In the Tenth Year After the Natural Disaster, Follow me to Farm Chapter 2

Chapter 2 Land No. 3

Listening to Tang Lu's complaints, Xia Qing, who lowered his head slightly, remained expressionless, but his mood was extremely good. She had known for a long time that the Tang family would come, but she didn't expect that it was Tang Lu, the eldest daughter of the Tang family, who came.

Tang Lu, who had no brain, came, Xia Qing felt that the possibility of receiving the favorite plot increased by 30 %, almost ten stability. If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, she would have wanted to yell "Today is a good day" at the top of her lungs.

　　Everyone in the hall saw that Tang Lu actually condescended to stand in line in front of an empty desk, and they couldn't help but have different thoughts about leaving the safe zone to farm, a task that was regarded as "sending death".

Soon, the number of people queuing up for the territory increased from more than thirty to more than a hundred. The long queue turned two corners in the hall, like a long worm coiling in the hall.

Tang Lu glanced back at the people fighting for position, then took a hard look at the two soldiers who appeared to be maintaining order, but were actually here to supervise her uncle, and snorted disdainfully.

If it weren't for the fact that the military people were staring at her like flies, there would be no need for her to come here to smell the stench.

Until Tang Zhengrong walked out of the office area with someone, Tang Lu, whose face had been darkened for more than an hour, immediately stood up straight and showed a cute smile.

Tang Zhengrong, who was dressed simply, pretended not to see his niece, walked straight up to the half-meter-high platform set up next to his desk, and began to speak.

"Every resident of the safety zone knows that in order to combat natural hazards, our country's agricultural system has collapsed in the past ten years, and food shortage has become a major problem that urgently needs to be overcome. Thank you for responding to the country's call, taking the initiative to come to the territory, and contributing to the country's food production. As long as we By uniting together, we will be able to defeat all disasters, defend mankind's dominance on Blue Star, and rebuild our homeland..."

Xia Qing raised his head and looked calmly at the seemingly gentle man who firmly occupied the second-in-command position at Huisan Base.

“Residents who take the initiative to claim territory today will receive special rewards from the base: each person will receive two months of rations, five years of tax exemption on the territory they claim, and the state promises to provide professional assistance.”

As soon as Tang Zhengrong's voice fell, the hall was filled with excitement, and the queue instantly expanded by two more turns.

"But there are two points that must be made clear to everyone." Tang Zhengrong spoke again, his gentle voice becoming stern, "First, the land cannot be transferred or resold, and can only be inherited by the biological children of the land use right holder. There is no heir. After the death of the lord, the right to use the territory will return to the base. Secondly, the base will assess the farming situation of the territory every year. If the territory is not up to standard within three years, the territory will be taken back, and the people in the territory will no longer be able to apply for any positions and tasks in Huisan Base. "

After talking about these two points, the number of people vying for the queuing territory instantly decreased by more than half, and those who were still queuing began to hesitate.

The tall man standing behind Xia Qing asked loudly, "Mayor Tang, how can we be considered qualified?"

Tang Zhengrong was the mayor of the city where Huisan Base was located before the natural disaster. After the natural disaster, it was converted into a base. He became the deputy base director and was still in charge of civil affairs. The chief base director was a military general.

Since "Deputy Base Director" does not sound impressive enough, residents still refer to Tang Zhengrong as mayor.

Hearing residents' inquiries, Tang Zhengrong explained with a smile, “In the first five years, if the area of new edible plants planted in the territory is more than two acres per year, it will be considered as meeting the standard.”

It's only two acres a year, it's not difficult! The man breathed a sigh of relief, and Xia Qing's tense nerves relaxed a little.

Seeing a few people who left and came back to line up, Tang Zhengrong's smile grew thicker, and he waved his hand and ordered, "The first territorial ceremony of Huisan Base has officially begun. Everyone will gather at the gate of the safety zone within two hours after receiving the land. Base Send a car to take everyone there.”

Two hours? Xia Qing lowered his head, why are you so anxious? Are you afraid that everyone will regret it and refuse to go after receiving the land?

As soon as Tang Zhengrong finished speaking, Tang Lu, who had been impatient for a long time, tapped the desk with her white fingers and urged the clerk, "Hurry up."

The fair-faced male officer immediately picked up the land use rights certificate and handed it to Tang Lu with both hands, "Ms. Tang, this is yours, please keep it. According to regulations, the residents of the first territory can receive two more months of rations, please You can go to the desk on the right with your certificate to receive rations, supporting materials and seeds.”

