Chapter 671: Driving people away, Li Yu’s thoughts [asking for monthly votes]

This winter was very long, with heavy snowfalls and extremely cold weather lasting for several months.

From November last year to February now, non-staff and cooperative staff have been living in the greenhouse in the First Outer City.

They have no way to go out to find supplies and equipment, and they have no way to redeem their contribution points.

With their previous accumulation of skills, they had already finished eating in January.

There are no idlers in the base, so they are assigned many tasks that they can do in the base.

During heavy snowfalls, I made arrow fletchings, and there were other long-term manual tasks, including clearing snow outside the greenhouse and helping to clear the waterways when water flooded the greenhouse to protect the greenhouse from flooding.

In order to give them something to eat and survive, Li Yu asked his second uncle, eldest uncle, second uncle, He Bing and others to think of various ways to give them some things that needed to be done in the base but took a long time. Do it.

In addition, there are some people who have not done enough and can only use loans like last time and wait until the weather stabilizes to pay them back by doing tasks.

In fact, since the cooperation model was launched, a variety of equipment has been stored in the base, from large boilers to small sewing machines. Some basic industrial equipment is backed up in the Da Zhangshu base.

In the inner city, Li Yu even divided an area to store the equipment and items.

It was built next to the factory building of my second uncle, and it was packed to the brim.

It’s not that they are useless, but some of them are not used yet.

It would take too much time to collect these things just by relying on the people in the city inside and outside the Da Zhangshu Base.

There needs to be people on duty in the base, people need to be planted, and there are all kinds of trivial things that require people.

They could only send a small number of people out to collect supplies.

After turning on the cooperation mode, the least amount of food was used to exchange for the most materials and equipment.

It greatly saves the energy and time of going to the base in Dazhang.

Therefore, after Li Yu protected them for such a long time, he still did not think about driving them away. Instead, he just tried to find a way to get them to do something, and then ensured that they would not starve to death.

Without them, there wouldn't be so much seemingly useless equipment and equipment in the base.

Because Li Yu knew that the floods in a few days would submerge a lot of areas, which would be more serious than the floods that just broke out in the last days.

By that time, a lot of equipment will be flooded. Those things that seemed useless in the past but were in short supply later were not paid attention to by everyone in the early stage. Later, they were flooded and corroded and became useless. Only then did everyone realize the importance of these things. sex.

Li Yu, however, used the cooperation model to get all those things to the base in advance.

For example: printers and modern printing presses.

In the apocalypse, it is estimated that no one would think of hoarding this. When the apocalypse first broke out, Li Yu did not hoard it. He did not buy these with the money on hand.

And after the apocalypse broke out and the cooperative mode was turned on, he began to send out some such tasks crazily.

Those cooperating staff were also happy to see the result. This kind of food could not be eaten, nor used as energy, nor could it be used as a weapon to kill zombies, so they collected it one after another and sent it to the Da Zhangshu base without reservation.

But Li Yu knew that this thing was very important.

Apart from anything else, education will play a very big role in the future.

Some people in the inner city also raised the issue of non-staff personnel and collaborators, but they were all persuaded by Li Yu.

It's not that he has become kinder, but that he knows that without these collaborators and non-staff members, they would not be able to collect such complete equipment and equipment.

Besides, it’s just to feed them, not to feed them.

The amount of food needed to feed them is only one-tenth of what they need to feed them.

Moreover, they also did some things during this time.

From a future perspective, these people will also become potential personnel of the Da Zhangshu Base.

Their lives bring greater and more profound significance to the Da Zhangshu Base than their deaths.

February 16th.

clear.

Outdoor temperature: 6℃.

At the Da Zhangshu Base, with the sunshine in the past few days, the temperature rising, and the improvement of the drainage system, the ground in the base is basically dry.

The food in the greenhouse has its first harvest!

The main crops grown are staple foods: rice, sweet potatoes, and corn.

There are also some transplanted fruit trees, which are not yet fully mature.

The vegetables have been harvested in the past few months, and then dried indoors, and then processed by the second uncle and the others.

The amount of rice is the largest. This harvest includes 80 acres of greenhouses and 40 acres of underground plantations and cave plantations.

The total planting area reaches 120 mu.

