Chapter 843 Enrichment
Zhang Heping was stunned for a moment, then jumped up and said, "Old Ji, why didn't you say so earlier?"
Ji Kangyong was somewhat helpless: "I just thought of this as well. After all, who doesn't like a nice house!"
The two looked at Shen Yanming: "How are you going to survive the winter without heating or kang?"
Shen Yanming pointed to the wood in the corner and said, "Burn it."
Zhang Heping nodded: "Okay, okay, as long as you like it."
"What are your plans?"
The two looked at each other, both a little confused. After a long time, they said, "Let's just do it and see how the guards are divided. Those assigned to area A will be assigned to area A, and those assigned to area B will be assigned to area B. But you are right, no matter where we are, we have to prepare firewood."
Shen Yanming nodded: “Just think it over.”
In the following week, Zhang Heping and Ji Kangyong were busy as dogs. Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan spent one day at home making medicine pills, and the next day they went to the agricultural area to help. Every day was extremely busy, but also extremely fulfilling.
Their action of collecting firewood was not hidden from anyone, and after many people figured it out, they joined the team to store supplies.
Ye Wengui was afraid that the mountain would be barren, so he asked someone to lead a team out to look for firewood.
Of course, in order to protect the precarious environment, they only picked up branches that were broken by the sea water or cut down wooden stakes that were killed by the sea water. The living trees and grass were not touched at all.
Some of the guards were slow to return, and in September, Zhang Heping and Ji Kangyong successfully moved into a single dormitory in a building in Area A.
The two became neighbors as they wished, and Li Wanwan also lived with Zhang Heping. Of course, they had registered formally with the security team.
Yu Huiyu and her family also successfully moved into Area A, but the accommodation conditions were not as good as Bi Qiao's family.
Now that she was closer, she liked to come to see Chen Yanming even more. But Chen Yanming seemed to be invisible, and he always dismissed her with a few words.
Bi Qiaoan found this girl silly and cute, and felt angry but also a little amused.
One day, I couldn't help it anymore and asked directly, "Girl, do you think it's really good to live in Area A?"
Yu Huiyu puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Of course, the buildings here are so beautiful, unlike those outside, which are drafty."
Bi Qiaoan suppressed his laughter and said, "But, a bungalow can have a kang."
Yu Huiyu blinked, not realizing what it meant.
Bi Qiaoan said, "Don't you feel that the temperature has dropped again recently? This year is definitely colder than usual. Are you sure that without heating, Area A is still the best choice?"
Yu Huiyu's eyes narrowed, and then she thought of the past when the couple had deceived her. She snorted and said, "If the bungalow is so good, why don't you go?"
Bi Qiaoan chuckled: "That's because this house is mine. I'm used to living here and have feelings for it. I can't bear to abandon it."
Yu Huiyu was a little skeptical, but she also felt that it made sense. After thinking for a while, she frowned and said, "Hmph, I'll go back and ask my dad."
She looked up at Shen Yanming and saw that he didn't pay any attention to her. She pouted and left unwillingly.
Bi Qiaoan walked up to Shen Yanming and whispered, “Your peach blossom is quite interesting.”
Chen Yanming pinched Bi Qiaoan's nose with his muddy hands: "You just want to watch the show! If I hadn't seen her just talking nonsense every day, I would definitely take action against her. And her father, don't you know how to control him?"
Bi Qiaoan dodged to the side and said, "Maybe he realized that you didn't have any bad intentions and his daughter was stubborn, so he didn't forcefully intervene. But I don't think that girl likes you that much either."
Shen Yanming nodded: "It's just about appearance, and then immerse yourself in fantasy."
After the couple finished their work in the fields, they clocked in and went home. Now that there were no outsiders at home, it was more convenient for them to get something to eat.
However, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan still ate in the cafeteria most of the time. Although the taste was average, they had to follow the crowd.
The couple always finishes their porridge and then goes home to eat some vegetables or fruits, which ensures a balanced diet.
It was September, and the temperature was slowly dropping. The family of four had already put on long sleeves.
Zhang Heping, Ji Kangyong, Li Wanwan, Xu Yajing, and Li Zhaozhao were all still wearing short-sleeved shirts and shorts, and were shivering from the cold every day.
On the weekend, a group of people came to see Shen Yanming and said they wanted to go outside to see if there were any thick clothes.
The couple thought about it and agreed, but before leaving, they each got a set of clothes.
"Don't mind my and Joan's clothes." In fact, they were all new, but they were just called old clothes.
Several people hugged the clothes in their arms, feeling extremely happy. They had been shivering for several days and never thought that they would be able to get warm so soon.
After changing their clothes, the group walked out of the guard team. This was the first time they came out since they came back.
It was as desolate outside as ever, and even more desolate in the cool autumn wind.
Outside the base, there were many survivors and guards sweeping through the ruins. Every time they found a piece of clothing, they would cheer.
Because the city is so big and there are so few people, it’s not difficult to find something.
It didn't take long for the group to find a pile of clothes and two quilts. These were the things they hadn't taken with them when they took refuge. No one had expected that the disaster would be so great.
Seeing that it was getting late, the group walked home.
After that, every weekend, the couple would go out with everyone to collect trash, but every time they found something, they gave it to others.
Li Zhaozhao wanted to ask them about the supplies they had previously stored, but he opened and closed his mouth but couldn't ask.
Shen Yanming could probably guess what he was thinking, but it was not the right time yet.
Everyone is living a hard life and scavenging outside. If they suddenly have a large amount of supplies, wouldn't it be very suspicious?
So just bear with it for now.
Ji Kangyong and Zhang Heping didn't think much about it. They had almost stockpiled supplies for the winter, so they were not in a hurry.
Li Wanwan is an optimist, she thinks there will always be a way out, and she doesn't have high requirements for the quality of life. Xu Yajing's health is almost good, she doesn't know the family background of these people, and she doesn't have any inappropriate fantasies.
But Shen Yanming was planning for the future. While scavenging, he really carefully explored the surrounding environment. Sometimes, he even went out alone to find a warehouse suitable for storing supplies.
You know what, he actually found a basement.
It was a space of about 20 square meters, and because the entrance and exit were paved with tiles, it was impossible to see from the outside.
The entrance could only be found by prying up the floor tiles. Because it was tightly sealed, the basement was not damaged when the tsunami hit.
Shen Yanming also discovered it by accident. He did not make it public after he found it, nor did he store any supplies inside. He just kept it as it was, and when the time was right, he would release the supplies.
