Our factory traveled through time

Chapter 46: Let me attack the cultivators?

"Leave these things to your capable wife, don't talk to me, I'm too lazy to listen."

Wang Ce let it go in one ear and out the other; he knew he wasn't cut out for this, and Zhang Luoyan could think about these things.

Ultimately, Wang Ce is a typical individualist; his desire to develop a team is also a way to better protect himself.

Therefore, from beginning to end, he was not interested in Sheng Hong's rule.

His requirements were simple: no one should interfere with him, and he should have a complete logistical support system.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Is this the kind of term you use to describe a virtuous wife?"

Seeing Zhang Luoyan's expressionless reply, Wang Ce touched his nose somewhat sullenly. This woman really wasn't interested in him.

That shouldn't be the case. Why did she shield me from the Black and White Spirit Fruit before? Was it really just to get ahead of me and seize the opportunity?

Wang Ce felt that he still had some brains and his logical thinking was very clear, but no matter how he analyzed it, he couldn't figure out what Zhang Luoyan was thinking.

He wouldn't dare to express himself to Zhang Luoyan; he's always been cautious and doesn't fight battles he's not sure he can win.

Back at the factory, Wang Ce quickly made his escape and began organizing people to move equipment upstairs.

Now all the employees have evolved, making a total of forty-one people including the three of them, but none of them have any superpowers.

Only four are physical evolutionists: one has evolved legs, two have evolved arms, and one has evolved a third leg.

After confirming several times that the worker was not joking, Wang Ce finally accepted the fact.

As it was getting dark, the food had already been distributed to the various factories.

Everyone was terrified of hunger, so they brought back crocodile skin, black eagle feathers, and even some inedible internal organs.

These could be used as bait for animal traps; it's a shameful waste.

"Manager Wang, if I hold the crystal core in my hand, will it really complete its first evolution in about an hour?"

Xiao Yong was dumbfounded, and the other factory workers were also staring at each other in disbelief, especially Zhao Jiajia, who had previously guarded hundreds of crystal cores in Black Hawk's lair, was completely stunned.

They never dreamed that evolution would be so simple.

"Don't worry about evolving. It will take about ten more to evolve to the first tier, but to evolve to the second tier, you'll need more than two hundred. If you have a second-tier orange crystal core, a dozen or so will be enough to advance to the second tier."

"It would be best if the female workers from the Beibeijia factory stayed with Shenghong Evolution, as girls might experience sudden complications such as high fever."

"After all, we have two second-tier evolved beings, which can reduce the risk to some extent."

Upon hearing Wang Ce's affirmative answer, many people wore expressions of utter dismay, finally understanding the feeling of being sold out and then being the one who gets the money.

They had many opportunities to come into contact with the crystal core, but because of previous rumors, everyone was very careful and tried to avoid touching it directly.

The saying "three men can make a tiger" has become a law over time.

They would rather believe that Wang Ce evolved by eating foxtail grass than accept the fact that crystal cores can evolve.

"Manager Zhang, our Black Rare Earth Chemical Plant sincerely wants to join Shenghong, and we will absolutely obey Shenghong's orders and resolutely implement Shenghong's strategic policies!"

Clearly, Xiao Yong had gone back to discuss it, and this time he was obviously prepared. Workers from the black rare earth chemical plant outside brought a lot of gunpowder with them.

"Manager Zhang, we at Longmen Bamboo and Wood fully support the survivor camp centered around Sheng Hong. We believe that under Sheng Hong's leadership, we will definitely be able to take root and survive in this land."

The person in charge of Longmen Bamboo and Wood followed suit with a statement.

Those who understand the times are wise. They had previously thought of developing independently, since the factory had huge resource advantages and could have taken advantage of the situation to rise to prominence.

But once they learned how evolution works, they lost their temper.

Wang Ce has acquired at least several hundred crystal cores, which he has now mostly used to cultivate two second-tier evolvers. The difficulty for them to obtain crystal cores has increased exponentially.

Rather than that, it would be better to follow Sheng Hong. Zhang Luoyan's strategic vision and organizational skills, as well as Wang Ce's tactical acumen, are both evident to all.

While it's still considered an initial public offering (IPO) stock, it's best to join as soon as possible; it's not too late.

"Welcome to both of your factories. Through this opening of the third hunting route, we believe you also recognize the strength and management system of Shenghong."

"Like I said before, now that we've already traveled through time, everyone's primary goal is to survive better."

"There are 92 crystal cores left. Each of your five factories will receive 10 cores. You need to select the truly capable people to evolve. The managers, don't rush. Everyone will have the opportunity to evolve later."

"Go back and select your personnel now. Meet at Shenghong in ten minutes for a unified evolution!"

Zhang Luoyan immediately sent the people from the five factories back to bring over the candidates for evolution.

This can greatly avoid concentrating resources on individuals and wasting resources on non-combat personnel.

Furthermore, they need to obtain the evolutionary data of these individuals in order to estimate the proportion of those with physical evolution and those with superpowers.

At least among all these people in Shenghong, not a single person with superpowers has appeared.

