End of the World Cycle
Chapter 80 Zombie Cattle and Horses.
When the car came again, there was a snowmobile at the end of the team. In front of Xie Qin's eyes, two identical people came down, Shui Liqing and Shui Limu. Xie Qin slapped her head, why didn't she think of these two people, they were the best cattle and horses.
When the two people saw me, smiles immediately appeared on their faces and they walked towards me on the soft snow. Looking at the two people, a bold and potentially feasible idea formed in my mind.
Liu Jiajun in the lead car also came over with his group. Xu protected himself very well due to skin enhancement, so he was wearing the thinnest clothes, a hoodie and a pair of sweatpants. He walked comfortably in the front, forming a sharp contrast with the people around him who were wrapped like dumplings.
"Base Commander, I found two people who used to work at the port. I brought them here, but it was too cold for them to get out of the car."
"Which car are they in? I'll go find them."
"It's in car number one. Go ahead."
While he was talking, the two brothers of the Shui family had already walked up to him. Seeing that he was about to leave, they followed him on the left and right like two younger brothers.
"Go help move the things. Don't leave today. I have something for both of you to do."
"Okay." 'Huh~' After the two agreed, they went to help move things. Xie Qin saw two men in car number one. The two squeezed in the passenger seat, and Xie Qin quickly opened the door and got into the driving seat.
"The base looks great."
"Well, I have a batch of containers here. There are a lot of them. I heard that you have worked in the port. Can you tell exactly what is inside?"
"There are many types of containers, most of which are dry cargo containers. I just looked through the window and saw that all of them are dry cargo containers. There are two or three small hatches on the top and bulk cargo containers with shipping ports on the bottom. These containers are usually filled with food, but they may also be filled with cement or sand. There is also a type of refrigerated container, which is mostly filled with fish or fruit. If it is an internal container, it may not be broken, but if it is an external container, it is definitely useless."
"Yes, freezers must be powered. It's been so long since the end of the world, so they are definitely useless. There is also a type of container that I often transport, called an open-top container. However, these have no roof, only a layer of plastic cloth. However, they usually carry heavy goods such as glass plates, steel products, and machinery. Even if they are soaked in water, the impact should not be significant."
"Although your information is useful, it is still not enough and can't help much. Do you have a more detailed distinction?"
"Container number! Yes, container number! The container number is the order number of the container. This is unique. The number starts with the same for containers of the same type. This way they can be distinguished. Containers with the same number at the beginning and the same color are basically the same type of goods."
After getting these two pieces of information, Xie Qin seemed to understand something. He looked at the containers he had opened. Indeed, there were numbers on the sides of the containers, starting with g. The first four numbers were the same, and the colors of the items in the same category were also the same.
Once you know the information, you need to verify it.
"Can either of you operate a crane?"
"I can! I used to transport goods." said one of the men who looked older.
"I'll give you a task. I'll have people select about 50 people, and you'll have them teach them how to operate a crane. Of course, I won't treat you unfairly. As long as you can train 2000 people who can operate this, you can choose any house below the th floor of the Central Building. I'll also give you extra points for your monthly salary."
"Really?" The man was so excited. You know, because all four of his family members had awakened their special powers, they survived. However, because they had just enough gold and jade to pay for the entry fee, they didn't have any extra points to choose where to live. The four of them squeezed into the free dormitory. Two beds about 1.3 meters long were enough for four people to sleep. It was very crowded.
He has earth-related abilities, and his wife has water-related abilities. Both of them are first-level abilities, and they don’t have any extra points to exchange for capsule upgrades. In addition, they are timid and have never been able to kill zombies, so they can’t join the supply team.
Now he and his wife both work as sanitation workers. Their two children, one 10 and the other 8, can't do any work to earn points at school. As a result, even after entering the base, their family still lives a relatively low-income life, only solving the most basic problem of food and clothing.
I thought his skills were useless, but now the base commander can use them, it's like pie in the sky.
"of course."
The two of them were so envious that their hearts were about to jump out. But they didn't dare to say anything when they saw Xie Qin's cold face. It was not until Xie Qin left that they dared to speak to the other man.
