So he started to plan but the problem was these new people would question his position and rules At this point, he convinced himself that the people weren't that understanding and merciful, and any other person would push him out for power After this, all was done but he still thought only minority who had balls and brains to do it would do it but that minority couldn't be called minority As time passed, more wicked people would arrive, and he was sure of it, so that's why he made sure to not leave any loopholes that could overthrow him and his friends.
He was sure this could happen, as if he thought about it, any intelligent man would let leaders build the system and then take over it, as buying a new house was easier than building a new one, but he put it all aside. It was another day's problem, and dismissing his thoughts, He took a piece of paper and started to take notes.
Now that there were 24 people—10 were male and the rest were female and kids—he needed to distribute work properly
So he had already established departments
The collectors (basically laborers ), the craftsmen, the keepers ( storage department) last but not least, the fighters
hruday, thought, "this was too simple and kind of didn't make sense to keep. Let's change it, so I need to name each group without giving a sense of hierarchy or making them sound dislikable
So he scribbled, How about craftsmen collectives, where everyone devoted to making will be there under one house, one department, and they could subdivide the department if the population increased too much?
Then one for medics, one for maintenance and protection, one for fighting and exploring, and the last one is the mercenary department, where members could be freelancers "then this wouldn't sound bad", "perfect", then managers, "ok."
"Names, huh?... Ok, this is it," he scribbled down neatly

Hruday hesitated on how to explain the whole food distribution concept. His priorities were fighters first or workers first, depending on the situation, then children and women, and then the elderly. This was because, in the event of a zombie attack, kids and the elderly wouldn't stand a chance. The only people to depend on were adults, who would defend.
If they didn't have the energy to fight, everything would collapse. So, adults first, which may seem controversial or cruel to explain, and then kids next because the elderly had already lived longer and kids were the future.

With that, hruday wrote a couple of copies of explanation books and then gathered everyone near the water tank that was now being tuned into the grass bed It was dark and he didn't know if it was the right time to discuss or not He had a lot of worries but all those worries were suppressed because there was one dominant thought: I needed to be fast enough so that I could survive even in the worst-case scenario.
Now he had to choose members openly but the founding members were his friends and brother He didn't want to include Troy, but he did
He discussed in open when he had almost investigated and discussed everything with his friends and Mark. The open discussion didn't go smoothly, especially about food There were some questions and resistance, but after being convinced by hruday and Mark, it all worked out
Then he asked everyone to discuss the rules and explained that everyone would and should always have 3–7 days worth of food with them, and the rest would be stored.
Although he had prepared to answer, it was really challenging to convince to some who mentioned how they were going to horde all the food and why this wasn't an election system like in the old world.
hruday was a little hesitant but then said bluntly how he wants the power so that what happened in the old world wouldn't happen: greedy lazy people taking big positions to slowly leach money off people He had successfully shut the guy who questioned, but he noted that he need to monitor this guy, making sure he wouldn't get leader position until he is cleared of his suspicion
People who usually question this even though he has convinced them of his intention are people with Bad intention
He welcomed new ideas while discussing and addressed others ideas He was actually following some psychological technique to impress people, even if other ideas was bad He would encourage and say to them to submit "ways to improve our base box", which was going to be located in the mercenary department, unlike concern and issue boxes, which were planned to be placed everywhere He also wanted to mention the individual contribution system but decided to keep it hidden
he discussed openly the selection of branch president and managers, which all went smoothly with his friends and everyone's help
with that people got busy and he openly asked if their group could rest, and people didn't give it a second thought and said that they weren't that cruel He also reminded everyone to mask their mouths before sleeping. With that, his apartment was filled with 24 people and he slept without any worries, feeling accomplished
