Chapter 36: Even Dogs Don't Eat It

While looking at Xie Lingyu, who was sleeping next to him, Li Fei suddenly received two system signals.

"The system indicates that the ore smelting plant has been completed."

Congratulations to the host for welcoming over 10,000 survivors. The system will reward you with a lottery.

More than 10,000 people? We must find something for them to do.

Li Fei discovered that only those who have registered will be considered his subordinates.

We asked these people to arrange supplies in the garden, and now they are almost finished. We can't keep them here for free. Furthermore, if so many people are unemployed, who knows how many conflicts will arise.

I want to draw a lottery. Speaking of draws, the last time I received Xie Lingyu's first blood, I was rewarded with a chance to draw the lottery, but it seems I haven't used it yet. Then use both.

 Li Fei lay comfortably on the bed, caressing Xie Lingyu's buttocks with one hand.

"System, draw a lottery." The turntable began to spin.

"Congratulations, host, on being awarded the right to purchase soil improvement materials."

Soil Improver: After use, it eliminates the zombie virus in the soil and makes it arable. Each improver costs 10 points, and the area suitable for improvement is 100 acres.

This is great! I'm worried about the lack of a stable food source. I can grow crops with soil improvement. It just so happens that the seed and fertilizer factory has opened. Li Fei was very excited, raised his hand, and applauded vigorously.

"Husband, I really can't bear this anymore. Please forgive me." Xie Lingyu muttered in astonishment.

Li Fei was speechless and ignored her. There was another draw, so he continued.

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained a German Shepherd military dog." Actually, you have obtained a dog.

 In his previous life, Li Fei loved German Shepherds and wanted to raise one, but his strength didn't allow it. I never expected my dream would come true now.

I got up and went downstairs, and indeed, I saw a German Shepherd standing in the living room. With his long body and strong limbs, he looked very majestic.

Li Fei went to the kitchen and wanted to find something to eat. I found some leftovers from the night before in the refrigerator, so I poured them into a bowl and gave it to the German Shepherd.

Suddenly, the man sniffed and left. Li Fei had no choice but to find another large piece of raw meat and throw it to him. This time, he began to eat it greedily.

Let me give you a name. How about we call you "Black Tiger" from now on? Li Fei, as usual, was not talented at naming, so he gave himself a name similar to Li Fugui.

Now that the mine is built, we can't waste time and start building the tank factory now.

Hearing the noise downstairs, Liu Xin also came down. I must say that Liu Xin is very responsible. Although I haven't seen her take any action yet, her attitude is certainly commendable.

"That's Black Tiger." Li Fei pointed to the German Shepherd and told Liu Xin.

"Oh." Liu Xin didn't care whether his name was Black Tiger or Black Panther, and responded casually.

 The two men left, worked the night shift, and then headed north.

"Tank factory: 200,000 gold coins, covers an area of ​​300 x 300 square meters, contains five tank production workshops, and can produce various tanks produced by the tank factory. It can also integrate drawings of other tanks into the production system.

The factory has a wall and a guard room, with 12 guard posts inside, dormitories, and a canteen, and can accommodate up to one company of guards.

Maximum production speed per day: 15 units. Construction time: 10 hours."

We drove all the way to the foot of Songshan Mountain, the military industrial zone Li Fei had planned. A tank factory was also being built here.

After selecting the site and setting up the equipment, Li Fei and the others returned. It was very late in the day, and after a night of hard work, Li Fei was a little tired.

Back at the villa, about to go back to the room.

 "Commander, please exercise self-control and don't waste your energy." After saying that, Liu Xin returned to the room, leaving Li Fei standing there in a daze, a frown on his face.

This is Niu being so straightforward. I remember your score was above 90, right? Sooner or later, I'll let you contribute to the lottery. Li Fei thought bitterly.

By the way, I haven't checked the twins' ratings yet, which is really wrong.

"System, check Gu Wanqing's rating."

"Gu Wanqing: Overall score 93."

93 points, one point higher than Xie Lingyu. The two sisters were similar, which was to be expected. After all, they were a perfect match. However, Li Fei didn't notice any difference.

The next day, everyone woke up early, only Xie Lingyu was still sound asleep.

 Li Fei stopped Gu Wanqing and the other man who were about to prepare breakfast and asked them to go to the regimental cafeteria to get some food. He also reminded them that they could go there to learn how to cook when they had time.

The two were fully aware of their cooking skills, their faces turning red with embarrassment as they walked out with their thermal lunchboxes.

The news of the squad leader's return of the beautiful twin girls spread throughout the headquarters like a gust of wind last night.

After capturing everyone's attention along the way, the two arrived at the regimental cafeteria without any hindrance.

The soldier in charge of serving food quickly wiped the saliva from the corners of his mouth and excitedly served the two people food. Just as he was about to ask if he needed help delivering the meal, the squad leader, Fan Tong, arrived first.

As he looked at Fan Tong, who was following Gu Wan Qing like a servant, the soldier serving food gritted his teeth in hatred and blamed himself for not saying so sooner.

When they arrived at the villa, Li Fei assigned Fan Tong to teach Gu Wan Qing and the other two how to cook. Fan Tong was so excited that he forgot who his mother was. He patted his chest and promised to teach them all his special skills without hiding any secrets.

But over the next month, there seemed to be more people around the cafeteria. There was always someone running to the cafeteria to see what they would eat today, some even running several times a day.

After dinner, Li Fei bought a batch of soil improvement agents and asked Liao Tian to arrange for people to use them in the west, improving a total of 100,000 acres of soil.

Li Fei wasn't idle either. The tank factory was built, and the tank manufacturing page was added to the system.

Open it and take a look. Currently, armed mining vehicles and Qunyu light tanks can be produced.

"Armed mining vehicle: 1,500 gold coins; Qunyu light tank: 3,000 gold coins."

Li Fei immediately ordered 20 mining vehicles. Now that the gold coins were gone, he needed to make money quickly.

So far, the mining cart that came with the mine had contributed a total of 4,000 gold coins.

If we ran at this speed 24 hours a day, we could expect to earn 10,000 gold coins. If we had 20 additional machines, we could earn 200,000 gold coins.

The income problem has been temporarily solved. The next step is to reclaim the wasteland and cultivate the land.

Li Fei plans to organize people tomorrow to dig the land first. There are no agricultural machines now, so they should start digging gradually. Their number now exceeds 10,000, and the number will increase in the future, so the work will not be difficult.

Jin Decheng was sent directly to inform Jack of these matters and let him sort them out. Li Fei now had to discuss another matter with Liao Tian and the others.

Now, the number of survivors is increasing. Everyone eats the same food every day, but the amount of work they do varies.

 If this situation continues, these people's enthusiasm for work will certainly decline, and some have already begun to slacken.

This is inevitable. This is the evil nature of humans. The end result of eating from the same pot is a lack of food, so we must find a way to solve this problem.

However, the people present here are either those who can only command troops to fight, like Liao Tian, ​​or those with more education, like Li Fan and Zhao Zhihong, who are incapable of dealing with the people's livelihood.

After a long discussion, Li Fei finally came up with a good idea.
