MTL - The Zombies Are Coming But I’m Laying Down At Home-Chapter 57 57th
"I received it, I was just about to talk about it." He Xuan was a bit dumbfounded, "This child said that she doesn't know us or you, so she doesn't want to leave... It's useless for me to lure me with food."
Fu Erdie: "..." Yes, the child is 12 years old now, and he was only seven or eight years old when he went to C city to play. At that time, when he was young, how could he remember a relative who went to the park with her one weekend and took a picture casually my sister...
Even if it was Fu Erdie, he couldn't remember it!
It was the child's grandmother who often made video calls with her grandmother and sent videos of her little granddaughter. Fu Erdie sometimes had an impression until she glanced at her, but for the child, she really had no sense of existence.
But it's good to be vigilant. Although it's useless for others to kidnap her, maintaining a vigilant attitude of "no pie in the sky" will usually lead to a longer life.
Fu Erdie felt a heart attack when she looked at her cousin who was washing her feet.
A seventeen-year-old boy is not as sensible as a twelve-year-old child!
"Then has the child returned to the previous residence now? What did the base say?"
He Xuan: "No. We exchanged two pounds of kohlrabi for this child to live in the utility room next to the reception for two days. Although it is a utility room, I heard that it is much cleaner than ordinary people's residences."
Fu Erdie nodded: "This is true."
He Xuan continued: "Then I gave her a bottle of water that can be drunk directly and potatoes and fruits that can be eaten raw, let her take a break for the next two days and have a rest, and now I will contact you when I get home. It seems that the base has no idea of deduction, and wants to use this as an opportunity to establish a long-term trading relationship with us."
"Trade crystal cores? They shouldn't have much left." Fu Erdie touched her chin.
"Yes, there are not too many crystal cores. The remaining crystal cores need to use the existing ability users. What they want to trade is reinforced concrete, and technicians who can repair buildings and build city walls."
He Xuan actually knew for the first time that only relying on earth-type ability users or metal ability users to build the wall would not last long.
No matter how powerful the power user itself is, and how thick the earth wall and metal wall given, if the foundation piles are not driven well and the support is designed scientifically enough, the zombies will still fall after a few more pushes.
"Some power user bases don't care about the walls, because there are people on duty every day. When they see zombies coming, they can't beat them, so they run back to notify everyone. The function of the wall is not so much to block zombies, but to demarcate the territory and then assist in warning. For example, one day, although no zombies were seen, but the wall in one place fell down, it means that there were zombies breaking in there."
And the really useful and long-term use of the wall, you have to rely on people who know how to do it.
How to design the position of piling, what kind of piling depth should be used in what kind of soil and rock formation, and what method and weight should be used to compact and level the surrounding land after piling…
All of these require professionals to be responsible.
If Fu Erdie's community wants to expand and build more peripheral walls, Professor Zhao should be able to guide. After all, in his long study and research career, it is common for professors and engineers of different disciplines to meet each other while working on certain projects. Professor Zhao has some understanding of architecture.
She can be said to be a generalist, but after all, she is not a specialist in in-depth research in vertical fields.
For example, when building a system, the framer is very important, and she has to steer the entire structure and direction. However, there are many branches under a framework, and each branch needs to have enough professional and vertical people to be responsible for it, so that every detail can be filled, so as not to let a system leak everywhere.
What the base in City D is doing now is to tell He Xuan and his group that they actually have many such technicians. Although they are not supernatural beings, their educational background may be an undergraduate, a junior college student, or even a migrant worker who has no academic qualifications, but only learns skills and then comes to work, but after working for ten or twenty years, they are particularly aware of certain aspects , Professionals who are skilled in some aspects. Before the end of the world, it was ordinary, but now it is very urgent and extremely useful.
The base protects 30,000 ordinary people, of which 500 or 600 have various skills. If Fuerdie's community needs it, they can **** these people to help Fuerdie complete the infrastructure.
