Chapter 288 Can you find something for our mom to do?
After the supervisor returned to his post.
All the laborers who were lazy and not working were fined for working hours.
Among them were Ye Honglang and the warehouse manager.
Because of Ye Honglang's attitude, several supervisors determined that Ye Honglang had a tendency to rebel after checking the surveillance footage.
So Ye Honglang was fined double working hours.
If you calculate it this way, Ye Honglang would probably be punished to do hard labor for fifteen days without any pay.
Although during these fifteen days, the old nest will provide Ye Honglang with a bottle of the most basic fortified water to drink.
But Ye Honglang didn't have a little red flag.
In other words, the old nest only allows him to have the most basic high-intensity labor capabilities.
He has no freedom to choose.
It was at this time that Ye Honglang and the warehouse manager discovered that the resource allocation of the old nest had been scientifically calculated.
It wasn't just a sudden decision made by the decision-makers in their old nest.
So it was decided to punish the coolies in this way.
Those seemingly random little red flags, enhanced water, etc., have also been scientifically calculated.
It not only made it easy for the coolies to get the little red flags, but also satisfied their expectations of life.
It also prevents survivors from easily storing a large number of small red flags.
Because every two or three days, the nest will release a batch of vacuum-packed plastic vegetables.
A bag weighs about one kilogram.
Or other daily necessities.
Let the coolies with the little red flags exchange them.
The coolies, who had not eaten vegetables for a long time, now had enough food and clothing and met their basic living conditions.
What they think about is, of course, how to improve their appetite.
So a batch of vegetables would be released every two or three days, and it became the place where the coolies in the old nest spent the most red flags.
It is obvious that after they finish their work, they will get three free meals a day.
But many coolies could not resist the desire to eat it orally.
They would rather not eat the free three meals provided by the nest, and spend the little red flags in their hands to buy some vegetables.
The old nest was quite thoughtful and gave them vegetable salad.
Although these vegetable salads are well sealed expired products.
But the coolies quite like to buy these vegetable salads.
In particular, the variety of vegetables introduced by Laochao is different every once in a while.
Before you get tired of the previous variety of vegetables, new varieties of vegetables are already released.
It’s no wonder that the laborers can’t keep the little red flags they earned through hard work and overtime.
Ye Honglang, with a hapless look on his face, held the hoe in his hand and dug the ground desperately with the warehouse manager.
People on the ground were walking back and forth in groups of three or four, holding today's freshly made plastic-wrapped rice balls in their hands.
Ye Honglang, who was fined twice as much working hours, almost went crazy.
"Have you noticed that this Little Red Flag trading system that this old nest has set up is actually our points system?"
The only difference is that the points issued by management are divided into two types: points cards and electronic points.
That is presented in numbers.
But what Shi Yuebai distributed were small red flags, one small red flag after another.
This small red flag is made of stone cut into a thin, small triangular red flag.
The size of a small red flag is probably only the size of a coin before the wasteland.
The surface of these small red flags is painted red.
No coolie could make a small red flag of this size and uniform thickness.
It is said that all these small red flags were made by a young man named Pang Ziyuan.
Regarding this Pang Ziyuan, he is another legend in the old nest.
Ye Honglang was in no mood to ask Pang Ziyuan so much, he just muttered to the warehouse manager,
"They all say this is a pure land, but in fact, it is harvesting our labor."
The warehouse manager rolled his eyes at Ye Honglang while working.
"Then what can you do?"
"The little red flag system here at least allows coolies to exchange for things. The point system our class has come up with is making it increasingly difficult to exchange for things."
The biggest difference is the Little Red Flag system, and the things that are exchanged are not necessities for survival.
It is an improvement in the quality of life.
The coolies here can endure their craving for vegetables.
Then they don't have to hold the little red flag to exchange for vegetables.
They can hoard the small red flags in their hands and exchange them for other daily necessities or for enhanced water.
You may even never exchange anything and just hoard the small red flags.
Then you can survive.
Because in Shi Yuebai's place, as long as there are people working, the nest will provide the laborers with three meals a day.
But in a big city, can the survivors hoard the points they have?
There is simply no room for storage.
All the points earned by the survivors were used to exchange for water, food, or daily necessities they needed.
All the survivors lived in despair.
Apart from Shi Yuebai's lair, the warehouse keeper had never seen such vigorous vitality in the survivors anywhere else.
Ye Honglang stopped talking.
He lowered his head and worked hard.
In fact, he understood everything the warehouse manager said.
Just because I was fined for working such long hours.
Ye Honglang was feeling unhappy, so he just complained on purpose.
Seeing this, the warehouse next door patted Ye Honglang on the shoulder.
He and Ye Honglang no longer had the same tit-for-tat confrontation as before, and a revolutionary friendship actually developed between them.
"You need to change your twisted personality. Now that you're here, just accept the reality. I don't plan to go back."
"If you don't change your attitude, some of the overseers will judge you as having traitorous tendencies."
A moment of silence followed.
The warehouse manager and Ye Honglang worked hard together, and they never talked about these trivial matters again.
The rest of the people in the nest went about their own business.
Leaving behind Shi Mu, she always stayed by Shi Yuebai's side with concern.
She got a palm-leaf fan from somewhere, sat beside Shi Yuebai, and fanned him.
"Be good, Yuebai baby. Have a good sleep. Mommy will shoo away mosquitoes for you."
Shi Yuebai, who was floating on the flesh, really couldn't stand such sticky maternal love.
She flew directly into the strange yard.
Shi Yi was sitting at a table in the strange yard, looking at the blueprint of the third wall.
Now the third wall has completely blocked the front part of the nest.
What we are repairing now are the left and right wings of the old nest.
Shi Yuebai floated to Shi Yi's side and took a look at the drawing above.
"Can you find something for Mom to do?"
Shi Yuebai's tone was very bad.
"She's always next to me, and I can't stand it."
Shi Yi raised his head, and his thin face was imprinted with the red light emitted by Shi Yuebai's body.
"I don't dare to care about her now."
He sighed and spread his hands to show that he had no way to help his mother.
As the two siblings were talking, Yi Zhe, who had left, came back and stood at the gate of the strange yard.
"Shiyi, come out. I have something to tell you."
