Zhou Zhengping blushed and turned away embarrassedly, "We are an old couple, and you still say things that young people like to say."
Lu Ya looked at him and tried not to laugh, "Who wants to be with you, an old married woman? I'm still a young flower." She had him under her control and liked to tease him when she saw a different expression on his serious face.
The two of them ate fried chicken together. Lu Ya rummaged through some bag and took out a few bottles of Coke.
There is a crisp "click" sound when you open a Coke can. It is the sound of the can opening and also the sound of the carbonated beverage being released.
Lu Ya shared the wonderful things she saw at the B&B: "Life there is so wonderful. It's like dreaming back to the days before the apocalypse. I feel like I'm walking downstairs to the snack street and 7-Eleven."
"Is it really that good?" Zhou Zhengping didn't disbelieve her, he just felt that her description was comparable to heaven.
"It was really good. The bus was air-conditioned. When I got off the bus and went into the Grape B&B, I found that both the indoor and outdoor areas were air-conditioned."
Lu Ya sighed enviously, "It would be great if our place could develop like this."
"Didn't Wenwen tell you?" Zhou Zhengping was sweating while eating. He took a sip of ice cola. It was the first time for him, who didn't like carbonated drinks, to feel such a refreshing feeling.
"What?" Lu Ya's eyes were full of confusion.
"The B&B has taken over our base, and we will have to work for the owner from now on." Zhou Zhengping looked at his wife's face carefully, afraid that she would scold him.
She was only away for a few days, and it was normal for her to feel a little emotional when she came back because her house was robbed.
He was wrong. Lu Ya was indeed excited, but it was not the kind of excitement that comes from having her home robbed.
"We've been taken over?! We'll have someone to back us up from now on! Ahhh! The subway connects to our B&B! I can't even imagine how happy my future will be."
Lu Ya forcefully stuffed a can of Coke into Zhou Zhengping's hand and forced him to toast with her.
"We must celebrate and look forward to our base getting better and better under the leadership of the owner!"
Zhou Zhengping smiled deeply. It was true that birds of a feather flock together. Even their ideas were surprisingly similar.
"Your husband will be the head of the base in the future. If the business develops well, you can find whatever you want to buy here." This is what the owner had told him before.
He didn't have much contact with the store owner, but judging from her decisive work style, everything the store owner said would come true, it was just a matter of time.
Lu Ya shook her head and said, "If things develop well, I want to work in the future."
Zhou Zhengping did not question or ask any more questions. He just said "OK" and agreed.
His wife has never been someone who relies solely on him. He doesn't care whether she wants to work or not. If she wants to, he supports her and just does what a husband should do.
"What do you mean good?"
"It's all up to you."
"Why are you so nice to me?"
"Loving your wife brings good luck, loving your wife brings wealth."
The two of them were in love and spent the most unforgettable day in the apocalypse.
…
The makeshift tent where the injured were placed was filled with the mixed smell of disinfectant and despair.
The injured were placed in the tent, their thin bodies trembling slightly under the thin quilts, and they were trying their best to endure the pain.
The doctors from the hospital were transferred here to do some basic disinfection and wound cleaning for them. The conditions were limited and most of the equipment in the hospital was destroyed by the invasion of mutant beasts.
The most important thing is that the power generation system is broken. Most of the medical equipment in the hospital requires electricity to operate. When there is a sudden power outage, only the most valuable equipment has backup power devices.
The mutant beasts damaged the power generation system, causing the deaths of a group of people.
The doctors were helpless, feeling deeply powerless in the face of this situation. Watching lives gradually improve under their care, and then slowly fade away, no one felt more pain than they did.
They clearly had the ability to save the patients, but because of the power outage, those who recovered died.
There was total silence around the tent, with only the occasional soft sobbing from the families of the injured. They couldn't even cry loudly for fear of disturbing those who fell asleep because they were too unable to face the pain.
In the makeshift tent area, the only sounds were the sobs that were being desperately suppressed, and the roars of agony that could not be endured.
The sound was not loud, and they didn't even have the strength to scream out in pain, which showed how much torture they were suffering.
In this inescapable apocalypse, life and death are commonplace, and every living person must be prepared for death at all times.
The injured man lying in the tent, unable to bear the torture, asked for help from his relatives next to him, "Kill me, give me a quick death! It hurts so much... My whole body hurts..."
"Hold on a little longer. New houses have been built at the base, and a very powerful shop owner has come to rescue us. Can you hold on a little longer?"
"Why? Why can't you just give me a quick death?!"
In the same tent, there was an uncle whose bones were also broken by the mutant spider and he was enduring the severe pain. He was in pain too and wanted to give up very much, but he couldn't.
The uncle consoled him, "The base sent healing people to treat us so that we can all survive. The base will not give up on us. If you want to give up on you now, what will happen to your family?"
The young man didn't answer, tears streaming down his face.
"The base hasn't given up on us, and we can't give up on ourselves either. Just wait a little longer, the base will take action soon."
The uncle himself didn't know what the base would do, but when the healing ability users saved his life, he saw them output their abilities with one hand and grab the crystal core with the other hand to absorb it.
Bags of crystal cores were placed next to their hands, which showed that they were given to them by the base for their use.
A very important message conveyed here is that the base is still working hard and still wants to give them a chance to survive!
Xie Purou and Yue Xiwen passed by and stood outside the tent to listen to the conversation inside.
She suddenly thought that she was just a businessman. Even if she moved them to the B&B, she still needed crystal cores to cure their illnesses.
The weather is hot, and patients with injuries cannot be delayed. If they are infected with healing abilities, we will have to start working on them again.
Before returning to Le'an, she confirmed with the system again and again that the current medical facilities of the B&B hospital were sufficient for treatment, and as long as the injured were transferred there, the hospital would be confident that they could be cured.
But the problem is how to get the money to treat them...
She thought back to her past experiences.
The conclusion I have drawn from traveling through countless small worlds is that the aftermath of a crisis is usually cleaned up by the country.
For example, in ancient times, when there was a famine, the imperial court would distribute relief grain. Or, in the "rob the rich to help the poor" way, nobles would open their own coffers to distribute porridge.
This is obviously unrealistic. Robbing everyone else would be the most time-consuming, and they obviously can't wait.
