Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 391 Daily Wasteland Collection (19)
Two days left until the end of the hot rainy season
There was chaos outside again, and Shen Yao could even hear shouting and killing while she was still asleep.
Cheng Qi did not go to work. He stayed at home and worked with Shen Yao to deal with the intruders. He also did not forget to reinforce the surrounding traps to prevent Shen Yao from suffering any loss when he was away.
"How many days will the chaos last?" It was raining and the air was filled with the lingering smell of blood.
Shen Yao took out a nutritional supplement and handed it to Cheng Qi. After the fighting, neither of them had an appetite to eat.
"It's only been a few days. The base is investigating the cause of the incident. It shouldn't have been this big."
According to the base's prediction, there will be some chaos at the end of this hot rainy season, but it will never become as chaotic as it is now. Basically, there are shouts of fighting everywhere, and there is no quiet place in the entire base.
"Are you saying someone is deliberately making trouble?" What's the purpose? The base cannot change hands.
"Maybe something else happened that we don't know about." The senior executives of the base were too far away from them, and Cheng Qi just wanted to protect his own little home.
After giving a few brief instructions, Cheng Qi put on his clothes and went out.
After locking the door again and reinforcing the walls, doors and windows, Shen Yao sat in the living room staring at the rain outside in a daze.
Drip
The watch made a sound, Shen Yao opened it, and it was a text message from Song Ling asking about her.
The Shen family also suffered losses to varying degrees, but Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu were at home, so anyone who broke in lost their lives here.
Song Ling was worried that something might happen to Shen Yao alone, so she planned to ask Shen Jiancheng to pick her up.
"Mom, I'm safe at home, please take care of yourself and tell Dad and brother to be careful."
After Shen Yao finished speaking, she thought again and again and decided to emphasize again what Cheng Qi had said, that things would still be chaotic in the next few days. If possible, someone should stay at home, and Song Ling should not be alone at home.
"Ah, this kid is alone, but he's so stubborn and won't confess."
Song Ling held up the watch for Shen Jiancheng to see and complained that Shen Yao was ignorant.
Shen Jiancheng had a silly smile on his face and didn't express any opinion. Shen Yu wanted to speak, but Song Ling glared at him and he had to swallow his words.
"Okay, it's uncomfortable to see you guys hanging around. If you want to go out, please be careful."
Song Ling waved her hand and went upstairs. As for Shen Jiancheng and Shen Yu, they would definitely not skip work for the sake of the gene stabilizer.
…………
One day left until the end of the hot and rainy season
Shen Yao once again dealt with the strangers who broke in with an expressionless face. This time there were fewer people, probably because more people died in the previous two days.
Cheng Qi carried the body away, told Shen Yao to be careful and left. Although they were a newly married couple, they did not have much time to comfort each other.
"Captain Cheng, leave these to the brothers. Will you stay and accompany your sister-in-law?"
The members of the patrol team had attended wedding banquets before, so they naturally knew Shen Yao's identity.
With the idea that there was less and less work to do and that occasionally skipping work was harmless, the team members looked at each other and tried to please the captain.
Cheng Qi smiled and said, "No need. Everyone is tired. We can all take a break after this period of busy work. Let's get back to work."
I can accompany Shen Yao at any time, except at this time.
The more critical the moment, the more you need to be cautious and not cause trouble.
Cheng Qi has always had this intuition. Even if other captains found excuses to slip away, Cheng Qi still chose to stay at the front line, even though he was very worried about Shen Yao.
The team members were disappointed but also relieved to see that their captain was so unromantic.
Who wouldn't want to follow a captain who clearly distinguishes between public and private matters, and at least won't disregard their lives and deaths?
Shen Yao stayed at home alone and had no idea what was happening outside. She still guarded the door to prevent herself from being caught off guard by a sudden break-in.
Don't underestimate anyone here. The mutated world causes certain human natures to be constantly magnified.
Just because Shen Yao is living a good life doesn't mean she doesn't have any anger in her heart.
No one knows how much power those who are in desperate situations can unleash.
"System, keep watching. Call me if there's any movement." After yawning, Shen Yao stood still by the window.
'Host, rest assured, the system will remind you in time and will never let you fall into danger.'
The system's guarantees can be trusted. Although artificial intelligence is not flexible, the mechanical programs they set up can avoid problems as much as possible.
The last day before the end of the hot rainy season passed without any major incidents.
Looking at the bright sky outside, Shen Yao couldn't wait to take a deep breath.
call
"You can't go out yet," Cheng Qi reached out and patted Shen Yao's shoulder. After taking off his protective suit, he regained his former handsomeness. The patrol team uniform on his body made his body look slender and stylish.
