The volcano was about to erupt. After Li Yu agreed to Xiao Jun and others' entry into the base, he also thought of some of the personnel currently stationed in Xincheng.
So I found He Chao and asked him about the current situation.
"How many of us are outside now?"
He Chao calculated it, thought for a while and said: "Zhuzi, Deng Ben...and the personnel stationed near the national highway, there are a total of 6 people."
Li Yu thought for a moment and walked out of the room, feeling a wave of heat coming over him.
The cold air in the room went straight outside. Li Yu immediately closed the door, frowned and said, "Let them all come back tomorrow."
At the moment, although there is no news from the Western Conference, there is not much need at the moment.
After all, in such hot weather, people can't stay outside for long, and if they travel long distances, they will have to shed their skin even if they don't die.
He Chao was very happy when he heard what Li Yu said. He had wanted to apply for this with Li Yu two days ago. After all, staying outside in such a hot day was just looking for trouble.
Now they can finally return.
However, in addition to the personnel stationed outside in the outer city, some non-staff personnel have recently moved to the vicinity of the Da Zhangshu base.
In the past, as long as it rained heavily for several days, the Da Zhangshu base would provide them with shelter and wait until the rainstorm was over before allowing them to go out on their own.
This has always been done before.
But this time, there was no precedent for hot weather, so He Chao was also debating whether to mention it or not.
Li Yu saw He Chao still in a daze, so he asked: "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
He Chao hesitated for a moment. According to Li Yu's strictness in personnel management in the past, he couldn't understand Li Yu's ideas. He was a little tangled, but finally decided to talk about it.
"Mr. Li, what about the other non-staff personnel?"
He Chao was a little nervous. He didn't know if asking like this would arouse Li Yu's resentment.
Li Yu recalled this time's high temperature, volcanic eruption, followed by a long period of darkness, zombie tide, and subsequent acid rain.
In this wave, the number of survivors in the world, which was already small, has dropped sharply again.
He has no control over other places, but here in Xincheng, most of the surrounding survivors have cooperated with the base.
Moreover, their recognition of the Da Zhangshu Base is also quite high.
Li Yu hesitated for a while and remembered the second outer city that had just been built. Although it was completed, he had not moved in yet.
Although the environment is better than that of the First Outer City, which has not been built for a long time, at least the rooms on the first floor still have air conditioning.
The non-staff personnel must be saved.
It's just a question of whether other personnel who cooperate with the base should be rescued.
The Da Zhangshu Base cannot be a shelter and provide protection for free.
And when there are so many people, it becomes quite troublesome to manage.
However, those who have stayed in Xincheng for a long time have already known the location of the Da Zhangshu Base.
These people who have cooperated with the Da Zhangshu Base, although the base only has a cooperative relationship with them, they exchange various supplies for food and do not owe them anything, which is fair.
Li Yu has no obligation to save them.
However, from the perspective of the future of the base, it is necessary for the future development of these people. If they all die, who can we cooperate with for the Da Zhangshu Base?
Furthermore, the Da Zhangshu Base provides protection to those who cooperate with the base during some major difficult moments, in order to strengthen their sense of identification with the base.
The influence of Da Zhangshu Base is enhanced through things like this.
There is no need to provide them with food, but to provide them with a shelter. Li Yu thinks this can be done.
So he said to He Chao: "Later, you can sort out the list of people who have cooperated with the base in the past two years and see how many people there are."
In the end, Li Yu decided to let these people come in, collect weapons and vehicles, and then centrally manage the residential buildings in the second outer city. There should be no problem in sending people to manage them.
He Chao looked at Li Yu with some surprise, and listened to Xian Zhi's suggestion. It seemed that Li always wanted those who cooperated with the base to come in.
There have been instances like this before. During the last heavy rain, hundreds of people came in.
"Go and count the number of people. Go out tomorrow and spread the news." Li Yu said.
He Chao couldn't understand Li Yu anymore. In the past, the Li Yu he saw was cold-blooded and decisive in killing. Although he was very friendly to the people in the base, he never had much compassion for people outside the base.
Although today's high temperature is much higher than last year's high temperature, it is not impossible to survive.
Naturally, he didn't know that the high temperature was just an appetizer, and that the volcanic eruption, continuous darkness, acid rain, and zombie waves would be the highlight.
How many people can survive with this combination of punches is unknown.
And when that time comes, people outside the base will have no chance to come if they want to seek asylum.
Li Yu will not open the door again.
After the volcano erupted, the world fell into darkness. With so many zombies around, Li Yu could no longer take the risk and open the door.
What to do if we are overwhelmed by the zombie wave.
Li Yu added: "Spread the news as widely as possible, there are only three days. After three days, the base will not accept anyone. In addition, personnel must be carefully selected. We have been cooperating with outsiders for so long. I really want to
Those who want to cooperate with us have already cooperated with us.
