Chapter 288: Strange Base

As a special service area, it is only open during the day, which has to be said to be very strange. The door-to-door guests basically come to consume at noon and afternoon.

However, there is not even a single electric light in this area at night, and it is dark in the distance, and when you get closer, there is rarely a tent that reveals a glimmer of candles. No wonder it's closed at night and there are no customers. To put it mildly, it's so dark that you can't even see your face clearly, how can you pick a woman?

It has been observed that the remuneration for this business is pitifully small. That's two or three steamed buns at a time. According to the treatment of the base, it is just equivalent to a dinner for a man and a woman in a tent. If there are more people, there will not be enough to eat. In addition to earning dinner from business, the daily base only provides them with a steamed bun and a bowl of gruel for free in the morning. At the end of the day, if they can't take a single business, they really won't be able to eat dinner.

Xiao Tao and Wang Feng thought of the bearded middle-aged man and the poor mother and daughter, a family of three. The beard is middle-aged, but the mother and daughter are really thin. The woman's face was getting haggard day by day, and naturally there were not many people who looked at her. I'm afraid that most of the food that was distributed in the morning also went into the man's stomach. If this continues, the mother and daughter will starve to death sooner or later.

Compared with the other tents in the tent area, it is obvious that "women are inferior to men", but this bearded middle-aged man looks a little stupid. Obviously relying on women to support the family, this bearded middle-aged man still dares to treat the mother and daughter like this, is this not sure that he is throwing his own job?

I don't want to think about it, if the mother and daughter really died like this, the bearded middle-aged man became single, and he couldn't stay in this tent area if he wanted to.

The second quirky point of this tent area is here. It stands to reason that single women of a certain age are the most suitable for this industry. However, there is not a single woman in this area, and each tent must contain at least one man and one woman, or two husband and wife, or two father and daughter, two brothers and sisters, and even a man with an old wife, and a pair of men and women who meet this condition can also bring one or two children or the elderly in the tent. However, there are few people with old people, especially those with fathers, and some old women with can also take jobs. As for the one with the son, not much to say. But the one who takes the daughter also hopes that the daughter can take over the job as soon as she grows up.

If a tent loses a job, a woman will naturally move out of the area, but it is strange that a man has lost it.

Outside of this area, there are other areas where single women live, but there are no specific areas to live. In those other settlements, it is not allowed to do the kind of work in the tent area secretly.

Some single women and single men can't get into the tent area even if they want to mix together.

I've heard of forcing good people to become prostitutes. Someone is in a hurry and wants to sell himself. It's too strange that the service area is not collected. I don't know who set this rule, and I have a bad taste. Isn't it a bad taste to have to let men who are related by blood or really close to each other guard their own women and serve other men?

Let's talk about other areas. The lowest are the lonely and widowed elderly who have no ability to survive. There are also some rudimentary tents in the area, but most of them are not even tents, except for a quilt nest on the ground. Every day, they barely counted the days on the scarce meal provided by the base. Too old, too weak. If you can't go out of the nest to get food by yourself, the base won't send it to them, it's just waiting for death.

Slightly better is the orphan area, not far from the old man's area. The living conditions are similar. But the children were still alive and could go to other areas to dig through the garbage heaps or simply steal some food on their own, except for the pitiful daily meal at the lead base.

The base doesn't care if these children are messing around in other areas. Unless the robber himself catches them red-handed, then they can either let the child go when they want to get the food back, or clean up the child without permission.

These children are also weird. The time when they commit crimes is basically from nightfall to early morning. Naturally, no one cares about turning over the garbage heap. The target of their stealing will not be the upper third-class area, but only dare to do it in the lower third-class area. But in the same third-class area, how much spare food can each family have for them to steal? They are bold. Whoever wants to steal dares to break into the house or tent when there is someone in the house. However, on this big night, everyone is basically not already asleep or about to fall asleep. Those caught red-handed are all slow runners. Most of the sleepy owners just want their food back and let them go, and there are really few who beat them.

The children's favorite place to commit crimes is the special tent area. It's dark here, so it's easy to touch in. It's more like they know which business has more business and has free food, and they pick those tents to start.

It's as if there were some special tents with a little extra to keep these children. Thinking about it this way, those children are very professional and have a good work ethic to diverge the time of crime from the service time of the tent area, and definitely not add to the chaos during the business hours of the tent area.

