out the door.
According to what the soldiers who led them around the base said before, they can get a certain amount of food here, three meals a day. Although the base is self-sufficient, it is said that there is a field at the bottom of another valley behind the mountain, and livestock are raised, but it is a bit nervous to provide so many people at once, so it must be saved.
But the people who were rescued didn't mind. After all, they had limited possessions and could eat free food every day, even if they could barely fill their stomachs.
Of course, in the eyes of Ye Zhao and the others, this system must be temporary. As the number of people joining the base gradually increases, and the days of living there are getting longer and longer, it is difficult to provide so many people with food, clothing, and housing for free all the time. This place will surely gradually become a shrinking urban system. Only when the residents have a clear division of labor and jointly promote the development of this base can this place be maintained for a long time.
Because it was almost time for dinner, there were quite a lot of people in the cafeteria, but they were all people who were picked up. I didn't see the soldiers at the base. It was estimated that they were still running around outside and did not come back.
Luo Xiaochen, Fang Siyuan, and Nie Renyan went to the window to get food, leaving Ye Zhao, Xia Zhiming and Mu Tou to find two empty tables and sit there waiting.
As soon as Ye Zhao sat down, he felt a light tap on his shoulder. He froze for a moment and turned around, and saw the well-behaved boy he had met twice in the supermarket and the hospital behind him, holding an empty plate in his hand, apparently eating and planning to leave.
"It's you?" It was a bit fateful to meet him here, Ye Zhao politely nodded at him.
However, this boy was obviously just here to say hello. He pursed his lips and smiled at Ye Zhao, then waved his hand and left with the plate in his hand, as always, slowly, looking a little dumbfounded.
Seeing him put the empty dinner plate in the designated collection place, and then slowly leave the cafeteria, Ye Zhao unconsciously frowned.
Is it an illusion? He always felt... this guy... a little weird.
chapter56
The rescue operation arranged by the base lasted for nearly a week. Teams were sent to all directions along different main roads, and the entire city was swept by means of a carpet search. But the results of the rescue are heartbreaking—city h is relatively well-known among first-tier cities in the country. Although the population of the city is not as high as that of the largest cities, the number is quite large. The search and rescue team found and brought back to the base, but there were only more than 10,000 people.
In contrast, the death and injury situation in the suburban countryside is much better. Especially in relatively remote places like bases, the casualties are in single digits, and some even have no casualties at all. This is a great irony for some people who used to live in the city and flaunted their good life. However, the people in those villages were unwilling to give up the place where their ancestors lived, and they all planned to continue living there, and no one came back with the search and rescue personnel of the base.
Several villages around the base, because they usually have contact with the base, when the supply of vegetables, fruits, and livestock is insufficient, they will buy from these villages. fertile land for the base to grow crops needed.
