What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

Chapter 415 Demolition? We've struck it rich!



Chapter 415 Demolition? We've struck it rich!

The research on starships did not stop, and because of the previous successful operation of starships, the starship research team gained a lot of experience, and had a general direction for building starships with an increased level of difficulty.

They completely abandoned appearances, as those require abundant supernatural abilities and ample time to research. What they needed right now was efficiency! Practicality!

Whether it looks good or not is secondary; as long as it's useful and highly effective, that's all that matters.

Because the starship reached the minimum target line ahead of schedule, Lu Yize gave a large bonus to the researchers at the base who had stayed up all night and whose sales of hair growth tonic were almost a major source of revenue for the hospital.

They were also given a day off, which the researchers complained about. What's going on?! They didn't say they wanted a day off! Seriously!

Despite their grumbling, when the day of their break actually arrived, they were in high spirits and went out to have fun with their large bonuses.

The base now has more entertainment facilities than before, probably because life is relatively stable. In addition to the continuous development of food, entertainment is also gradually recovering.

There used to be a movie theater in the base, and it was quite interesting to watch those movies from before the apocalypse occasionally. Now, watching them again feels like a different world, and I even feel a bit sentimental and wistful.

Just as modern people once looked at ancient people, when they looked back at their lives before the end of the world, they found that they were no longer used to it. They used to have to manually obtain water and worry about generating electricity.

Resources are divided into many categories, and iron ore and gold ore still need to be mined by ourselves.

Since the nuclear explosion, they have fully entered the era of superpowers. Superpowers have solved most of the problems that once existed, somewhat similar to the Industrial Revolution, and have changed their way of life all at once.

Most of the books from before the apocalypse are no longer applicable to the present and need to be optimized and updated to better suit the current situation. The science discipline has undergone the most significant changes, from changes in matter to changes in supernatural abilities.

Before her death, Zhang Wenjing had been recording information about superpowers and classifying them. After working overtime every night for the past few months, she produced her first book on superpowers.

It may not be perfect, but it is the most detailed record of superpowers they have been able to explore so far. It will take time to improve it little by little.

Chang Jiamu recently traveled almost the entire base with Chen Ping, and also rode in Captain Morse's cool off-road vehicle.

They recently took charge of surveying the base area and planning transportation routes, because with the increase in supernatural vehicles, corresponding traffic problems have also emerged.

The speed of superpowered vehicles is fast, and accidents are inevitable when using them. However, since they are all superpowered individuals, accidents are not as common as they were before the apocalypse.

However, there was an old man riding a superpowered bicycle who knocked a young man on a skateboard who was rushing to do a mission flying. He really knocked him flying. This old man was not young, but he was wilder than anyone else.

He modified a superpowered bicycle himself, using a dual-core drive system that combined lightning and fire powers, allowing him to drive it at sports car speeds. And just then, the young man happened to pop out from his blind spot.

Because of the excessive speed, he couldn't stop in time and the young man was thrown into the air. He was stunned while in the air and only realized the problem when he landed and was surrounded by people screaming for him to be taken to the hospital.

The old man was so frightened he was dumbfounded. When it came time to pay the hospital bills, he tremblingly paid the bills.

The problem now is that the young man was delayed in his mission because he was hit and lost a lot of money. In addition, he will need to spend time recovering from his injuries. Although he didn't die this time, the doctor said he needs to recuperate for half a month.

Upon hearing this, the old man cried and begged the young man to let him go, saying that he was penniless. The young man thought he was deliberately trying to renege on his debt, and in a fit of anger, he reported him to Chen Mingzhang.

Chen Mingzhang took this matter quite seriously, as such incidents had been occurring frequently recently. However, this particular case was the most serious, prompting Chen Mingzhang to issue a stern reprimand and initiate a rectification campaign.

When Xian Wenrui, who was passing by, heard about this, he glanced at the modified dual-core drive car a few times. He thought to himself, "You know what, a master is hidden in plain sight. This old man is quite skilled."

The old man sincerely wanted to compensate the young man, but unfortunately, he had used all his universal currency to renovate these odds and ends, so he couldn't come up with any money. Therefore, he discussed with the young man whether he could repay the money one by one.

He runs a repair shop and actually earns some income every day. As long as he doesn't do anything reckless, he won't starve, and he can slowly make up for the compensation he owes this young man.

However, the young man refused to comply, because the old man's impulsive actions had caused him considerable losses, which angered him so much that he refused to communicate and demanded compensation.

The old man was at a loss, but Xian Wenrui was interested in what he had made. He stepped forward and said he wanted to buy the things the old man had invented, but he would have to make a detailed assessment before he could give a price.

The old man has many inventions, some quite unusual, and he's a real talent. Xian Wenrui spent a sum of money to buy his invention. This dual-core drive might be a bit dangerous to use in vehicles, but it's perfect for other applications.

Having received a considerable sum of money, which solved the old man's immediate problem, the young man finally calmed down after handing the money over to the young man. He realized that the old man had no intention of renege on his debt and even began to feel embarrassed.

Those who received money and those who didn't have now settled their misunderstandings and cleared up the mess, but it has added a lot of work for Chen Ping and Morse.

The base still has many rules and regulations that are not yet perfect, so Chen Mingzhang thought he would take this opportunity to clarify the traffic regulations in order to avoid more serious consequences in the future.

For traffic mapping, Chen Ping's tracking ability is needed to create a traffic map of the entire base, while Morse is responsible for collecting information. He is good at conversation and can collect information in a centralized manner.

Things are progressing relatively smoothly. Most people in the base are very cooperative, and residents along several important transportation routes are fortunate enough to be relocated.

When they heard about this, they were all dumbfounded. They had only moved in a few months ago, since the base had only been built recently. How could they have such a good thing happen to them?!

"Holy crap, before the apocalypse, I waited for twenty years for my family's old house in the old town to be demolished, and it still hasn't been demolished. I never thought it would be our turn now?"

They are actually quite satisfied with their current life, but the compensation for demolition would be better, so of course they would be happy.

Although only a few months have passed, the reason for choosing to change the two transportation hubs is that after three months of operation, a better path for improvement was discovered, and true knowledge was gained from practice.