After hearing He Xuan's words, Fu Erdie's first reaction was that her community didn't need these. With Zhao Shansi, Zhuang Licheng, and sports student Pan Feizhou, they could already build a power system for the community. There are not many requirements, as long as the entire community or a few buildings near Building No. 7 are powered on.
As for the fence—what kind of fence do you want, she can't wait to go back and take the initiative to pull a large number of zombies back to feed the plant cubs.
The problem of vigilance is not big. After all, the dandelions in the community are connected one by one, and they have had the experience of calling the police before. As long as there are them, Fu Erdie and others can find a powerful enemy approaching at any time.
But to say that more technical staff is not needed at all, not all.
For example, on the first floor of Building No. 7, many walls have been damaged by the team of power users in the university city before. Now they are repairing and repairing the internal steel bars. When the field of the house is expanded to the whole building, these damaged walls will be destroyed by themselves. recover.
However, the upgrade of the house is obviously not that fast. It takes a lot of crystal cores and is pushed and pulled by Fu Erdie for a long time before it can be upgraded little by little. If this process is relatively long, and the field has not been extended to the first floor, if there is really a problem on the first floor, it will only be supported by succulent...
Fu Erdie doesn't think Succulent is strong enough to hold up a wall and a building...
In addition, several other buildings were also burned in many places in the previous firefight, and they also needed people to repair.
In fact, it is said that Professor Zhao and Zhuang Licheng also need many people as assistants in their technical work.
Fu Erdie hopes that in the future, even if the house follows her everywhere, the family members in the community will still have electricity to use. So for this generator and power system, you need to make a lot of lists, prepare a lot of different things, build a lot of different modules and then weld them together.
It is impossible for Professor Zhao and Zhuang Licheng to be responsible for every job, even the work that anyone can do, including welding. So, you still need help.
However, the D city base obviously does not want to release these professional and technical personnel. Fu Erdie couldn't do anything to take these technicians away.
"Try it first." Fu Erdie decided, "Tell them that we don't need to build walls, but we need skilled workers who can repair high-rise buildings. You can tell them about the damage to Building No. 7 in our community and the surrounding buildings. Let them know the amount of reinforced concrete they need. In addition, tell them that we also need electricians and welders, and if there are technicians in electric power research or students in related majors, they can come too.”
Fu Erdie wasn't sure how many people and related materials he might need, so he said, "On the latter, let's talk about the latter first. The main purpose this time is to pick up people. I will discuss with Professor Zhao after I go back and list the people who need it. A list of things and things, and come back to them."
He Xuan listened to Fu Erdie and wrote them down one by one.
"What about that kid?"
"Come over with the walkie-talkie, and I'll tell her."
The walkie-talkie has to be pressed to speak, but it was disconnected for a short time, it should be going out.
Fu Erdie took this moment to walk towards her grandmother.
At this time, my aunt took a bath tub and took a bath in the toilet. Fu Erdie lied that there were only two buckets of water in the box car. He had completely washed half of the buckets when bathing his grandmother, and he also used more than half of the buckets for bathing his aunt, so his cousin only had a little water to wipe his body.
It wasn't that Fu Erdie deliberately bullied his cousin, but that he really only had two buckets in his box car, and it was impossible to make more buckets, saying that he had sufficient water storage and didn't want to expose his abilities.
Seeing this, the aunt wanted to give her son the opportunity to wash her body, but was stopped by Fu Erdie.
"He's not a child, his body is much stronger than yours. The day you get cleaned up a day earlier, you'll be less affected by skin diseases."
Seeing that Fu Erdie was not very happy, the aunt was also very helpless that her child was ignorant, so she could only stare at Cao Yuanbai again, and then went to the toilet to take a bath.
Cao Yuanbai accepted it well, and said, "Don't pour the water that mother-in-law and mother take after bathing, just put it there. Those dirty things will settle down in the daytime tomorrow. I will scoop out the water on it and wash it."
Fu Erdie looked at the blackness and could no longer see the color of the water in the bucket.
