Around Ludao Island, humans were building huge walls along the coastline. The city wall under construction was divided into dozens of construction sites and built in sections. This was a huge construction project.

For this reason, the leaders in the base recruited a large amount of labor, and wanted to transform the island into a strong sea fortress.

Before the apocalypse, large armed forces were stationed there. Therefore, the management power of the entire island was relatively concentrated, and it was in the hands of several former internal personnel, including Fu Guoxu’s uncle Fu Jianjun.

They had powerful thermal weapons in hand, well-disciplined and well-trained soldiers. Only in that way could they kill demons quickly and efficiently, organize the construction project of Ludao Fortress, and provide a safe place for the residents.

The sky was still blue-gray, the east was slightly pale, a lot of people had gathered in front of the construction site of a certain section of the city wall. Most of them were strong men, yawning or squatting or standing, looking and waiting lazily.

Suddenly, these people stood up and rushed in one direction after another.

A middle-aged woman who was over forty years old came over. She was dressed in a “decent” dress that was completely different from those muddy workers on the construction site. She had long curly hair, lipstick on her lips, and a dress that was not suitable for her age was put on her bloated body.

She looked at the muddy ground under her feet, frowned and stopped.

Immediately someone graciously took a few pieces of thick paper and laid them on the ground, “Sister Cai, go here, don’t step on it. It will dirty your shoes.”

Sister Cai lifted her chin, walked across the paper, and sat down behind a square table.

The men quickly lined up at the table. These people may be white-collar workers or executives of a certain company before the apocalypse. They were there because they didn’t know how to work on the construction site, so they could only rely on selling themselves.

An adult man was busy on the construction site from early morning to nightfall, but he could only receive crude food for one person.

Even so, this was a rare and stable job on the island, and not everyone could get it.

The front row position was occupied by a few strong men, and many people in the back row tried their best to jump in front.

Sister Cai knocked on the stainless steel water cup on the table with an iron spoon, and said impatiently, “Hurry up and arrange yourself. Whoever makes trouble again, don’t think about getting a job.”

The line quickly calmed down and lined up in a neat row.

“Today I need a hundred strong workers,” Sister Cai took out a stack of thick work cards. When they received the work card and completed a day’s work such as digging soil, moving bricks, sieving sand, with the work card signed by the foreman, they could get hard noodles. And the noodles were all the food an adult could get after a hard day’s work.

The man who received the work permit smiled, nodded and bowed in gratitude, and cautiously indulged in this Sister Cai.

This woman had some background in the base, so she was arranged to have such a small job, but such a small job could determine the fate of hundreds of people in the era.

She was quite proud, and the compliments she received everyday made her arrogant, feeling that she was indeed an amazing person.

She raised her head high and arrogantly selected the workers.

“No, you’re too old, next one,” she pointed at a man in front of her and waved.

“I can work; I was a porter before. Look at the muscles on my shoulders,” the middle-aged man with white hair rolled up his sleeves.

Sister Cai snorted impatiently, “I told you to leave, why waste my time?”

Several men rushed up immediately, dragged him away, punched and kicked him, “Sister Cai, I dare to talk back, not knowing good from bad.”

“Please give me a chance. I have a wife who has a broken leg. If I don’t work today, both of us will be hungry,” the middle-aged man was dragged away all the way and still kept turning back and shouting.

Sister Cai rolled her eyes and glanced lazily at the next person.
