Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus Chapter 246 238: Establishing a Search Team

"Under the current circumstances, manufacturing weapons is extrely difficult. Let's go search for a military base. If we manage to find one, we won't have to worry about running out of bullets for decades, or even a hundred years."

"Alright, let's start searching now."

Hearing everyone's thoughts on needing more bullets brought Li Yu so relief.

After all, if we really need to go to that military base, whose existence is uncertain, it's hard to convince people.

But even so, we must still make the trip.

Second Uncle listened to their conversation and had a thought.

He spoke up: "Li Yu, since the drought has just passed and there are currently no major forces around us, we can definitely form a team and start searching. Whether it's in the East or the West, we can search on the way."

Li Yu nodded and turned to Uncle and others, "As Second Uncle said, we're running low on bullets and so firearms are also having issues.

If we want to manufacture bullets, we don't have the necessary talent or industrial infrastructure here. Even if we did, creating them wouldn't happen overnight.

So,

let's start searching now."

Before his rebirth, Li Yu hadn't returned to his hotown and hadn't heard about any significant forces there, but he did hear from so people who ca from the Southern region.

There's a group in the South, they have more guns and bullets than they can use, in an era that has reverted to cold weapons. A group with ample bullets can make a significant impact.

Finding the military base is crucial.

"When we were in the military, we once went to the Western side for training. The platoon leader I ntioned earlier, he told about it, it's at that Old House Mountain, that area is restricted.

It might be there. We could start by checking there first," Li Tie said.

Li Yu upon hearing this, looked at Li Tie and said, "Well, now that we know a few places, Old House Mountain, Silver Mountain in the East, and Zhugao Mountain in the South, let's check those first."

"Okay, I'm fine with that," Dapao said.

"Alright, we'll listen to you," Yang Tianlong said.

...

Everyone agreed.

"Then, let's form a search team first. , Uncle, Tiezi, Gangzi, Tianlong, Dapao, umm... and bring along Ding Jiu, Song Min, and Xiao Hang.

At the base, Third Uncle and Second Uncle, you guys keep an eye on things temporarily. With you here, I'm more at ease."

Second Uncle thought for a mont and said: "Why not let Wang Cheng go too? He is strong, then you have ten people."

Li Yu thought about it, one more person wouldn't hurt, and said, "Okay, I'll talk to Wang Cheng in a bit."

Uncle, who had been quiet, suddenly asked, "When are we likely to set off?"

Li Yu and Second Uncle exchanged a glance. Second Uncle remained silent, and Li Yu pondered:

It's October now, according to his rebirth mory, a harsh period of blizzards and cold is coming soon. At that ti, he was around M City, and the temperature had already dropped to minus 50 degrees Celsius, and in more northern areas, it reportedly fell to minus 80 degrees.

That cold period claid many lives.

Later, from what he learned from people who ca from the South, the temperature here will also drop to around minus 40 degrees in a couple of months.

In their current location, such cold is unimaginable, the last ti it snowed here was in 2002, Li Yu's first-ever snowfall was that very snowfall in 2002.

Although that snowfall ca later than many people rembered.

But for Li Yu and many people from the South, it was their first-ever snowfall.

The frigid blizzard conditions were bound to bring them enormous troubles.

They had to make preparations ahead of ti.

In fact, Li Yu had thought about this issue earlier, so he built photovoltaic solar power capable of generating enough electricity to be converted into thermal energy, sufficient to power air conditioning or anything else they might need.

At present, they had a surplus of electricity, and not just by a little.

As Li Yu pondered this, he beca lost in thought.

Second Uncle, seeing that Li Yu was spacing out instead of responding after hearing Uncle's words, couldn't help but remind him, "Li Yu, your Uncle is asking you a question, when do we depart?"

Only then did Li Yu snap back to reality and after so thought, said:

"The sooner the better. We definitely can't delay this matter, although we don't know if it still exists or even if it ever did, but we need to act quickly.

Let's set it for two days from now.

There's just one thing, sothing I've been thinking about recently, that I need you, Second Uncle, to coordinate and plan to see how we should proceed.

...

Given the unpredictable weather nowadays, torrential rains, droughts, and possibly an extrely cold winter, we need to plan ahead soon. Second Uncle, what do you think about setting up an indoor greenhouse?

Since nobody lives in the underground floor of the two rows of residential buildings and there's enough space, those long residential buildings, but my dad said each floor is about 2000 square ters, which is roughly 3 acres.

Together, the two rows are estimated to be about 6 acres.

Second Uncle, could you find so people to refurbish this underground floor?

Also, I believe I bought a lot of LED lights before, there should be so grow lights among them, please look for them, get Grandpa and the others involved, experint with planting in this sublevel floor.

..."

Li Yu briefly ntioned this, actually, he had contemplated building indoor planting facilities before the apocalypse, so he had purchased many related devices beforehand.

But there hadn't been a need to use them until now.

In two months, they would face the icy weather, and preparations were necessary.

"Oh, I see. I was wondering what all that stuff in the warehouse was for when you bought it. Okay, leave this to .

Actually, we could set up steel fras for aeroponics in the air, or use soil, or other thods. We could plant lettuce, green onions, radishes, even try rice," Second Uncle suggested.

Li Yu's eyes lit up, his initial thought had been to make an indoor greenhouse or similar, but the idea proposed by Second Uncle was much better; his idea had only been to use the ground on the underground floor,

but based on Second Uncle's suggestion, by using the steel fras, they could save a lot of space. With 6 acres, if utilized well and elevated, it could nearly function like 20 acres.

And since it would be suspended, it was even more convenient to manage.

"Okay, I'll have Xiao Hang help you, he knows machinery. We can use a drip irrigation system, that would save even more water," Li Yu said.

Having delegated this task, Li Yu felt much relieved.

Food was essential, weapons were the tools to protect oneself.

Both were indispensable, both fronts had to be grasped firmly.

Because in two days, they would depart to search for a secretive military base built by the Governnt, Li Yu decided to relieve the departing mbers from duty, to rest well and prepare thoroughly.

These hidden military bases were built under threats from a major power back in the day; it is understood that these military bases were incredibly large, even though post-apocalypse, so were subrged,

or those who knew about them, died, sealing their existence forever there.

And from the mories before Li Yu's rebirth, only two groups had ever found such bases, though they were very small military ones.

But these discoveries allowed these two groups to beco powerful forces.
