Chapter 88 I'll help you, Iron Wireworm
On the afternoon of April 13, the government took action to control the locusts. It was very generous, using the siphon principle to suck the locusts into a machine and then crush them into pieces.
Because the government had taken action to control the locusts, by the next morning, either some had been sucked away and crushed, or some had sensed danger and fled. The sucked away locusts had already left the imperial capital, and the sky was no longer dark, with the sun shining brightly again.
Even without the locust invasion, people's illnesses did not improve, as cholera broke out and protozoan viruses followed closely behind. The government once again issued a notice to recruit corpse collectors, disinfection personnel, and personnel to make disinfectant and pesticides.
Doctors and nurses are especially important. As long as they have a little medical knowledge, they should report to the hospital immediately. Previously, they were given 30 kilograms of food per month, but now it has been increased to 40 kilograms of food per month. They are provided with accommodation and are protected by soldiers.
Such attractive conditions attracted many people to the hospital. However, the poor doctors and nurses didn't improve the situation because there were no medicine! The hospital was in chaos! Desperate for their lives, patients began beating doctors, smashing the hospital, and even attacking the soldiers who came to protect it.
At this critical moment, GJ took action.
First, special police were sent to guard the hospital, and then people were sent out to search for medicine all over the country, whether it was Chinese medicine, Western medicine, or herbal medicine, even seeds were not spared.
Unfortunately, natural disasters aren't confined to the capital! They're global, and medicine and supplies are equally hard to come by. Finally, we're turning our attention to the wealthy. If they're willing to donate medicine or medical equipment, they can receive government support, allowing them to seek solutions to future problems. Guaranteed, they'll be solved!
With the participation of rich people, there are more medicines.
Lu Xingtang thought of the medical equipment she'd collected from Ouxi Community in her space and decided to donate it to GJ. It was the only thing she could do, but how? She didn't dare resort to the old methods; GJ would surely notice. She also couldn't travel too far; it wouldn't be easy to get the equipment to the hospital where doctors could save lives.
Oh, if I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have collected the medical equipment!
Lu Xingtang thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution, so he went to Ji Yanmo and asked Ji Yanmo to help him think of a solution.
When Ji Yanmo heard Lu Xingtang say that he wanted to donate the medical equipment collected from Ouxi Community to GJ, he was stunned. "Why donate? We don't know when the apocalypse will end, and we don't know what natural disasters or man-made disasters will happen in the future. I can still use it if I keep it for myself!"
Lu Xingtang was silent for a moment. "With a country, there is no home! With the intervention of the government, we can get rid of the virus and insect plague sooner. Otherwise, there may be a plague next, and then it will be out of control! I can't go to the hospital to sacrifice myself, but I can give them these supplies."
The herbs you stockpiled before can also be given to GJ. With GJ's protection, they can live better!
Ji Yanmo was silent. Lu Xingtang seemed ruthless and ungrateful, but he was kind at heart. As long as it didn't affect her interests, it was fine!
"Aren't you worried that your donation will save many lives and that they will compete with you for supplies?!"
"I have! Don't worry!" Her space is a renewable space. As long as she is diligent enough, she will not be afraid of running out of supplies.
The herbs were donated to GJ. She also had a lot of herbal seeds. The area of black soil was so large that she developed a piece of it specifically for growing herbs. Soon she became a wealthy woman again.
A smile flashed across Ji Yanmo's dark eyes: "In that case, I'll donate for you, and it will be done without anyone noticing! No one will find out!"
Lu Xingtang was astonished: "Unbeknownst to anyone? I'm not well educated, don't lie to me!"
"I don't know any medical skills. I've also collected a lot of medical equipment and Chinese herbal medicines, but I don't know how to use them. Let's donate them to GJ together." After a pause, he looked at Lu Xingtang: "As you said, there is a country before there is a home! As long as the country is safe, we have hope!"
He has no shortage of survival supplies, and these supplies will take up some space if left in the space.
So, Lu Xingtang went to Ji Yanmo's house, drew the curtains, and took out the medical equipment. She took one and Ji Yanmo took one. At the same time, she was also recording the quantity of supplies donated by Lu Xingtang, and sorting out the supplies in her own space for Lu Xingtang to see.
Lu Xingtang didn't really want to watch, it was better to stay out of other people's business: "I know you're very capable, but you still have to pay attention to safety and protect your secrets!" After a pause, he added: "Since you helped me, I'm reminding you!"
Ji Yanmo nodded with a smile, took out the protective suit from the space and put it on. Lu Xingtang sprayed disinfectant on him, which was not the one he made himself. The one he made himself was too toxic and could easily burn the protective suit.
With Lu Xingtang's help, he carried the assault boat downstairs, "I'll be back soon!"
An hour after Ji Yanmo left, Min Weihuan found Lu Xingtang. "When the people from our building were out selling disinfectant and insecticide for you, they found a family with saltpeter, so they exchanged them for saltpeter. The amount wasn't much, but it was enough!"
Lu Xingtang knew that selling disinfectant and pesticides during a period of extreme heat, when viruses and bacteria were rampant, was dangerous and hard work. "I've given you all this saltpeter. You can use it as you wish!"
Min Weihuan's eyes lit up: "Really?" He was a little unconvinced.
"I have saltpeter at home!" He paused and said, "A little less than this, but enough for me!"
This also gave me a reason to avoid being questioned about the source of my ice cubes when I ate them in the future. It also saved me some trouble.
"Thank you! Thank you!" Min Weihuan thanked him repeatedly: "I thank you on behalf of everyone in the entire apartment building!"
But the joy lasted only an hour before something bad happened. There were three people in their unit building who had suffered from heatstroke before. They had good physical conditions at the time and had survived by drinking anti-heat medicine. But now they were in trouble. They suddenly had abdominal pain and vomited, and vomited out all the food they had eaten yesterday.
Min Weihuan was so frightened when he saw that there were actually very long and thin worms in his vomit that he covered his stomach and his face turned pale. "What did you eat?"
"Building Manager, we only had a small bowl of porridge yesterday, but it wasn't enough to fill us up, so we boiled a lot of water. Worried about the possibility of insect eggs and bacteria, we boiled more water twice and drank two glasses of water to fill our stomachs! Seriously, we didn't eat or drink anything random. We did everything according to your instructions!"
Min Weihuan immediately went to find Lu Xingtang. The red, slender worm made him feel very uneasy, and he always felt that something was going to happen.
After hearing this, Lu Xingtang understood that the red, slender worm was none other than a nematode!
As for what kind of nematode it is, you will know it only after you see it.
When Lu Xingtang saw the nematodes wriggling in the vomit, he felt uncomfortable in his stomach and wanted to vomit. He frowned and observed, and found that the nematodes were actually iron nematodes.
