Chapter 449 Idleness is also idleness
The official did come.
At least seven well-equipped teams of 20 men were lined up in a row.
They came with a mission, and when they heard their superior say to set off, they walked into the ruined city in different directions.
As for the sixth-class citizens who came with Anjiu, they stood obediently on the right, watching silently in stiff fear.
Anjiu and her grandmother took two quick steps and stood behind the crowd.
At this time, the leader looked over and asked, "Who are the two who just came back? Come out."
Grandma looked at Anjiu nervously: What should I do? !
Anjiu held her hand soothingly and stood out.
The leader is in his middle age, with sharp eyes and an aura of authority without even getting angry.
When he looked at her like that, my grandmother's palms broke out in cold sweat and she didn't dare to look him in the face.
The leader looked at the two of them and slowly asked, "Where did you go just now?"
An Jiu answered truthfully, "I didn't walk very far."
"Why do you leave your companions and go forward on your own?"
"I want to try my luck in the front."
"How is the result."
When the leader finished saying this, he was already standing in front of her and extended his hand.
Anjiu understood what he meant immediately, turned around and asked grandma for the cloth bag and put it in his hand.
The leader opened it and checked it in public.
There weren't many things inside, just a broken chair cushion and two or three bags of uneaten instant noodles.
The leader threw the bag back and said, "Except for the things inside, everything you collect later must be handed in. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"Go back and wait for arrangements."
Anjiu and her grandmother returned to the crowd and stood with Aling and the others.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded knowingly - half of the food was eaten, and the leaders did not like the supplies in their pockets, so they just took a look at them and returned them, just like the wine.
The leader didn't assign them any tasks, nor did he tell them to leave. The group of people just stood there stupidly.
Anjiu took a step back silently, holding Pu Huai in his hand to keep him warm, and using the space to feed him water drop by drop.
"..." Pu Huai tilted his head slightly, "I can go back and drink."
Anjiu poked his face with a smile: You're just sitting around doing nothing.
"..."
The struggling emotions rose and fell with the wind in the blink of an eye. Pu Huai opened his mouth expressionlessly. The moment he raised his head, his hair naturally fell back, revealing a little bit of his red ears.
He swallowed the saliva, looked at Anjiu's very happy expression, and sighed deeply in his heart.
Then he relaxed his body and let it go completely.
Perhaps in order to save his crumbling sense of shame, he thought bitterly, I should write it down first, and return it slowly when the conditions permit.
About half an hour later, the team that had left returned one after another.
They took hastily made topographic maps with various supply points marked on them and reported them to their leaders for the next decision.
After a brief but efficient study, the leader ordered all teams to collect the items in the order of importance he had marked.
"I'm going to give you a task now." The leader suddenly turned to face Anjiu and the others, "Collect supplies with the team and follow the command of the team leader. After completing the task, each of you will receive a salary of 500 contribution points."
five hundred!
When they heard this number, everyone's eyes lit up.
The leader was satisfied with this reaction, but added: "No private collection is allowed. Every material you find belongs to the hive. If you do a good job, I will give you some daily necessities as a reward on the way back."
"it is good!"
"We will definitely follow your request!"
The leader nodded and said, "You guys follow them, the captain will arrange your individual tasks later."
There were 20 sixth-class citizens present, and they all followed the team in unison.
The road was littered with broken walls and ruins and it was difficult to walk, but the team in front showed no intention of slowing down to wait for them, so everyone could only endure the pain and chase after them.
When we arrived at the destination, everyone was so tired that they couldn't say a word.
The team members who arrived early looked at us in surprise, as if to ask, how can we be so tired after such a short journey?
I don’t know who said, “Different physiques.”
It was a big help to these lower class citizens.
The captain frowned and said, "Then you will be responsible for taking out the supplies. You don't need to be very strong, just have brains."
Then Anjiu and the others were separated and followed the team members to help.
Grandma gave Anjiu a look, telling her to be at ease.
……
The officials arrived late, and after three hours of busy work, it was dark.
When Anjiu thought it was almost time to finish work and go back, the team members set up lights around the work area.
Turn on the switch and it's as if it were daytime here.
"Everyone has worked hard. We need to catch up on the progress tonight. If you are tired, you can ask for a rest, but don't be lazy."
The captain ordered the teammates who knew how to cook to cook and boil water on the spot, including some for Anjiu and the others.
When eating, each person was given a plastic bag and poured the half-cold soup noodles into it. This was the only portion for each person and no more could be added after finishing.
Anjiu found two broken plastic buckets from the ruins and ate from them with his grandmother while sitting in a sheltered spot.
When no one was paying attention, grandma shook her head gently at her, with a somewhat regretful expression.
"It's okay." An Jiu knew that grandma was talking about not putting things into the space. The team members were watching too closely and there was no chance at all.
But it doesn’t matter, she still has Pu Huai to help her.
After taking the last sip, my tired body finally felt much better.
While those people were still eating, she didn't care whether the ground was dirty or not. She leaned back, lay down with her eyes closed and took the time to rest.
Grandma lay beside her and took a nap for ten minutes, then she heard someone shouting for work to start.
The two separated again.
As the night deepened, the air temperature dropped sharply, and white air came out of the corners of my mouth when I breathed.
"This damn weather is so hot and cold, don't catch a cold!"
Team member A blew some hot air into his palms, rubbed them to keep warm, then stamped his feet, looked up at the dark sky, and muttered complaints.
His partner pulled up his collar, shuddered, and said, "It has nothing to do with the weather."
"Then what does it have to do with it?"
"Did you notice the iceberg on the way here?"
"hold head high."
"It's about that!"
Member A's expression wrinkled into embarrassment, "It melted?"
"Of course." The partner groaned, tightened his muscles and lifted up a Roman column that was broken into half. He supported it with his shoulder and waved to Anjiu to quickly pick up the supplies below.
She continued, "Isn't it always like this? It's spring now, how could it be so cold again?"
Member A exhaled heavily from his nose, "No wonder I have to work overtime tonight! But judging by the speed I'm going, I'm afraid I won't get much."
"Take as much as you can, and move back."
After Anjiu left, he took a step back and threw the Roman column off his shoulder with a rumbling sound.
