<h4>Chapter 493: Chapter 214: Joining the Meeting and Buying Shares, The Crowd Hopes_3</h4>


    As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s eyes lit up.


    They had visited Liang Yuan’s cave, and it was sofortable and cozy.


    If they could buy furniture and appliances too, wouldn’t they be able to make their own caves look beautiful as well?


    The girls were especially excited.


    They envied Yang Mei so much, as she always looked beautifully dressed and smelled delightful every day.


    Unlike them, who reeked of sweat or fish all over.


    How wonderful it would be to take a bath and use some soap every day?


    And not to mention the men, who wanted nothing more than toe home and not have to cook after an exhausting day.


    If there were delicious ready-made dishes, that would be perfect.


    Liang Yuan’s n was instantly embraced by everyone.


    Zhao Kai and the others couldn’t wait for Liang Yuan to implement it.


    Shi Haizhu even shouted, "Mr. Liang, if you need our help, just say the word."


    Liang Yuan smiled and said, "The main issue right now is the location. This supermarket can’t be built outdoors, as it could be attacked by mutant beasts or targeted by other superpower users at any time."


    "So I n to find a suitable ce on the nearby cliffs and excavate an indoor structure. The current n is to have four floors: the first and second for dining, the third for supermarket shopping, and the fourth for entertainment and rxation."


    "Each floor must be of a decent size, at least the size of a small supermarket."


    "That’s a lot of work," Zhao Kai couldn’t help but say.


    Liang Yuan nodded, "Yes, that’s why I called you here. I need everyone to help me get this done. All participants will get a share of the profits."


    All the superpower users present were immediately tempted.


    This n sounded like a sure investment.


    Especially because Liang Yuan, being a space ability user, must have arge stockpile of supplies.


    So this supermarket was bound to be very promising.


    Now they only had to invest somebor to reap future benefits. Why wouldn’t they?


    Liang Yuan also needed to win over all the superpower users, as running a shelter couldn’t be sustained by reputation alone.


    But binding their interests together would create an unshakeable rtionship.


    So everyone excitedly agreed.


    Liang Yuan also happily signed some documents with them.


    Although there was no legal support anymore, relying on words alone was not enough. Leaving something in writing gave everyone a sense of security and motivation.


    The specifics of the profit-sharing and the stakes didn’t need to be detailed.


    For Liang Yuan, he wasn’t aiming to create amercialplex but to build this points mall, so everyone would work for him, hunt and fish, earning him more points.


    As for other benefits, such as eating meat and living a good life, those were just added bonuses for the participants.


    In short, it was a win-win n.


    With the contracts settled, the next step was to choose the location.


    Everyone made suggestions, talking over each other, rmending ces they thought were suitable.


    It was then that Song Wen suddenly spoke up, "Brother Liang, I found a ce that’s absolutely perfect."


    Liang Yuan looked at her and asked, "Oh? Where is it?"


    "To the west of the Fire Bamboo Forest, there’s a mountain recess, surrounded by mountains on three sides. The only entrance is through our Fire Bamboo Forest."


    "Earlier, Granny Li and I surveyed the terrain to find a suitable ce to nt taro."


    "I think it could not only serve as the supermarket base but also for nting crops in the mountain recess."


    "As long as we guard the Fire Bamboo Forest, the other three sides are shielded by mountains, making it a perfect shelter camp."


    As soon as Song Wen had finished, Yang Shenmin chimed in, "I’ve been to the ce she mentioned. Mr. Liang, it’s indeed a good spot. The mountain recess is quiterge, and the terrain is rtively t. Once we clear the weeds and trees, it can definitely be developed as our base."


    Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, tomorrow we’ll go check it out. For the next couple of days, let’s focus on the imminent sea tide."


    Everyone nodded enthusiastically, their spirits lifted.


    Life was looking more promising. After leaving Meidu Garden, their hearts were filled with uncertainty.


    No one knew where they were headed, with floods everywhere and mutant beasts all around, hope seemed out of reach.


    But things were different now. They hade to Yangshan and found a foothold.


    Although food and drink were still in short supply, at least they saw hope.


    With water andnd, there’s hope.


    Most importantly, they had established contact with the military and received information from them.


    Knowing the military still existed and the country hadn’tpletely copsed gave them something to hold on to.


    Now, with Liang Yuan taking the lead at Yangshan, everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction.


    This was worlds apart from their life hiding in the building.


    Back then, they could barely survive from day to day, struggling for each meal.


    Earlier still, even survival was uncertain, oppressed by people like Wang Ze and Liu Erlong.


    Looking at them now, they had all survived and were living increasingly better lives.


    "I wonder if those who decided to stay in the building and wait for rescue regret it now, knowing how we’re living," Liu Feifei mused aloud.


    Zhao Kai beside herughed, "Everyone has their own choices."


    "From the beginning, I’ve always believed that if anyone could lead us to survive, it would be Brother Liang."


    Others turned to listen.


    Yang Shenmin couldn’t help but agree, "Indeed, only Mr. Liang has the kindness and the capability to lead us through this."


    He couldn’t imagine, if not for Liang Yuan, their building’s inhabitants would already be dead at the hands of Deng Hu and his group.


    Even if they killed Deng Hu, staying in the building would have meant certain death from mutant frogs and other beasts.


    Now, they not only survived but secured their foothold in Yangshan, all thanks to Liang Yuan.


    "We must be united in executing this supermarketplex n," Yang Shenmin urged, "If we do it well, we might secure our stronghold in Yangshan for good. Then, the four major shelters would have to acknowledge us. We might even be the fifth major shelter!"


    "Yes! We are no fewer in numberpared to other shelters. With Mr. Liang, we can definitely seed!"


    "Everyone, let’s do this!"


    "Survive!"
