Apocalypse Rebirth: 3000 million won at the beginning

Chapter 1646: Peaceful Amulet, Heading to the North
Its daybreak.

Half past seven in the morning.

In the commercial district of the trading market, there was another long queue outside shop No. 2.

These survivors come here every morning.
Use points to purchase the staple food you need for the day.

It tastes best in the morning when it is freshly baked.

Shop No. 2 mainly sells corn tortillas, sweet potato tortillas, and multi-grain tortillas.

The selling price of corn tortillas and sweet potato pancakes is the same, 0.25 points each.

The baked biscuits are very solid and can basically satisfy an adult man's meal.

These cakes are made with a small amount of sugar, cooking oil, and some dried vegetables.
In addition, the selling price is extremely low, which has been well received by the majority of survivors.

It is also the main food for survivors in the current trading market.

Shop No. 2 has six windows, and five of them are now open.

The window was sealed with glass, with only a hole in the middle measuring about 30 cm x 30 cm.

Window No. 1.

After the man in front left,
Hong Lele hurried over, took out a white number tag from his pocket and handed it over.

"Hello, I'd like a corn tortilla and a sweet potato pancake, thank you."

The staff at the window picked up the number plate and handed it to the person next to him to deduct the corresponding points.

Then he picked up a tortilla and a potato pancake with a pair of tongs and pushed them against the window.

"There are no bags today, just take them."

Upon hearing this, Hong Lele had no choice but to reach out and take out a piece of cloth from her arms and wrap the two cakes.

"Ok."

The staff inside also deducted points and handed out Hong Lele's number plate.

"Total 0.5 points, balance 23.2 points. This is the list, keep it."

Hong Lele took the list receipt and number plate, confirmed the number on the receipt, nodded and said:

"OK, thanks."

Then she left with the receipt number tag in one hand and a tortilla wrapped in rags in the other.

The temperature has dropped a lot in recent days.

In the morning, the temperature was only around 10 degrees, which was a bit cold.

The tortillas were freshly baked and still warm. She put the tortillas in her arms, feeling the warmth. She had an indescribable sense of security and walked quickly towards the living area.

It's still early, the doors to the trading bazaar haven't opened yet, and construction on the site hasn't started yet.

But we have to gather and prepare at eight o'clock.

Father Hong Fu has not recovered since he fell and was injured at the construction site.

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Hong Fu broke a bone, so he still needs recuperation.

However, he was able to survive after falling from the construction site building, which is a blessing in disguise.

And because the accident happened on the construction site, Oil City waived their medical expenses.

Hong Fu was discharged from the hospital in the past two days, but his bones are still in the recovery period and he cannot return to work on the construction site.

Without a job, you will have no points and your savings will be depleted.

They didn't accumulate many points.
Staying in the trading market requires consuming points every day.

You need points to eat, drink and live, and the remaining points are getting less and less.

Hong Fu's inspector Zhang Shi felt sorry for the father and daughter, so he signed up Hong Lele for the buffer city construction and gave her a place.

When Hong Lele found out, she was overjoyed.

In the past, her father was her support. Now that her father is injured, she can also hold up the sky.

She walked hurriedly, having to deliver the tortillas to her father quickly, and then she had to rush to the square to gather together, and then go out of the city together to work at the buffer city wall construction site.

These two pieces of cake are for my father.

She has food provided at the construction site, and will distribute tortillas to the workers when they arrive at the square.

She took small and quick steps and returned to her residential area 7 minutes later.

"Good morning, Uncle Liu." Hong Lele saw Liu Shengsheng after returning to his residence.

Liu Shengsheng and his father Hong Fu are close friends. The last time his father was injured, when Oil City did not announce the exemption of their medical expenses, Uncle Liu took the initiative to take out all his points to help them.

It can be seen that a friend in need is a friend indeed.

What’s more, in this end times, it is even more precious and rare.

Liu Shengsheng just got up, and when he saw Hong Lele, he nodded and smiled:
"Are you buying biscuits for your dad again?"