Grandma was sitting in the chair and didn't know what she was thinking. Fu Erdie walked over and said, "There are three other people who came from our base. They took the child Zhang Guya and I and said they were going to find her. When we are at the gate of the base tomorrow, when we are unloading the goods and picking up people, we will make sure that there is really nothing wrong with the base, so we will go together and leave behind the resettlement fee of three thousand catties of grain for the four people in total."
Grandma returned to her senses and was a little surprised: "We ordinary people don't need resettlement fees when we leave!"
Fu Erdie lowered her eyes and said, "Let's stay. Anyway, we have enough food, but the base's food is not enough."
Grandma's eyes were kind and she stroked Fu Erdie's smooth hair: "Good boy, it's hard for you."
Fu Erdie shook her head and showed her the walkie-talkie in her hand: "We'll talk to Zhang Guya in a while, you can prove it to me, it's really a relative."
"it is good."
After a signal noise, He Xuan's voice sounded: "Boss, we are in this child's room."
When Fu Erdie heard the title "Boss", her eyebrows twitched, and she quickly looked at her cousin.
My cousin was concentrating on rubbing his feet, not paying attention to the situation here.
Fu Erdie breathed a sigh of relief, pressed the call button and said to the child over there: "Gu Ya, it's me, the sister who took the photo with you in the photo. It's like this..."
Because Zhang Guya seemed vigilant and calm enough, Fu Erdie told her about her plan to save people, and did not conceal that she wanted to try the base with her attitude.
When any deception is not uncovered or understood by the parties concerned, it will become a perfectly beautified part. But once the client comes back to his senses, it is obviously a matter of benefit to him, and it will also become a painful thorn.
It's better to tell her from the beginning, don't let her feel grateful for a long time without knowing it, and then backlash when she grows up.
The grandmother testified aloud that it was really herself.
The cousin who was still rubbing his feet also said loudly: "And me and me! Cao Yuanbai!"
Fu Erdie couldn't help it, she rushed over and slapped Cao Yuanbai on the back: "Can you be quieter!"
Cao Yuanbai shrank his neck and hurriedly made a seal.
Fu Erdie took a deep breath, diverted her attention, listened to the sound of breathing on the walkie-talkie with the signal noise, and then heard the little girl's choked voice: "Thank you sister, thank you mother-in-law, thank you brother, sister and aunt..."
Fu Erdie's heart fell to the ground, with mixed feelings. Due to the inconvenient charging of the walkie-talkie at the base, Fu Erdie agreed to turn off the phone first, and then turned off the call when they met at the unloading place at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.
The little girl's broken and sensible voice was still floating in Fu Erdie's ears.
Every time it floats, Fu Erdie wants to hammer this cousin again.
The children who were poor in the past should be the early heads of the family, but now they need the orphans to be the early heads of the family?
Zhang Guya is a left-behind child who lives with his grandmother in the countryside. After the end of the world, her grandparents passed away one after another, and she was the only one who stumbled and suffered all by herself, and lived with the army to this day.
He is not a supernatural person, he has no skills, he does not know how to drive and other life skills. He has little strength and is slow to work. He has to work continuously for 16 hours a day to complete the workload of the day, and then eat some leftovers.
She didn't want to be the boss, but she couldn't.
On the other hand, this money-losing cousin can't drive a car. After all, it is understandable that he is not 18 years old, and Fu Erdie himself has not learned to drive.
But in addition to not being able to drive a car and having no common sense in life, he also doesn't care about people.
But it also has something to do with her character.
The apocalypse is so hard, you can tell from the aunt's stance of letting her son take a bath first, she must have some delicious food for her child to eat, a little clean water for her to drink, and a little clean cloth to wipe off the dirt on her body. Still leave it to the child.
She suffered from all kinds of hardships, and when her son was considerate and sensible, she was moved to tears: "My child has finally grown up."
Not to mention the apocalypse, my aunt was like this before the apocalypse. She was often moved by the little things her son did, such as gifts for Mother's Day.
