The cold wind was biting and whistling, and not long after, heavy snow began to fall in the sky.

Qiu Qiu and his party temporarily stayed at the new student base. They all agreed to spend the New Year with the children before returning to their respective bases.

After all, everyone will be busy next year and may not have time to see them. Since they have decided to stay, the women in the team naturally do not want to be idle.

On weekdays, they sewed and mended and made clothes for the children. When the snow depth reached above the knees, they put down their work and began to make steamed buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, and stuffed buns for the children. After the glutinous rice cakes are made, they are frozen in two large vats outside the dormitory door.

When you want to eat, you can steam, fry or bake it. The children are very happy. These things take time. They haven’t eaten them since they left their respective bases, so they have been greedy for a long time. Now the adults have made so many , everyone shouted happily, saying that they could eat enough.

After the last crop of vegetables was harvested, Yang Xiaojuan and her team dried vegetables for the base and accumulated several large tanks of sauerkraut. Taking advantage of the cold weather, they made more than 30 plates of tofu, all of which were cut into palm-sized pieces. Leave it outside to freeze overnight, and then store it in a jar. When you want to eat it, just scoop out a few pieces.

These are all additive-free, purely handmade, and they taste great.Xiao Han saw that everyone was greedy, so he took a plate of frozen tofu and sliced ​​a large piece of ham that he had made. After boiling it in water, he stir-fried it with chili peppers, then added sliced ​​sauerkraut and frozen tofu to stew it. , that taste, not to mention how beautiful it is.

The children were so full that they were still reluctant to put down their bowls. Xiao Han promised them that he would make more delicious food for everyone tomorrow, and everyone stopped talking.

After that, everyone ushered in the most important day of the year - New Year's Eve as Xiao Han fed them.

Early in the morning, more than 20 men rushed into the breeding farm excitedly. After a while, Xiao Han and Qiu Qiu happily brought out two fat goats.

As for the remaining people, they were either carrying chickens, ducks, or geese, and those big fat pigs, which no one was willing to touch. They had worked hard to raise the children, so they kept them for them to eat later.

After everyone slaughtered the sheep and poultry quickly, they followed Chef Xiao's instructions. One sheep was stewed, the other was grilled, and the haggis was stewed and divided into half for frying.

As for other poultry, we have cooked a lot of various flavors, including braised in sauce, braised in braised sauce, cut in white, and griddle-cooked. Vegetables have also been cooked in seven or eight pots of stir-fried, minced garlic, stir-fried with soy sauce and other flavors.

Then steam the homemade ham, smoked bacon, game, stew sauerkraut and frozen tofu, stir-fry assorted scrambled eggs, mix a bowl of preserved eggs, add several large pots of cooked dumplings, steamed rice, and it’s a complete meal. The sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner is completely ready.

The children arranged the tables in the cafeteria into a long row and placed all the food on it. Divide everything into four portions, with portions placed at regular intervals at both ends and in the middle. This not only ensures that everyone has something to eat. With the dishes, everyone can eat together, which is almost like having a long table banquet.

When the dishes were served, everyone happily stood in two rows. Qiu Qiu picked up the teapot in front of him, raised it into the air with a smile, and then shouted, "Happy New Year!"

"Oh! Happy New Year! Hahaha..."

Everyone also raised the teapot and clinked glasses with the people opposite and around them in mid-air, making a clanging sound. Then one of them smiled and took a sip of the mutton soup in the teapot, then put it down and picked up the bowls and chopsticks. , put your favorite dishes on it, and eat it to your heart’s content.

The meal took nearly three hours to finish. It was already past 3 o'clock when everyone had finished cleaning up the mess, but today is the Chinese New Year!Everyone was not busy sleeping, but moved their positions one after another to the Great Hall.

After they swept the ground clean, they left a spot in the middle and burned two iron boxes of charcoal fire. Then they spread the children's mats woven from corn husks one by one around five or six meters away from the fire.

Then the quilt was spread on it, and a group of people took off their shoes and went up, either sitting or lying down, playing cards, chatting, and playing games on it, which made it very lively.

