After three hours of emergency repairs, the system was finally fixed and the electricity was restored. However, the electricians were sunburned by the vicious sun and their skin peeled off. Their bodies were all red and they were grimacing in pain. The moment Lu Xingtang saw their skin peeling, he asked the hospital to be prepared. When they came back from the emergency repairs to cool down, he would apply ointment on their bodies to relieve the pain of their skin.
After the emergency repairs were completed, they were sent to the hospital for timely treatment.
Since April 27, the temperature has been fixed at 68 degrees, neither rising nor falling. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief because the base has been trying to keep everyone alive. The current situation at the base is very good, but everyone can't stand the heat. More and more people are suffering from heatstroke, and half of the medicinal materials stockpiled at the base have been used up.
Lu Xingtang found the fox special assistant and stored the prepared medicinal herbs in the space in the base warehouse. Seeing that there was still space in the warehouse, he took out a lot of unprepared and fresh medicinal herbs. The weather was so hot that the medicinal herbs would dry out quickly and be put into use.
After filling the base's medicinal herb warehouse, Lu Xingtang counted the herbs in the space. There were still many herbs in the space, many of which she had planted during the apocalypse. The quantity was considerable. It was enough for the survivors of the base to use for three or two months. Since both the base and the space were growing herbs, they should be able to last until the extreme heat ended.
On the afternoon of May 1st, Lu Xingtang was meeting in his office with people from the wind power station and officials from the GS provincial government and GJ. The weather was so hot that they wanted to build a solar power station. The wind power station had been having problems recently, and the electricians had been working very hard to repair it. If Lu Xingtang hadn't felt sorry for them, they might have fainted from the sun during the repair process and would not have been able to do the repair work at all.
The sun is extremely strong right now. If they had solar power generation, their base wouldn't have to worry about electricity problems.
Lu Xingtang thought that solar power generation was feasible. She had previously stockpiled a lot of human-powered generators, solar generators, and solar charging panels, but had never used them. If they could be taken out and used, then she would take them out. If they could not be taken out, then she would not arouse suspicion.
"I agree to build a solar power station, but since the weather is too hot, we can rest during the day and work at night!" Lu Xingtang hesitated and said, "We have several underground warehouses. One of the underground warehouses is empty of supplies. The workers who build the solar power station can go to the underground warehouse to rest during the day!" The underground warehouse is much cooler than the residential area. After the solar power station is built, they will return to their own houses. The warehouse still needs to store supplies.
So the decision was made to build a solar power station. This was a matter of great benefit to the people's livelihood. The GS provincial government would provide manpower, materials and solutions. As for the workers, they would be selected from the base.
This means that Lu Xingtang and Lancheng Base do not need help, so Lu Xingtang simply does not help and just waits for the solar power station to be built.
When Lu Xingtang returned to the office after the meeting, he saw Jian Qingqing standing at the office door in a sullen manner. Her face was full of grievance and her eyes were wet. It was obvious that she had been crying. "Jian Qingqing? What happened? Did Su Cheng bully you?"
The moment Jian Qingqing heard Lu Xingtang's voice, tears almost came out, but she tried hard to hold them back. She took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice steady: "Su Cheng didn't bully me. We are good. Su Cheng has completely accepted me in his heart!" She just didn't know when Su Cheng would completely accept her and they would start a formal relationship: "I'm sorry, Base Commander, I made a fool of myself. I came to you for a document that needs your signature."
Lu Xingtang looked Jian Qingqing up and down and said, "Just tell me if you need any help." "Thank you, Base Commander!" After signing, Jian Qingqing left.
Lu Xingtang found Ji Yanmo, "Ah Mo, do you know what happened between Su Cheng and Jian Qingqing? Jian Qingqing just cried. This is the first time I've seen Jian Qingqing cry!"
Ji Yanmo shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. He hadn't observed the relationship between Su Cheng and Jian Qingqing for a long time, so he had a general idea of what was going on. He then used his special ability to check it out, and then his face darkened, "Someone in our base is being dishonest!"
"Dishonest?" Lu Xingtang frowned immediately: "What happened?"
"The arrival of the extreme heat is unbearable for them, especially the survivors of the official Shancheng base. Before the collapse of the official Shancheng base, these survivors were wealthy, with no worries about food and drink. But when they arrived at our base, they have to earn points for food and shelter, relying on points to survive! Initially, they wanted to gain a foothold in the Lancheng base, working diligently to earn points to exchange for supplies. But after the extreme heat outbreak, they no longer wanted to earn points steadily, so they set their sights on management, regardless of their position!"
Looking at Lu Xingtang's cold face, he continued, "Especially the male management!"
Lu Xingtang suddenly realized: "So their dishonesty is because they want to marry someone in management and avoid hard labor?"
Ji Yanmo nodded: "Your classmates are the ones they focus on, Su Cheng, Hu Li, and Luan Yuqing are the top priorities!"
"That's why Jian Qingqing feels so wronged!" Lu Xingtang immediately called over Su Cheng, Hu Li, and Luan Yuqing. The three of them hurried over, sweating profusely. "Base Commander, what do you want to talk to us about?"
Lu Xingtang asked them to sit down under the air conditioner. After they had relaxed, he handed each of them a cup of sour plum soup. After they finished drinking, he asked, "When are you planning to get married?"
"Get married?" The three looked at Lu Xingtang in confusion. Seeing the teasing in Lu Xingtang's eyes, they immediately understood and sighed helplessly: "Base Commander, you don't know that those women are like crazy. We can't get rid of them. They seem to have clairvoyance. They will find us no matter where we are!"
Su Cheng was somewhat resentful. "Recently, several good-looking young men have come to Jingjing. Jingjing rejected them all, but they're swarming around her like flies. I'm worried... Jingjing will fall for their persistent tactics! Look at me! I fell for Jingjing's tactics!"
Ji Yanmo breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Jingjing was crying. I saw it, so I learned about the situation! It seems that they all want to be with rich men! You three should work harder and check on the other management members. If someone wants to get married and have children, I agree with them, but they must choose people with good character. Those who are too ambitious are fine! If they think these people are not good enough, I will deal with these dishonest survivors!"
The three of them gave Lu Xingtang a thumbs-up. "People like this who are overambitious and want to take shortcuts are terrifying. Dealing with them now will be very beneficial to the base. Letting them come into contact with management may not necessarily be a good thing!"
It would be disastrous if some people, with dark hearts, used marriage to enter management and destroy their base. Although such behavior is unlikely to succeed, it is best to prevent it in advance and serve as a warning to everyone!
