Chapter 210: Salvage Begins
Wang Qiqi took the recommendation of Jingshu and several others and began his arduous process of rising to the top. Although Jingshu felt that the possibility of Wang Qiqi rising to the top was very low because he had no resources, she could also help him at the critical moment.
After all, a trustworthy person is much better than anyone else to be the allocation director, and in future migrations and disaster refuges, the allocation procedure will basically have to be followed.
If Wang Qiqi really becomes the director, then their positions will be relatively much better in the future.
Thinking about it this way, investing in Wang Qiqi is also very good.
Except for the steel cutting machine that Wang Qiqi could use now, the other things she brought were useless, so she threw them all to Jing Ye.
Jingshu planned to cut the steel she traded from Sumali into weapons with both defensive capabilities when she had some free time these days.
What will be shot out at that time will not be stones, but giant steel arrows. Just thinking about that scene is very exciting.
In the old group, Wu Youai also announced the news:
"Everyone, the government will begin the salvage operation tomorrow. Everyone can sign up and participate. Transportation is free, but renting a life jacket costs one virtual currency. Right now, all sorts of usable items on the water in Wucheng can be exchanged for virtual currency. Hurry and sign up! The number of life jackets is limited. This is also a way for you to earn virtual currency. You definitely won't lose money."
"What? I have to pay. If you are a good swimmer, can't you just go in the water?"
Wu Youai: "Of course, but I don't care about life or death. By the way, anyone with a swimming ring at home can go too."
I have a baby: "I rented out a swimming ring for 0.5 virtual coins, who wants it?"
Wu Youai: "By the way, Big Data has updated the virtual currency and other rewards for salvaging all the supplies. When the time comes, you can exchange them according to the price list above and choose useful items to salvage. Don't salvage garbage and then ask others to exchange them for it, which would make people laugh."
…
That night, Jingshu put everything that was not needed temporarily in the basement, including burying all the boulders in the back mountain and placing the steel in the backyard of the villa, freeing up a small half of the space, hoping to get some results tomorrow.
At 4 a.m. on January 8, Jingshu was woken up by her mother and went to work with dark circles under her eyes. The two of them drove away in the Shark Submarine. Since the transaction with Chen Nan was changed to all the modified materials for the RV, the luxury car was naturally gone, and they didn't dare to drive their own energy car. Fortunately, they made an appointment with mentor Wu Youai to come and see it tomorrow.
It’s great that I only slept for a few hours today.
"My dear mother, my dear mother, my dear mother!" Jingshu repeated it three times in her heart, stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the Banana Community. The basement was now crowded with people, and she could not leave from the basement in the future.
Jingshu ate a hand-pulled pancake with lettuce leaves, grilled sausage, chicken fillets, fish fillets, beef sauce and duck eggs, and drank pure milk. This was the only way she could deal with breakfast.
The flood in the development zone has receded partially. In places where you couldn't see electric poles before, you can at least see them now. However, the flood in the urban area shows no signs of receding, which has discouraged most people from going home.
After the Wucheng government settled the people, it started the salvage work from today and encouraged the people to go to the city to salvage all the supplies.
From today on, everyone started to get busy, because disasters happen quickly and post-disaster reconstruction is difficult.
The Agricultural Management Department is still the same, but since the rainstorm water was used for irrigation, all the vegetables are now full of insect eggs. Some people are removing them manually, but it is basically useless.
After Jingshu arrived, she started the work of pest control without saying a word.
She kept picking out old insects from the rainwater, then putting them in salt water, and then putting them in the vegetable garden. It took her most of the day to get rid of all the insects on the vegetables. During this time, she felt dizzy and felt like she was hallucinating. The feeling was like the feeling after playing with the Rubik's Cube too much.
Jingshu felt that there was something wrong with her Rubik's Cube recently, but she couldn't tell. It should have started after it was automatically reset. But no matter what, after the Rubik's Cube was upgraded, all this would be fine.
The secret should be revealed soon. The more this happened, the more anxious Jingshu became to upgrade, but unfortunately the technology didn't allow it.
When Jing's mother saw the tiredness on Jingshu's face, she felt so distressed that she said she would not let Jingshu do this job again next time and would let someone else do the work.
Fortunately, it was her who came. If it were someone else, it might take ten days or half a month to finish, and by then the flowers would be cold.
"Okay, Mom, these vegetables are almost ripe, so don't water them anymore, otherwise they'll be covered with insect eggs again. There should be a solution above for the next batch of vegetables."
"This method is troublesome. If I have to do it every time after watering, it will waste a lot of time."
Of course, Jingshu didn't want this effect, but to let everyone think about how to grow things on a large scale with low cost. Her mother would then use traditional methods to filter water for irrigation and grow vegetables, so as to take her career to the next level.
In a couple of days, the time should be ripe.
"Hey, where are you going to go if you're in such a hurry and don't want to eat?"
"I'm going out for a walk."
"It's so dark, and there's flooding everywhere. Where are you going to go for a walk?"
…
Heavy rain was pouring down in Wucheng. Today, the government sent so many salvage ships to the city center to salvage various things. If Jingshu didn't go and make some money, how could she be worthy of her Rubik's Cube Space?
If it goes on for a few more days, all the valuables will probably be gone.
Before the flood, these places were strictly protected. Now that there is a flood, they are all ownerless, cough cough.
The tallest building in the center of Wucheng was still submerged in water, with not even its top visible, but a helicopter was now humming in the air, shining its headlights all around.
There are hundreds of salvage boats of all sizes on the water, and on them are newly recruited salvage workers by the government. Each of them is a good swimmer, has passed rigorous assessments, and is equipped with relatively professional equipment.
Some salvage vessels are equipped with advanced computer-controlled hooks, while others are less advanced and require the cooperation of salvors to catch the object before salvaging it. Then there are the most traditional ones that carry nothing and rely purely on manually tied ropes and people pulling them from above.
Labor is cheap in the end times because food will always be distributed to the people. In this case, the government ultimately chooses to distribute it to the people who can create value.
So many things here rely on salvagers to go into the water and fish out all kinds of things. Things that were worthless before the end of the world have become useful after the end of the world.
