Chapter 147 Acid Rain is Coming
Su Cheng brought a lot of supplies this time, thanking Lu Xingtang and others for helping to retrieve the photo album, and also came to help install tempered glass.
Lu Xingtang helped carry the lighter supplies and followed Su Cheng. When they returned to the top of the mountain, they were exhausted.
When Su Cheng saw Ji Yanmo installing tempered glass, he immediately put the supplies on the ground and asked Lu Xingtang to take them home. Then he walked to Ji Yanmo and installed the tempered glass with him.
Seeing Su Cheng and Ji Yanmo installing tempered glass together, Lu Xingtang quietly brought the supplies back home and brewed a pot of tea for them. The tea was wild tea from the mountains. They had found a tea tree while cutting trees, so they picked some leaves and transplanted the tea tree to the black soil in the space. From now on, they can drink tea whenever they want.
He took two chairs and a small table, put tea on the table, and asked them to sit down and rest for a while if they were tired. Lu Xingtang went back to the kitchen to cook a sumptuous meal for the two people who were working to eat more.
In my consciousness, I am also working in the space. Six warehouses are classified and placed. One warehouse is for weapons, hardware and general merchandise, and another warehouse is for cars, airplanes and other fuel, gasoline, diesel, etc.
The food occupied two warehouses. In addition to the food, vegetables, fruits, meat, seafood, etc. that had been stored before, there were also vegetables and fruits produced in the space. One warehouse was not enough, so an additional warehouse was added to facilitate future storage.
Clothes and other miscellaneous items were placed in one warehouse, with clothes on the fifth and sixth floors, and miscellaneous items on the four floors below. Medicines, fresh herbs, and seeds were also stored in one warehouse. The amount of herbs increased daily, so a separate warehouse was necessary to stockpile them.
I knew she had cooked the meal, but she still hadn’t finished cleaning up because there were simply too many supplies.
After dinner, Lu Xingtang made tea and put a pot of boiled water, and joined in the work.
Su Cheng helped with the work for two days and then went back. His special assistant came to look for him. The special assistant was able to find Su Cheng because Su Cheng told the special assistant about his coming to Qing'an Peak and the fact that Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo lived in Qing'an Peak. He only told the special assistant and did not tell the other special assistant.
When the special assistant came, he also brought two sets of protective clothing, which were produced by their base factory.
The research team has predicted that there will be thick fog after the acid rain, which will last for a long time, so they asked the base director to go back and discuss countermeasures.
Su Cheng couldn't help Lu Xingtang and the others build a bunker, but he told them about the acid rain and thick fog and asked them to hurry up and install the tempered glass, stock up on supplies, and not go out.
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo didn't want people from the base to come and help install the stainless steel glass, as they were worried that some bad guys would come to Qing'an Peak to steal their supplies while they were back at the base.
When Su Cheng left, Lu Xingtang gave him a pig's trotter and asked him to stew it after returning to the base: "Which special assistant?" The man was very tactful and did not climb to the top of the mountain. Instead, when he was almost at the top, he shouted and asked Su Cheng to go down, so he did not see the situation on the top of the mountain.
Su Cheng said: "This person is trustworthy. I have tested him many times. His character is that of a loyal dog!" He is loyal to one person and will never betray him!
The other special assistant is smart, cunning, and trustworthy, but compared to the loyal special assistant, he feels more at ease with the loyal special assistant.
"Always be on guard against others!" Lu Xingtang was not stupid enough to let Su Cheng be on guard against anyone. After all, he was the base commander. If he could not delegate power, it would not be safe for him.
Su Cheng felt warm inside, knowing his friend was just worried about him: "Don't worry, I know what's going on! At worst, I'll just go get some free food and drinks from you guys!"
"I'm not afraid of just eating and drinking, I just hope you can live well!"
Before Su Cheng left, he said, "Before the acid rain comes, hurry up and stock up on supplies. If they are not enough, come to the base to get them!" The two of them would not need much supplies, so all the supplies under his name could be given to them.
As soon as Su Cheng left, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo worked overtime to install the tempered glass. They finally completed the installation on March 25th.
After it was done, the two of them tested it with water to see if any water would seep in. The result was perfect, with no water seepage at all.
That afternoon, they drove a truck to the base. The last time Su Cheng left, he did not drive the truck away because both Su Cheng and his loyal assistant were driving cars and it was impossible to drive the truck away.
When sending the truck back to the base, Su Cheng gave them some more supplies. The quantity was quite large. Su Cheng said with a heavy face, "The research team has confirmed that there will be thick fog after the acid rain, but they can't be sure when the fog will end! I don't think I can go to Qing'an Peak to find you. You must stock up on supplies and don't go out!"
"Thick fog? When will it come?" Lu Xingtang asked.
"Probably within half a month after the acid rain!" The research team did not dare to guarantee the exact time.
Su Cheng drove them back to the foot of Qing'an Peak. He didn't have much time to accompany Lu Xingtang and the others, so he left the supplies on the road and turned back. Lu Xingtang and the others put the supplies into the space and did not return to the mountain immediately. Instead, they went to the nearby mountains to hunt or chop wood. Although they did not lack these supplies, they still had to prepare them.
On the evening of March 26, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo checked the tempered glass again. After confirming that there was no problem, they pumped all the water in the pond into a water tower or buckets.
Then we came to the platform and observed the situation of the base. The base has been built into a bunker. All the buildings are covered with tempered glass. The planting areas, breeding farms, and medicinal herb farms are also covered with tempered glass.
Moreover, in the apocalypse, the ingredients of tempered glass, such as silica sand, sodium carbonate, limestone, and aluminum oxide, are extremely difficult to find. It is conceivable how hard Su Cheng worked during this period and how much effort the base put in.
"I hope Su Cheng can survive the acid rain, and we can survive too!" Having tempered glass is just an extra layer of life-saving means, and it does not mean that you can really sleep soundly. Even if you can survive the acid rain, you may not be able to survive the thick fog.
Ji Yanmo hugged Lu Xingtang tightly: "No matter what the result is, I will always be by your side! I will never leave."
At five o'clock in the morning on March 27, acid rain began to fall.
When Lu Xingtang heard the sound of rain, he got up quietly, put on his clothes, and tiptoed out of the room to check whether the tempered glass was corroded by acid rain, and whether the acid rain had entered the house, or the pigpen, cattle and sheep pen.
While checking the pigpen, Lu Xingtang was suddenly hugged from behind. Feeling the familiar breath, Lu Xingtang relaxed: "Why are you up?"
"My wife is already up, how can I not get up?" Ji Yanmo reached out and took the flashlight: "I'll check it out, you go back to the room and rest!"