"Brother Lin, when you teach me, you must take me with you!"
"Didn't you hear what the base commander said? She arranged for someone to study there. I can't do anything about it. Otherwise, you can go and sign up right away when you get back. There aren't too many people in the base right now. Maybe you'll be selected."
After this group of people left, a day had passed. It was getting dark, and Xie Qin collected all the empty containers, cleared a space, and took out the sled from the space. Looking at the small sled, it was estimated that it could not accommodate the three of them, especially since the two brothers of the Shishui family were not small.
After thinking about it, I decided to just take one. I glanced at the two of them and saw Xu Yangyang coming out of the container next to him after feeding the dog.
"Boss, are you leaving?"
"Yeah. I have something to do. I'll be back soon." Looking at Xu Yangyang, Xie Qin was worried. Should he leave someone to look after Xu Yangyang?
Shui Limu's eyesight improved and his mind worked quickly, so he immediately saw through Xie Qin's plan.
"I. Amazing. Take me."
Shui Limu was right. If he wanted to control the zombies, Shui Limu was undoubtedly the best candidate. But Shui Liqing was too stubborn. Before he could react, Shui Liqing had already gotten into the sled compartment. Shui Limu also sat in.
The two grown men just sat there completely, leaving no space at all under their buttocks. Xie Qin sighed helplessly.
"Then I won't go?"
"Ah~" Shui Liqing cried out, then came out again, held Xie Qin under the armpits like a child, held Xie Qin in his arms, and sat in the sled cabin.
Xie Qin lost his balance and fell into Shui Liqing's arms, his face hitting the elastic chest muscles, and then a "huh" sound came from above his head.
Even though Xie Qin didn't understand zombie language, he could still hear the complacency in his tone. It was as if he admired his own cleverness for coming up with this idea.
"Idiot." Shui Limu spoke, and his first words were full of sarcasm.
"Ho!"
"Fool."
"Ouch!!!"
"Thirteen o'clock."
"Ho!"
A unique way of quarreling. Xie Qin just wanted to ask if she could let go first before quarreling. Now she was like an object sandwiched between the two of them, and had to endure their elementary school quarrel.
"How about... taking me with you?" Xu Yangyang outside raised her hand and spoke at an inopportune time.
"Alright! Get out!" Xie Qin's voice was not loud, but she calmed the two people down coldly. The two people obediently left the sled warehouse, but Xie Qin was still held in Shui Liqing's arms in an extremely shameful posture.
To be honest, if it weren't for his good looks, this guy would have had his head twisted off by Xie Qin countless times.
"Put me down."
Xie Qin was let down and spoke to the three people very seriously.
"Shui Limu and I will go, Shui Liqing and Yangyang will stay. We will clear the snow tomorrow morning and wait for people to come and transport the goods. We will be back as soon as possible."
"Good boss!"
"Ah~" Shui Liqing's expression immediately became aggrieved, pitiful, as if he was bullied. He was obviously Shui Limu's older brother, but he seemed more childish than Shui Limu in every way.
But if you think about it, they are twins, exactly the same size, it's probably their personality. Although Shui Liqing was dissatisfied, he comforted himself after Xie Qin promised that he would take him next time.
The snow layer under the container was already more than halfway covered, and the snow was estimated to be nearly two meters thick. After throwing two wooden boards down, Xie Qin jumped down to avoid getting stuck in the snow. After putting away the sled and tying up the dog, the two set off while it was still light.
The dogs ran very fast in the snow, almost as fast as a snowmobile. If the three dogs had not changed in size, Xie Qin would have suspected that they had mutated.
It was already half past six when we arrived at the zombie gathering place on the outskirts of the city. It was getting dark, and almost all the zombies were buried in the snow. The short ones had only their heads left, and the tall ones had only their shoulders left. Except for occasionally raising their heads and making a few hoarse sounds, they were almost motionless.
Only a few zombies were wandering around in the high-rise corridors or houses. The arrival of Mitateki seemed to have perked up all the zombies.
Xie Qin tried to control a zombie to move things, but found that his ability could only control the zombie to stop moving or walk to a certain place, and could not control it to do what he wanted. Another option was to directly crush the zombie's head. Other abilities were not possible.
