CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 59: MUTANT BEAST MEAT

This time, with a larger number of units being produced, it required two hours, so Ye Fan didn’t foolishly wait in the office.

Soon, the logistics support team downstairs announced that it was time to eat.

Ye Fan left the office and went downstairs to eat.

The mutant beast meat was already on the table, it was the meat of that zebra.

Ordinarily, horse meat isn’t particularly fragrant, but this mutant beast was different. While Ye Fan was upstairs researching production, the aroma made him swallow involuntarily.

A lot of tables were already set up inside the police station of Chengguan Town, luckily the police station was fairly large, so Ye Fan’s over a hundred soldiers could temporarily reside there.

Everyone was waiting for Ye Fan to arrive, and whenever Ye Fan passed by a room, the soldiers inside would stand up and salute.

"Alright, let’s eat."

Upon seeing the mutant beast meat on the table, Ye Fan thought for a moment and called the logistics support team leader, Huang Jian.

"Send someone to deliver five pounds of mutant beast meat to my parents, sister, and Su Xing and Su Chang, but make sure it’s only for them, no one else."

"Understood! I’ll go right away!"

Huang Jian personally carried the mutant beast meat over to the grand restaurant.

The survivors along the way couldn’t help but drool at the aroma.

Ye Fan didn’t treat them harshly, as the collected rice, noodles, grain, and vegetables were used for their intended purposes, but meat was relatively precious in the post-apocalyptic era.

This item had a relatively short storage time, so there wasn’t much to distribute to each person.

Hearing this aroma, many people’s stomachs couldn’t help but growl.

"Officer, what kind of meat is this? It smells so good."

"This is a gift from our officer to his parents."

Huang Jian answered shortly and quickly went upstairs in the grand restaurant.

In the private room, the Su Family Sisters had already prepared a meal for Ye Jian Country’s family of three, as per Ye Fan’s rules, the Su Family Sisters could eat with the parents.

Huang Jian knocked on the door and delivered the meat inside.

"Our officer asked me to deliver this."

After saying this, Huang Jian put the meat down, saluted, and turned to leave.

Among the four women and one elderly man, they usually didn’t eat much meat, but after trying a bite, everyone’s eyes lit up.

"This meat is truly delicious!"

"Yes, it’s warm in the stomach and so comfortable."

"I feel like I’ve gained strength from eating this."

"I’ve run this restaurant for so long, I’ve never tasted such delicious meat, where did Brother Ye get it from?"

After eating a few bites, Ye Jian Country glanced outside.

Ye Luo blinked, she knew her father well, he was likely thinking of giving some to the relatives and friends outside.

She simply stood up and closed the door, blocking the view from peeping into the room from outside.

"Dad, my brother gave you something so good, don’t act as the good guy all the time. If you don’t like eating it, you should let your daughter have it. I’m still growing, not afraid of becoming a little chubby."

Xu Lizhen, who usually complied with her husband, also couldn’t resist speaking up: "Old man, these past few days we were grinding below, making tofu tirelessly, and no one came to help us. Now that our son has made something of himself, look at the relatives’ faces, practically glued to you, just wanting to get more supplies, to find a good job. Don’t be overly kind and cause trouble for our son."

Ye Jian Country blushed as his wife and children spoke: "I didn’t mean it that way...."

"Come on, I know you too well, do you think they’re really interested in you? They’re all after our son, although our son is an officer now. I’ve noticed soldiers coming to him all the time these days. Doesn’t he have superiors? If you want your son to make mistakes, then agree to everything others say."

Hearing this, Ye Jian Country’s expression also turned serious.

Living in society, dealing with emotions and relationships was inevitable, Ye Jian Country was no exception.

But he had a limit, which was not to let his son make mistakes.

As an old father, he still had a preference for sons over daughters, his future and hope rested almost entirely on his son.

Everything else could be discussed; letting his son make even a minor mistake was not allowed.

"Let’s not bother with them, let’s just eat!"

Ye Jian Country’s heart started to harden, but when it came to eating the meat, he still didn’t eat much and shared most with his wife and children; the Su Family Sisters ate more than he did.

Lastly, he even sent Ye Luo to the police station to check, lest Ye Fan gave them all the good meat and had none left for himself.

But he was rebuffed by a single sentence from Ye Luo.

