Chapter 190: Quick Decision
At this moment, the Morning Light Base did not feel any sense of crisis at all.
As the sky gradually darkened, the original residents went to work, while those who did not go to work took the new residents for a stroll in the base.
At the door of the convenience store.
The old man said: "This is our temporary store. Don't be fooled by its small size, but you can buy basically anything here. If you need anything in the future, you can come here and redeem your points. Points, as you know, are stored in your card."
The newlyweds were shocked: "Really? Can we really buy anything? Can we buy instant noodles?"
The old man was proud: "Of course, but we don't like buying instant noodles. They are not nutritious and are expensive. A pack of instant noodles can buy half a pound of pork."
This price was set by Xu Sichen. Basically, all secondary processed items will be more expensive than the raw materials, after all, her space has the lowest cost for growing vegetables and breeding.
Even if gold coins can be exchanged in the mall, what she lacks most now is gold coins. She will not spend any money if she can avoid it, not even a single gold coin.
The newcomers were even more shocked: "Pig, pork, there is pork in our base?"
The old man continued proudly, "Pork is nothing. We have vegetables, fruits, chicken, duck, fish, meat, and eggs at our base. If you don't believe me, I'll take you there. When you came in, the base advanced 50 points to each of you. But you have to remember, this is an advance. You will need to pay it back when you earn points through work."
The newcomers nodded excitedly: "Wait, when I get better, I will work hard to earn points."
At the canteen entrance.
The old man said, "This is our temporary canteen. The new canteen is already under construction, in the area behind. You can come here for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. These are the meal times, so be sure to remember them. Don't come too early, or you'll interrupt the base staff's meal time."
The newlyweds could not help but swallow their saliva as they smelled the fragrance in the air, but they looked a little panicked and said, "The food inside must be very expensive. We definitely can't afford it."
The old man smiled and said, "It's not expensive. One steamed bun costs one point, and it's the big, solid kind. Add one point for porridge and some pickles, and you're full. Working as a temporary worker at a construction site and moving bricks for an hour earns one point, which is definitely enough for a good meal."
The newcomers continued to be surprised: "One point for each steamed bun, can we really go in and buy it?"
You have to know that at the Haichuan base, after working all day, they are only entitled to a bowl of porridge in the morning and evening. The porridge is black and no one knows what it is made of. It tastes bad and is hard to swallow, but in order to survive, they have no choice but to survive.
I thought the white porridge they had drunk recently was the best, but I didn't expect there were also steamed buns.
The old people understood their shock at the moment. After all, their situation was not better than theirs at the beginning. After all, after the end of the world, food was so precious. Who would give it to them to eat?
"Of course you can. There's more than just steamed buns. We also have a set meal at noon, one meat, one vegetable, and one soup, all for three points. Of course, if you think it's too expensive, you can also go to the store and buy the ingredients and cook it yourself."
The newcomers were so shocked that they were almost numb, and just stupidly followed the old ones around the base.
There is a hospital, and people at the base can use their points to buy medicine and see a doctor. If it is a work-related injury, the treatment is free.
There are reliable guards who patrol 24 hours a day. If you are bullied, you can report it to the guards. It is absolutely fair and just.
There are also jobs that can earn points. Those with skills can apply for technical positions, while those without skills can move bricks or sweep the floor...
All this gave them the illusion that the apocalypse was over and they were about to return to normal life, but outside the base, it was a completely different and terrifying world.
They originally thought that after the end of the world, the Haichuan base would be the normal living condition for ordinary people, being exploited and abused just to get a bite to eat.
But I didn't expect that there was a completely different world outside the Haichuan base.
Gradually, their eyes turned red and sobs were heard in the crowd, getting louder and louder until they held their heads and cried.
The people around them did not disturb them and let them vent their suffering.
An old man over fifty years old suddenly knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of Building No. 5.
Soon, more and more people knelt down and kowtowed with the old man.
They did not speak, but knelt silently.
But everyone knew that they were kneeling down to the master of this base, the base commander who gave them this stable life - Xu Sichen.
At this moment, they felt extremely fortunate that they had listened to the advice of Mr. Feng and others and escaped from hell at the risk of their lives.
At the same time, Wang Anjun and his guards hid on the roof of a building near the outskirts of the base, each armed with a sniper rifle.
Han Xiaogang touched the sniper in his hand, his face full of excitement and excitement: "I didn't expect that I would get to touch it one day. Captain, how about I apply to be transferred to the guard team?"
Wang Anjun was quite disgusted with Han Xiaogang, who had the nerve to come over just to touch the sniper rifle. "If you have the guts, go talk to the boss yourself."
Before the two men talked, their eyes never left the target person in the sniper scope.
As soon as it gets dark, all the searchlights installed at the Morning Light Base are turned on, illuminating the dark night sky.
This also provided a good cover for Zhang Tie and his companions who were hiding in the dark, and also made Zhang Tie and his companions more confident, thinking that these twenty or thirty people could directly overthrow an entire base.
Little did they know that while they were reporting the number of kills, sniper rifles were already aimed at them.
So after Zhang Tie started talking about the action, the sniper rifle aimed at them took action before them.
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”
“Bang, bang, bang!”
Just as Zhang Tie was about to pull the trigger of his gun, he heard a sound of a skull bursting, and then a sticky substance splashed onto half of his face, into his ears, and even into his eyes.
He turned his head in a daze and saw that Huang Ya, who had teased him and talked to him about it, had half of his head shattered, and the yellow and white liquid inside was flowing all over the floor.
Zhang Tie was a perverted murderer before the apocalypse, and he killed countless people after the apocalypse. He even ate pieces of flesh from living people at will. No matter what happened, he was not afraid of anything.
But when he saw the heads explode before his eyes and then fall down with their eyes open, he was shocked and angry at the same time, but also scared.
It goes without saying that when they approached the Morning Light Base, they were targeted.
But they clearly didn't see any patrols or guards around the Morning Light Base, so how come they were suddenly targeted?
