Chapter 146 Upgrade
He had wanted to send it to Lu Xingtang for a long time, but because the quantity of gold and jade was too large, it was not easy for him to deliver it alone.
Lu Xingtang's eyes lit up when he heard this. "Go and negotiate the quantity of supplies first. I want this batch of gold and jade. I won't take it for nothing. I'll exchange it with supplies that are extremely precious to you!"
Su Cheng was very curious, but Lu Xingtang refused to say anything, so he had to find someone from the management to discuss it.
After negotiation, a price was finally given.
Everyone, including those in the supervisory department, knew that Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo had made great efforts to transform Shuanglong Base into Hope Base. They could live smoothly in the apocalypse because of the efforts of these two people, who secretly dealt with many troublemakers and evil people, so they were given preferential prices.
Lu Xingtang smiled when he saw the amount of supplies. These supplies were really not much for them, but they were very much for ordinary people, and they might have to search a lot to find them.
After Lu Xingtang got the list of supplies, he took some gold and jade and returned to Qing'an Peak.
Lu Xingtang did not put the gold and jade into her own space, but temporarily placed them in Ji Yanmo's space. She would wait until all the gold and jade hoarded by the Sheng brothers were collected and put them into the space together. She was looking forward to the huge changes in the space.
The Sheng brothers have really amassed a lot of wealth over the years. They have hoarded a lot of gold and jade. No one knows where they got it from, but when you think about how the Sheng family was once the richest family in the imperial capital and had an extraordinary background, it suddenly doesn't seem surprising that they can hoard so much gold and jade.
As soon as they left, the base immediately began transforming itself into a fortress. The research team had clearly stated that strong alkaline acid rain would descend upon Hangzhou by the end of March, so the tempered glass factory continued production and even added several additional lines.
Protective clothing is also being produced overtime.
Lu Xingtang prepared the supplies in advance in the space according to the quantity on the supply list. Fearing that they would be discovered, some of the supplies were made old. They also went hunting in the mountains and exchanged the prey for food.
This time, they hunted a few wild goats, but Lu Xingtang was reluctant to give them to them, so he put the wild goats in the space and raised them. He used the wolf meat, pythons, wild boars, jackals and muntjacs that he had hunted before to replace the tempered glass at the base.
Ji Yanmo went to the base alone, asked for a truck, and took away the remaining gold and jade.
Lu Xingtang and his team loaded the supplies into the truck, and at the same time put the gold and jade into the space.
The gold and jade stored by the Sheng family are all top-tier treasures, and they are immediately upgraded after being absorbed by the space.
The overall area of the space has doubled. The original four warehouses have now become six. The villa area remains unchanged. The grassland has expanded, and the black soil area has increased by 10,000 mu, now totaling 110,000 mu. The fish pond, pigpen, and pet villa have also doubled in size.
A new mountain range and a new river were added, connecting to the three existing rivers. The library, playground, badminton court, soccer field, basketball court, lotus pond, garden, and tree-lined running track were doubled in size.
Moreover, there was a new building in the space: the hospital! The hospital was old and only had three floors, but Lu Xingtang understood that the space hospital would definitely be upgraded.
Lu Xingtang immediately transferred all the medical equipment he had stockpiled to the hospital, and placed the medical instruments in the respective departments and operating rooms provided by the hospital. Without the medical instruments, the warehouse suddenly became much more spacious.
Lu Xingtang decided to find a time to sort all the supplies into six warehouses according to their categories, which would make it easier to find supplies.
After the gold and jade in the truck were stored in the space, they put all the supplies into the truck, drove around outside, consumed some fuel, and returned to the base to exchange tempered glass with the base.
The base management was stunned when they saw that the supplies they sent were all wild beast meat, fresh herbs, some wild herbs and seeds, two guns, and other daily necessities, as well as other construction materials, filling up an entire truck. They asked for a lot of supplies, but also gave preferential prices. The supplies sent by Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo exceeded their demand.
Lu Xingtang was very calm: "It's enough. When we don't want to live outside anymore, we can return to the base and exchange these supplies for basic living supplies and give them to us!"
The management thought it was okay, so they registered everything and put the tempered glass on a truck for Lu Xingtang and the others. They also gave them some extra tempered glass. "If it's not enough, come back to the base and find us. We don't need any supplies this time, just come and get them!"
"Wait until we have installed it and then we'll see! It should be enough!" Even if it's not enough, they won't look for a base, they have it themselves!
It was still this truck, and Su Cheng insisted on delivering the tempered glass with them. Lu Xingtang was helpless. With Su Cheng joining, they really had to rely on manpower to deliver the tempered glass to the top of the mountain. No matter how good the quality of the tempered glass was, it would inevitably break due to bumps and collisions in the mountains.
So, Lu Xingtang took out a photo album from his backpack and handed it to Su Cheng: "Su Cheng, this photo album is what we found in your house after we opened the door after you left the imperial capital. Take a look!"
The moment Su Cheng saw the photo album, his eyes turned red: "This is my family album, the one I have been looking for for a long time!" He took the album tremblingly, gently opened the first page, and saw their family portrait. This family portrait was photoshopped. Sister Su Yuan died, so it was impossible for them to take a family portrait. He took Su Hao to take a family portrait, leaving a place for Sister Su Yuan, and photoshopped Sister Su Yuan's best photo next to it.
At that time, Su Hao cried for a long time when he saw this photo.
"Su Cheng, we're leaving first. Please keep the photo album safe. If you lose it again, no one will pick it up for you. So please keep it for you!" Lu Xingtang winked at Ji Yanmo, and immediately left the Hope Base and drove the truck back to their Qing'an Peak. He still looked around vigilantly, and after making sure that there was no one around, he put the car and the tempered glass into the space.
After returning home, they unloaded the tempered glass and placed it in the yard in front of their house. Then, Ji Yanmo and Lu Xingtang began to plan the use of tempered glass. They also wanted to turn the house into a fortress.
After making the plan, Ji Yanmo entered Lu Xingtang's space, which was the hardware warehouse floor, and found a lot of related hardware tools. Su Cheng also gave them a lot of tools, and was worried that they would not be enough, so he found some more.
They did not build a bunker immediately, but remodeled the pigpen, cattle and sheep pen, and replanned the vegetable field. After that, they cut down trees to build the frame and roof, and finally installed tempered glass on the frame.
Lu Xingtang was worried that Su Cheng would come to their house at any time, so he went down the mountain and hid the truck.
Fortunately, she had foresight. Just as she hid the truck, she saw Su Cheng coming. Seeing her at the foot of the mountain, Su Cheng asked her in confusion: "Why did you come down the mountain? Is there something wrong?"
Lu Xingtang pointed to where the car was hidden and said, "I was worried that it might have been stolen, so I came down the mountain to check it out! Only when I see it with my own eyes can I feel at ease!"
Su Cheng also saw the car, which was hidden very well by weeds and wild trees. If Lu Xingtang hadn't pointed it out to him, he wouldn't have been sure that their truck was hidden here.
