The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 254: A lot of work needs to be done, and construction is underway

Liang Yuan laughed, looked at Li Yuejin with interest, and said, "So the water-repellent stone came from you. Who has the water-repellent stone?"

Li Yuejin shook his head: "It's not with me."

Liang Yuan looked at Zhuang Shuyuan, whose face was very ugly, and asked, "Miss Zhuang, right? Do you have the water-repellent talisman?"

Zhuang Shuyuan quickly shook her head: "It's not with me. Brother Meng... Wu Meng took him away. Mr. Liang, I have always been in charge of Wuwang Pavilion's affairs for Wu Meng. My ability is obvious to all."

"Li Yuejin, what do you mean now?"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but glare at Li Yuejin, obviously angry at Li Yuejin's power struggle.

She felt betrayed.

Li Yuejin looked at Zhuang Shuyuan and said, "Miss Zhuang, ask yourself, have I been the one pushing forward the affairs of Wuwang Pavilion in the past six months?"

"You're talking nonsense. I built the Wuwang Pavilion. How can it be your credit?" Zhuang Shuyuan immediately got angry and shouted angrily.

Li Yuejin smiled and shook his head, saying, "Miss Zhuang, you are just talking, how many things did you personally run and handle?"

"I am the one who is truly responsible for advancing the work. You might as well go down and ask the survivors of Wuwang Pavilion, do more people agree with me or you?"

"You--" Zhuang Shuyuan's face suddenly changed, and she pointed at Li Yuejin, her face pale with anger.

Li Yuejin said solemnly: "Miss Zhuang, things are different now. Wu Meng has left, and Wuwang Pavilion can no longer be led by someone who has no fighting value."

"I'm not trying to compete with you for power. I just want to show Mr. Liang my worth. I want Mr. Liang to know that I should be able to do something so that he can arrange things for me."

"Mr. Liang, compared to asking me to do some hard work, I think it might be more valuable to let me make runes."

"Of course, if you trust me, you can also let me select some people to build the Yangshan Shelter for you."

"I can guarantee that under your leadership, I will do better than I did in Wuwangting."

Zhuang Shuyuan was very anxious. She quickly looked at Liang Yuan and said, "Mr. Liang, you may not know my ability yet. I have the ability to [read minds] and can sense the other person's thoughts."

"With me here, I can help you identify which people are truly submissive, which ones have grudges against you, and which ones have ill intentions."

"I may not be able to fight well, but I can definitely be of great help in building a shelter."

Liang Yuan couldn't help but smile as he looked at the two people's anxious expressions.

"You two, I understand your abilities, and I will arrange suitable positions for you in the future."

"But the most urgent task now is to fulfill your responsibilities as the defeated party."

"You don't think that you can just let the matter of your plan to deal with me go away like this, do you?"

"Serve for a month first. After a month, I will reshuffle you and reassign your identities and positions."

"Now, go to your shelter and bring me all the survivors."

“I want to build a shopping mall complex and a large shelter.”

Zhuang Shuyuan and Li Yuejin looked at each other, then both lowered their heads helplessly.

Losers must be punished.

Serving for one month was already considered merciful by Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan estimated that with this team of nearly a thousand people, the shopping mall complex and large shelter he wanted to build should be completed within a month.

You know, in this team of nearly a thousand people, in addition to ordinary people, there are also many people with special powers.

These psychics, even if they are not of the power type, will see a significant increase in their physical fitness and strength after awakening.

It's quite easy to do some physical work.

Soon, all the people in the three shelters were gathered in the Fire Bamboo Forest.

Under Liang Yuan's instructions, the patrol team is still responsible for patrolling matters, and Han Xiangman's team is responsible for supervision.

Thousands of people began to build shelters and shopping complexes in this valley.

The first thing is to clear the weeds and trees in this valley.

This is the easiest part and can be done by ordinary people.

Then there are the farms, slaughterhouses, planting areas, living areas, etc. within the planning area.

This valley is large enough and the living area is simple, mostly built with bamboo and trees.

The muddy ground also needed to be tidied up. People dug rocks from the cliffs and laid them on the ground in the valley to form neat roads.

During this process, everyone in the shelter was reorganized, familiarized themselves with each other, divided the work and cooperated, and gradually began to understand each other again.