Harvesting food always makes people feel happy. This food is the foundation for their future survival.

Li Yu remembered that it would not be long before there would be rain. The rain, combined with the melted snow from the previous months' snowstorms, would form a torrent.

An extremely terrifying torrent.

There were harvesters in the base, so Li Yu asked more than ten or twenty people, including He Chao, Ju Tianrui, and Xiao Jun, to be responsible for the harvesting in the Second Outer City, and also asked all non-staff personnel to help with the harvesting.

Since they were in the Second Outer City, Li Yu specifically asked He Chao to keep an eye on non-staff personnel and prohibit them from approaching residential buildings.

In the First Outer City, Li Yu arranged for Lao Qin, Lao Zhou, Lao Luo, Lao Bi, Lao Yi and others, as well as some non-staff personnel to harvest the crops in the greenhouses in the First Outer City.

In the inner city, it was left to Father Li, Ding Jiu and others, as well as Lao Lu and others to harvest the crops in the inner city.

In the apocalypse, food is very important, and everyone knows this.

Therefore, in order to prevent some non-staff personnel or cooperative personnel from hiding food secretly, the method of searching before entering the greenhouse and searching after leaving was adopted.

Plus there are people from the outer city watching at all times, so there won't be any big problems.

Three harvesters harvest very quickly.

A harvester can harvest 80 acres of land in a day.

Scattered into three places, the harvesting speed is faster.

With everyone working together, all the food was harvested in one morning.

To preserve rice, it must be exposed to the sun, so during harvesting, many people clean out cement aisles and put the rice on them to expose them to the sun.

When Li Yu announced this, he was opposed by his second uncle and uncle.

They believe that food should not be used to seduce a person who does not have enough to eat every day. They believe that harvesting food does not need to be done by non-staff or cooperative personnel, as they can do it themselves.

For the first time, Li Yu was so stubborn that he even gave up his decision-making power as the leader of the Da Zhangshu Base before the two agreed.

It is not unreasonable for Li Yu to act like this. As the temperature rises, some collaborators and non-staff personnel want to go out to do some tasks immediately, but Li Yu knows that if they are let out at this time, they may die.

Floods are not scary. As long as you find a high ground, you can survive.

However, the floods in the apocalypse are not just floods, but also zombies that become more powerful after being stimulated by the water.

Zombies + floods, extremely terrifying!

And if they are all released at this time, they will definitely collect supplies and other things to exchange for them as soon as possible.

Then it is very likely that they will be submerged when the flood comes.

Xincheng is hilly and mountainous.

The Da Zhangshu base itself is located in a relatively high mountainous area, otherwise there would not be a cliff next to it.

The few hundred meters of rural roads coming in from the national highway show an upward slope.

There needs to be a reason for them to stay, and that reason is to let them help harvest crops, dry them, and clear roads.

Moreover, Li Yu made a rule.

Anyone who finds someone hiding and eating the crops during harvest.

Immediately remove them from the Dazhangshu Base and drive them out of the Dazhangshu Base immediately.

It can be expected that some people may be tempted to hide food this time.

Then Li Yu can take this opportunity to screen these people again.

Li Yu always believes in one thing:

In this ever-changing apocalypse, the strongest team, the one that can make it to the end, will never be the one with the largest number of people or the strongest firepower.

It is the most cohesive and united.

People's hearts are unpredictable in the last days, so there are too many things to be vigilant about. Li Yu doesn't have time to see people's hearts one by one.

He uses the simplest and crudest method to screen out like-minded people with his life.

Some people hide themselves deeper, so they can only use some special methods.

Just like this time, let them harvest food.

as expected.

This time, Lao Luo, Ju Tianrui and the others discovered that more than fifty people had secretly hidden grain while harvesting in the greenhouse.

More than fifty people, both men and women, were captured and lined up in two rows.

There was not a single non-staff member, and those arrested were all collaborators.

Standing tremblingly outside the greenhouse of the First Outer City.

They were scared and didn't know what Li Yu would do with them.

Because it was time to harvest crops today, Li Yu had already ordered Aunt Zhou and the others to open up some staple foods for the partners and collaborators to eat.

Everyone is full in the morning, really full!

However, I didn’t expect that someone would dare to reach out for it when they were full.

