Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 383 I need oil, kerosene, gasoline, cooking oil!

"Hey, you guys should go find Xiao Gao too!"

"Yes, yes, Haitang is just lazing around at home and wants to find something to do. We're worried that if we go too late, someone else will take our spots."

"Hehehe, we really need to hurry. Let's go together!"

"Sure, sure, sure, let's keep each other company!"

Despite saying that, the two families walked faster and faster, as if they were having a race, and eventually they even started jogging.

They hurried along the way. When they arrived at the military base, they found that Xiao Gao's place was already surrounded by a dense crowd.

Xiao Gao stood at the office door, shouting hoarsely, "Don't worry, don't worry, there are plenty of job openings, everyone can register."

Final hiring will depend on everyone's performance. We'll be using a month-end elimination system!

What is a month-end elimination system?

"We conduct monthly evaluations to eliminate those who slack off, violate regulations, or disobey instructions. If everyone completes their tasks to the required standard and quantity, everyone will be promoted!"

Some people were disappointed: "It's not a secure job!"

Xiao Gao promised: "As long as you work hard, your jobs will be very stable!"

Many members around here don't even earn fifteen yuan a year. Believe me, once the news gets out, they'll sign up in a heartbeat and work from morning till night!

That's true. Compared to the production team, the planting base has an eight-hour workday and pays wages at the beginning of each month. The benefits are much better.

"I'll sign up! Comrade Xiao Gao, please help me register. I promise I won't be late or leave early, and I'll take good care of the little seedlings so they can grow strong and healthy!"

"Okay, I'll write it down for you! Who else?"

"Me, me, me! I'm not afraid of hardship or fatigue. I've been farming in my hometown for over ten years, so I have experience!"

Xiao Gao's eyes sparkled as she wrote, nodding, "This is good, this is good, I can be a squad leader..."

As darkness fell, Liang Fanqi's stomach growled loudly with hunger, but he still had no intention of cooking.

Meng Guohao sat blankly in the corner, occasionally raising his hand to touch Meng Hongsheng's forehead, only to find that his temperature was gradually decreasing.

I couldn't help but exclaim, "Sis, you're amazing!"

Meng Peiyu felt nauseous and turned away to vomit upon hearing this.

I didn't feel anything during the surgery, but when I came to my senses and saw small white maggots wriggling in the rotting flesh, I couldn't help but vomit.

With his eyes closed, he threw the rotten flesh out, opened the door, and let the wind blow on him for a while before he gradually recovered.

The image of the wriggling white maggots lingered in her mind. To stop herself from thinking about it, Meng Peiyu closed her eyes and examined the items in the space.

Baskets, benches, old-fashioned mobile phones, resin vases...

The only useful items were a thermometer, catgut, tweezers, and rubbing alcohol. As for food, not a single item was sampled.

Meng Peiyu vomited for a while, feeling a slight pain in her throat. Turning her head, she saw everyone clutching their stomachs and couldn't help but sigh.

I'm going out for a walk!

"Sis, where are you going? I'll go with you!"

"No need, I'll just walk around and see if I can trade some food with the farm manager."

She left, heading towards the manager's office. But the place was eerily quiet; she knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.

"What's going on?" Meng Peiyu muttered, then pushed the door open, revealing six burly men slumped on the table, looking as if they were drunk.

The spicy snails on the table were reduced to a few drops of chili oil, and there was a half-empty wine bottle next to them.

Meng Peiyu raised her hand and poked Cen Weifeng: "Leader Cen, I've come to exchange some rice and flour with you?"

She didn't even have to exert any force, and Cen Weifeng slid limply off the table and fell to the ground. His face was pale, and his posture was bizarre.

Meng Peiyu was startled: "System, what's wrong with him?"

I had a suspicion in my mind, but I didn't dare to admit it.

I carefully checked Cen Weifeng's breath and found none.

When I reached out to touch his heartbeat, it was as still as stagnant water, without the slightest ripple.

The others were also dead beyond any doubt. Although it wasn't her first time killing someone, Meng Peiyu still felt a chill run down her spine.

It wasn't that she was afraid of such a bizarre scene, but rather that she was worried the police would try to shift the blame onto her again.

Her presence here was already illogical. And if...

The consequences could be disastrous.

Meng Peiyu instinctively tried to leave, but as soon as her left foot stepped out of the threshold, she pulled it back.

They frantically searched the room for money and banknotes. They stored all the large sums of money that Cen Weifeng had hidden on his person and in the cabinet into their spatial storage.

There were also nutritional supplements, rice noodles, and other ingredients left in the box; not a single one was left.

Meng Peiyu closed the box and was about to leave when a woman walked in.

His timid and hesitant demeanor clearly indicated that he had been sent down to the countryside.

Meng Peiyu calmly asked, "Who are you, and what do you want with Weifeng?"

The woman was startled, thinking she had stumbled upon some secret, and quickly said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I went to the wrong place!"

As he spoke, he ran away.

Meng Peiyu, however, was unwilling to let her go, and said with a smile, "Weifeng is drunk, could you please help me carry him to bed!"

Without thinking much of it, the woman went into the house with her head down, saying in a low voice, "Don't worry, I didn't see anything!"

"Hmm!" Meng Peiyu laughed and swung a stone at the woman's head.

With a "thud," the woman fell to the ground, and blood spread everywhere.

Meng Peiyu's heart was pounding. She picked up the wine on the table and poured it on the woman and Cen Weifeng.

Then they threw a fire on them.

When fire meets alcohol, it blazes up rapidly. Fearing the fire wouldn't burn bright enough and the corpses would be discovered, Meng Peiyu frantically checked in on the system.

"I need oil—kerosene, gasoline, cooking oil, whatever you like, give me a hundred barrels!"

"Sorry, host, the sign-in rewards are randomly drawn, and you only have ten chances left. Are you sure you want to use them now?"

"Yes, yes, stop arguing. Find me some kindling, pine cones, corn stalks, cow dung, anything will do!"

The system sighed: "Host, what are you doing? You've gotten yourself into a murder case again."

"Stop talking nonsense and give me the stuff right now!"

The system scoffed: "Congratulations, host, you have obtained one hundred bottles of banana oil!"

"What is this? Water from soaking bananas? It's not even juice, what use is it!"

The system held its breath, thinking, "I didn't die that early in my past life, so how can I be so illiterate?"

If it hadn't been for its mistake, mistaking banana oil for paint and shoveling it over, would Meng Peiyu have gotten such a good deal?

Too lazy to remind him, the announcement continued: "Congratulations, host, you have obtained..."

"Wait, aren't baskets flammable?" He said, taking out the baskets and throwing them into the fire before running away.

The leaping flames instantly engulfed the house.

Security personnel scattered elsewhere spotted the fire from afar and rushed over like the wind to put it out.

However, the fire was faster than them, and with the help of the wind, it quickly set the surrounding area ablaze.

The workers living in the makeshift shelters were mostly makeshift shacks made of wooden planks and corn stalks, which were quickly destroyed and turned into thick smoke within minutes.

People rushed out of the house, shouting "Fire!", but they were too weak to put it out.