"Dad, stop worrying unnecessarily, my brother isn’t very good at finding a girlfriend, even if the five of us combined ate everything, it wouldn’t matter. He’s likely already full by now."

No one knows a child better than their father, Ye Jian Country thought for a bit: "That’s probably true."

********

But this time they really misunderstood Ye Fan, who, after eating just three pounds of meat, was forced to leave the table because the production units had arrived.

This time, Ye Fan had them come by armored vehicle, driving from afar.

Standing at the police station entrance, Ye Fan felt a surge of strength throughout his body; the mutant beast meat was indeed a treasure, he felt as if he had become somewhat stronger.

According to reactions from the Red Alert Soldiers, they generally remarked feeling comfortable and energized after eating this, so Ye Fan had already decided that this should not be sold externally.

It seems that after taking down Chengguan Town, he still needs to go back to Lingshui and level the zoo there.

While contemplating, the rumbling sound of wheels began, as the assault armored vehicle arrived.

A crowd of people leaned out of the grand restaurant windows to watch, faint cheers could be heard, as more troops had come to pledge allegiance to Officer Ye Fan, increasing their sense of security.

The armored vehicle came right up to the police station, where soldiers began to disembark one by one.

There were four logistical support groups, four medical soldiers, including a female soldier.

Currently, only Xiao Jing was the sole female soldier, sometimes feeling inevitably lonely and inconvenienced; now with two female soldiers, they could accompany and support each other.

One sniper, three engineers.

One armored vehicle driver, one heavy machine gunner of the armored vehicle.

Additionally, there were two rocket launcher warriors, whose arrival from the vehicle elicited more cheers from the grand restaurant side.

The soldiers quickly lined up in formation after disembarking, and interestingly, the female soldier, whose construction cost was only 200 gold, stood at the very front.

A charming girl with short hair, her big eyes lively and brimming with youthfulness.

With a valiant demeanor, she stood at attention and saluted!

"Medical soldier He Xiaoting reporting to the officer! We have already received the command and more troops are on their way!"

This was what Ye Fan instructed her to say, laying the groundwork for the arrival of more troops, resulting in another round of excited discussions among the survivors.

Ye Fan returned the salute, his gaze settling on the two rocket launcher warriors and the three engineers.

In a voice only those nearby could hear, Ye Fan spoke.

"You guys... do you live up to your worth? Why are you hiding in the back?"

The soldiers looked at each other, feeling somewhat wronged.

One engineer boldly spoke: "Officer, we were following your instructions...."

"Alright, alright, enough of that. State your names."

"Engineer Wang Shun reporting to the officer!"

"Engineer Han Jing reporting to the officer!"

"Engineer Luo Jiaxin reporting to the officer!"

"Sniper Zhao Ming reporting to the officer!"

"Rocket launcher warrior Qin Yu reporting to the officer!"

"Armored car driver Han Haoyu reporting to the officer!"

"Armored car heavy machine gunner Zhang Xiaoyu reporting... ."

After all units completed their introductions, Ye Fan immediately ordered them to go in for a meal.

Meanwhile, he himself got onto the armored car.

Machine gunner Zhang Xiaoyu and armored car driver Han Haoyu introduced the vehicle to Ye Fan.

This vehicle weighs eighteen tons, uses composite armor, and is equipped with a 12.7mm caliber heavy machine gun.

It holds sixteen crew members, with four tires on each side of the body.

The heavy machine gun comes with 3000 rounds, more than the initially equipped armed mining vehicle.

Ye Fan’s Fierce Dragon Vehicle is also bulletproof, but its bulletproof effectiveness can’t compare to this armored car, which is effectively a mobile fortress.

If it wasn’t so late today, Ye Fan would’ve wanted this vehicle to start killing zombies immediately.

It seems like he’ll have to wait until tomorrow morning to take action.

Originally planning to go back to sleep, Gao Dongliang came running out.

"Ye Fan, I can’t do it anymore."

"Why?"

"I contacted the survivors, said I wanted to trade resources for their gold, silver, and jewels, and they called me an idiot, asking where I was from. They were rushing to trade with me, asking about my leader? Who I belong to? How could I respond?"

Gao Dongliang was a bit overwhelmed: "Ye Fan, I’ve embarrassed myself for you, why do you want useless gold and jewels? Are you sure you’re not a dragon reincarnated?"
