Acai's Sky

Chapter 361: Digging Underground Transportation...

Yucheng

I don’t know when it started, but the government began to add external packaging to the facades of all large facilities and buildings, that is, to install exterior walls.

The operation first started from major reserve warehouses, followed by major wholesale markets, supermarkets and other important places.

The work is carried out in two shifts around the clock to ensure that the project will not be stopped because of the staff's rest.

Eventually, the work expanded to schools, residential areas, and government office buildings.

Father Tong felt unhappy when he saw his 200-square-meter garden being covered up, but he could do nothing about it.

So he hurriedly bought an indoor plant growth light and installed it, hoping to ensure the normal growth of the plants.

When the child's mother, Ms. Gao, saw this scene, she couldn't help laughing: "You've never been so positive. You finally became young and energetic, but now you're blocked from the sunlight. Haha..."

Tong's father rolled his eyes at her and muttered to himself, "This is a national act, who dares to object? If he dares to speak out, the first person to be taught a lesson will definitely be our righteous civil servant!"

Thinking of how his wife had twisted his fingers before, and the pain he still remembers, Mr. Tong couldn't help but shudder.

Aunt Qiu stood at the door directing the porters to continuously carry various supplies into the house.

She wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Put it down gently, don't break it!"

Mother Tong brought a glass of water and handed it to Aunt Qiu, gently advising her, "Aunt Qiu, that's enough. Come and rest your feet and drink some water."

Aunt Qiu took the cup and drank it all, then wiped the sweat off her face with her hand, shook her head and said:

"This is the last time we'll make such a large purchase. There will be purchase limits starting tomorrow, so we have to buy more." After saying that, he turned around and was about to go out again.

Tong's mother quickly stood up and pulled Aunt Qiu to sit on the sofa. She took a pear and stuffed it into her hand:

"Eat some fruit first, don't worry. Look, the room downstairs and the garage are already full. There's really no need to worry too much!"

Aunt Qiu took a bite of the pear and frowned. "How can I not be anxious? In this extreme heat, many things will spoil. Stocking up now, while there are no purchase restrictions, can slow down the spoilage."

Mother Tong smiled and pointed at the kitchen. "There are two double-door refrigerators, two freezers, and a dozen freezers in the garage. They're all full. The apocalypse still has a few months to go. Don't be too anxious, don't be too tired!"

Tong's father smiled and comforted him, "The country will definitely have countermeasures, don't worry. I heard that they will first repackage the major warehouses and storage depots to slow down the rate of decay."

When I went to buy the grow lights, I heard someone say that the country is now vigorously promoting the construction of greenhouses on farmland and installing insulation materials on the exterior walls.

Tong's mother also nodded. "With the government's intervention, many problems will be solved. This exterior wall can withstand ±120 degrees. We have tested it!"

Aunt Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm afraid! If there were no such exterior wall, how would ordinary people like us survive?"

Tong's father agreed with Aunt Qiu's words, "When has the country ever demonstrated the superiority of its social system? It's in the face of a disaster of this magnitude."

"Tsk, those trolls abroad are still constantly attacking our country, saying that our country is disrupting the world."

Ms. Gao curled her lips and said, "Look at those people on the self-media who are doing things for themselves and taking advantage of the opportunity to make money. They have all been locked up in the small black room!"

Aunt Qiu slapped her thigh and said, "That's right, they deserve it. The country is already furious, and they're still joining in the chaos."

"Ringling..."

Tong’s father’s phone call.

"Okay, I'll be there soon."

He turned to Ms. Gao, the child's mother, and said, "I'm going to the cold drink factory. The exterior walls there have all been installed."

Tong's mother sighed, "Your newly built large cold storage was also expropriated by the state?"

Tong's father put on his clothes and was changing his shoes.

"That's right! We just built ten new cold storage facilities. We were planning to add some more cold chain storage facilities, but now they've all been handed over to the government!"

Tong's mother handed him the handbag and said, "Didn't the government compensate you for installing the exterior wall earlier? Stop nagging."

...

Ah Cai sat blankly in the flower shop, watching the countless customers coming and going to buy flowers. This was the first time she saw people scrambling to buy flowers.

Tong Jiawu explained with a smile, "Everyone's homes are starting to install exterior walls, and the glass is covered. The hot season is about to begin, and who wouldn't want to have a few more pots of green plants at home?"

Ah Cai casually used the skill [Growth of All Things] to give birth to the small seedlings in the flower pots in front of her, making them full of vitality.

Tong Jiashan suddenly remembered Ah Cai's pet and asked with concern, "Is the little raccoon dog back? I prepared a special meal for it!"

Ah Cai shook her head helplessly and replied, "It's digging underground fortifications. How can it come back so soon? We are far away from Qinghua Taoist Temple."

Tong Shiqi brought Ah Cai a fruit platter and said with a smile, "That's right. They even built the underground fortifications into four rows of roads, saying that it should be more impressive."

After hearing this, Acai couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Tong Jiawu also laughed, "Exactly. It's just an underground fortification, and you're trying to make it look so grand. But at this rate, maybe in two months, the little raccoon dog will have dug through the entire country..."

Tong Jiashan stopped her from continuing, "There's a subway. We don't need our little raccoon dog to dig underground tunnels across the country."

Ah Cai nodded and said, "Little Raccoon has done a great job this time, digging the underground tunnel every day these past few days."

Tong Jiayuan walked in.

Ah Cai waved her hand at him, "I haven't seen Ah Yuan recently, what have you been busy with?"

Tong Jiayuan sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Guide them in the production of exterior wall materials, otherwise how can Yucheng be the first to install it!"

Ah Cai also sighed, "The strength of the country cannot be compared with one or two wealthy businessmen."

"Only those in foreign countries that have a good relationship with us will listen to our advice and follow us in pretending to be an exterior wall." Tong Jiawu said as he watched the news on the tablet.

Tong Shiqi handed over a space button.

Ah Cai looked stunned, "Are we still stockpiling supplies?"

Tong Shiqi nodded and continued, "These are all supplies prepared for the generals of Qinghua Taoist Temple. Although they can enter the [Ziyu Jiangshan] space, they still need some personal supplies."

Tong Shishan echoed, "That's right. We've already dug our underground fortifications to the large supermarket closest to the Qinghua Taoist Temple, making it easier for them to obtain supplies."

Ah Cai rubbed her chin while thinking, and suddenly offered a suggestion: "What if we connected the underground fortifications of major supermarkets to the major subway stations? This would make it more convenient to transport and allocate supplies."

Tong Jiayuan thought the idea made sense, but he noted with concern: "This plan is feasible, but first the subway stations must be reinforced to cope with possible earthquakes."

Ah Cai suddenly had an idea and took out the remaining eight hundred or so [Petrification and Stiffness] talismans from her pocket and said:

"You can use these talismans to speed up the solidification process and prevent earthquakes. They can solidify a large area. We only need a dozen of them to solidify the entire urban area of ​​Yucheng."

Tong Jiayuan took all the talismans and said excitedly, "Great! Once the Golden Raccoon has finished excavating all the underground fortifications, we can directly carry out the solidification operation on the entire city."
