The sky was getting darker. After breakfast, the temperature on the rooftop dropped a little. Chen Yuanyuan took Shen Yichen and Liu Feiyang, who had just woken up, to the rooftop to fix the sprinkler system.
After finishing the sprinkler system, the three of them, dripping with sweat, went downstairs to the living room to rest. When they went downstairs, they met He Yuehua who had just gotten off work.
"Huahua, have you eaten?" Chen Yuanyuan asked when he saw He Yuehua was about to collapse.
"After eating some, I feel hot and tired, and I have no appetite." He Yuehua said with a grimace.
"Why didn't your hospital change to night shift?" Zhang Linlin saw He Yuehua looking tired. It was so hot that she had to work day shift. Even if the hospital had air conditioning, the heat on the road would be unbearable.
"The hospital is closed 24 hours a day, you are so smart." Chen Yuanyuan couldn't help but laugh at Zhang Linlin.
"But now the day shift has no shortcomings except for going out to hot spots. Except for emergency cases of heat stroke during the day, there are quite few other types of patients, so it's not hard work." He Yuehua said.
In addition to simple blood tests, people entering the Guangdong base are also required to have a physical examination report by public or private companies.
It is difficult for people without physical examinations to find jobs in the base. After they cannot find a job, they can only make ends meet by searching outside and doing odd jobs, making it difficult for them to get around in the base.
Therefore, there are basically no patients with chronic diseases in the hospital, and He Yuehua's work is therefore easier.
"If you haven't worked hard, why do you look more tired than before?" Chen Yuanyuan asked.
"The Traditional Chinese Medicine Physician Examination will be held next week, and the road to work with a license will be wider in the future." He Yuehua has been reading and answering questions at night after get off work these days, and the dark circles under her eyes have become much heavier.
"Eat some fruit, I just took it out of the refrigerator." Grandma He brought a plate of iced watermelon to the living room.
"Grandma, the sprinkler system is installed. I'll teach you how to use it later." Chen Yuanyuan took a piece of watermelon and ate it. In the summer, you have to eat watermelon with the air conditioner on.
"Okay, this will save you a lot of trouble in the future." Grandma He said with a smile.
"Have you bought any heat-insulating paint? I'll lay tiles on the rooftop the day after tomorrow when I don't have to go to work." Liu Feiyang said.
Liu Feiyang remembered that when Chen Yuanyuan tested the water just now, the water dried up as soon as it was spilled on the floor, so he planned to get everything at home ready before returning to your city.
"Are you quitting your job?" Shen Yichen asked.
"Not yet. It's just a leave of absence without pay. You can still work when you come back later." Liu Feiyang said.
"How long do you plan to return to your city?" Chen Yuanyuan thought that it would not be easy to go back now. Liu Feiyang and Zhang Linlin also have family members in your city, and they would probably have to stay for a year and a half, but they couldn't bear to leave her.
"We plan to wait until the New Year is over in 25 years before coming back," Zhang Linlin said.
"So long? Then we won't see each other for more than half a year?" He Yuehua said.
"Why don't you come over too, haha." Zhang Linlin said with a smile.
"I won't go out in this damn weather." Although
"Has your family entered the base?" Shen Yichen remembered that most cities have also established bases. Although they are not as complete as big cities, they are safer than outside.
"We got in touch after we came to Guangdong City. My brother works in the tax bureau and is now taking my dad to the base. Linlin, her parents and younger brother are still living in the countryside." Liu Feiyang took him with him after arriving in Guangdong City. Topan Zhaofa and the others contacted his family.
"I wonder what it will be like to live in the countryside in the last days." Chen Yuanyuan has always lived in Xiangcheng. Even when she travels on business, she always goes abroad or to big cities. Her knowledge of rural life is all seen in the news and TV series.
"Although supplies are still lacking in the countryside, the village is quite safe, so they don't dare to risk going to the base. We will only pick them up when we arrive," Zhang Linlin said.
Although life in the countryside is manageable, natural disasters occur frequently in the apocalypse, and Zhang Linlin's parents are much older. The medical conditions at the base will be better, and they will be easier to contact in the future.
"That's good, but have you considered taking them all over to Guangdong City?" Chen Yuanyuan asked.
"The older generation likes to stay in their hometown. Besides, with Pan Zhaofa and his two brothers taking them with them, it will be no problem to go back more often in the future." Liu Feiyang shook his head and said.
"Is it expensive to go with the convoy?" Chen Yuanyuan thought for a while, and also wanted to check with her godmother in the capital to see if the convoy had developed a northern route.
"Not only did they confiscate our money, but they also asked us to help escort them and subsidize half of our gasoline." Liu Feiyang said.
Originally, Liu Feiyang also wanted to pay Pan Zhaofa and the others expenses, but Pan Zhaofa insisted not to take a penny and even gave him a gasoline subsidy.
When they were in Xiangcheng, they also went out to search for supplies together. They knew that Liu Feiyang was very skilled and he didn't need to spend too much manpower to accompany him. He could also help in times of crisis.
"Bodyguard? Is it dangerous?" When Chen Yuanyuan heard that he wanted to help the bodyguard, he was worried that the two of them could not bear it.
"There are dangers everywhere. We are part-time workers. We don't usually have to participate in things. We just help out when there is danger." Liu Feiyang felt that just being exempted from the escort fee was good. He believed that Pan Zhaofa proposed the subsidy out of friendship.
"Well, just tell me what supplies you need. You don't have to be polite to me." Chen Yuanyuan said.
"We try to buy food at the base as much as possible. After all, it's hard to get expired and non-damaged things when we go out, but we still have to get them from you." Liu Feiyang said.
A few people chatted and finished eating the watermelon. He Yuehua was going back to her room to study questions, and Grandma He was also preparing to go out at midnight.
Liu Feiyang and Shen Yichen also left for work, so Zhang Linlin went back to her room to do some handicrafts. For a while, Chen Yuanyuan was left alone in the living room.
Chen Yuanyuan was lying on the sofa bored, and when she was opening Yue Cheng Tong to check out the latest news from the base, Zheng Jiamei sent Chen Yuanyuan a message.
[Zheng Jiamei: Yuanyuan, do you want to go out to play? 】
[Chen Yuanyuan: Okay, where to go? pedestrian mall? Or is it Guangdong Fu Shopping Mall? 】
[Zheng Jiamei: Let’s go out of the city! 】
[Chen Yuanyuan: Huh? What fun is there to go out? 】
Since Zheng Jiamei arrived at the Guangdong base, he will basically never leave. It is rare for him to leave the base.
At this time, Chen Yuanyuan saw a few photos sent by Zheng Jiamei, so she clicked on them and looked at them. They looked like a row of villas in a community.
[Chen Yuanyuan: Where is this? 】
[Zheng Jiamei: This is Langcheng base, only 16 kilometers from the south gate, very close! 】
Chen Yuanyuan estimated that the south gate is the second phase of the base. If the second phase is included, the Langcheng base is still close to the Guangdong base.
[Chen Yuanyuan: Is it over there in the second phase? 】
[Zheng Jiamei: Almost right, right next to the land allocated to Xiangcheng in the second phase]
[Chen Yuanyuan: Is there anyone at the base over there? 】
[Zheng Jiamei: It’s basically all people from Xiangcheng. It’s a base headed by the four major families. My brother just came back and is now with Langcheng. 】