In addition, there are a few in the slightly better lower areas where people live in houses. Most of the people living here are single young men and women. Their treatment doesn't seem to be as good as that of the special tent area. The base only provides them with a free meal in the morning every day. In addition, they do the most tiring and inferior work in the base every day. The most common work of both men and women is to wash the clothes, wash this and that, for the people in the base. 50 pieces of clothing to earn three steamed buns. The best job is to grab breakfast and distribute it to the people in the lower areas.

The big kitchen in the base was prepared and sent here, and someone was found in the building area to be responsible for the distribution. There is still a lot of grain in this place, and it doesn't mean that they will definitely be able to get a lot of oil and water when they get this job. In fact, there are not many steamed buns and gruel left every day that no one will come to collect, so they can keep them by themselves. Who didn't come to receive these steamed buns and gruel. Everybody knows about it. In order to be able to take the rest for himself, naturally no one was kind enough to give it to those old people. Naturally, it is not possible to collect it on behalf of everyone, and everyone must come to collect it in person.

The work of sharing meals is not something that can be shared every day. There is no fixed amount of excess that can be obtained when it is spread. Generally speaking, the food source for people in the low-class building area is not as stable as that in the special service tent area. Don't look at the houses they live in, in fact, they are also the most humble mud houses. There are many cracks on the four walls, which are not as good as tents to block the wind, and there is no electricity at night.

In this environment, the work is still exhausting and tired, and it is no wonder that many people want to squeeze into the special tent area. But that's all you've heard. In the early days of zoning, there were people who tried to squeeze through the tent area, but they were unsuccessful. Just Xiao Tao and they arrived at the base. Not once did anyone ever want to go to the tent area. Everyone seems to be either dead or used to it.

Let's talk about the living quarters on the three floors of the base.

First and foremost is the living quarters of the Anomalous. The treatment in this area is really good. They lived in a decent building. The base regularly distributes three meals a day. Breakfast is also steamed buns. Clear porridge, but the porridge water is obviously much thicker, and there are more pickles. The remaining two meals are real rice, and the side dishes are not too big to be big fish and meat. But occasionally you can see shredded meat and minced meat, mostly fried shredded potatoes and the like. Speaking of which, it is more difficult to eat fresh vegetables than meat in this base. There is only such a small successful vegetable plot in the whole base, and the demand is simply in short supply.

The strangers who live here all have some canned food in stock, mostly canned fruits and vegetables. You don't have to ask, you know that they brought it back by themselves when they went out on a mission, or it was given priority by the base.

And the vegetable field at the base will also give some fresh vegetables to the superpowers. It's nothing more than a meal for the gifted who has given the mission to come back and be rewarded. Those who don't have a task can't be divided.

After that, it is the residential area of ordinary people who contributed to the early days of the base. Their treatment is slightly worse than the living quarters of the Anomalous, and they live the same as the Anomalous Ones. It's also three meals a day, but their three meals a day are not as rich as those of the Anomalous One, but they are also full of rice and steamed buns. However, most of them do not have their own inventory. As far as their treatment is concerned, they are already nostalgic for the old feelings.

The best treatment is naturally the leadership that is mainly based on the establishment of base soldiers. They don't care if they have abilities or not, they collectively live in the main building of the base, and there is a separate restaurant in the main building. The vegetable fields at the base were harvested, and they were all sent to the restaurant warehouse in the main building. The main building of the base has 24-hour power supply and water supply.

As far as water supply and power supply are concerned, there is no such treatment for the supernatural and the contributing residential buildings. In their building, water supply is only available at fixed times in the morning, noon and evening, and each section is limited to one hour. Power supply for two hours at a fixed time in the evening.

But that's what happened earlier. Little Peach after they came. In the event of a major drought, in addition to the main building of the base, the supernatural and contributing residential buildings were cut off from water and electricity, not to mention the third-class areas. If you use water in the base, you have to go to the main building to fetch water. Depending on the area, there is a large number of water that can be fetched every day. The laundry area is not given more than that, only the limit of drinking, and their laundry work is cut off.

Xiao Tao finally had the opportunity to contact Sheng Hui this time, that is, she took over the task of going out to find water at the base.

