Chapter 46 Chapter 46 Refresh! Helicopter!
Qin Ming led a team of fully armed soldiers and angrily prepared to go to the logistics department to ask for supplies. Halfway through the journey, he was stopped by several people.
"Qin Ming, what are you going to do?"
Qin Ming looked at the people blocking the road and saluted. "Commander, I'm going to get our supplies back."
The man standing at the end heard this, walked up, raised his hand, and slapped Qin Ming on the head. "Damn it, how dare you call me that in front of your father!"
Qin Ming rubbed his head and gave an awkward smile. "Hey, old man, calm down. I was so angry that I lost my composure."
"You still know that you have lost your composure. What are you going to do? Are you going to rebel with these heavy weapons?" Qin Tianjiang pointed at the soldiers behind him who were carrying rocket launchers on their shoulders and holding heavy machine guns.
"The damn logistics department is so inhumane that they withheld our supplies again! What kind of horrible weather is this? So many people in our army are waiting for this batch of supplies to save their lives! Who can tolerate this! If they don't give it to me today, I will tear down their logistics department." Qin Ming said angrily.
"I think it's so cold, your brain must have frozen too." Qin Tianjiang called out to the people following him, asking them to take the soldiers away. "We need the supplies! This is not a stupid idea like yours."
Qin Ming was confused and looked at his old man.
"If you go in so openly and they refuse to comply, can you really kill them? Not only will it hurt us if we can't get it back, but we're probably not going to get any of this stuff at all."
"But what if I get it back? I don't believe they really aren't afraid of death!"
"Even if you take it back, you'll have something to hold against you. They're incredibly skilled at manipulating public opinion, especially now when everyone's starving. If you go there with such fanfare, the people will only see you as using your weapons to threaten the logistics department for something, and they won't care about the twists and turns involved."
Qin Ming took a while to digest the old man's words, "This...this...Old man, are we going to endure this again?"
"I said, we have to get the supplies."
"What do you think?"
"Wait a little longer." Qin Tianjiang patted Qin Ming's shoulder, looked at the people who were busy shoveling snow to clear the road not far away, and walked away.
Wait? Wait for what?
"Hey! Old man, what are you waiting for? How long do you have to wait? My soldiers can't wait any longer!" Qin Ming looked at his father who was gradually going away, shouting and quickly catching up with him.
…
Su Qing once again rushed to the base early that day to help clear the snow. Everyone was busy for the whole morning. In addition to the necessary roads, they also cleared a road outside the base leading to the mountain.
If anyone feels that the supply at the base is insufficient and they are short of wood, they can go to the mountains to cut wood by themselves. However, in such a low temperature environment, few people leave their homes except for food and supplies.
The base is already much better than other places outside, and they also try to save fuel as much as possible. Everyone in a courtyard gathers together to keep warm during the day, which can save a lot in a day.
Su Qing was almost done with his work here. Walking in the base, it was dimly lit and there were almost no people on the road. The cold air poured into his lungs through his trachea and then spread throughout his body. Even though Su Qing put on all his warm clothes and was fully armed with layers of clothing, he still felt cold to the bone.
The temperature is still dropping. Now the temperature outside is more than 50 degrees below zero. If it drops further, her base, no matter how unique it is, will not be able to withstand it.
Su Qing was a little worried. The heating plant was still short of some materials, but she could hardly move now. It would take her ten days or half a month to reach the destination just relying on the snowplow.
Su Qing walked quickly to Fang Qing's house and used her bracelet to contact Fang Qing to open the door. After a while, Li Xing, wrapped from head to toe with only a pair of eyes exposed, ran over shivering and opened the door for her. The two of them quickly entered the house.
There were several braziers burning in the room, and it became much warmer the moment you walked in. The temperature inside the room could only barely reach ten degrees Celsius, but it was still several dozen degrees lower than outside.
Fang Qing and Wang Tianqi were boiling milk in a brazier, and the children, wrapped in quilts, were huddled on the mattress watching.
