Originally, because they were working for the Evolution Team, these people were a little nervous and worried that their food would be deducted from them later. As a result, Chen Fei handed out a steamed bun to each of them as soon as he had no work, which made them uneasy. My heart got some comfort.
Chen Fei casually took a steamed bun, took a bite, waved to Chu Bangguo and the workers, and then took the lead towards the open space on the hillside.
Regarding the construction of the station, Chen Fei's requirements were very simple. First, build two larger wooden houses, and then build a circle of fence within the station. It didn't need to be exquisite, it just needed to be practical enough.
Twenty workers use local materials and it only takes about four or five days to complete.
If it weren't for the fact that Chen Fei didn't plan to live in the safe zone for a long time, he would have built it more elaborately.
After learning about Chen Fei's employer's requirements, the workers got busy with enthusiasm and entered the forest one after another to search for suitable wood.
Only a gray-haired old master in his fifties or sixties remained where he was, with a look of hesitation on his face.
In the opinion of this old master, Chen Fei should be a good talker, but for a while he didn't know how to speak.
"This... master, do you have anything to say?"
Finally, Chen Fei asked with a smile on his face.
"Forehead......"
The old master hesitated for a moment, then seemed to finally make up his mind, and said with some anxiety on his face:
"Little boss, in fact, I am representing everyone. I want to ask you if you can... can you just take care of our lunch meal and let us take the remaining two meals back. Everyone will return the meal. There are relatives to take care of!”
After the old master finished speaking, he looked at Chen Fei anxiously. Although he was not very clear about many things, he also knew the status of those in the Evolution Team.
Previously, Lao Hong was building a camp for a team of evolvers, but he had one of his legs broken because he said the wrong thing.
However, Chen Fei looked at the old master with a smile and agreed simply:
"Yes! I can agree to your request. I'm not rich with other food, but I do have a lot of rice. If you don't bother to go back and shell it yourself, I can share some more with you."
The old master's eyes lit up. He knew very well what rice was. It was rice!
In the early years, when machines for rice processing and shelling had not yet been invented, most people in the village used handcrafts, stone rollers and other folk tools to shell the rice. They could make many of the tools themselves.
Since arriving in this safe zone, I only ate rice and white flour in the first few days. After that, I only ate corn stubble porridge and cornmeal whole grain dry food. It was very resistant to hunger but tasted too dry.
When they heard that the pay here was to take care of three meals a day, the workers subconsciously thought that the work here was mostly corn, but they never thought that it was actually rice and flour.
The old master grinned with joy, the wrinkles on his face piled together, and nodded hurriedly:
"No trouble! No trouble at all! We can make some rice processing tools ourselves."
After Chen Fei pondered for a moment, he continued to say to the old master:
"Of course you know how to shell rice, so... you make a simple shelling tool. I have a cart of rice here, and you can ask your relatives to come over and do the work of shelling the rice. , I will also give them a share of the food when the time comes.”
After hearing this, the old master's dry face turned slightly red due to excitement. He seemed to be afraid that Chen Fei would regret it after he finished speaking. He nodded in agreement and even threw the carpentry tools in his hands to the ground without caring about it. He turned around and trotted away.
...
Wu Hongbin felt uncomfortable after eating breakfast. He had already learned about the situation in the safety zone from other people's mouths. He knew that he needed to work in the safety zone to get food, and he could only get one piece of food a day! Fortunately, children under ten years old can receive one portion of food every day, but the amount is calculated entirely based on the child's appetite. It is barely enough for a child, and there is no leftover at all.
Therefore, Wu Hongbin felt very uncomfortable being taken care of by Chen Fei like this, and he kept frowning.
Not far away, Teacher Xiaoqian was playing games with the children. From time to time, he would teach the children some cute dances or teach them some enlightenment knowledge.
After seeing Chen Fei return who had left early in the morning, Wu Hongbin quickly stepped forward and walked to Chen Fei's side.
