Ye Xingchen looked at the neighbors’ actions and nodded in satisfaction.
Only those who had participated in the battle were qualified to be part of his base.
“Clap, clap, clap!”
Ye Xingchen smiled and clapped as he walked back to where he was standing just now.
“Good! Well done! Did everyone see that? As long as everyone is united, these foreign invaders will not be able to defeat us!”
“What do we have to be afraid of?”
Ye Xingchen looked at the two people standing at the front who had worked the hardest just now. Their faces were already covered in blood and wounds of all sizes. He waved his hand.
“You two, come here!”
The two people who were pointed out had a happy expression on their faces.
Ignoring the waves of pain coming from their bodies, they quickly walked up to Ye Xingchen.
Ye Xingchen bent down, scooped out a large amount of food from the pile of things on the ground, and stuffed it into their arms.
One handful was not enough, so he scooped up another handful!
Cracked fruits, dried vegetables, frozen meat, fish frozen in ice, and several bags of bread, biscuits, and instant noodles!
These were all top-grade delicacies that filled one’s stomach!
When the neighbors standing behind saw this scene, they were so envious that their saliva was about to drip down. They really missed this junk food with excessive amounts of chemicals.
Ye Xingchen stuffed their arms full and patted their shoulders.
“Work hard. If you keep this up, there will be better rewards in the future!”
“I won’t mistreat anyone who sincerely works for the team!”
The two of them had their arms full of food and were so excited that their bodies were trembling.
The two of them lived relatively far away. They lived at the edge of the community and were far from Zhang Yi’s house. When they arrived at Zhang Yi’s house, there was not much food left.
The two of them had been hungry for a long time, which was why they were so desperate to hit those people with their sticks.
So much food, this was something the two of them did not even dare to imagine!
This was enough for them to eat for a few days!
With tears streaming down their faces, they bowed to Ye Xingchen and began to show their loyalty. “We’ll all follow you in the future! We’ll listen to whatever you say!”
“Brother Ye! We’ll listen to you in the future!”
One of them was called Li Qiang, and the other was called Wang Wei. Both of them lived in Chen Rou’er’s residential building.
The group of people behind them began to regret it. If they had taken the initiative just now, the food might have been theirs.
Ye Xingchen was very satisfied with the current situation.
After the two people who had contributed the most were rewarded, it was the turn for the others.
“Alright, from now on, line up one by one. I’ll distribute the food to you.”
Just now, Ye Xingchen stood at the back and saw everyone’s performance. He would give more to those who fought hard, and less to those who didn’t. Most of the people inside only got a small package of bread or two palm-sized biscuits.
Ye Xingchen had raised a dog before, so he understood this very well.
If you wanted a dog to be obedient, you had to keep the dog hungry at all times. Otherwise, it would become lazy.
It was the same for humans.
They looked at the last bit of food they got and then looked at Li Qiang and
Wang Wei. They pouted their mouths, feeling dissatisfied, but they did not dare to object.
They knew that they had not exerted much strength in the fight just now.
“Qian Zhong.”
Ye Xingchen said the name of the son of a listed company’s CEO. Qian Zhong quickly walked forward and stretched out his hands. He stared at Ye Xingchen through his goggles. “It’s my turn, it’s my turn!”
Ye Xingchen frowned and casually dug around the ground. Then, he took out a sour plum that had been frozen until it cracked open and gave it to him.
“It’s yours.”
In an instant, a burst of laughter came from behind.
The people who had only received a small amount of food felt much more balanced now. Look, there was someone who got even less than them!
Qian Zhong’s eyes widened. He felt that he had been humiliated by Ye Xingchen.
“That’s it? Just a plum? How could this be called food?!”
Qian Zhong pinched the plum in his hand, which was already as hard as a small stone, and said through gritted teeth. “I’ve never offended you! What right do you have to humiliate me like this!”
Ye Xingchen only sneered. “It has nothing to do with whether or not you offended me. 1 clearly said just now that 1, Ye Xingchen, don’t raise idle people!”
“Did you help just now? The fight just now went on for so long, did you even move your hand? From the beginning to the end, you only wandered to the outermost part of the crowd. Do you think I’m blind? Giving you a plum is already considered my kindness!”
Qian Zhong was used to being pampered. He had always been the one who was docile and accommodating to others. When had he ever been treated like this? “It’s not fair!” he said angrily. “I don’t care! Why do they have a bite to eat while I only have a rotten fruit?”
“Unfair?” Ye Xingchen snorted. “Ha, is that so? Does everyone think I’m fair?” The people who had received the supplies shouted at the top of their lungs. “Fair! Ye Xingchen is the fairest!”
“Rewards and punishments are fair! Fair and just!”
Ye Xingchen glanced at Li Qiang and Wang Wei. “Someone questioned my decision. Tell me, how should we deal with such a person?”
Li Qiang and Wang Wei had already become Ye Xingchen’s loyal dogs. They put the food in their arms on the ground and stepped forward. Then, they pushed Qian Zhong, who was standing in front of Ye Xingchen, to the ground and started punching and kicking him.
Qian Zhong raised his head and wanted to shout a few more words, but he was quickly beaten by Li Qiang and Wang Wei until he couldn’t raise his head. He curled up into a ball and tightly protected his stomach.
After a few minutes, Qian Zhong was already gasping for breath and shouting his apologies.
Ye Xingchen raised his hand, signaling Li Qiang and Wang Wei to return to their positions.
He pointed at the person on the ground. “Everyone, you see, this is what happens to those who disobey my orders.”
“Don’t say that I’m overbearing. I’m a very fair person. If any of you have any objections to my way of doing things, you can put down the food in your hands immediately and leave right now. 1 can also guarantee that as long as those who have left don’t take the initiative to find trouble, 1 will never hurt them!” The group of people below looked at each other. No one was willing to take out the food they had already obtained and leave.
Nonsense, this food was hard to come by. Who would they be willing to spit out the good food that was in their mouths?
Ye Xingchen nodded in satisfaction. “Very good. It seems that you are all willing to obey my orders unconditionally..”
