Apocalypse: Transmigrated General’s Daughter Uses Space to Survive

"So, General Chu, what do we do for now?" Yang Leo, being a former professor, found it easier to discuss logistics than the art of war. So, he asked more questions.

"For now, we should try to recruit as many people as possible. Since our goal is to ensure the survival of humanity, we have to take in as many people as we can.

However, we have to be careful when recruiting people. Don't bring in some people with questionable character because they may cause trouble later on." Grandpa Chu was very clear about what to do, so he instructed right away.

"Father, where do you suggest we find so many people? It looks like even though there are people who haven't left our community yet, and probably other communities are the same, the majority of them have already joined safe bases built by the military.

It's not going to be easy to recruit many people, especially trustworthy ones." He Yan asked her father-in-law because she was confused about this point, but she knew that he must have a plan.

"That's why we can't just go door-to-door to recruit people. If we do that, how are we ever going to assess their strength and character?

What we have to do is send out people to collect supplies. In the process of scavenging, they will meet others and that is the right place to recruit.

You can judge how people who are in trouble try to overcome their problem, or how those in teams treat others within their teams or just strangers they meet.

This way, not only can you judge their strength, but also character. But this conversation has to remain here. You can only share it with those who are going out to recruit members for our sect.

Also, ask them to keep it a secret. This condition shouldn't be spread to avoid people with ulterior motives from pretending to be what we are looking for and infiltrating our sect." Grandpa Chu really is a wise man.

He knew how to judge people's hearts and decided to use that to find reliable and loyal sect members.

"That's a good idea. If we use that method to recruit new people, we can avoid some problems in the future. When those little guys come back, everything can be set in motion in full swing.

For now, I suggest we do as you suggested. Recruiting more people and bringing them here." Grandpa Li was agreeable to his old friend's suggestion.

"That's settled then. How about how to manage the people? Do they provide their own food and other necessities, or is there a ration for everyone?" The first son of the Li family who had been in the military asked.

He thought that they might use the system used to manage the lives of soldiers. Even though they have their own salaries and can buy their own stuff, the military would provide a certain ration for every soldier.

When everyone heard this they were quiet for a while. Father Chu remembered all the food including grain, fruits, vegetables, and meat in the soul ring and thought that it was best if they provided a ration for every family depending on their contributions.

"I think that there should be a team dedicated specifically for collecting supplies that will be distributed to everyone. If someone wants to go out in their free time to scavenge their own supplies, then those won't be included in the community's chest.

However, our Chu family had also talked about cultivating a piece of land that can be used to produce food such as grains and vegetables.

We are going to recruit people, so I believe that we will have more people with wood, water, and earth superpowers that could help in the growth of crops.

In this way, no matter the circumstances, we will never lack food.

Our Chu family also has a place where we are able to raise animals for meat, so we can offer a regular supply of meat.

In this way, our people will never starve to death. However, everything distributed will depend heavily on contributions. So, we have to set up a contribution system where we can determine how much one has contributed and provide supplies depending on that.

What do you all think?" Chu Mo explained most of their concerns and also asked for their opinions at the end.

In fact, everyone was shocked when they heard the plan the Chu family had come up with.

They thought that the family would mostly be providing free food for everyone when others in other bases outside would probably be starving.

It was especially so when they heard Chu Mo say that they had animals somewhere that could provide meat regularly. How long had it been since they last saw an animal slaughtered for fresh meat? They couldn't remember.

However, here they were being told that it was possible in the future, who wouldn't want to join such a sect?

So, everyone was psyched to work hard and make their plan a success.

"Alright then, let's disperse and go work on recruiting people. Li Kun, take a few of the other soldiers, to scout the community and register all the empty apartments and also find out who hasn't left for the safe bases yet.

Find out why they are still around and if they want to join us. If they are willing to join us, tell them the rules and see if they agree. If they don't, we will find a way to isolate them because we cannot have idle people in our sect." Grandpa Chu said this forcefully so everyone knew that he was serious about taking care of those people who hadn't left.

Even though one could say that the general was inhumane, things were complicated at the moment and he couldn't use the same tactics used before the apocalypse.

Even though he would prefer to protect all the citizens, he couldn't put the rest of the sect in danger for the sake of a few people.
