Chapter 443 Yangtze River Ferry

Hengsha Island is located at the easternmost tip of the Yangtze River estuary in Songhu and is the petite of the three islands in Chongming. Before the disaster, it was positioned as a "leisure resort island", mainly developing international entertainment centers, low-density high-end residential villa areas and other projects.

It originally belonged to Chuansha County, which was assigned to Baoshan County (now Baoshan District) in 1958 and Chongming District since 2005, with a total population of about 30,000. Because of its geographical environment, after the disaster broke out, the government forces assembled in Chongming took the lead in clearing the zombies on this island and made it a rear base camp for survivors in the Yangtze River Delta region.

Meng Jie and the others are standing on a ferry departing from Dongtan Wharf at the moment, and everyone is following Wu Wu to Hengsha Island today to register information, and some of them will accept the job assignment here.

After realizing that they might be separated, these partners who had been born and died together were a little apprehensive.

"Don't worry too much," Wu Wu comforted them when he saw that the other people's interest was a little low, "Even if we are separated, we are still a whole, the development here in Chongming is very different from Jilong Mountain, the sooner everyone integrates into the life and system here, the better it will be for themselves." ”

Seeing that there were no other outsiders on the bow of the ship, Wu Wu thought about it and told everyone the opinions he had considered before, "The development of Chongming can already see a thriving atmosphere, and there will be more and more survivors here in the future." Whether it is the terrain or the environment, it is almost always the first choice as a shelter. You can stay together forever, but considering that the population of the island will continue to increase in the future, and the existing jobs will only become more and more saturated. ”

"Master Wu is right, this is to let us occupy the pit first," Shu Qinghe understood when he heard Wu Wu say this. "It's hard for the number of jobs to keep up with the rate of population growth, and the more you get to the back, the harder it is to get a good job."

"If the pit is all occupied, what will happen to the rest of the people," Deng Xin asked, he wanted to go back to his old job, "can't you open your own shop or something?" For example, opening a small supermarket or something. ”

"If you don't have a government or military background, where will the supply come from," Zhao Kang smiled, "The materials are under the control of the government and the military, and it is basically impossible for ordinary people to meddle in this kind of industry at present." ”

"How do you know?" Su Penghui also had plans to do small business, and when he heard Zhao Kang say this, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, "What should people who haven't been assigned a job do to support themselves?" ”

"These things are not a secret, when you have nothing to do, you can find more people to inquire, if private people can do business here, I am afraid that half of those engaged in scientific research in the Dongtan International Conference Center will change careers, and there are several of them I know who have been involved in defrauding the state of scientific research funds and project subsidies before." Zhao Kang pursed his lips, his face undisguised his disdain for those people, "As for asking people who haven't been assigned jobs how to support themselves, then I can tell you that the most important thing in Chongming is farmland." ”

"We are all literate people, is it true that we will be divided into farming?" Deng Xin was a little panicked.

"That's why Master Wu wants everyone to come to occupy the pit as soon as possible," Shu Qinghe continued, "Today, I have to help Chengzhi sign up for a transfer class." ”

"What's so good about studying, I like to learn kung fu from Grandpa Wu and Uncle Meng," Du Chengzhi pouted a little dissatisfied, and he looked at Meng Jie and the others, hoping that one of them would stand up and help him speak.

"If people don't study, what's the difference between them and salted fish," Meng Jie said with a grin, "There are still many female classmates in the school." ”

"I like to play with boys," Du Chengzhi didn't understand why Meng Jie suddenly mentioned female classmates, in his opinion, what fun was there with girls, those girls would only cry and be coquettish.

"Hey, this kid seems to have lost at the starting line," Wu Zhe sighed.

"Master Wu, can I stay in your team?" Liu Jiajun walked over and asked Wu Wu.

"Of course, what's wrong?" Wu Wu nodded.

"What about Anrui? I hope I don't have to part with her. ”

"Miss Li, what is she going to do?" Wu Wu looked at Li Anrui, "It's not difficult for me to come up with a quota here, it's just that the work in the department doesn't match her major, and I'm afraid that after a long time, her talent will be wasted." ”

"I can raise her." Liu Jiajun said.

"Master Wu, I want to find a job I like," Li Anrui interrupted Liu Jiajun's words and gave him another blank look, "Who wants you to raise it." ”

"I want to be a teacher," Mr. Lee said, "and my father told me before that you have to live on your own." When I was in Jilong Mountain, I was able to enter the People's Committee because of Brother Jiajun, and it had nothing to do with my own ability. At that time, I was a little unwilling, the people in the shelter were very nice, and I wanted to contribute to everyone. ”

"It's good to be a teacher," Shu Qinghe nodded, and Dong Yan also stood up and said, "I like teachers too." ”

She said this with some ambiguity, and she blushed as soon as she said it.

