Chapter 1692: Help you to ascend to the throne (forty-six
"Okay! It's late, Lao Xu, don't wander around now. Just leave the night guarding work to a few of us. Go back and rest early, and remember not to run out to patrol the night at night. You are like this I don’t trust these brothers. You know Da Zhuang’s temper, and I think you don’t want him to make trouble with you if I tell him about this matter later.”
It was a threatening admonishment.
Hearing Hu Xiaodong's persuasive words, Xu Renjie pointed helplessly: "You, you, oh~"
With a long sigh, Lao Xu shrugged his shoulders: "That's all, I'll leave it to you tonight. Keep an eye out, especially the guys in the manor, and remember to say hello if there is any situation."
Not forgetting his advice, Hu Xiaodong puffed out the last trace of his cigarette and flicked his fingers: "Old Xu, are you still worried about the work my brothers are doing? Just keep it to yourself. Let's go! Get down." "
When he went down to the manor, Lao Xu didn't go to rest.
How could he think about going to sleep before his brother was completely settled?
"Brother Xu!" As soon as he entered the manor, Old Xu heard someone calling him.
It seemed that the person he was looking for was none other than Liu Mu, whom he was looking for.
Liu Mu quickly rushed forward, breathing heavily.
Lao Xu patted the young man's back and persuaded with a smile: "Haha, brother Liu, don't be anxious. If you have anything to say, please tell me slowly."
"Huhu~" After taking a few breaths to regain his breath, Liu Mu replied: "Brother Xu, what you just said has been done. I have already told the brothers in the manor that everyone has no objection to your proposal. You can have whatever you want on the first floor here. If you need anything, just tell us."
Nodding with satisfaction, Lao Xu was quite happy that Liu Mu could get things done so quickly and comfortably for everyone.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. I have nothing to do." As long as the night accommodation for everyone in the manor and our brothers is settled, the biggest problem will be solved.
"Brother Chengxu, I won't disturb your rest. It's been a hard journey for you, so rest early and have a good dream."
Liu Mu's instructions were sincere.
Lao Xu nodded again: "Well, the same goes for you. You have gone through so much today. Go down and comfort your brothers and tell them who they can rest assured about at night. We will be responsible for safety issues."
"Oh, that's good!"
Lao Xu didn't know whether everyone in the manor could sleep well at night in the past, but with his brothers here tonight, they would definitely be able to sleep soundly and not be able to run away.
After the greetings were completed, Liu Mu turned around and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, I was bumped into by someone.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Liu Mu apologized out of habit as he didn't expect there was someone behind him.
"Liu Mu, I'm looking for you." It was Tang Xiaoquan who spoke.
When Xu Renjie saw that the person coming was Tang Xiaoquan, he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong, Quan Zi, what do you want to do with Liu Mu?"
"Oh, um, I saw they have electricity here, so I wanted to ask if they could boil some water. The brothers are also quite tired along the way, so it would be good if they could soak their feet in some water." Tang Xiaoquan put his thoughts into perspective. Tell everyone.
After hearing this, Liu Mu was stunned for two seconds, and then responded: "Huh? Boil water to wash your feet. We have this here. If necessary, there is a large bath upstairs, where you can take a bath."
Lao Xu had searched all the rooms here, so he knew the big bathhouse Liu Mu was talking about.
It's called a bathhouse but it's actually just a big bathhouse, but it's definitely no problem to fit three or four people in it.
"Take a bath!?" To be honest, Tang Xiaoquan was really moved when he heard this word.
His memory of the last time he took a bath was blurry. After the apocalypse, the preciousness of water made it impossible for survivors to do such luxurious things.
When he heard Liu Mu talking about taking a bath, Tang Xiaoquan's first reaction when he recalled it was that it was impossible.
"Forget about taking a bath. It's such a waste of water. We can just use the hot water to soak the brothers' feet." Tang Hongxi's answer was very honest.
This was something that was unimaginable in the past. In the civilized world, we are used to living a life where we can reach out and have something at our fingertips.
Turn on the faucet, let the tap water flow, take a shower, soak in the bath, and let the water flow under the shower.
At that time, we would not think about where the water comes from, whether the flushing water is wasted, let alone whether taking a bath really requires so much water.
Because we were not short of water at that time, we did not understand the preciousness of water sources.
But in the last days, when these daily habits of ours are taken away, nature forces us to face our lives again.
Without the convenience of reaching out, the survivors finally realized how luxurious their past life was.
The survivors also began to learn to save for the first time and started school to learn how to make use of the gifts of nature to live.
Water sources that were originally thrown away after use began to be reused, and the funny thing is that these laws that humans should abide by were only understood by humans in the end of the world when humans were almost destroyed.
Therefore, whether the end of the world is good or bad for mankind is really not a matter that can be generalized.
At least in some respects, the end of the world will make human beings, who once wantonly plundered nature and claimed to be at the top of the biological chain, realize their own problems and understand their own insignificance.
Humans have never been at the top of the food chain.
The earth's existence today is due to the co-prosperity of all living things.
It is a pity that these balances were completely destroyed because of human beings' disobedience of "rules", and then human beings were finally "punished" by God.
Maybe this "punishment" is not what God calls it, but...it finally comes to humans, and humans understand some things.
After listening to Tang Xiaoquan's concerns, Liu Mu waved his hands and said: "It doesn't matter, we have a big swimming pool outside with a lot of water stored in it. It is enough for daily consumption. Besides, in addition to the swimming pool, we also have a lot of domestic water here. So it’s okay for you to boil water and take a bath.”
Lao Xu thought about it for a while and replied before Tang Xiaoquan could say anything: "Xiao Tang, let Liu Mu arrange it. It's okay to boil some water for everyone to take a bath. Just wait until it rains to replenish the supplies."
Old Xu knew the situation of the manor to some extent. Although he didn't have specific statistics on how much water there was, he still had some idea.
Taking a bath with so many people doesn't actually consume much water. Besides, the used water won't be wasted. It can be collected and used for other purposes.
With Lao Xu's approval, Liu Mu felt confident. He smiled and said to Tang Xiaoquan: "We can't do it here next to the manor, but the basic living conditions are still okay. You guys can rest here for a while, and I'll go and help you." You arrange the bath water, and I will inform you when it is ready."
