Chapter 37 Chapter 037【VIP】
Jin Suanpan, worthy of being a gold card NPC, is truly all-powerful. He currently manages the Taoyuan Inn, acting as Mingzhu's personal assistant, and a super-versatile one at that.
Every time Mingzhu makes a decision, even without prior notice, and most of the time it is about patching loopholes in the infrastructure system, Jinsuanpan will make sure to deal with a series of subsequent problems.
All existing positions, monthly distribution of supplies and wages, and even attendance records are calculated by Jinsuanpan.
Tonghua played a supporting role, working alongside Jin Suanpan. Together, the two of them managed the Taoyuan Base quite effectively. On the other hand, Mingzhu, the boss, was both lazy and incredibly busy.
But it wasn't Mingzhu's fault. His current combat power was already at its peak. He was strong, had a powerful Golden Finger, and would find things for Baiji to do when the time was right.
Look, when the "extreme cold weather" hit, Bai Jue had nothing important to do, so he simply continued to do what he had "inspired" to do in his previous life.
That's making nutrient solutions in a variety of flavors. When supplies are scarce, one can provide a day's worth of nutrients, making it an essential and important resource.
The interstellar world was like this in his previous life, and it was the same in this life. Mingzhu had a hunch that as long as Bai himself could create the nutrient solution, it would be very popular.
With this in mind, Mingzhu began to make the nutrient solution. Fortunately, Mingzhu was a skilled nutrient solution maker in his previous life. Mingzhu still remembered that before he came here, he was considering whether to make a nutrient solution with the flavor of snail noodles.
Well, let’s keep up the good work and continue to develop nutrient solution with snail noodle flavor!
Mingzhu was full of energy and started to get busy.
The residents of Taoyuan Base are actually not idle either.
The extreme cold weather hit, and the temperature dropped to -20 degrees Celsius on the first day. After that, it dropped by about 5 to 10 degrees Celsius every day. On the tenth day, the temperature had reached -60 degrees Celsius.
Even the breath I exhaled instantly condensed into frost.
Under such circumstances, 50 of the 100 plots of land are used to continue growing cotton, while the remaining 50 plots are used to grow cold-resistant crops.
In addition, the supplies that everyone found when searching outside could barely be given to Baizu for free.
But it's different in other places.
On the very first night of the extreme cold, many people froze to death. As the temperature continued to drop, even the southernmost tropical cities were covered in snow.
Everywhere was covered in white, and the streets were full of ruins. Apart from the zombies, even the mutated animals had disappeared.
As for the mutant plants, if they hadn't grown legs, they might have run away long ago. However, although they can't run, many of the mutant plants hibernate.
The same is true for the mutated plants cultivated in Anshan's hidden underground research institute.
They were all frozen like vegetable dogs, and they didn't dare to use their roots as legs to escape and find Bai You.
They all lived in a heated underground research institute and refused to move.
The current situation at Anshan Underground Research Institute is actually not bad, but the situation at Shuguang Base is not good.
As the temperature drops, the decision makers of the Dawn Base choose to concentrate most of the resources on the psychics, under the pretext that the Dawn Base relies on the psychics for protection.
This is not a lie, but it is not absolute.
At least the majority of those who built the Dawn Base defense system were ordinary people. As a result, when the extreme cold weather arrived, they went from being starving to being starving to being freezing.
It is possible that he would collapse in the blizzard at any time.
So, as expected, in order to survive, ordinary people began to organize themselves and walked step by step with their own legs towards the "Taoyuan Base".
Their journey was extremely difficult. It took a lot of time to walk from one end of the city to the other. It was normal for some people to fall down during the "migration".
Fortunately, due to the climate, the wandering zombies moved slowly and there was no threat from mutated plants and animals. Even though the journey was slow and people kept falling down along the way, most people still managed to reach the Taoyuan base successfully.
There is also a search and rescue team headed by Zhang Junfang. From the day the "extreme cold weather" arrived, they began to go out regularly, searching for survivors in City Z, City X and City C as much as possible.
This action, while not ineffective, was limited in effectiveness and didn't save many lives. In the extreme cold, with snow covering everything, there might be some "wild" survivors, but they were definitely few.
Unless you stay in one of the major bases.
However, because people in the major bases failed to take timely precautions against the sudden change in climate, many people froze to death on the first night.
In the following days, as the air temperature dropped, the survivors, lacking food and clothing, began to look for a way out.
The Dawn Base is okay. The Taoyuan Base in Taoyuan is close. You can walk to the Taoyuan Base for a few days and settle down. But in other places, people are struggling to survive.
"OK,
Mingzhu was sitting with his legs crossed, looking energetic.
"In addition to the snail noodle flavor L, I remember in my previous life I also made a stinky tofu flavor L nutrient solution."
"Cucumber and potato chip flavor," 184 followed Mingzhu's lead, emphasizing the flavor. "I like this flavor of nutrient solution."
"You don't drink the nutrient solution."
184 began to comb his soft fur.
"It's true that Tong doesn't drink nutrient solution, but host, humans do drink nutrient solution, and so do the two giant pandas you raise."
"Humans do drink nutrient solution, but those two..." Mingzhu was filled with dismay when he thought of the two giant pandas who ate and slept, and liked to break bamboo shoots and eat them openly, throwing away one after taking a bite.
Now they have occupied the first floor of the residence, just unwilling to go to their own room to rest. In order to keep them warm, Mingzhu also installed a stove on the first floor for the mother and son to keep warm.
Sometimes, when mother and son made small mistakes, Mingzhu would try to teach them a lesson, but people who loved the national treasure would stop him, saying that GunGun was so cute and just made small mistakes. As an owner, he should be generous and tolerant.
Anyway, as the boss, Mingzhu really didn't find a chance to teach the NPC a lesson for his preference for Yuanyuangun.
After a long time, Mingzhu also lost his temper. What could Gungun do wrong? The most he did was not realize his weight and often crushed the saplings he planted.
"Forget it, they prefer chewing bamboo to nutrient solution."
"Giant pandas naturally eat bamboo," 184 argued. "Host, you should plant more bamboo, ideally in the empty spaces around your house and street. When you're short of food, you can nibble on it like Big Gun and Little Gun."
Mingzhu: “…”
"What a great idea," Mingzhu praised dryly. "I never thought I could enjoy the same treatment as a national treasure!"
Chewing bamboo?
Damn it!
Smart and brilliant idea!
Only 184, the artificial idiot, could come up with this.
Mingzhu sighed, then decisively continued with the final step of preparing the nutrient solution. Soon, a scent that reached the top of his head and spread throughout the air.
As for snail noodles, those who love it love it very much, while those who don’t like it... feel like they are eating shit.
Mingzhu loves eating snail noodles, just like he loves fried stinky tofu. He loves it madly and can quite accept the smell of snail noodles from the nutrient solution.
However, aside from Mingzhu, the rest of the residents weren't particularly fond of it. When the distinctive aroma of snail noodles, along with the successful production of the nutrient solution, spread, the resting NPCs all covered their mouths and noses.
Among them, Silver Hammer, this man of iron will, started to shout.
"Who's eating shit late at night?"
Mingzhu: “…”
"Who ate shit? Boss?"
Mingzhu: “…”
"Fuck, boss, don't let this get you down!"
The two big men, Jin Dachui and Yin Dachui, rushed towards the room where Mingzhu was in their shorts.
Mingzhu wanted to kneel down when he saw their "protecting" behavior. Why were they yelling so loudly? Who the hell got fucked?
