Chapter 17 Farewell



The wind is picking up.

Xiao Mu felt the wind picking up, and He Rui on the ground also felt it. Remembering that Jiang Yao had told everyone to wear goggles that morning, they smiled knowingly.

Jiang Yao has prepared a lot of cooling foods for the hottest period, enough to feed 10 people for a year, since the cheat code is there.

The wind was noticeably stronger in the afternoon than in the morning. With the project nearing its final stages, Xiao Mu reported the situation to the authorities for safety reasons. After all, if the wind continued to pick up, it would pose a significant challenge to working at heights.

Upon receiving the message, the authorities immediately contacted their superiors.

Xiao Mu and the others returned home early. Jiang Yao was just about to have boiled fish for dinner when she saw them come back and said, "Why are you back so early today!"

Zhu Hezheng replied, "Jiang Yao, I'm so glad you had your goggles today. Otherwise, with this wind, you would have blinded me on the rooftop and carried me away." Everyone burst into laughter after he said that.

Jiang Yao served the boiled fish, dry-pot prawns, and cold-dressed wood ear mushrooms to the table. Upon seeing them, Shen Zhijie exclaimed, "When it comes to cooking skills, it has to be our Chef Jiang!"

Jiang Yao shook her head and said, "It's all thanks to your ingredients that I was able to perform so well."

"Alright, everyone, you've had a long day, go wash your hands and eat!"

Jiang Yao watched everyone eating quietly and wished this peaceful moment could last forever.

That night, the higher authorities replied: "Meteorological experts predict a possible storm, and we hope that the shelter can be completed as soon as possible while ensuring its own safety."

After seeing the news, Xiao Mu and the others notified everyone to start work overnight.

After all, the wind is not too strong now. If the wind increases, there will be a certain degree of danger for both construction and personnel safety.

After everyone worked through the night, the topping-out work of all the safe shelters was finally completed before dawn the next morning. To celebrate, the authorities provided everyone with a buffet breakfast.

Everyone cheered loudly, and a happy smile appeared on everyone's face.

Standing by the window, Jiang Yao looked at the weather outside, very worried about everyone's safety.

Suddenly, firecrackers went off outside. She knew that this must be because Xiao Mu and his team had completed their rush to finish the project, and she was happy for them.

The wind picked up again at night, and the official broadcast informed everyone that they could use their points to exchange for the right to live in a house, while those who participated in the construction of the house could be provided with six months of free living rights.

After two days of strong winds, the outside suddenly became calm. Jiang Yao knew this was only temporary, because the disaster would start again in a few days.

Taking advantage of the calm weather, Jiang Yao quickly took out her small electric scooter from her spatial storage and went to the points redemption area to exchange for a large amount of rice, flour, seasonings, etc. She didn't go home until she had spent all the points on her card.

Everyone shook their heads at her crazy spending, thinking, "Is she crazy?! What will she do after she spends all her points?"

Jiang Yao returned with a large amount of supplies. When Shen Zhiyao (Shen Zhijie) saw it, she jumped up and down, saying, "You went out to spend money shopping without telling me!"

Jiang Yao was quite helpless when she saw his (his) appearance, and tentatively asked, "How about we go again?"

Seeing that Jiang Yao was being so accommodating, Shen Zhiyao (Shen Zhijie) said without hesitation, "Wait here, I'll go ask them for the points card."

Jiang Yao looked at her (his) proud and adorable appearance, which was just like a little princess, and could imagine how Xiao Mu and others doted on Shen Zhiyao (Shen Zhijie).

In no time, Shen Zhiyao (Shen Zhijie) got everyone's points cards, and everyone got up one after another because the proud little princess needed someone to help her carry things.

Looking at everyone's sleepy faces, Jiang Yao found it somewhat amusing. This little princess was completely spoiled by you all!

This is the second time everyone has participated in an all-member activity, organized by the little princess Shen Zhiyao (Shen Zhijie).

When they arrived at the supplies exchange point and started shopping, people saw that it was people from the Poseidon Construction and Decoration Company buying supplies. Thinking that something was about to happen, they also started buying supplies.

An old woman asked, "Is some natural disaster about to happen again?"

Xiao Mu and the others quickly explained, "It's a crazy shopping spree to relieve stress and celebrate the completion of the project."

"Grandma, you can buy a little more if you like, because no one can say for sure when another natural disaster might strike."

Everyone thought it made sense, and more or less everyone bought some.

That night, He Rui, Dang Chengye, Zhu Hezheng, and others decided to return to the AC district to see how their families were doing.

After all, the reason they came to Shichang Village with Xiao Mu was because of this cooperation with the government. Now that the safe haven has been built, their mission is over and it's time for them to go home.

As Jiang Yao watched everyone prepare to part, she said with a touch of reluctance, "May your future be bright, and may we meet again as before."

Tonight I'm preparing a farewell meal, "Let's all drink and have fun tonight." Perhaps because of the farewell, little princess Shen Zhiyao (Shen Zhijie) cried her eyes out after getting drunk.

Everyone shuddered as they watched this grown man cry like a woman.

This scene is unbearable to watch.

Before dawn the next day, an official military jeep arrived, and He Rui and the others loaded their luggage and supplies and drove away.

Perhaps eager to return home, everyone didn't say much, just waved goodbye.

Watching their departing figures, I hope they have a safe journey.

After seeing He Rui and the others off, Jiang Yao took a walk around the area and found that all the houses were basically built around the mountain where her family lived. High-rise buildings were built at the foot of the mountain, and the escape routes between each building were connected. The original village was replanned, and a guard post and a 2-meter-high iron gate were built at the entrance of the village. This was the first safe shelter in Area A.
