Chapter 453 Think about the worst in everything and be fully prepared
Li Yu saw Xiaoshi changing into a set of clothes issued by the base, which was a pink sportswear.
The material is very good and there are very few embellishments. Xiaoshi looks full of youthful vitality after wearing it.
When the apocalypse first broke out, Li Yu and the people in the base bought these clothes frantically for zero dollars.
I have stocked up on some, including sportswear, various jackets, jackets, etc.
As for the clothes that Xiaoshi originally wore, they had been torn to pieces and changed beyond recognition when she was in exile.
Li Yu took one look and then withdrew his gaze, and then walked towards the Wengcheng in the outer city with Xiao Shi.
.......
On the other side, Captain Luo and the others waited in the urn for nearly half an hour.
Although Captain Luo was very anxious at the moment, he was on someone else's territory after all, not to mention someone else had saved him.
I'm too embarrassed to urge you.
I could only talk to Uncle Li Yu. Uncle Li Yu was also a wonderful person. During the chats, he asked Captain Luo clearly about the situation of their headquarters and base.
Captain Luo didn't realize that his second uncle was trying to trick him. Most of his energy was thinking about why Ye Shishi hadn't come out yet. From time to time, he raised his head and looked at the gate on the other side of the barbican.
He didn't pay attention, and he just answered the question that his second uncle asked him just now.
When people are distracted, the answer will be true most of the time.
The second uncle was not embarrassed at all and continued chatting with Captain Luo.
The second uncle said: "You said this apocalypse is really too unbearable. How did you survive last year's cold winter?"
When Captain Luo heard his second uncle talking about this, his mood suddenly dropped and he said: "When it was cold last year, many trees died and the crops died. Alas, if it hadn't been so cold, our food wouldn't have been so big.
The problem.
There wouldn’t be so many people dying.”
When the second uncle heard this, it seemed that they were not having a good time.
Then he changed the subject and said, "It's okay. We have found food. By the way, how do you plan to use this food next?"
Captain Luo said: "Originally, we were unable to rescue those civilians due to food problems. According to Mr. Ye's instructions, everything is to serve the people. We may distribute some to civilians at that time."
The second uncle remained calm and asked, seemingly unintentionally: "How many people are there?"
"That's too many, there are thousands of people around the headquarters.
Due to the influence of the weather, a lot of food became moldy and smelly during last year's hot weather. The food we searched for was rarely edible. Many people are still hungry, and more people have starved to death.
..." Captain Luo said.
The second uncle expressed strong praise and recognition for their nobility, but he was a little worried in his heart and directly distributed grain to help the common people.
This method, alas.
There seems to be something wrong. Once you give food to others unconditionally and develop a habit, it will easily lead to riots.
Whether it is the end of the world or before the end of the world, there are many benefits to people and they should be given widely.
I'm afraid of suffering from scarcity and inequality.
The second uncle saw Captain Luo sighing and opened his mouth, but said nothing in the end.
Because he knows that it is useless to talk about it. Only when he has suffered some losses and experienced painful lessons can he be able to remember them.
The Da Zhangshu Base has not learned a lesson, but they have seen similar cases.
Isn't this the reason why Jiefang City collapsed?
.....
The two of them continued chatting, and suddenly Captain Luo suddenly stood up.
I saw it in the gate of Wengcheng, slowly opening.
A pink shadow came over.
This is, this is a little poem!
Captain Luo's face was full of excitement, it was her, it was indeed her.
Captain Luo often went to Ye's hometown and watched Xiaoshi grow up. He treated Xiaoshi as his niece.
Therefore, after learning about this mission, he took the lead in proposing that he would lead a team to search for it.
One is to find grain reserves and solve the food problem, and the other is that he really wants to find Xiao Shi.
"Uncle Luo." Xiao Shi ran and ran in front of Captain Luo.
Then she saw the wound bandaged by Captain Luo, and her eyes turned red again after she had just regained her composure: "Uncle Luo, your injury..."
Seeing the worry in Xiao Shi's eyes, Captain Luo stretched his body pretending to be fine and said, "It's okay, Xiao Shi. How are you doing this past year?"
It's okay not to say this. When Ye Shishi said this, the tears she had managed to hold back suddenly fell: "It was very difficult before, but Mr. Li saved me later.
After entering the Dazhangshu Base, my life was pretty good.”
Xiaoshi hadn't cried for a long time. She seemed to want Captain Luo not to worry. She quickly wiped away her tears and said, "I'm fine, Uncle Luo. Is my grandpa okay?"
Captain Luo took a breath and said: "Mr. Ye's health was not good to begin with. Some of the people who finally gathered together died because of the cold winter last year.
Because of this, Mr. Ye's health became even worse.
However, before we came out, Mr. Ye's health suddenly improved a lot.
My overall condition seems to be much better.”
Xiaoshi said worriedly: "Grandpa always loves to worry. Alas, he still stays up late at such an old age and doesn't listen to what he said several times..."
Captain Luo sighed and said nothing.
