Chapter 145 Acid Rain is Coming
Although Lu Xingtang had not gone out in the past few days, he had checked the situation of the base while Lu Xingtang was asleep. The snow at the base had been cleared very cleanly and it had been operating normally. So after the snow melted, they planned to go out of the mountain to stock up on supplies for the New Year.
Supplies? Exchange with Su Cheng!
They gave the cow in their home to Su Cheng, and asked Su Cheng to exchange it for supplies of equivalent value so that they could have a happy New Year.
The cattle base was reluctant to slaughter such fat and strong cattle, so they kept them and maybe they could give birth to a calf this year.
Su Cheng saw Ji Yanmo's high spirits and Lu Xingtang's exhausted face, and he immediately understood that the two were now a real family. He said to Ji Yanmo, "Congratulations, but you have to buy me a drink!"
"no problem!"
After staying at the base for two days, Su Cheng arranged a small western-style building for them to live in next to his house. Seeing the base's rapid development, Lu Xingtang knew that Su Cheng had put in a lot of effort. "Grandpa Su would definitely be happy for you if he saw your results!"
Su Cheng nodded: "I think Dad would be very proud too!"
After returning from the base, they began to gradually prepare food for the New Year. There was no doubt that Su Cheng would come, so they had to prepare all the food.
After everything was ready, it was put into the space, and then the cleaning began. The house was cleaned up, and Ji Yanmo's room was cleaned up for Su Cheng to live in. Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang have been living in the same room since they got together.
In a blink of an eye, there were only two days left until the Chinese New Year. On this day, they pasted blessing characters, couplets, and window decorations, and started to prepare the reunion dinner on the next day, waiting for Su Cheng to come. Su Cheng came on time. Although the snow had melted, the snow on the top of the mountain did not melt so quickly, and the way up the mountain was difficult. Su Cheng came with bags of gifts.
As soon as Su Cheng arrived, he took a shower to get rid of the cold and changed his clothes. When he came out, the food was already on the table.
"It has been four years since the outbreak of the apocalypse, and this is the third year that the three of us have spent together! We are honored to be here!" Su Cheng's eyes were red, and he looked at the sky outside silently. Dad, sister, I'm fine, really fine.
"Come on, cheers to the third year!"
They were drinking beer. After the three of them clinked glasses, Lu Xingtang poured more beer. "We've survived four years of the apocalypse, and we can survive many more four years. In the future, we will all strive to live! So, no matter how many natural disasters happen in the future, don't give up on living. Cheers to hope."
Ji Yanmo stood up. "It's been a long journey for the three of us, from Sunshine Community to where we are now. We're not just allies, we're friends and family! No matter how many things we encounter in the future, I hope everything will be fine. If we're separated in the future, we must strive to survive and live long enough to reunite, once again fighting the apocalypse hand in hand! Cheers to our friendship!"
bump!
Because it was warm at home, the meal lasted until the evening. Su Cheng was drunk and was finally dragged back to the room by Ji Yanmo and thrown on the bed to sleep.
Su Cheng fell asleep, but Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo did not sleep. They stayed up all night long, hoping that the coming year would be smooth and peaceful.
When Su Cheng woke up in the morning, he saw a note on the table: "The food is in the kitchen, heat it up for yourself. We stayed up all night and are catching up on sleep. Happy New Year, no red envelope!"
Su Cheng smiled, put the note in his pocket, and walked towards the kitchen...
When Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo woke up, Su Cheng had already left. He also left a note: "I'm back at the base, don't worry. Happy New Year." There was no red envelope either.
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, it started snowing again, but it was not a blizzard, but a light snow. The snowflakes were flying in the air, like fairies dancing in the snow, which was very stunning and lovely.
Lu Xingtang looked at the snowflakes flying all over the sky and leaned on Ji Yanmo's shoulder: "Amo, acid rain is coming!"
“When?” Will it come?
Lu Xingtang said: "March 27th, today is February 19th, we have to speed up the installation of tempered glass in the house to prevent acid rain from corroding our house!" In the previous life, acid rain lasted for seven days and the rain was very heavy, otherwise the base would not have been destroyed.
"Let's get some supplies and exchange them for tempered glass with Su Cheng. At the same time, have them prepare their own protection!" Acid rain is terrifying. Rainwater is highly corrosive, and the acid rain in the apocalypse is even more intense than usual. It will corrode your skin if you're exposed to it. If you don't hide in time, you'll die in the acid rain, your flesh and blood will be instantly corroded by the acid rain, leaving not even a skeleton.
He had experienced acid rain in the Phantom Galaxy and knew the consequences it would bring.
"I just don't know how much tempered glass Su Cheng and his team have produced? He will definitely be willing to give us a batch, but I also stockpiled a lot of tempered glass before!"
"Exchange as much as you can!" If it's not enough, just use your own. When it's acid raining, Su Cheng won't risk coming to their house. The base is enough to give her a headache.
After the third day of the New Year, Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang went to see Su Cheng. Su Cheng said that the tempered glass had been prepared for them, but the quantity they needed was too large. As the base director, he could give it to them unconditionally, but the management of the base had objections to this.
At the beginning, there was a concern that the management and other employees would misappropriate base supplies, so relevant regulations were specially formulated. No one is allowed to misappropriate base supplies. Those who want base supplies must exchange them for supplies of equal value. If anyone misappropriates base supplies without authorization, the exchange will not be allowed and the person will be removed from his or her position in the base.
Because he is the base director, even if the management knows that it is for Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo, they must give a reasonable explanation to the base. Their top management's agreement does not mean that the people below will agree.
Su Cheng was worried that someone would take advantage of their position at the base to oppress the poor or the rich, so he set up a supervisory department. No matter who wanted to use the base's supplies, the supervisory department would know it first and tell everyone.
Because he was the head of the base, although the tempered glass was distributed, it was not sent out of the base, so everyone did not publicize the news for the time being. Once the tempered glass was sent out and no equivalent supplies were sent in, it would cause public outcry.
Now Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang have arrived and learned about Su Cheng's dilemma. Lu Xingtang said, "Su Cheng, you really don't have to feel embarrassed! Tempered glass is already precious in the end times. We have never thought of just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others' labor. We have always planned to exchange it with the base for supplies!"
"Could you discuss with management how much supplies are needed? We'll work hard to gather enough supplies to exchange for this batch of tempered glass. As you know, our ability to gather supplies won't take advantage of the base."
Su Cheng was very sorry. Although she couldn't give the tempered glass to Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo for free, she knew that Lu Xingtang liked gold and jade. The Sheng brothers had stockpiled a large amount of gold and jade. Everyone in the base knew about his hatred for the Sheng brothers, so they all said that they didn't want the Sheng family's gold and jade, and the base didn't want it either, so they gave it to him!
