“Brother Liu, you don’t need to be so harsh on them. I believe most people are kind. As long as we give them the right guidance and enough care, and reason with them, they will definitely show a better side of themselves,” Zhao Yuxuan said softly to Liu Zhen.

“Hey~” Liu Zhen smiled wryly, “Miss Yuxuan, you don’t know, the people here have nothing to do all day long. They just revolve around the little bit of supplies. They have no hope for life, so they are prone to losing control of their emotions. If I don’t act tough, I’m afraid they won’t even listen to me.”

Zhao Yuxuan frowned upon hearing this: "If that's the case, why not let everyone find something to do?"

Liu Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then his bitter smile deepened: "You make it sound so easy, but where is it so easy to find suitable work for them? We can't compare to your Tianyu Base here, which has complete facilities and resources. Resources are scarce here, and we are often threatened by the outside world. It's good enough if we can barely make a living."

Zhao Yuxuan gently shook her head, her eyes full of determination: "Brother Liu, that's precisely why we should work even harder to change the current situation. Tianyu Base also started from nothing, didn't it? As long as we unite as one and use our brains, we will definitely find a suitable path for development here."

“It’s like the igloos we all live in. I see that many of them are crooked and don’t look safe at all. We can organize a construction team to teach everyone how to reinforce the houses and even try to build warmer and sturdier dwellings. This will not only solve everyone’s housing safety problem, but also allow everyone to find a sense of belonging and accomplishment in their work,” Zhao Yuxuan continued.

"If we can build a tall wall around it, it can not only prevent external threats, but also protect the community from the cold wind to a certain extent, providing a more solid protection for the community."

“We can also dig wood in the snow. Although it will be a tough process, these are valuable resources that can be used to build houses, make furniture, and as fuel to keep everyone warm. I even know a little about generators. If conditions permit, we can use the wood we dig up to build a small power station to provide electricity for the community. That way, the nights won't be pitch black anymore. We can have lights and even simple electronic devices, making everyone's lives more colorful.” Zhao Yuxuan became more and more excited as she spoke, her eyes sparkling with anticipation for the future.

"Furthermore, our children here also need education; they can't just sit around doing nothing. We can set up a small education center to teach them to read and write, as well as some basic survival skills. This is crucial for their future and the long-term development of the entire community."

"besides……"

Liu Zhen was stunned by Zhao Yuxuan's words. Seeing that she was getting more and more outrageous, he couldn't help but interrupt her, saying, "Miss Yuxuan, your ideas are all very good, but I'm afraid they will be very difficult to implement. We have limited manpower and resources here, and the external environment is also very harsh. What you've said will require a lot of time and energy to prepare and realize."

"There will definitely be difficulties, but I believe that as long as we work together, there are always more solutions than problems," Zhao Yuxuan said firmly. "We can take it one step at a time, starting with the most urgent and pressing issues. For example, reinforcing the houses and building the walls are both urgent and easy tasks, and they are not difficult either, so we can start immediately. At the same time, we can organize some people to dig for timber to prepare for the subsequent construction of the power station."

“Miss Yuxuan, it’s so cold outside now. Is it really necessary to have everyone reinforce the houses and repair the walls? As long as the houses are habitable, there’s no need to sacrifice them for a ‘vanity project.’ And about what you said about digging up timber to build a power plant, where can we find any timber around here? The timber we use for boiling water and cooking every day is dug up from the mountains more than ten kilometers away. Where would we find any extra timber to build a power plant?” Liu Zhen sighed, his tone tinged with helplessness.

“Brother Liu, reinforcing the houses is not just a ‘vanity project,’ but a very necessary thing. In my opinion, many of these houses are dilapidated. They may collapse in bad weather, posing a serious threat to the safety of the residents,” Zhao Yuxuan said earnestly.

"Okay, fine, I'll do as you say." Liu Zhen nodded reluctantly.

"As for the timber issue, I'm not saying we can build a power plant immediately, but we can make plans and preparations first. We can organize an expedition to search for timber resources in more distant places, or explore whether there are other alternative energy sources. Even, if all else fails, we can relocate. The world is vast, there's plenty of timber buried under the snow, and there are 'building materials' everywhere that can be used to build houses. As long as we're willing to search, we'll find them eventually," Zhao Yuxuan continued, her eyes gleaming with an indomitable spirit.

“Relocate? This…this is probably not possible. You don’t know, we finally managed to occupy this advantageous location close to the Tianyu Base. We have priority when receiving relief from the Tianyu Base. If we move away, we won’t be able to enjoy these special rights anymore.” Liu Zhen waved his hands repeatedly.

Zhao Yuxuan frowned slightly upon hearing this. She really couldn't understand why the people here, who all had hands and feet, would rely so much on external aid instead of being self-reliant.

Seeing that Zhao Yuxuan's expression was not good, Liu Zhen was startled and quickly said, "Miss Yuxuan, you are right, we should strive to improve ourselves! However, I am a rough and uncultured man and do not know much about these things. I hope Miss Yuxuan can give us more guidance and lead us out of our predicament."
