Countdown to the Apocalypse

There were still two months until the apocalypse.

The entire world seemed to have fallen into a period of stagnation. The country was prosperous and the people were safe.

...…

In a small mountain village in a small southern city, hidden in the mountains.

There was a huge wall surrounding dozens of acres of forest and fields.

If the entire base ignored the six-meter-tall wall and the three watchtowers, from the mountain, it still looked like a tourist attraction in the countryside.

However, if one looked at the sturdy warehouse that was thousands of square meters below, one would realize that it was actually a sturdy fortress.

The basic construction had already been completed. In the four acres of rice field, the yellowish-orange wheat had bent the bellflower under the pressure.

The garden at the side was colorful, and the 300-year-old camphor tree in the middle, which could only be hugged by five people, was still green.

The orange trees in the mountains bore a lot of fruit. They would probably be harvested in a month or two.

In addition, Li Yu planted grapefruit trees, naval oranges, pear trees, peach trees, kiwi trees, loquat trees, papaya trees, persimmon trees, and so on.

Because it had just been transplanted, many trees had yet to bear fruit.

Xin City was located in the southern subtropical zone of the evergreen broadleaf forest bioclimate zone.

As long as there were fruit trees and some trees that could be planted in this dimension, they were basically planted.

The water between the two mountains was calm. It was a beautiful scenery.

At the edge of the mountain pond, Li Yu even made three small fishing boats. There were many willow trees planted around them.

As the saying went, the willows in the setting sun guide the fragrant years, and the flowers fly far into the sky.

He looked forward to seeing the willows and catkins flying in the air in March and April next year.

Even in the apocalypse, Li Yu wanted to build a paradise.

On this side of the plain, next to the big camphor tree, there were five villas, a row of three-story single-story houses. The renovation work had basically been completed.

The warehouse below was also filled to the brim. Li Yu even built a small cold storage. This thing consumed too much electricity, so he could only build a small one.

Every time Li Yu saw the five-meter-tall, 2,000-square-meter underground warehouse, he felt an inexplicable sense of security.

From Li Hongyuan and Liu Fanghua's point of view, it was not so wonderful.

Although Liu Fanghua did not say anything during the construction, she had always been worried about this.

But when they were standing on the lookout at the top of the hill in the evening, when they looked down at the entire base from the highest point, they sincerely felt the beauty of the scenery.

Beautiful gardens, scientifically planned mountain fruit trees, preserved aesthetics, and abundant fruit trees.

Seeing that there were some livestock under the fruit tree, they were all well in the forest.

They watched the old hen under the tree foraging with a group of chicks.

They looked at the four Chinese pastoral dogs running all over the mountain.

They saw the beautiful scenery by the mountain pond, the wooden dock that was built, and three small antique fishing boats.

They saw a luxurious villa, a large lawn, and a green bamboo forest. There was even a small pavilion built in the middle of the bamboo forest.

In the center of the pavilion, there were two plaques. They were the replicas that Patriarch Chen Tuan had made in Luoyang's Longmen Grottoes.

There were also two four-meter-tall boulders that had been obtained from the quarry.

A simple and elegant aura greeted them.

What's more, they saw that hundreds of square meters of farms were also using ancient structures and zoning plans.

The methane tanks and septic tanks below make good use of the feces produced by livestock.

They saw the lake water slowly flowing out of the mountain pond, forming a stream that passed through the garden and surrounded the rice field. They saw a field of rice stalks waving.

They saw a small square of more than a hundred square meters with some amusement facilities on it.

From the depths of the 3-kilometer-long forest, a pool of spring water was dug out and connected to the side of the bamboo forest through a tube buried deep underground, forming a small clear spring.

When Liu Fanghua and Li Hongyuan saw the base that they had spent tens of millions of yuan to build, they instantly felt the same way.

This was great! Perhaps their son Li Yu's village tourism base would attract a lot of people.