"Yes, we have to go early, otherwise we will be late for work." Hong Lele put the pancake on the head of his father's bed.

Hong Fu was still sleeping and Hong Lele did not wake him up.

After she packed up briefly, she walked towards the square with Liu Shengsheng.

The building of the previous trading market has been completed, but other projects in the trading market have not yet been completed.

When Liu Shengsheng and Hong Lele arrived at the gathering point in the square, thousands of workers had already gathered in the square.

Several pickup trucks loaded with hot pancakes were at the front, distributing the pancakes to the workers.

Working on the construction site, two meals are provided.

One pancake is given before work and another pancake is given at noon.

After work in the evening, each of them will be given 0.5 to 1 point.

The points awarded vary depending on the type of work.

There are many types of jobs, such as carpenters, masons, steel workers, concrete workers, crane operators, electricians, mechanics, surveyors, waterproofers, scaffolders, handymen, etc.

For example, a job like a handyman usually only has 0.5 points.
For high-risk jobs like scaffolding, which requires standing at high places to build, the score is 0.8 points a day.

The jobs with the highest points usually require relatively high technical skills, which are generally beyond the capabilities of newcomers.

For example, the points obtained by a formwork worker or a crane operator are relatively high.

Hong Lele is a newcomer in the construction industry, so she can only start as a handyman and receive a minimum of 0.5 points per day.

However, Hong Lele is already very satisfied with this.

"Newcomers, come quickly to get your tortillas and leave the city in fifteen minutes," Ding Wu shouted with a loudspeaker.

Upon hearing this, Hong Lele hurried to the pickup truck to get the tortillas.

She held the hot tortillas and walked aside with Liu Shengsheng.

Eat the tortilla in small bites.

The tortillas were warm, and having a bite of something warm in the morning made her extremely satisfied.

Life is getting better.

She was so happy at this moment, like a little hamster, squinting her eyes when she smiled.

Among a group of rough men, she, a teenage girl, squinting her eyes and smiling, was like a ray of light.

She took a few bites, took a bottle of water from her small backpack, took a couple of sips, and then continued eating her tortilla.

In the misty morning, she had a beautiful vision of the future and a little happiness in her heart.

It has been so difficult along the way. With the death of her family, she is left with only her father.

When her father fell from a building at a construction site, her world collapsed.

Now that her father's injury has been treated, she can earn points through her own efforts and support her father, which makes her very grateful.

She was grateful to come to the trade fair and grateful to Oil City for the opportunity it gave her.

She is like a tenacious little grass in the storm, growing in the storm until the moment the sun comes out.

ding ding ding-

The iron rod struck the gong, echoing in the square.

Liu Shengsheng stuffed the tortilla into his mouth and said to Hong Lele:
"Le Le, I'm going over now. Be careful on the construction site."

"Okay, goodbye Uncle Liu." Hong Lele nodded.

She and Liu Shengsheng were not at the same construction site. Liu Shengsheng was still working at the trading market site, while she was going to the buffer city to build the wall.

Ding Wu struck the gong and asked them to line up and walk together to the main gate of the trading market.

More than 2,000 workers lined up and left the trading market earlier than other survivors who left the city.

When he arrived at the construction site, Hong Lele put on the white helmet he had received and followed the team leader to the east wall construction site.

Today we are still laying the foundation, and the foundation of the buffer city wall has reached ten meters.

Now that the excavation has been completed, the next step is to install the formwork, put in the tied steel bars and fix them with grouting concrete.

"Le Le, come with me later and help me fix the template." The team leader turned his head and said to her.

"Okay, team leader." Hong Lele nodded.

Perhaps it was because she was young, only sixteen or seventeen years old, and still a girl working on the construction site.

Therefore, the team leader took good care of her and often asked her to cooperate with him.

Under the gloomy sky, construction of the buffer city wall outside the trading bazaar started.

Ten minutes later, the tower crane was opened.

The sounds of various mechanical equipment operating could be heard on the construction site.

Oil City.

