My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1473

[1464. Chapter 1441: Born in adversity, die in comfort!]

Not counting the small courtyard outside which is nearly 20 square meters and full of flowers and plants, the total area of the three rooms alone is more than 80 square meters, which is enough for a family of five to enjoy a spacious and comfortable life.

Of course, this preferential treatment did not come out of thin air. There are reasons behind it that no one can refute.

Uncle Li is an old resident.

The real old residents!
They were the people that Soma first rescued from the saltpeter mine.

From the founding of Candlelight Camp, to the growth of Tianyuan Camp, and then to the prosperity of Tianyuan Territory in the New World, Uncle Li and his family have witnessed every important development process of the territory and have contributed a lot of labor from beginning to end. No one can find fault with such treatment.

However, despite such favorable conditions, the Li family has recently been shrouded in an atmosphere of disharmony.

At night, quarrels would break out one after another, so much so that Uncle Li would rather spend the night in the car than step into the house.

But today, Uncle Li seemed to have figured something out.

As he walked into the town, familiar faces greeted him from time to time along the way. Uncle Li responded to each of them with a warm smile. His calmness was completely different from his previous avoidance out of fear of embarrassment.

When he arrived at his yard, he did not hesitate and linger as usual to prepare himself mentally. Instead, he pushed open the door without hesitation and stepped into this home that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

It was still drizzling, and before Uncle Li entered the house, he took off his raincoat, gently shook off the water droplets on it, put on rain boots, and then slowly walked into the main house.

The atmosphere in the entire Li family was as if shrouded by a thick dark cloud, which was so depressing that it made people feel breathless, and it seemed as if a downpour would break out at any time.

Uncle Li’s return was like a signal gun that triggered a storm. In an instant, the originally depressing atmosphere in the house was completely broken, and the rumbling sound of quarrels rang out like thunder.

“Old man, it’s been half a month. When will you figure it out?”

A young man who looked 70% similar to Uncle Li heard the noise in the house, walked out quickly from the side room, and shouted to Uncle Li with a bit of anxiety and dissatisfaction.

“Opportunities don’t wait. There are so many people out there scrambling to charter a boat. I finally applied for a spot with Brother Cai. It’s fine if you don’t support me financially, but you can’t just withhold my ID and stop me from going out, right?”

“Ah Huan, how can you talk to your father like that?” A woman with a haggard face followed the young man out of the house and scolded him, “Your father doesn’t let you go out because he’s worried that you’ll die outside. Do you think he’s afraid that you’ll make a lot of money?”

“Everyone understands this. I haven’t even left yet, but you guys are already cursing me to die out there. Does that mean I can’t go anywhere in my life?”

Li Huan stubbornly retorted, “We can still live here because the mayor and the lord remember our contributions. If they only want to live off their old capital and welfare, we will have no reason to object if they take our house away.”

The woman let out a long sigh. Every time the child would use the same excuse to refute them, but they were unable to refute it.

This is a fact.

There are indeed some old residents who wanted to show off by relying on their past achievements and were sent to the new area to help with construction.

“Your father and I don’t care whether this house is there or not. As long as our family is safe, we are willing to move to the new district and squeeze into public housing with others.” The woman’s tone was full of helplessness and compromise.

“That’s what you want, but I don’t.” Li Huan insisted.

“What era is this? This is a wasteland. You still want us to live according to your wishes. Have you ever thought about whether we are willing?”

“That’s enough.” Uncle Li interrupted Li Huan with full energy.

He stood up, touched the cabinet next to him, and pulled out a palm-sized card – it was Li Huan’s ID card.

“Here is your ID card. Take it.”

“Ah? You agree?”

Li Huan originally thought that his “Long March” would have to continue for another month or two, and he hadn’t thought of succeeding today at all. He didn’t expect the card to be handed to him so easily, which made him feel quite unreal.

“If you want to leave, go ahead. I won’t give you a penny. You have to figure it out on your own.”

“Hey, just give it to me. I won’t spend your money. But I can apply for a subsidized loan in the territory.”

Li Huan took the card happily. For a moment, he no longer cared why his stubborn old father had such a big change. His mind was filled with the stars and the sea and the adventure that was about to begin.

