Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

In the vast and vast wilderness, the golden crops have reached harvest time, and there are people moving everywhere. In just six months, the grassland has turned into a large planting land with no visible edges.

Moreover, this kind of reclamation is still continuing, and there is sufficient rain and sunshine. This is a gift from God for the current humans on this grassland.

The sun has not disappeared as some people predicted. Instead, the light has become much stronger every day. Many people who have cultivated fields have begun to stock up on food.

Some of the timber in the nearby mountain forests has almost been reclaimed. Although Jed asked everyone not to exploit it excessively, many people want to have a home instead of joining a group to stay warm in the cold wind every night.

Some wooden houses have been erected on the edge of farmland, and the number is increasing every day. The nearby mountain forests have become bare.

In the distance, to the east of the lake, you can vaguely see some buildings built on the mountain. There is a pass into the mountain, but now the pass has been built with fortifications. Someone once wanted to enter from that place. There were also bloody conflicts between Shanlin and the people in the pass.

The forces in that pass belong to Allen and the others. They have built a large number of defenses. It is impossible to pass through from other places. Many people are clamoring to capture the fortress, but Jed time and time again and several other gang leaders stopped him.

What everyone needs now is peace. They must build some reservoirs so that water can be effectively stored and people will not have problems with water use in the future.

Several large groups have begun to cooperate and plan to build some reservoirs along the fields.

Now there are more than a million people on the entire grassland, and people coming up from below are still coming in a steady stream every day. Many people who come up either continue to walk to areas that have not yet been cultivated, to reclaim land, or they stay and become a Landowner's workers.

Most people chose to stay because they could no longer walk here. Some people planned to recuperate for a while and cultivate their own land.

Many people are now working on farmland from dawn to dusk. This has become the most important thing on this land, because everyone knows that only by continuously storing food can they cope with all crises.

This place now has a huge advantage. The climate change is no longer obvious. You can choose to sow at any time, and the temperature difference between night and day will not be too big.

Some people are already planning to go back to the past cities to dismantle some useful things and transport them here.

The two cities below have been covered in darkness. Except for some gangs who still have a large amount of supplies, other ordinary people have already arrived.

Fortunately, there are also good technicians among the people who came here. They have transformed some electric-driven cars. Several gangs plan to wait until the number of cars is about the same to go to the city below and transport some usable things back.

In the eyes of most people, this grassland will definitely be able to gather into a large city and become their last refuge as humans.

Jed is having a meeting with the leaders of several large gangs. All parties are talking about some issues. If there are any problems now, they will discuss and deal with them together. Everyone is very clear that they must not create conflicts here.

"I think we should send some people each and capture the fortress. You can get a lot of things from that place by entering the mountains and forests. Someone noticed that they seemed to have discovered coal in the mountains."

A leader reminded, and Wang Quan on the side laughed.

"Such a fortress, even with heavy firepower, is difficult to capture. Once we launch an attack, it will cause irreparable consequences."

Several other leaders also nodded in agreement with Wang Quan's words. It is true that resources are abundant now, and there is no need to have any conflict with them. Both parties are well and can trade certain goods. The supplies are now very sufficient.

They have not seen each other for more than ten days. Meeting now is more troublesome because 1 million people are scattered across a 50-kilometer grassland, which is still expanding. They can only use electric-powered motorcycles to travel every month. Come here for a meeting.

"Now let's discuss it carefully and go to the city below to look for supplies."

Jed said, this is the top priority today. Everything is almost ready. They will start taking action in a few days, because according to people who came here, there were many people in the city where Jed and the others were. The gang still occupies the place, and they have also transformed the farmland, using lights instead of sunlight, and they can still grow something.

It's much better in the city than in this deserted grassland. They won't come up for the time being, but now they have to be careful. Jade also heard something from many people who came up. The people in those gangs are becoming more and more... The more cruel.

Many people were killed for no reason. Ordinary people could not compete with them. In the end, many people escaped.

It is relatively difficult to obtain some materials in the city. It is very likely that the gangs will conflict, but it is impossible not to go. Many facilities require some materials. If they do not obtain them, they want to build a power generation plant in the future. The idea of ​​a factory is empty.

There were some electrical engineers among the people who came over. They observed the current situation and found that they could only use manpower to generate electricity, so they made some simple foot-operated and man-pulled power generation devices, and then relied on the huge manpower here to generate electricity. is the most realistic.

With sufficient electric energy, many current problems can be solved, the most important of which is transportation.

Jed looked at everyone and knew that they were still hesitating, because if they sent people there, some people might be lost and some ammunition would be consumed. Weapons are the most reasonable thing on this grassland.

"I think we sent out 30 people on each side, mainly to protect the technical staff and help them bring back the supplies they need."

Jade suggested. Some of the leaders in the room nodded, but some felt that it was a bit unreliable. For such a large-scale operation, once people in the city are close to it, they will definitely take action first.

"I think we can stop when we are close to the city, and then sneak into the city quietly and collect some things secretly. After all, there are a lot less people in the city now, and it is impossible for them to touch some areas on the edge of the city. "

Wang Quan spoke again, and after final discussion, everyone nodded. It was urgent to build a human-powered power plant now.

