Chapter 307 Base Situation
"Husband!" Yang Qing hugged Leng Yi's waist, feeling a little sorry for him.
Leng Yi lowered his head and rested his chin on Yang Qing's shoulder, saying softly, "I'm fine."
There are so many disappointments that there is no hope.
Even if Leng Jiashan recognizes me, life will still go on as usual and I don’t need to rely on him for anything.
"It doesn't matter who my father is. All I need is to be with you!"
"Yeah!" Yang Qing responded, hugging Leng Yi tightly. "Then let's not worry about that. Let's think about how to exchange our rare metals for deep-sea lifeboats."
Leng Yi let go of Yang Qing and pulled her to sit down. "There's no rush. We just arrived at the base and we already found such rare supplies. Isn't it too obvious? Take your time."
Yang Qing nodded. Indeed, it had been two years since the apocalypse and a year since the military base was established. The supplies in many places had been almost exhausted. How could it be so easy to find them?
We’ll have to find an excuse to get those rare metals out later.
"Let me check the house again." Leng Yi said suddenly.
I just moved in today, and I did some simple cleaning and tidying up my things. I didn't check carefully to see if there was anything wrong with this small courtyard.
For example, whether there are any listening devices or hidden surveillance cameras.
After all, they were probably not the first people to live in the yard. It was possible that someone had installed it before, or even the military had installed it.
Leng Yi began to check, and Yang Qing went back to her room to decorate it.
The room was furnished with the most basic facilities, the bed was half-new and the mattress was not clean.
Yang Qing put these into the space, took out the bed and mattress he had slept on before, and put clean sheets and quilt covers on them.
There are two bedside tables at the head of the bed, with a table lamp on each side.
Hang curtains on the windows, put a small dressing table and a chair underneath, and a single sofa next to it.
Put a carpet and slippers next to the bed.
With some simple decoration, the room looks much better than before.
There were only two of them living in the yard, so there was no need to put anything in the other rooms, so they were used as storage rooms.
A carpet was also placed outside the door for Aqi and Xiaoxue to sleep on. They were close to each other and could help keep watch.
Leng Yi carefully checked the entire house twice, and only felt relieved after confirming that there was no monitoring or surveillance equipment.
The two took turns taking a shower and going into the room to rest.
"Let's go see Shengnan and the others tomorrow?" Yang Qing said to Leng Yi.
"Sure!" Leng Yi nodded.
"Before, in order to rescue Mr. Lin, we asked for a thousand kilograms of food per person as a reward, and we put it in the space. However, Xia City experienced a volcano and a tsunami, so it is not easy to take it out now. Should we still give it to them?" Yang Qing asked.
Leng Yi pondered for a moment. "In that situation, even if there are supplies, they will be almost impossible to find. We'll see how the situation develops. If we really need them, we can just say we hid the food and don't know if there's any damage. Let's go and see if we can recover it."
Yang Qing nodded. Normally, the food would have been lost if left in Xia City. He was able to preserve it because he had the space, but it was difficult to explain to them.
Moreover, they are all soldiers now, with free food and accommodation, so they basically don’t need the food.
"Take some food with you when you go to see Li Shengnan and the others tomorrow. They will need food when they enter the base." Yang Qing said.
"Okay!" Leng Yi nodded. "I've been tired all day. Go to bed early."
"Um!"
The next day, when Yang Qing woke up, Leng Yi was no longer by her side.
She got up and searched for a long time before she found Leng Yi on the top floor looking around with a telescope.
"What are you looking at?" Yang Qing asked.
"Take a look at the surrounding environment." Leng Yi handed the telescope to Yang Qing.
"I got up as soon as the wake-up call sounded in the morning and took Aqi and Xiaoxue for a run around the neighborhood." Leng Yi said.
Yang Qing looked into the distance through the telescope and found that the residential areas were clearly divided.
The area where I live has both buildings and separate courtyards, and all the residents are ordinary people, that is, most of them are freelancers.
The other area is occupied by soldiers, and is also divided into buildings and courtyards. The buildings are probably where the soldiers live, and the courtyards are where the officers live.
The yard of Lengjiashan is located in the military residential area.
I didn’t notice it when I went there yesterday, but now I realize that it’s in a different district.
The troops in the military area are divided into navy and army based on their uniforms. Each army is training in separate areas, with teams stretching far away. There are at least tens of thousands of people, which looks very spectacular.
There are also many people exercising in the ordinary residential area, some of whom are similar to soldiers. It seems that everyone has become more self-disciplined after entering the military base.
"I didn't expect there would be so many people." Yang Qing sighed.
Leng Yi nodded, "A conservative estimate is that there should be more than 100,000 people."
"I don't seem to see any military facilities, ships, cannons or anything like that." Yang Qing asked.
"It should be very far away, somewhere that our telescopes cannot see. Those are usually placed on the coastline and are important military locations. Ordinary people cannot see or enter them, otherwise they will be easily destroyed." Leng Yi replied.
Yang Qing nodded. Yes, Leng Yi used to be in the navy, so he must be very experienced in this area.
"It's still very safe inside the base." Leng Yi said, "But, look over there..."
Leng Yi pointed to the residential area ahead and said, "There are a lot of vehicles there carrying freelancers searching for supplies. You can tell from their appearance what they've been through. I'm afraid they often rob each other. Be careful."
Yang Qing nodded. Anyone who could enter the military base would have good skills and was indeed more difficult to deal with than the freelancers in the official base.
The two walked downstairs, "I forgot to ask Lu Lin yesterday whether they were navy or army."
When they came, they were off work and were all in casual clothes, so it was not noticeable.
"Let's get together again when Li Shengnan and the others come. It's not too late to ask then." Leng Yi said.
The two men had breakfast and put 150 kilograms of food on the pickup truck.
One hundred kilograms were prepared for Li Shengnan and Gao Yang to enter the military base. In case Li Shengnan's injury had not healed yet and she had to recuperate outside, the fifty kilograms would be their food rations.
I dare not bring more.
I found the address Lu Lin gave me, which was a residential area. It must have been flooded before and looked very dilapidated, but it was still much better than the slums in Xia City.
Yang Qing went forward and knocked on the door. Li Shengnan's alert voice came from inside, "Who is it?"
Yang Qing pursed her lips and smiled, "Shengnan, it's me, Yang Qing."
There was a scream from inside, the door was immediately opened, and Li Shengnan appeared in front of them.
"Yang Qing!" Li Shengnan reached out and hugged Yang Qing excitedly. Gao Yang also saw Leng Yi behind Yang Qing and nodded at him, "You are here too?"
"Leng Yi, I'm so glad you're okay!" Li Shengnan was very surprised. "At that time, at the rescue camp, Yang Qing went to look for you and didn't come back for a long time. We were all very worried about you."
Leng Yi smiled and said, "I was seriously injured. Fortunately, she found me, otherwise I might have..."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Yang Qing turned around and glared at him.
"Come inside and talk." Gao Yang said hurriedly.
