Chapter 766: Chapter 294: The Wisdom of Superiors_3
"If he really had bad intentions, none of us combined would be a match for him."
His words, although harsh, were surprisingly effective.
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
In their view, Mr. Liang was so powerful that he probably wouldn’t take the trouble just to deal with them.
Before long, the group ran back to Jieshi Academy.
As soon as they arrived, they were shocked to find that most of the superpower users at Jieshi Academy were gone, leaving only a superpower user named Li Mingliang and his wife, Yang Mailin, to guard the place.
The rest were just some physically weak ordinary people.
Yang Jie, seeing this, quickly asked, "Li Mingliang, where did everyone go?"
Li Mingliang replied quickly, "Brother Xiangyang came back early this morning. He said Mr. Liang had brought people over to Yangshan and built a floating bridge that leads directly to our Meishan."
"He also said that Mr. Liang established a shelter at Yangshan. Our Meishan’s game and mutant vegetables are important resources that we can trade at the Yangshan Shelter for lots of points."
"He took everyone out to hunt for game and dig up mutant vegetables, saying we need to make good use of our time and stock up while the floating bridge isn’t fully operational."
"As soon as the floating bridge is ready, we’ll rush back to Yangshan to deliver the mutant vegetable varieties we’ve found and trade them for points."
Li Mingliang’s explanation left Yang Jie stunned. What points, what floating bridge, what was going on?
But Yang Hai cut straight to the core of the issue, asking, "Are you saying Brother Xiangyang plans to join the Yangshan Shelter?"
From what was just described, it seemed like Brother Xiangyang was collecting mutant vegetables for the Yangshan Shelter to exchange them for points over there.
Wouldn’t that mean working for the Yangshan Shelter?
Li Mingliang said, "I don’t know. My wife and I just had a fight, and Brother Xiangyang told us to stay here and guard the place, not to go with them."
Yang Hai was speechless, "What were you two fighting about again? You’re always fighting, it’s never-ending."
Upon hearing this, Yang Mailin’s eyes immediately reddened, and she began to cry, "It’s good that you’re here. You be the judge. Yesterday we were all talking about how lucky Yang Mei was to meet Mr. Liang."
"Everyone said Yang Mei was noticed by Mr. Liang because of her good figure and looks."
"He listened in and actually nodded. What does that mean? Does he think Yang Mei looks better and has a better figure than I do?"
Yang Jie couldn’t help but say, "No, Yang Mailin, Sister Yang Mei does look better than you. What’s there to argue about?"
Yang Mailin quickly said, "I’m not saying Yang Mei doesn’t look as good as me, but Li Mingliang is my husband. Shouldn’t I be the best looking in his eyes? How can he think other women are pretty?"
Yang Jie was speechless, and Yang Hai didn’t want to deal with her either.
So the two of them stopped wasting words with her and asked Li Mingliang directly, "Where did Brother Xiangyang and the others go?"
"They’re harvesting vegetables and sweet potatoes in the fields," Li Mingliang quickly replied.
"Let’s go, to the fields."
Without another word, Yang Jie and Yang Hai turned and left.
Li Mingliang wanted to go but glanced at his wife Yang Mailin, hesitated for a moment, and stayed behind.
Yang Jie and Yang Hai ran all the way and finally found Li Xiangyang and the others at the edge of the field.
They saw Li Xiangyang leading dozens of people, desperately harvesting crops.
Seeing this, Yang Jie quickly ran over and shouted, "Brother Xiangyang, what are you doing?"
Li Xiangyang didn’t even look up, "You came at the right time, quickly, help out. We need to dig up whatever we can before the people from Yangshan arrive."
Yang Jie asked curiously, "Brother Xiangyang, are they coming to take our crops?"
Li Xiangyang wiped the rain off his forehead, "No, we need to be the first to bring these to Yangshan to exchange for points."
"I’ve inquired at the plantation, and new types of mutant vegetables, regardless of the variety, have a contribution reward of over 500 points."
"Additionally, mutant creatures with edible value, if caught alive and delivered to the farm, also have a generous point reward."
"We must be the first to get these to Yangshan, or if someone else beats us to it, our discoveries won’t count as new anymore."
Yang Hai couldn’t help but shout, "Brother Xiangyang, what are points? And are we joining the Yangshan Shelter?"
Li Xiangyang sighed, "Points are like the currency at the Yangshan Shelter. As for joining, we don’t even know if they’ll accept us."
"Right now, we need to hurry and harvest these. This is our one chance, miss it, and it’s gone."
Yang Hai and Yang Jie exchanged glances. Was the Yangshan Shelter really that good?
Would the shelter not even care to accept so many of them?
But seeing Li Xiangyang’s urgency, they knew this wasn’t a joke.
They had no choice but to push aside their doubts and join in the harvesting.
Before long, someone else ran over to the edge of the field.
It was a young man, shouting loudly, "Brother Xiangyang, Brother Xiangyang, Uncle Changlin asked me to tell you that Mr. Liang wants to see you!"
Li Xiangyang, busy as he was, shivered when he heard this and quickly stood up straight.
Zhang Rongrong, who was beside him, also stood up anxiously, "Brother Xiangyang, what does Mr. Liang want to see you for?"
Li Xiangyang sighed, "I’m afraid he wants to discuss what’s to be done with us."
Zhang Rongrong quickly said, "Then I’ll go with you."
Li Xiangyang shook his head, "No, you all stay here. Go find Yang Wei and tell him to bring the harvested mutant vegetables and the mutant goats and water buffalo we caught to the Yangshan Shelter for trade, exchange everything for points."
