Chapter 486
“There are more than a dozen of them. Sister Wu and Liu Xiuxian can follow Granny Li and find some work in the terraced fields. Song Wen will also take care of them p>
“But the others aren’t so lucky. Take Zhu Linlin, for example; she relies on her looks to serve Elder Lin all day. I can tell she’s not truly fond of Elder Lin, and Elder Lin is getting a bit tired of her. I even saw Zhu Linlin wiping her tears in the cave the other day p>
“Then there are many older uncles and a few young men who were wounded by people from Phoenix Temple. They’re injured, and it’s challenging for them to sustain their lives p>
After hearing this, Liang Yuan’s eyes gleamed slightly with realization and he suddenly said, “Your words made me think that I should give them something to do in order to survive p>
Yang Mei was stunned: “What do you mean p>
“I plan to set up a slaughterhouse specifically to handle the fish caught by the hunting team and fishing team p>
“Handling the fish isn’t a physically demanding job. As long as you’re quick with your hands, even the elderly and infirm in the shelter can do it p>
“I’m essentially providing them with stable employment, saving them from taking risks hunting or fishing p>
“Considering the danger posed by mutant fish, all the fish brought back will be uniformly slaughtered by me before handing over for processing p>
“What do you think of this idea p>
Yang Mei was surprised: “But… how will this slaughterhouse operate p>
Liang Yuan laughed immediately: “Of course, it can’t be free slaughtering, but it can’t be too expensive either. Otherwise, people might prefer to kill the fish themselves rather than letting the slaughterhouse do it p>
“Our slaughterhouse will help them kill fish and also provide cooking services. This way, it saves the hunters a lot of time from cooking and killing fish, allowing them more time to catch more fish p>
The more Liang Yuan talked, the more he felt his plan was feasible.
It’s said that professional matters are best handled by professionals.
The slaughterhouse not only collects fish but also helps with killing, processing the catch, and even provides dining services.
Throughout the process, everyone just needs to focus on catching fish and hunting mutant beasts, without having to spend time cooking.
Don’t underestimate the time taken to cook a meal. Cooking involves prepping ingredients, lighting a fire, and cleaning pots and dishes afterwards. The whole process easily takes more than an hour.
During the brief daytime, if all the time is wasted on this, how much time will be left to do other things?
Yang Mei followed his train of thought and said, “If you put it this way, I suddenly feel that we shouldn’t just set up a slaughterhouse, but rather a comprehensive service company p>
“This company should have various functions to serve the shelter population, not just slaughtering prey, but also processing, providing dining services, purchasing weapons, and exchanging living supplies p>
“Moreover, we should have our own currency system, which will increase cohesion as people will only spend what they earn within our system p>
Yang Mei sat up, getting more excited, and said: “No, it shouldn’t be called a currency system; we should follow stores and establish a Points system p>
“People can sell their hunting materials to us and earn corresponding Points. These Points can be used to dine, shop, and more at our place p>
“You want to set up a trading market, don’t you? Isn’t this the way to create a trading market p>
“You have the Space Superpower and a lot of supplies. Display them and let everyone exchange Points for purchases. Wouldn’t that be the biggest attraction?” Official source is ⓝovelFind.net
Liang Yuan was stunned by Yang Mei’s words.
Thinking carefully, what Sister Mei said was very feasible.
He immediately sat up and hugged her eagerly, giving her a few excited kisses.
“Wow, Sister Mei, you’re a business genius. How did you know about this Points mall p>
Yang Mei laughed, her chest heaving, teasingly said, “I love shopping and browsing online stores. These are old tricks of merchants p>
Then she added: “There’s so much to be done here. At that time, positions requiring service can be given to ordinary people without superpowers. It might even attract people from other shelter camps p>
“Of course, the premise is that you, the mall owner, possess absolute strength, otherwise such a big business might incite jealousy p>
Liang Yuan’s eyes lit up with enthusiasm: “This idea is fantastic p>
“A shelter commercial complex that integrates a farmers’ market, shopping center, and dining center p>
“Brilliant p>
Liang Yuan became excited and thought: “To create such a complex, we need a considerable space, preferably indoors p>
Yang Mei said: “We need to figure out how to dig another cave, preferably near the road, not too high, and layered. Currently, it doesn’t need to be too large; our shelter only has about a hundred people p>
Liang Yuan nodded and said: “This matter requires careful planning, but we can start digging the cave right away p>
As he spoke, his excitement left him restless, and he flipped over to press Yang Mei beneath him.
Yang Mei cried out in shock: “Brother, what are you doing p>
“Digging a cave p>
“What? No—mm p>
In the cave came waves of soft moans, blending with the raging storm outside.
“Ah—mercy, mercy, I’ve told you everything p>
To the west of Yangshan, stone forests stood tall, with caves dug everywhere.
