Chapter 89 News from the official base

In the past, the old Taoist priests would come upstairs and use ropes to pull things up from below. Mu Qianqian and Zhou Ziyang were responsible for tying the ropes below.

But this time, it was Mu Qianqian who got off the little turtle’s back first.

As soon as Mu Qianqian stood firm, she ran towards the building and quickly disappeared.

Looking at this scene, Nan Ci subconsciously felt that Mu Qianqian was coming to find her, so she simply walked towards the door.

After waiting for a while at the door, I heard Mu Qianqian's voice.

"Nan Ci, open the door quickly, I have something to tell you."

Nan Ci raised the corners of his mouth and opened the door directly.

As the door opened, Mu Qianqian's excited face came into view.

Nan Ci didn't need to ask, just looked at Mu Qianqian quietly, and the next moment she heard Mu Qianqian speak excitedly.

"Nan Ci, guess what news we heard when we went out today."

"What news"

"The official has established more than one base. Anyone who is a survivor can go there without paying for supplies."

There is no such thing as a free dinner in this world, not to mention that under the current circumstances, even the authorities cannot afford to feed all the survivors who have defected to the past.

"There must be additional requirements."

When Nan Ci said this, he did not use a questioning tone, but an affirmative tone.

Mu Qianqian looked at Nan Ci in surprise, "How do you know?"

"I just guessed it, so what is the request?"

"The official denies that the base will be heated, but there is not enough fuel. All past survivors, based on family units, families of three, each have to pay fifty kilograms of fuel per day, and it cannot be plastic or paper.

For a family of three to six people, the daily allowance is 100 pounds, for a family of six to nine people, it is 150 pounds, and so on."

Nan Ci wanted to laugh at this request.

We need fifty kilograms of fuel. It can’t be plastic or paper. Then we need firewood.

Why don't you say it directly? To use such a roundabout way of saying it is worthy of being official!

As Nan Ci was thinking about it, he heard Mu Qianqian speak again, "Nan Ci, what do you think?"

Nan Ci did not answer, but asked, "You think it's pretty good"

Mu Qianqian nodded repeatedly, "Yes, isn't this very good? The official collective heating is definitely much warmer than what we heat ourselves. Living in an official base, with official people watching, it is safer and more reliable.

It’s guaranteed, don’t you think?”

Nan Ci nodded, "If you think so, there's nothing wrong with it."

Mu Qianqian was not stupid. Just listening to Nan Ci's words and looking at Nan Ci's reaction, she guessed that Nan Ci was not very willing to go, but she didn't understand why.

If you don't understand, you have to ask, Mu Qianqian looked at Nan Ci outside, "Nan Ci, don't you want to go?"

Nan Ci's expression also became serious, "Of course the official base has the advantages you mentioned, but it also has disadvantages.

In order to achieve better heating effect, the place must not be too big, otherwise the fuel will not be able to keep up.

The place is not big and can accommodate a lot of people. How much space can each person live in? I am used to enjoying myself. Two bedrooms and one living room are just right. A bigger one would be fine, but I am allowed to sleep on the floor next to others.

I can't.

It’s a little cold at home, but the place is big and I feel comfortable.”

After Nan Ci said this, he saw Mu Qianqian's face full of deep thought, obviously thinking about this issue as well.

After a while, Mu Qianqian sighed, "When I heard the news about the official base, the Taoist priest said that you would definitely not go. I didn't believe it at the time, but now it seems that the Taoist priest saw it clearly!



The old Taoist priest has lived a long time and has gained a lot of experience. He can see things more clearly, so it is not surprising that he can guess her thoughts.

Nan Ci didn't say much on this topic, but asked, "Are you going to go?"

Mu Qianqian's face was filled with confusion, "I don't think the Taoist Master will go."

She only said that the old Taoist priest would not go, but did not say whether she and Zhou Ziyang wanted to go.

Nan Ci felt that she might not have thought about it yet.

Whether to go to the official base or not is indeed a matter that needs to be carefully considered. Nan Ci did not ask any more questions and just said, "Why don't you hurry up and pull things?"

"Yes, yes!" Mu Qianqian patted her head in annoyance, "I've been thinking about this so much that I've forgotten the real thing. I'm going to go down now and change the way up. I don't have enough strength."

/p>

At the end of the sentence, Mu Qianqian smiled sheepishly.

"Go ahead, I'll pull it with the Taoist priest later."

It's easier to get some firewood, but the weight of the large flower pot is not light. It's difficult for one person to operate it, so it's better for two people to work together.

Mu Qianqian ran very fast, and her figure disappeared at the top of the stairs in a short while.

As soon as Mu Qianqian ran away, the door opened and Li Chuang poked his head out.

Li Chuang was originally tall and strong, but now he wears thick clothes and is as strong as an ox.

But at this time, he was lying on the door, his head sticking out from the crack of the door. Instead of looking majestic and domineering, he looked rather cute.

When this word came to mind, Nan Ci couldn't help but laugh.

Could it be that she was the one who coined the term "strong cuteness"?

But if you think about it carefully, it still fits perfectly.

He was thinking about this in his mind, but Nan Ci didn't show it at all on his face. He just raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Chuang.

Li Chuang smiled first, and then said, "I just heard you say that the government has built a base. Is it true? Where is the base?"

Li Chuang asked cautiously, with a longing expression on his face. He obviously wanted to go to the base.

Nan Ci didn't plan to go to the base himself, but he wouldn't stop others from going. When Li Chuang asked, he said directly, "There is a base, but I don't know where it is. Wait a moment for the Taoist priest and the others to come up."

Yes, you can ask them!"

Li Chuang nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay! You have to pull something up, right? How about I help?"

Hearing this, Nan Ci smiled and said nothing.

The rope is in the old Taoist priest's house. If you want to help pull things up, you have to go to the old Taoist priest's house.

In this special period, no one will let others into their home casually.

Especially since Li Chuang was going to the old Taoist priest's house, Nan Ci couldn't promise anything for the old Taoist priest.

As they were talking, they heard footsteps on the stairs.

When you get along for a long time, you will get to know a lot about a person.

Now, Nan Ci can tell who the three old Taoist priests are by just relying on their footsteps.

At this time, the laziness of footsteps was heard without asking. It must have been caused by the old Taoist priest.

Sure enough, after waiting for a while, the old Taoist priest walked out of the stairwell.

Seeing Nan Ci and Li Chuang, the old Taoist priest was not surprised at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "You two are waiting for me!"

Li Chuang immediately smiled and nodded, "Yes! Taoist priest, I want to ask about the base. I don't know if it is convenient or not."
