"Boss, great news! The yard is all set up!"

Qin Jiayou couldn't help but smile, he was very happy. As for the things inside the tent, because he couldn't bear to throw them away, Qin Jiayou sent them all to the newly built courtyard.

"Really? That's great! Let's go check it out together!"

Wei Lun's eyes lit up, as if he saw a pile of gold ahead. Because of the courtyard, he would no longer need to cross the dangerous mountains and forests when he traveled back in the future. He could travel directly from the garden villa to the courtyard in the post-apocalyptic world, which would be both safe and time-saving.

The Qin father and daughter walked out of the tent with Wei Lun. The Qin father and daughter looked back at the tent one last time. This was the last time they would stay here. From now on, they would live with Wei Lun in the newly built courtyard, where they would no longer have to worry about the wind, sun, or uneven temperature.

Outside the base, Zeng Guangtian sat on a truck, having been specifically instructed by Qin Jiayou to wait there for the boss to return; everyone was on standby at all times.

Wei Lun and the Qin family father and daughter arrived at the truck. Zeng Guangtian was fast asleep, slumped over the steering wheel.

"Old Zeng, wake up!"

Looking at Zeng Guangtian sleeping soundly, Qin Jiayou felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to face his boss. In fact, Zeng Guangtian and his team had been working day and night to rush the construction of the new courtyard, putting in a lot of effort. Now that it was finally completed and decorated, the exhausted Zeng Guangtian fell asleep as soon as he lay down, even forgetting whether the environment was safe or not.

"Boss! I'm sorry, well, I just couldn't hold on."

Zeng Guangtian scratched the back of his head, his face flushed, and stammered. He looked at the boss apologetically and immediately got up and left.

"Now that the yard is all set up, this truck is no longer needed. Go and take the workers who are still in the yard back to the base, and return the truck as well!"

Wei Lun already had a plan in mind, because there were many abandoned cars on the side of the road, but those cars were all without gasoline and were all unwanted by others. The reason why the outpost took in this truck was simply because it had some gasoline inside.

"Boss, without the truck, it will be inconvenient for us to get in and out in the future."

Zeng Guangtian considered that he would need to come to the base to trade frequently in the future, so he needed a car. But how did he know that Wei Lun had ways to get a car?

"Do as I say, you can go now!"

After giving his instructions, Wei Lun walked towards a parked air-hovering car not far away. It was a car similar to a modern car, but interestingly, it burned gasoline to provide a continuous source of kinetic energy. This kinetic energy was then converted to propel the air at high speed, allowing the car to hover as if it were floating.

Simply put, this is a small flying vehicle, but a car that can fly, usually suspended about 1 meter above the ground, and can carry 5 people.

Qin Jiayou followed and looked at Wei Lun with a completely bewildered expression.

"Boss, this car is more advanced, but it won't start without gasoline."

Qin Jiayou guessed that the boss was most interested in this car, but in the apocalypse, these were all vehicles that had been deliberately abandoned. Without gasoline, they couldn't start at all. As for the car key? This kind of car didn't need a key; it only needed an AI connection to confirm the driver's identity to start.

"Gasoline? Interesting. A car that doesn't even have a wheel hub actually needs energy to power it."

Wei Lun was very curious, but he didn't have anything else, but he had as much gasoline as he wanted. He still had a lot of gasoline he bought at the gas station last time.

Reaching the car, Wei Lun took out a can of gasoline, located the filler neck, and poured it in.

Qin Jiayou saw that Wei Lun had only walked to the side of the air-levitating car, and then he saw the boss take out a can of oil. What kind of trick was this? Could the boss really carry such a can of oil with him? That doesn't make sense. However, it's best not to discuss the boss's affairs too much.

Qin Jiayou remained silent, watching the shopkeeper fill up the gas tank with a blank expression. Qin Mutong, on the other hand, gazed at Wei Lun's handsome face. In her heart, whether there was gas or not didn't matter. Even if they had to walk, she was willing to accompany Wei Lun to the ends of the earth.

"All done! Get in the car!"

Wei Lun pulled on the car door, only to find that it wouldn't open.

"Brother Qin, how do I open this door?"

Wei Lun seemed to be from another era, which made Qin Jiayou even more puzzled. If the boss was from the shelter, he should recognize this car. Could it be that the boss was a landlord in a remote village? The kind who collected rent?

"Boss, all you need to do is connect the AI."

As Qin Jiayou spoke, he stepped forward and pressed a button on the AI: "AI, connect to the vehicle!"

"Connecting you... Connection confirmed, welcome."

When he opened the car door again, it opened easily. Wei Lun looked like a country bumpkin. Although this kind of air-hovering car was not something that could be bought casually before the apocalypse, most people had seen it. Someone like Wei Lun, who didn't even know how to get in the car, had really never seen one before.

After getting into the car, Qin Jiayou operated the cockpit, while Qin Mutong and Wei Lun sat together in the back seat.

"Brother Qin, let's go and see how the courtyard is doing."

Wei Lun held Qin Mutong in one arm and gestured for Qin Jiayou to drive with the other.

The biggest advantage of air-suspended cars is their extremely low friction and fuel consumption. While a regular car uses 7 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers, an air-suspended car only needs 1 liter per 100 kilometers. This is because energy conversion technology in the post-apocalyptic world is already highly advanced, and any machine that flies at low altitudes is the most fuel-efficient.

In just 5 minutes, the car arrived at the completed yard.

From a distance, it looked like a palace. The walls were exceptionally thick, and inside was a three-story Western-style building, covering an area of ​​100 square meters, with a spacious courtyard. A small moat-like channel was built on the outermost side of the courtyard, surrounding the entire courtyard. If zombies attacked, they would fall into the ditch as soon as they reached the edge of the courtyard and would not be able to climb out.

Of course, this design can defend against zombies to some extent, but if there are too many of them, or if zombie mutants appear, you will still need to use powerful weapons to kill them.

Zhu Guanjun, the guard on the courtyard wall, was patrolling with a gun. Seeing an unidentified vehicle approaching, he immediately aimed and prepared to fire.

"Stop advancing! I am ordering you to stop now, or I will shoot you!"

Zhu Guanjun didn't hold back at all, holding a walkie-talkie and shouting, his voice blaring from the loudspeaker.

Qin Jiayou poked his head out and waved his arms: "Zhu Guanjun, the boss is here, open the door!"
