Chapter 90 A Pure Land
"Ah! Come and see!"
"Oh my god, what happened overnight!"
“Who did this?”
The next morning, the people at the base woke up one after another and were shocked to find that the area around the villa was clean.
All the large debris blown by the strong wind was cleared away, revealing the original community road, which extended all the way to the community gate.
And those sundries were piled up on an open space in the community, like a small mountain.
Another part was scattered around the villa, forming roadblocks, just like the bunkers used for sniping in movies. If there were enemies, we could hide behind the bunkers and shoot.
This is equivalent to building a road for the base and a defensive barrier.
"Miss Qiao helped with this."
While eating, the gatekeeper team leader Jiang Yue proudly told the people around him about it, as if he was proud of having done it himself.
People immediately started talking: "Miss Qiao is amazing! Such a young girl can not only fly a plane, but also do this!"
Jiang Yue was silent for a moment when he heard about flying a plane.
The Cuihua survivors who had once boarded Qiao Lan's plane were also silent for a moment.
Miss Qiao is indeed amazing, and her skill in flying a plane is needless to say. I remember that when everyone first rode her plane, they were almost dead.
"How did she do it?" someone asked. "It must have been a huge undertaking overnight!"
"I heard that her special ability is telekinesis."
"oh!"
Everyone suddenly understood.
This ability is so convenient for infrastructure construction.
So everyone worked together and those who could move joined in the environmental cleanup.
Based on the large framework made by Qiao Lan, all small debris was cleared away and the open space and roads around the base were cleared.
After two or three days, the area around the base was as clean as before the apocalypse.
It is in stark contrast to the messy and chaotic environment in other nearby areas.
Anyway, as long as you have eyesight problems, you will know that this place is better than other places after taking a look.
As a result, many survivors in this community and surrounding blocks took the initiative to join the base, seeking shelter and support here.
Two new owners of the community contributed their own small villas, so the base reallocated the accommodation and adjusted the staffing of each team.
"You don't live in your own nice house, but you want to give it to others for the same price. Are you stupid?"
"That's right, how stupid! Our high-end residential complex has been thrown into chaos and destabilized by the influx of poor, homeless people because of this base. Those owners aren't staying home, but are meddling in this shabby base. Are they crazy?"
"Who doesn't have food and drink stored in their villa? Isn't it nice to take care of yourself? Why join the base and share the food and drink with others, and the house with others?"
Other community owners who did not join the base were privately very dissatisfied.
This high-end residential complex usually has strict access control and no one is allowed to enter casually. Now, if the owners were not afraid of the guns in the hands of Ye Qi and others, they would have come out to drive them away long ago.
As more and more people came to the base, they guarded their gates more and more tightly, fearing that people from the base would rob and occupy them.
But those were their own dark thoughts; the base had no intention of robbing them. Under Ye Qi's rule, the refuge was a legitimate one, and everything was above board.
In addition to some property owners, there was also the city’s military and police system that Ye Qi had contacted before, and many survivors also came with their families and relatives to settle down here.
In the absence of a formal official base, this small shelter founded by Ye Qi, who came from a state department, automatically gives people a sense of security and is the first choice for people who yearn for order.
A few days later, the base, which initially consisted of dozens of people, grew to a size of more than 200 people.
It is fully equipped, each unit has its own function and everything is in good order.
Meanwhile, in other parts of the city, the fighting among survivors intensified. With little hope of official rescue after the disaster, desperate people released the bestiality and malice hidden and suppressed in civilized times, and the living environment continued to deteriorate.
The Bloody Dawn Base can be described as a pure land.
As for Qiao Lan, while others were working, she stayed at home to rest. While others were eating light soup and side dishes, she had big meals every day. She even felt a little embarrassed about it.
It just so happened that Ye Qi came to discuss with her that day, giving her the opportunity to offer some ideas and contribute a little bit of strength.
"As the base grows in population, the houses won't be enough. We might need to build simple structures around it. Alternatively, we could dig deeper underground to create rooms to protect against the wind. Which method do you think is better?"
Qiao Lan asked back, "What do the other team leaders say?"
Ye Qi said: "Everyone thinks it's safer underground."
They were all frightened by the storm.
However, Qiao Lan knew that there would be no more storms, so he could build houses above ground or underground.
"How about we wait a while before considering building a house?" she suggested. "Right now, finding more supplies is more important."
Ye Qi pondered for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
With more people assigned to building houses, fewer people were out looking for supplies. The base was now constantly running out of food, daily necessities, and medicine. Although a rotation schedule had been set up, with several teams going out to look for supplies every day, it was still far from enough.
It is true that we should stock up more for emergencies. We can't always ask Qiao Lan for it when we are short of it. But it is too much to take advantage of one person.
Ye Qi felt that he owed Qiao Lan too much.
As for Qiao Lan, as soon as she saw Ye Qi's expression, she knew what he was thinking.
But she thought differently from him.
She felt that half of the houses in this high-quality community were still standing. In addition to many single-family and townhouses, there was also a small high-rise residential building. In total, there was plenty of space to live, so there was no need to rebuild the houses.
How can I allow others to sleep soundly beside my bed?
The Bloody Dawn base is built here. Those owners in the surrounding area who have not joined must either join and contribute their housing, or leave and not stay here to disrupt the order around the base.
What's the point of personal property rights in the apocalypse? In an environment where death is a constant threat, relying on the powerful is the only way out.
On the other hand, every powerful base will not allow other forces to exist within its vicinity, as that would harm its own security and interests.
In troubled times, there are rules that govern them.
Ye Qi has not yet started to clean up the surrounding owners, which is already quite merciful.
Qiao Lan didn't urge him.
He still has the devotion mentality from before the end of the world. Although he is iron-blooded and tough, he is not cruel enough.
Qiao Lan, however, has experienced everything in the apocalypse and is cold-hearted. Even though she knows that a large-scale mutation is coming and that the owners around her who refuse to join the base will suffer, she will not persuade those people to join.
You can't make a deal by rushing to the door.
Let them continue to watch the fun and make sarcastic remarks.
When they suffer hardships, they will come and take the initiative to rely on us, and the problem of insufficient housing at the base will naturally be solved.
That night, Qiao Lan went out alone.