Qiu Qiu, Xiao Han and the backbone of each base were sitting in the corner, eating melon seeds and watching the children and team members having fun, with smiles on their faces.

Chen Gang hugged Zhuang Qi and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "In another 20 years, with everyone's joint efforts, the world might get better!"

He turned to look at Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han, raised his eyebrows and joked, "I will apply for a half-year leave then and take my Zhuang Qi on a honeymoon trip."

"Okay! I will give you leave then!"

Qiu Qiu readily agreed, his eyes flashing, and then he added, "When you are on your honeymoon, remember to observe various conditions in the places you visit and report back to me."

"...Ah!?" Chen Gang's eyes widened and he looked at him in disbelief, thinking that he had heard wrong. But Qiu Qiu nodded directly, "Remember!"

"Pfft!"

"Hahahaha! I'm laughing so hard..."

Everyone laughed, and Liu Ning pointed at Chen Gang, laughing so hard that tears came out, "I'll let you show off your honeymoon, now it's okay! You won't be able to retire in 20 years!"

Xiao Han's eyes flashed slightly, and he immediately raised his lips and raised his chin towards him, "What! Does that mean you don't want to do this anymore in 20 years?"

Liu Ning choked instantly, glanced at everyone who was watching the show, waved his hands and shook his head, "No, absolutely not, I can still work for another 50 years!"

"You said it! Everyone heard it!"

Xiao Han pointed to a circle of people present, "Liu Ning said that he will work for 50 years. From now on, everyone will keep an eye on him. If he doesn't work for the full term, he won't retire!"

"Okay!" Chen Gang grinned and cheered, "I'll take a notebook and write it down when I get back, so I won't forget it!"

Li Changqing smiled and raised his hand, "I will help you testify!"

"Add me one!"

Leng Tian also nodded solemnly, and the others also started shouting, saying that they would remember it for him. Liu Ning quickly handed over his hand and apologized, "I was wrong, please let me go!"

Qiu Qiushi laughed out loud, "Are you still talking nonsense!?"

"I won't say it anymore, I don't dare to say it anymore!"

Liu Ning smiled and shook his head, then put away his smile and looked at the other party seriously.

Seeing how serious he had become, Qiu Qiu quickly sat up straight, turned her head to look at him, and asked seriously, "What's wrong?"

"fine!"

Liu Ning opened her lips and said softly, "Captain! After all these years, I still haven't properly said thank you to you and Captain Xiao!"

Xiao Han's eyes overflowed with smiles, "Why are you so sensational all of a sudden!?"

"It's not sensational!"

Liu Ning curled her lips and raised her eyes to look at him, "This is what I think in my heart. Without you, my brother and I would have died long ago, let alone having enough food, clothing, and starting a family!"

"Yan Bing and I are also very grateful to you!"

Leng Tian took the words and looked at Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han seriously, "For so many years, you have always supported us in our work in the early stage.

Later, something happened to me when I moved away. At that time, I thought I would not survive.

But in the end, Yan Bing brought me back to the base, and it was you who treated me and brought me back from hell. "

Qiu Qiu smiled and waved his hand, "We are all brothers, what kind words can we say!"

"It's not a polite word, you are treating me and Xiao Gao too!"

Han Jie hugged his lover's hand tightly, "When I was falsely accused and wanted, you took me in regardless of our safety.

We have rescued Xiao Gao and I countless times, as well as the brothers from the security department. We will never be able to repay this kind of kindness in our next life. "

Xiao Han and Qiu Qiu looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of helplessness. They thought they had finished speaking, and others followed suit.

Chen Gang and Zhuang Qi also nodded in agreement, "Our lives are also given by the two captains!"

"Let alone my Lexus and me!"

Zhang Yukun took the words and glanced at his son who was having fun with the children not far away. Then he looked back at Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han, his eyes full of gratitude.

"You haven't received as much kindness as me!"

Li Changqing was aroused at this moment, and he was a little excited, and his voice was trembling when he spoke, "An Ning had autism before. When the end of the world comes, you can imagine what will happen.

