130: Go out and find the corpse king

The next morning, right after breakfast, Meng Xian gathered all the key personnel of the Shelter.

The main problem the Shelter was facing now was the collection of materials.

The last Corpse King horde had caused too many casualties for the Materials Group, and no one was willing to sign up for new Materials Group members.

Although the benefits were good, this kind of life-threatening work made it difficult to attract new members.

The atmosphere in the conference room was heavy.

Meng Xian clapped the table, saying displeasedly, "Speak up, are you all mute? Enforcement Team, Security Team, see if you two teams can transfer some personnel to make up for the losses."

Director Han, the captain of the Enforcement Team, looked unwell.

The current situation was no longer suitable for going out to collect.

The strength of that Tungsten Corpse King was already equivalent to a top Third-class ability user.

Even Five-level Ability Users with mutated bodies, or Four-level Ability Users with object control abilities, could only flee in the face of a Corpse King of that level.

Director Han stood up and said, "The zombies have mutated too much now; going out is no different from suicide.

Although we have armored vehicles, heavy machine guns are basically useless against basic zombies of the Corpse King type.

I suggest that the Materials Group not be rebuilt temporarily, and wait until the Laboratory's drones are successful."

Meng Xian frowned and said, "There's no other choice now.

Currently, the materials for the greenhouse need to be collected outside.

If the Materials Group cannot be rebuilt, then all progress will be delayed.

We can't just leave everything to the boss, can we?"

Qiu Wuhui, who was standing by, said with a cold face, "Do you only care about progress?

The Materials Group suffered heavy losses precisely because you forced them out."

Meng Xian's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Qiu Wuhui, are you accusing me?

If you're willing to be the captain of this Materials Group, then do it.

If you're not willing, then step down; don't occupy the latrine without defecating."

"You..." Qiu Wuhui's eyes were full of anger, and he shot up to his feet.

"Team Leader Qiu, don't!" Sun Wentao, who was beside him, quickly pulled Qiu Wuhui, telling him not to be impulsive.

Qiu Wuhui suppressed his anger, "General Manager Meng, I know you have many Ability Users under you, and you look down on us old captains.

But it doesn't matter, I'll go resign to the boss now.

The Materials Group, I'll leave it for you all to play with."

After speaking, Qiu Wuhui stood up and was about to leave.

But at this moment, the conference room door opened, and Tian Ming rubbed his eyes and walked in.

Qiu Wuhui, who was originally furious, immediately lost his temper and turned around to obediently return to his seat.

The meeting room became quiet.

Tian Ming scanned the room, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "If I don't come to the meeting, can't you all discuss things properly?"

Everyone lowered their heads.

Indeed, there were too many aggressive projects in the Shelter at the moment, and everyone was made very nervous by Meng Xian.

Tian Ming walked to the first row of the conference table, slowly sat down, and said, "General Manager Meng, the original Materials Group will be separated from the Shelter Comprehensive Management Department and privately operated by Qiu Wuhui.

The Shelter will buy back the items they collect with points, and I will invest the initial startup capital.

The Comprehensive Management Department's Materials Group will be rebuilt through discussions between you and Ji Ruping.

How does that sound?"

Qiu Wuhui was stunned.

The boss was clearly protecting him.

Qiu Wuhui was touched.

Private operation meant autonomy, and he would no longer have to obey Meng Xian's assignments.

As soon as this was said, Meng Xian's face became somewhat unpleasant.

The boss was clearly protecting Qiu Wuhui.

Meng Xian was displeased but had no choice.

Meng Xian could only nod and say, "If everyone has no objections, then let's follow the boss's wishes."

Director Han said, "I agree with the boss's opinion.

The rebuilt Materials Group will be responsible for the urgently needed materials for the Shelter, and Qiu Wuhui's Materials Group will mainly collect ordinary materials."

Tian Ming stood up and said, "Since that's the case, let's proceed with this model.

Liu Chuan, don't be the captain of your transport team anymore; follow Qiu Wuhui.

I'll also give you Dr. Qiao and Iron Dude.

And I'll give you ten more vehicles, plus 200,000 startup points.

You can recruit people yourselves.

My requirement is to repay all debts within 3 months.

If you can't repay, you will be disbanded on the spot."

With that, Tian Ming didn't bother with more nonsense and left the conference room directly.

Everyone else was left looking at each other, and Meng Xian's face turned extremely bad.

He was annoyed but couldn't vent his anger.

The boss was the boss after all, and his word was law.

Meng Xian naturally knew Tian Ming's intention.

This act of stepping on him during the meeting was undoubtedly a reminder that the superior-subordinate relationship within the Shelter could not be so rigid.

After leaving the conference room, Tian Ming went directly to the Laboratory.

The Laboratory was much livelier now than before.

There were over 100 people.

With more people, effective division of labor could be carried out.

As long as detailed parameters were provided, Tian Ming could manufacture various alien parts.

There were also two large metal powder forging machines in the Laboratory, allowing for small-batch manufacturing of most industrial products.

These manufactured samples would then be replicated by Tian Ming and smoothly distributed.

The Laboratory was definitely a key area that Tian Ming strongly supported.

As long as the people there proposed a need, Tian Ming would try his best to meet it.

"Shen Yuan, come out for a moment!" Tian Ming stood at the entrance of the Laboratory and called out to Shen Yuan, who was busy.

"Coming!"

Shen Yuan happily walked out of the Laboratory and quickly came before Tian Ming: "What is it, boss?"

"Pack up, I'm taking you out to play."

Shen Yuan was stunned and said, "Why do you suddenly want to take me out?

I haven't finished my work yet!"

Tian Ming said lightly, "We're going out.

Bring the material request form, and we'll collect some things on the way back."

"Okay, okay, give me five minutes."

Shen Yuan was immediately overjoyed.

The boss cared about her!

Shen Yuan, of course, wouldn't refuse such a good opportunity.

She quickly returned to the Laboratory, handed the remaining data to an engineer next to her, and then walked out of the Laboratory with a smile.

Inside the Laboratory, these people watched Shen Yuan leave with the boss, feeling quite envious.

"Ah, I'm so envious, she's climbed up to the strongest person in the Shelter," a Laboratory staff member said.

"If you have the ability, you go climb too!

That young lady's academic ability is stronger than yours, she's prettier than you, and she's young and knows how to please people.

What do you have to compare with her?"

"Our General Manager Meng shouldn't have moved to this damned place and become a slave to others," another Laboratory staff member complained.

"Stop talking.

Be careful with what you say.

This boss is much more formidable than General Manager Meng.

You'd better be careful not to get into trouble."

......

Speaking of Tian Ming, he directly took Shen Yuan into a flying car and flew towards the city.

"Boss, where are we going?" Shen Yuan asked.

"To find a Corpse King!" Tian Ming said.