Tang Lu, an ordinary person, pinched the certificate with two snow-white fingers, then turned around and took a look at the dirty and smelly evolver, her eyes full of pride.

After Xia Qing saw clearly the words "Land No. 2" on the land use rights certificate in Tang Lu's hand, he took a step forward and stood in front of the desk.

The male officer asked without raising his head, "Identity number, name." Xia Qing raised his voice and asked, "According to regulations, the top three can choose their own land and receive double rations, right?"

“The top three can choose their own land and receive double rations? Really?” The man in third place yelled, attracting the attention of hundreds of people.

Nonsense!

The male officer frowned and raised his head. After seeing the cold gaze of the woman in front of him and the green card she was wearing, he subconsciously avoided the eyes of this evolved person who looked like he was not a good person at first sight, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead.

If he said there was no such rule, this evolved woman would definitely catch him giving extra rations to Tang Lu and make a fuss. He didn't know what would happen to Mayor Tang if the matter came to the base commander, Major General Qi, but he would definitely not be able to keep his position.

His family of four all depends on his job for food. He was wronged, Tang Lu's preferential policies were not decided by him!

"you put…"

Hearing the words of the dirty woman behind him, Tang Lu, who was receiving rations, turned around and cursed. But as soon as she opened her mouth, she was frightened and shut up by a seemingly indifferent look from her uncle who was passing by.

Tang Zhengrong stopped his brainless niece and walked to the territory desk. He quickly looked at Xia Qing, who was half-bowed, and asked with a smile on his face, "There is indeed this incentive policy. Which land does the little girl want to choose?"

Xia Qing's muddy fingers pointed firmly at the territory containing a narrow strip of blue water to the north of the safe zone on the map.

“Here, land No. 3.”

The target is the most peripheral territory. Is she from the military department or from the Qinglong team?

Tang Zhengrong's tone was still gentle, but his meaning was very clear. "Land No. 3 is the outermost cultivated land cleared by our base. It is more than 100 kilometers away from the safety zone. It is very inconvenient to go back and forth."

Xia Qing pretended not to understand and spoke generously, "Thank you, Mayor Tang, for reminding me. As an evolutionist, I should go to the most dangerous and remote places to grow more food for the country and make more contributions."

Tang Zhengrong's smile froze for half a second, and then he officially glanced at Xia Qing's identity card and remembered her name, "It's very good that the little girl has this ideological consciousness. Director Zhang, please go through the formalities."

Officer Zhang was relieved and quickly registered Xia Qing's personal information and printed the certificate of use rights for Territory No. 3.

Xia Qing confirmed that it was correct, and collected rations and other supplies at the desk next to him. He went straight to the window on the east side of the hall and exchanged the points in his identity card for two large-capacity mobile phone power banks.

The power supply outside the safety zone has not been restored. Before installing solar power generation equipment, she needs to use a power bank to charge her mobile phone and radio.

Xia Qing walked out of the hall carrying her things, passed by the crowd of sallow-looking onlookers who were staring at the grain bag in her hand, and walked forward quickly.

Tang Lu was sitting in a car on the roadside, staring at Xia Qing with a "you're done" look. However, Xia Qing didn't care. Hearing the repeated announcement on the radio asking the territorial people to gather outside the gate, he quickly returned to the Evolver's dormitory to pack his things.

It is working time now, and most of the evolvers are at work, so Xia Qing only met one or two people when he entered the dormitory area. It seemed that he was back to get something. Xia Qing stopped and nodded to them.

During the natural disaster years, everyone was busy earning daily necessities and had no energy to pay attention to what others were doing, so when they saw Xia Qing coming back with a bag, they didn't ask much, just nodded and said hello, and left in a hurry.

Xia Qing returned to her dormitory and found her roommate inside.

When Feng Wen, the third-level olfactory evolver, saw Xia Qing coming back dirty, she immediately put down her makeup mirror, covered her nose and frowned, as if she was about to be vomited by Xia Qing.

Xia Qing was too lazy to pay attention to her. He opened the big lock on the iron box under the bed, took out the bags of luggage that had been packed long ago, stuffed them into the large canvas bag, and then bent down to pack the bedding on the single bed.

Feng Wen covered her nose and asked in surprise, "Did you really go to the territory? Are you stupid?"
