Chapter 53: Self-reliance
"Go and install the lights all around, and try to illuminate this entire area." Wang Qiang instructed the two.

"Master, leave it to me!" Xia Xinyue seemed very motivated, as if she had endless energy.

Shen Xinlan's body had just recovered a little, and she was not as familiar with Wang Qiang as Xia Xinyue, so she just nodded and said "OK".

Before I knew it, it was already 1:30 in the morning.

At this time, the second floor of the underground garage under Building 6 was completely illuminated by rechargeable wall lamps. Hundreds of rechargeable wall lamps were placed on various pillars, and the light they brought was even brighter than before the power outage.

On the other hand, after the power outage, the owners of the entire community were in a turmoil. Everyone was asking why the power was suddenly cut off?

Then many people discovered this situation outside.

Of course, they were not sure whether the poisonous sun had disappeared, so no one dared to expose themselves to the outdoor light for a long time, even if it was light that was invisible to the naked eye!
However, they didn't dare to look, but they also didn't dare to stay indoors at this time. After all, the ashes falling from the sky were corroding the metal window frames.

Some of the window frames in some owners' homes have fallen off, and these owners were so scared that they fled overnight and no longer dared to stay in their rooms.

[Who can help me? I am hiding in the bathroom and I dare not go out! ]

[The ashes falling from the sky outside are so scary! My windows have fallen off, they are flying into my house, what should I do now? ]

[Everyone, hurry to the underground garage, it is the safest place now! ]

[Yes, everyone, come quickly, and then we will seal the door leading to the upper part of the underground garage, so that the ashes can't reach us! ]

[Is it the underground garage? I'll be there right away! ]

【My wife and I will be here soon! 】

[Anyone want to join me? I'm 186cm tall, 28 years old, and in good health! ]

[Me, me, me! I'm at Building 12! ]

[Everyone, gather at Building 14. Let's stick together so we can live longer! ]

Wang Qiang moved out a chair, sat there with his legs crossed, and read the messages in the owners' group on his mobile phone.

At this time, Shen Xinlan and Xia Xinyue also came back with boxes.

"Master, we have completed the installation." Xia Xinyue said.

"Well, you did a good job. Here's a reward for you." Wang Qiang threw two bottles of mineral water to them.

"There is no water or electricity outside now. If you want to drink water from now on, you can only drink these," said Wang Qiang.

Hearing this, Xia Xinyue paused as she was about to open the bottle and take a few sips, then carefully put the bottle of water away. Before the water and power outages, they could still boil tap water to drink.

But now, the water and electricity are gone. If there is electricity, there are generators. But what about water?

Going outside to fetch water from the river? Not to mention whether the water in the river is drinkable.

Just how to get out is a problem that bothers everyone!
So, try to save as much as you can in the future. Don’t drink up all the remaining water, which would be terrible.

"Okay, it's getting late, you all should go take a shower and go to bed." Wang Qiang said.

"Master, I want to sleep with you!" Xia Xinyue walked forward and hugged Wang Qiang's arm, saying coquettishly.

She knew very well that in the current environment, she could only survive better by clinging to Wang Qiang's thigh tightly. Otherwise, she would be like those people who were driven out before, and could only fend for herself!

But doesn't Xia Xinyue know her own abilities? Let her be self-reliant in the apocalyptic environment?
That's simply impossible! Therefore, pleasing Wang Qiang is what she should do most.

"I'm sleepy. How to divide the beds? You three can make your own arrangements." Wang Qiang yawned, then took Xia Xinyue's hand and went directly to the master bedroom. The door was closed, and the three people standing outside looked at each other. No one spoke for a while.

After a while, "Does any of you want to go to the other bedroom?"

After all, Shen Xinlan was the oldest among the three people present, so she took the initiative to ask.

"That bedroom belongs to me." Liu Ruyan said without hesitation.

Then, without giving the two people a chance to raise objections, he turned around and walked into the lounge on the second floor of the RV.

Click! The door closed and locked.

"Why is this person like this!" Yang Jiayi said with an unhappy look on her face.

"Sister Lan, then the two of us will have to make do with sleeping on the sofa," she said.

"It's okay. The sofa in this RV is quite spacious and comfortable, not much worse than the bed at home." Shen Xinlan did not feel dissatisfied.

For her, being alive, having water to drink and food to eat was already very good. Moreover, Liu Ruyan was one of Wang Qiang's maids.

The two of them were just outsiders. So, theoretically, it was totally fine for Liu Ruyan to sleep in another lounge.

But her attitude was indeed a bit bad, so it was normal for Yang Jiayi to be angry.

One night without words, the next day.

Wang Qiang set the alarm for 8 o'clock last night. So he woke up at 8 o'clock.

After turning off the alarm clock, Wang Qiang lay in bed for a while before getting up and getting dressed.

Ten minutes later, Wang Qiang came out of the bathroom after washing up. The first thing he saw was two little maids who were sorting things.

"Where are Sister Lan and Yang Jiayi?" Wang Qiang asked.

"Master, you're awake! They are outside sorting out other things." Xia Xinyue said as she stood up with a smile.

Wang Qiang nodded, then threw a bag of ingredients to Xia Xinyue, told her that he wanted to have beef hotpot this morning, and asked her to prepare it.

"Okay, master!" Xia Xinyue took the heavy bag of ingredients and went to the kitchen.

There is a kitchen area in the RV where you can cook all kinds of food. There are all kinds of tools in the kitchen, so you don’t have to worry about missing anything.

After getting out of the RV, Wang Qiang also saw Shen Xinlan and Yang Jiayi busy outside.

"Come here." Wang Qiang waved his hand and called them over.

"We will be living together in the next few days, so I have to explain some rules to you in advance." Wang Qiang said.

Shen Xinlan and Yang Jiayi listened attentively.

"I don't need people with their own ideas here. Everything has to revolve around me. Can you do this?" Wang Qiang asked them.

Shen Xinlan and Yang Jiayi nodded and had no objection.

"Then, Sister Lan, you will be a maid of this family like Xiaoyue, Ruyan and others. Sister Lan, do you disagree?" Wang Qiang looked at Shen Xinlan.

"I have no problem!" Shen Xinlan nodded. In fact, she thought a lot before going to bed last night, and guessed that Wang Qiang might let her stay here as a maid.
