End of the World

"These steel plates should be okay, right?" Wu Bin asked Zhao Bofeng after pulling the steel plates back. If not, he didn't know where to get the steel plates.

"These are all used on construction sites. They are not very ideal. It may take some time to design them!" Zhao Bofeng looked at the steel plates. The thickness was acceptable, but the metal properties were not ideal and the strength was slightly lacking. It would be best to design them to be disassembled so that they could be replaced when better materials were found in the future.

"It's okay, we can take it slow!" Wu Bin knew that there was no way to get better materials, so making do with this was better than nothing.

"There is another problem. Both the cutting machine and the welding machine require electricity!" Zhao Bofeng said. It is necessary to ensure that the voltage is stable during the modification process in order to ensure the progress and quality of the modification.

"That's no problem, we have a diesel generator!" Wu Bin thought of the generator still in the storage box at the back of the MAN eight-wheel drive off-road RV. He had originally gotten it from a gas station and had not left it behind when he evacuated the factory.

"That's no problem. I'll think about the design ideas." Zhao Bofeng was relieved to hear that there was a generator. The voltage was definitely enough. It all depended on his performance next.

Wu Bin called Dafeng and the others, and once again took great effort to pull out the generator so that it could be used at any time.

"Don't stuff this thing there next time. I can hardly pull it out!" Dafeng gasped with exhaustion.

"Yes!" Surprisingly, this time Qiao Xinghua and Dafeng stood on the same side.

"There's no need to be so particular when evacuating the factory!" Wu Bin patted the generator. At that time, everything was stuffed in randomly. Fortunately, the RV was big enough.

"Isn't it inappropriate to put these things here?" Wu Bin and his companions had just set up the generator when they heard Meng Zihan's voice. She came out of the RV and saw the steel plates that Wu Bin and his companions had unloaded placed outside the door.

"It's indeed inappropriate!" Wu Bin had no intention of putting the steel plate at the door, as it would block the door.

"Zi Han, go get some rice. I need to go out and get some other stuff." Wu Bin looked at the steel plates piled on the ground. This pile of stuff could only be placed in a circle or directly under the car. He could also go out and get some materials to fix the surrounding walls.

After getting the rice, Wu Bin and Da Feng pulled a flatbed cart to the market to buy materials. After a round of the market, they basically exchanged most of the materials, and of course, they also exchanged the rice in their hands.

There were so many things they bought that Wu Bin and Dafeng almost couldn't pull the cart back. As expected, the two of them pulling such a cart of things attracted a lot of attention. Everyone thought they were either fools for going to the market to exchange for such a bunch of useless things.

Back at the RV camp, the men used these things to fence off the RVs and build a small yard. The things they exchanged for included wooden stakes and barbed wire. The barbed wire was left by the troops. It couldn't stop the zombies, so the troops didn't want it. It was just right for Wu Bin and his men to use it to build a fence. The wooden stakes were placed at intervals, and the barbed wire was wrapped around it and covered with a layer of waterproof cloth to block the eyes of outsiders. The barbed wire fence was very simple and had more decorative function than practical significance.

Zhao Bofeng temporarily stopped the modification work and first used the exchanged wooden boards to make two large doors. It was an easy task for Zhao Bofeng. After installing the wooden doors, he went back to think about his ideas.

"It's absolutely perfect!" Everyone looked at the fruits of their labor. Maybe they were a little crude and not very beautiful, but it couldn't stop the joy in their hearts. Compared with the simple tents that could accommodate several people, it was already a mansion of a wealthy family.

The happiest ones were the girls, as they no longer had to stay in the RV the whole day and could go out for some fresh air. They had come out before, but the looks from the people around them made them very uncomfortable, and they basically stayed in the car for fear of causing trouble, which was quite uncomfortable.

Wu Bin was very satisfied looking at the RV and the courtyard. It felt a bit like home and the campsite became warm.

When Fang Xiaoyun and Chen Guangjun came back in the evening, they almost didn't recognize that this was a campsite. If they hadn't been able to see the roof of the RV outside, they would have thought that everyone had moved away.

"Not bad! It doesn't look so depressing." Chen Guangjun glanced at the wall. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was simple, but it temporarily separated the outside world and gave people a kind of spiritual comfort.

Fang Xiaoyun nodded in agreement. The campsite now had a touch of homely feel. Here she could temporarily forget about the horrible scenery outside. It was like a small world.

