Chapter 155 Preparing for a New Base

Chapter 155 Preparing for a New Base

That night, Xiong Gui did not go to Yan Xiaomi's house, but lived in the cave with his parents, experiencing their life in the past few years.

The cave covers an area of ​​more than 400 square meters, and the family is the unit, with small compartments separated by old felt cloth along the cave wall.

There are only two elderly people in Xiong Gui's house, Sa Renna and Battelle (Xiong Gui's adoptive father), and the cubicle occupies less than five square meters. Except for the sundries piled up in the corner, it is covered with dry grass and old blankets, which can accommodate two people lying flat. floor covering.

The space was not that big, but now there is a tall and strong man who is about eight meters tall, and the three of them can only squeeze sideways on the floor.

Although the two old people squeezed in desperately, trying to make enough space for their son to sleep, Xiong Gui, who was sleeping outside, still had a small half of his body lying on the dry ground.

On the grassland at the end of October, the lowest temperature at night is only about ten degrees. The cold air on the ground invades the body through a thin layer of floor coverings, making people feel very cold.

The two old men finally relaxed their long-term tense spirits because of their son's return. They ate their first full meal in three years. After talking to him for a while, they couldn't help but fell asleep from fatigue.

Xiong Gui looked at his sleeping parents who were huddling together to keep warm, and gently covered them with the blankets he had put on, and got up and walked to the burning fire in the middle of the cave to warm himself up.

In order to prevent mutated beasts from attacking at night, the simple gate made of several large wooden boards is closed after dark, and the entire cave is only ventilated through the palm-width gap above and below the gate.

At the moment, the cave is full of people, and all kinds of body odors plus the smell of burning dried cow dung cannot be released due to poor ventilation for a long time, making Xiong Gui, who has just moved in for the first time, almost suffocate.

Across the firelight, he cast his gaze to the cubicle of the Gemma family living opposite the fire.

And Gemma, grandma said, they got sick several times, and it was because Gemma gave her food to the two old people and took good care of them that they survived.

Not to mention Gemma's care for her parents over the years, the two grew up together as childhood sweethearts. From the bottom of her heart, Xiong Gui actually likes Gemma, otherwise she wouldn't have had a family for so many years, but she was too worried Too much, thinking too much, that's why I kept escaping from her love.

In the future, he must treat her even better, so as to live up to Gemma's love and waiting for more than ten years.

Xiong Gui recalled seeing these survivors in the cave tonight, each of them ate a two-finger-wide barbeque bar and drank only a yellowish liquid from the bottom of a cup.

He was so guilty that he wanted to slap himself twice, why didn't he come back earlier, otherwise his elderly parents and his beloved girl wouldn't have such a difficult life.

The soldiers at the Rising Sun Base outside the cave live in special marching tents, which cannot be torn apart easily even if the prairie wolves come, and sleep on well-designed cold-proof marching beds, not to mention food, even when they are away from home. The living conditions are much better than these people in the cave.

At dawn the next day, Xiong Gui, who hadn't slept all night, went to Yan Xiaomi, borrowed a lot of food and quilts from her, and distributed them to the herdsmen in the cave.

Then when everyone gathered for breakfast, he announced his decision to build a new base on the grassland.

The herdsmen in the cave ate the sorghum buns exuding the fragrance of pasta, and touched the thick and soft quilts, as if they had hope for a new life in the future. After hearing this, they all looked at Xiong Gui intently, waiting for his specific plan.

Xiong Gui told everyone frankly about his cooperation plan with Yan Xiaomi. After all, it is impossible for others to help them unconditionally. If you want to live a stable life with ample food and clothing, you have to work hard to create it with your own hands.

But at the same time, it also stated that Yan Xiaomi and everyone at the Rising Sun Base will help them build a house in the early stage and plant grain and pasture for this winter. These are counted as borrowings and will be deducted from the [-]% harvest in the future.

For the herdsmen, who are poor and white, who have eaten their last meal but have not finished their meal, and are worrying about how to survive the long winter, this is simply a great thing.

Not to mention Yan Xiaomi's [-]% of the future harvest, even if they are only given a full meal every day, they will rush to do it.

All the herdsmen actively expressed their support for Xiong Gui's plan, and unanimously elected him as the head of the new base, and everyone unconditionally obeyed his command and arrangements.

Sarenna and Battelle were so happy from ear to ear. When their son came back, they had something to rely on for their old age. Gemma’s years of waiting had paid off, and she could live a stable life with the herdsmen who often helped them. alright.

The granary plan was proposed by Yan Xiaomi, and she had reached a cooperation agreement with Xiong Gui before. Since it was her own business, it would not be good to bother the soldiers of Rising Sun Base all the time. She directly proposed to Mu Ye and Wu Yu to hire [-] soldiers. Soldiers help and are paid very generously.

For Yu Muye and Wu Yu, one is a brother for many years, and the other is his girlfriend, who should have helped, so naturally they would not refuse.

When the soldiers came out to do missions, the base had already paid them with salary, but now they had an extra income, and they were very happy in their hearts.

After breakfast, Xiong Gui went to Yan Xiaomi's house to meet her. Under the witness of Mu Ye, Wu Yu and Yan Liang, they signed a cooperation agreement, and then discussed the specific implementation plan.

If you want to turn the desolate prairie into the largest granary and pasture in the country, you need a large number of people to work. The dozens of people in the cave now are definitely not enough.

Moreover, the survivors on the grassland are now short of food and clothing, and it seems that it is difficult to survive the winter. The first thing to solve at present is to gather people together, and then solve their most basic food and safety problems.

After this winter, take good care of your body, and when the weather is warmer next year, you can just do a big job.

Seeing that there will be another twenty days or so before entering the long cold winter season, in order to save time, Yan Xiaomi and Xiong Gui decided to divide the three tasks of building a base, growing food and grass, and finding survivors on the grassland into three groups. road at the same time.

Ertu and a few strong men often went out hunting, knowing where there were survivors, Mu Ye sent three small teams of fighters, armed with weapons and driving five large trucks, to find people with them.

Based on the [-]D pre-apocalyptic map in the computer, Wu Yu initially drew out a few surrounding places suitable for building bases, and then, together with Mu Ye, Xiong Gui and Yanliang, drove people to investigate the actual situation.

For Yan Xiaomi, as long as there is soil to grow food and grass, she took dozens of survivors in the cave, as well as soldiers who hadn't gone on missions, to a large open flat land.

The dozen or so cattle and sheep raised by the herdsmen in another cave are skinny and skinny because they often don't have enough to eat.

Moreover, the dozens of elephants in her family consume a lot of grass, and she still has a lot of food for people to eat, so Yan Xiaomi decided to plant mutated grass first.

 The brain said, I can do it my way, but the body said, no, you can’t. After only a few days of typing, because of sitting for a long time, I developed lower limb edema, abdominal pain and low back pain...

  Then, a few days ago, I just said to try to update twice a day, but I slapped my face again. I didn’t update yesterday because of physical discomfort, and I may have to update once a day in the next few days. Continuous update is really my last stubbornness.

  If you feel that the update is slow, please take care of it and watch it again. I really can't live up to my health, so I can only apologize.
