Chapter 233: Unexpected Surprise
"We decided that all 20,986 people under the age of 40 would move to Hope City. Please be kind to the five gentlemen! ”
The leadership of the Liupan Mountain base did not procrastinate for a long time, but in just half an hour, they had already discussed and made a decision.
Head Qin cautiously handed over the roster to Zhuang Tao, tears rolling in his eyes. On this thin piece of paper, there is the hope of all the older generations, including his children and granddaughters.
This is not the result that Cao An wants, he is a little angry:
"Nonsense, this is nonsense! Captain Qin, why don't you all move to Hope City? Every human life is precious, and you don't have the right to decide whether they stay or not! ”
"No, I have the right! The Liupan Mountain base belongs to Huaguo and is under the control of the central base. Although I am now out of touch, as a soldier, I have the right and obligation to protect this base. ”
"What do you mean, isn't it a Chinese to go to Hope City? Commander Qin, your thinking is too stubborn, I can't agree! ”
"I don't mean anything else, it's in the nature of a soldier to obey orders! Before the superiors order the revocation of the name of Liupan Mountain, I must stay in this place! ”
"Does it matter? This is unfair to people over the age of 40, you can't drag so many people forward and backward because of your righteousness! With a population of more than 20,000 people, have you thought about it, it is all a living human life! ”
"They'll all agree! Liupan Mountain was built by them with their own hands and built brick by brick. This is our common home, where all our laughter and tears are our roots! ”
"Yes, we can grow mushrooms now, the snakes are gone, Liupan Mountain is safe, our home is safe!"
"That's right! We were appointed as the leader of this base, and we swore an oath at that time to stick to our posts and never leave our posts! ”
"Young people can leave, children can leave, but we can't! We have to stay here, wait for the sun to rise, and wait for the call of the center! ”
"Is there really such a day?"
"Whether we have it or not, we'll wait!"
Everyone has their own ambitions, and Cao An wanted to rush over to shake these dead old men awake, but Lin Yue grabbed him and shook his head gently.
She smiled at everyone, took the lead in opening the door and walked out, Cao An was stunned, and dropped a sentence:
"Over to you!"
I also hurriedly chased my wife away!
Zhuang Tao held these yellowed pieces of paper, as if holding a Mount Tai. He carefully flipped through them one by one, picked out a familiar name, and crossed it out.
This was followed by a five-day roll call, checking information, consolidating the teams, packing up and saying goodbye!
In the past few days, the sky above Liupan Mountain has been filled with laughter at every moment, and sadness at every minute.
These two extreme emotions contradict each other and coordinate with each other, and it is impossible to say what it feels like.
"Mom, I don't want to go, I'm going to stay here with you, just in this Liupan Mountain, don't go anywhere!"
"Grandpa, why didn't Dad take you with him, he wasn't good!"
"Husband, what should I do, do we really want to separate?"
…………
"Good daughter, don't cry, it's a good thing! You're going to laugh, laugh out loud! ”
"Good boy, your dad is very good, it's grandpa who doesn't want to leave this house! You have to be obedient in the future and don't cause trouble! ”
"Wife, I'll go to Captain Wang and ask him to take back his life, you are only 41 years old, you can't stay here alone!"
…………
Distinguishing between people and stays by age is a one-size-fits-all approach, but it also has many hidden dangers.
The most obvious is the middle-aged couple, who became separated by one or two years of Lao Yan, and were forced to separate the two places.
Zhuang Tao had no choice but to gather these people together and let them decide freely whether to go or stay!
The vast majority of people choose to leave Liupan Mountain, not because they don't want to stick to it, but because they can't rest assured that their children and grandchildren can't be relieved!
In this way, the original return date was postponed for two days. Finally, it was time to separate.
No matter how reluctant it is, time will not stop its rushing pace. Eighteen phases, it's impossible!
The sky was dark without a trace of light, all the farewell words had been said, and all the earnest advice was in my heart. More than 20,000 people with small bags on their backs, dragged their children and daughters, and embarked on the road to the legendary City of Hope!
Cao An had been angry these days, and he didn't understand the choices made by the likes of Regiment Leader Qin. However, he still left some of the supplies:
There are three enhanced lighting talismans left, more than a dozen low-version illumination talismans, and the huge cauliflower snake also has half a ring empty, as long as you save it, you can eat it for half a year.
In fact, he wanted to send more, but the head of the Qin regiment resolutely refused to accept it, and that's all, he also exchanged it for salt.
That's right, it's salt!
The mountain range where the base of Liupan Mountain is located has a natural rock salt cave that produces pink transparent rock salt.
In the past ten years, there has been a shortage of everything in the base, that is, there has never been a shortage of salt. When they don't have fun, or when they're upset, they rush to the cave and dig a basket with a hum.
Enjoy this rewarding joy!
And the only happiness they can get!
There was salt, and it was definitely a surprise for the management of Hope City.
The salt in the warehouse is decreasing day by day, and the bay has never shown its head, even if Lin Yue has great ability, it is impossible to look for salt everywhere like a headless fly.
They have long been worried about the future salt problem, and now it has finally been solved!
As the saying goes, good people are rewarded!
This is definitely a wise saying.
If they didn't come to the rescue with kindness, and they didn't kindly retreat to Liupan Mountain, where would they go to find this rock salt cave mouth in the long night.
It looks like a football field inside, but the entrance to the cave is only half a person high, and even the Liupan Mountain base was not found at first. It was still a child chasing a mouse, and ran in by mistake, and saw that the stone was beautiful, so he took it out and showed it.
Zhuang Tao stroked the pink rock, as if he was caressing the goddess peak of his first love, and smiled obscenely and cheaply:
"Good salt, the best rock salt, this is an exclusive supply for the nobility that they couldn't buy before! Elder Guo, the credit for this time is half of Luo Luo's, don't forget when you go back! ”
"How?"
"The situation was urgent, and we all wanted to go back to Hope City. It's his kid, seeing that the snake is afraid of light, he is determined to come to Liupan Mountain to help! ”
"I didn't expect this to happen, it really should be given to him, I think he was naughty when he was a child, and he grew up and made meritorious contributions in a blink of an eye, time flies so fast!"
"Yes! The kids grow up, and so do we! ”
The two big men got stuck after saying a few words, walked silently, and stopped talking.
The mountain wind gusted, blowing over the rocks from time to time to make a whining sound, and the suppressed low sobs in the crowd, and played a parting song together:
Outside the long pavilion, on the side of the ancient road, the grass is all over the sky......
A pot of turbid wine is full of joy, don't dream of the cold tonight......
Lin Yue couldn't help but look back at Liupan Mountain, where there were a large number of people standing at the gate of the city. They couldn't see anything clearly, but they all stretched their necks and waved their arms, and their eyes flashed with tears that they didn't know if they were hopeful or sad!
