Ice Age Apocalypse: I've Stockpiled Billions of Resources

The people in Ye Family Prison did not suffer any mistreatment and lived the same prisoner life as before the catastrophe.

To be precise, life in this Ye family prison is better than in the previous prison.

Every meal was delicious, and they enjoyed their meals very much.

After the meal, everyone went out to work, which was ten hours a day.

Ten hours is not harsh at all. Before the catastrophe, it was normal for people in China to work twelve hours a day.

The times are from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM and from 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM, with two hours for lunch in between.

I heard that the working hours in the Ye family's underground city are eight hours a day, sometimes only five or six hours, and there is plenty of rest time.

This situation is rare even in the Liu family. The upper echelons of the Liu family enjoy themselves quite a bit, eating delicious food and having fun every day, living a life of luxury.

But ordinary people don't get this treatment. Apart from Liu Xinghuo, the other ten people are all mercenaries of the Liu family and don't receive any special treatment.

They were just a little better off than the lower-class members of the Liu family; they didn't have to work sixteen hours a day.

Their regular training and work also take up to ten hours a day.

Occasionally, when something happened there, Liu Hui and several of the Liu family's mercenaries had to risk their lives to go there.

After settling in the Ye family's underground city, they felt that life was very good. They didn't have to worry about danger and were well-fed and watered every day.

Liu Xinghuo and his ten colleagues had just finished their work and were waiting for lunch.

The lunchboxes were passed down one by one from under the door; there were ten lunchboxes in total.

After passing the lunchboxes, they waited for the soup.

Because the rice is relatively dry, there's always soup with the meal, which is something the Ye family does very well.

There was no soup today, but they gave us ten boxes of iced tea.

The ten members of the Liu family felt a pang of regret, believing that the soup tasted better than the iced tea.

They didn't dare to challenge anyone, since they were still prisoners of others, and if someone became unhappy, they might lose their lives.

The lunchbox was opened and a fragrant aroma wafted out. Inside was a glistening, brightly colored braised pork belly.

The rice grains are plump and distinct.

"delicious."

Liu Xinghuo had none of the airs of a wealthy family, eating a piece of rice and a piece of braised pork.

As he ate the braised pork, he wasn't quite satisfied, so he poured the braised pork broth over his rice.

Many people are following Liu Xinghuo's example and pour the braised pork broth over their rice.

They felt the food was too greasy, so they ate a bite of kimchi to cleanse their palate.

The kimchi is crispy and spicy, making it very refreshing to eat.

Liu Hui commented, "One thing I have to admit is that the vegetables in Ye Family Underground City are particularly delicious. This kimchi is probably made with fresh cabbage, otherwise it wouldn't be so crispy."

"Compared to braised pork, I prefer spicy kimchi. I've had kimchi from Korea before, but it's nowhere near as good as the kimchi from Ye Family Underground City."

"I think I'm gradually falling in love with this place. Now that the people from the Ye family's underground city are forcing me to leave, I don't want to leave here anymore."

"I haven't finished lunch, but I'm already thinking about dinner, and I'm sure dinner will be delicious."

...

The group ate and chatted.

The ten people ate and lived together, and their relationship grew better and better.

After they finished their meal, they started chatting.

"Liu Xinghuo, get ready, the young lady wants to see you."

Hearing that Liu Xinghuo was going out, the group became worried.

They are satisfied with their current lives and do not want them to change.

"Don't worry, if the Ye family wanted to attack us, they would have done it a long time ago. They wouldn't have waited until now."

While Liu Xinghuo was trying to comfort everyone, she was actually panicking inside.

He was handcuffed and taken into the interrogation room.

Lin Luo and Ye Yue were already waiting for Liu Xinghuo in the interrogation room.

Upon seeing the two, Liu Xinghuo quickly greeted them, saying, "Mr. Lin and Miss Ye, you two are getting more and more beautiful."

Hazuki smiled and said, "You seem to be doing quite well lately; you're getting rounder and rounder."

Liu Xinghuo said with a fawning expression, "It's all because of the good treatment in your prison. I feel that staying here is better than staying at home."

"If that's how you talk, then I'm not going to let you go."

Hazuki said.

Liu Xinghuo exclaimed with delight, "That's great! I didn't want to go back anyway."

"are you serious?"

Ye Yue frowned slightly.

Liu Xinghuo couldn't help but complain:

“I am Liu Shanhai’s cousin, but Liu Shanhai is very strict with his subordinates. For example, if you don’t have the ability, he will not let you take on this position.”

"In your Ye family, you can live a good life as an ordinary person, but not in the Liu family's underground city. There are only upper and lower levels there."

"The lower class is exploited, while the upper class enjoys the benefits. Apart from a few core members of the Liu family, the other upper class members are all going out to explore."

“Exploration is really dangerous. I have several older and younger cousins, and they all died on the island.”

He asked fearfully, "Is Liu Shan still going to take me back?"

Ye Yue shook her head and said, "He doesn't even know if you're dead or not."

Liu Xinghuo quickly knelt down and pleaded:

“Miss Ye, I, Liu Xinghuo, have never knelt down to beg anyone in my life. This time I’m kneeling down to beg you, hoping you will tell Liu Shanhai that I died on the island, so that my parents can live.”

“If he finds out I surrendered to you, he will definitely not let my parents go. You should also try to keep it a secret from the others. We are willing to be reformed properly here.”

Hazuki threatened, "You should know that if you stay in prison, you might be used for human experimentation."

Liu Xinghuo gritted his teeth and said, "There's no way to conduct human experiments, as long as we can have the same food as before."

Lin Luo said, both amused and exasperated, "Is that all you're asking for?"

"That's all."

Liu Xinghuo shared her recent life insights: "I used to think that I needed to have many beautiful women or wealth to realize my life's value. But after this period of time, I realized that I was wrong. I don't need women or wealth. As long as I feel satisfied, that's enough. I quite like my current life. I don't have to risk my life."

Lin Luo laughed and said, "You've become addicted to being in jail."

Liu Xinghuo laughed and said, "The main reason is that it's such a great value for money, as it includes food and accommodation."

After being released from the Ye family prison, Ye Yue asked Lin Luo, "How should we deal with Liu Xinghuo? It seems that saying he's hateful hasn't caused us any trouble. But if we say he's good, he's the leader of the Liu family's forces."

Lin Luo said, "It's fine that Liu Xinghuo performed well, but we are different from the Liu family. Those vicious and unrepentant people are only fit to be used for human experiments. Liu Xinghuo knows how to repent, so we should give him a chance."

"That's what I thought too."

Ye Yue nodded and said, "The last plan failed, and the Liu family has become much quieter. However, given the Liu family's temperament, they will definitely find an opportunity to take revenge. They may be biding their time now. They have even offered to exchange the Wisdom Crystal for the Red Fruit with us."

Liu Shanhai didn't care about Liu Xinghuo's life or death. Liu Xinghuo's two failures made Liu Shanhai hate him to the core.

Ye Yue came to see Liu Xinghuo mainly to see if the Liu family was honest, but she didn't expect to find out that the Liu family planned to stay here for a long time.