Since the temperature started to drop, they have been moving around in one room. Fang Qing emptied most of the bedroom, spread two thick quilts on the floor, put the mattress on top, covered it with an electric blanket, and then put a thick velvet blanket on top to make a large bunk bed.
This not only saves heating materials, but also makes everyone warmer when they huddle together.
"Sister Su, you're here!"
"Sister Su, please come in and warm yourself up. It's very warm inside the quilt."
The children greeted Su Qing one after another. Su Qing responded with a smile, then looked at Fang Qing and the others.
"The garment factory has produced another batch of thick clothes and blankets. The quantity is small. Please count them and distribute them first to the elderly, children and those with weak immune systems who are in need."
"The road leading to the mountain has been opened. Li Xing, you and Brother Dong should organize someone to go up there and chop wood. The base will pay them. We don't know when the weather will return to normal, so let's stockpile as much wood as possible."
"Okay, we got it. You've been clearing snow non-stop these past few days, and we can't help much. Just leave the chores at the base to us." Fang Qing pulled Su Qing to sit down and poured her another cup of hot milk.
"Don't worry, Sister Su Qing. Now everyone knows that the situation is serious. In order to survive, I think no one would be unwilling to contribute. I have already sent a message to Brother Dong. Gather the base team early tomorrow morning and take turns to chop wood in batches." Li Xing shook his bracelet. After listening to what Su Qing said, he immediately conveyed the message to Dong Wen.
Su Qing nodded. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that she had not taken care of things since the base was built. She was mostly busy looking for materials to build the base. She was still very grateful to have met these people who trusted her and entrusted them with important tasks.
Maybe she was lucky, and of course the system also helped her. She had been here for so long and hadn't met anyone with bad intentions.
In the end times, people are crazy just to survive, and there is no such thing as morality. She is really lucky. The security robots originally deployed by the base have become completely useless. They can only show people the way and explain the base's infrastructure.
After heating the milk, Su Qing helped distribute it to the children, watching them savor it carefully and drink it up without leaving a single drop. Children in the apocalypse matured precociously, having experienced hunger before and knowing the value of food. They cherished everything they had now and dared not waste it at all.
"Sister Su, do you think this big plane looks nice?" After drinking the milk, Zhuangzhuang put the cup away and took out a straw-woven object that looked like a helicopter from under the quilt and handed it to Su Qing.
Su Qing looked at the exquisite straw model in Zhuangzhuang's hand. It was indeed very realistic and beautiful. "It's really beautiful. Where did you get it?"
"Grandpa Guan made it. Sister Guan came to give us something today and gave us each a small toy. Mine is a big airplane."
"Yes, yes, we all have them. Mine is a small bamboo ball."
"Mine is a birdie."
Su Qing reached out to take the plane and looked at it carefully. Grandpa Guan was really skillful. Not only was he good at weaving bamboo, he was also very good at weaving straw.
As he was watching, Su Qing suddenly heard the system beep. He opened the interface and saw the refresh mall icon flashing. He opened it and saw the interface inside, and his eyes widened.
She...what did she see!
The refresh icon of the helicopter is actually displayed at the top of the refresh interface!
It's a helicopter!
At this moment, a bunch of words flashed through Su Qing's mind, such as being possessed by the Emperor of Europe, extremely lucky, and being lucky... She hadn't stepped on Fuguier's poop recently, so what kind of luck did she have?
"Sister Su! Sister Su!" Zhuangzhuang looked at Su Qing holding his big plane. At first he looked at her normally, but then Sister Su's expression became more and more strange. Now she had a weird smile on her face which made him feel a little scared.
Su Qing quickly came to her senses when she realized someone was calling her. She smiled awkwardly and looked at him with bright eyes, "Zhuangzhuang..."
She had just started when Zhuangzhuang quickly took the big plane from Su Qing's hand and held it tightly in his hand, "Sister Su, what are you doing?"
He felt that Sister Su seemed to have intentions towards his big plane.
Uh... Su Qing felt so ashamed of herself. How could she want to take possession of a child's things? She could just go find Grandpa Guan and make another one to see if it could still be refreshed.
