Chapter 174 Torn Civilization
Next, Yan Xu recruited ten electricians to maintain and repair the pipes and wires in the underground laboratory. After all, they were more professional than the rude scrap metal repairmen.
But why are all these electricians bald? And they look wretched, just like the high school girls or housewives who surround them on the train. Do they have side jobs?
Yan Xu sighed and shook his head again. At least it can be used, so there is no need to be picky. There are no women here anyway.
But now he regretted killing the woman too quickly, otherwise these bald guys would have written the word "positive" all over her body. A shot in the head was too easy for them.
Based on the existing luck points and demand, Yan Xu then recruited one hundred Japanese farmers to start building the doomsday camp. As for after completion, it would naturally be the familiar process of reclaiming wasteland and farming.
The Japanese farmers retained the magical construction ability of the Japanese farmers, and the time-consuming parts could be accelerated directly by using luck points, so the construction speed of the doomsday camp was not slow. There was a change almost every day, which made It stunned, but his work enthusiasm increased greatly, for fear that he would not be able to catch up with this group of Japanese who came from nowhere.
Compared to the wasteland-style wasteland camp, the doomsday camp is cleaner and tidier, at least it doesn’t look like a garbage dump, and it also has water, electricity, gas, and sewers.
To achieve this, Yan Xu only needs to unfold the system's virtual projection to automatically obtain the adjusted design drawings, and then the Japanese farmers can carry out construction according to the drawings.
If Yan Xu hadn't been cheating, it would not be easy to build a camp of this scale in the wasteland world, because a large number of middle-aged and elderly people who had received modern education before the apocalypse died one after another, and there was no foundation for education and inheritance after the apocalypse, resulting in serious rifts in human civilization.
A few doomsday bases and doomsday fortresses not only possess powerful strength, but can also invent black technology. They are the last rays of light of human civilization.
It can be said that the number of human elites in these bases decreases with each death, because the children born to two elites are not necessarily elites. Without a large enough population base and education system, the increasingly segmented human technological civilization simply cannot continue. This is not a problem that can be solved by one or two geniuses.
Today's wasteland camps have become similar to African tribes, relying more on instinct and skills. Most of the new generation cannot even read. It is conceivable that in one or two generations, they will be no different from the natives.
Thinking of this, Yan Xu decided to let Yite take some time to find some middle-aged and elderly people who are still alive. He didn't want those who received happy education, but the elites.
Since he wants to build his own industrial base in the wasteland world, these professional talents are indispensable. He should find them to work for him before they all die.
At the same time, professional books and equipment are also collected. Only by mastering these can the industry have a foundation.
Under Yan Xu's plan, the doomsday camp was divided into five parts: the warehouse area, the industrial area, the living area, the military area, and the core area in the middle, which was like a circle drawn in a square box.
Then, according to the construction sequence, they laid the foundation, built sewers, and erected walls, step by step. However, Yan Xu built two special buildings in advance, the Doomsday Auto Repair Shop and the Doomsday Machine Repair Shop.
The auto repair shop can modify and repair vehicles, and the machine repair shop can maintain and repair machinery, which are both very important to Yan Xu now.
First of all, the recruited wasteland raiders need vehicles to play their real role. Secondly, a large number of old machines found in the warehouse need comprehensive maintenance, which requires professional people and professional venues.
However, the machinery began to be maintained, but the problem of vehicles had not been solved. The underground laboratory captured the residents of the mining town as experimental subjects, and in order to prevent being discovered, they faked the illusion of the residents' escape, so the vehicles used for transportation must not be left behind. In this sparsely populated area, it is simply impossible to move without a vehicle, so leaving the vehicle behind is the biggest flaw.
But it was impossible to drive too far, after all, the underground laboratory had limited manpower, so based on some clues, Itt took a group of wasteland scavengers and scrap metal boys and found these sealed vehicles in a mine more than ten miles away.
More than one hundred vehicles that were still in good condition solved Yan Xu's urgent problem. He immediately mobilized a large number of manpower and the four beasts to pull all the vehicles back.
The camp was almost filled with dusty vehicles, and then the first step of cleaning was done by wasteland scavengers, removing all the debris from the vehicles.
Next came the scrap metal guys. They removed the four tires and easily removable parts as quickly as experienced street demolition workers.
Finally, scrap metal repairmen stepped in. They were very familiar with these nearly scrapped vehicles and could make various reliable or unreliable combinations at will. No matter what, at least they could be driven.
The camp soon had dozens of modified vehicles available for use. The only problem was the lack of fuel. The wasteland raiders were scratching their heads in panic, but there was nothing they could do.
Although the town’s gas station is intact, the stored fuel has long been gone, and even if it was available, it cannot be used after so many years.
"Where can we find fuel?" Yan Xu, who was also anxious, called Yi Te, who had become more energetic despite being busy during this period, and asked.
"Most wasteland camps collect tires to refine oil. This kind of oil has many impurities, and even specially modified vehicles can easily stall. The only tribe that has better oil nearby is the Fire Dragon Tribe. They occupy a small refinery and an oil well, so they can provide oil of relatively good quality. Most wasteland raiders and wasteland camps exchange oil from each other." It did not disappoint Yan Xu and immediately provided useful information.
But these two places are very special, and if force is used, it is easy to end up with more harm than good.
I'm afraid this is also the reason why the Fire Dragon Tribe has been able to occupy these two places. If they can't win, it would be easy for them to die together, so they have to find other ways.
Before he knew it, a month had passed and the general framework of the doomsday camp had been completed. As the only talent under Yan Xu, Ite obtained an independent house close to the core area, which was similar to the houses where ordinary white-collar workers lived before the doomsday. However, he was very excited and couldn't help but burst into tears.
More than a decade of suffering has made Itt's heart very sensitive and more easily moved. After all, only when you have experienced despair will you cherish the hard-earned hope.
Seeing him so excited, Yan Xu sighed, and then gave him ten rolls of toilet paper and a bottle of red wine as gifts.
Aren’t these things too light to be given as gifts? Haha, when you are used to using paper but are forced to use sticks, I guarantee you will be more excited than anyone else when you see paper again.
Yan Xu was quite satisfied with Itt's performance during this period. At least he was able to keep the place running when he left, so he wouldn't see ruins when he came back.