Immediately, he seemed to remember something and said to Xiao Shi: "Xiao Shi, our mission on this trip, in addition to finding the food reserves, is to find you and take you back. You..."
Captain Luo glanced at Li Yu but didn't say the second half of the sentence.
Although it was only a brief contact and I only entered this outer city to take a look, but to be honest, the headquarters in Guangdong Province is not as good as other people's outer cities.
What's more, he has never been to the inner city, and he just observed Xiao Shi and found that although her face was darker and fatter,
But I also look much healthier than before, when I was thin and not junky.
Judging from Xiaoshi's condition, Xiaoshi should be doing well.
Although Captain Luo hadn't finished speaking yet, Xiao Shi had already understood what he meant.
Xiaoshi turned her head, glanced at Li Yu, and wanted to tell her to follow Captain Luo back. After all, she still had her only relative there.
But he told Li Yu directly in front of him that he wanted to leave.
It didn't feel very good. The base was so kind to her, but she just walked away. It felt like she had no feelings for the base.
Just when she was struggling and didn't know how to speak.
Li Yu said softly: "If you want to go back, go back, after all, they are your relatives.
But if you encounter problems and want to come back at any time, the door of the base is open for you."
Hearing Li Yu's words, Xiaoshi felt moved in her heart for a moment: "I, I, I,,, thank you, Brother Yu. If it weren't for you, I would have froze to death and starved to death outside."
Li Yu said with a smile: "Don't worry, go back with peace of mind. If you want to come back, then come back."
In Li Yu's mind, he didn't have so much entanglement. No matter whether Xiaoshi left or not, there would be no harm to the base.
Since she wants to go back to find her grandfather, it is reasonable, and Li Yu can understand it. Besides, when she goes back, with her there, the alliance with Mr. Ye will be stronger.
So Li Yu also said some kind words, saying that he could come back whenever he wanted and send Buddha to the west, which made Xiao Shi think about the goodness of the base even more.
By then, cooperative communication will become easier and more enjoyable.
Seeing their old friends reunited, Li Yu must have something to say, so he arranged the remaining things to be done.
Then he said to his second uncle: "Second uncle, it's dark now. I'll explain to He Chao later and arrange for them to live in the outer city."
The second uncle nodded and said, "Okay."
Then he said to Captain Luo: "Lao Luo, you and your team members will follow me later and I will make arrangements for you."
Li Yu continued: "Then let's distribute the grain first. We just asked them to weigh it in the weighbridge.
There are 22 vehicles in total, each weighing 45 tons. We will transport our part back inside first.
Of the remaining 11 cars, five of them were brought over by you and left there. You will need to drive over to pick up the rest when the time comes."
Captain Luo gave a thumbs up and said: "Mr. Li is very generous, but we probably won't be able to transport that much this time, and can only drive three cars back.
Let’s pick up the rest when we come back next time.”
Li Yu nodded and said, "Okay, let's talk, then I'll go in first. Second uncle, arrange dinner for these brothers tonight, and then take them to the outer city."
There are a lot of things to do today, so I have to trouble my second uncle.
The second uncle waved his hand to show that he understood.
Li Yu was about to leave. Just as he was raising his feet, he suddenly turned back to Xiao Shi and said, "Xiao Shi, if you leave, remember to tell everyone later."
Several figures flashed through Xiaoshi's mind, and she felt reluctance in her heart. Now in the last days, sometimes when we see each other again, we may never see them again.
Captain Luo understood Xiao Shi's thoughts and said: "Xiao Shi, don't be too sad. It's really not possible. Next time I come over to pick up the remaining food, why don't you come with me?"
When Xiaoshi heard it, she immediately thought it was a good idea and said, "Uncle Luo, this is a good suggestion."
Seeing that everything here was almost settled, Li Yu was ready to leave.
He still has big things to do. He had a chat with He Bing before bringing Xiao Shi here.
I have to get up early tomorrow to go to the next city to find that lathe.
The production of bullets is very important.
Bullets will run out sooner or later, and they must be able to produce them themselves.
Strength is the most fundamental guarantee for surviving in the apocalypse.
After bidding farewell to Xiao Shi, Captain Luo and the others, Li Yu found Da Pao, Third Uncle and the others.
On the fence.
In the inner city of the base, with smoke rising from the kitchen, Lai Dongsheng and his wife were cooking.
Li Yu said to his third uncle and others: "Do you think what He Bing said today may be false?"
Such a question instantly made everyone nervous.
However, He Bing and the others are reasonable and have no motive to deceive others.
Lying to others will do no good to He Bing and the others.
The key is, He Bing and the others are going tomorrow too.
Li Yu smiled and said: "The possibility is relatively low, but we still have to follow the usual rules, think the worst in everything, and be fully prepared.
After all, over there, according to what He Bing and the others said, there were still some surviving workers in the lathe factory.
Then we have to consider how to solve the problem that they are unwilling to give us lathes."
The third uncle glanced at Li Yu, hung his head and smoked a cigarette and said, "You have many evil ideas, I will listen to your arrangements."
Li Yu said: "Okay, if this is the case, then let's do this..."