Li Yu was not too disappointed, nor did he feel how unbearable human nature was, but in this case, secretly hiding food showed that they were greedy.

Greedy people are the hardest to master.

Li Yu came to them with a calm expression and slowly said:

"In the morning, I specifically emphasized not to hide or take anything privately, and I even let you eat well, but is this how you repay me?

We have worked together before, and anyway, we all have some friendships.

I won't kill you, let's go! From now on, if you are not from Dazhangshu Base, Dazhangshu Base will not cooperate with you again.

Let's go! "

Li Yu just said a few words and gave these people a verdict.

When they heard that Li Yu gave the order not to kill them, they were a little unbelievable for a moment.

Even other collaborators and non-staff members stared wide-eyed, unable to believe this scene.

According to Li Yu's past practice, more than fifty heads have fallen to the ground now.

Such a humane approach feels a little less like Mr. Li.

Some of the more than fifty people cried with joy when they heard that they could survive.

Some people even regretted doing this because of a moment of greed.

"Mr. Li, I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken it. Can you give me another chance? I will definitely be obedient in the future."

Perhaps because Li Yu didn't kill them, they suddenly felt extremely guilty and felt that they were so inhuman.

The Da Zhangshu Base has protected them too much. Even in the blizzard, in order to keep them alive, it gave them some small tasks to exchange for food.

"Really, Mr. Li, I shouldn't have!!" A man slapped his face from side to side, regretting that he shouldn't have made such a mistake out of greed.

In the future, if they cannot cooperate with Da Zhangshu Base, where else can they go?

We can only go further, to more dangerous places, to find opportunities to survive.

Lost the watermelon and picked up the sesame seeds? Many people can clearly see this kind of thing when they are outside, but when they are in it, they are easily confused.

There was a sound of wailing.

However, Li Yu has already made a decision and will not change it.

On the other side, the collaborators and non-staff members were talking a lot.

"Mr. Li really made me cry to death. He is so humane! I didn't expect those people made mistakes. For the sake of going through the disaster together, I spared their lives. Next time who says that Mr. Li is cold-blooded and cruel, I Be in a hurry with him!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect Mr. Li to be such a charming man!"

"I have decided that from now on I will be a dog at Da Zhangshu Base! No, I will be Mr. Li's dog! Absolutely loyal!"

"They don't know what to do in the future."

On the other side, the second uncle was a little worried and murmured: "Why has Xiaoyu changed so much? Killing these people is better than letting them leave here. What if they leave and harm the base?"

Next to the second uncle, the third uncle was gnawing on a sweet potato that had just been washed from the ground, and paused slightly with his hands.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Not necessarily. Sometimes killing blindly only results in fear but no respect. Look at these people, each one regrets it very much. Their current fate is for other non-staff personnel and collaborators to see. Unless I don't care what they think at all, and I won't let them join the outer city later.

Then it would be okay to kill all those fifty people.

It is difficult for a base that only has killings and brutal killings to win people's hearts. "

The second uncle glanced at the third uncle speechlessly and said rudely: "You are the least qualified to say this. Have you killed too many people?"

No less, no less at all.

Even a little too much.

The third uncle was not very murderous. He just killed someone very easily, so he didn't even react after killing the person.

I started too quickly and had no feeling.

But they all guessed wrong what Li Yu was thinking.

Today is the 16th and it rains on the 19th.

In other words, in two days, there will be heavy rainfall.

Heavy rainfall continued for five days.

Coupled with the melting of heavy snowfall in the past few months, a huge amount of water has been produced.

The rain and melted snow flooded the dam, flooding it, but the dam still didn't collapse, it was so strong and scary!

But it can't stop the terrible flood, it can only release the flood.

This terrifying flood arrived in Yishi half an hour later, Yueshi in 5 hours, and Ganshi in 9 hours.

At that moment, it will be the most dangerous moment for mankind.

And these people who left the Da Zhangshu base were either dead or alive.

Because they escaped the flood, but they left the Da Zhangshu base in a hurry and without a stable foothold, how could they resist the zombies that were stimulated and strengthened by the rain?

OS: Sometimes I wonder if it’s too desperate, too cruel, or too much. It’s so difficult for people in the apocalypse.
