Chapter 613: Mist. Departure to the Tang Dynasty
Three months passed in a flash, and the Qingshi Base was officially completed and renamed Qingshan Base. Although it had the same name as a mental hospital, no one cared, as it was named after the green mountains and clear waters.
Not all the buildings in the base have been completed. A total of 200 houses and a dormitory that can accommodate 50 people have been built on the mountain. It is located on the right side of the Wuzhi River, close to the mountain.
Ten greenhouses were built on the other side. Chu An provided seeds. The first crop of Chinese cabbage had been eaten, and many people cried that day.
The Five Finger River was the name given by Chu An. The more she looked at it, the more it looked like a human hand.
This place will be used as a living area, and markets and factories will be built around it in the future, mainly for light industry.
The flat land that was opened up before Gao Shan was not wasted. Li Qing planned to build a villa and invited some rich people to come in the future... ahem...
Currently, houses can only be made of wood. After all, there are many trees here. In the past, we prevented logging and protected the forest, but now that humans can no longer survive, we can only take care of one thing first.
Wooden houses are not good at keeping out the cold, so they can only rely on thick plastic and insulation boards. There are not many insulation boards in Chuan's space. If he keeps some for himself, he can still build three more houses.
Chu An let Li Qing decide on his own, and later discovered that it was used in a dormitory where workers lived.
She felt that she would never be as good as Li Qing in dealing with people because she was too selfish.
Fortunately, there is no need to protect against the cold yet, so Chu An told them to build a brick house within two years.
Chu An also took Li Qing out to purchase goods and drove all three trucks of the shelter. People only saw the huge convoy going out and then coming back in a huge convoy.
But on the way back, there were constant squeaking, clattering and calls of various animals in the car.
Someone saw a rooster with a fiery red crown through the corner of the flying canvas and ran home in panic. When others asked him what he saw, he would not tell them.
The mystery was soon solved, and the people in the shelter were stunned. Many of them thought they were dazzled, as they could still see chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cows, and sheep two years after the apocalypse.
She also picked four dogs for Li Qing, two Caucasian and two Tibetan mastiffs, all half-grown dogs, to guard the house. Their parents had gone mad into the mountains at some point, only coming back occasionally to see their owners, and not paying much attention to their children.
Gu Ye felt that Chu An did it on purpose. In case her parents missed their child in the future, she could take the opportunity to come and see Li Qing.
As the logistics boss, Koi led the people to unload the truck happily, and no one here ever frowned.
Bo Zai dragged Zhou Shen over to join in the fun, and advised him to interact with more people, saying that he shouldn't practice boxing every day, as it would easily turn him into a fool.
Zhou Shen didn't become a fool from boxing, but he almost became a fool from looking at these little animals. The boy couldn't help but recall the day he met Li Qing. The sun was so bright that he thought he was going to die, so he kindly threw the only moldy grass root to a little girl.
The child was about three or four years old, and later he found out that she was five years old because she was too small due to the natural disaster. The little girl didn't want him and looked at him in surprise. Later, the little girl was picked up by Koi, and he realized that he had walked to someone else's camp. The little girl was angry with the adults and was angry here alone.
He still had the chance to get angry with his elders. What a blessing! He wished his mother would scold him like she used to, for stepping into puddles on rainy days, for fighting, for falling in love too early...
Then that day he was beaten up as a bad guy, fortunately Li Qing showed up in time. He squinted against the light, first looking at the sister he was protecting, then at the smelly mother not far away, and understood his original intention like a prophet.
Zhou Shen was so hoarse that he couldn't speak. Because he hadn't had any water for a long time, he couldn't even cry.
Li Qing gave him water and food but did not take him in. The next day, the main group left and he wanted to follow for some reason. However, his mother and sister were too heavy and he could not walk fast. As he walked, he could not see the people in front of him.
"What are you thinking about?" Bo Zai pushed him, "Look, is that a Tibetan mastiff over there?"
Zhou Shen’s thoughts were pulled back by Bo Zai. Looking at the dog that was as strong as a lion, he did not feel scared but felt safe instead.
His mother used to run a pet shop, so he was familiar with the habits of dogs. He wanted to help train the dogs. With the dogs protecting Li Qing, he wouldn't have to worry so much about protecting him, and he would have more time to practice boxing.
Li Qing...No need to, I can protect myself.
Chu An gave out all the livestock in pairs, 50 each of chickens, ducks and geese, and 20 each of pigs, cows and sheep. Only one-tenth of the space was given away.
In the past few years, they have no natural enemies in this space and have been reproducing continuously. Their homes have expanded more than ten times, and their numbers have reached a level that has left Chu An dumbfounded.
Chu An didn't dare to keep too many vegetables and fruits, as the base didn't have the ability to keep them fresh, so he kept enough to last for about seven days. He also kept 40,000 kilograms of corn, 1,000 kilograms of rice, 1,000 kilograms of flour, and some dry goods that are easy to preserve, as well as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
Of course, the most important thing is the seeds, which had been given to her long time ago. In order to increase the yield of crops, she also specially asked Li Qing to find a lot of water tanks and jars that can store water, and filled them all with space stream water.
As for the medicines, she had provided some to the health center before, and she also left some emergency medicines with a long shelf life for Li Qing. In the end times, medicines can not only save lives but also be used as currency, similar to gold before.
If the Qingshan base can no longer operate one day, these drugs can help it survive for a year or two. Of course, this is the last resort. The Qingshan base is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As long as there is no man-made disaster, it will not easily go bankrupt.
If it was a man-made disaster... as long as Li Qing gave her some compensation, she could become a bounty hunter and come back to stretch her muscles.
Parting is always sad. Chu An didn't want to have a reluctant farewell scene, but he also didn't want to leave without saying a word. There was no need for that.
She asked Li Qing, Gangzi and Jinli to send her out of the city, and the three of them had a barbecue outdoors. This time, Gangzi and Gu Ye acted as barbecue chefs, while the others were only responsible for eating.
Old Chu patted Li Qing on the shoulder and said, "If you can't make it, just come to Uncle Chu. It's no big deal. Don't think too hard."
Li Qing's mouth twitched, and parting didn't seem that sad, "..."
"If you have a good girl, keep her by your side and don't have children for the time being. Medical conditions are not good these days and the girl will suffer. Uncle Chu, I'm not urging you to get married. I just want someone who understands you and stays with you. Even if you fall into poverty in the future, you won't be alone."
Sadness has turned into resentment...
Chu An smiled without saying a word, picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, squinted his eyes, and was very satisfied.