Recently, the territory has been establishing a cross-plate caravan. As long as you are qualified and have a standard ship, you can join the entourage and bring the goods produced in the Tianyuan territory to other territories.

During this period, not only will there be fleet protection, but the territory will only take 30% of the profits.

It can be said that as long as you have the courage to participate, this is a business that is sure to make money.

As long as you work for half a year, it won’t be a problem to open a factory in the new district. Such an opportunity is undoubtedly very attractive to young people like Li Huan.

“Old Li, you…” The woman was still a little unresponsive as she watched Li Huan leave happily.

“Guixiang, the child has grown up and has become independent. It’s useless for us to control him.”

Uncle Li picked up the water cup and took a sip of tea.

“But” Guixiang wanted to say something else, but the door of the side room was pushed open again.

It was a girl, who looked to be around 27 or 28 years old.

“Dad, since you’ve agreed to Li Huan going out to sea, you have to agree to my business too. If you want to marry, go ahead. I won’t marry that nerd and live a stable life with him forever.”

“You stupid kid, you’re still calling me a nerd? I’m a serious researcher at the research institute, earning hundreds of copper coins every month. Isn’t it good to have a stable life?”

Guixiang has a headache.

She knew that among the three children in the family, if one agreed to one, the other would definitely be dissatisfied.

In this case, you either have to disagree with everything or agree with everything.

“What’s wrong with the researcher? He wants to live a stable life, but I’m not that kind of person.”

The girl’s personality is very similar to Li Huan’s, she also has an adventurous personality and is not willing to live a stable life.

“Besides, my brother and I have already agreed that if he gets a boat, I will help him sell the goods, and he will give me a share of the money, and I will find a partner myself!”

“Okay, find it yourself.”

Uncle Li seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. He stood up again and took out an ID card from the cabinet.

There was a photo of the girl on the card, with the words “Li Ming Jiao” written below.

“Old Li, you…” Guixiang was dumbfounded when she saw her daughter happily running to find Li Huan with her ID card.

At this moment, he even suspected that the man in front of him might have taken the wrong medicine.

This is not a big deal, why is he like a different person today? ? ?
“Dad”

The door opened again, but this time, before the figure who rushed out could say anything, Uncle Li raised his hand.

A card was thrown over and caught by the figure.

“Go ahead. You all want to go out and explore the world with your brother. An old man like me can stop you temporarily, but I can’t stop you forever.”

“Hey, why didn’t you just agree to us earlier? Maybe we’d make a lot of money and let you live in a large yard of several hundred square meters.”

The person who spoke was a boy who had just reached adulthood, named Li Xun.

None of the three children in the family is safe, as they all want to make a big move in the wasteland.

Uncle Li sighed, and only when he and Guixiang were left in the room did a trace of fatigue appear on his face.

“I have finally figured it out today. The fact that we have the treatment we have today and the territory has developed to this point cannot be achieved without the contributions of some people. Why can someone else, you, or me, die outside, but not them?”

“If everyone in this territory is afraid of death and wants stability, who would be willing to stand before us when disaster strikes?”

“Lao Li, you can’t say that. Those people are…”

Guixiang didn’t finish her words and fell silent.

She originally wanted to say that those people rushed forward for their own interests, otherwise few of them would not be afraid of death.

But she thought again, she had been to the scene of recruits several times recently, and how many of those strong and sturdy young men who were crying out for money were doing it?
They loved this land, and loved this hard-won peaceful territory in the wasteland.

They were so willing to give without asking for anything in return. If these people could die, why couldn’t their children die?

“I still have more than 300 copper coins in my account. Take them out and give them to Li Huan when you have time.”

It was clearly all the family property, but Uncle Li acted as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Guixiang also nodded without any objection. They were indeed willing to give everything for their children.

Seeing this, Su Mo ordered Zero to switch the view back and stop eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.

He turned to look at Qiao Yuansheng who was waiting leisurely beside him, and the latter smiled meaningfully.

Obviously what happened to Uncle Li was not accidental or unexpected.

Perhaps such things happen repeatedly in the territory every day, and he just happened to catch it this time.

