Buying People's Hearts

At this moment.

Li Chen happened to arrive at the residential area on the 7th floor.

The manager, leading a team of Android warriors, was already waiting there.

This setup naturally attracted a crowd.

"Holy crap, who is this guy? He's actually leading so many warriors?"

"Haven't you seen the forum? This is the Commander of the Star-Level Shelter, Mr. Li."

"Mr. Li looks like he's only seventeen or eighteen, a high school student?"

"I don't care! Even if he's a high school student, I'm okay with it! I want to have his babies!"

"I don't mind sensible sisters joining me to serve Mr. Li. Whether he's the Commander or not isn't important, the main thing is I like younger guys."

"Honestly, Mr. Li's looks already beat those young idols from before the apocalypse. I wonder who will be so lucky..."

The crowd, who were just about to eat and rest, gathered together, chattering away.

Most people had only seen Li Chen's photo on the forum.

Seeing him in person for the first time, everyone felt shocked!

Li Chen exuded a chilling aura.

When Li Chen wasn't smiling, his gaze made people's hair stand on end.

Inside the Star-Level Shelter, there were many young women who were unmarried and had no children.

Looking at Li Chen at this moment, they felt their hearts flutter.

They kept casting shy and timid glances at Li Chen.

"C-Commander, hello."

"Mr. Li!"

As Li Chen walked by, everyone, no matter what they were doing, would stand up and greet him.

Their hearts were filled with gratitude for this young man!

"Haha, hello."

"Please sit down, no need to be so polite."

Li Chen nodded slightly.

Then, he turned his head, smiling faintly.

"Everyone has been in the Star-Level Shelter for a while now."

"If you have any opinions on life and work, feel free to bring them up so we can improve."

"When I'm not here, you can give suggestions to the manager. That way, our Star-Level Shelter can get better and better."

Li Chen's words left everyone pleasantly surprised.

Many people waved their hands repeatedly.

"Not at all, the Star-Level Shelter is already great! I have no complaints whatsoever."

"If Mr. Li hadn't been willing to take us in, I might be in a zombie's belly right now!"

"In the Star-Level Shelter, I've found my self-worth. If it weren't for Mr. Li, I might have drifted through life aimlessly!"

The residents of the shelter spoke sincerely.

There was no flattery involved.

After all, the system of the Star-Level Shelter was roughly outlined by Li Chen and the details were perfected by Noah.

So many aspects were very humane!

In the Star-Level Shelter, besides being well-fed and clothed, the work intensity was even lower than before the apocalypse.

Everyone did work they were good at and enjoyed.

Many residents had thought about it.

If one day, the apocalypse ended.

They would still want to shamelessly stay here.

"It's good that everyone likes the Star-Level Shelter."

"If you have any problems in the future, you can report them to the management team at any time. The Star-Level Shelter is definitely not a place where one person calls all the shots."

"The fact that you were able to apply and be accepted means you are all talented individuals. In the future, the Huaxia Civilization, and even human civilization, will need everyone to work together to pass it on."

Li Chen spoke calmly and unhurriedly.

Like a spring breeze, his words brushed over everyone's hearts.

Many who had been somewhat restless miraculously quieted down after hearing these words.

"Go and inform the kitchen to add a portion of chicken soup for everyone today."

"Also, prepare my dinner."

Li Chen said lightly.

The manager immediately took the order and left.

Many people cheered!

Although the food in the Star-Level Shelter was cheap, it still required points to exchange for.

Many people, in order to save money, had ordered the most basic simple meals.

These did not include soup!

As soon as Li Chen arrived, he arranged chicken soup for everyone, and everyone happily jumped up.

Some people saw that Li Chen was trying to win people over with these actions.

But knowing it in their hearts was one thing.

They still appreciated it greatly!

To be closer to the residents, Li Chen also requested a simple meal for dinner.

A plain portion of rice, a plate of green vegetables, and a plate of braised pork ribs.

This instantly brought Li Chen closer to everyone.

Because Li Chen didn't put on airs.

No matter who spoke to him, Li Chen would listen carefully.

Soon, the residents of the shelter became close to Li Chen.

"Mr. Li, to be honest. Although our lives are better than outside now, the points we earn are too few."

"That's right, the points we earn now are only enough for daily food and lodging. If someone gets a minor illness, they can't afford it!"

"Hehehe, actually, if I had the chance, I'd also like to experience living in a single room and eat something good. But the little I earn every day is only enough for my family to eat, how could I dare to spend it carelessly."

"I wonder if there are other ways to earn points besides working? My wife doesn't have any skills and stays in the room all day, sigh, the pressure is immense."

Following these people's words.

Only then did Li Chen understand what they meant.

Indeed.

There were still not enough job positions in the shelter now.

There was a total population of 110,000, but only 30,000 technical positions.

The remaining 80,000 people couldn't all be arranged in service positions, could they?

Excluding the elderly and children, many people had joined the shelter through affiliated quotas.

They all had one characteristic: they didn't have any skills.

Naturally, they could only stay in their rooms all day.

This was a huge waste!

Li Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I will solve this problem."

"Next, a Cooked Food Processing Plant will be established. Those who want to participate can go directly there to sign up."

"The Mission Hall will also gradually open, and many missions will be released then."

"At the same time, some people will be recruited to join the Resident Combat Team. They can go out to hunt zombies and exchange Crystal Cores for points."

Li Chen's words excited everyone.

They felt like life was becoming more hopeful!

Within the shelter, a considerable number of people had families to support.

Either wives and children, or elderly parents.

If there were more ways to earn points, the pressure would be much less.

"I wonder what the requirements are for the Cooked Food Processing Plant? My wife is very diligent, I wonder if she can get in?"

"Resident Combat Team? Wow, that sounds amazing. I wonder if I'm qualified to join."

"What kind of missions will be in the Mission Hall? Mr. Li, would it be convenient to reveal a little?"

Facing these questions, Li Chen patiently answered, "First, about the factory. The Cooked Food Processing Plant is currently hiring 3,000 people. Later, factories for cosmetics, daily necessities, and clothing will also be opened."

"Seniors and women will have priority!"

Hearing that the Cooked Food Processing Plant was only hiring 3,000 people, everyone was a little disappointed.

But it was good that more factories would be opened in the future.

Then everyone would have a job.

The most excited were the seniors and women.
