Chapter 209 The Silent Behemoth


    Jewe Sanctuary.


    Hall 15, Honeycomb Wall No. 02.


    Yang Cheng sat at the door of the capsule lattice and looked at the huge projection opposite.


    The daily routine news of the Waste Stone is being played above.


    "Xiaocheng, how many people do you think we have here?"


    "Using such a large area to produce food can still cause a crisis of shortage of food."


    His neighbor next door came over to chat with him.


    The other party''s name is Yue Ming, who is a man in his 40s with a somewhat bald head. It is said that he was once a small supervisor of a cosmetics company.


    And his question.


    In fact, it also comes from the news that is currently playing.


    A farm that looks extremely spectacular was present on it.


    Roughly estimated, it was just the part that Yue Ming saw.


    The area is more than the size of two football fields.


    It was huge than all the planting space he had opened up in the medium-sized refuge he had been in the past.


    But it''s just such a huge area.


    In the narrative of news reports.


    It was just a new breeding farm that was built in just a few days.


    It is far from enough to make up for the food demand of the new population.


    "It''s probably not less than 1 million."


    "The infected people in the entire Jianghe City will be sent here sooner or later."


    "In addition, two days ago, there were 150,000 people who moved to the new dormitory just through the lottery."


    "Fifty or sixty thousand people are continuously moved out every day."


    Yang Cheng had a little thought and guessed a rough idea.


    These data are all public information on the projection.


    Combined with the lottery every two hours, the relocation dormitory has never stopped from beginning to end.


    And there are often people around me who win the prize and move out, and then newcomers keep coming in to fill the vacant spaces.


    The credibility should be not low.


    "So many people."


    "No wonder I can''t win every draw."


    "I just said, it''s better that my luck is not that bad."


    Yue Ming was a little amazed.


    Not to mention that he hadn''t realized that he was in this place.


    More than a million people have gathered.


    That will be understandable.


    Why do we have to force everyone to be limited to grids with only two cubic meters, and we are not allowed to go out to move casually.


    So many people.


    It would be nice to have a place to sleep.


    If you want to go out for activities, you may not have to run to the surface.


    "In fact, whether it''s drawn or not."


    "Our luck is already considered very good."


    Yang Cheng smiled and saw more openly.


    Although I can''t go out during this period, I can''t go out, but through the news on the projector, and various details in my life.


    He could feel it.


    This shelter where they were housed was actually doing their best to give them the best treatment.


    Although his behavior and style are a bit dull, he can treat everyone fairly consistently.


    And fair, it seems simple.


    But even before the end of the world, it was a very far away from ordinary people.


    After reading the news.


    Not long after.


    A robotic arm delivered a mobile phone to Yang Cheng.


    This is also something that the lottery gets.


    It''s just different from the selection of places to move into a new dormitory.


    If you want to participate in the lottery, it is only if you don’t have a mobile phone available.


    And even if you win, you still need to pay off your debts through subsequent work.


    Seriously speaking. In fact, it is just like getting an opportunity to buy a new mobile phone through a loan.


    Take the new phone in your hand.


    The body, which is nearly two centimeters thick, gives people a heavy feeling.


    However, in terms of various functions, it is not much worse than ordinary mobile phones.


    After playing with it for a while, I tested the functions of the phone.


    Yang Cheng tried to connect to the network.


    The familiar social forums and various long-lost interactive messages made him feel like he was back home.


    But he was walking around.


    But I soon discovered some different things.


    He once met friends on the Internet, and any of them online now are counted as one, either living in a capsule grid or simply moving into a new dormitory.


    Their respective experiences were almost surprisingly consistent with him.


    No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!


    "How many people have been sent here."


    A faint moment.


    Yang Cheng felt that his previous guess seemed to be a bit too conservative.


    Perhaps, more than half of the people in Jianghe City have gathered here.


    The mainstream of Jianghe City has actually moved here?


    Didn''t spend much time on the forum reminiscing.


    Considering that I am still carrying a debt that seems to be a small amount because of my new phone.


    Yang Cheng quickly opened the designated game again.


    Next, he needs to work hard in the game and use game coins to pay off his debts.


    Like Yang Cheng, there are many people who discovered that the situation is wrong.


    With the birth of a sustainable healing agent.


    There is no longer a risk of death when infected with Rola virus.


    Many senior shelters who have escaped fear have discovered it later.


    After this virus catastrophe.


    The residents of their shelter have been greatly reduced to an unacceptable level.


    The worst is even nine out of ten rooms.


    From a large refuge that once had tens of thousands of people, it has fallen to a small and medium-sized refuge of less than 2,000.


    Even the most basic hydropower plants and plantations cannot be found to maintain them.


    You can only urgently reduce the scale and store a large amount of equipment into the warehouse.


    This time.


    Comparing the prosperity of the past.


    Many people suddenly developed an unspeakable loneliness and panic.


    Although the remaining people have more resources on average.


    But looking at the empty refuge.


    To a certain extent, being deserted is also a kind of horror.


    "At present, the total population of our shelter has dropped from 3.1 million before the virus outbreak to about 2.4 million."


    "There are about 100,000 people confirmed to have died or are still in various quarantine areas."


    "There are about 600,000 severely infected people sent to the Waste Stone Refuge."


    Official shelter.


    In a top-spec non-public meeting.


    The interior department reports the latest internal news of the shelter.


    The many senior officials who participated in the meeting were not very good-looking.


    Of course, most of them look down on ordinary people at the bottom.


    But at the same time, they also knew very well that the basis for their power was these ordinary people.


    Now one-fifth of the population is lost at once, and even more.


    In fact, it actually means that their power and status have been reduced a lot.


    "How is the situation in civil shelters?"


    Bai Rui''an, the director-general who presided over the meeting, asked.


    “They’re losing more severely.”


    "It is estimated that more than half of the population has been transferred to the Waste Stone Refuge."


    "Strictly speaking, the current deserted stone shelter is the main body of the people."


    "The others can only be counted as minority."
