changed jobs through the Attribute Panel be like?”

Fang Bai became curious.

“I wonder if others can learn my meditation method. If they can, wouldn’t that be equivalent to changing jobs to Mage?”

After thinking for a moment, Fang Bai dismissed the idea.

Fang Bai would definitely try it in the future, but definitely not now, and definitely not with strangers.

Fang Bai would definitely try it after he was strong enough in magic and his forces were strong enough. He would choose to teach this method to his trusted people and see if they could learn it.

Fang Bai looked back and saw that Bai Qing was still talking, but judging by the expressions of the crowd, it seemed to be quite effective.

“Bai Qing’s combat power isn’t strong, but he’s quite good at this,”

Fang Bai muttered, then called Wang Kai over.

“Wang Kai, if you see a generator when you go out, bring one back for me.”

“Okay, no problem.”

“Okay, then I’m going out. You don’t have to prepare my meal.

But you need to prepare a place for me to stay. I’ll be back tonight.”

“Okay.”

Fang Bai nodded, took his wooden bow and arrows, and turned to leave the Novice Village.

Fang Bai leaving the Novice Village looked exactly the same as it did two days ago, but the situation was completely different.

This time, Fang Bai’s roots had been left in the Novice Village!

Holding his wooden bow, Fang Bai strode towards Stone City.

Not far away, a figure quietly watched this scene, and not long after Fang Bai left, several people also left the Novice Village from the direction Fang Bai had left.