In fact, the base has always had the task of going out, looking for supplies and water. But Xiao Tao and the others silently felt that the base was wary of their newcomers. Except for the news of Bao Jianfeng when they first arrived at the base, they have been living a peaceful life, and the base gradually let go of them. In the beginning, the base used excuses such as full to prevent them from going out.

Little Peach: They weren't so eager to go out on a mission at first. Their first goal was to find out about Bao Jianfeng. But half a month has passed. They don't have a clue. Xiao Tao felt that they should at least contact Sheng Hui and report their safety, so they began to actively sign up for the task.

They signed up as a squad. But when it came time to actually go on a mission, the base scattered their personnel. Three missions were made. Xiao Tao finally arranged a team with Wang Feng, but their team still had other abilities in the base.

When the team was resting, they asked Wang Feng to completely stun them who were already asleep with black fog, so that they had the opportunity to sneak away from the team, find their pre-hidden car, and retrieve Xiao Tao's watch to contact Sheng Hui. Just to be on the safe side, though. They didn't dare to leave the group for too long every day, and they didn't dare to stun others for too long with the black fog. Yesterday, no one in Shenghui received a call from Xiao Tao, and they didn't dare to wait too long. I had to leave a message and contact Sheng Hui today.

Now that they're on a mission with a large team, they can stun them once a day while they're sleeping, making sure they can talk to Sheng Hui once a day. But on the way back, they had to hide their watches again. It is estimated that when they return to the base, the base will search them. Anyway, the first few times, every time I searched.

When Xiao Tao finished talking about everything, he estimated that the time was almost up, and hung up the phone in a hurry.

Xiao Tao's phone call made everyone in Shenghui feel a lot more at ease. At least I knew a lot of information about the Red Star Base, and I also made sure that Xiao Tao and they were not attacked by zombies or flying insects. However, even Xiao Tao and the others have not had a chance to find and contact Bao Jianfeng, which makes Sheng Hui's people very worried about Bao Jianfeng and them.

The many specific examples cited by Xiao Tao made Sheng Hui feel that the Red Star Base was not simple. It's just a miasma of smoke or something. The focus is on Xiao Tao's sentence "as if hypnotized", which made Sheng Hui's hearts feel a pimple.

The Red Star Base Sky has a good name, but it's actually a mess inside. But in such a chaotic situation, there is a certain pattern. In terms of the division of those residential areas, it is also very famous.

The third-class residential area is very calm, but I can't see anything. As far as the lower third-class residential areas are concerned, the old people are clearly abandoned. The orphan area base did not give up openly, but let the people in the tent area raise it. The mud house area and the tent area are the most quirky. One is doing the most tiring work, and the other is doing the most ...... It's obviously a very shady job, but it has become a blatant job, and it's still the most profitable job.

No matter how you think about it, I feel that the division of the third-class area is very deliberate, and it is indeed full of bad taste.

The special service area is too dazzling. To say that the people in there are all forced out, but it seems to be an indispensable place in the base.

The base is clearly given a third-class treatment, which is very bad. But the third-class treatment is enough to go to the tent area for consumption. Indirectly, it gives the tent area a clear way to live. This living road is still very spacious, and it can even help other passers-by in the lower third class.

And if you think about it deeper, it's like the base is changing the law to let these people "contribute" to the base. There is no choice for this "contribution". And the special tent area with the largest oil and water, the most unsightly work has become a dazzling job. In fact, their earnings were accused. The more they earn, the more they can't keep. The children's existence is as if it was deliberately designed to control them.

The control of children is hidden. The existence of the tent area is undoubtedly very jealous of the people in the mud house area.

The men and women in the tent area are ostensibly the best in the lower third area, but the relatives look at each other doing this kind of work, and they know their bitterness. They don't have to sell their bodies to do the most tiring work in the mud house area, but they themselves have to compare it with the tent area, which makes them more and more unwilling, and their minds are twisted sooner or later.

Listening to what Xiao Tao said, everyone guessed that the food stock in the Red Star Base should not be much, and the most important thing was that there was no long-term stable supply. But the upper echelons have made the entire base squander in poverty so openly and secretly, and the lower echelons are all distorted, no matter how you look at it, there is a big conspiracy.
