Chapter 578: Extravagant Enjoyment
Baltimore is located in the Washington metropolitan area, where there are many research institutes. www.biquge.infoElder Joseph also had a heart for the country and all mankind to protect several fugitive members of the National Academy of Sciences, and he was still proud of his righteousness at that time.
But after a long time, I found that the academician had an egg. All of them are old, even seventy or eighty years old, with various illnesses and pains, and need special attention. Let them work but can't do anything, obviously they are full of knowledge and even rice worms are not as good as rice worms, a proper manure machine.
It's like buying a high-performing stock, originally thinking that it could go all the way up, but it fell all the way, and even lost all the pants. So whether he lost or not, Elder Joseph could only pinch his nose and admit the deal.
Watching the trembling academicians being sent to a separate resting tent, Elder Joseph could only sigh and sigh that he might have really done a good deed. But all he had to do now was hurry back to the shelter with the medicine he had exchanged.
"Don't you want a camel machine?" Seeing that Elder Joseph was leaving, the handover personnel sent by the camp also specially reminded him.
"Can you give us the pot camel machine now?" Of course, Elder Joseph wants a pot camel machine, although that thing has a small unit power and occupies a large area, but it is still better than a bicycle power generation equipment! And with electricity, there's so much more you can do.
There is actually a pot camel machine in the temporary camp, which is a backup power generation equipment specially brought by Zhou Qingfeng in case he leaves with the 'nuclear melting battery'. The person who came to hand over nodded affirmatively and said, "We can help you transport you to the shelter and teach you how to install and use it." ”
"No, no, no, I can send someone to learn how to use it. And we can transport it ourselves. Elder Joseph still stuck to his bottom line and refused on the spot. He was adamant not to let the squad members into the shelter, "I can arrange for a few soldiers to learn the operation right now." ”
The pot camel machine is not a precision equipment, but a stupid and stupid antique-level machine. To put it bluntly, a boiler carrying a steam engine is a very compact power equipment that can be made relatively small. The task force provided a movable pot camel machine with wheels, twenty-five horsepower, several hundred kilograms.
To put it bluntly, this thing is to burn the stove, how to ignite the fire, how to ensure the air pressure, how to deflate the air pressure when the air pressure is high, and some simple fault maintenance. A dozen Vault soldiers here followed to learn how to do it, while Elder Joseph wandered around the camp to see the strange team for himself.
Due to the large number of people accommodating, the makeshift camp became bustling, with everyone having to undergo a simple medical check-up, followed by a large amount of medication and food.
There were only two or three doctors in the action team, and a few coolies were temporarily pulled as assistants. Watching the people who had been sold line up for inspection, this simple scene alone made Elder Joseph's heart tremble.
These guys are really extravagant!
First of all, all personnel are to take a bath, of course, in a hot shower. If you need water for bathing, then you need a pump to pump water. The pumped water is sent to the field cooking truck, which has a high-powered electric heater that provides hundreds of liters of boiling water every minute.
It's a damn power drain!
This power consumption alone is not something that a pot camel machine can provide. Could it be that these guys have more than one pot camel machine? No wonder they gave us one. Your Excellency Elder.
After taking a shower, people are naked in the bathroom for physical examinations, and many of them are skinny and have various diseases. And those doctors immediately opened the medicine boxes carried by the convoy, and used all kinds of drugs in short supply as if they didn't need money.
Finding that they were being treated well, all those who were sold were reassured that they were not being treated like slaves or food. It's a genuine way to see yourself as a useful person.
Elder Joseph, on the other hand, was shocked, and he confirmed once again that there was really no shortage of medicine for the people in this armed convoy. They spend several times more on the various containment personnel than they do on the Vaults.
"Strange, where the hell are these people coming from? With just over 20 vehicles, it is impossible for them to meet the survival needs of hundreds of people no matter what! Elder Joseph was still surprised that the camp had actually become so crowded that the people who were being contained had to live in some tents.
What surprised His Excellency Elder even more was that this convoy actually served supper. He saw boxes and boxes of noodles come down from several light trucks until they were empty. These noodles, known as 'Supreme', are boiled in boiling water for a few minutes and then eaten with a sauce that tastes great.
"Elder Joseph, this is your noodles." The cook took the initiative to give a plate full of food, and also reminded: "Hurry up and eat, it's cold and cold." ”
In order to keep warm, everyone gathered in a large tent to eat noodles, and several light boilers were burning in the tent, so that the temperature was almost above zero in the minus ten degrees. It's already a lot warmer.
A mouthful of hot noodles goes down to the stomach, and the aroma of fat directly stimulates people's appetite. A plate of noodles snorts and makes people feel warm. And what surprised His Excellency the Elder even more was that the noodles here were eaten openly, eaten openly, and eaten openly!
The elders of the original shelter fought hard and paid the price of hundreds of people to loot tens of thousands of tons of supplies in the city. But none of these supplies now seem to be able to meet the needs inside the shelter, otherwise so many people would not be starving.
And how extravagant is this team? Where do they have the confidence to make people eat openly?
Elder Joseph sat in the crowd of diners and noticed that diners were coming and going, and when they were done, they left without stopping. He asked a few questions, and learned that these people had enough to eat.
"It's late at night, what else are you going to do?" Elder Joseph knew, however, that although the worst phase of the nuclear winter had passed, it was still dripping into ice at night. Do you still have to work in this environment?
"We all want to work, and only by working can we have food and live." It was a middle-aged white woman who spoke, eating noodles silently, and then leaving with a plate.
"Patty, you're Patty." Elder Joseph recognized the woman in front of him, the first woman to be traded out yesterday. At that time, she was completely stunned like a fool, but in just one day, this woman who was about to starve to death was rejuvenated.
"Yes, I'm Patty. Elder, thank you very much for trading me out, otherwise I'm dead. And here, I have renewed hope of living. The white woman said politely, but there was inevitably resentment in her tone and eyes. In the Vault, she was a worthless lowliest. This means that she does not even have the most basic survival guarantees.
Seeing that a woman as humble as an ant in the past dared to sneer at him, Elder Joseph couldn't help but say with a straight face: "It seems that you have integrated into this team, but I am not optimistic about you at all. It's a pleasure for you to eat and drink so happily now. But what about tomorrow, the day after tomorrow? How many days will your leader last? ”
Unexpectedly, the white woman did not have any frustration, but sneered: "Your Excellency, you don't have to worry about this matter. With the Legion Commander here, we can hold on forever. As for the food and drink in front of us, this is too trivial, we will soon clear a runway where we can land, and tomorrow there will be transport planes to bring in supplies. ”
What......? Transport! (To be continued.) )
