Chapter 57 Assignment of work
Quan Hao divided the refugees into several groups. The boys continued to pick up sea goods on the beach. After a disaster yesterday, the number of shrimps and crabs nearby at the beach was greatly reduced. Today they probably had to run a little further. He specifically told them to pick up more large shells. There are shells on the beach that can grow to the size of an adult's palm, and the meat is almost impossible to chew. However, Quan Hao didn't want to eat meat, such a large shell can be used as a rice bowl, and it is a good container for eating or drinking water.
The girls started cooking and clean the garbage around the camp. Only one night, there were a lot of yellow and white things on the nearby beach. The refugees couldn't even eat food, and of course they didn't pay attention to personal hygiene. Quan Hao didn't want his beautiful beach to become piles of feces and smelly. He was determined to strengthen management in this regard. In addition, the girls were also responsible for taking care of the patients. The main thing was the little girl doing it, and others helped occasionally. There was an old man in the camp, and the two children did not escape the danger of their lives. Among them, the child named Boy C was
Zi's condition is the most critical, with swollen whole body, sometimes breathing, and no food at all. Unless a miracle happens, Quan Hao feels that he can give up. He is more concerned about the elderly who are sometimes awake and sometimes unconscious, and the older people are becoming increasingly fragile. Three of the seven refugees who have not been rescued are elderly people, and the remaining one is the only one left. Quan Hao hopes that he can hold on. Generally speaking, the elderly are more knowledgeable. If he can live, he might be able to find some useful information from him.
Two of the adult women were weak and were left in the camp to do the same thing as the girls. The other nine Quanhao each sent a wooden robbery to ask them to fish in the sea. The wooden guns were all left by him when he first went to the island to do it. If they were well used, they were more efficient than fishing rods on the nearshore.
Finally, the adult men were called together by Quan Hao. They received special treatment for food, so they naturally had to bear the responsibility of being worthy of this treatment. Quan Hao directed them to carry the bodies of the dead refugees to the shore and dug a large pit away from the camp to bury them. It was both humane and to prevent epidemics. These men had complicated expressions when burying the bodies, but no one showed obvious sadness.
It’s strange to say that this refugee group is. Even the dead, including the number 48, did not have any reasonable relationship with any two people. How did they get together?
Because of changing the large pot, the efficiency of cooking has been greatly improved. The large pot can hold nearly ten kilograms of rice at a time, and refugees can arrange all meals by dividing them into two groups. Excluding adult men, the rest of the people can be arranged in one group. There is also an advantage in doing so. Adult men often rely on their strong and strong snatching food. As long as the meal time between them and others is staggered, conflicts and frictions can be effectively reduced.
But the first few meals were still supervised by Quan Hao. If he hadn't watched him, the refugees who had been suffering from hunger for a long time would still habitually snatch them into a ball. He tried his best to teach them to abide by the rules, but the effect was average. Perhaps they had to wait a few days before their hunger, and they knew that those in front of the queue would not eat more, and those in the queue would not be hungry. They all had the same amount of rice, so that they would not eat like a war every time they ate.
Fortunately, this situation only happened next to the rice pot. The other two big pots were also open, but the front was in order. Quan Hao had long said that he could eat seafood casually, and this was also a pity for others. The refugees didn't feel heartbroken even if they had eaten their stomachs. They were less than forty mouths, and it was impossible to eat all the seafood on the island. Unfortunately, the whole pot of shrimps and crabs are tempting in color, but not as popular as the most ordinary white rice. It seems that no matter in ancient and modern times, only limited quantities are considered good.
After breakfast, Quan Hao gathered the men and each gave them a plastic bucket. There was not much left in the island's drinking water and had to be replenished. Because the water source is very far away and he had to bear the weight on the return trip, he only arranged eleven men to do this job. A bucket of water filled with about twenty liters, which was converted into a weight of twenty kilograms. Twenty kilograms were no problem for a healthy ancient man. Although they were relatively short, they generally had calluses on their palms, thick knuckles, and obvious wear marks on their exposed shoulders. At first glance, they were doing heavy physical work all year round, so their strength was far greater than that of Quan Hao, a young urban man who could not bear the shoulders and could not lift them. However, after floating on the sea for four or five days, he did not know how much their physical strength would be reduced. He only knew that more than one hundred liters of water had to be transported back to meet the needs of the refugee camp for a day.
Others should do whatever they should do. Quan Hao specifically reminds everyone not to get close to the cellar where things are stored. If anyone dares to violate it, the person who finds it will report it to him, and he will also reward him without hesitation. He cannot guarantee that the ban will last for a long time, but at least it should play a role before the refugees get familiar with each other.
Then Quan Hao led a small team of people to the mountain. Because there was fog, the physical condition of most people was taken care of. The team was not moving fast. First, it was more than three kilometers of sandy road, and then climbed the mountain pass. To keep it confidential, he specially led them around the direction where they could see the granite palace. The men did not know whether they were not good at speaking or did not dare to speak in front of Quan Hao, but most of them were silent along the way. Only after passing the mountain pass and another world appeared in front of them, the team began to become active.
Similar to Quan Hao's first experience, they were also shocked by the vibrant scene in front of them. Compared with the barren Northern Peninsula, the Southern Peninsula is a treasure house full of food. Especially the two worlds that are only separated by a mountain but are completely different, which makes them overjoyed by the desolate scenes of the Northern Peninsula. The men did not dare to stay away from the team, pick various fruits from trees nearby, stuffed them into their mouths and hung them on their bodies. If they couldn't hold on, pick banana leaves to wrap them. More leaves were draped on their bodies, after all, their clothes were not much better than leaves. So soon their bodies turned into colorful green. Quan Hao had to let them go at first, but later they had to stop them. If he didn't say anything, these greedy people would even open the plastic buckets to fill with fruits.
