Chapter 280 They come out to work at this time every day
The little mute raised his hands and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
What is this piece of food in front of me? Is it vegetables?
Or a mutant plant?
After living in the wasteland for so many years, the little mute hasn't seen green, fresh plants for a long time.
Even mutated plants!
When the whole nation was fighting against the mutated plants.
The little mute witnessed with his own eyes how crazy the survivors were.
This has almost reached the point where the sight of green will cause burning.
Nowadays, even laboratories with the conditions for planting crops only dare to grow crops on a small scale in a sterile laboratory.
Once any abnormality is discovered in the crops, all previous efforts in planting and research will be destroyed.
The little vegetable mute here was a little scared and hid behind Shi Yuebai.
She thought the vegetables were growing abnormally.
Shi Yuebai, who was walking in front, looked back impatiently at the little mute.
"Do you think that if these vegetables get out of control, all these people will be fine?"
Apparently, there are now nearly 1,000 people living in her lair.
They were all taken from Yang Wenyao and the little widow with her one-time teleportation talisman, and tied up from various places.
These people live well here.
In fact, it was to be able to redeem points for a small bag of vacuum-packed vegetables.
They worked overtime and did hard labor.
These people are fine.
That proves that the vegetables grown by Shi Yuebai have not gotten out of control to the point where they can harm people.
The little mute made a few gestures to Shi Yuebai.
Shi Yuebai didn't understand, "Either speak up or hold it in."
"I can't understand your sign language."
The reason I could understand the little mute's gestures before was because my mother's worry about her son was beyond words.
Even if she didn't say anything.
Just by standing in front of Shi Yuebai, Shi Yuebai knew what she wanted to express.
She just wanted to see her son and was very worried about him.
The light in the little mute's eyes went out.
She lowered her hand.
He lowered his head and continued to follow Shi Yuebai in silence.
Passing by the green vegetable field.
The little mute still trembled unconsciously.
But when she saw Shi Yuebai walking in front of her very confidently, she followed behind Shi Yuebai tremblingly.
There were a few elderly people bending over in the vegetable garden, tending to the vegetables that were growing wildly.
These vegetables have to be picked every day.
Otherwise it will grow into a mess.
In a vegetable garden, even the paths you walk on are covered with vegetables.
There is actually enough space inside the third wall for growing vegetables.
However, these vegetables can squeeze out a large enough area of land, making it difficult to pass through.
Especially since the rice started growing, there are golden ears of wheat everywhere.
It will grow a branch in a few days.
With rice, people in the old nest can eat rice.
Therefore, these ears of wheat will continue to compete with other vegetables for territory.
Moreover, a thin ear of wheat grows so long that it can fit into any gap.
If they are not cleaned up, the wheat ears will be stuck into the vegetable field and have to be cut one by one by hand.
On this, Shi Yuebai wasted a lot of manpower.
It won’t work if we don’t send people to clean it up.
In addition, the picked vegetables and cut rice stalks will not grow again.
But the vegetables need to be sealed.
The rice ears and rice stalks need to be separated, and the rice needs to be dried. There is no sun now, so this step cannot be done, so the rice can only be stored first.
Wait until the snow stops and there is a large area of sunshine, then drag it out to dry.
The harvested rice and vegetables must be sent to the same box for storage in a timely manner.
Otherwise, in places with little spiritual energy, no matter how well the vegetables and rice grow, they will slowly rot and gradually increase their radiation exposure.
Of course, the follow-up work is not the responsibility of the elderly who take care of the vegetables and rice.
They also don’t know where the packaged vegetables will be stored in the end.
They just know they are busy as hell.
There is endless farm work to do every day.
Every day.
The little mute stared blankly at the scene.
Her legs felt weak and she was unable to walk.
There was a sound of children's laughter coming from the front.
The little mute looked over.
There was no light in the black sky.
But outside the second wall, a large searchlight was erected.
The wheat ears in front of it were illuminated as if it were daytime.
A group of silly children, some of whom are disabled, some have clumsy hands and feet, and some are autistic.
But they were all dressed cleanly and warmly, and their faces and hands were washed white.
Each child was holding a basket in his hand.
They were picking rice ears in the rice fields.
The little mute rubbed his eyes again.
Was she seeing this right?
The laughter and joy in front of us, is this really the kind of scene that should be seen in the wasteland?
The children, drooling and moving sluggishly and stiffly, picked up the rice grains on the ground one by one with their clumsy fingers.
Is this really not her hallucination?
Shi Yuebai stood at the other side of the rice field and asked the little mute behind him,
"I don't remember what your son looks like. Find him yourself."
She has been hoarding more and more children lately.
The original inflatable classroom could no longer accommodate so many children.
So there was no other way, Shi Yuebai could only ask Pang Zhenggong to clear out the shopping mall downstairs.
Let those children go to the underground mall to attend classes, stay and eat.
It just so happens that the library is also located in the underground mall.
The underground mall is also connected to the underground commercial street, where there is a bathhouse.
It is also convenient for children to go to the bathhouse to wash up every day.
"They come out to work at this time every day."
Shi Yuebai said coldly,
"I don't have the extra manpower and resources to raise so many children. When rice ears fall to the ground, they need a lot of people to pick them up."
"So this is one of the jobs for the children. Some of them will go to the front lines to collect waste."
"If you don't find your child here, you'll have to go to the front lines to find him."
However, the children who were selected to go to the front line were all those with relatively high IQs like Shi Yaoyao.
They would set aside several hours every day to receive Shi Yi's combat training.
This way, you can go to the front line to scavenge and also have the ability to protect yourself.
By the way, get in touch with the mercenaries to lay a psychological foundation for future battles against mutant beasts.
Yes, whether it is Shi Yuebai, Shi Yi or Yi Zhe.
Everyone thinks this is the trend of the future.
Once the impact of radiation on human intelligence and physical condition is resolved, the survivors will have to stand up and compete with mutant beasts for survival resources.
We are not cultivating the fighting spirit in these children now.
Will they have to rely on Shi Yuebai for the rest of their lives and stay curled up in the protective formation when they grow up?
Sorry, Shi Yuebai is not that kind-hearted.
Wait until there are no more projects to do in her old nest.
She wants to drive away all those who eat for free!