"It's okay, don't be nervous. Come, sister will treat you to some candy." In order to cover up her almost irresistible behavior of grabbing the phone, Su Qing took out a handful of candy from her backpack through her clothes pocket and distributed it to the children.
"Well...I remembered something, I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, Su Qing stood up and left quickly.
Looking at Su Qing's quickly leaving figure, Fang Qing and others were confused. What just happened?
As soon as she walked outside, Su Qing felt like she was about to freeze stiff. She walked quickly in the severe cold and then ran, and soon arrived at Grandpa Guan's house.
He used the bracelet to contact Guan Xiao and asked her to open the door, and the two quickly walked into the house.
The weather was cold and they couldn't go to the store, so they took orders and delivered the products to the door as they did in the past. The grandfather and grandson had been making bamboo products around the brazier at home and were a little surprised by Su Qing's sudden visit.
"Grandpa Guan, I saw that you made a helicopter toy out of straw. I like it very much. Can you make another one for me? I will pay for it." Su Qing walked into the room and got straight to the point when he saw Grandpa Guan.
"Ah... I think I made one. Are you in a hurry to get it?" Grandpa Guan put down the things in his hand and thought for a long time before he remembered that he had made a batch of small toys a few days ago. He asked Guan Xiao to deliver one to the family with children when delivering the goods.
"Uh...it's true...that thing is very important to me, but if it's too much trouble, please take your time. I can wait."
"Oh, it's no trouble, no trouble. Xiaoxiao, go get some palm leaves and bamboo sticks." Grandpa Guan waved his hand and asked Guan Xiao to get the materials.
Guan Xiao rummaged through a cabinet in the room and took out some materials. "Grandpa, this is all we have left. Do you think it's enough?"
"It should be about the same, Xiao Su. I'll make it for you now. This thing will take a while to weave. You sit down first. Xiao Xiao will pour Xiao Su a cup of hot water."
"Don't worry about me. It can be done today, right? That's great." Su Qing's eyes lit up as he listened.
"It will only take half an hour." Grandpa Guan said and started to work.
He was seen cutting bamboo strips into suitable thickness and length, then making the helicopter frame, and then weaving grass on the frame. Grandpa Guan folded the grass leaves quickly in his hands, and Su Qing was dazzled by the sight.
Su Qing was still in shock until a helicopter exactly the same as the one Zhuangzhuang took out appeared in front of her.
"Take it, Xiao Su."
"Oh? Oh oh..." Su Qing took it carefully, then opened the interface and looked at the refreshed mall.
You can refresh! Su Qing jumped up excitedly, which scared the grandfather and grandson in front of him.
This...Miss Su actually likes this thing so much?
"Thank you, thank you... Thank you so much, Grandpa Guan. Here's five hundred yuan, keep it."
"Hey, Xiao Su, what are you doing? Put it away quickly. This little thing is worthless, grandpa gave it to you."
"No, that won't do. This thing is very important to me. You have helped me a lot. This is all I have with me today. I feel like it's not enough for you. Please accept it."
"This is too much. Grandpa can't accept it. This money is enough to buy hundreds of them."
"If you think it's too much, then make a few more for me. I have something else to do so I won't bother you anymore. I'll be leaving now."
Su Qing put the money on the table and left quickly, leaving the two people in the room looking at the money in bewilderment.
Su Qing quickly returned to his home, suppressed his pounding heart, and refreshed the helicopter.
Straw Helicopter-Refreshable
Refresh successfully-get a multi-purpose helicopter
Congratulations on winning 50,000 gold coins.
Su Qing ignored the cold and went outside the house. She had cleared all the snow around the house in the past few days.
In the open space outside the house, Su Qing took out a helicopter from his backpack, and then a huge monster appeared in front of him.
The helicopter in front of her was all black, with a five-bladed single rotor, weapons on both sides, and a bunch of operating buttons on the main control position, which made her a little dizzy.
With this thing, she can go out and look for materials to build a heating plant. This thing came at the right time and just solved her urgent problem.
However, after Su Qing was happy, he discovered that there was another very important problem.
This thing isn't fully automated, and she can't fly a helicopter!
