Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 763: Farming Activities
Chapter 763: Chapter 763: Farming Activities
Guo Yang’s space couldn’t preserve freshness, so Su Jin also prepared a portable battery and cassette stove for him, as well as some easy-to-carry cookware. Of course, the food she had everyone bring could be eaten without heating, but just in case, she had Guo Yang bring the complete set of equipment.
“Su Jin, you’ll definitely make a great mom,”
Guo Yang had lived with his grandfather since he was young. Although he had lived with his parents during the initial few years, he had almost no memory of that time now. Looking at the various big and small items Su Jin prepared for them, he suddenly felt a sense of a child’s journey mirroring a mother’s worries.
“I’m really thankful to you…”
Su Jin said speechlessly, these preparations were all based on their previous experiences going out; was she really being overly worried?
“OK, pack it up quickly, we are about to start setting the plates for dinner,”
Liao Yifan urged Guo Yang, and Lin Tianhui and Xue Wanyi, who had also returned, were gearing up for the day’s liveliest moment with their Heart Talk Team.
“Mom, why did you come back so late today? Is the hospital very busy recently?”
At the dinner table, while everyone was chatting, Su Jin asked.
“There aren’t many more patients than usual, but today suddenly a few healers took leave, and all their patients got pushed to me,”
Lin Tianhui took a bright green choy sum to her mouth.
The part of the choy sum that easily discolored during stir-frying had been trimmed off, leaving only the lush green leaves which were crisp and tender to eat.
Of course, the discarded choy sum stalks weren’t wasted either, but stir-fried with green peppers and pork belly to create a crispy, spicy pork dish that was extremely satisfying with rice.
“Did the healers take leave together?”
Su Xiangzhe asked, wondering if the simultaneous leave would stress his wife.
Lin Tianhui sighed, “Yes, I heard it was led by Gao Zhenzhen. I wonder if it’s because she argued with Dean Xu a few days ago, and did this out of spite.”
S Base Hospital had recently celebrated its first anniversary, so a public commendation ceremony was specifically held.
Especially for those medical staff and healers who had contributed during the initial formation of the hospital and the construction of the city walls, they were praised and received promotions in their positions, including Lin Tianhui and Yao Yi.
You should know that in the early stages, the base had only a handful of medical personnel and healers. Not only did the base have to complete its own construction, but it also had to fend off surrounding zombies, so almost every medical staff and healer was working beyond their capacity.
Now that the base was stable, Xu Mingzhi took this opportunity to suggest to Liang Jiuhui that everyone be commemorated.
Liang Jiuhui naturally agreed wholeheartedly, even awarding 3000 base points to each person on the list.
This caused particular healers like Gao Zhenzhen, who came later, to become restless, especially when she saw Lin Tianhui’s position being promoted again, second only to Dean Xu in the hospital, which turned her persistent rivalry with Lin Tianhui into anger, and she even argued with Xu Mingzhi backstage…
The family later returned from an outing, and Lin Tianhui did not bring up the matter.
And in the past two days, it was unclear what Gao Zhenzhen was scheming privately, but in coordination with three other healers who were close to her, they all submitted their leave requests.
The reason is reasonable as well, Tianhui had taken over a month of leave before, and the few of them also needed rest.
Healing Element Healers are a rare existence in every base. Of course, some healers follow the teams and do not join the hospitals, so there generally aren’t spare healers in the hospitals. Now that four healers are taking leave together, the workload of the remaining healers like Tianhui has increased significantly these days.
After hearing this, Su Jin couldn’t help but laugh bitterly, “How is it that it feels just like the workplace? This kind of people exists everywhere?”
“You could suggest that the hospital hire more healers. The treatment of healers in the base is not low, surely there would be people willing to join,”
Guo Yang suggested, based on what he had heard in the Heart Talk Store. Actually, those independent healers don’t earn much more Crystal Cores than those in hospitals, and they don’t have stable security either.
“That’s true, I’ve been thinking about this issue too, Xiao Zhang and the others have been very tired these days,”
Tianhui nodded in agreement. Fortunately, it wasn’t the time of Zombie Tide. Last time during the Zombie Tide, there was a serious shortage of healers. The collective leave taken by those few this time had exposed the lack of healers in the base hospital, and it was better to be prepared beforehand.
…
Yunguo had been busy in the Space ever since he returned from the F City base. Because the family hadn’t expected to sell so many goods in the F City base, all the thick pancakes and meat and egg products he had made in the Space had sold out completely.
This gave him renewed energy, as he always said he wanted to make full use of the resources in the Space to benefit the people of Huaxia.
“Ah, last time we had all that meat thanks to that Kou Ning. I gave the surplus to that kid, otherwise it would have been left over,”
Yunguo said proudly.
“Only you still treat him as a child, and made Xiao Jin worry,”
Xiuying chided from the side. Su Jin had not expected that the family would take her advice as a prophecy and try to change the path ahead for Kou Ning, but they trusted the family’s judgment.
Lu Hao was right, no matter if the Heart Talk Team would become enemies with Kou Ning in the future, they had at least successfully persuaded him to leave the Han Family, and he had never done anything to harm them from start to end.
“Xiao Jin had only heard rumors before, and you know how a person’s reputation can be distorted when passed around. Besides, that kid seemed to have been controlled by them. Only after breaking free could he slowly grow. Let’s just wait and see!”
While Yunguo was kneading the dough in the big basin, he mentioned, not knowing why, but watching Kou Ning eat meat always reminded him of Little Wu and Little Liu in the Space, always hovering around him wanting meat.
However, Little Wu and Little Liu were not picky. Yunguo usually fed them raw meat, as cooked salted meat could impair their healthy growth, which is why for animals.
The huge sales at the F City base not only depleted Yunguo’s inventory but also emptied a warehouse of food in the Space.
Plus, considering the supply left for the F City base and trading with Bu Hong, the family had also started to farm and harvest day and night in the Space.
“If we get a chance, I really think it’s time to bring in a harvester,”
Lin Cheng remarked, given that the arable land in the Space had expanded significantly. Although they had been using Nie Qing’s Wind Element Ability for harvesting, having a harvester would still speed up the process.
Luckily, gathering the crops didn’t require their manpower, just Su Jin’s telekinesis to move the bulk of grains, otherwise, it would indeed be a massive project.
