#868 - Chapter 868 Recruiting a Group of Women
Guangnan Province.
Green Source Base Headquarters.
It was the early hours of the morning, but the leader's office was still brightly lit.
Inside, the crackling fireplace kept the room at a comfortable temperature, a luxury enjoyed by the base's upper echelons.
Even at this late hour, a slender figure was still hunched over her desk, reviewing documents and contemplating the base's development.
It was Zhao Ling.
The acting female leader of the Green Source Base had yet to rest, spending her time processing and reviewing the day's work, or optimizing tasks she felt hadn't been completed well enough.
She was practically an industry workaholic.
"Huff—"
After who knows how long, Zhao Ling closed her files and stood up to stretch, her thin sweater revealing her curvaceous figure.
It was a pity that someone had gone off somewhere and hadn't returned recently.
"It's been almost a month since you left, aren't you coming back?"
She stared out the huge floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the dark night sky and the scattered stars.
This was usually Qin Jin's job, but he had gone out to handle some matters and hadn't returned, so this scene was left to his woman.
Zhao Ling was beginning to worry about her man not returning.
Even though she had great confidence in him, a month without news was still causing her anxiety.
Unlike the tough, iron-willed image she usually presented to others, she could only show her vulnerable side when she was alone.
Who wouldn't want a strong support to rely on?
She was just putting on a brave face.
The Green Source Base hadn't encountered any major problems recently, which was the result of her best efforts.
Only those in this position could understand the pressure.
The massive Green Source Base directly or indirectly affected the lives of tens of thousands of people, and even a slight misjudgment could lead to numerous deaths!
This was no joke!
Leaving aside the distant threat of zombies, the ongoing cold disaster was already making life miserable for many survivors.
Every day, survivors were dying outside the Green Source area.
Some lacked food, some lacked medicine, and some lacked winter supplies.
In short.
Survivors were dying in all sorts of strange ways.
And Zhao Ling, as the acting leader, needed to find ways to ensure that the headquarters, the large residential areas, the small residential areas, and the various trading branches outside the Green Source area could all survive as much as possible.
The headquarters and residential areas were relatively easy to manage, but the problem lay with those outlying areas and trading branches.
To maintain Green Source's vast rule and communication network, many trading branches needed people to manage power plants and maintain fixed communication radios for extended periods.
If anything happened to these people, they would send a message back to headquarters requesting support.
The combat troops had been very busy recently.
They needed to travel between various locations to provide rescue and transport supplies.
Zhao Ling wouldn't allow any accidents to occur during her time as Qin Jin's assistant that would result in the loss of headquarters personnel, so she needed to integrate various pieces of information every day to make the best decisions.
Fortunately, she had persevered recently, and no major incidents had occurred in any of the areas under Green Source's control in Guangnan Province.
At this time, Green Source was definitely the undisputed overlord of Guangnan Province.
It's worth mentioning that about a month ago, when the cold disaster had just begun, an all-female force, introduced by the Red Cloud Base, sent a message wanting to become an affiliate of Green Source.
Later, after Zhao Ling and the cadres discussed it in a meeting, they approved the force's request to join.
And in the following days, they sent team members to audit and confirm this force called the Rose Base, and confirmed that the other party was indeed a collective of survivors that could cooperate with.
The Rose Base had more than 300 people, but due to excessive losses of supplies during the last corpse fog, they were unable to support such a large population, so the Rose Leader agreed to divide half of the members and hand them over to Green Source to manage.
Basically, it was like giving them to Green Source.
Was there a shortage of women in the apocalypse?
Yes!
A great shortage!
Due to physiological differences, women found it extremely difficult to survive in the apocalypse.
Not only did they have to face the threat of zombies, but that time of the month was an even more difficult challenge.
Not to mention the even more terrifying malice from other male survivors.
There was no order in the apocalypse, and the evil in people's hearts was amplified countless times.
Relatively weak women, as long as they appeared outdoors and were discovered by ill-intentioned male survivors, would often fall into the clutches of predators.
Who knows how many women who became mutated Night Queens didn't die at the hands of zombies, but at the hands of other humans!
Therefore, women were very precious one year into the apocalypse!
Having developed to Green Source's current scale, not to mention Qin Jin, even cadres like Zhao Ling knew that if they wanted to maintain the flame of civilization in the future, they had to absorb more female survivors.
The Rose Base had arrived at a good time.
This wave of joining when the cold disaster came was just in line with Green Source's needs.
After Zhao Ling and the others passed the audit of the Rose Base, they accepted the joining of 170 female members!
After being reviewed, these women were placed in various small residential areas of the Green Source area.
And they were given a probationary period. As long as they performed well, these women would have the opportunity to become glorious Level 1 personnel in the future!
Of course, only some of them could.
But it was still like a pie falling from the sky!
For all the survivors in Guangnan Province, who didn't know that Green Source had the best treatment!?
Here, they had safety and order that was unimaginable outside, and as long as they worked hard normally, they could eat and wouldn't starve to death!
Truly an iron rice bowl in the apocalypse!
Originally, these personnel who were selected and separated by the Rose Leader were a little unhappy, but when they heard that they were joining Green Source and would have the opportunity to become formal personnel in the future, all their unhappiness disappeared!
On the contrary, those Rose Base personnel who were not selected envied these departing sisters!
It was simply outrageous.
Of course, Green Source would no longer give them a chance to regret it. Adding more than a hundred women in a short period of time was about enough for the small residential areas. They would need to continue to slowly increase the number after they were digested in the future.
This move caused a stir in the entire Green Source forum for a while.
Yes.
The current Green Source Base had established a new forum for all Green Source internal personnel!
It was placed on the Green Speech APP.
All personnel with mobile phones could log in with their real-name accounts to browse the various news and benefits released by the base.
They could also find other personnel to add as friends and chat.
They could also form group chats.
Different levels of accounts corresponded to different levels of personnel.
For example, Level 1 personnel would have a Level 1 badge on their accounts, Level 2 personnel would have a Level 2 badge, and so on.
Every day after getting off work, Green Source people who had mobile phones could surf the Internet and spend their time.
Many free technical knowledge resources were also placed on the forum, and personnel of each level could download, browse, and study them. It was said that after passing the assessment, they could also obtain contribution points and accelerate the promotion of personnel levels!
The emergence of the Green Source APP and forum greatly enriched the lives of Green Source people.