Liang Yuan's move not only solved the problem of building a shopping mall complex, but also solved the problem of the original stigma on these people.

As time went by, Liang Yuan's team gradually discovered the talents of these people.

Some people had worked as laborers and bricklayers and had certain experience as cement workers, so they were assigned to the construction of bamboo house residences.

The older people who have experience in farming and growing flowers were taken over by Song Wen and handed over to Aunt Li and others for unified arrangements.

Those who have experience in raising free-range pigs in their hometown will be assigned to the breeding farm.

Those who can cook will be arranged to work in a temporary canteen to help prepare big pot meals for everyone.

On the contrary, those who have management and administrative experience are of no use at the moment, and they are all just moving bricks and digging holes.

It is naturally impossible to allow these people to become managers in a short period of time.

For now, we still need to temper these people's tempers.

Even Zhuang Shuyuan, who possessed a noble temperament, had to be assigned to Song Wen's team.

It turns out that she is a person with rich experience in growing flowers.

If she didn't understand these things, she would definitely be dragged over to dig caves because of her identity as a superpower.

At this moment in the planting area, Aunt Li was directing everyone to cultivate the fields.

"Everyone, work harder. Frost is coming soon. We can't grow anything if the heavy rain keeps coming. So we have to make sure the drainage ditch is built well and wide and deep enough."

"We'll build a greenhouse in the back to reduce rainwater irrigation so the seeds won't be drowned."

"It wasn't easy for Xiao Liang to find the seeds, so we can't waste a single one."

She encouraged everyone, while Song Wen was responsible for breeding.

With her special abilities, it is very easy to cultivate seeds to germinate.

The only problem is that these seeds need careful care after germination.

Zhuang Shuyuan walked over to Aunt Li and made a suggestion, saying, "Aunt Li, I have an idea, but I don't know whether I should say it."

Aunt Li turned her head and said with a smile: "Girl, you have been here for such a long time, why are you still so polite? Just say what you want to say."

Zhuang Shuyuan said quickly: "I think we need to plant the common plants before the flood and the mutant plants after the flood separately in our planting area."

"The mutant plants are actually not afraid of flood irrigation, and they don't necessarily need greenhouses."

"Look at those taro, and the lotus roots that Wu Wangting brought back. Sugarcane can actually grow in rainwater."

Aunt Li nodded when she heard this: "Xiao Zhuang, what you said makes sense. I don't understand mutant plants. I have only grown ordinary plants."

"You still have to talk to Xiao Song about this."

"Xiao Song, what do you think?"

Aunt Li turned her head and looked at Song Wen.

Song Wen is responsible for the cultivation of mutant plants.

She stood up after hearing this, thought for a moment and said, "This is a good plan. Mutated plants should indeed be grown separately from ordinary plants."

Zhuang Shuyuan seemed to have been waiting for Song Wen to take over. She quickly walked over, smiled, and said, "Miss Song, I have a lot of suggestions. If it's convenient, can I go to your place tonight to discuss them in detail?"

Song Wen glanced at her and instinctively became wary of this woman with a noble temperament.

Because this woman is not the first time she wants to get close to him.

The last time he approached me, he used some clever rhetoric to get information about Brother Liang Yuan from me.

She only realized it belatedly after the woman had left.

From then on, her favorable impression of this woman became somewhat worse.

Song Wen looked calm and said, "It's not very convenient at night. Miss Zhuang, if you have any good suggestions, just tell Aunt Li, and then let Aunt Li tell me."

After saying this, Song Wen turned to Li Lanhua and said, "Aunt Li, I'll leave the matters here to you. I'll go check out the situation at the breeding base and slaughterhouse."

Li Lanhua waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, I'll just watch over here."

"Ms. Song, Song..."

Zhuang Shuyuan wanted to chase after him, but as soon as she left the planting base, she was spotted by Han Xiangman's men.

Zhuang Shuyuan stopped for a moment and returned to the planting base unwillingly.

Aunt Li looked at this scene and couldn't help but shake her head slightly. She sighed and shouted, "Xiao Zhuang, you are a smart child. You should put more thought into your work."

"Here, unlike other places, we only look at personal ability. Xiao Liang is not a nepotist."

