Chapter 81: Building a factory

Ling Jiu's name was a homophone for the number 09. According to Ling Jiu, there were several copied versions of her numbered 0 to 08 before her, all belonging to the category of primary intelligent AI. However, it was unknown whether they were also used in Refuges like Ling Jiu. According to Ling Jiu, she was supposed to be installed on an air cruiser when she was first created.

"In that case, you're being wasted in the Refuge. You should be applied to the military field," Feng Jun said.

Ling Jiu looked proud and raised her chin slightly arrogantly. "That's right. Originally, I should have been on the Ming Empire's air cruiser, commanding battles in space with the Commander, instead of being buried deep underground in a Refuge a thousand meters below."

"If that were the case, you would have become space junk orbiting outside the Earth's atmosphere. If the weather is good, you can see it with the naked eye. Those wrecks are floating in outer space, and from time to time, fragments will fall into the atmosphere due to collisions, turning into meteors streaking across the sky," Feng Jun directly dismissed Ling Jiu's idea.

Ling Jiu smiled helplessly after hearing this. Although she had the ability to simulate human thinking, she could not refute or resist the instructions given by the controller.

"Do you know the location of other Refuges?" Feng Jun suddenly asked this question. After seeing this semi-finished Class A Shelter, he was tempted. If he could find one or two more such Refuges, it would definitely greatly strengthen his strength.

"My database only stores the locations of several Class C Shelter and Class D Shelter near Shangqing City, because the locations of these two types of Refuges are publicly available by default. Class A Shelter and Class C Shelter are both within the confidentiality regulations, so I don't know. Although Class C Shelter are confidential, they are numerous, but the number of Class A Shelter is relatively small. There should be no more than five Class A Shelter in the entire Lu Province. Moreover, the opening time of the Refuges is completely different, so you should not focus on this," Ling Jiu directly told Feng Jun that it was very difficult to find a valuable Refuge, and some Refuge information was completely confidential.

After chatting for a long time, Feng Jun prepared to leave the Refuge. He planned to return to Longmen Town first, leaving Song Zhan and Yan Xin in charge here, and delegating the Refuge's permissions to them.

Now the situation in the Refuge and Yanqing Industrial Park has completely stabilized. The zombies and Blood Nest in the industrial park have been suppressed. Walls and factories have begun to be built in an orderly manner, and Anti-corpse liquid can be mass-produced soon.

The residents in the Refuge have also been arranged. Scientists and researchers have been separated and handed over to Yan Xin for management. As for ordinary people without special abilities, they can be sent to the construction site to build factories first.

The scientists and researchers were relatively good. After understanding their respective specialties, Yan Xin began to assign them work. Now the Longmen base is expanding its armaments and needs to modify new Power Armor, mechanical exoskeleton, and even modify light infantry fighting vehicles. These require a large number of researchers, and the researchers' work is the easiest. Those ordinary people without any skills had a harder time and were directly pulled to the construction site by Song Zhan to build factories.

At first, these people did not recognize the current situation. After being arranged to build factories on the construction site, they complained every day, but Song Zhan did not indulge them. If they disliked the hard work and did not want to work, he would give them a day's rations and drive them out directly.

At first, the people who were driven out left the vicinity of the construction site cursing, but after a few hours, they ran back crying.

These unlucky people had only walked a few hundred meters when they encountered a Mutant frog. The size of this frog could grow to the size of two cows, and it could easily swallow a whole person. One unlucky person was swallowed directly into the stomach of the Mutant frog because he was too close to the mud.

Moreover, this frog was a gregarious animal, usually staying in the mud of swamps or ponds. When it encountered prey, it would come out in droves to devour it. After three of these unlucky people were swallowed, they returned to the vicinity of the construction site with more than a dozen Mutant frogs chasing after them.

The soldiers on guard saw this group of survivors crying and running for their lives from a distance. After seeing the frogs chasing behind them, the corners of several soldiers' mouths couldn't help but rise. The skin of Mutant frogs contains a huge amount of radiation, but the radiation content of their muscles is extremely low, and a pot of fresh frog soup can be made with a little cooking.

In this way, several survivors were rescued by the soldiers on guard. After surviving a catastrophe, they chose to stay and contribute to Feng Jun's career, and they worked harder when wielding their hoes than before.

On the construction site, Song Peng was listening to his subordinates report on their work. Although the construction speed of the factory was already very fast, it was still slightly behind his expected progress. Song Zhan was not the kind of person who would ignore the lives of his subordinates in order to complete the superior's goals. Because he had been a soldier in the army and had been a slave in the hands of others after Doomsday, he still cared about the feelings of his subordinates.