"Little brother, you are back! We can't eat your food in vain. Let's do this. I, Lao Hong, still have the strength, so I can go work with those workers!"
Yu Xiao came over at some point. Although she now shared part of Wu Gang's cooking work, she felt a little uneasy because she had received so much care and favor from Chen Fei and the others, and thought she could do more. matter.
"Brother Chen, I can do some hard work too!"
Yu Xiao called Chen Fei according to Wu Gang's name, because she felt it was impolite to call him by his first name, and calling him Captain Chen felt awkward.
Chen Fei looked at the two people who were embarrassed and grinned and replied:
"Sister Yu Xiao, Brother Wu, you don't need to be like this. I have already regarded you as a member of our team, so you don't need to feel restrained.
Brother Wu, you will accompany us on missions and battles in the future. Why are you uneasy?
And Sister Yu Xiao, when Fatty Wu Er goes out with us, you will have to take care of the remaining young and old, so there will be many places where you will be used in the future. Now you can rest assured and recharge your batteries. "
After hearing Chen Fei's explanation, both of them were relieved and looked at Chen Fei with gratitude and conviction in their eyes.
"All the Evolver teams who are not on a mission, please rush to the main entrance to assemble within half an hour."
At this moment, the intercom assigned to the captain of each Evolver team in Chen Fei's safe zone suddenly rang.
Chen Fei looked at Wu Hongbin and said with a helpless smile:
"Look, Brother Wu, whatever you say comes, let's go! Prepare for this mission and you can come with us!"
Wu Hongbin laughed:
"It's easy to say. I'll show you my shooting skills in a moment!"
"Dad, don't hold Brother Chen Fei back!"
Wu Yi came over at some point, raised his head and looked at Wu Hongbin and said seriously.
Wu Hongbin pretended to be angry and glared at Wu Yi and scolded:
"Hey? I said you brat! Why are you still turning your elbows outwards? Are you looking for a beating?"
Wu Yi chuckled, ran behind Chen Fei more often, pouted his little mouth and muttered naively:
"Originally, Brother Chen Fei is more powerful! When I grow up, I want to be as powerful as Brother Chen Fei!"
Chen Fei rubbed Wu Yi's little head and took out the walkie-talkie equipped in their team.
"Attention everyone, come out and gather, we have a mission!"
Soon, the busy team members gathered in front of Chen Fei. He Guantao and Afa were the first to arrive because they were inspecting the vehicle, and there were still some black oil stains on their faces. Nangong Jin and Wang Yuanyuan's hair was still a bit dirty when they came over. It's wet, probably because I just washed my hair.
This time Chen Fei left both Lin Bao and Zhao Xiaoping behind, mainly because there were more and more of them, and in order to prevent a fire in the backyard after they went out, two reliable people had to be left behind.
The most suitable candidates are Lin Bao and Zhao Xiaoping, who have been mixed up in society. They will never show mercy when it is time to take action and be ruthless. Wang Xiyu still has no sense of existence, but he can occasionally communicate with everyone compared to before. A few words.
In fact, Chen Fei was very reluctant to take this melancholic little prince with him. His head hurt just looking at him. However, this guy was so shameless that he got into the car without waiting for him to speak, leaving him speechless.
However, I have to admit that Wang Xiyu is outstanding both in terms of his shooting skills and his ability to deal with crises. When fighting hundreds of zombies in Sanliangku, he played a big role and silently took on some of the battles. Pressure, otherwise others would not be able to handle it so easily.
Wu Gang took Wu Hongbin to the modified flat road with a carriage. He opened the carriage and looked at the stunned Wu Hongbin with a smile and asked:
"How about it? Brother Wu, which one do you want to choose?".
Wu Hongbin's eyes wandered back and forth between the 81 gun and the sniper rifle. Considering that he might have to face a swarm of zombies, he finally chose an 81 gun. He caressed it with admiration and let out a sigh:
"81 bars! But I haven't touched them in years!"
