Bai Shuang and the others have plenty of points, so of course they don't need to suffer like this.
Grandpa Lu said to her, "You've worked hard looking for a place recently, so take a good rest."
The new foundation has been partially completed and can now accommodate regular helicopters. They will use the base aircraft to deliver supplies, and Bai Shuang's aircraft can now rest.
However, Ling Liyuan also had to go to the scene to observe the overall situation, and Lu Yu still had to command from the military base. Only Bai Shuang, the other two, and Xue Bao were truly resting.
She and Bai Jiu had nothing to do, so they stayed home and made and stored delicious food.
Uncle Li also went. Bai Shuang originally told him to rest, but he said he wanted to do his part for the base. However, as soon as he arrived at the construction site, someone started talking.
"Isn't this Dean Li? Does your Bai family still need points? Your niece is enjoying herself at home, while you're toiling away here."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone working nearby turned to look.
Uncle Li recognized the voice and looked up to see it was Kang Naisen.
“I just want my niece to rest, so what? A while ago, they worked hard to find a new place for everyone, why didn’t you go?”
Cornell... I'd like to go, but is it a place anyone can just go whenever they want?
Li Wenyuan: "Our family doesn't lack points, but does that mean we can't contribute to the base? What kind of thinking is that?"
Immediately, everyone looked at Kang Rensen, feeling that the Kang family had low awareness. Some people even whispered about how immoral they were when they ran the base hospital and how they later spread the plague.
Kang Wen, standing next to his father, blushed and glanced at him sideways, "Why did you provoke him?"
These past few days, everyone has been working hard, so Old Lu specially asked Bai Shuang to bring out some rice so that he could cook a meal occasionally.
(PS: Originally, the portion of the grain collected from Nanhou, Laoya, and Wanta at the border that belonged to the public was still there. One-third of it was released during the New Year, and two-thirds remained, which has been stored in Bai Shuang's space.)
After more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians worked in shifts to repair the road in sections, it was finally completed ten days later.
Even Bai Shuang was surprised when she heard the news. 150 kilometers, that's 15,000 meters of road, full of cracks, and it was repaired so quickly?
It can be used for both pedestrians and vehicles.
That's truly amazing. Indeed, the power of the masses should not be underestimated.
Several wells have been dug, which are enough for now.
Meanwhile, the foundation for the new residence has been mostly prepared through a combination of mechanized and manual work, and it's ready for moving.
The rest can be completed after we get there, so we need to move now.
Ordinary vehicles can be lifted up by a crane, but Bai Shuang's superpowers are best avoided to prevent exposure.
People with vehicles can drive their own cars, but there are very few private cars in the base. More than 90% of the survivors do not have cars and can only walk.
However, their personal supplies can be placed on military trucks and transported together, so everyone only needs to bring their own food and water bottles for the journey and can travel light.
All luggage was packed and numbered; you only need to keep the numbers safe.
The two senior uncles have airplanes and can drive there. As for the two young masters of the Zuo family, before Uncle Zuo left, he bought them an old car.
Bai Shuang asked Zuo Dashao, "How is the Dragon City base doing after this earthquake?"
"All the houses collapsed. Fortunately, we received advance warning that an earthquake was going to happen and went to a designated place to take shelter in advance."
But many people still fell into the cracks in the ground.
My aunt nearly fell, managing to grab onto a tree trunk and barely escape with her life, though she broke her leg.
Grandpa Lu sighed, "With this earthquake, I wonder how many more people will be lost at the other bases?"
Earthquakes seem to be a global phenomenon, treated indiscriminately.
Mr. Wu and Ah Qiao also took a ride on Uncle Li's plane.
Bai Shuang asked them during the day, "Are you going to take Uncle Mike's plane or drive my car?"
Daytime: "We've driven the car away, what will you like to use?"
"I have a plane, but I can't leave now. I have to leave with Grandpa."
Bai Di said to Bai Tian, "Let's drive Miss's car. Uncle Mai's family has a lot of supplies. If we go up there, we'll crowd them."
They nodded during the day and then turned and left.
"Wait, bring some snow bricks, water is scarce over there, and also some compressed biscuits for emergencies."
"Miss Xie!"
The new base area is already divided up, and someone will take care of you once you arrive.
It's 150 kilometers away. Driving takes only a short time, and you can get there in a day, but walking takes at least a week.
Even the Yuwen family walked. They had a car, but it wasn't big enough for all the family members.
Only the head of the household and a few elderly and high-ranking individuals traveled by carriage; the rest walked.
Of course, the base will provide water once a day during the journey, but you will have to provide your own food.
Before they left, Bai Shuang specifically instructed Bai Chang and Bai Jiu to give each of the Bai family employees 10 compressed biscuits, a few snow bricks wrapped in an insulated bag, and a bag of mint tea, which they could collect upon presentation of their work ID.
People around watched with envy as the employees stood in line to receive their items, their chests puffed out, radiating a sense of superiority.
Compressed biscuits are a proper food, and nowadays they are a very good food. One biscuit is enough for a meal, and if you save 10 biscuits, you can eat them for five days. They also keep well.
It's extremely hot now, and other foods might easily mold.
Snow bricks are even better; they can cool you down, and the melted snow water is drinkable, much better than filtered water.
The compressed biscuits were stored before the White Frost Disaster, and she never had a chance to eat them. She has a machine in her space that can make this kind of thing.
Moreover, homemade food with added eggs, cream, and vegetables is more nutritious and tastes better.
The farm also sells them, but they're made from seafood caught recently, so they have low grain content, are very fishy, and some people can't afford them.
