Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Chapter 913: Chapter 642: Sigh (Triple Combo, 10,000 Words—Requesting Monthly Tickets)

Overlord Plastic Factory.

After Li Yu woke up, the others, including Old Lv, gradually woke up too.

Once everyone was awake, they ate some dry food and started transporting the PC sun panels. The three large warehouses were filled to the brim with sun panels.

Apart from the guards, everyone else had to participate in the transportation.

Although a single sun panel isn’t particularly heavy and can be carried by one person, it’s quite large in size, so generally, two people lift it and place it on a small cart before pushing it to the truck.

To improve the transport efficiency, more than a hundred people were divided into four groups.

One group focused on moving the sun panels onto the small carts,

another group pushed the carts filled with PC sun panels to the warehouse door,

the third group pushed the carts underneath the trucks,

and the final group lifted the sun panels again and placed them on the trucks.

This assembly line transportation significantly improved the efficiency.

Everyone worked busily on transportation, as the temperature gradually rose with the sun.

Most of the people were young, strong men; after half an hour of moving, they felt hot and started to take off their riot gear and jackets, with some wearing only short sleeves.

The temperature slowly climbed to seven or eight degrees above zero, and the transportation progressed quickly. They had to load all the sun panels onto the trucks before ten in the morning; otherwise, it would be hard to return to the Big Camphor Tree Base tonight.

Although there weren’t any zombies near the Overlord Factory at night, being outside gave everyone an uneasy feeling.

As time passed, one sun panel after another was loaded onto the trucks, which soon filled up one after the other.

Starting from six in the morning, they continued transporting until a little past eight, finally managing to fill most of the vehicles.

At this point, they had emptied one warehouse of sun panels and more than half of the second one.

Yang Tianlong wiped his sweat, picked up a bottle at the door, took a large gulp of water, and, with a long sigh, said to Li Yu, ”Xiao Yu, I reckon we can fill the trucks by half-past nine; looking at the warehouse stock, there’d be some left over.”

Hearing this, Li Yu turned to him and said, ”If we can’t finish loading, then leave it. There’s plenty here, definitely enough.”

Then he shouted to Li Gang in the distance, ”Gangzi, did you take note, not mixing things up, right?”

Li Gang grinned and said, ”Noted, according to the numbers Ding Jiu provided, we actually already have enough. The upcoming load is supplementary.”

Li Yu felt a tinge of happiness in his heart; this trip wasn’t in vain after all. In just two days, they managed to gather all the materials needed for the greenhouse sun panel covers, smoothly and efficiently.

After taking a sip of water, Li Yu and Yang Tianlong continued with the transportation.

.....

Big Camphor Tree Base.

Inner and Outer City.

At first light, Luo, Old Qin, and He Chao were already up and about, demonstrating high efficiency. Upon learning that Li Yu and the others went out seeking sun panels and would start assembling the coverings once back, they became even more determined to build the framework.

They had to finish the greenhouse framework before Li Yu returned.

For the last two days, they started the work at dawn. Even after dark, they continued till eight in the evening, working almost sixteen hours each day.

Today was the last day. Looking at less than a tenth of the land remaining, Luo said to Lao Yi, ”Lao Yi, do you think we can finish all this today?”

Lao Yi said, ”Get a move on, we can do it today, no problem.”

Luo nodded and continued to focus on setting up the framework.

In the Inner City, Ding Jiu likewise, with Zhou Weiguo and others, kept building the framework, visibly accelerating the greenhouse construction.

Elsewhere.

At the indoor planting base, An Ya and her group have been incredibly busy these past few days.

Soaking seeds, nurturing seedlings, and relocating them.

To fill the demand for planting the dozens of acres of land, a significant amount of time was needed for seedling nurturing.

Seeing the speed and urgency with which Luo and Ding Jiu worked, An Ya and her team also increased their efficiency.

They didn’t want to delay the greenhouse completion due to a lack of seedlings.

Indeed, constructing these greenhouses was imperative.

The base had many cattle, sheep, and rabbits, all needing grass to eat.

Currently, these animals were eating dry grass, which was from the last harvest as straw or wild grass collected earlier.

Eventually, this dry grass would run out.

After the natural disaster, many plants withered, others froze to death.

Though a small amount of vegetation sprouted post-disaster, temperatures were dropping again.

Even outside, there wasn’t much vegetation left.

This cold winter was more brutal and difficult than last year’s.

At least last year, experienced survivors could dig up grass roots to eat. But now, after the disaster, many plants had died.

Finding grass to eat was an opportunity no longer available.

In more than a month, the livestock at the Big Camphor Tree Base would also face a severe shortage of dry grass.

Of course, Li Yu and his group couldn’t afford to use the underground plantation to grow grass—it would be too extravagant.

Now, building greenhouses became very necessary.

Many types of grass, like chives, could be repeatedly harvested once they grew, providing continuous supply.