Therefore, any team that has not appeared on the cooperation list will not be allowed to come in.
The base is not a nursing home and has no obligation to protect them."
He Chao agreed with what Li Yu said. The Dazhangshu Base has never been the Notre Dame Church. You have not contributed to me, so why should I save you.
Let them come in. Among other things, the electricity consumed is also a cost.
So He Chao said: "Understood, I will pull out the list right now. After counting, who should I hand it over to?"
"Give it to my second uncle. When the time comes, show him the list and let him check it."
He Chao nodded and went back to look through the list.
In less than ten minutes, He Chao took the list and reconciled it with his second uncle.
This list is recorded in duplicate.
Not only is He Chao there to make statistics, but the second uncle also has a copy. Comparing the two copies, there will be no mistakes.
The second uncle who was in the inner city saw He Chao coming over with a notebook.
Putting down the wood in his hand, he also has some small hobbies. When he has free time, he likes to carve some small wood sculptures. The children really like this thing he carved.
"What's the matter?" asked the second uncle.
He Chao told his second uncle what Li Yu had said to him.
The second uncle pondered for a while, but he did not expect that Li Yu would make such a decision.
It’s not that we can’t bring in people who cooperate with the base, I just feel that at the moment, there doesn’t seem to be much need.
After all, it's just extremely high temperatures right now.
But he believed in Li Yu. Many of the decisions Li Yu made often had some foresight, and sometimes he couldn't understand it, but it was only after the fact that he realized that Li Yu's decision was correct.
It doesn't matter if they are brought in, it just provides a space and confiscates their weapons. Even if there are some problems, it will not cause any trouble.
So he also took out the statistical table in his hand and compared it one by one with the one in He Chao's hand.
Once people have power, it is easy for corruption to breed, so we can only regulate this through various methods.
But for He Chao, there isn't much he wants at the moment.
Comparing the statistics table from the second uncle's side, there is no flaw.
After comparing with his second uncle, He Chao returned to the first outer city. Li Yu also told his uncle about the matter and asked him to take a few people to go out with He Chao tomorrow to deliver the news.
Then come back.
.........
Around Xincheng.
Near the industrial park.
In a garment factory, the hot weather caused an abandoned and worn-out garment to spontaneously combust around the factory.
The tires of some vehicles on the roadside were directly blown out by the sun.
After the tire blew out, the entire car burst into flames.
Inside the garment factory, the ground is covered with buckets filled with well water.
Almost every once in a while, they press out new water from the well water.
The weather is too hot and there is no other way to cool down.
If they want to go outdoors now, they must take protective measures, otherwise they will be sunburned, swollen, and pus will appear all over their bodies in just a few minutes.
Once inflammation occurs, the consequences can be very serious.
Wow——
Xiao Hu carried the bucket and poured the slightly colder well water from top to bottom.
He was shirtless, wearing only a pair of shorts.
At this time, the panties were also wet.
Water drops fell on the ground, making a sizzling sound.
Like a drop of water falling into a pan of oil.
"Third brother, bring in a few more buckets of water later. These seven or eight buckets of water are hot again." Xiao Hu said in a rough dress.
Because it was so hot and there was very little moisture outside, every breath I took in felt as uncomfortable as inhaling chili powder.
Therefore, they placed many buckets indoors, which can achieve a cooling effect and increase the water vapor in the room so that breathing will not be so difficult.
"Brother Xiao, I really can't stand it anymore. I went out just now and my arms were not protected. For that moment, the skin is peeling off now.
Why don't we go to the Da Zhangshu Base for help? If this continues, the brothers really won't be able to hold on anymore."
The third child tore off the dead skin on his hands and said to Xiao Hu while breathing heavily.
Xiao Hu shook the water on his head and said in silence for a while: "We don't have enough points now, otherwise we can apply for upgrading to join the outer city. It's just a few points short..."
The third child also sighed leisurely. He naturally knew the point system of the Da Zhangshu Base. Everything was fair and there was not much to gossip about.
There are many survivors around Xincheng, and some of them have the same idea as them.
But they are able to survive until now and it is clear that the Da Zhangshu Base owes them nothing.
As for threatening the Da Zhangshu base in the name of morality or saving people, it is obviously a joke.
Has the Dazhangshu Base ever been threatened and compromised?
No.
Not a single case.
Although it is cruel, it is very realistic.
.......
Orange Island Head.
Due to the high temperature in recent days, the water level of the river has dropped a lot.
Water levels have reached record lows.
In the southern refugee camp, there is always a stench in the air.
After being exposed to the sun, that kind of rotten meat smells worse than sewer sewage.
Mosquitoes and flies scattered.
The air seemed to be on fire.
Refugee camp, southwest corner.
Under a tent.