Soon, the people from the five factories who needed to be upgraded gathered in Shenghong's office on the fifth floor.

Bei Jiajia's female worker evolved alone in Zhang Luoyan's office, while the others absorbed crystal cores in place.

An hour later, Wang Ce tallied the evolution results.

In the Black Rare Earth Chemical Plant, Xiao Yong is the only physical evolutionist. He has evolved his arms, greatly increasing his strength.

All the lithium battery users are ordinary evolved beings. Only the most diligent skinny guy in Suqu Jewelry Factory is a physique evolved through two legs. His name is Hou Ji.

In Longmen Bamboo and Wood, only the hunting captain is a physical evolutionist. This is somewhat special, as he is a brain evolutionist, specifically characterized by active thinking. Wang Ce paid close attention to this person, whose name is Lu Neng.

There are now forty-two crystal cores left, and Zhang Luoyan has no plans to let Xiao Yong, Hou Ji, and Lu Neng, the three physique evolvers, evolve yet.

Things that are obtained too easily are not cherished.

After agreeing to fully open the third hunting route by tomorrow, Zhang Luoyan dismissed the workers from the five factories.

However, the female workers at Beijiajia seemed to be still quite weak, so they stayed in the office a little longer.

Huang Feipeng stood next to Zhao Jiajia, boasting and bragging about something, which made Zhao Jiajia smile slightly.

Wang Ce, meanwhile, was munching on the newly collected foxtail grass while familiarizing himself with the Iron Shirt technique.

This is a life-saving skill, and I've only just begun to learn it. To achieve even a basic level of mastery, I'll need to accumulate a lot of resources and practice diligently.

He glanced at Zhang Luoyan beside him and found that she was more diligent than him. She had been sitting cross-legged since they came up to the fifth floor, and he didn't know what she was thinking about.

"Brother Ce, Brother Ce, we have another superhuman!"

Huang Feipeng shook Wang Ce awake, interrupting his rhythm of eating foxtail grass. Zhang Luoyan, who was standing next to him, also opened her eyes.

But in an instant, he turned his gaze to Zhao Jiajia, who was blinking her big eyes and looking in this direction.

"That Zhao Jiajia? What kind of superpower does she have?"

Huang Feipeng's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "Amazing! You even guessed that. Jiajia's superpower is water control."

"She thought she had turned into a monster, so she was afraid to say it. She only told me that she could do it when I was showing off my metal-controlling ability just now."

Zhang Luoyan handed over the cloth bag containing the crystal cores, saying calmly, "There are forty-two crystal cores here. Let's make her a first-tier evolver first."

"She's too naive and can't bring out her full potential. You need to guide her more and help her grow up as quickly as possible. We don't have much time left."

Huang Feipeng chuckled and said, "Manager Zhang, you're so generous! I wish you and Brother Ce a speedy—oh my god!"

Before Huang Feipeng could finish speaking, Zhang Luoyan kicked him away, sending him sprawling to the ground with a thud, wincing in pain.

Wang Ce's right eyelid twitched, and he involuntarily shifted his position, saying, "Why did you kick him? What if he was just wishing us a speedy advancement?"

When Zhang Luoyan looked at him, Wang Ce felt his right eyelid twitch even faster.

He coughed lightly, quickly stood up, and said, "You keep practicing, I'm going to check out the new map Zhou Li gave me."

Watching Wang Ce's disheveled retreating figure, Zhang Luoyan murmured in a voice barely above a whisper, "Coward."

The next day, when they set off again, the hunting team was reduced to fifty people, all of whom were evolved beings, the elites of their respective factories.

"Manager Wang, our property canteen would like to join you too. I want to go hunting and gathering with you."

Zhou Jiakun had been waiting for Wang Ce at the south gate of the industrial park. Ever since he learned that the crystal core could evolve, Zhou Jiakun had become a pariah, an object of everyone's hatred.

These people didn't dare offend Zhang Luoyan and Wang Ce, so they thought of venting their anger on Zhou Jiakun.

Zhou Jiakun was not allowed to use either the first or second hunting and gathering route, so he had no choice but to come and find Wang Ce.

Wang Ce raised an eyebrow and feigned doubt, saying, "You're too scared to go hunting, so why would you join me? I have enough manpower right now, and I can't afford to support so many people for the time being."

Zhou Jiakun gritted his teeth and said firmly, "Manager Wang, the food has spoiled, and our property management and canteen workers have almost nothing left to eat."

"I've made up my mind to follow you. I'll do whatever you tell me to do, as long as I can eat!"

Zhou Jiakun also had his own ideas. The third hunting route had been almost cleared, and tall watchtowers had been built far apart, so there was definitely a guarantee of safety.

Therefore, joining Wang Ce now can solve the problem of food and clothing, and also avoid suppression and targeting by the other two forces.

Wang Ce, of course, knew Zhou Jiakun's little scheme, and said with a smile:

"I do have a mission for you. There's a gathering place for cultivators to the north, and I plan to send you there to attack it!"

Zhou Jiakun was stunned for a moment, then said incredulously, "Me? Go attack the gathering place of cultivators?"
