"I've cleared out all the zombies around here. You guys block off the intersection of this street today. We still don't have enough arable land. I plan to develop this area into our vegetable greenhouses!"
Early in the morning, Lin Xue led everyone to a wide road she had chosen.
She plans to fence off the areas closest to her and with relatively wide roads, so she can use them to grow crops later.
The plot of land that was originally overgrown with weeds was actually suitable for planting, and there was no need to dig up the cement.
However, that place was a bit far from where they lived, so Lin Xue planned to gradually expand in that direction.
First, block off the roads closest to the base; this will make harvesting, transportation, and drying easier later.
Once an area is fenced off, all the zombies in the houses on both sides must be cleared out.
Don't be fooled by the small size of the space; it's actually a very time-consuming task to implement.
"Don't worry, boss! Leave this to us."
Fortunately, they would subconsciously collect any useful supplies they came across on a daily basis.
Closing off an intersection now is much easier than it was at the beginning.
Erzhuzi drove his Dongfeng brand truck and quickly brought over the bricks he needed.
These are cement bricks that were salvaged from other places.
It is more time-saving and labor-saving than using small bricks, and can save them a lot of time.
The base still has too few workers. If there were more people, these things could be done much faster.
After settling things over here, Lin Xue drove her pickup truck around the nearby streets and then began exploring new areas.
Every time Lin Xue explores a new area, she tries to clear out the zombies roaming the area.
The feeling of receiving a large amount of merit points every day is simply wonderful!
That day, Lin Xue cleaned up a new area and discovered that there was a huge aquarium there.
Because the apocalypse occurred in the middle of the night, there were no outsiders in the aquarium except for a few security guards.
After Lin Xue pried open the door and entered, she easily dealt with several zombie security guards. What appeared before her was a huge underwater world.
Surprisingly, all the marine life in this aquarium is still alive.
Especially some fish species with strong reproductive capabilities have almost become a plague in there!
"It seems the water here is not polluted, and there is a special regulating device."
"I don't know what principle it uses, but the underwater oxygen generation equipment is still working."
Lin Xue went back and closed the gate again to prevent zombies from wandering in and polluting the environment.
Then they began to carefully inspect the entire aquarium.
Ultimately, she decided to develop this place into her own exclusive fish farming base.
However, they need to find a way to block off several of the extra intersections, leaving only one road leading to their base.
With that in mind, Lin Xue scooped up a few fish and put them in the bucket, then closed the aquarium door and returned to the base.
I was busy all day and killed at least 2,000 zombies.
Seeing the extra 200 merit points in her account, Lin Xue happily handed the bucket she was carrying to Tian Shanchuan.
"Boss, after the apocalypse, didn't all the animals disappear? Where did you get this fish from?"
Tian Shanchuan looked at the lively fish in the bucket and couldn't help but swallow.
"These were caught in the aquarium, which has a separate water cycle, so they shouldn't be affected by the zombie virus!"
"I plan to put everything else aside for now, block off all the other roads leading to the aquarium, and leave only one road leading to our base!"
Lin Xue told Tian Shanchuan about her plans.
There are so many fish, we can't let the other survivors take them all.
So far, apart from the couple on the other side of the river, Lin Xue has not found any other lone survivors.
But who knows if this city still exists?
After all, she has only explored one-third of the city so far.
"Since there are fish there, we can protect it and use it specifically for fish farming in the future!"
"Boss, are you going to cook all these fish you brought back at once, or divide them into several meals?"
Tian Shanchuan couldn't hold back any longer; his mouth was watering. How many years had it been since he had eaten a truly fresh fish?
"You take half of it first, and keep the rest in a water tank!"
We brought back quite a lot of fish this time, enough to finish in one meal, but everyone might get stuffed.
Eating until you're stuffed is a bit unnecessary; Lin Xue thinks it's just right to eat it in two portions.
"I understand, boss. Leave this to me. I'll prepare a whole fish feast for you tonight!"
Tian Shanchuan carried the bucket into the kitchen, while the others were busy in the vegetable greenhouse.
Now that the seedlings are growing bigger and bigger, Tian Youcai and his team are separating the seedlings that are too dense and transplanting them to other empty plots.
Even so, there were still quite a few seedlings left over.
That's why they were so eager to cultivate new land.
Over the next few days, Lin Xue led them to block off roads everywhere, while Feng Wen drove an excavator to remove the cement bricks from the ground.
While the road was blocked over there, Feng Wen had also reclaimed about 10 mu of land.
With the roads already marked, Lin Xue led everyone to begin building the vegetable greenhouses.
The land had just been burned by Lin Xue with her strange fire!
Because Lin Xue has no spiritual power in her body, controlling the strange fire is extremely difficult.
It was late at night when 629 took over her body and helped her carry it out.
Otherwise, all this soil might be burned away in no time.
Once the vegetable greenhouses were built, everyone worked tirelessly to transplant seedlings inside.
Then, sweet potato seeds were planted, and seedling cultivation began.
It's too early to plant wheat this season, but too late to plant rice.
We can only grow more sweet potatoes and try to get through this year first.
The people at the base are very busy every day, but their lives are exceptionally fulfilling. Their range of activities is expanding, and many roads that were blocked have been cleared and expanded again.
As fields were reclaimed, their need for materials to build vegetable greenhouses grew increasingly urgent.
Lin Xue's exploration area has also expanded to half of the entire city.
She then found a plastics factory and two steel factories.
However, it would be too slow for her to work alone, so today Lin Xue planned to bring six people from Tangjia Village, along with Tian Youcai and Feng Wen.
They went out together to move supplies.
Sweetie was responsible for taking care of the household, along with Feng Yue and another young wife from the Tang family.
Lin Xue has cleared more than half of the zombies in the city, but in the more distant areas outside the city, countless zombies are still converging on it.
It's as if these zombies have a natural sense of direction; wherever there are survivors, they will instinctively wander in that direction.
Although it's impossible to locate survivors from a distance, it's as if guided by some unseen force; wherever people are, they wander in that direction.
