The breeding farm area selected by Yang Guoqin was a roughly developed piece of land. All the trees and flowers had been removed, leaving only a small amount of wild grass just sprouting. Workers were already laying pipes, but it would take at least several months to completely build the factory from scratch.
The fastest time would be two months.
Yang Guoqin, who arrived late, drove towards Ye Zhou as soon as he got in the car.
He didn't bring his orderly this time, only his driver was with him.
"How is it? It's not bad here, right?" Yang Guoqin said with a smile as he approached. "This land was originally intended to be used to build a woolen mill, but later it was said that all large factories were concentrated in the Changfeng base, which is safer, so it was shelved."
Ye Zhou was a little curious: "Eggs are usually not put in one basket. If something happens to Changfeng Base..."
Yang Guoqin shook his head: "Changfeng has a good geographical location. If anything happened to it, we would have been gone long ago."
The factory must be built in the safest place so that there can be a stable supply of materials.
Yang Guoqin: "It can be considered a lesson learned through blood and tears. Luoyang was not actually on the front line before, but after the previous bases had problems, we became the front line. The factories in those bases were also gone, and all the manpower and material resources invested in the early stage were wasted."
Although there were still zombies outside the barbed wire during this period, they only came in small groups, and the situation where all the soldiers in the base went to the battlefield to resist together did not happen again.
"How did the zombie tide come about?" Ye Zhou said, "I haven't seen a large number of zombies coming over during this period of time."
Yang Guoqin smiled bitterly and said: "We don't know either. Scientists have proposed several hypotheses, but they have not been verified yet."
"Anyway, the current situation is that if the zombie wave doesn't come, we can live in peace. If it comes, we have to find a way to deal with it."
Ye Zhou nodded: "By the way, is the photon cannon fully charged?"
When talking about this, Yang Guoqin's smile became more sincere: "I have charged it, but I don't know whether I should use it recently."
Logically speaking, he should try the power of the photon cannon immediately after charging it.
But the problem is, what if a tide of zombies arrives and the photon cannon is still charging?
The last zombie tide was only small to medium-sized, and could be resisted with guns.
But if it turns into a super-large zombie tide, we will have to use artillery shells, missiles and tanks.
The fighter jets at Luoyang Base can still fly, but the missiles are gone.
There is only one base that can produce missiles, and every base is trying to get one. This thing is a consumable, and the production speed cannot keep up with the consumption speed.
"If there really is a large zombie tide coming and the photon cannon has no energy, then wouldn't my money be wasted?" Yang Guoqin sighed. He asked A anxiously, "Boss Ye, how long will you stay here? Will you go to other bases later?"
He was now worried that Ye Zhou would just walk away on his own and he wouldn't be able to stop him.
Ye Zhou shook his head: "I won't leave for now."
Ye Zhou didn't say the reason, and Yang Guoqin didn't ask any more questions.
"Oh, there's one more thing." Yang Guoqin pursed his lips, hesitated for a few seconds and said, "I want to borrow someone from you."
Ye Zhou frowned: "Borrow someone?"
Yang Guoqin glanced in the direction of Zou Ming and Chen Shu: "Zou Ming and Chen Shu, were they both soldiers before?"
Yang Guoqin thought for a moment and said, "Zou Ming doesn't look like him. Chen Shu should have served in the army."
"You're quite accurate." Ye Zhou said with a smile, "But it's no use for you to talk to me. You can go find them in person. As long as it's not working hours, they can do whatever they want at other times. I have no objection."
Yang Guoqin: "You are a very generous boss."
Ye Zhou shrugged: "I'm not Zhou Paopi, I can't ask them to work for me 24 hours a day."
"But what do you want from them?" Ye Zhou asked curiously.
Yang Guoqin ate a candy and handed one to Ye Zhou. "There aren't many zombies outside recently. I want to organize a few teams to check around and get rid of the zombies around to prevent them from gathering together."
"It's better to be prepared. We can't just stay in the base and wait for the zombies to attack."
Ye Zhou: "Then go and ask."
Ye Zhou felt that this was dangerous - if it were him, he would not be willing to go out.
But he couldn't just refuse on behalf of Zou Ming and Chen Shu.
When Yang Guoqin went to find Zou Ming and the others to ask, Ye Zhou was walking nearby. He took a deep breath and smelled the fragrance of grass at the tip of his nose. When he looked up, he could see birds spreading their wings in the trees in the distance.
Although the zombie crisis has come, the earth is still full of vitality.
Whether human or animal, they all have to be strong to survive.
Cao'er has gone to pick wild flowers with others.
They stayed in the supermarket for a long time. During the Daliang Dynasty, the bark of the trees was peeled off, and they had no mood to pick flowers.
Now that they have changed their environment and the area is safe enough, their suppressed love of beauty has come out.
Not only Cao'er and the others, but Wu Yan and the others as well.
The lower-class people in the Daliang Dynasty could not buy any decorations because they had no money, so natural wild flowers were the decorations that were within their reach.
Ye Zhou even watched Wu's wife pin a small purple flower on Wu Yan's ear.
The couple seemed very satisfied.
The children didn’t come out this time, so the adults had to pick some for them.
