#534 - Chapter 534 Summer enjoyment, the taste of life
What was Li Cai worried about "Qian Jin" doing?
The perspective shifts to Mentang Town.
The headquarters of the Green Source Main Base.
That "Qian Jin" was very rarely not at work dealing with matters today, but instead staying in his own small home.
As for what he was doing?
Ahem.
A bit of a pity.
The situation he was in was a "billion" points different from what Li Cai had imagined.
The leader's residence in the main base.
Qin Jin's three-story building, in one of the bathrooms.
Qin Jin had stripped himself completely naked and was lying in a bathtub filled with water!
That's right!
This guy was actually taking a bath in his own home!
A cold water bath!
Next to the bathtub was a small table with several fruit plates on it, with grapes, passion fruit, cherry tomatoes, pineapple, and so on.
Even more outrageous was a large bowl of ice cream!
Simply excessive!
That's not all!
There were also some small ice cubes floating on the surface of the bathtub, lowering the temperature of the entire tub of bathwater to around 20 degrees Celsius, which was a bit chilly!
"Squeak, squeak, squeak——"
Qin Jin picked up a glass of self-made juice from the table next to him and took a big gulp.
He squinted his eyes, enjoying the cool sensation of the icy sweet water filling his mouth and sliding down his esophagus, causing him to let out a comfortable groan.
"Wow——!"
"So good——burp——"
He was so happy that he couldn't help but hiccup. He put down his cup and picked up a bunch of grapes to eat.
"Pa-ji, pa-ji——!"
Plump fruits entered his mouth one by one, and the bursting fresh pulp exuded the taste of midsummer.
These fruits grown in the base's greenhouses were all excellent varieties from the past. In addition, with the careful cultivation of the base's growers, there was absolutely no need to use pesticides, which is why they had such an ultimate taste.
He didn't go to the office to work today, but chose to give himself a vacation.
Who dared to object?
Stand up!
I, Qin Jin, will punch the shit out of you!
Of course, this was a joke.
Qin Jin just felt that the base's development affairs had entered the right track recently, and the entire base had entered a state of silence. There were no urgent matters that he needed to deal with, so he simply relaxed.
Otherwise, why would he build such a large base?
To make himself a slave to the base?
Sorry.
He wanted to build it to serve himself.
He couldn't do anything about the water shortage outside, but he had made preparations for the people in his own base. As long as it continued to operate normally, the personnel in the entire Green Source area, including the other two external bases far away in Zhushi and Shenzhen, would not have too many problems.
As for the Yangcheng branch?
That was still a bit far away. He would send someone over to take over and officially settle in later. For now, he would leave it alone.
Someone taking the opportunity to cause trouble?
Who doesn't know that the area is occupied by Green Source now?
Are they looking for death?
At this time, Green Source's reputation was well-known throughout the entire Guangnan Province, and it was the evil kind......
So, enjoying one's life is also a part of life.
As for other survivors outside, he couldn't help them.
There are at least tens of millions of survivors alive on the entire Blue Star. Does he have to be responsible for all of them?
Just because he was well prepared?
What a joke.
Did he have to distribute the materials that the base had worked so hard to prepare and hoard, or take in thousands or tens of thousands of people?
The so-called saving the world?
Doesn't exist.
There is no savior in this world at present. Qin Jin doesn't know if there will be in the future, but there is no possibility in the short term.
This is a real world. Without extraordinary beings, no one can end this apocalypse for the time being.
Not to mention foreign countries, there are nearly 2 billion zombies in China alone! (As mentioned in the previous article, the population of Blue Star is 10 billion, China is 2 billion, and 95% of the mutated night humans have mutated. Later, they died successively to 97%-98%. Various disasters continue to strike, and so far there are about 40 million to 50 million survivors left, and they are still decreasing every day)
Even if he used a gun to kill them one by one, he would need at least 2 billion bullets!!
And now the daily production of bullets at the Green Source base is around 100,000, which is the speed that was only reached some time ago. Full power production without stopping for a year can only store about 360 million rounds.
This is still under the condition that production cannot be stopped, materials are sufficient, and equipment does not fail.
And the number of bullets actually used to kill a zombie is impossible to be only one.
Zombies will only fall if they are hit in a vital spot. An average trained team member needs 3-5 bullets to eliminate one, but if someone who has never touched a gun comes over, they may not be able to kill one even after running out of two magazines!
Even if there are other hot weapons such as bombs, you still have to consider how to attract, how to arrange, and other factors.
It's not that easy.
It is impossible to eliminate all the zombies in China with guns in the short term. Perhaps such a super power will appear in the future, but not now.
Back to Qin Jin's side.
Today was his day off. He didn't need to deal with official business, so he naturally returned to his small home to stay in and enjoy life.
Happy water, fruit, game consoles, movies.
Don't stop all these sources of happiness from peacetime!
If even he, the leader, can't have a little privilege after working so hard to build the base, then what's the point?
He immediately arranged for himself to take a break.
"I'll ask Zhao Ling to make me a few servings of taro sago, jelly, ice jelly, and jelly later~~~~"
After lying in the bathtub and playing a few rounds of single-player turn-based games, he was stuck and couldn't get through the game because his skills were too bad, so he threw the game console aside. He remembered to ask Zhao Ling to make some afternoon tea.
He still had a good impression of this woman who was the head of the life department and also his personal secretary.
After all, she served his life comfortably, didn't she?
"Huh?"
"Speaking of which, it seems like it's been a long time since I went to teach the children."
"Why don't I see if I can take some time out of my "busy" schedule to give them another survival lesson one of these days?"
Hmm.
Qin Jin remembered that he was still the survival class teacher at Green Source School. It seemed that he hadn't taught again since the last time he taught the theoretical lesson.
It's time to take some time to go to class again.
He silently made a decision in his heart, and then he took a deep breath and soaked his whole body in the cold clear water of the bathtub.
"Gurgle, gurgle——"
Bubbles rose from the water and burst, as if a giant monster was hidden at the bottom of the sea, stirring up wind and rain and waiting for an opportunity to move.
"Splash——"
He didn't know how long he had been holding his breath in the water, but he estimated that it was more than ten minutes before he returned to the surface and gasped heavily.
"Huff——Huff——Huff——"
Feeling the slight burning sensation in his lungs, he had never felt the world so real.
Life is worth it.
The safe base he rebuilt after being reborn can make him feel comfortable. Isn't this the original intention of building it?
This is the taste of being alive.
