After joint efforts, the cement, yellow sand and other materials in the store soon piled up into a hill on the street.
The store itself is quite large, and with the inventory in the warehouse, it's really quite substantial.
Although there are only two people, Hu Xiaodong and Wei Dazhuang, their work speed is no slower than that of the four people in the store.
They are an athlete and a farmer who works in the fields all year round. Not to mention, it will not be a problem to deal with the four of Tang Xiaoquan, even if they double their number.
The only trouble was the carrying capacity of the van. Considering the safety along the way, Hu Xiaodong did not dare to overload the van.
After all, the roads in this abandoned city are full of dangers, and no one knows what they will encounter.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, it is better to load conservatively, so as not to encounter danger later and lose both the wife and the troops.
But God favored the survivors this time. Just when Hu Xiaodong was about to fill up his heart-wrenching bread, there was an engine roar not far away.
Hu Xiaodong had never thought that the sound of a vehicle engine could be so pleasant. When he turned around, he saw Luo Baochun stepping forward to the hood with an excited look on his face, and then called Wei Dazhuang to get on the car.
Done! This was something that no need to be asked. Sure enough, as the car slowly approached the store, Luo Baochun immediately rolled down the window, stuck out his head, waved his hands and shouted: "Brother Hu, it's done, hehe, according to your requirements, this guy should be enough." Bar."
Well, it was a semi-trailer truck. Hu Xiaodong really couldn't figure out how this big guy could run into the city.
But these are obviously not important anymore. With this thing, Hu Xiaodong believes that even if the whole street is moved, it will not be a problem.
"Well done! Ronaldinho! You've been a big help!" Hu Xiaodong walked quickly to the semi-trailer, walked around in a circle, and praised it from the bottom of his heart.
With the supply of new vehicles, the survivor team's carrying capacity problem has been greatly solved.
However, everything has advantages and disadvantages. Although this big guy's carrying capacity is extraordinary, its fuel consumption is definitely very optimistic.
Fortunately, the survivor team had confiscated a lot of fuel from the ear-stud man group before, so now they are not worried about the semi-trailer's appetite.
"Ronaldo has fed this big guy, and the others continue to transport the goods."
As time passed by, the survivor team mechanically repeated the same actions.
Soon the first store's reserves were moved. Immediately afterwards, members of the survivor team began to sweep the second house.
As the transportation continued, the team members began to show signs of physical fatigue.
It's no wonder that no matter who is doing the same physical work all the time, the same situation will probably happen.
"It can't go on like this." Seeing that the efficiency is getting weaker and weaker. Hua Biao asked aloud: "Come on, come on, hurry up, line up, let's beat the drum and pass the flowers around to save energy."
Hear the words. Everyone immediately adjusted their thinking and took action according to Huabiao's proposal.
Needless to say, this seemingly inconspicuous adjustment gave the team members a big chance to breathe.
The efficiency that was just lost is also being regained bit by bit.
The cargo compartment at the rear of the semi-trailer truck continued to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye. After cement, yellow sand and other construction necessities were obtained, the survivor team members began to collect miscellaneous large and small parts such as glass, iron wire, nails, etc.
Although these things are not eye-catching, in terms of large-scale construction. But it is an indispensable element.
I don’t know how long it took to work on it, but it was all done, and the sky, which was originally busy, gradually darkened.
It seems that the storm last night is not over yet, and a heavy rain is coming.
"The weather is not right, it's going to rain." Luo Baochun raised his eyes to look at the sky, squeezed his arm, and said worriedly.
Hu Xiaodong nodded: "Yeah, we've almost finished what we should do. So we can prevent the materials from getting wet. Hurry, where is the tarpaulin that was just removed from the car? Bring it and put it on the car."
Trucks usually carry tarpaulins, especially roofless trucks. In order to prevent bad weather, drivers will buy a spare one whether they need it or not.
"Sure! Brother Hu, you and Da Zhuang wait in the car, and I will throw the raincloth to you."
Wearing a raincoat is definitely a technical job. Not only that, it also requires a lot of physical strength.
Fortunately, the survivor team is quite large. Working together is not a big problem.
As a seasoned veteran of sports cars, Luo Baochun naturally assumes the commanding role.
With his coordination, the team has been relieved of a lot of trouble.
After ten minutes of tossing, the huge rainproof cloth finally covered the top of the car.
Even if it rains heavily now, Hu Xiaodong and his party do not need to worry about the materials inside being damaged by moisture.
At this point, the survivor team's collection of building materials has come to an end.
"Where are we going next?" Luo Baochun asked subconsciously after finishing work.
He had never thought about the trouble implied by this sentence.
Hearing this, Hu Xiaodong scratched his head and glanced at Huo Yuankai under the car, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.
According to the plan, they should return to their base now.
After all, what I wanted to collect on this trip was basically done.
The most important thing to do now is to go back to unload the goods and start preparing to rescue Lao Xu.
But the appearance of Huo Yuankai made this matter a little subtle.
Because I promised the other party when I came here, I would go out to look for the two missing children.
But now, the child has not been found, but they have gathered all the supplies.
It would be unreasonable to leave in this situation, both emotionally and rationally.
But with Hua Biao on his side, it was really difficult for Hu Xiaodong to speak.
At this embarrassing moment, Tang Xiaoquan spoke: "Well, I think we should accompany Brother Huo to find the children. Let's hurry up before the weather changes."
If Huo Yuankai hadn't come to the rescue before, Tang Xiaoquan would never have said these words at this moment.
After all, among the team, he was the most wary of Huo Yuankai.
Even though he tried his best to admit the latter into the team, it did not ease Tang Xiaoquan's defense at all.
This is an instinctive habit and a defensive measure.
But after Huo Yuankai took a knife to save his life, Tang Xiaoquan's attitude towards the former changed 180 degrees.
Of course, this does not come from trust, but when facing this savior, Tang Xiaoquan no longer wants to play tricks.
Besides, our mission has been completed, so driving around for a few laps is not something we can't do without time.
Based on the above, Tang Xiaoquan plans to sell a favor to Huo Yuankai.
First, show your sincerity and tell the other party that you are the one who keeps your word.
Secondly, it can be regarded as repaying Huo Yuankai for saving his life. So as not to bear this pressure and become a burden in the future.
As for Sanlai, it is nothing more than reducing the gap between the two sides and further shortening the distance between the two teams.
Hu Xiaodong was worried about not being able to speak. Now that Tang Xiaoquan had given him some advice, he took advantage of the situation and said with certainty: "Well, Xiao Tang is right. Let's get in the car quickly and try to find the children before the heavy rain comes." (To be continued.)