Ye Zhou wanted to give her a warning, but before he could say anything, Cao'er's mother shouted, "Pick less! Just pick two handfuls per person! You have to leave some for others!"
Others responded with laughter: "Got it!"
"Just pick some for the kid, no more than two handfuls!"
Ye Zhou looked at them and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
When he realized that he was smiling, his face was already a little stiff.
Ye Zhou touched his cheek and felt calm.
"Boss Ye!" Yang Guoqin stood beside Zou Ming and the others and shouted to Ye Zhou, "Come here!"
Ye Zhou walked towards them.
"Zou Ming and Chen Shu both agreed." Yang Guoqin said to Ye Zhou with a hint of apology, "They will go in the morning and will definitely be back before noon."
Ye Zhou looked at Zou Ming, then at Chen Shu. He couldn't help but ask, "What if I get the virus outside?"
Chen Shu smiled at him: "No, we are in good health."
Ye Zhou frowned: "Can a good body block the virus?"
Yang Guoqin quickly said: "We will distribute equipment. Everyone who goes out must be fully armed, and they must be strictly disinfected after returning."
Ye Zhou: "So you said before that they need to be quarantined, so they don't need to be quarantined after they come back?"
Yang Guoqin stopped talking. Ye Zhou looked at Zou Ming. He sighed and said to Zou Ming, "Come here for a moment."
Zou Ming followed Ye Zhou and walked to a nearby place.
After Ye Zhou was sure that Yang Guoqin couldn't hear their conversation, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "I thought you would refuse!"
"If we come back with the virus, the whole supermarket will be destroyed. What if we all become zombies?!"
"I don't know whether there is danger outside, and I also believe that you and Chen Shu will not be bitten by zombies! But the virus is not a zombie, the virus is much scarier than a zombie!" Ye Zhou said in one breath and looked at Zou Ming's face.
Zou Ming had no expression, just like always.
No matter what Ye Zhou said to Zou Ming, if Zou Ming showed such an expression, Ye Zhou would only think that he was steady.
But now he wanted to grab Zou Ming's shoulders and shake him hard to wake him up.
Even if you sympathize with the people here, this is not their own plane and they have no responsibility for it.
It's okay to help within your ability, but it's outrageous to gamble with your own safety and the safety of the entire supermarket.
Zou Ming looked at the mixed expressions on Ye Zhou's face and actually curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
Ye Zhou saw his expression clearly with his sharp eyes and was furious: "You are still laughing? You can still laugh?"
Zou Ming shook his head slightly, his tone carrying a barely perceptible indulgence: "What Chen Shu said is true. After we signed the contract with the system, as long as we are not in the original plane, we will not be affected by bacteria, viruses and infectious diseases."
"Otherwise, every time we go to a plane, we will bring different bacteria and viruses with us, and we ourselves will be the source of the disease."
Ye Zhou blinked: "Why don't I know?"
Zou Ming was silent for a while: "...I thought you knew."
Ye Zhou let out a long sigh: "So that's how it is. No wonder I felt like something was wrong, but couldn't tell exactly what was wrong."
He changed the subject: "But it's still dangerous for you to go out. It's okay if you don't go out."
"Besides, Yang Guoqin can't give you any benefits." Ye Zhou, "If you sympathize with the people here, you can do something else to help them. There is no need to put yourself in danger. If something happens to you, I..."
Zou Ming was stunned: "What?"
Ye Zhou sighed again: "How can I explain this to your relatives and friends?"
Zou Ming: "...I told you, I'm an orphan."
Ye Zhou shook his head: "Isn't there someone who left something for you? Doesn't that count as your relatives or friends? I think sometimes family affection cannot be judged only by blood relationship."
Zou Ming's expression turned a little ugly: "It's not family affection."
Ye Zhou did not refute: "Friendship is fine."
Zou Ming: "It's not friendship either."
Ye Zhou looked at his expression and asked carefully: "Is it love?"
Zou Ming agreed.
Ye Zhou muttered quietly: "You have such a strong taste."
Zou Ming finally couldn't stand it anymore: "He is very good, no one can help but love him."
Ye Zhou waved his hand: "I'm not talking about that. I mean, the other party raised you and left you supplies. This is almost like being a mother. Do you think this is love?"
Zou Ming: "...I never considered him an elder."
Ye Zhou didn't pour cold water on him, thinking it would be better to leave this topic at that.
So Ye Zhou changed the topic back to the previous one: "Then be careful when you go out. Nothing else matters. What matters is whether you can come back safely."
"Before you protect others, you must protect yourself first."
Ye Zhou: "I know it's selfish of me to say this, but for me, this is not the land where I was born and raised, it's not my country, and there are no compatriots of mine here. Although our cultures seem similar, they are them, and we are us."
“You have to remember that, too.”
Ye Zhou: "Sometimes being a little selfish is not a bad thing."
He looked into Zou Ming's eyes: "Did you remember?"
Zou Ming's eyes were very deep, as if there was a bottomless well inside. Ye Zhou seemed to be a person standing outside the well. He looked inside and felt as if there was a pair of hands in the well, as if they were going to pull him down in the next second.
