Chapter 532: Chapter 227: Puppet Threads, Another Rune Acquired!_3

The leaders of the other three major camps probably don’t get to enjoy such good meals. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Liang Yuan was genuinely hungry; he had been fighting all day and had expended a lot of energy.

After eating several bowls, he finally let out a breath and slowed his pace, starting to chat with the three women.

"So, from now on, this mining area will belong to you, Brother Liang?" Song Wen asked excitedly.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Pretty much. However, extracting the Superpower Stones is quite troublesome and will require a lot of manpower. I’ve kept those mine slaves back. Tomorrow I’ll go over there again, bring some supplies, and I might have to stay a night."

"By the way, is the list and points conversion for exchanging supplies ready?"

"I need to bring it over and implement it over at the mining area first."

Song Wen and Dong Yan didn’t understand these matters. One of them was a host, and the other a student, so naturally, they weren’t familiar with it.

But Yang Mei knew a little. She studied accounting in college, and her aunt ran a factory. Before she was married, she worked as an accountant in her aunt’s factory, so she understood these things.

Yang Mei said, "I’ve made a report, and also roughly calculated the points conversion."

"But the specifics still need to consider the quantity of supplies and the resource situation in Yangshan before setting the exchange rates."

Liang Yuan understood that catching mutant fish was easy here in Yangshan; there were plenty in the floodwaters down the mountain.

However, red meat was hard to get. After all, the mutant beasts in the mountains were fierce. Without being a Superpower User, it was almost impossible to hunt them.

This meant that the price of red meat from mutant beasts wouldn’t be low.

"All non-renewable resources are precious."

"Especially modern resources like shoes, clothes, beds, cabinets, and electronic products, essential living items."

"As for food, rice, flour, oil grains are equally precious. But since this affects everyone’s hope of survival, the price can’t be set too high nor too low. After all, without finding a plant to replace rice and flour for carbohydrates, each grain consumed means one less grain."

Yang Mei was knowledgeable about these things.

Liang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Look around, see if there are any professionals in accounting among the survivors. Let them share some of your workload."

Yang Mei nodded and said, "I have someone in mind."

"Who?"

"Do you remember Lu Yanran?"

Liang Yuan recalled instantly. She was Lu Dayou’s daughter, a deaf-mute girl.

Thinking about Lu Dayou, Liang Yuan sighed inwardly.

Back on Turtle Island, he had saved Lu Dayou, advising him to leave quickly.

But Lu Dayou was determined to awaken his superpower, searching for the Superpower Fruit to take care of his deaf-mute daughter.

Later, as the island fell silent, Lu Dayou didn’t make it back alive.

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but ask, "What is Lu Yanran doing now? Is she having any issues with food and drink?"

Yang Mei replied, "Don’t worry, Lu Yanran is with Dong Yan now, in a medical team formed by Wang An and Tang Ying, responsible for treatment and such."

Liang Yuan looked at Dong Yan and asked, "Is she with you guys?"

Dong Yan hurriedly answered, "Yes, she can’t speak and can’t hear, but my superpower can create a Mind Link, which helps her a lot."

"I only recently found out that she attended a school for the deaf and actually studied accounting."

"Before the big flood, she said her biggest dream was to open a small shop with her parents, so she wouldn’t have to worry about finding a job or being discriminated against."

Saying this, Dong Yan’s eyes turned red, "She’s already so pitiful, yet there are people who discriminate against her. Those people are really annoying."

Song Wen patted her hand and said, "There are all kinds of people in this world. Fortunately, she met you."

Dong Yan nodded, feeling a bit better.

Liang Yuan asked, "No one’s bullying her in the shelter, right?"

"No, I’m watching her, and Uncle Wang An and Sister Tang Ying are taking care of her too."

Liang Yuan nodded, sighed, "Her father begged me on the island, if he couldn’t come back alive, to look out for his daughter."

"I almost forgot about this, thankfully there’s you all."

Yang Mei comforted him, "It’s not your fault. Since we climbed the mountain, it’s been one thing after another. You’re very busy."

Liang Yuan smiled, "Let’s not talk about that. Since you said she’s suitable, let her follow you and learn."

Yang Mei nodded, then stood up with a smile, "I’ll clean the dishes; you guys keep talking. Song Wen, Dong Yan, don’t go back tonight. Sleep here."

Song Wen and Dong Yan quickly waved their hands, Song Wen’s cheeks turned red thinking about what happened by the waterfall during the day, "No need, really. Sister Mei, we’ll head back now."

Not waiting for Yang Mei to say more, she hurriedly got up and ran.

Dong Yan also followed quickly, but she wasn’t as abrupt, instead, giving Liang Yuan a somewhat disappointed look.

It seemed if Liang Yuan had insisted, she might have stayed.

Of course, Liang Yuan didn’t insist, especially in front of Yang Mei. Their old marital bond couldn’t be broken.

Yang Mei complained, "Why didn’t you say anything?"

Liang Yuan laughed, "What should I say?"

"Invite them to stay."

"No, tonight I want us to have some alone time."

Yang Mei’s face instantly turned red and she waved her hand, "No, I’m on my period."

Liang Yuan was stunned. No wonder she was trying very hard to keep Song Wen here, it’s just an attempt to draw others down with her.

Liang Yuan was helpless, "No problem, I’m not an animal, not doing that every day."

"You’re like an ox, full of energy." Yang Mei laughed softly.

She cleaned the dishes, bending down because she couldn’t see them otherwise.

Liang Yuan joked, "If you weren’t on your period, you’d see how hard I’d make things for you!"

Yang Mei laughed playfully, "If you have the ability, go bother Song Wen tonight."

Liang Yuan laughed heartily and helped her clean up.

After washing up, they headed to the room to rest.

Yang Mei’s period wasn’t a lie, so despite Liang Yuan’s strong urges, he couldn’t resolve them.