There were two men sitting helplessly inside the tent.
My lips are chapped and white, my head is covered with sweat, my eyes are white, and I see a lot of air coming out and little air coming in.
"You, please stop begging Haichao and let us stay for a day. We helped them manage the refugee camp before."
This man said feebly to another person.
The other person had a bare head, and the skin on the top of his head was sunburned like a cooked lobster, red and swollen.
He touched his head and rubbed it gently, and a small piece of flesh and blood came off.
hiss--
The pain, like a needle prick, made him grit his teeth.
After taking a few deep breaths.
He said with a sarcastic face: "Don't think about it, they can't hold it anymore. When I passed by just now, I saw more than 30 people crowded into a room of less than 12 square meters, just for the air-conditioning.
"
"Heh." He sneered, and the next second, he coughed violently.
Cough cough cough——
Pooh--
He spit out a bloody lump.
Apparently, it was part of his internal organs, which he spat out in a violent coughing fit.
But he didn't panic, nor did he have any surprises. He seemed to have accepted his fate, and fatigue came over him like a tide.
There was a murmuring, inaudible sound in the mouth.
It seemed like he was answering the partner opposite him, or maybe he was talking to himself.
"This bastard Gan Shang, if he had known that this would be the result, I would have followed him out, and I would have been better off starving to death than being heated to death.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It is better to find a deeper basement than to be in this shit tent..."
As he spoke, his hand fell softly to the ground.
No more sound.
........
The North District of Chengzizhoutou.
Jiu Zhi lost half of his life. After finally returning, he immediately told Gan Shang the news. Gan Shang was very excited and quickly ordered Hai Chao and others to take people out.
But Haichao looked embarrassed.
"Boss, it's too hot now. Brothers don't want to go out."
The reason why I don't want to go out is very simple. In this kind of horrible weather, running such a long distance, not to mention suffering, the main risk is too great.
Such a long distance, after passing it, there is a question mark on whether we can come back or not.
In such hot weather, if there is a conflict, it will only add fuel to the fire.
Knowing that it is a fatal task, the people under my command are naturally unwilling to do it.
Gan Shang was very angry and said angrily: "Isn't it just that the temperature is a little too high? Wasn't it also very hot last summer? It's hot. How hot can it get?"
Hai Chao looked helplessly at the boss, who had not been out for four or five days because of the excessive heat.
He bit the bullet and said to Gan Shang: "Boss, it's really hotter outside than a week ago. You can feel it."
Gan Shang still remembered the approximate temperature a week ago. Although it was hot, it was not completely impossible to move outside.
He didn't believe in evil, so he didn't wear any protection and cursed: "It's not like I haven't been out before..."
With that said, he opened the door and walked outside.
As soon as I came out, I felt a heat wave coming out.
Swish——
He was used to the air-conditioned temperature indoors. When he suddenly came out, his body had not adapted to the outdoor temperature. Sweat instantly flowed down his forehead.
Some beads of sweat soon appeared on the surface skin of the body.
This...it's true that the temperature was much higher than a week ago.
Gan Shang was unwilling to do so, so he bravely walked out into the sun.
Hai Chao, who was under the shadow of the eaves, saw Gan Shang like this and kindly reminded him: "Boss, the sun is very strong, be careful..."
"Ah!" As soon as Gan Shang walked under the sun, he felt a ball of fire burning his skin.
In order not to lose face in front of his men, he forced his body to leave and continued to stand in the sun.
There was smoke coming from the top of his head.
Make a sizzling sound.
It looks like it will burn out soon.
Gan Shang did not wear any protection, just wearing a T-shirt and shorts. His exposed skin and top of his head were not protected in any way.
After standing in the sun for more than ten seconds, he jumped up and down and ran into the room in embarrassment.
After entering the room, he remained silent and his exposed skin was already red.
There was still a vague itching feeling, and he knew that this was a symptom of sunburn.
If he can't help himself and scratches the itch with his hands, the skin will most likely be torn off and the flesh and blood will be blurred.
"Boss, cool down." Hai Chao poured a glass of water from the side and handed it to Gan Shang.
Gan Shang looked at Hai Chao with some resentment, his eyes seemed to say: Why didn't you tell me earlier?
Haichao was a little aggrieved, as he had clearly said what he had just said.
Even when he comes here, he has to wear protective gear, otherwise he wouldn't dare to stand in the sun like that.
It's the hottest time of the day now, I didn't expect the boss to be so brave.
But it's okay, after the boss felt it for a while, he knew how hot it was now, so he wouldn't give him some unrealistic orders.
"There is cooling oil in the cabinet, bring it to me." Gan Shang said dullly.
Hai Chao obediently went to get it and gave it to Gan Shang.
The two of them had a tacit understanding, and neither of them mentioned going to Xiao Jun or the others again.