"Can you control zombies to move things?"
"of course."
"How much can you control?"
"All." Shui Limu raised his hand and pointed at all the zombies within their sight.
Xie Qin then put on his coat and walked out of the sled warehouse, releasing two containers, one empty and the other filled with clothing.
"Can you ask them to move the contents of this container to another one, and put them in order?"
"of course."
As Shui Limu raised his hand, the pupils of his eyes appeared. The zombies that were closer to him crawled out from the snow like machines and walked towards this side in a line.
Then I watched these zombies start moving things in an orderly manner.
"Don't move those who can't walk steadily or have broken limbs, and don't turn around and drop my things."
"it is good."
Then, the disabled zombies left the team one after another, leaving only some relatively healthy zombies. Although the zombies moved slowly, they had the advantage of being numerous. In less than 20 minutes, these zombies lined up to empty the things and put them away.
"How long can you control their mental power?"
"No. Mental power. They are obedient."
"Listen? Be obedient?" Xie Qin was puzzled. But he couldn't help but think of Xie Jin. In his previous life, it was because of Xie Jin's existence that all the zombies in the city surrounded the building to protect the remaining people. This might be the power of the zombie king.
After confirming Shui Limu's ability, the two selected a group of zombies with intact bodies. To be on the safe side, they did not recruit too many, only about 200. First, they tried out the working ability of these zombies.
After finishing all this, it was already dark. Although the distance was not far, traveling at night with a group of zombies still posed a safety hazard. Xie Qin took out a container on the spot, packed it up simply, and spent the night in it, and would set off tomorrow.
Maybe because she was growing up, Xie Qin was particularly sleepy. When she woke up, it was almost nine o'clock. She packed up and headed back to the place where the containers were processed. Several snowmobiles were already loading the goods.
"Zombies!!!! Zombies! It's zombies!" Someone noticed Xie Qin and the others first, and when he saw the densely packed zombies following behind the sled warehouse, he was so scared that his voice trembled.
Xu Yangyang then noticed it. She stood on the container and looked in the direction of Xie Qin. She saw three big dogs pulling a small transparent container, running and stopping in front, and hundreds of zombies following closely behind. The zombies trotted behind Xie Qin and the others, lining up in an orderly manner, without any sign of bloodthirsty aggression.
Xu Yangyang took out the small telescope from her pocket and took a look. Xie Qin's expression didn't change at all. Then she shouted to the panicked crowd.
"Don't be afraid, the base commander brought it here, it's okay."
Although these people didn't shout, they still returned to the car in fear and closed the door. Not stepping on the accelerator and driving away was their greatest trust in Xie Qin.
When they arrived at the place, Xie Qin didn't say much. The zombies climbed onto the container directly, divided into seven teams, and marched in an orderly column. Using the containers and trucks as turning points, they began to move the goods.
The people hiding in the car were stunned. Those zombies were like emotionless working machines, carrying goods with uniform movements. They didn't look like the kind that would attack people when they saw them.
Xie Qin stood outside and observed, and the Shui brothers also stood behind Xie Qin. Xu Yangyang, who was standing by, was not afraid of zombies. He was only curious about the zombies carrying goods for a minute or two, and then his eyes fell on Xie Qin's face.
The kind of admiration that emanates from the bottom of one's heart cannot be faked. At this moment, in Xu Yangyang's eyes, Xie Qin is the most powerful god!
After observing for a while, some young and brave people on the car had already got off. But they didn't dare to get too close, and for safety reasons they hid behind Xie Qin and the others, about seven or eight meters away, and watched.
Only when the zombies had filled the snowmobile and stopped did Xie Qin turn around and speak to the only three people behind him who dared to get off the vehicle.
"You three, go and close the door, and tell everyone else that from now on, except for you three, no one else needs to come to move the goods. And your wages will be increased by 200 points per day."
"Thank you! Thank you, base commander!" The three people were excited. When they heard about the salary increase, their fear of zombies seemed to decrease. In addition, the zombies were standing in a row in the open space next to them, not moving, which made them even less afraid. They quickly closed the car door, got in their car and returned to the base.
