Wasteland scavenging, fat girl takes the sick and disabled family away

Chapter 398 Land Reclamation
Some survivors asked Yao Yao curiously.

What are you doing collecting so many wood chips?

The timber was cut into a messy, irregular shape, some even into small pieces the size of a palm.

They couldn't make anything at all, not even bows and arrows.

Shi Yaoyao said, "Our aunt said that earth can produce wood, wood can produce fire, fire can produce metal, and metal can produce water."

Looking at the survivors' bewildered yet curious eyes, Shi Yaoyao smiled and said...
“You can’t understand it, and neither can we, but you can’t go wrong by listening to your aunt.”

My aunt said they should collect the remaining wood. This will also earn academic credits for the students at the school.

Of course they rushed to do it, since collecting timber wasn't difficult anyway.

The large group of children soon began laughing and joking, interspersed with playful fights.

They had already collected all the discarded wood from the open space.

The teacher leading the shipbuilding project was still studying how to build a ship, holding that shipbuilding book in his hand.

They are sorely lacking in talent in this area.

You can only learn and apply what you've learned.

Soon, the teacher who was leading the shipbuilding project directed the older children to assemble the cut pieces of wood.

Meanwhile, another group of teenagers delivered the latest timber.

The open space that had been cleared out quickly became too crowded to use.

In this way, Qu Yongxian wouldn't need to specifically find Shi Yuebai to say anything.

Shi Yuebai felt that the ship built by the teacher was too small, so she wanted to continue leveling the ground and build several larger ships.

Xu Xuejiao and Shi Yi both arrived at the top of the garbage heap, listening to Shi Yuebai's plan.

After Shi Yuebai left, Xu Xuejiao turned to ask Shi Yi,

"Are we building so many ships, and preparing to build even more and bigger ones, to prepare for those foreign powers with ships?"

She remembered that Shi Yi had said that they must pull up the third wall before the survivors in the big city could react.

So now that their headquarters has gone to such great lengths to build ships, they must have a bigger plan. A hint of confusion appeared on Shi Yi's handsome face.
There is absolutely no such plan.

"Isn't the reason we're going to put so much effort into building ships because we have too much wood?"

Shi Yuebai now needs a larger space and more laborers to do her work.

It's all to consume the ever-increasing amount of wood in the lair.

Seeing Xu Xuejiao's dazed expression.

Shi Yi couldn't help but smile.

He also kindly comforted Xu Xuejiao.

"On the bright side, we now have more labor and more space to operate."

Although this extra large area was entirely used for shipbuilding.

Xu Xuejiao nodded slowly.

She looked toward the open space.

Da Jiao and Xiao Jiao were pulled over to help post tasks and clear the land, which has become a regular task on the garbage mountain.

As long as the survivors on the garbage mountain are willing to sign up, there will be no limit to the number of people recruited.

Qu Yongxian looked at the electronic screen that had been erected on the ground, where three tasks were scrolling.

One task is fixed and long-term: exchanging daily necessities for expired food.

One task is to collect tools to prepare the land.

These are two tasks that everyone is familiar with and has done before.

The third task is new and a bit strange.

That is to break the wood into shavings, mix the wood chips with some miscellaneous mud and sand, and fill the gaps in the garbage mountain.

The name of this new task is: Land Reclamation.
