Chapter 40 People in the neighborhood also want to farm.



Shen Zhou saw that Qiao An'an was unwilling to teach him planting, but he did not force her.

If you go back three generations, who wasn't a farmer?

If all else fails, just figure it out yourself.

Shen Zhou got into the driver's seat and used the walkie-talkie to direct the car behind him to change direction and drive towards the entrance of the residential area. There were too many zombies in front of the car, so they could only open the car window a crack and use the sticks in their hands to knock on the zombies in front of the car.

Upon seeing this, the zombies all lunged towards the car window.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shen Zhou stepped on the gas and rushed to the entrance of the community. He turned the pickup truck sideways and closely followed the same pickup truck that had been parked at the entrance of the community. The two cars behind him also followed Shen Zhou's example and closely followed his car, which was quite stable.

This way, the zombies can only block the outside of the outermost car.

Fortunately, JUN's pickup truck was of excellent quality, and no matter how much the zombies pounded on it, they couldn't budge it an inch; at most, they only left some scratches on the paint.

After parking the car, the people in the vehicle opened the windows of both pickup trucks inside, and opened the window on the inside of the outer truck. Then, they used the windows to transport the supplies into the community little by little.

After delivering the supplies, the people in the car climbed back into the residential area through the car window.

People in the neighborhood noticed that when they went there, there were five people, but when they came back, Shen Zhou brought more people back. This time, it seemed to be a family of four: an elderly woman in her sixties, a couple in their thirties, and their six-month-old child.

Shen Zhou explained, "On our way back, we passed a gas station and thought we could fill up with gas. We couldn't find any gas, but we found a family of four. Their car was out of gas and they had almost run out of food. They had been stuck at the gas station for several days, so we brought them back."

They brought back a lot of things from the warehouse supermarket this time.

No one had any objections.

Originally, there were only twelve people in this community, including Li Nana and her group. Later, every time Shen Zhou went out to search for supplies, he would bring back some survivors. Now there are nearly fifty survivors in the community.

On the way back, Shen Zhou had thought about the issue of survival. They might take in more people in the future, and relying solely on scavenging for supplies was not a long-term solution. Just then, they saw a lot of vegetable seeds in the flower section of the warehouse supermarket, so they thought of imitating the small courtyard across the street and starting to grow them. He told everyone about this idea.

Young people don't know how to farm.

The older folks raised a different opinion: "Currently, the only water we drink is bottled water that we find online, or rainwater collected in buckets and bathtubs on the roof. This is barely enough for our daily drinking, let alone bathing. Where would we get extra water to irrigate our vegetable garden?"

Shen Zhou replied, "The underground parking lot of Building 3 has no property management. There were several rainy days recently, and the water was waist-deep. In addition, the sixth and fifth floors of Building 3 were destroyed, and the entire building is cracked. I plan to gather everyone tomorrow to demolish Building 3. The bricks and discarded building materials will be used to reinforce the surrounding walls. The first floor slab will be removed and used directly as a water storage tank. That way, we won't have to worry about not having water to irrigate the vegetable garden."

Everyone thought the plan was feasible.

We've been searching for supplies all day, so Chenzhou told everyone to eat and get some rest so we can be ready to tackle Building 3 tomorrow.

The food is still kept by Li Nana, and she still distributes the meals for everyone, but they no longer live together.

Fortunately, the neighborhood is currently empty, making it very easy to find a place to stay.

After dinner, Li Nana warmly found a room on the fifth floor for the family of four: "My name is Li Nana, everyone calls me Nana. By the way, how should I address you?"

The oldest woman in the family of four smiled and said to Li Nana, "My name is Wu Huifang, this is my son Song Chi, my daughter-in-law Song Wei, and my grandson Song Xing."

A complete family of four.

Li Nana was a little envious, as she was now all alone at home: "Okay, Aunt Wu, you all rest first. I'll be upstairs. Just call me if you need anything."

After seeing Li Nana off.

Wu Huifang's smile vanished instantly. She slammed the door shut and said fiercely, "Did you see that? That bitch is still alive! Her daughter is so plump and round! What good is a little brat that eats so well? If only we had all this stuff for Xingxing!!!"

Holding Song Xing, who was crying like a cat from hunger due to insufficient breast milk, Song Wei's face was also filled with hatred: "If that bitch hadn't extorted 500,000 from us, we wouldn't be in such a miserable state!!!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were working together, seemingly wanting to tear Qiao An'an apart.

Song Chi, standing nearby, couldn't help but speak up: "Money is useless in the apocalypse. She gained an advantage by returning to her hometown..."

Wu Huifang used to cherish her son Song Chi the most.

Her son went from the countryside to the city to study and even became a teacher at a university in a big city, which gave her a lot of face.

But now it's the end of the world.

Her son, who had never done farm work and was delicate and even injured his manhood, was utterly useless. Now, Wu Huifang only had eyes for her eldest grandson. She interrupted her son, saying, "Without the 500,000 yuan we gave her, would that dilapidated house in her hometown even be habitable? Could it have kept her and that girl so well-fed and slick?!"

Song Wei gritted her teeth and agreed, "That courtyard was built with our family's money, so it should belong to us!!!"

Song Chi didn't want to talk to his mother and sister.

He got up and went to the balcony to calm down. By the moonlight, he turned his gaze to the small courtyard across the street from the residential area.

Song Chi and Qiao An'an were college classmates.