However, why were there so many supplies in the warehouse? They had never understood. If these things were used by their family of five, they would probably not be able to use them all in ten lifetimes.

Li Yu's family was actually a relatively large one. Except for his youngest uncle, Li Hangcheng, who had been staying in his hometown, he had been helping to build the base recently. The other uncles were all working outside.

Li Hongyuan's name was passed down from his ancestors. Li Yu's grandfather gave the four of them an idiom as their name: Great Expectations (Yuan Da Qian Cheng).

The eldest was Li Hongyuan, the second was Li Hongda, the third was Li Hongqian, and the fourth was Li Hongcheng.

Li Qingqing, Li Yu's aunt, was the youngest in the family. She was only ten years older than Li Yu.

Li Yu was the eldest son and eldest grandson of the entire family. When Li Yu was young, he received the love of the entire uncle generation. The old man, Li Yushi, also often warned the family to be united and united. Everything would prosper if the family was harmonious.

Under his grandfather's philosophy of governing the family, the family atmosphere was better. There was no problem of brothers fighting.

On Li Yu's grandparents' side, his grandmother was a knowledgeable young man who went to the countryside. Later on, she met his grandfather. Overall, her family situation was much better than Li Yu's grandparents' family.

On Li Yu's grandfather's side, he had an uncle, Liu Jianwen, who had been staying in the county city as the police department's company leader. He had an uncle who had been doing business in the north and an aunt who had married into Beijing.

Although the population on Li Yu's grandfather's side was not as prosperous as that on his grandfather's side, the population was not small either.

Ever since he was young, Li Yu had been climbing trees in the countryside and fishing in the river. Later on, when he went to the county city to live and study, he still remembered that every week, Eldest Aunt would often send him some milk and fruits.

Eldest Aunt had a gentle temperament. Over the years, she had believed in Buddhism and had always been good to Li Yu.

Therefore, Li Yu had been thinking about this question recently.

How could he get some relatives to come back?

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't think of a good solution.

However, he made up his mind not to reveal that the apocalypse was coming.

It would save him the trouble.

After all, they weren't idiots. It was impossible for them to stay in this base forever. They couldn't possibly tell them that the apocalypse was coming and that they shouldn't run around.

If they hadn't seen the zombies, they wouldn't have believed it. It was easy to deal with one person, but it was difficult to deal with dozens of people.

Although Li Yu had made such a big move when he returned home during this period of time, because he had repeatedly emphasized it to his parents, they did not reveal much about what Li Yu had been doing recently. However, they could not resist human nature. Their families outside had heard about it, but they did not know what Li Yu was doing at home.

They only knew that Li Yu had started his own business at home.

There was only a week left until the National Day holiday. His family members who were away also had to come back for the holidays and return home to reunite.

After all, there were still some family members who had other arrangements and might not return home in time.

Hence, Li Yu thought of an idea. He would use the name of the village tour park that he had started as a business to get his family to come back and take a look. He would also give them the opportunity to provide some suggestions and feedback.

Coincidentally, the two families could gather together during the National Day.

After dinner, Li Yu chatted with his parents at the dining table.

Li Yu looked at his father, who was smoking after dinner, and said to him, "Dad, let's make this tourist base. It's almost done. Let Uncle and the others come back to play during the National Day holiday. They can give us some suggestions."

Li Hongyuan looked at Li Yu and slowly smoked a cigarette. "That's fine too. When will this tourist park of yours open for business? It's almost completed and you've spent so much money. Sigh, I wonder how long it will take for you to get back your capital."

Li Yu looked at his father, who had a worried look on his face, and understood his father's worry. However, there was nothing he could do. After being reborn, he had already thought about it. No one could tell anyone about the apocalypse, because no one would believe it even if they did. It might even cause unnecessary trouble.

He could only keep it a secret until the end of the world. When the apocalypse arrived, they would be glad that he had built this base early.

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was the National Day holiday.
