Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 23 Reserve Grain and Reserve Pork
The interview lasted until 12 o'clock in the evening. There were more than 500 people, and finally 300 passed the interview and obtained the qualification to awaken special powers. Those who were eliminated were somewhat puzzled. They felt that there was nothing wrong with their answers. They clearly said that they would be as loyal as dogs?
Is it because what he said is too false and empty?
Or is it that I haven't shown my true side in the apocalypse?
But...during an interview, shouldn't you praise yourself in a positive way? Even if you can't do what you say.
The more than 200 people who were eliminated fell into endless regret, but... they didn't figure out what went wrong.
Next, Shen Jin spent 3,000 energy crystal cores to exchange for 300 bottles of [Primary Superpower Awakening Potion] in the store. Home No. 1, tonight, 300 new extraordinary people were added!
These people have undergone at least one month of military training, and their willpower and combat proficiency are much stronger than ordinary people. Their instructors not only taught them to stand at attention and at ease, but also taught them all their experience and skills in fighting zombies. These people can follow several teams to clean up the zombies tomorrow.
However... the equipment for these 300 people gave Shen Jin a headache. "It seems... I need to build another smelting furnace and get 10 strong men to cast the weapons and armor for these 300 people overnight..."
After the 300 people finished experimenting with their superpowers, Shen Jin asked them to try out six kinds of weapons and each choose one as their main weapon. After Shen Jin finished the statistics, he asked Lao Wang to find 10 temporary workers to go to his newly built large-scale [Craftsman Soul Smelting Furnace], take [Sword Blade Mold], [Bow Arm Mold], [Large Plate Mold], [Helmet Base]... and start casting. Lao Wang took the initiative to ask for supervision. He wanted to ensure that all the tools and weapons made were the same as the number on the form to prevent these people from making mistakes in the number. Shen Jin was very satisfied with Lao Wang's attitude of taking the initiative to take on things.
the next day.
Shen Jin assembled 300 sets of Craftsman's Soul weapons, Craftsman's Soul tools, and Craftsman's Soul three-piece sets.
Then he discovered that there was not much of one material left, [leather]
The Artisan Soul backpack, gloves, and belt all require this material. Although Shen Jin used to collect whatever he saw, the reserves of [leather] are really limited. Most of what he has now are extracted from various leather clothes. "It seems... I have to ask them to pay more attention to getting some leather clothes when they go out in the future. The raw materials of [leather]... maybe the clothing factory should have more?"
Shen Jin thought about the materials he needed and made a list. At this time, 465 extraordinary people had gathered in front of the villa. They were divided into 6 teams. The teams led by 5 team leaders each added 50 new members, expanding to 70 people. The personal guards led by Yang Ao also increased by 50 people, expanding to 115 people.
Everyone gathered today to go out and do something big, to receive the reserve food and... reserve frozen pork given by Tianluodiwang!
Yesterday, when Abin came to install the military satellite signal receiving device, he told Shen Jin the addresses of Q City's central reserve grain and central reserve pork. Now that No. 1 Home is the only official in Q City, it is natural for them to get this batch of supplies. The local governments can quickly gather survivors and maintain their combat effectiveness, all relying on the central reserve grain system that was implemented long before the end of the world. The central reserve grain refers to the grain and edible oil reserved by the government for regulating the total supply and demand of grain in the country, stabilizing the grain market, and responding to major natural disasters or other emergencies. If all are mobilized, it will be enough for the people of the whole country to eat for at least 2 years.
When there is no crisis, it can control food prices and prevent foreign food blockades. When a major crisis occurs, it becomes the lifeline of the entire country.
And thanks to current scientific and technological technologies, electronic temperature measurement, mechanical ventilation, internal circulation temperature control, and regular rotation of food, the reserve grain can be kept fresh enough and can be used at any time.
Except for the grain reserve depots in some large cities which are relatively conspicuous, each place has its own grain reserve depot, which usually has little presence. Some are even contracted out to private enterprises, and the locals may not know where they are. In Q City, a third-tier tourist city, the central grain reserve warehouse was contracted out to a private company called Jin'an Commerce, located in a factory area in the economic development zone.
If it weren't for the dragnet that retrieved the grain warehouse data, Shen Jin really had never heard of this place. Shen Jin had already searched for the central reserve grain on some offline maps on his mobile phone, but all he found were logistics reserve warehouses and grain and oil industry companies. He didn't find this batch of reserve grain at all, but he did get a bunch of other miscellaneous gadgets. Among them, the logistics reserve warehouse contained a whole warehouse of logistics express. Shen Jin emptied that place, and now there are still dozens of [boxes] of logistics packages in his warehouse that have not been opened. This thing can be used as a blind box to play with. Whenever you are in a bad mood, you can open one. Who knows what interesting things you can open. Recently, he is going to open such a courier (see this chapter →)
I don’t know what’s inside, it’s really exciting!
"Come up in order of team to receive your equipment!"
Behind Shen Jin were 16 large baskets filled with standard equipment for the extraordinary people.
They were: gloves, backpack, belt, full set of Craftsman's armor, broadsword, longsword, rapier, frying pan, battle badge, shortbow, arrows, pickaxe, shovel, electric wrench, and rechargeable battery.
The activation of the [Craftsman Soul Module] allows Shen Jin to arm all the extraordinary people under his command to the teeth.
Everyone began to collect their own portions in an orderly manner, and then went to the side to dress neatly.
Shen Jin called over the six captains and gave each of them a list of materials, which listed the materials that needed to be collected recently, [various metals, leather, sugar cane, sponges, zombies, slime ]
"Brother Jin, I understand the first two items, and I can use them to build equipment, but the latter ones feel more and more... outrageous?"
"Brother Jin, do you want to eat sugar cane? Speaking of which... this stuff doesn't grow in our north, so it's probably hard to find a few!"
"Sponge? That's easy to get. There should be plenty in the mattress!"
"Good fellow! Brother Jin, in your eyes, zombies are a kind of...material?"
"Slime??? Brother Jin, are you serious? Isn't this a little monster in the game? This is outrageous. It's outrageous to open the door. It's outrageous!"
Everyone complained about Shen Jin's list of materials, "Just execute it well, the mountain man has his own wonderful uses~!"
Shen Jin forgave their ignorance. After all... they didn't have a system either. Then Shen Jin gave each of them a [Traveler's Wing]. This thing was too precious. One [Ender Pearl] could only make one, and it only had a durability of 500. Therefore, it could not be widely used for the time being and could only be given to the captain for emergency use.
"You must use it sparingly. This thing can only be used 500 times. Don't use it to show off!"
"I understand. I'll put it at the bottom of the backpack and press it down." Yang Ao took it with a smile.
"I understand, Brother Jin, but I feel that I shouldn't always rely on these external things. The ability to control my own body is the most important..."
Meng San put it on with a nonchalant look on his face, and after testing the effect twice, he said: "Hmm? Really good!"
Li Zhe: "Boss, you've been giving birth like a sow lately...very prolific!"
Wu Yong: "Hey, that's not right! Brother Jin, this is like an old sow wearing a bra, one set after another!"
Qi Tong smiled and put the package away. The look in her eyes as she looked at Shen Jin gradually became more admiring.
After being armed, the extraordinary people were more powerful than before. Although they were still standing there, a mysterious aura surrounded the formation. The equipment on their bodies seemed to have been infused with souls by a great craftsman. "Let's go, target the development zone!"
At Shen Jin's command, everyone started to set off!
Among them, 20 extraordinary people broke away from the team. They are the guards of the east and west gates .