“Born in adversity, die in comfort.”

Qiao Yuansheng was still smiling, but he looked a little wretched: “I didn’t understand why there was always such a strange atmosphere in the territory. Many people never seemed to enjoy the time to stop and rest, but instead kept on walking on the road of striving for progress. Later I figured it out, it was all because of you, the lord.”

“You haven’t even rested, so why should they dare to stop and rest?”

“Because of me?”

Su Mo was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help laughing.

“If I take a break now, will they take a break with me?”

“No.” Qiao Yuansheng shook his head: “The foundation has been laid. After the spiritual inheritance is established, this is the foundation of our Tianyuan territory. No one else joining can change it. They will only be assimilated and influenced by it, and eventually embark on the same path of struggle.”

“is that so?”

Su Mo nodded slightly.

If this reason was used to explain it, he would probably understand why even if he left the territory, everything would develop in the best direction as expected.

Keep fighting, be persistent and attack the difficulties head on.

This is the spiritual belief that was established when the Tianyuan Territory was founded. As long as this belief is not broken, the entire territory will revolve around this belief no matter how many people join.

Naturally, the road will not go astray and development will always continue to move forward.

Thinking of this, Su Mo suddenly became interested and said, “Zero, help me record the people who were in the car just now and record their life trajectories. I will come back to check it out in a month.”

“Master, your instructions have been recorded. Zero will record them every other day.”

After doing all this, Su Mo no longer had the desire to go anywhere else.

As long as there are no problems with the arable land, Tianyuan territory will have no worries after the autumn harvest.

The entire territory will immediately enter a period of rapid development and achieve all previous planned goals one by one.

“Call Lu Kuan over here. I have something to tell him.”

“Okay.” Qiao Yuansheng nodded and left. After a while, Lu Kuan entered the virtual world and came to the meeting room.

“Old Lu, you have to take care of your health. You can’t stay up like this.”

Noticing the pointed white hair on Lu Kuan’s head and his tired smile, Su Mo couldn’t help but frown.

Although I helped him change some negative entries last time, human energy is always limited and cannot withstand long-term consumption.

“It’s almost done. Those things you brought back last time were all good stuff. I can’t sleep well until I dismantle them.”

Lu Kuan smiled and seemed not to take his body seriously.

He has been sleeping in his brain box for hundreds of years. He has only been busy for a short time. Isn’t it shameful to complain about the hardship?
“You have to promise me first, otherwise I dare not give you these things.”

“ah?”

Lu Kuan was subconsciously stunned, but the next second he saw several thick stacks of information appear next to Su Mo, and he immediately understood.

“Wait, these are the techniques you were talking about last time?”

“There are 334 technologies in total, covering 17 fields including people’s livelihood, military industry, aerospace, communications, medical care, education, transportation, energy, environmental protection, and agriculture. I have organized each technology to the top level of the earth, which includes a complete technical manual and reproduction method.”

“What?”

Lu Kuan stood up quickly and wanted to look through the technical materials.

More than 300 technologies?
What speed is this?

“You have to promise me that you will rest for at least six hours every day, otherwise I won’t dare give you these things.”

“Okay, okay, I promise you.”

Lu Kuan had no choice but to agree.

After such a long time, he already knew Su Mo’s temper. If he didn’t get enough rest for six hours in the next period of time, this guy would definitely force him to take a vacation for a while.

With so much neatly documented technology in hand that cannot be reproduced, taking a vacation would be like killing him, wouldn’t it?
“I promise that for the next period of time, after I assign tasks, I will get enough rest every day.”

“Okay, if I knew you were still working overtime in a month, you would know what I was doing.”

Su Mo raised his eyebrows, and then piles of information appeared in the virtual world.

In just ten seconds, the mountain of documents and materials filled half of the nearly 200-square-meter conference room.

There are more than 300 technologies, and nearly 400 kilograms of paper was used for recording alone.

Su Mo could no longer remember how many pens he had wasted. All he could say was that reproducing what was in his memory was not an easy task.

Fortunately, with the help of the system, he only needs to write out some key parts, and the system can help complete the rest.

The cost is only a few hundred special survival points, which is completely affordable.
