Actually, he wanted to agree to it right away, but considering that his family and clan had lived in the western region for generations, he figured no one would be willing to move there directly.
But you can't truly appreciate the impact of something you haven't seen it.
As far as the eye could see, there were fields everywhere, and the crops in the fields were lush and green. He was very impressed. This was something that was rarely seen in his area. How could he not want to stay?
However, he was out on an inspection trip and needed to go back.
The base leaders didn't ask him to make a decision on the spot, but instead told him to go back and discuss it with his people, and thoughtfully prepared food for his return.
In this apocalyptic world, people have been living in places where they have to fight for food and water.
It was all fighting, and now that he'd come out to find another way out, he was being treated with such kindness. The leader's son, a middle-aged man, almost cried on the spot, but he held back. After saying goodbye to the local leaders, the leader's son, along with a few entourage, headed to another city.
Before he left, the base leaders told him that there are now bases in almost every city, and their wireless network has been basically restored, so they can communicate with each other.
This greatly shocked the leader's son, who felt as if he were in a desert, while they were in the city center.
Now that we have the internet, it means they can watch short videos, watch all kinds of good TV series and movies, and chat with each other online using their phones!
On the other hand, they have nothing, so how can they feel at ease?
So the leader's son immediately decided to take his entourage to the next city to see it again and compare it with the other one, so that they could make a more informed decision about whether or not they should move there.
The leader's son, along with several others, traveled for more than half a month before arriving at another populated area. This area felt a bit smaller, but the surrounding fields were covered with lush green crops.
They also found some wood, and poultry kept inside the house! Chickens, ducks, geese!
The group circled the base and found that people were already watching them, each holding a long knife.
To avoid any misunderstanding, the leader's son and his companions quickly moved to a distance of about ten meters from the guards and said, "Please don't misunderstand, we're from another base and would like to visit your base. Could you please inform your leader?"
The leader's son spoke with great emotion and reason.
After the guards and others nodded, they went back to report. Only after the base leadership gave their approval were they allowed to enter.
Once inside, a completely different scene unfolds: neat rows of houses stand on the flat ground.
Each household is a neat wooden house, and the flat ground looks clean, so it must be cleaned every day.
They walked around the base compound before reaching the leader's office, and along the way they saw many people carrying long knives patrolling the base.
Each of them was very burly, with serious expressions, and looked like they were not to be trifled with.
The leadership of this base was basically the same as the one they had visited before. They also invited the leader's son and his family to come and live with them at their base, and offered to provide them with land and houses so that they could settle down and live there with peace of mind.
After touring the base, the leader's son discovered that the base even kept pigs and cows!
This is exactly what they need, but pigs and cows are extremely precious these days, and anyone with a modicum of common sense knows they're unlikely to give them to them!
When the leader's son offered to exchange local precious medicinal herbs for them, the base leaders flatly refused, saying they didn't need them. What mattered most to them now was food and meat. They added that if the people wanted these things, they could come and stay; they were very welcome.
The leader's son had no choice but to leave in disgrace with a few men.
Instead of going to the next city, the group headed straight back home. After several months, they finally returned to the region where their families lived.
After the leader's son told the leader what had happened, the leader pondered for a long time before walking to the junction with another base and shouting, "Geshe! Come out!"
Geshe Horan is another leader's name.
"...Drink! You old geezer! What kind of crazy idea are you hatching now!"
After exchanging a few insults with each other, the two old men finally revealed their purpose.
"What? Are you sure? You're not just trying to trick us into leaving so you can take over our territory, are you?!"
"Do you think everyone is like you!"
"snort!"
"Go back and discuss it with your tribe yourself!"
After saying that, Jiuka left angrily.
After all, we've spent so much time together, and there's definitely some affection between us. So after receiving this news, I thought about it for a long time before deciding to come and say hello. Whether they leave or not is their business, and I've already said it.
Every base had elderly, weak, women and children, and he wanted to do his part to help people survive.
After convening a general meeting of the entire clan, the old man resolutely decided to lead the whole clan to relocate!
In any case, even if they don't integrate into other bases, they can choose to set up camp on a field that no one cultivates.
From any perspective, this place is no longer suitable for human habitation, and they must leave immediately.
It's quite difficult for a whole family, young and old, to travel for several months, but fortunately they have their own car.
The group had only one large tractor and three three-wheeled electric vehicles.
When the end times came, they hid the car underground and covered it with soil, so it was well preserved and has only recently seen the light of day again.
When it was buried underground, a lot of diesel fuel was buried in it, and the battery of the electric vehicle was also wrapped in tin foil and preserved intact.
Before the apocalypse, many households in their western region already had solar power generation devices.
Now that the electric scooter has been taken out and repaired by a specialist, it's perfectly usable again!
Oil and electricity can solve the problem. Everyone puts everything usable in the car, prioritizing the elderly and children to ride in the car, while everyone else walks on the ground.
Because there are cars, drivers will take the main roads to the same destination first, while pedestrians will take detours along side paths, valleys, or riverbanks, which will greatly reduce the time spent.
The group split into two teams. The tractor team was led by the old leader and his entourage who had gone out earlier, while the other team consisted of the old leader's son leading the able-bodied young men and teenagers.
On the other hand, he himself had already walked this path before, so it was perfectly correct to let him lead his people to walk it again.
