Chapter 223 Perfect Base
The boy nodded and said, "Yes, these infrastructures were already built when this place was being built."
"The communicator signal is relayed via a communications satellite. We've also built a base station here, so the signal is very good."
"I heard from the technicians that even if you go out, you'll still have a signal, but it will be weaker."
Director Wang approached Lin Xi and whispered, "Those who live here should be the dignitaries of the capital."
Lin Xi nodded. She now remembered why Shen Jun looked familiar. He looked very similar to a certain big boss. He was probably the big boss's son.
Sure enough, the powerful are the powerful. Even at the end of the world, they can still drive sports cars, live in garden houses, and still lead a comfortable life.
Lin Xi thought for a moment and asked the boy again: "Aren't there any zombies here?"
The boy shuddered and said, "Yes, there was one before, but we killed him quickly."
"On the day the meteorite fell, we were all hiding in the underground shelter and everyone was fine."
"After kneeling for a few days, we went to the mountains to hunt for something to eat. Unexpectedly, we encountered a zombie monkey."
"At first we didn't know it was a zombie. We just thought the monkey looked strange. Its movements were stiff, its body was covered in blood, and even its pupils were white."
“Everyone just thought it was strange and didn’t pay too much attention to it.”
"The monkey doesn't have much meat, and I'm not planning on hitting it."
"We didn't expect the monkey to suddenly jump over and bite one of our hunting team members. We then smashed the monkey's head in."
"But before long, we gradually discovered that the companion who was bitten was not acting normally."
"He started to shiver, veins popped out on his face, and his pupils gradually turned white."
"Then he tried to bite someone, and Shen Jun threw a fireball and burned him to death."
"We didn't dare go hunting again. We returned to the base, turned on the electric fence, and didn't go out again."
Lin Xi nodded.
Song Huaijin suddenly asked again, "Then where does your water come from?"
The boy said: "There are two water systems."
"One set is the river water that is brought in, which is purified and disinfected before being used for bathing, watering the land, etc."
"For drinking water, we use groundwater. We drilled several deep wells, about two to three hundred meters deep."
The boy also explained: "Only groundwater this deep is free from pollution."
"However, the water is purified and disinfected after it is pumped, and then boiled before it is consumed."
Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh, "How thoughtful."
"Where does the food come from?"
The boy seemed a little proud. "There's plenty of food."
"Several nearby mountains have been hollowed out and a lot of food has been stored there."
“There’s also a large plot of land behind the work area where you can grow food.”
"Every household has land in front and back where they can grow vegetables."
"There's a farm over there with cows, sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks and so on."
“Oh, there’s also an artificial lake with lots of fish in it.”
Song Huaijin asked curiously, "Which district do you live in?"
The boy was a little embarrassed and said, "I live in the ninth district."
“The first five districts are all inhabited by bigwigs.”
"The most powerful boss lives in District 1. Shen Jun's family lives in District 1."
"Districts six, seven, and eight are scientists."
"District 9 is home to some wealthy people who are very close to the powerful."
"For example, my family spent a large sum of money to build the base ten years ago. Every household in District 9 paid to be able to live here."
"The minimum is 1 billion."
Qi Mo narrowed his eyes. He had a hunch that Qi Yunjiang, his mistress and two illegitimate children were probably in District 9.
"The tenth district was originally intended for the wealthy to live in, but there aren't many wealthy people there, and the ninth district isn't even fully occupied yet, so that's where it's vacant."
After hearing this, Director Wang couldn't help but tease Song Huaijin, "Look at you, you're a well-known wealthy man, how come you don't even know this kind of news!"
Song Huaijin thought for a moment, "Ten years ago, someone mentioned this to me, but I refused. At that time, I was so eager for the end of the world to come that I didn't care about building a base."
"After the rejection, I didn't take it to heart."
He glanced at Director Wang and asked, "What about you?"
"You're a director after all, and your rank isn't low. How come you only found out about the asteroid impact last month?"
Director Wang said angrily, "Damn it, it's because I don't have anyone above me! I just realized now that maybe in their eyes, I'm just a tool!"
Lin Xi teased, "There are still many big guys living in the first few districts. What are you going to do when you meet them later?"
Director Wang snorted, "Cut it off!"
"I just pretended I didn't recognize him."
As he spoke, the boy pointed to a group of bungalows in front and said, "This is District 10."
He stopped and said timidly, "Can I go now?"
Director Wang said angrily, "Get lost."
The boy ran away quickly.
They walked to the first house on the side of the road.
There is a lawn in the yard. When I went in and turned on the lights, I saw that the furniture and appliances were all there, just a little dusty.
Director Wang was very satisfied and said to Lin Xi, "Let them all come out."
Lin Xi nodded and said, "Go into the space and tell everyone first, so that they won't run around everywhere."
Several people returned to the space.
Director Wang picked up the loud speaker and shouted, "Everyone, come out and gather! Come out and gather quickly!"
In more than ten minutes, everyone came out and arrived at the square one after another.
Director Wang announced loudly, "I have good news for everyone. We have found the Xishan base."
"The living conditions here are very good, and there are no zombies. Everyone can live here with peace of mind."
"There are many houses. Each family can choose one. Don't fight over them or make a scene."
"Lin Xi will put the daily necessities that everyone brought with them on the roadside. You can take them back."
"Do you understand everything? If you understand, then get ready to go out!"
Everyone shouted, "Got it!"
Lin Xi moved her mind and moved everyone in the square out.
Looking at the neatly arranged houses, everyone was very surprised, "Is this the base?"
“The conditions here are pretty good.”
"Oh, it's a waste to plant flowers and plants on this land."
Many people don’t even have the luxury of living in a house like this at home.
Lin Fenfang chose a house, which was a large flat and not much smaller than her previous house.
Qi Mo's house is still next door.
The house Song Huaijin chose was right next to Lin Xi's house. He asked Yu Huai to live with him, saying that the house would be too big and a waste for one person to live in.
Director Wang lives next to Song Huaijin's house, and several of their homes are on the same street.
Everyone chose a house, and the supplies were piled up on the street, and the laborers in the families carried them back home.
There is also a TV in the room.
Lin Yuan opened it curiously and thought, is there anything else to play here? It's probably just some old movies playing over and over again.
