#74 - Chapter 74 New Material Statistics

The next day.

The rain that had fallen all day yesterday began to weaken today.

There were still some dark clouds in the sky, but the rain had mostly stopped, with only occasional light drizzles.

After yesterday's rain, the Green Source Base was filled with a vibrant, thriving atmosphere.

Inside the greenhouses, some of the roofs were opened during yesterday's rain, and the fruits and vegetables, washed by the rain, produced even more fresh fruits and new buds.

It was another day of abundant harvest for vegetables and fruits.

Morning.

The base personnel had already gotten up early, eaten breakfast, and started their daily work.

The work of building the walls continued with a group of people, and there was no need for so many people in other places for the time being, as most of the buildings had already taken initial shape.

Other aspects, such as the base's power generation and water supply, had entered a stable period, no longer requiring people to monitor them 24 hours a day, just regular inspections.

Today was the first day since the apocalypse that the combat team did not go out on a mission to search for supplies.

After working hard for more than half a month, Qin Jin finally gave them a day off.

Allowing them to enjoy a peaceful time within the base.

In response, many combat team members happily high-fived each other in celebration.

Many people had gotten drunk last night and were carried back to their dormitories by their teammates while intoxicated.

It had been a long time since they had felt so relaxed and comfortable, a relaxation of both body and mind.

Today, they could stay in their dormitories or other places in the base to rest or relax.

When the base was built, it was equipped with many places such as billiard rooms, screening rooms, and libraries.

There was even a computer room, with many classic 3D masterpieces installed on the computers.

The base could bear this amount of electricity consumption.

Qin Jin, the leader, did not rest.

Early in the morning, he came to his rooftop office.

At this time, he was sitting in his chair, staring at the list of forms submitted by several managers next to him.

The people in front of him included Qin's father, Qin's mother, and his cousin Luo Dandan.

Before he left the base, he had arranged for them to compile the supplies recently collected by the combat team outside, he wanted to know the latest supply situation of the entire base.

Don't think this task is easy, it's actually too difficult.

Because the things collected from outside were varied and there were too many kinds, they could only merge and count many similar things.

Even so, it took the people in charge a lot of time.

Qin Jin looked at the list in his hand, glanced roughly at the subdivided items, and finally turned to the final total statistics, which roughly listed:

Newly added 273 tons of staple food, including mainstream grains such as rice, wheat, and flour.

Other foods such as packaged instant noodles, biscuits, snacks, as well as other canned foods, dried meat and other foods that are resistant to storage, the newly added total weight is about 62 tons. (Looted countless supermarkets and small shops)

Because there are too many types, the total weight is simply counted here.

There are also many beverages, with a wide variety, totaling hundreds of tons.

There are two hundred and thirty-seven firearms, including pistols, machine guns, shotguns, sniper rifles, etc. (Basically collected in the early stage, and not many could be found later.)

There are more than 67,000 rounds of various types of bullets left.

Seeing this, Qin Jin frowned.

He was not surprised by the increase in food and other foods. It was normal to have these numbers after clearing out several grain and oil shops and supermarkets.

But he had some questions about the weapons.

"Dad, Sister Dandan, why are the bullets being used up so quickly? I remember the combat team brought back more than 120,000 rounds before?"

He directly asked his father and cousin who were in charge of weapons.

Luo Dandan, sitting on the sofa next to him, wearing a simple sweater and holding her shoulders, said to him unhappily:

"Isn't it all because of you! Didn't you arrange for the combat team to do shooting training some time ago? Each of them consumed at least more than 300 rounds of bullets, which cost more than 10,000 rounds!"

"Then you complained that the defense team's combat effectiveness was not enough, and you asked them to consume nearly a hundred rounds of bullets each to shoot the zombies outside, saying it was to improve their proficiency, these add up to nearly 20,000 rounds!"

"Don't forget that every time your combat team goes out, you said it yourself, in order to reduce casualties, you must try to ensure personal safety if possible, so they didn't save you any, and often go out with hundreds or thousands of rounds!"

Looking at his cousin, who looked like a miser and was sulking beside him, Qin Jin suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

He remembered it.

He did tell his father and cousin about this.

At that time, he thought that both the combat team and the defense team needed to develop their marksmanship, so he ordered them to train hard and use the zombies outside for target practice when they went out or defended.

No wonder he felt that the combat team's marksmanship was good when he went out a few days ago!

It turned out that he ordered them to be fed out.

Since he went out with the combat team for a few days in the early stage, he went to deal with the base's affairs later and did not follow the combat team anymore, only knowing that they were still performing tasks.

I didn't expect the consumption of bullets to be so terrifying!

Damn!

Fortunately, I found out earlier, otherwise it would be troublesome if the bullets were consumed to the warning line.

"My fault, I didn't expect them to consume so much. In the future, if you see that the consumption speed of a certain material is too fast, you can directly ask me. I will talk to their squad leaders later to pay attention to consumption, anyway, the marksmanship has also been trained."

Qin Jin said to his cousin a little awkwardly.

Since the team members have already developed good marksmanship, let's start to restrain ourselves a little.

We should still use knives or crossbows when we can, don't get used to shooting guns, and don't know what to do when there are no bullets.

Next, he continued to check the list.

Fuel, there are more than 2,700 tons of various types!

This is the result of draining all the large and small gas stations around the base, including the fuel tanks of some large vehicles.

Then there are some building materials.

Cement, sand, steel, metal parts, plastics, coal, chemicals, etc., all kinds of things are dozens or hundreds of tons, I don't know how many factories the team members moved.

Some odds and ends, gold, silver, rare metals, gunpowder, etc., dozens of kilograms, hundreds of kilograms, tons.

There are also other daily necessities, which are transported back in carloads and have filled several warehouses.

Qin Jin looked at the list.

I feel really sorry for those team members who went out to find supplies.

The list has everything.

They should have moved back everything that was easy to find around the base.

Luo Dandan looked at her cousin in front of her, the man who was just her follower when he was a child.

At this time, he has become a leader who controls the life and death of many people, and his heart is also difficult to calm down.

She never thought that the good world would become like this, and then be protected by the base established by her cousin.

No one should have thought of it.

She stared at her cousin who was still looking at the list, thought for a while, and still said what she wanted to say:

"A Jin, see when you can arrange two more people to help us, there are too many supplies recently, don't think we are just keeping accounts, sometimes we have to direct and move those things that are not easy for people to see."

"See if you can arrange two more trustworthy people to help, Uncle has been exhausted recently."

Qin Jin heard the words, raised his head and glanced at his cousin and father.

He did see the hidden fatigue in his cousin and father, which was usually deeply hidden and not discovered by him.

Yes, countless supplies are returned every day, and it is not just a matter of counting them.

We also have to classify, transport and store them, and consider safety. Relying on only the two of them, even if someone occasionally assists, it is indeed too tiring.

He couldn't help but feel a little self-blame. Recently, he only thought about the general direction of the base and forgot to care about his relatives.

"Dad, Mom, Sister, I'm sorry, I will find someone to help you share the burden as soon as possible, I neglected it."

Qin Jin stood up and bowed to the relatives in front of him.

"Oh, where, everyone is tired at this time. It's good that we can eat and help. Compared to you going out to fight, it doesn't matter if we are a little tired at the base, it's safe."

Qin's father waved his hand with a smile.

He is indeed a little tired, but there is a force in his heart that is bursting out.

He wants to shine and heat.

Qin Jin no longer pretended with his relatives, kept this matter in his heart, and continued to check the general situation of the newly found supplies after the end of the world to understand.

After reading it.

He can only say.

The strength of Green Source Base has greatly improved!
