Busy Farming In the Last Days - Chapter 92
Because of the high salary, there are many people who signed up, but after the actual screening process, there are not many people who meet the requirements. The high wages are not only due to the dangerous working environment, but also because of the high technical requirements of the job.
At the end of the rigorous screening, all the people who meet the requirements add up to about 200 people. Compared with the overall demand of 500 people, half of the vacancies are not filled. Although these skilled workers can be trained to increase skilled workers, it’s just that the training cycle is long, and the current resources are limited, and they cannot withstand much loss. Therefore, a temporary decision can only be made to put these people into work first, and then later. See if there is a faster solution.
For Ji Cha, the most direct impact of not hiring 500 people is that the pressure on cooking here is less, and there is no need to open a new canteen to share the workload. It is just food for more than 200 people. , The existing canteen can be easily brought in.
There was an old man who was looking for his sister in the T city base these days, from time to time to inquire about the trend, and he finally got the news of the return of the T city base in the first two days of October, and people are sure to send it. I’m back, but I have to wait until the next batch of personnel exchanges, and the time is about mid-October.
As long as he can see his relatives and wait for a few days to get anything, the old man will return home thankful for the news after he learns the news. Before the season tea, the renting of the house for the elderly to help the elderly has been properly arranged. The remaining empty rooms in the elderly’s home have been rented out at market prices. They also happened to be rented to a few people working on the farm. Familiar, secondly, knowing the roots and knowing the bottom line, and living with the elderly is safer.
Renting a house can kill two birds with one stone. For renters, the old man’s house is actually much better than the apartment building built by the base. A room in the apartment building is said to be a room when it is dead, but the old man’s house is also. I rented a room, but in fact the public area is very large, not to mention the yard at home is very leisurely and comfortable. As for the elderly, they have nothing to spend on the elderly, and the two houses are rented out, so even if his sister comes from T City, she can live in peace even if she doesn’t go out to work.
However, there is a sudden change.
When Ji Cha and Liang Jincheng had lunch together, the troop vehicles that went out to deliver meals every day came back and reported a terrible news.
“On the way back, we met a group of zombies of about 100 people. It was visually diverted from a relatively large group of zombies. I don’t know if a large group of zombies is coming.”
The soldier who came to report hadn’t finished speaking, and another guard came to inform him: “Team Liang, there is a radio message from T City.”
Liang Jincheng immediately put down his chopsticks and walked out with the soldiers. Ji Cha in the house also became nervous for a while. He chewed the food in his mouth and got up and followed out. Liang Jincheng turned his head and looked at him, and said to Ji Cha: “T City has suffered a lot. The attack by the zombies has caused hundreds of casualties. We are asking for help.”
This is really terrible news, especially when such people feel a trace of stability, the hammer of reality is swung down mercilessly, smashing the stability of the surface, and reminding them: you guys Still living in an extremely dangerous environment.
“So is there really a large-scale group of zombies?” Ji Cha’s mood became more and more depressed.
Liang Jincheng nodded affirmatively: “If there is no accident, it may be a group of zombies much larger than we have encountered before.”
After this apocalyptic disaster struck, the rate of people transforming into zombies was much higher than that of normal people, not to mention that many people assimilated normal people through various methods after transforming into zombies. Country C was originally a country with a large population. After a lot of toss, the ratio of normal people and loss is less than one to ten. This number of zombies is extremely exaggerated, and it may not even be completely cleaned up within decades.
Liang Jincheng soon prepared to leave: “I want to go out in person, you go back to the factory first, and wait for me to come back.”
Ji Cha naturally didn’t want him to take the risk: “I don’t know what’s going on outside, or let them go out and inquire about it?”
He knew that he was a little selfish when he said such things, but he couldn’t be selfish at this time.
Liang Jincheng stretched out his hand and hugged Ji Cha, then kissed his forehead, looked at Ji Cha gently and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t take risks for you, as long as you are safe at home and wait for me to come back.”
Knowing that he couldn’t stop him, Ji Cha had to agree and returned to the factory in the afternoon. During dinner, he and everyone in the factory revealed the news of the zombies encountered in the base of T City.
Everyone was surprised at first, and then turned calm. After all, such things are too normal after the end of the world. It’s just that peace returns to calm, and there are still some uncomfortable things.
Wang Qin asked Ji Cha: “Will this matter affect our base?”
Ji Cha shook his head: “The possibility is actually very small. After all, the T city base is far away from us, and there are many roads in the middle. It is very likely that some methods will be used to lead the zombies to other places.”