"There is one more thing I hope you can think about carefully. I think it will not work if this continues. We work hard day and night to build something and maintain public security, but we get nothing. And those who have reclaimed the land are Live a comfortable life, and many times they are not even willing to ask them to help.”

Jed nodded. This is indeed a problem, and it has happened many times recently. Jed originally wanted people within his management to help with something, but very few people responded. Many people simply took care of farmland and were unavailable. They refused for some reason, but when they encountered a problem, they would just gather together and come to Jade and the others and ask them to find a solution.

Many leaders have said similar things. Although this land has harvested abundant food, it is like a pile of loose sand and it is difficult to establish an effective political power.

"When we are needed, we must be there. When we are not needed, we are ignored. What is the meaning of this?"

One of the leaders said angrily. The other leaders were all talking about their own affairs. Many people were disobedient. This is the biggest problem at the moment. If this problem continues to develop, extremely serious problems will arise in this land. .

Listening to what the leaders said, Jade couldn't help but think of what Allen said. He actually knew that there was no so-called rationality in a society with a certain number of people, especially in such an apocalyptic world.

In order to clearly demarcate parts of their fields, some people not only mark the fields, but even build their own fences. Many of them often get into disputes because of problems that arise during harvesting.

Because some land was jointly cultivated, some people felt that the other party had contributed less, and a lot of disputes arose. In desperation, Jed could only take people there and distribute the jointly cultivated land equally among individuals.

Even so, there is still no way to calm down the dispute. It is impossible to clean up this situation. Absolutely tough measures are required. But even so, it may return to the old way after a while.

As the number of weapons becomes increasingly scarce and food production increases, the deterrent effect of these gangs on nearby people will only become less and less, and a new round of large and small gangs will form.

Because the people who can come here have come all the way through blood, and they all understand that except for themselves and their relatives around them, others cannot believe this truth.

"Let's implement the plan first, and we will discuss other issues after the power plant is established."

Jade said, everyone stood up, and they all had to hurry up and prepare people to find supplies as soon as possible.

As the sun gradually set, Allen sat quietly on an observation deck, looking at the fields in the distance with a telescope. Next to him was a beautiful girl wearing a skirt with a swollen belly. This was Allen's cousin. Now She became Allen's wife.

Dozens of people in the family were very supportive. Allen smiled and picked up a piece of fruit and put it in his mouth. Although it was a bit sour, it was good to eat fruit at such a time.

A small society headed by Allen has been formed here. He is the king here. Everyone believes in all his decisions, and Allen's predictions are always correct. Some of his subordinates go to the farmland to exchange crop seeds with others. We came back and reported that many problems have arisen below.

In the past six months, Allen has basically prioritized the construction of fortifications. Sure enough, the several conflicts that broke out before relied on strong fortifications to prevent people below from entering. Allen knows very well that everything now is just a beautiful fantasy. It is unknown why the sun above the head has not disappeared, but chaos will definitely occur before the sun disappears.

People who come to this grassland come from different countries and different beliefs. It is very easy for them to conflict because of different customs and living habits. Conflicts will happen sooner or later. Even language is a barrier for them, making it difficult to communicate effectively.

"It's getting dark and the weather is cold. Let's go back to the house and rest."

His wife stood up with a smile, and Allen grabbed the fur coat on the side and put it on her.

Now Allen is a little scared, because there are no medical conditions here, and if there is a problem with his wife during delivery, there is nothing they can do.

Allen asked the doctors here and found that it was almost impossible to get what he needed. However, Allen did not intend to sit still and wait for death. He had always taken precautions, so Allen planned to get some of the things the doctors said for the sake of his children. Peace comes.

"It should be fine, don't worry."

His wife comforted her, and Allen smiled, hugged her and kissed her cheek affectionately.

"It's not that it's okay, it's that when something happens, it's too late. I'll go out and get everything you need. You can rest assured at home."

Allen plans to leave tonight. He has to go to the city below and get all the equipment the doctors need from the hospital. This is not only for the safety of his wife and children. In the past six months, some people have still gotten sick, and one person has died. .

No one can guarantee that he will not get sick all the time. Under such harsh conditions, getting sick means death.

After dinner, Allen and the others opened a small opening and drove a truck and several motorcycles to leave the fortress. Allen only brought 30 people, including a doctor.

Their fortress is facing some farmland, but there is a road that leads directly to the farmland. They have come out to trade several times, so no one felt anything wrong after their car drove past.

Half an hour later, Allen drove the car onto the highway. Now that the bumpiness had disappeared, he was very aware of Jed and their recent movements, because Allen still had some undercover agents on their side. He needed to get everything before they could get supplies, and then he needed to meet his old friends in the city.

The car drove onto the road smoothly, and Allen breathed a sigh of relief. If you want to get something, you need to exchange it with something.

Allen understands this truth better than anyone else, so he will first try to talk to those people in the city, and then get everything he needs, and then return to his fortress. As long as he ensures medical treatment, he will be able to stay temporarily in the next few years. no need to worry.

What they need are medical equipment. As for medicines, some doctors are already trying to make them. Even antibiotics, doctors are starting to think of ways to make them.

As long as they obtain medical equipment, their fortress will be impregnable in the future and they will be able to withstand the coming era of chaos.