Zhuang Shuyuan smiled awkwardly, walked to Aunt Li, and asked, "Is Mr. Liang so pragmatic?" Aunt Li smiled and said, "Don't think that Xiao Liang is young. He is very capable. What has he not experienced?"

"You, do your job well, and he will see it naturally."

Zhuang Shuyuan pursed her lips and didn't care.

She has been in the art troupe for so many years, and she knows more about workplace affairs than anyone else.

Do more and you will be noticed?

What a joke.

Since ancient times, the more capable a person is at getting things done, the more things he has to do.

Among those who can actually climb up, how many are capable of getting real work done?
Liang Yuan doesn't have the ability to read minds like me, so how could he know everything?

How can you be noticed if you don't cater to others' preferences?

She didn't want to be digging in the mud and growing vegetables a month later.

Breeding farms and slaughterhouses are located near the fire bamboo forest.

As the col is a living area, Liang Yuan would naturally not arrange these two areas with stronger odors there, and would definitely place them as far downwind as possible.

At this point, this place has been basically completed. Because it is close to the reservoir, it is convenient to get water and it is currently in use.

Liang Yuan would come here every day to be in charge of the slaughter. He could end the lives of all the mutant beasts with just a mental shock.

Then the subsequent slaughtering matters were handed over to other people.

Now that all the manpower is devoted to building the base, only some of the people he brought will go out to catch fish.

So the points accumulated every day are actually very few, less than one thousand.

Liang Yuan was not in a hurry either, as he knew that good things are worth waiting for.

Once the construction of the shopping mall complex is completed and all the people in Yangshan are organized, a large amount of labor will be released. At that time, there will be plenty of people to help him catch mutant beasts and earn points.

"Brother Liang, you are the fastest one."

Beside Liang Yuan, Song Wen looked at the two huge breeding farms and slaughterhouses and couldn't help but sigh.

Liang Yuan didn't even take care of the shopping mall complex right away, but instead started building the slaughterhouse and breeding farm.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "We have to catch and kill fish every day, so we can't do without a slaughterhouse. In addition, I plan to add a septic tank later, which will be used as fertilizer for the plantation."

"Ah? Will the smell be too strong?" Song Wen asked quickly.

Liang Yuan nodded and said, "So the plantation should be placed as close to the sun and wind as possible. I plan to tidy up the terraced fields outside the fire bamboo forest."

The two of them were talking about the plan and chatting at the same time.

During this time, Liang Yuan reached out his hand several times, touching Song Wen's tender palm vaguely.

Song Wen just blushed slightly, and did not refuse. She naturally held his hand.

Their relationship is now semi-public.

Except for being a little restrained with Yangmei, he basically doesn't avoid people at other times.

Oh, the situation over at Ding Yan is similar.

However, Ding Yan doesn't like to stay in the shelter all the time. She often takes people out hunting and capturing mutant beasts.

Then, people were stationed and guarded at the three places of Wuwang Pavilion, Meihai Garden and Fenghuang Temple.

Liang Yuan had no intention of giving up these places. Since he wanted to take over the entire Yangshan, he would definitely need to station people in these places.

The current structure of Yangshan is centered on the Fire Bamboo Forest and radiates to several other shelter camps.

Daily purchases and supplements can be obtained from the Fire Bamboo Forest. You can also catch fish yourself and then send them to the Fire Bamboo Forest.

For this purpose, Liang Yuan specially took out several cars that had been soaked in water. Coincidentally, there were people in the shelter who knew how to repair cars, so after replacing some of the electronic components of these cars, they were still usable.

Among the current transportation equipment, these vehicles are the most expensive.

The winding mountain road has also been renovated, and the vines, weeds and branches growing on both sides have been cut off, revealing the curb.

Zhao Kai, Cai Zhi and others liked these cars very much, so they specially dug a spacious cave nearby to prevent the cars from being damaged by mutant beasts when the tide came and were left outside.

In fact, there was no need for that. When the tide came, Liang Yuan simply put the car back into the inventory.

However, he could understand everyone's cherishment of cars, so he did not hinder everyone's enthusiasm.

The two of them walked around the shelter base. They found that four or five floors had been dug out of the complex, and there were compartments of different sizes inside.

