Chapter 78 Cold-Resistant Potatoes
As soon as Lu Xingtang finished speaking, the atmosphere became solemn. Everyone took their positions and stared at the people who came to collect the protected grain, carrying guns, swords, or maces, with a cigarette in their mouths, and arrogantly entered the community, followed by people pushing a dozen carts.
The building heads of buildings A, D, F, and G were overjoyed to see the Liuxu Gang. Their hunger and fear vanished as they hurried downstairs, bowing and nodding to them. "Brother Lei, Brother Xiong, Brother Chong, you're finally here. We're ready. Which building should we start collecting the protection grain from? The residents of buildings A, D, F, and G have already prepared the protection grain. Brother Lei, Brother Xiong, and Brother Chong are free to collect it at any time."
Jia Tielei was very satisfied with the attitude of the four of them, "You four are great, keep up the good work!" Then he assigned a few people to go to the ADFG unit building to collect protection food.
"Which building does the villain on the 19th floor live in? Let's take care of the 19th floor now!"
When Min Weihuan and other people in the apartment building saw Lei Ge and others coming towards their apartment building with a ferocious look, they were scared and broke out in cold sweats. Their bodies were shaking uncontrollably with nervousness. But when they saw Lu Xingtang and others were as steady as a rock and did not change their expressions, their nervous mood suddenly subsided.
Except for Lu Xingtang, Ji Yanmo and Su Cheng, the three people who knew the situation, no one expected that at this critical moment, one Dongfeng Mengshi after another drove into the community, and even three Dongfeng Mengshi drove directly towards the apartment building where Lu Xingtang was.
Before the car came to a complete stop, the soldiers jumped out and opened fire at the members of the Liuxu Gang. Then someone else got out of the car and shouted with a megaphone:
"To all residents of Sunshine Community, please don't be afraid. We are here to save you! Please also protect the food in your hands and don't give it to any bad people! Also, all residents, please go home and hide immediately. Don't open the door to anyone who asks you to! Next, we will arrest those who are protecting the food and take them away!"
Seeing that the soldiers arrived so timely, Lu Xingtang gave a thumbs up to the government and said, "Everyone can rest assured!" Because of the arrival of the soldiers, the people of Liuxu Gang were frightened and they started to exchange fire soon.
Hearing the gunshots coming from downstairs, Lu Xingtang and the others stood in the corridor and observed with guns in their hands. If the people from the Liuxu Gang rushed up, they would die in their hands.
At worst, the gun in your hand will be confiscated.
Lu Xingtang didn't have a chance to shoot, and the gunfire soon stopped. When he heard the noise below, he knew that the Liuxu Gang was completely wiped out this time.
So the three of them went to the corridor window and looked down. They saw soldiers carrying corpses downstairs, and about ten people were handcuffed.
People who went to other apartment buildings to collect protection food also wore silver bracelets.
The soldiers did not leave immediately. Min Weihuan was called downstairs and asked about the situation of collecting protected grain. Min Weihuan honestly told them everything he knew.
When Min Weihuan returned, he told Lu Xingtang and the others, "Our Sunshine Community will be safe from now on, because it has officially been taken over by the military, with direct management from above! I told them about the four ADFG building managers who betrayed the community and colluded with the robbers to collect the protection food, and they took the four building managers away!"
Sunshine Community has been taken over by the military! This is great, both for her and for everyone in the community!
Later, Lu Xingtang learned that Ouxi Community was also taken over by the military, and they also found a lot of supplies from Ouxi Community. That is to say, Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo had not collected all the supplies from Ouxi Community, and a lot of supplies were also hidden in other apartment buildings.
However, despite the military's investigation, they couldn't find out where the Liuxu Gang's leader and some of his gang members had gone. They searched the entire Ouxi Community but couldn't find them.
Later, they questioned Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo because they had been to Ouxi Community, but Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo insisted that they did not know and had never seen it. They sneaked into Ouxi Community to rescue people, not daring to let anyone discover them.
Later they found the person, fired a gun, and rescued him. All the people imprisoned in the water dungeon were released.
At that time, they did not take away the bodies of the several people guarding the water dungeon, and the military saw them when they took over.
The military only questioned them and didn't do anything to Lu Xingtang and the others because they didn't believe that Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo could hide the Liuxu Gang members hiding in Ouxi Community. There were not just one or two people, but hundreds of them!
After the Sunshine Community was officially taken over by the military, Lu Xingtang began to live a truly miserable life. In addition to practicing with Ji Yanmo every day, he took care of the small animals in the space. Recently, he fell in love with the furry chicks, ducklings, and geese. Since they were hatched, Lu Xingtang loved them so much that he basically stayed in the space to play with them.
Time flew by, and another month had passed since the extreme cold. One day, Lu Xingtang had just finished sparring with Ji Yanmo when Min Weihuan came upstairs and knocked on the door. "Lu Xingtang? Ji Yanmo? Su Cheng? Are you home? I just got a piece of news. I heard the government has researched cold-resistant potatoes. In five days, we can go to our neighborhood committee with our ID cards to get some cold-resistant potatoes and plant them at home!"
Cold-resistant potatoes? Lu Xingtang remembered that the government in his previous life had also developed cold-resistant potatoes, but much later than now.
It was developed in the fifth month of extreme cold, but now it's been developed in just three months. However, the quantity is limited, and this is the first batch, still in the trial stage. It was successful once in the previous life, and it will definitely be successful now.
"Really? That's great! With cold-resistant potatoes, everyone can survive!" Su Cheng happily came out of the house: "But, I have a question, how many cold-resistant potatoes has the government developed? Can we still get them once a week in the future?"
If you can get it every week, it means that a lot of cold-resistant potatoes have been researched.
Min Weihuan said, "These cold-resistant potatoes are not for us to eat. They're for us to plant back home so we can be self-sufficient!"
"Plant? But I don't have any soil or planting pots at home. How can I plant?" Su Cheng frowned and looked at Lu Xingtang: "Shall we go find soil and planting pots tomorrow?"
"Don't wait until tomorrow. Everyone who knows the news has already taken action, and it will be difficult to find planters by then! So, go to the market now!"
So, Lu Xingtang and the others immediately put on cold-resistant clothes, carried their backpacks, packed some supplies and went to the trading market. Min Weihuan followed closely behind, bringing the people from the apartment building and also brought supplies to the trading market, hoping to buy planting pots.
When they arrived at the market, they found stalls everywhere, just like the stalls that lined the streets before. After searching for a while, the three of them finally found a planter in the department store area. Lu Xingtang had planters and flower pots at home, so he exchanged three planters for them. Ji Yanmo exchanged five, and Su Cheng also exchanged five.
They had planting pots but no growing soil. They searched the entire market but couldn't find any, so they decided to dig soil outside.