However, I met Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han. Not only did you take care of my children and help me renovate my house, you also went out with me to find supplies.

Later, he helped me many times, helping me fight off bad guys, taking care of me when I was sick, and teaching me peace of mind.

Later, I rescued Xiaojuan. After she became pregnant, you helped me run around, prepare nutrition for her, and arrange a place for confinement.

And our adopted son Dudu, everyone knows how good Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han are to him, so... such kindness!I really can't repay it in a few lifetimes! "

"Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han are not only our benefactors, they are also the benefactors of all survivors."

"Sister Shan! Stop talking?"

Qiu Qiu felt a little ashamed when she heard them talking more and more energetically. She immediately put her head on her lover's shoulder and was too embarrassed to look up at everyone.

The same was true for Xiao Han. He clenched a fist with one hand in embarrassment, put it to his lips and coughed several times. He also felt in his heart that everyone's praise for them was too exaggerated.

Yue Shan looked at the helpless two people with serious expressions on their faces, "I'm serious, you two, don't feel embarrassed!

If you don’t believe it, just ask anyone and you will know if they think so! ? "

"Okay, don't say anything anymore. Besides, they are going to sell their heads under the quilt!"

Zhao Huaian looked at the two of them and couldn't help but smile. "I won't say sensational words. Anyway, in this life, as long as I can still move, I will do whatever you ask me to do!"

Qiu Qiu shook his head and laughed, "Uncle Zhao! Isn't this sensational enough!?"

Zhao Huaian leaned back against the wall, "I don't think so!"

"Fine!"

Qiu Qiu opened his mouth and spread his hands, then put them down and laughed again, "Let's! Let's not talk about being grateful or not.

It’s all sincerity for sincerity. I only hope that no matter what the world becomes in the future, our original intentions will remain unchanged! "

Everyone nodded in agreement, "That's for sure!"

"Our original intention remains unchanged..."

New Year's Eve ended with the children's play and the thanksgiving meeting with Qiu Qiu and his party.

Everyone stayed up all night, causing them to stay in bed together the next day, and didn't wake up one after another until the evening.

They ate in a hurry, filled their stomachs, and went back to their rooms to sleep. It wasn't until the second day of the lunar month that everyone felt relieved.

Early in the morning, Qiu Qiu and others were invited to have a snowball fight with the children, and everyone went crazy again. The laughter and laughter echoed over the base for a long time and never dispersed.

In the days that followed, they ate, drank, had fun, and laughed with their children until the beginning of April, when the snow melted.

Everyone devoted themselves to the work of spring plowing. After all the crops were planted, Qiu Qiu and his party drove away quickly while the children watched reluctantly.

After returning to their respective bases, everyone continued to repeat the construction work countless times over the years.

Everyone actively opened up wasteland, planted plants, collected materials everywhere, mined ores, built supply stations in remote wilderness, and received survivors who wandered near various bases.

Level the roads around each base that can be passed by people and vehicles, and use renewable resources, such as solar energy, water power, wind power, various biomass energy, etc., to solve problems such as electricity and lighting.

And we are committed to looking for non-renewable resources, such as: coal mines, oil, natural gas, oil shale, various metal mines, etc.

Everyone is doing their best to change everything.

However, this year, except for the salt mines and copper mines they found before, they still found nothing from other mineral sources.

There has been no news for a long time since Jiang He led the team out.Everyone wonders where the prospecting team is, whether they have found the veins and mined the ore, and how are they living these days?Have you encountered any danger?

Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han had the idea of ​​​​leading people to search for ore prospecting teams countless times, but in the end they were rejected by others. The reason is very simple. Going out to find people these days is harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

The two of them actually didn't agree with everyone's idea, but in order not to worry the base residents, they still agreed.

However, in private, Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han used the space to look outside several times, but they all ended in failure.

Three years passed like this, in the spring of the 16th year of the apocalypse, Xiaoyu and Xiaoman from Zhao Huaian's family, and 17 adults over 20 years old, including Wuyun, took 33 seven-year-old children from Qiuhan base. , arrived at the happy base smoothly.

In the following days, a total of 39 children of different ages arrived at Guangming Base and Hope Base.

Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han immediately led 50 team members to find a new base, Chaoyang Base, which was seven days' drive away from the Happy Base and opposite the Xinsheng Base.

This time, Little Hope, Tangyuan, Dudu, and Congcong are all here. Little Hope is of age. As for Tangyuan and Dudu, they came to assist Xiaoyu because of their previous experience. Xiaoman and Wuyun do the planning and management work. .

Because there were few people this time, Qiu Qiu and his team, in addition to helping with the initial construction, built two dormitories, a restaurant, a granary, two processing workshops, a semi-enclosed carport, and a breeding field, as well as a town hall and two warehouses.

He also prepared sufficient materials for the children, made the first crop of crops, and harvested and replanted the second crop. After seeing them completely sorted out, he said goodbye to them, left Chaoyang Base, and then went their separate ways. Return to their respective territories.

Because of the long delay, it was already autumn when they returned to the base. However, what made people happy was that just a few days after everyone came back, Gong Longwu, who had not heard from him for a long time, returned to the base with two team members and told An exciting piece of good news for everyone.

That is, in the past few years when the mining team went out, Jiang He and everyone found iron ore, coal mine, aluminum ore... and even oil fields that were still being mined before the end of the world.

However, most of those places collapsed or subsided, and the machinery and equipment inside either fell into the abyss or broke down. No one knew how to repair it and did not dare to touch it easily, so they could only Send Gong Longwu back to find experts to help.

When Qiu Qiu heard what he said, she felt happy that they had lived up to expectations and found these precious resources, but also felt sorry for these people who had been exposed to the wind and sun for so many years. The hardships involved were unimaginable.

However, Gong Longwu didn't feel it was hard. Listening to what he meant between the lines, it seemed that he and Jiang He had come together. Everyone was happy for him. After so many years, he was alone, and now he finally had a companion.

"You guys have a good rest at the base first, and I'll leave it to others to notify the experts."

After Qiu Qiu greeted them, he sent people to set off at the same time to Qiuhan, Guangming and Hope bases to notify several parties.

Qiuhan Base has a large number of people, so 500 people and experts in related professions will be dispatched to support. As for Guangming Base and Hope Base, only 100 people will be dispatched each. Members of the three parties will all gather at Xingfu Base. Then they will set off with Gong Longwu to go to Jiang The location of the mineral source they found.

After Zhang Yi, Cao He and Zhao Jingyu took the orders, they each took a small team of people and set off at the same time and left the Happy Base that day.

After more than two months of back and forth, the members of the three parties finally gathered together. It was already winter. Everyone held a farewell banquet for the prospecting team, then personally sent them out of the base and watched them go away.

In the following years, good news came one after another from various bases and ore prospecting teams. Some of the lightly damaged oil field equipment was partially repaired by experts. The metal ore and coal mines Jiang He found had successfully mined ore and coal.

Professor Zhang and his experts successfully extracted copper, aluminum and iron, and gradually applied them to electrical, light industry, machinery manufacturing, construction and other fields.

Each base has now used hydropower and wind power, which has solved most of the inconveniences in life.

Currently, the experts are working on the communication aspect, because in the past two years, when everyone in the base traveled around and searched for various regenerative and non-renewable resources, they accidentally discovered more than 20 survivor bases of different sizes.

After Qiu Qiu and Xiao knew about it, they immediately sent people to these bases to promote the six regions and one district. They would open up trade and launch new currencies at the same time.

After several years of operation, currency has gradually become popular, and people are increasingly fond of using gold coins, silver, and iron coins to trade. Of course, food is still the mainstream.

Under the operation of these two people, these bases have already recognized Qiu Han Base as the official base, and are likely to move closer to them.

Mr. Lin and Mr. Wen finally felt relieved after hearing the news. Not long after, they passed away one after another. At this time, it was already 24 years after the end of the world.

Qiu Qiu and Xiao Han walked to the entrance of the base. They stood side by side and looked at the horizon at the same time. At this time, the sun was rising slowly, and the eastern glow shrouded the earth, giving all things hope for life.