The walls were also reinforced twice, not only using tough fire bamboo, but also using earth-attributed special stones.

The reinforcement of fire bamboo and earth-attributed special stones adds some color to the stone wall inside, and in terms of lighting, Liang Yuan also had people reserve lines.

There were plenty of lamps in his inventory, and when he left Hang Lung Building, he really bought them all.

Once this work is completed, we will install the power generation equipment extracted from the system and supply power to the entire shopping mall complex.

Not only the shopping mall complex, but also the cave dwellings opened up in the valley, the bamboo buildings in the valley, the planting bases, etc. will be equipped with electric lighting.

As it grew darker, Liang Yuan and Song Wen finished touring the base and returned to their cave home outside the fire bamboo forest.

Yang Mei had already prepared dinner and was discussing with Dong Yan and the others that after the complex opened, they would set up a storefront together and do some business.

Liang Yuan came back and heard what they said seriously, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Sister Mei, are you really going to open a store?"

Yang Mei's beautiful eyes moved as she said, "Of course, Yan Yan and I have already thought about it. We will open a cinema when the time comes."

"Everyone is busy trying to survive now, and they will definitely need to relax in their spare time. Cinemas will definitely be a popular activity."

Liang Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Then I will charge you for the electricity."

Yang Mei immediately hugged his arm and said with a smile: "You are not allowed to give us special care, otherwise it will break the rules and make people think that we took the back door, which is not okay."

Liang Yuan's expression changed, and he asked, "Through the back door?"

Yang Mei's smile froze, and she immediately knew what he was thinking. She couldn't help blushing and spat, "What are you thinking about?"

Liang Yuan chuckled: "Well, your thoughts are not pure, don't blame me."

"Hate!"

She patted Liang Yuan's arm, then whispered, "My period is coming these two days, so you can go to Song Wen's place in the evening."

Liang Yuan's heart suddenly heated up, so he said in a difficult way: "This...is not good."

Yang Mei rolled her eyes at him and said, "People have already moved in, why are you still pretending?"

It turned out that Liang Yuan had let Song Wen and Dong Yan move in since the last tide.

After sweeping through the three shelters, Ding Yan was unwilling to be outdone. Although she did not ask to move in, she told Liang Yuan that the family must reserve a room for her.

Liang Yuan didn't say anything and immediately dug out another bedroom and left it specifically for Ding Yan.

Sometimes when Ding Yan is not in the mining area or other shelters, she will come back to live here.

Although the two have not officially had a relationship, they are already together in name.

Yangmei obviously also acquiesced to this strange relationship.

Song Wen, who was busy serving dishes not far away, had a slightly red face and her hand movements seemed a little unnatural.

Obviously, with her psychic physique, she had already heard the conversation between the two.

I'm just pretending to be calm at this moment.

Ding Yan did not come back in the evening. She had greeted Liang Yuan and others early in the morning and was going to lead the team on duty in Meihaiyuan today.

Only Yang Mei, Dong Yan, Song Wen and Liang Yuan are left at home.

The dinner was very sumptuous, with vegetables, soup, meat, and even cold dishes.

Dong Yan came back and looked at the table full of dishes. She couldn't help but cheer: "Wow, is this such a sumptuous meal today?"

Yang Mei smiled and said, "Where's your brother? Has he eaten yet? If not, ask him to come and eat with us."

Dong Yan waved her hands repeatedly and said, "He is with Gu Feng. Brother Kai and the others are eating at the supermarket base."

Song Wen couldn't help but ask, "Won't he get tired of eating from the same pot every day?"

Dong Yan smiled and said, "We have only lived these good days for a few days. If he dares to say he is tired of it, I will beat him to death."

"Besides, the big pot meals there are not greasy. There are three dishes every day, including white meat, red meat, vegetables, and soup. How could the people in the three major shelters have such good meals before?"

"I've heard them talk about it privately many times. If they had known that our food was so good, we wouldn't have needed to force them to come here. They would have come here on their own a long time ago."

"Now many people are worried that in a month, when the service ends and the project is completed, they will be sent back."

"If they are driven back, they will never be able to eat such good food again."

Song Wen and Yang Mei looked at each other and then burst out laughing.
