Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Li Yu, after listening to his father’s declaration that it would only take three days to finish the task, his face lit up with joy.

He then said:

”Okay, Dad, let’s start tomorrow because as you can see, the weather is getting colder by the day. It’s going to get even colder in a few days. The sooner we finish building, the sooner we won’t have to endure the cold. Once the weather gets too cold, it will be hard for everyone to work.”

”Okay,” replied Li Hongyuan.

”By the way,” Li Hongyuan seemed to remember something and suddenly added, ”Today I went down to the basement and checked on the crops, they are growing well, but I’ve been running the heater continuously, and we use it daily. I’m a bit worried about the energy issue. I wonder if the solar power is sufficient?”

”We have 10 acres of photovoltaic energy on the mountaintop, plus the solar panels on the roof. From what I see, it’s still sufficient. The sunlight has been strong recently, enough for our needs,” Li Yu replied.

Hearing Li Yu’s response, Li Hongyuan put aside his worries and nodded in agreement.

Even though there are many storage batteries, having them filled and not using the leftover power would be wasteful.

For now, it seems that the electricity situation is sustainable, but if we ever run short of power, we could simply make do by sleeping in the basement. After all, maintaining the plantation in the basement is a must!

...

The cold wind howls, growing colder by the day.

In this environment, many animals enter hibernation, but this winter seems colder than previous ones.

The three puppies found on the road are now housed in the plantation basement.

It’s inevitable since it’s too cold outside now; even humans shiver, let alone the newborn puppies.

Nourished with milk powder, these young wolf puppies do nothing but sleep, and sleep.

Many people, in an effort to save electricity, frequently stay down in the warm plantation, and often play with the puppies.

After a few days, the puppies seem to have gotten familiar with their surroundings, allowing people to cuddle and hug them as they continue to sleep soundly.

The most beloved among them is Cui Hua, with its four white legs and shy nature, often hiding behind its two brothers.

But it is this very demeanor that makes it the most endearing.

Li Yu also often comes down to play with them, and oddly enough, these past few days, although Li Yuan has been feeding them daily, for some reason, whenever the puppies smell Li Yu approaching, they become particularly lively.

This irritates Li Yuan.

But then, being licked by their tender little tongues softens any hard feelings, and at least for now, other than Li Yu.

Well, and Yutong, it’s her, Li Yuan, that the puppies show the best attitude towards.

Keep it up!

Li Yuan stroked the puppies’ heads, feeling the warm, smooth fur, and her face broke into a smile.

There’s this principle, the three Bs (beautiful, beast, baby), commonly known.

In many scenes, the presence of these three elements always gathers attention and affection, it’s instinctual.

So, many people, when they see a baby, have an indescribable feeling and speak in unintentionally gentler tones.

And men, when they see a beautiful woman, can’t help but look; it’s human nature.

Including adorable pets, seeing them makes you want to own them, to stroke them; it’s also instinctual.

Most people, love beautiful things.

...

Ding Jiu, Wang Cheng, and the others are veteran construction workers, so for them, building a duty room was a minor case. The day after Li Yu proposed the suggestion, Li Hongyuan led them to start construction.

There was still plenty of cement in the warehouse, but due to the rapid drop in temperature, the cement had hardened somewhat.

The current temperature had already dropped to around two to three degrees. The drawn water would easily solidify after being left out for a while, so they often heated some water and poured it into the mixer.

The construction modules were quickly set up, then they tied the rebar and poured the cement, all done at a fast pace.

The sun had just risen in the morning and they worked until the sun set in the evening.

They could have worked in the evenings as well, with huge searchlights that could illuminate everything, but it was just too cold at night, dropping to minus ten degrees or more compared to the daytime.

This was unbearable for everyone, so they worked during the day instead.

Because the temperature had dropped so quickly recently, Li Yu wanted to finish the construction sooner. By finishing a day earlier, everyone could avoid the cold a day sooner, so in addition to Ding Jiu and a few others, he also let some other people from the base help out.

With many hands making light work, the construction speed increased a lot.

Recently, the sun has been very bright and glaring. It’s good for the newly built duty room to be exposed under the scorching sun, making it more stable.

Days passed. The duty room was now free of its molds and very stable.

Li Yu and his team also adjusted the positions of the surveillance cameras to cover all angles, monitoring every movement outside the walls, and they also connected heating to the duty room.

After they finished constructing these four duty rooms, everyone looked at the standing structures with a sense of pride in their hearts.

The base started from a height of 6 meters and gradually improved, slowly increasing its height to now over ten meters.

They increased its thickness and made the base more and more fortified.

They also added... (Weng City)

Every time they made the base stronger and more powerful, they felt a sense of pride.

.....

The temperature was indeed dropping degree by degree.

The northern wind bent the white grass.

In these last few days, besides the temperatures dropping to around minus seven or eight degrees, the winds were blowing stronger and stronger.

At times like this, those staying in the duty rooms felt extremely fortunate; in this kind of weather, they didn’t want to stay outside for even a second.

It was simply too cold.

In the main gate duty room, Third Uncle pulled out an orange, peeled it, and the aroma filled the whole duty room. Although the duty room was warm, it was very dry. A few days ago, Tianlong had a nosebleed in the duty room from the heat.

Seeing the youngster next to him looking at him eat the orange, Third Uncle took another orange from his pocket and tossed it over: ”Why didn’t you go on duty with your dad?”

The youngster caught the orange and said somewhat fearfully, ”My dad always scolds me. I said I wanted to go on duty with him, and he said that was fine but advised me to learn more from you.”

Third Uncle, biting into the orange, enjoyed the sweet fruit exploding on his taste buds, akin to drinking a glass of ice-cold soda in the desert, in the dry heated room.

”You, your dad’s not simple, eh... So what do you want to learn?”

”I want to learn how to kill zombies more quickly and efficiently, and how to defeat enemies...” The youngster expressed his strong desire to learn.

He too wanted to become stronger, to better protect his family!