Li Yu opened the window and stretched his body.

call--

He stayed in the Oil City Trading Market for two or three days and had almost completed his inspection.

The most important thing is to dispatch people from the trading market back to the headquarters base. The candidates were finalized last night. The next step is to wait for Uncle San to send someone to send them back to the headquarters base.

After these two days of inspection, I am quite satisfied.

The oil wells in the oil city were operated in a very standardized manner, the business district of the trading market operated very well, which exceeded his expectations, and the defense of the trading market walls was also very systematic.
Except for Li Yuan encountering a drunkard last night, everything else was going well.

When Uncle San learned about this, he was quite angry.

The plan is to strengthen the operational management of the commercial area after Li Yu leaves to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Uncle San has always been confident in his management of the trading market, so he didn't tell Lao Huang and the others when Li Yu came.

As soon as Li Yu got off the plane, he began to inspect the trading market.

This means that the trading market he saw was the most real one, without any prior preparation.

Uncle San doesn’t like face-saving projects. If everything looks fake during the inspection, it would be better not to inspect at all.

So every time Li Yu came over, Uncle San would not tell the people below.

The room where Li Yu lives has two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and a bathroom.

When he wakes up in the morning, he exercises as a habit.

However, running was not very convenient in the oil city, so he did push-ups in the living room.

300 push-ups, 300 sit-ups, 300 squats.

He had an excellent physique and after doing all this, only a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

I took the towel and went to the bathroom.

I turned on the tap and tested the water temperature.

After a quick shower, he changed into clean combat clothes and went downstairs.

While eating breakfast, he said to his uncle:

"Uncle San, I'm going to the North today."

Uncle San was a little surprised, "Isn't it tomorrow? You've only been here for two days."

Li Yu shook his head and said:

"We have seen everything that needs to be inspected. Let's go to the North as soon as possible."

"Also, please arrange for the reinforcement workers that Uncle San will dispatch to the headquarters base as soon as possible. The headquarters is still waiting."

"Okay, we can set off today. It is estimated that these workers will arrive the day after tomorrow." Uncle San nodded.

If 2500 workers are to be transported solely by helicopters, at least dozens of helicopters will be needed to transport them simultaneously.

There are less than ten helicopters in Oil City, and their carrying capacity is limited.

It would be better to send people back by truck.

Moreover, these people all had their own luggage and parcels, and the helicopter couldn't fit so much stuff.

Finished eating.

At the helicopter pad, the relevant ground staff also checked the helicopter and filled it with fuel.

Before leaving, Li Yu took out a small sachet from the helicopter and handed it to his uncle.

"Uncle San, this is the amulet that grandma asked me to bring you. She told you to be careful when you are out there and to carry it with you to keep you safe."

Uncle San was stunned and took the square amulet from Li Yu.

"Where did your grandma get the amulet?" asked Uncle San.

Li Yu scratched his head and said awkwardly:
"Um, Sanqing Temple, didn't we build a Taoist temple for Qingxiao and his friends in the fourth outer city of our headquarters base? Grandma asked for it from there."

Uncle San didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and he hung the amulet around his neck, keeping it close to his skin.

"Very well, is your grandma feeling well?"

Li Yu nodded and said:
"It's pretty good. I play badminton every now and then. Now I've set up a marriage agency at the headquarters base and started acting as a matchmaker."

Uncle San was both amused and confused. Marriage agency? Matchmaker?
"The old lady can't sit still. It's good for her to have something to do and not think too much. It can also promote the population growth of the headquarters base. We should support her."

Li Yu nodded and smiled and said, "Yes, I think so too."

If the elderly don't take care of themselves and become busy, they will easily think too much and even trouble the younger generations.

"Ah."

"Uncle San, I'm leaving." Li Yu had nothing else to say. He nodded to his uncle and walked towards the helicopter.

A few minutes later.

Uncle San looked at the helicopter flying into the sky and touched his chest.

An alloy ID dog tag that has been worn for many years.
There is also a amulet that I just got.

It feels so good to feel warm in my heart.
