Outside the dical room, a large crowd had gathered, mostly consisting of Song Min's sisters.
Previously, Song Min's sisters in Weng City had already entered the base, led by Second Uncle along with Li Zhengping, Li Haoran, and others.
After hearing Li Yuan's words, before Li Yu could speak, he heard a few young girls beside him say: "Try mine."
"Take mine."
"Take mine, I have Type A blood."
...
Li Yu knew his own blood type, Type O, also known as universal donor blood, which can be used to aid other blood types.
But it can only be used in small amounts. The best option is to use Type A blood.
Seeing everyone eagerly wanting to donate blood, Li Yuan calmly said, "Not just any blood type will do, Type A blood is best, and we might need to draw quite a bit. It's best if several people with Type A blood co forward."
"Do you know your own blood type?" Li Yuan asked finally.
"! Take mine," said Song Qi.
Li Yu glanced at Song Qi. Though he and Song Min were siblings, having the sa blood type was not necessarily linked to being biologically related, but it was possible.
"Okay, any more people with Type A blood?" Li Yuan asked again. Song Min had been injured for a while now, and though initially bandaged, the wounds later worsened, leading to severe blood loss. Relying on one person for blood was too much; a single person definitely couldn't handle it.
"I, I think I have Type A blood," said the always optimistic and cheerful little girl.
"Alright, you two co in," Li Yuan said sternly, showing a serious deanor far removed from his usual gentle and shy presence.
Lai Jiaqi drew blood from the two, taking a few minutes to verify it was Type A.
Even though they both said they had Type A blood, testing it was very necessary; if one person had rembered incorrectly, and a transfusion was done, it would be disastrous for the recipient.
Song Qi gave about 600cc while the little girl gave about 400cc, which was just about enough.
After the transfusion, seeing Song Qi's lips slightly pale, Li Yu imdiately asked Li Zhengping to bring so milk and eggs to nourish him.
The optimistic little girl also looked pale, apparently also suffering.
Since the apocalypse, everyone had been trying to survive, with food and drink far lesser than before.
Nutrition wasn't considered anymore because even getting full was a major issue.
In a state of nutritional deficiency, having several hundred cc of blood drawn without fainting was quite good already. Li Yu imdiately gave them the freshly squeezed milk from yesterday.
He then let them rest for a while, planning to share so milk and nourishing foods with them every day for the next few days.
Seeing these people still waiting outside the dical room, Li Yu felt touched, realizing that Song Min truly had the support of her sisters.
Seeing that they were still gathered around, always concerned about Song Min's condition.
Li Yu persuaded them to rest first, but they refused to leave.
Finally, when Li Yuan ca out and told everyone, "There's no longer any great danger, she's stabilized now. We just have to wait for the wounds to heal."
Hearing Li Yuan's words, everyone was visibly delighted.
Li Yu took the opportunity to say, "Then everyone should go back and rest for now!"
Only then did these people agree to rest as instructed.
It was still those rows of buildings built before, most of which were still empty. Although workers like Ding Jiu and people like Dapao had moved in, there were still mostly vacant rooms.
These buildings, although simply decorated, had basic showers and sanitation. In the apocalyptic world, it was a luxury to have a safe place where you didn't have to worry about a zombie appearing in front of you while you were sleeping. Being able to take a hot shower, have a bed, and a blanket was already incredibly luxurious.
For these young girls who had suffered various hardships outside and were constantly terrified, living al to al, it felt like they had suddenly moved from hell to heaven.
Li Yu looked at these people with a faint warm smile on his face, but at the sa ti he was calculating in his heart:
There were already nearly 70 people in the base, and more than half of them were Li Yu's direct relatives, such as his parents and siblings, cousins, etc.
Additionally, there were Lai Dongsheng's family of four, the siblings Yang Tianlong and Yang Xiaozhu, Zhao Dapao, and so others;
Plus, the construction workers like Ding Jiu and their families whom he had saved.
Next were Song Min and Teacher Liu and others.
For Li Yu, the first rule of survival in the apocalypse was not to trust anyone. He had sowhat more trust in his family and relatives.
But for others, his trust level wasn't very high.
In this apocalyptic world, unlike peaceful tis, the way to manage subordinates had changed. It used to be that as long as you could solve problems and had the ability, it didn't matter if you were loyal or had a good character.
For Li Yu, anyone he accepted had to rank first in character and loyalty! Those with poor character, too much ambition, or insufficient loyalty, no matter how capable, would not be dealt with by Li Yu.
Even in tis of war, Li Yu was not a great man, he didn't have great ideals to inspire people to unify, so he had to bind them through two other ways.
First, on a material level: Binding through interests. These people had seen the cruelty and hardship outside, and suddenly saw harmony in the base and enjoyed equal food. Plus, external crises drove internal stability.
Second, on a spiritual level: By integrating them into the base and providing so care, he enhanced their loyalty to the base.
Humans have left and right brains, left being rational and right being emotional. He attacked the left brain, persuading rationally, and the right brain, by touching emotionally.
These people brought in from outside were largely connected through Li Yu, primarily having been saved by him.
In addition, all weapons were now controlled by Li Yu, and food was controlled by his family; the atmosphere in the base was still harmonious.
If there was any disturbance, or any of the rescued people showed ingratitude, Li Yu wouldn't hesitate to kill them.
The girls who had just co in, took the daily items distributed to them and curiously looked around.
Yang Xiaozhu and her aunt took them to the residential areas, while Song Qi and another girl waited at the dical room's door, hoping Song Min would wake up.
As ti passed, Li Tie and others who had cleaned up the battlefield also drove back.
This ti they had taken three new-energy electric vehicles out, and when they ca back, they brought back five vehicles.
Hearing that Song Min was no longer in great danger, these newly arrived girls all gave grateful looks to Li Yu and others, who had been continuously helping them.
Because Li Yu had already spoken through the walkie-talkie with people at the base before entering, thus when they saw Song Min and others, they weren't too surprised.
Especially since every ti Li Yu and others went out and encountered sothing, they would report back to the base about people like Song Min, so they roughly knew about their existence.
Li Yu's family and people like Ding Jiu who joined later also expressed so friendly gestures, making these newcors feel that this place was completely different from the outside world.