The three girls took Xiao Yuanxin to light a small bonfire with the remaining wood next to the RV, feeling the tranquility of the moment. Fang Xiaoyun went over to join them, and being with them helped her relax her body and mind.

Wu Bin and his friends were busy preparing for dinner. They set up tables and chairs in the small courtyard and lit candles on the tables, which made the atmosphere more cozy.

After the meal, everyone gathered together and ate the seemingly simple but very delicious food. No one went to collect rations today, and the food on the table was all stored in the car. Compared with the outside world, this was already a rich life.

After the meal, everyone did not disperse. Instead, they gathered together to brag and chat, occasionally laughing out loud. Of course, they were relatively restrained so as not to affect others.

"Sister Yun, how are your things going?" Wu Bin looked at Fang Xiaoyun and Chen Guangjun. The two had no arrangements yesterday, so there should be results today.

"Everything has been arranged, but I..." Fang Xiaoyun wanted to say something but didn't say it.

"Just what?" Wu Bin asked, seeing that she was a little embarrassed to speak.

"Xiao Yun was molested by some bastard today!" Chen Guangjun pounded the table, looking a little angry.

"Flirting?" Wu Bin frowned, not quite understanding what it meant. Wasn't he going to look for a job?

"There's a crappy director in the hospital!" Chen Guangjun wanted to slap that guy hard when he thought of his face.

"In that case, Sister Yun, what are you going to do?" Wu Bin looked at Fang Xiaoyun. He didn't want her to go there. Who knew what would happen next? It all depended on her own wishes.

"I've learned about it. The director of the medical office has some background and has connections in the Government Affairs Office!" Chen Guangjun had inquired about it. He also suggested that Fang Xiaoyun should not go there, but ask Zhu Zhenguo later if she could be arranged to work in a military hospital.

"They only see doctors and don't cure diseases. It won't be of much use if I go there!" This is what makes Fang Xiaoyun angry. What's the difference between this and being in name only? What's the point of setting up a hospital if it can't cure diseases and save lives?

"Then let's not go. There's no point!" Wu Bin said. He couldn't understand the meaning of setting up a hospital in the shelter but not treating patients and saving lives. He was more worried about Fang Xiaoyun's safety.

Fang Xiaoyun nodded. She decided to follow Wu Bin's advice. Besides, there was a disgusting director there.

"Captain, I will be returning to the team tomorrow and will have to stay in the army, so you don't have to prepare dinner for me tomorrow night!"

"When can you come back? Which unit will you be assigned to?" Wu Bin asked so that everyone could look for you.

"I don't know, I haven't been assigned yet!" Chen Guangjun shook his head. The military just asked him to report in the morning. Since he was a special police officer and had served in the army, he didn't need to undergo training and was directly assigned to the unit.

"Okay, I'll just ask Lao Zhu later." Wu Bin also knew that this was an initial allocation and had not been finalized yet.

The next morning, Chen Guangjun said goodbye to everyone and went to join the army. Everyone got up early to see him off. Although they had not been together for a long time, as people who came from the factory together, they had already formed a life-and-death friendship and regarded each other as the most important partners.

Looking at Chen Guangjun's slowly receding back, everyone prayed in their hearts, hoping that he would return safely.

Chen Guangjun did not look back, for he was afraid that he could not bear it. Although the average age of this team was only 20 years old, he had already integrated into the team and was able to get along with everyone. There was no sense of generation gap at all. Following everyone, he seemed to feel a lot younger.

Arriving at the registration office, Chen Guangjun composed himself and decided that when he was on a mission, he could not have any romantic feelings. His ultimate mission was to try his best to return alive.

There were quite a few people like Chen Guangjun at the registration office. Everyone had a different expression, but everyone had the same goal, to join the army to defend the base and avenge their dead relatives and friends.

"Chen Guangjun!" A major officer called out his name.

"Here!" Chen Guangjun answered loudly, taking a step forward with firm and powerful steps.

"After getting your equipment from the logistics department, report to the Third Battalion!"

"Yes!"

Chen Guangjun received his equipment and took a car out of the city with a dozen other people. The third battalion's defense zone was outside, and he was assigned to the second company of the third battalion.

ps: Second update. This chapter is also short of nearly 500 words, which is due to random changes. I would like to make a special statement that if there are no accidents, I will generally update once a day. Thank you for the support of all the book friends who read my books!