But the premise of giving gifts is that the aunt gave him a thousand yuan pocket money because he wanted to buy shoes.
He spent more than 900 yuan to buy shoes, and then used the remaining dozens of yuan to buy a bag for his mother.
Fu Erdie looked at the emotion of the aunt in the family group, really, her scalp was numb.
She thought about it and thought about it, but she was still a little angry.
Although the community was set up by her, she was the boss. But the more this is, the more she needs to be more responsible and restrain her relatives and friends.
Externally, several of them represent the "base" of the community. Internally, their relatives and friends can eat and drink and do nothing, but their attitude will represent Fu Erdie's attitude.
If I go to the community, my cousin still promises other people's affairs casually. If she doesn't agree, she has to be a bad person.
And if the community has any secret strategy and strategy, it is not enough for outsiders, and if my cousin reveals it, it is also a very big trouble.
Moreover, the cousin's temperament with a little advantage is easy to float, and he has an inexplicable sense of superiority, and it is easy for Fu Erdie to offend a group of people.
Can't let him go back like this.
Fu Erdie made up her mind and knocked on the toilet door: "Auntie, I think this base is pretty good, why don't I take you and grandma back first, and then my cousin stays here for a while."
Cao Yuanbai turned his head sharply: "Why?! Didn't you come to pick us up?"
Fu Erdie wanted to sneer, but held back: "Actually, our base is not much better than this one. At most, you do less work every day. It's almost the same if you go there."
"But I want to be with my mother-in-law and mother!" Cao Yuanbai was shocked, expressing his incomprehension.
Fu Erdie smiled: "I have more important tasks for you. You also heard that our base will cooperate with the base in City D, and there should be some exchanges in the future. But I am a little worried, if City D is handed over to various parties in the past. Is there a need to cut corners for this kind of material? Anyway, you are also working as a coolie in a cement factory, so help me to keep an eye on the quality of the cement, and by the way, participate more in the work of cement wall repairing and learn some skills. Anyway, nine years of compulsory education plus two In high school, it's not like you don't even know how to stick to the wall for a month or two."
"After a while, you probably know a little bit about these things. When I go back to the base with me, I can do chores in all aspects of building the wall. I'll take you back then."
Cao Yuanbai: "..."
He just usually speaks faster than his head, not without a brain. Why does it sound wrong?
He is an ordinary person, yes, his mother, grandmother, and even Cousin Butterfly are all ordinary people. Why should I learn other work procedures in the cement factory, but they don't?
Obviously to leave him!
Fu Erdie saw the accusation in his eyes, and said coldly: "Here, you have caused trouble, and your mother and grandmother will give you an unconditional answer. On my side, the relationship between superpowers is very complicated. My grandmother is a direct relative. Although my aunt is a collateral relative, she is also my mother's sister, and she has given me a lot of care since I was a child. If there is any problem, I will try my best to protect it. But what about you? You are mad at me and my family, what are you doing? You have done something wrong, and you need me to pay for it, and even my boyfriend to pay for it. "
"Even if we grew up together, we have a good relationship. What about my boyfriend? You feel your conscience and say, you can't do anything, and if you cause trouble for my boyfriend at my base, why should he worry about you? on?"
"Let's put it this way, I am a clerk who handles some sundries at the base, and I rely more on my boyfriend. He has helped me take care of a few relatives. My boyfriend takes care of you?!"
Cao Yuanbai opened his mouth and wanted to say why he needed to be taken care of.
But after thinking about it, he blushed again.
Now working at the base cement factory in D city, he has been in charge of rolling stones, something purely physical. Now ask him, what kind of stone was used, how to screen it in the next step, what particle size of the stone to use, and how to calcine it, he has no idea at all.
Listening to what my cousin said, if the base over there needs cement, just buy it directly from the base in City D here, there is no need for him to continue grinding any raw materials.
"Aren't there any fools to do physical work on your side..." Cao Yuanbai scratched his chicken coop head, panicking in his heart.
