Chapter 130

The base is busy

After more than three months of heavy rain, the rain finally stopped.

All the survivors cheered and were excited.

Everyone is hoping that life can return to normal and there won't be any more bad weather.

Who doesn't expect so?

Everyone has this thought in their heart, because everyone has had an extremely difficult life over the past three years. Having this thought in your heart is actually the motivation that keeps you going.

Many scavengers saw that the heavy rain had finally stopped and ran out of the base impatiently.

But after running out, they were dumbfounded. They finally realized how lucky they were to live in the base.

Because in the cities outside, all the low-lying areas have been submerged by floods.

The supplies they were looking for were either under the ruins or in the stagnant water.

They were silent and confused.

But many people still go out to look for supplies in the ruins, digging out some steel bars and the like, which is also a source of income and can be exchanged for points to improve their lives.

There are also many smart survivors who dug some soil and took it back to plant their own crops, so they wouldn't starve to death. If there were any surplus crops, they could sell them to the base store to earn some points.

Upon seeing this, the two elders also went out and dug a dozen bags of soil, intending to plant in the living room. They still kept their planting boxes and were reluctant to throw them away.

It can be said that the two old people were obsessed with farming and could not stop.

People in the low-end residential areas saw others coming back from digging, and they also ran out to dig. Some carried basins, some carried small baskets, and some carried iron boxes.

In short, there are many kinds of things used to hold soil.

This also gave many people hope to survive.

Human vitality is the strongest. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, one can survive.

For this reason, base managers also strongly support survivors to grow their own crops.

It means that as long as the vegetables grown are fresh and free of insects, the base store is willing to recycle them, and the seeds in the store are also sold at half price.

Little did they know that digging today would actually save them in the future, because in a while, acid rain would come and there would be no land left to grow crops.

Most of the land has become wasteland.

Those survivors who did not come back from digging the soil were filled with regret.

Everyone was busy planting outside, and Fang Xin was also busy. The crops in her planting area were ripe.

She had to go and harvest. This time, the wheat was not planted here and there, but all the same kind. Fang Xin directly drove the harvester to harvest it.

Then use a thresher to thresh everything.

After removing the grains, they are all ground into powder using a machine and packed into bags.

But the flour she ground was light yellow, which Fang Xin found strange. Shouldn't it be white? She had always eaten white flour.

strangeness.

She didn't understand, so forget it, just put aside the things that you can't figure out.

With the help of machines, the work was done quickly and it was finished in less than two days.

Fang Xin didn't plan to plant immediately because she didn't need to rush to grow anything. The storage space was enough to feed one person for a long time.

No need to be as nervous as before.

You can plant whenever you want, as you wish.

Use farm tools to turn over all the land, turn out all the wheat roots, then shake off the soil and pile it aside.

Fang Xin lit the fire directly. The moment the fire started, Zao Hongma was watching curiously beside him.

Suddenly he was startled by the fire, his mouth was buzzing and he ran away.

After all the flames were burned to ashes, Fang Xin spread the ashes on the ground to improve the soil.

After finishing the work in the planting area, Fang Xin continued to work and slaughtered a batch of livestock in the pasture area.

We can't let it reproduce anymore. If it reproduces any more, we really won't be able to put it down.

Of course, the red horse couldn’t see this. It only knew that the animals were getting fewer and fewer, but it had no idea where they had gone.

In the past, she would take it out and process it in the small villa kitchen where no one could smell it outside. But now the living environment does not allow this and the smell of blood is too strong, so she can only process it in front of the space villa.

The dog looked at it and refused to let it go to the villa. The red horse kept snorting in protest, but it couldn't do anything against the dog, so it lay on the grass and sulked.

He was snorting and chewing grass.

Of course she couldn't kill her red horse. It was now her mount, and Fang Xin often rode it around the dynamic space.

Zaohongma was also willing to carry her around and run around in circles without getting tired of it. It had grown taller now and could open the gate with its mouth. It would come to the villa every day to see if Fang Xin had come in.

Very human-like. Not all animals are human-like, only this one.

If everyone understands human nature, then wouldn't they be unable to do anything?

I can’t even support it.

If a natural disaster happens, she will also release some of the livestock on the ranch.

After all the livestock had been slaughtered, Fang Xin let the dog and the horse come over.

Zaohongma came over and kept using its big head to complain to Fang Xin.

Although she didn't understand it, she could sense the grievance in its tone.

So Fang Xin took out some big apples to coax him.

This guy is also a foodie. He eats everything except meat.

It also eats fruits from the fruit trees in the pasture, but it never complains. It just eats them one by one. It is a sensible horse.

But this guy won’t eat the ones that are ripe and fall to the ground. He is very picky.

I really don’t know if this guy can survive on his own if he is released after the natural disaster.

Suddenly I feel a little worried.

I don’t know how long the horse’s lifespan is, but I think it should be able to live until the day the natural disaster ends.

Have a chance to take it out to see the outside world.

Just thinking about her riding a horse on the road, how cool it would be.

Fang Xin washed all the dirty clothes in the room again, and then took off his work clothes and washed them together.

After washing, hang them on the clothesline in front of the villa to dry.

The space dries up quickly and there is a faint fragrance.

It rained heavily outside before, and the clothes were not dry even after being washed with water.

Fortunately, she has space.

After washing the clothes, Fang Xin finally took a break.

I took another hot shower in the space, cleaned myself up, and then left the space.

She looked in the mirror. Her hair had grown a lot longer now. She had cut it herself several times before, and she couldn't say for sure how good she was at it.

Liu Hai only knows how to cut it straight, like a watermelon rind on the head.

I couldn't see the back at all, and when I looked in the mirror it looked like it was bitten by a dog.

It's really too ugly.

Forget it, she stopped teasing herself and went to find Grandma Li to ask her to help cut her hair.

Fang Xin came to his second elder's house with scissors and other tools.

As expected, Grandma Li was busy stirring her herbs.

"Grandma is busy"

"Wait a moment, I'll go call her."

"No hurry, wait until grandma is done."

"If you don't call her, she will never come out. Let her come out to change her mind and stop locking herself up all day."

Grandma Li looked up and saw her old man. She smiled and said, "I'll be there soon."

"Xinxin is here."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Li immediately stood up, put down what she was holding, stopped studying, and walked out.
