It was two months later before the insect plague was over.
Because the major bases cleared the insect plague in a timely manner, it did not have a major impact on the production and development of the bases.
Based on the new additional goods, Jiang He speculated that the next natural disaster would be a sandstorm.
In this way, the cycle of natural disasters is almost inevitable.
There will be certain deviations in the duration of natural disasters, but the general direction can be determined.
Jiang He directly crossed out the pesticides on the purchase list and added windproof tape, masks and helmets.
On the day when the sandstorm hit, Shuguang Supermarket was open at the rose base.
A group of little girls sat in the waiting area, looking at the rolling dust coming closer and closer in the distance, feeling a little overwhelmed.
The little bear reassured them: "Don't be afraid, the supermarket is not affected by the sandstorm. You can continue shopping without worry."
Since the supply station was built at the Rose Base, more and more women have come here to seek refuge.
During non-natural disaster periods, five or six little girls would appear at the gate of the base every one or two days. They were basically between three and ten years old and had been abandoned here by their families.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some survivors placed their daughters or granddaughters in the rose base because they wanted them to live a better life.
The welfare here is good, and the base commander treats all residents equally, without any distinction between civilians and nobles.
As long as you are a resident of the base, you must accept tasks and earn points through your own labor in order to continue living in the dormitory.
In one year, the number of survivors at the Rose Base increased from more than 900 to more than 4,000, and it had already become a medium-sized base.
Although all the soldiers are female, they are no worse than those in other bases.
Half a year ago, Zhu Meigui returned to the Lotus Base. Although she had not completely reconciled with her father, the relationship between the father and daughter had eased a little.
Because the two bases are close to each other, shooting competitions, fighting competitions and other activities are sometimes organized.
The two sides conducted friendly exchanges and learned from each other's strengths, which played a certain role in enhancing the strength of the base forces.
The orphans at the Rose Base are the largest in number among all medium-sized bases, without a doubt.
Jingbei designated the Rose Base as an official base and provided some material subsidies to these children.
After the emergence of Shuguang Supermarket, items such as gold and silver jewelry were once again regarded as hard currency and circulated among major bases.
The same goes for animal bones and skins that can be exchanged for points, becoming tradable resources.
These children who go to the supermarket have more than five-digit points on their cards, most of which are subsidies from Jingbei, and a small part is earned by completing tasks.
The little bear immediately turned into the leader of the children, and all he did was hold up a small flag and walk in front.
"Come on, come on, follow me!
What I recommend to you is definitely cheap and practical supplies! ”
There is no child who doesn’t like a cute and lively creature like a little bear.
A three-year-old girl said in a baby voice: "Xiongxiong, I want to buy some food, something cheap."
Little Bear immediately pulled her to another shelf.
"Look, this row is all low-points food, but some are limited. If you like any of them, I'll get them for you."
Staring at the fragrant and soft bread on the shelf, the little girl's eyes sparkled and she couldn't wait to raise her hands.
"This one, this one, and this one, I want them all!"
Little Bear helped her put the items into the shopping cart according to the purchase limit.
A few older girls simply copied what Little Bear took.
After they had taken all the low-point food, Little Bear recommended to them canned meat with a long shelf life and a moderate price.
"These are all very popular essentials. They can be kept in the dormitory for several years without spoiling. The storage conditions are not very strict. You can just put them in any corner of the dormitory..."
Jiang He sat leisurely at the cashier counter, watching Little Bear taking care of the baby there.
This type of employee is great, enthusiastic and patient. Although he is not as tall as Xiaobao and the others, he is just the right height to greet customers and will not give them a strong sense of oppression.
More than a dozen children gathered around it, listening carefully to it introduce each product.
"Bear, I want to suck some jelly!"
"Xiongxiong, I want chocolate ice cream!"
…
The base did not send anyone to help them buy things, but just wanted to train their self-care ability.
Before entering the supermarket, adults told them how much their budget was for buying food and snacks. As long as they did not exceed the budget, they would get a reward when they returned home.
A group of children are very careful with their calculations. They all have a scale in their hearts and they must not exceed the expected number of points.
There were a few three-year-old children who were not very good at arithmetic and were almost crying from counting on their fingers.
The little bear was smart. He took a quick look and calculated the items in their shopping carts and how many points they had spent.
The children around put their hands together and looked at it with admiration.
"Xiongxiong, you are so awesome."
"Xiongxiong, you are so smart. I wish I could be as fast as you in arithmetic!"
The little bear touched the little girl's head and said, "Don't worry, you will become smarter when you grow up."
After visiting every area, Little Bear brought a group of little kids to the checkout counter to pay.
There were quite a lot of things, so Little Bear was kind enough to help them hold the woven bags so that they could put the things in.
Jiang He looked at the situation outside. The sand curtain covered the sky and the sun. The scenery in the distance had long been blurred. The strong wind blew up the garbage on the ground and made it fly in the air.
If you go out in this kind of weather, not only children but even adults will be blown away.
The sandstorm will not abate for a while.
Jiang He thought about it and directly developed a new business.
"Kids, do you need any delivery? I can get you and these supplies back to the dormitory safely."
Several little girls smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, sister, you are so kind!"
Jiang He raised the corners of his lips and smiled kindly: "You have to pay points, one person... 300 points."
A group of little rascals blinked quickly. The price was a little bit expensive, but it was worth it.
It's so windy and dusty outside that they definitely can't go back on their own.
The little girl with pigtails pointed to the ceiling and said, "Sister, can we go upstairs and play for a while before going back?"
Before they came, the aunt from the welfare home told them that they were allowed to go shopping in the supermarket and get familiar with each floor of the supermarket and what shops there were.
This is also to let them see more of the world and broaden their horizons.
Jiang He scanned the products and replied, "Sure, there are other employees upstairs. If you have any questions, you can ask them for help."