"When I got to Hengsha, I asked their people to see if there was a position for a trainee teacher." Wu Wu thought about it and felt that the position of teacher was indeed quite suitable for Li Anrui, "Is it okay to be separated from Liu Jiajun?" ”

Li Anrui hesitated, looked at Liu Jiajun again, and finally nodded with determination, "If the love between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight." Besides, there are ferries here at the pier almost every day, and it won't take much time to meet if you want to meet, you say yes, Brother Jiajun. ”

"Okay," Liu Jiajun sighed, he hoped not to be separated from Li Anrui, but Li Anrui didn't want to be trapped in a cage like a canary, she had her talent and was also eager for her own stage.

"Look at that," Wu Zhe suddenly pointed to a tourist passenger ship on the sea in the distance and shouted, "Isn't that the boat we sailed from Bianzhou before?" ”

"Hehe, after handing it in, it was used so quickly." Meng Jie was a little surprised, and after a closer look, he found that it was indeed the boat that everyone had taken when they came to Chongming a week ago.

"Chongming District is composed of three islands, and at present, only Changxing and Chongming are connected by bridge, but even so, the activities of the military and civilians between these three islands are inseparable from boats," Ai Guoliang took his gaze back from the boat in the distance along with his memories, "Hengsha Island is closer to Changxing Island, and the Hengsha Wharf in the west and Changxing Island on the opposite side are only less than 1.5 kilometers wide, so the disaster relief headquarters is set up in the Jiangnan Shipyard near the river wharf on Changxing Island." ”

"Professor Ai, tell us about these departments on the island, I heard that there is a survivor rescue committee, and there is a disaster relief headquarters, is there any difference between these?" Shu Qinghe asked.

"These are the two departments under the jurisdiction of the municipal party committee, in terms of function, they are both tools used by the government to fight disasters, and the difference is the subdivision of functions," Ai Guoliang came to the island, and he understood this part very clearly, Shu Qinghe suddenly asked, and he began to popularize science for everyone, "Before, there was only one department here, the disaster relief headquarters, and when Chongming Island was first established, it made a significant contribution to the survivors of the three islands." Later, as the government began to use Hengsha Island as a springboard to attack Changxing Island and Chongming Island, the functions of the Disaster Relief Command were further refined, and finally another organization was separated from it, the Survivor Rescue Committee. All the soldiers of the former Disaster Relief Command are still retained, while the armed police and the public security are separated and assigned to the Survivor Rescue Committee. ”

"After the Survivor Rescue Committee was separated, it began to take on the internal security and guarding the boundaries of the control zone, while the Disaster Relief Command could focus on the dangerous areas on the island and outside the three islands of Chongming. Of course, when necessary, the armed police force in the survivor rescue committee needs to cooperate with the disaster relief headquarters, and all their tasks are uniformly ordered by the municipal party committee. ”

"That's good," Shu Qinghe couldn't help but nod after carefully analyzing Ai Guoliang's introduction to these two departments, "It's much better than the political pattern of Jilong Mountain, these two departments are under the unified command of the municipal party committee, and there won't be the kind of problems that Jiang Zhihua and them had before." ”

"Of course, the pattern on the other side of Jilong Mountain is small, and the situation is also a bit special. Chongming is a different story, bringing together the elite of survivors in this part of the Yangtze River Delta," Mr. Ai continued, "and the government has more experience and an advantage than the military in managing the region." ”

There are two large piers on Hengsha Island, one of which is on the west side of the island, across the water from the river pier on Changxing Island; The other is on the south side of the island, corresponding to the Outer Six Wharves on the side of Hudong New Area.

After the government forces assembled at Dongtan in the southeast corner of Chongming Island, they built the Dongtan Wharf here and used it as a base to cross the sands in the south.

After occupying the whole island of Hengsha, the army began to build a wharf here. Since then, there has been a third pier on Hengsha Island.

The third wharf on Hengsha Island is called Jianghai Wharf, which is located directly south of the island, and is about 10 kilometers away from the water surface of Dongtan Wharf on Chongming Island.

Liu Jiajun sat on the ferry, carefully estimating the travel time. Mr. Lee had previously offered to be assigned a job, which was not surprising to him. With Liu Jiajun's understanding of Li Anrui, he knows that this is what this girl really thinks.

Although he is a little reluctant, Liu Jiajun knows that love is not a constraint.

It would not be bad news if Li Anrui was eventually left in Hengsha, at least for now, Hengsha Island is the only area among the three islands where martial law has been lifted. Unlike Changxing Island and Chongming Island, the current number of zombies on the entire Hengsha Island is zero, which is very rare in any country in the post-disaster world.

Moreover, after Liu Jiajun entered Wu Wu's department, because the personnel were all gathered around Ai Guoliang, although they seemed to be safe, they were actually full of dangers. Liu Jiajun himself was the killer who targeted Ai Guoliang and others, he didn't know if he was the only one who accepted the mission when the Mi Secret Service sent the mission before, and there are currently tens of thousands of people on the three islands of Chongming, and there are so many people who are mixed, and the crisis of the "Yan Group" does not seem to have been completely resolved.

"By the way, Liu Jiajun," Wu Wu suddenly shouted at him, "After today's registration, I will have a new task for you here, which is also the task given to our department by the municipal party committee." ”
