CHAPTER 927: CHAPTER 646: GREENHOUSE CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

Approach the riverbank.

They dared not go into the river, as there were usually zombies in the water.

They could only stay on the bridge, lowering pipes or buckets to draw water.

Even so, they still attracted zombies from the river, a dozen or so of them, wet all over, dripping water as they emerged from the water.

Some zombies were quite agile in the water, grabbing their pipes and pulling them down.

Fortunately, there were many of them, and dealing with these dozen zombies was quite easy.

However, it cast a shadow over them.

The driving school was only three kilometers from the riverbank.

But it was already late, and finding a new place was quite difficult.

At this time, Zhou Xiaou’s voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Brother, we’ve entered the driving school, it’s very safe inside, we found three zombies and have dealt with them. It’s a good place to stay, the walls are high, with broken glass on top. Quite safe, come quickly."

Zhou Zhisheng was delighted to hear this.

This was the first good news he’d heard since leaving the Western Alliance.

Since suffering at the encampment last night, he had paid more attention to the encampment.

And a kilometer away from them, a car was following them.

In the car, Old Zhuang’s face was pale, the journey had made him quite uncomfortable.

.......

Big Camphor Tree Base.

Nightfall.

The lights came on.

Since the zombie generator made a breakthrough and produced dozens of units, electricity was steadily supplied daily.

This significantly relieved everyone’s anxiety about energy resources.

Li Yu walked through the Inner City, seeing the framework of the greenhouse already constructed.

He was very pleased.

Seeing Ding Jiu heading towards the dining hall, Li Yu called out from afar: "Uncle Ding."

Ding Jiu was slightly taken aback by the title, seeing it was Li Yu.

Somewhat flattered, he said to Li Yu: "Director Li, you’re back! I told you just call me Ding Jiu, when you call me Uncle Ding, I feel uneasy."

Li Yu smiled and said: "I’m back. I see you have done a good job constructing the greenhouse framework. I thought it would take several more days, but as soon as I returned, I see it was already completed."

Ding Jiu laughed and said: "It’s all thanks to everyone’s efforts. By the way, Director Li, have all our sunlight panels been transported back?"

"Hmm? Didn’t I just send Li Tie to find you? I asked him to coordinate the sunlight panels with you. Didn’t he come to you?" Li Yu asked curiously.

Just then, Li Tie came over from the Outer City and saw Ding Jiu there.

Panting, he said: "Uncle Ding, I’ve been looking for you for ages. I looked for you around the greenhouse area for a long time, then tried calling you on the walkie-talkie but couldn’t reach you. So you..."

Ding Jiu widened his eyes and said: "Ah? I’d just put the elevator back in the warehouse. I left the walkie-talkie charging where I live, truly sorry about that."

Hearing this, Li Yu said to Ding Jiu: "The sunlight panels have all been transported back, more than twice the quantity you asked for, enough to cover 200 acres of land. They’re now stored in the Outer City, go check them with Xiao Qian now.

If all is well, tomorrow at dawn, start installing these sunlight panels, get the greenhouse built as soon as possible."

Ding Jiu nodded vigorously, happily saying: "Director Li takes charge, sweeping thousands of troops!"

Li Yu waved his hand.

Since Li Hang married Ding Jiu’s daughter, Ding Qingqing, the Li Family and Ding Family became in-laws.

But perhaps because when Ding Jiu first met Li Yu, he was too impressed by him, he always held a mix of respect and fear towards Li Yu.

He insisted that Li Yu must call him Ding Jiu and felt uneasy when called Uncle Ding.

Li Yu said again: "Thanks for your hard work, hurry to check on the things, and have dinner early to rest after checking."

Ding Jiu headed towards the Outer City with Li Tie.

After walking around the Inner City, Li Yu arrived at the Underground Plantation.

He was quite concerned about the seedling cultivation.

Even before he reached the basement, he heard Grandpa’s voice: "Truly professional, understanding far more than an old farmer like me."

Then, An Ya’s gentle voice followed: "Grandpa, the little techniques you’ve shared are very useful too. It’s getting late, why don’t you head up and rest first."

"No need, no need, I’ve got nothing to do all day, I just like hovering around the crops. If I don’t have something to do each day, I’ll easily fall ill from inactivity."

Li Yu’s lips curled up slightly.

He stepped in.

"Director Li."

"Director Li."

"Brother."

"Xiao Yu."

...

The different greetings came from An Ya, Xiao Shi, Li Peizhen, and Grandpa respectively.

The education in the base has always emphasized practical effectiveness.

Verifying theory through practice and learning practice through theory.

His fourth uncle’s daughter, Li Peizhen, was fourteen this year. She wasn’t very talkative and liked to delve into things on her own.

So she came to study agriculture here.

The younger generation in the base, some a little older, started participating in various base affairs.

"Hmm. Grandpa." Li Yu said to Grandpa.

Then he walked to An Ya’s side and asked, "How is the seedling cultivation going now?"

Hearing this, An Ya immediately replied: "We have progressed through seed selection, drying, soaking, scalding, and medicine treatment, and are now in the seed soaking germination stage.

The treated seeds are placed in this net for germination.