"No." Seeing that he was still panicking, it wasn't completely over, Fu Erdie breathed a sigh of relief, "It's just a daily cleaning, cleaning the community, and sending a whistle. It's not a physical task, it can be done by anyone. Ordinary people at our base are either aborigines like me who are inconvenient to drive out, or are very close relatives and friends."
Cao Yuanbai felt that he was also a close relative and friend of his cousin, but he couldn't say anything to his inexplicably cold eyes.
"Little Butterfly."
The aunt, who was still cleaning her body in the toilet, was a little anxious when she heard the words.
She was anxious not because her son couldn't go with her, but because she might cause trouble for her niece: "Otherwise, I won't go back, so let Mom go back with you. Mom is an old man and can't eat much, and you know her usual personality, very It's easy to get along, just go back, I won't go back."
Fu Erdie's attitude towards her aunt and her cousin is completely different. She whispered softly: "Auntie, you can drive and your driving skills are good. There are many jobs that you can drive when you go to the base. It's just a little hard work, and you have to avoid zombies in the city. But no matter what, it must be There's work to do, and it's a lot easier than here. You go back with me, my cousin is so old, he needs to exercise."
"The little animals have been protected by their mothers, and the end result will not be very good."
The words were serious, and the aunt and cousin were silent.
After a long time, the grandmother opened her mouth.
She knew that Xiaodie had supernatural powers, and also heard the respect of the woman over the walkie-talkie towards Erdie, and knew that life in the community must not be as difficult as her granddaughter said.
Since the granddaughter was reunited, Yuan Bai's immaturity in various details was too much, and he wanted to temper him.
Actually, that's fine.
The D city base is not a cannibalistic base. Although it is very hard work, it is still enough to eat every day. Yuanbai alone will not have any major problems.
And before, although Yuan Bai was out of tune, he would obediently help his mother and mother-in-law with the work they couldn't finish every day. Although he is always self-righteous and puts himself first in most things, he has never been disciplined by others except for being taught by butterflies from childhood to adulthood, but it is not bad in nature, much better than his father who loves to take advantage.
It's the same as his father who likes to brag, can't hide things in his mouth, and likes to look down on people.
Now he is not qualitative, temper it, maybe he can break it back.
If you can't break it back, you won't have a door in your mouth for a long time... Even if you take it back to City C and go to Xiaodie's community, you can only be marginalized and guarded.
If there are many people like this in the community, it doesn't matter, everyone is making jokes together. I'm afraid that the community is a community that everyone has carefully screened. Except for him, no one is this kind of mindless babbling and talking endlessly. If he goes, he can only be isolated.
Maybe he is still aggrieved after being isolated, and I don't know why others look down on him.
"Let Yuan Bai stay here, it's good to learn a little more." Grandma said, "If you still haven't learned anything after a few months, you can only talk about it when the time comes."
Cao Yuanbai hunched his back dejectedly, and didn't want to rub his feet anymore, so he stepped on the edge of the basin to air dry.
Fu Erdie got the support of her grandmother, and was happy that she was not a bad person by herself.
"I'll give you 30 pounds of potatoes," Fu Erdie said. "The remaining half a bucket of water will also be reserved for you. You can hide it and drink it slowly. I'll come back next month when I have time. you."
Cao Yuanbai knew that his family was determined to let him learn something, so he could only agree.
At night, grandma and aunt sleep on the big bed in the bedroom, Fu Erdie and Sang Wenhao sleep in the box car, and Cao Yuanbai lays the floor.
He looked at the moonlight pouring in from the window, and suddenly felt very vicissitudes.
Do you want to be alone?
In fact, if you are alone, you don't have to do the work that your mother-in-law and mother can't do, which is not bad.
However, it should be a lot more relaxed, but I feel empty and insecure in my heart.
He looked at the bedroom, then turned over to look at the box car, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Forget it, where do you work? When you learn about cement, you will become a professional in the future, and then you will secretly become stronger and shock everyone!
