Chapter 673: The noise is loud
They just followed Yang Qiang and listened to his introduction and explanation.
Looking along the way, I saw that only the carving section was occupied by people.
These people disassembled the large jade into independent small jade spaces along the enclosed space formed inside the large jade, and then simply processed the small jade spaces to turn them into jewelry suitable for wear.
Looking at the workers' exquisite carving skills, Leng Ning's eyes were full of amazement.
"This is just the simplest carving process. If it were before the end of the world, it would take at least three days from design to polishing and carving of an exquisite jade article." Now it is the end of the world, and people's pursuit of these jade articles is no longer for their ornamental value.
Therefore, they only need to simply process the cut jade, and the process is not complicated.
"These are already very beautiful." Leng Ning said. This was also what she really thought.
Perhaps because she was an outsider, she truly felt that the hands of these craftsmen had the power to turn decay into something magical.
"Haha. Hall Master Leng said it's good, so it's good then." Yang Qiang said with a smile.
They and the jade base's carving masters are all experienced masters with superb skills and fast speed, which is really good.
"We also produce a small number of finely crafted space jade wares. If Master Leng is interested, I'll have someone send a batch to you later for you to see." Although jade's main attribute nowadays is a means of transportation, it also naturally has decorative and ornamental attributes.
A fine piece of jade is an excellent choice for a gift, especially for someone you cherish.
Therefore, there is a market for exquisite space jade, but the market is far smaller than that for ordinary space jade.
"Great! This is a good opportunity to pick one for our mother!" Leng Ning said and looked at Lei Ting.
Lei Ting smiled indulgently, "Okay."
Yang Qiang was slightly surprised when he heard Lei Ting talking.
I thought that Master Lei was always cold to everyone, but he was like a completely different person when it came to his wife.
Next, Yang Qiang took the two of them to visit the living area of the Heyu base.
Only then did Leng Ning realize that the Heyu base was indeed very small, and the people here were not only workers but also had to stand guard.
At this time, she felt relieved, thinking that sooner or later Yang Qiang would agree to send someone to help them guard the base. Otherwise, with so few people, all of them would go to work in the mine, and it would be difficult to defend well.
Also, these equipment and workers from the Heyu Base will eventually go to their Thunder Base...
In the evening, Yang Qiang warmly entertained Leng Ning and Lei Ting at his home.
Basically all the ingredients and drinks he used were those given to him by Leng Ning.
While eating meat and drinking wine, Yang Qiang and Yang Gang both felt the wonderful taste of life as it should be.
After the meal, Yang Qiang chatted with Leng Ning and Lei Ting for a while. When the two directors of the Quartermaster Department and the Finance Department came to see him, he stood up and said goodbye to them, and asked Yang Gang to stay with them.
Yang Gang didn't dare to look at Lei Ting at all, and felt a little embarrassed towards Leng Ning, so he didn't dare to take the initiative to talk to Leng Ning.
Although he had asked for forgiveness from Hall Master Leng in front of his uncle before, he was indeed rude to him before and still felt a little guilty about it.
"I heard from Mr. Yang that you were a sophomore in high school before the apocalypse?" Leng Ning spoke first.
"Yeah." Yang Gang replied.
"I'm in my third year of high school!" Leng Ning said with a smile.
Yang Gang was stunned, "How old are you?" he asked subconsciously.
But when I asked, I felt something was wrong.
"I'm already over eighteen." Leng Ning said with a smile.
"I was eighteen before the end of the world." Yang Gang muttered, thinking that he was probably older than her.
"A high school and a university are going to be built behind the Thunder Base. If you are interested, you can learn more about it during your visit."
Yang Gang was stunned.
"Build a school?" There was some surprise in his tone.
It’s the end of the world, can we still go to school?
"Yes. Kindergartens, elementary schools and junior high schools will be built first. Then high schools and universities will be built according to the situation." Leng Ning looked at Yang Gang and said, "Talent is the driving force for the development of the safe zone. The sooner the school is arranged, the better."
There was a flash of excitement in Yang Gang's eyes.
"What - conditions?" He didn't really want to go back to school, but was thinking whether he and other children of the right age in the Heyu Base could take this opportunity to live in the Thunder Base.
Can they and the Jade Base slowly move closer to the Thunder Base, and eventually everyone can migrate away from here?
"It depends on the Ministry of Education." Leng Ning didn't give an answer. But she thought to herself that according to Yang Gang's physical condition, he should be able to pass the exam.
"Oh." Yang Gang responded disappointedly.
"Does your Thunder Base really have a population of more than 50,000?" With Leng Ning taking the initiative to talk to him just now, Yang Gang was not so afraid now, and asked Leng Ning.
"Currently, there are over 60,000 people. The major bases in City A have been incorporated into the safe zone, and the total number of people registered at the household registration office has exceeded 60,000." Leng Ning smiled and said, "The promotional video has not been modified yet."
Yang Gang's eyes widened. Sixty thousand people, wow, no wonder they can create a safe zone!
"I heard that you have a base for hosting foreigners?" Yang Gang became more and more excited the more he thought about it, and asked Leng Ning, trying hard to control his emotions.
Leng Ning smiled and didn't answer.
"I saw what you said in the video." Yang Gang looked a little anxious.
"I did collect it before." Leng Ning said.
“So you’re not accepting it now?” Yang Gang felt as if his heart was being lifted up.
"No. But we accept immigrants."
"What is immigration?" Yang Gang frowned.
"Selling household registration." Leng Ning said with a smile, answering Yang Gang's words with the simplest three words.
These three words don't sound very pleasant literally, but Leng Ning looked calm when he spoke them, without any discomfort at all.
"How do you sell it?" Yang Gang asked cautiously.
Leng Ning glanced at Yang Gang and said with a smile, "It hasn't been decided yet, but the price will definitely not be cheap."
Yang Gang quickly avoided the inquiring look.
"Haha, Thunder Base is so good. Even if it is a bit expensive, I guess there will be many people willing to immigrate here." Yang Gang complimented.
"Thank you for your good wishes." Leng Ning looked at Yang Gang again with a hint of meaning, and then turned his gaze away from Yang Gang.
If she was still guessing before, now it is certain.
This Heyu base will definitely become their safe zone in the future.
"Master Leng, I just heard you say that you now have seventy helicopters?" Thinking of something, Yang Gang asked Leng Ning again.
There are seventy helicopters, and excluding the pilot, each helicopter can seat three to four people.
If we squeeze together and count four people, if all helicopters are deployed, they can pick up 280 people at a time.
Plus the three helicopters they have, the number can be increased! With only three or four flights, they and everyone at the Jade Base can be relocated.
"I guess so. The helicopter order has been placed with Aofei Base, and we will get all the helicopters within a week at the latest." Leng Ning continued: "Depending on the situation, we may have to place an additional batch of helicopter orders."
