"Are you out of your mind? If you're sick, you should rest."
Furthermore, you should train subordinates to help you share the burden; you can't do everything yourself.
The deputy director is appointed by Bai Shuang, but for lower-level positions, he has the right to create them if needed, as long as he reports to Bai Shuang.
Because there were fewer people in the past, many positions were vacant.
"Thank you for your concern, leader. I have a cold, but it's nothing serious. Seeing that the saplings have taken root gives me a lot of energy."
Bai Shuang gave him a cup of spiritual spring water with medicine added, and then gave him a pot of stewed chicken soup.
This can be seen as a sign of concern for subordinates.
The more subordinates like this, the better.
And so, they planted them one by one, and then protected them one by one.
After the first batch of saplings survived the transplanting, Minister Hong, with tears in his eyes, said to Bai Shuang, "Base Chief, we succeeded! We succeeded!"
As the land grew greener day by day, everyone at the base saw hope.
Zi Shuang instructed Minister Hong to distribute some of the first batch of harvested alfalfa sprouts as employee benefits.
This is a rare find among leafy greens.
Apart from the submarine housing at the original Kyoto base, which has a planting area where some things can be grown, people from other bases haven't seen vegetables for years.
The rest was distributed among the military mess hall and the various staff canteens.
When the first batch of corn ripened, Baishuang also asked them to pick some green ears, boil them, and give one ear to each of the people who participated in the labor.
As soon as they were handed out, everyone started eating them, even the core in the middle.
Those who have tasted the benefits know that they are growing things to eat themselves, which motivates them even more.
The Babylonians, seeing the ever-expanding oasis, could no longer sit idly by.
Their leader found Bai Shuang and also wanted to farm.
"If you want to plant it, you can. There are two methods."
The first option is to rent land and farm it yourself; the second option is to work alongside others.
There are meals and salary points to earn. With points, you can buy whatever you want at the supermarket.
They still chose the second option because they were not good at farming and did not have the necessary tools.
The alfalfa grew very quickly, and once the area had expanded to a certain extent, Bai Shuang informed Minister Hong that it was time to raise livestock.
Minister Hong quickly found someone to build livestock pens, using the newly fired bricks and tiles from the base.
Although the firing technique is not yet up to par, it is more than enough for making livestock pens.
Minister Hong instructed his men to make arrangements before coming to discuss the matter with Bai Shuang.
The two agreed that it would be better to raise rabbits at the beginning.
Not only does it have a strong reproductive capacity, producing 5-6 litters per year with 5-10 offspring per litter, but it also grows rapidly and has a short reproductive cycle.
Therefore, compared to other livestock farming methods, raising rabbits yields the fastest returns.
The next day, Bai Shuang had Bai Jiu and the others deliver several cages of baby rabbits and rabbit-raising information to Mr. Hong.
As for where the little rabbit came from, Mr. Hong wouldn't ask at all.
If anyone else asks, he can just say he doesn't know and that's it.
Anyway, this base commander is like a god, almost omnipotent, and can conjure up many things out of thin air.
With spring planting arrangements nearly complete, it's time to consider bringing the oil back.
Although the Babylonians hid well, they still had to avoid any unforeseen complications; they couldn't let the duck that was already in their mouth fly away.
Bai Shuang and Lu Yu had already discussed it and decided that the eight of them would go, along with two Babylonians to lead the way.
Lu Yu's work was handed over to Deputy Commander Zhu and Commander Liu, while Bai Shuang planned to hand over her work to Director Hong.
Actually, Mr. Hong was very busy. She originally planned to hand it over to Assistant Qin, but after what happened at the resettlement department last time, she really couldn't trust him.
When Bai Shuang told Mr. [Name] about this plan, he was overjoyed.
"Thank you for your trust, Commander Xie. I guarantee I will complete the mission."
Then, Bai Shuang and Lu Yu decided to leave.
Taking a plane is the fastest, but it's too conspicuous and will attract the attention of those wolves.
The best way is to sneak out by submarine. The base often sends submarines out to look for compatriots, so this won't attract attention.
Once out of their sight, separate and proceed toward your target.
Operate an inconspicuous submarine; it shouldn't be a submarine cabin unique to Chinese people, and ideally, it shouldn't even have any Chinese symbols.
Then, Bai Shuang remembered the Russian submarine in the space.
Why not take that ship out and disguise it a little more?
Bai Shuang prepared the sleeping potion; there was a group of living people inside.
Of course, those on our side should take the antidote in advance.
She, Lu Yubai, Xiao Zhao, and the other eight people were ready when they released the submarine. Xiao Zhao immediately sprayed the sleeping drug smoke into the vent, using double the usual amount.
After waiting a while, just in case, I sprayed it again.
They tried to pry open the submarine door from the outside with a machine, but after fiddling around for a long time, they still couldn't get it open.
Bai Jiu wiped the sweat from his forehead. "If Uncle Ling were here, that would be great."
With no other option, they brought in Xu Xin and Sun Xiangming, along with a few other professional naval personnel, to give it a try.
"A Russian submarine!"
They opened their eyes wide.
Deputy Commander Zhu and Commander Liu were also called over to discuss the matter.
Everyone agreed that even if the door were forcibly removed, it would be unusable, and the current conditions did not allow for its repair.
The equipment has frost, but we lack the expertise to address it.
Submarines are a national strategic asset, a powerful defense tool, and a top-tier military industry.
There's nothing we can do but wait for Mr. Ling and his technical team to return.
Even the pile of containers that Bai Shuang collected were not something that laymen could easily open; if they were forcibly cut open, the contents could very likely be damaged.
There was no other way, so Bai Shuang had to take it back. They would use Bai Shuang's submarine for the oil extraction.
Next, Bai Shuang will quietly make preparations for her long journey.
This is a secret; it's known only to a few high-ranking officials and cannot be disclosed to anyone else.
Their stated reason for going out was to personally search for their grandfather, father, and uncles.
On Sunday, Wenwen came to Baishuang to borrow a book.
She has been at the base for more than half a year, and her complexion has improved. Although she is still very thin, her spirits are much better than when she first arrived.
She and her husband would use their spare time to review what they had already learned before learning new material.
Bai Shuang suggested that she focus on gynecology because there are too few female doctors, and this is a gap in the market.
Wenwen blindly worships Bai Shuang, believing that everything she says must be correct and that she will absolutely obey her. Therefore, she puts a lot of effort into this aspect.
She knew that books were precious in the apocalypse. After finishing each one, she insisted on returning it and borrowing a new one.
Although Bai Shuang didn't intend to take them back, she had quite a few of each set stored here, but Wenwen and the others cherished them very much, subconsciously feeling that the books could only be properly preserved if they were kept with Bai Shuang.
It was a rare treat for an old classmate to visit, so Bai Shuang put down her work and the two chatted while eating sunflower seeds.
Before the natural disaster, Yu Wenwen was Bai Shuang's classmate and a big fan. She didn't live in Tangcheng, but when the disaster struck, she was trapped overnight and never saw her family again...