“But,” Wang Qinxue worried, “If you don’t kill the zombies, isn’t this a palliative action? Is it possible that the zombies will come back after a circle?”
Zhang Xing frowned: “It’s not wrong to say that, but what can be done? No one has the ability to deal with so many zombies. One, is it possible to use cannonballs for the rest? It will have a greater impact on the already cruel environment.”
At this moment, Zhang Qinqin, who had been sitting next to her without saying a word, suddenly spoke.
“Or we can change our mindset. Instead of thinking about how to destroy zombies, we should think about how to use zombies?”
Ji Cha turned to look at her: “What do you mean?”
Zhang Qinqin explained: “I used to read the news. Some people in foreign countries would not choose to bury their ashes after cremation. Instead, they scattered their ashes in the sea or simply under the flowers and trees. Then I checked and found that the ashes contained almost Everything is a good fertilizer. Although the zombies have a virus, the substance should not change after they are burned into ashes? Isn’t the farm just short of natural fertilizers, if it can be used…”
When she said this, the men who were still expressing their opinions in front of them all stared at her, their eyes full of shock.
Zhang Qinqin hesitated involuntarily: “Then what, I just said casually…”
“I think this proposal is very good,” Ji Cha’s eyes lit up. “Although it may be difficult to operate, this idea can be fully considered.”
Wang Qinxue also slapped his thigh: “No, it’s simply killing two birds with one stone, and it can get rid of the troubles.”
“In that case, if this idea is really turned into reality, do we still need to have zombies ready to use? Wouldn’t it be dangerous for someone to operate this thing?” Zhang Xingdao.
Ji Cha nodded: “This is just an idea. I have to discuss it with Jincheng. It is best if it is feasible, and there is no way if it is not feasible.”
Ji Cha stayed in the factory for two days worrying about Liang Jincheng. Fortunately, on the third day, a guard came to pick him up and told him that Captain Liang had returned.
Without a word, Ji Cha returned to the apartment with the guards.
The T city base was attacked by zombies, and so far, about two hundred people have been lost. Fortunately, the group of zombies that attacked them is not the main body of the group. The main force has deviated from most of the base’s living quarters. Set off to the mountainous area. Therefore, the loss of the T city base can still be recovered.
“This time the biggest damage is actually not the personnel, but the food, because the zombie’s breakthrough happened to be one of the planting areas in T City, because the zombie virus may infect these planting areas, and their base’s food harvest in the second half of this year It may be greatly discounted, so I hope to slightly adjust the agreement we signed last time to increase our distribution rights in metal mineral resources, and correspondingly, we need to support them more food.”
There is currently no shortage of food in the S city base, and if it is given in the second half of the year, Ji Cha will be more confident that it can meet the needs of the T city base. Besides, it will definitely be the blood of the S base to switch to higher resource allocation rights.
“Of course it’s okay,” said Ji Cha. “Except for some meat resources that we don’t have ample abundance yet, vegetables and staple foods actually already have enough storage.”
As he spoke, he remembered what he cared more about: “Does the zombie group do anything to deal with it now?”
Liang Jincheng undressed in front of Ji Cha and went directly to the bathroom. He opened the door and talked to Ji Cha while taking a shower: “Do you know there is a scenic spot in Q City, Lake Q?”
“Of course, what’s the matter?”
Although Lake Q is called a lake, it is actually a lake that has been dry for many years. The reason why it is a famous attraction is that it is deep enough, big enough, and neatly edged, almost like a cliff. God put a big washbasin here but forgot to fill it with water.
“I discussed with Feng Xing and the others, and plan to work together to draw the zombies that are still wandering nearby. If it succeeds, the zombies can be trapped in place, and there is no need to worry that they will climb up.”
Ji Cha immediately thought of the zombie disposal problem that he had discussed with them at home before: “Can I burn a batch for each batch?”
Liang Jincheng half-closed his eyes and looked at Ji Cha through the drops of water: “Huh?”
Ji Cha brought up the idea of burning zombies to make fertilizer. The more I talk about it, the more I think this is a good way: “I remember that there are no dense forests around Lake Q, and the bottom of the pit is also very clean. For other things, it can also prevent the problem of zombies getting higher and higher, and you can continue to draw zombies into it in the future.”
All of a sudden, the three problems of how to deal with zombies, how to deal with zombies sustainably, and how to profit from them were all solved.
