I have a House of Requirement

Chapter 74 The Ideal World (23)

The two soon came to the cafeteria of the gas station, where the companions of the gas station could receive a piece of food every night.

Christina came to the person who distributed the food and brought two portions of food in an iron food box.

Dinner was very simple, just a pile of mashed potatoes and a half green and half red tomato.

Both potatoes and tomatoes are agricultural crops that are less water and drought tolerant.

In this post-nuclear era where water is scarce, it is a relatively common food.

But Lin Huan glanced at the mashed potatoes that Tina called, and compared them with the mashed potatoes of other people in the surrounding gas stations.

Obviously my mashed potatoes are much larger than others, and none of them have tomatoes.

Lin Huan asked with some doubts.

"Tina, we have a lot more food."

Christina handed her tomato to a little girl at the gas station who had been staring at the tomato. The girl immediately gnawed on the tomato.

This satisfied expression seemed to have eaten the most delicious food in the world.

Then Christina turned to look at Lin Huan and explained.

"Because you are the captain of the oil delivery, I also followed you to get dirty."

"Oh, I see."

Lin Huan smiled, and then said nothing more.

The gas station adopts a merit system. The higher a person's position and merit, the more resources he can get.

This concept is easy to understand, work harder and work harder.

Otherwise, without the drive of profit, how could so many people be willing to risk their lives to do those dangerous things?

And the current treatment must be one of the old chief's methods to win him over.

He also picked up his own tomato, and handed it to a poor little boy next to him who didn't get a tomato.

Christina looked at Lin Huan and said with admiration.

"Lin Huan, you are so kind. You defeated those people from the Vulture Gang without asking for any trophies. Now you are willing to give the tomatoes that the leader gave you to our companions at the gas station."

Lin Huan just smiled lightly.

"Nothing. Well, let's eat."

After dinner, Christina brought Lin Huan to the square of the gas station.

Every night, everyone at the gas station gathers around the fire camp in the square to dance and sing.

It's a daily routine that almost everyone takes part in.

Although such behavior will undoubtedly consume physical strength and increase food consumption.

But as social animals, humans need such activities to maintain and connect with each other.

Humans are sometimes very fragile animals.

Especially in the post-nuclear era, there is an even greater need for a uniting and inspiring event.

Otherwise, in this terrible world, hearts will soon be scattered.

Essence, energy and spirit are like a person's bones, if a person does not have the support of bones, he is just a puddle of flesh.

But Lin Huan looked at the people around the fire camp in a very depressed mood.Only a few scattered people danced around the bonfire, while more people just stood there silently without saying a word.

"They don't seem very happy?"

He asked a question.

"Yes." Christina also nodded, and sighed heavily. "Because our oil delivery troops didn't get the supplies this time. Before the supplies are exchanged, everyone has to wait for a while."

Gas stations are well stocked with fuel, but the problem is that food is scarce.

In order to solve this problem, they planted some crops in the wilderness near the gas station, such as potatoes, tomatoes and eggplants.Because of the scarcity of rain, only these crops that are less water-drought and drought-tolerant can be grown.

But speedster gangs like the Vulture Gang make a living by robbing others and do not engage in agricultural production.

Therefore, because of the existence of the speeding party, the planting area of ​​the gas station is extremely limited, and the food produced is not enough to survive.

Therefore, gas stations often need to use tank trucks to exchange supplies to meet the needs of people's lives at the gas station.

In the past, gas stations rarely exchanged supplies like today, where they lost the tanker truck and failed to obtain the supplies they needed.

Although some supplies were collected from the Vulture Gang as compensation, overall they still lost a lot.

Therefore, it is very normal for people at gas stations to be depressed.

Lin Huan also nodded.

"So it is."

"Lin Huan." Christina suddenly looked at Lin Huan and said pleadingly. "Let's go in and dance too, we can't look at everyone so depressed."

"Huh? I can't dance."

Lin Huan panicked for the first time after coming to this post-nuclear world.

"It's okay, I'll teach you."

After speaking, Christina took Lin Huan's hand and led him into the campfire.

"Everyone listen to me."

Christina, who has gorgeous red hair, shouted and immediately attracted all the attention.

"His name is Lin Huan, and he is the hero who saved our oil delivery team. Our leader said that from today onwards he will be our partner at the gas station. And from today onwards he will be our new oil delivery team leader. From now on, he will be in charge of the oil delivery operation.

Please don't worry, Lin Huan is a very powerful person.He will definitely redeem supplies for us, and we won't be hungry by then! "

Because the surviving members of the oil delivery team had already rescued Lin Huan single-handedly from everyone in the oil delivery team, and the story of one person destroying the Vulture Gang spread under the gas station.

So although Lin Huan came to the gas station for the first time, his name had already been spread among the people.

"It's the hero Lin Huan!"

"My husband was saved by Lin Huan."

"Lin Huan killed a lot of Vulture Gang members by himself."

"With Lin Huan here, we are not afraid of running out of supplies."

Christina's words immediately aroused the confidence of everyone in the gas station, and everyone cast their eyes directly on Lin Huan.

This little girl is really real.

Lin Huan sighed helplessly in his heart, and immediately puffed up his chest and said loudly to everyone.

"Hi everyone, I am Lin Huan. From now on, I will be the captain of the oil delivery team. I guarantee that there will be no mistakes in the oil delivery mission in the future. Please rest assured, I will definitely exchange enough supplies for you! Anyone who is hungry!"

Hearing Lin Huan's assurance, the emotions of everyone at the gas station were instantly ignited.

People soon cheered and jumped up, shouting Lin Huan's name.

"Lin Huan! Lin Huan!"

"Lin Huan! Lin Huan!"

"Lin Huan! Lin Huan!"

"Lin Huan! Lin Huan!"

The previous dull atmosphere was swept away, and Christina said loudly while the iron was hot.

"Let's all dance together!"

As she spoke, Christina held Lin Huan's hand, and the two took the lead in dancing beside the fire.

The passion of the people at the gas station has been ignited, and they have also joined the ranks of dancing
And far away from the bonfire, a figure in the dark looked at Lin Huan, who was already the focus of everyone, and showed a sinister smile.

"Lin Huan, right? Interesting"

Lin Huan, who was led by Christina to dance together, felt that the girl in front of him was as intoxicating as an elf in the dark, so he couldn't bear to take his eyes off her for a moment.

Lin Huan couldn't help teasing himself in his heart.

Sure enough, as long as people are beautiful, all wildness is playful, and everything will make people feel cute.

The two aroused everyone's interest, and the atmosphere in the square became lively.

When both of them were a little tired, they left the field and prepared to rest for a while.

Lin Huan looked at the beautiful Christina sitting beside him, and suddenly asked her.

"Tina, I have a request."

Christina tilted her head, looked at Lin Huan and asked.

"what?"

Lin Huan first looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping, and then he whispered in Christina's ear.

"Can you accompany me tonight?"

Hearing Lin Huan's request, Christina's face turned as red as a ripe apple.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Christina followed Lin Huan and left the square of the gas station.
The next day, the gas station conference room.

All five high-level executives from the gas station were present, including the old leader, Qian Fu, Zhang Bin, Xu Da, and Lin Huan, who was newly promoted to be the captain of the gas station.

But for some reason, Lin Huan looked tired, as if he had worked hard all night.