Shen Yao's eyebrows curved, "Are you still going to continue counting the number of people in the base today?"
Cheng Qi nodded. "Some houses are vacant. The base should sell a batch of them together. Should we take this opportunity to move into Area B?"
Shen Yao was surprised, "There are vacancies in Area B?" It is normal to have losses in Area C, but people also died in Area B?
Cheng Qi explained, "The casualties in Area B were very small, so there have always been vacancies. It's just that the number was not enough before, so it was difficult to handle. Now that something happened at the base, we took the opportunity to sell them all together, which can not only ease the housing pressure but also help the base recover."
The base has paid a lot for maintaining stability, and people living outside are frightened by the riots. This period is definitely the time when real estate transactions in the base are most frequent.
Cheng Qi held the right of first refusal to purchase a house, so he wanted to ask Shen Yao for her opinion.
Shen Yao touched his chin and said, "If possible, it would be best to move into Area B, and the Shen family can also move in together, so that daily security will be more secure."
The Cheng family is considered the natives of Area B. With the Cheng family around, there is no need to worry about them being bullied.
When you think about it this way, there are many benefits to moving into Area B.
Shen Yao's eyes sparkled, and she looked at Cheng Qi almost wanting to speak directly.
Cheng Qi laughed and promised that he would inquire about the situation carefully when he was at work. The Shen family didn't have to worry, as there was room for maneuver in entering Area B.
Watching Cheng Qi leave, Shen Yao hummed a little tune while tidying up the storage room.
The vacuum bags were used in time, and their family was able to preserve most of the food.
The redemption center does not have a lot of personal quotas this month. I heard that many people have to spend points on private transactions. Maybe I can take this opportunity to make a small profit?
As for the increase in food prices, there will be a corresponding increase in food prices at the end of each hot rainy season and cold season, which is a normal situation.
Take a photo and upload it to an anonymous community, then look for buyers who can trade with you through the watch.
But in just half a day, Shen Yao had earned points, all of which were deposits.
"Wow, we can continue to lie down for a few months with this food. It's so comfortable."
You don’t have to do anything. You can just eat when you wake up and sleep after eating. It is even more comfortable than the normal modern society.
…………
Shen Yao did not leave the house for the first three days after the end of the hot rainy season.
There was a minor accident one night, but fortunately Cheng Qi was at home and it was resolved smoothly.
After the watch announced that the hot and rainy season was over and the base personnel could move around freely, Shen Yao finally had the opportunity to get some fresh air.
At the same time, Cheng Qi got a short vacation. The two of them discussed privately and decided to use their points to rent a patrol car, take the Shen and Cheng family members, and head straight to the pond outside the base.
What's in the pond? Not to mention the distant places, the lotus roots under the lotuses can be dug.
"There are pheasants on the hillside ahead, and wild fruits around." The pond is rarely visited by people, so a group of them drove here in a mighty procession, hoping to take advantage of the time difference to harvest some.
Even Father Cheng and Brother Cheng were there, and it was obvious that everyone liked the lotus roots in the pond.
The men went into the water wearing thick raincoats, and the women went around the shore to flatten the man-high weeds.
Shen Yao also picked up a few pheasant eggs. Apparently, no one cared about the pheasants during the hot rainy season, which allowed the flock of pheasants to grow a lot bigger.
"We can eat chicken tonight," Zhao Xue smiled and threw away the wild vegetables in her hand, her desire for fresh meat growing stronger and stronger.
Shen Yao put the pheasant eggs into the backpack, being careful not to trip over the roots. "Yes, there are some freshwater fish in the pond. It would be nice to make some freshwater fish soup when we get back."
It’s a bit boring to eat dried meat all the time. The Cheng family and they have no shortage of meat, but fresh meat tastes better than frozen meat.
The two were enjoying the future while working, and then they heard someone shouting in the river about delivering the goods, so they quickly got up and ran over to help.
Fish as long as arms swarmed out of the river with a crackling sound, like rain.
Occasionally, a few longer and larger fish would appear, and all of them would pass the inspection and be put into sacks.
By the time everyone took a break at noon, the pond was filled with the smell of fish, but the lotus roots that they had wanted to dig from the beginning were only a small pile.
Because the lotus roots are all buried in the mud, it is very difficult to dig out fresh lotus roots unless the water in the pond has drained away.
But it is not that difficult to catch the fish in the pond. After the hot rainy season, the water in the pond decreases a lot. Some fish that swam in during the hot rainy season are unable to leave and are trapped and died in the pond.
This is also the reason why there is a rain of fish in the pond, simply because there are too many fish.
Father Cheng and Brother Cheng suggested that they catch fish first and then lotus roots, and as for catching chickens, they should do that before leaving.