The winter of Doomsday had not passed, and the temperature was still around minus 15 degrees Celsius. Building factories in the wild was a very painful thing. However, the production of Anti-corpse liquid was crucial. As one of Feng Jun's confidants, he already knew the existence of Anti-corpse liquid. How important was a weapon that could restrain zombies and Mutants, so Song Zhan had been trying to speed up the construction of the factory as much as possible.

Although the Blood Nest had been suppressed, it would still breed zombies every day. Most of Song Zhan's soldiers needed to suppress the Zombie Tide and the number of zombies at all times, and only a small number of people could build the factory. However, a group of scavengers Feng Jun had recruited a few days ago came in handy. A group of scavengers led by De Chao were arranged to build the factory together. These scavengers had developed good physiques after surviving in the wasteland for many years. Killing zombies might be a bit dangerous for them, but being able to eat three meals a day and have enough to eat on the construction site was a great thing for them.

Moreover, there were four or five scavenger groups of various sizes near Yanqing Industrial Park, and they already knew each other. After De Chao's introduction, three scavenger groups had come to join them. All in all, more than two hundred people had chosen to come and join them. In this way, the construction speed of the factory was faster than expected.

Song Zhan looked at the virtual three-dimensional projection in front of him, which clearly marked the size and construction standards of each factory, and the progress of some completed construction was also marked on it. Just yesterday, Song Zhan was looking at ordinary drawings. Because there were no professional architectural designers, the factory design was drawn by Yan Xin and some half-baked people. Fortunately, yesterday afternoon, a group of blue skins who had just come out of the Refuge were sent here. These people were sent here to do hard labor because they had no useful skills. However, among this group of people, there was someone who studied architectural design. Before the war, he was the boss of a decoration company. Song Zhan happened to catch him to make the factory design drawings. In order not to do hard labor, this person worked hard and rushed out the three-dimensional projection design drawings in one night, and pointed out several unreasonable designs.

The survivors in those Refuges were completely honest at this time. After communicating with these scavengers here, they had completely believed that the world had completely become a wasteland. Some people had also dispelled their unrealistic ideas. Cheng Zixiao was one of them.

Before entering the Refuge, Cheng Zixiao was a teacher at the First Middle School in the South Sixth District of Shangqing City. He was considered a government-employed teacher who liked to lecture people he didn't like on weekdays. After waking up in Doomsday, he had always suspected that he was controlled by a group of separatist forces, and that the Ming Empire government still existed in this world. In his impression, the Ming Empire might be defeated, but it would never be destroyed.

A few days ago, Cheng Zixiao united more than a dozen survivors in the Refuge to protest at the construction site and was driven out. At first, they were complacent, thinking that they would soon be able to find the Ming Empire Regular Army and escape from the clutches of the devil, but the giant frogs that sprang out of a mud pit gave them a solid lesson. Gu Zixiao no longer had his arrogance, and the hoe in his hand was swinging so fast that it could almost spark on the ground, just to do more work so that he could get an extra bowl of frog meat soup at dinner.

Feng Jun had already gotten into the car back to Longmen Town, but there was one troublesome thing that had not been resolved, and that was the Gu Yunyun and Gu Yaoyao sisters.

Feng Jun's original plan was to hand over the ordinary survivors to Song Zhan, the surviving scientists to Yan Xin, and then he would rush back to Longmen Town, but Gu Yunyun ran over with her sister and hugged Feng Jun's waist from left to right, refusing to let go.

"We don't want to stay in the Refuge, Jun-gege, can you take us to where you live?" The Gu Yunyun sisters started acting coquettishly in public, directly making Feng Jun blush.

Looking at the two loli on the left and right, Feng Jun really wanted to take them both back, but thinking of Li Lu at home, he shivered. If he took two girls back, this woman would definitely be jealous, and he would definitely suffer.

Although he thought so in his heart, Feng Jun agreed under the soft and hard persuasion of the Gu Yunyun sisters, and thought about finding a place for the sisters to live alone after walking back, after all, he had more than enough to arrange a house in Longmen Town. Moreover, although Gu Yaoyao and Gu Yunyun were not very old, they had already obtained doctoral degrees before entering the Refuge, and they were specializing in robotics research.

Although the Refuge had complete research equipment, there was no production line that could produce robots. Taking them back to Longmen Town would be a good opportunity to modify the production line of robots and UAV.
