Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

The colonel is tall, with sharp eyes, and exudes military majesty.

His sharp eyes swept over the aggressive Scarface gang and the people in the camp who were on high alert, and he announced concisely that from now on the fresh water source would be managed by the warships and no one would engage in fighting or causing trouble over this.

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the navy soldiers behind him immediately dispersed, surrounded everyone and controlled the situation on the scene.

When the scarred man saw the fully armed navy, his momentum suddenly diminished and he dared not be arrogant anymore.

Although he has a large number of people, he is ultimately just a group of rabble. How can he compete with a well-trained navy?

He rolled his eyes and said with a shameless smile, "Sir, we have no choice. We have no water to drink these past few days and we are almost dying of thirst..."

The colonel interrupted him coldly: "I know the situation. Fresh water resources are scarce now. I will arrange the distribution reasonably to ensure that everyone has a minimum amount of water."

The scarred man wanted to say something else, but when he saw the colonel's intimidating look, he shut up tactfully.

He knew that since the Navy had intervened in the matter, it would not tolerate him from making trouble any longer.

He rubbed his hands and retreated dejectedly behind the crowd, his eyes flickering, and no one knew what he was thinking.

At the beach, the originally noisy crowd gradually quieted down and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

The warships will naturally not occupy the water source, but to avoid further conflict and maintain order in the area.

The colonel explained to everyone the military's intention of taking over the water source and promised to distribute water fairly and justly to ensure that every survivor has what they need to survive.

Since there is not much fresh water, it takes half a day to get half a bucket of water. In order to ensure everyone's basic needs, the amount is strictly limited. Each person can only take 500 ml per day, which is less than the amount of two bottles of water.

After hearing the news, although everyone was somewhat dissatisfied, they had no choice but to accept it.

After all, they did not find this fresh water source, nor did they manage it, but now they can get water for free, which is a great bargain for them.

The ones who suffered the loss were Zhou Shuwan and his group. They had occupied the water source before. Although the flow of the stream was small, they could still get a few buckets of water every day. There were only about thirty of them, which was enough to maintain basic living needs.

Now each person is limited to 500 ml, which is really not enough.

Qi Mingyu comforted Zhou Shuwan: "It's good now. It saves us from spending time and energy on protecting the water source. We can focus on other things."

Zhou Shuwan nodded, expressing her understanding. "I know. There are more and more people on the coast now, and this water source will sooner or later cause disputes. It would be better for everyone if we hand it over to the military."

She paused, then added, "It's just that these 500 milliliters of water are really not enough."

Qi Mingyu rubbed her hair and whispered, "Don't worry, there will be a way."

The two had been married for many years, and with just one glance, Zhou Shuwan understood what he meant: "Are you talking about that seawater purification technology?"

Qi Mingyu hummed, his brows furrowed slightly. "I've heard before that the seawater purification equipment on their warships is functional, but its efficiency is very low and it consumes a lot of energy. Energy is in short supply right now, so they haven't used this equipment yet."

In other words, the warship does not have improved purification technology.

Now they have no resources, and there are very few people who know about the improved purification technology, but there are always some remaining equipment in the ruins of the base. Relying on the equipment of the warships and scientific researchers, it is not difficult to develop a complete improved technology!

In the next few days, Qi Mingyu was specifically responsible for this matter.

He and Tao Zheng went to find the pair of colonels, named Xue Chunjun.

Colonel Xue was a practical man. When he heard about this, he immediately realized its importance and reported it to his superiors. Then the warship selected several scientific researchers and a pair of navy officers to follow Tao Zheng and Qi Mingyu to the ruins of the base to look for the wreckage of the purification equipment to see if they could find anything to research from it.

Qi Mingyu and Tao Zheng do not understand scientific research technology and are only responsible for leading the team.

After working hard for three or four days at the ruins of the base, and even deploying large equipment from warships, they finally found a small half of the wreckage of the purification equipment deep underground.

After that, it was no longer Qi Mingyu and Tao Zheng’s business.

But both of them also gained some benefits from it.

Because of the clues they provided, the relationship with the warship became closer.

When Colonel Xue kindly asked them whether they were short of water resources and needed the warship to compensate them for some of the fresh water they didn't need.

Qi Mingyu was silent for a moment, then asked for some vegetable seeds, fertilized chicken and duck eggs, and incubation equipment.

Although Zhou Shuwan had no shortage of these in his space, the temperature was so low before that the breeding eggs would freeze to death in just one second outdoors, and the same was true for vegetable seeds.

It is inconvenient for the Zhou family to take these out.

But if the warships give some out and distribute some to the people in the camp, and they slowly grow and hatch them, they can basically achieve self-sufficiency.

So many years have passed since the end of the world, and the supplies on the warships have been declining sharply.

Therefore, whenever they arrived at a coast, they would send troops ashore to search for resources.

Breeding eggs and vegetable seeds are the most important resources.

Colonel Xue couldn't make the decision, but agreed to go back and help apply.

After all, the only fresh water resources and purification technology within a radius of dozens of miles are provided by this team.

It is reasonable and moral that the warships should be compensated!

Things haven't been going well at the camp these past few days.

They were short of water, so they had to use it sparingly.

I don’t even dare to make the big pot of rock mushroom fruit porridge that I used to make. Every day I eat grilled fish when I open my eyes and when I go to bed.

If you want to change the taste, you can roast the rock mushroom fruits, peel them and eat them.

After a few days, it felt unbearable.

When they learned that the people on the warship had found the wreckage of the purification equipment, they might be able to drink purified water soon. They were immediately very happy and looked forward to it eagerly.

Qi Mingyu quietly told Zhou Shuwan about the request he had made to Colonel Xue.

The latter was very happy.