"Everyone is free these days, come every day and try to transport the goods back."
As expected of a leader, Mr. Cheng has his own way of speaking and can set the general direction with just a few words.
Cheng Ma and the others had no reason to object, and the Shen family even said they would follow their in-laws in everything.
Now, after a rest, everyone went into the water again and started to fish and salvage with their own skills.
Shen Yao stayed by the river, picking up and testing fish. Those that could not be taken away were buried on the spot, and those that passed the test were put into sacks, tied up, and sent to the car.
There were fewer and fewer fish in the pond. We caught some shrimps, clams, and even some slippery eels that looked like snakes.
Without exception, everything that is edible is packed up and taken away, but it is a pity that there are no pearls in the river clams, and the ordinary clam meat can only be used as a topping.
"Yaoyao, let's go pick up some eggs. We should go back to the base soon."
Zhao Xue called Shen Yao, and the two of them went to a nearby hillside together.
Song Ling and Cheng Ma are still busy catching fish by the pond. Whether they can have chicken and stewed eggs tonight depends entirely on how hard they work.
Shen Yao showed the crossbow she carried with her and asked Zhao Xue to try not to speak so as not to alarm the pheasants and scare them away.
Zhao Xue's eyes widened slightly. She never expected that her sister-in-law had such ability.
Rubbing her numb arms, Zhao Xue thought about what happened at home during this hot rainy season.
whoosh-
The pheasant that had just appeared fell to the ground instantly.
Shen Yao patted Zhao Xue and asked him to go and pick it up, while she shot arrows at the pheasants around.
Pheasant eggs are basically everywhere, and you can fill up your backpack by just picking them up for a while.
There were too many for them to carry back, and considering that they had to share some with Song Ling and Cheng Ma, the two of them each picked up half a basket, then picked up the dead pheasants and walked back with their heads down, grunting.
"Oh, there are so many pheasants on the hillside?" Song Ling looked jealous and wanted to go over and pick some.
"Aunt Song, this time it's thanks to Yaoyao that she brought the tools, otherwise we could only pick up pheasant eggs." All the pheasants flew away, and they couldn't catch up with any of them.
We brought back four, one for each family (Cheng Ma and Zhao Xue count as two families).
The pheasant eggs were divided according to the number of people. Shen Yao put the pheasant on the top, clapped his hands, and returned to the car to rest.
The fishy smell was still too strong. With sacks piled up on top of each other, no one from the three families could eat so much.
You can simply drive your car to the redemption center, sell a batch of cars in advance for points, and then distribute the rest equally, with each car owner leaving with their own share.
Before leaving, Cheng's father mentioned that he had already made some plans for the house in Area B, and he prepared his points in case he was blocked.
"Is there such a thing?" Song Ling was surprised. She had originally planned to sell the house she lived in first and then buy a new house in District B. So, it seems that she can only sell it in advance.
"There are not many houses for sale in Area B, and people from outside want to move in," so many people will try to find ways to do so, and the middlemen who make a living by selling houses have reaped countless benefits from this.
It makes me angry when I talk about this, so Cheng's mother gives me some advice as someone who has experienced it.
After all, Area B where Cheng Ma and her family live was bought at a huge price back then.
Because they bought in a hurry, Cheng Ma and her friends even lost a lot of points.
Thinking about it now, Cheng's mother still feels angry and wants to pull the real estate agent over and beat him up. It's really hateful.
Song Ling: …
After hearing this, Song Ling became more determined to sell the house, and reminded Shen Yao to hurry up.
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao watched them leave with a smile, then turned around and sighed with Cheng Qi.
"I don't have many points at home. I sold some food, but I'm afraid there won't be any fish left."
At this time, no matter what you sell, it is valuable, and the amount of fish they get is not small.
Shen Yao plans to keep some to make dried fish and salted fish, and sell the rest. While the fish is still fresh, the price can be raised.
"Sell it. We'll go to the pond in the next few days. We'll deal with the moving once we're done."
This mild season requires them to work hard to collect, because the cold season is longer than the hot rainy season, and double the food is considered safe.
The two of them worked together to carry the sack into the yard, and Shen Yao took photos with her watch and uploaded them as usual.
She even called out to all the neighbors around her, saying that they were all big consumers and that the money should be kept within the family.
In the evening, they had chicken stewed with fresh lotus root and delicious fish soup. They put the leftovers in the refrigerator, washed up, and fell into a deep sleep.
Wait until the next morning to heat up the leftovers from last night and have a delicious breakfast.
The car was not returned yet and Cheng Qi continued to drive it. The same group of people from yesterday were still sitting in the car. They would not consider moving until they had fully exploited all the benefits around the pond.
