The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food
Chapter 906 The Prosperity of Yangshan
Chapter 906 The Prosperity of Yangshan
This is a typical large cargo ship used for ocean freight.
However, perhaps due to the long time that has passed and the high humidity, it is covered in rust and much of the paint has peeled off.
However, after the apocalypse, there was no longer any rust-preventive paint, so these ships could no longer be maintained.
Upon seeing the ship, Li Qinghua and Tu Long were once again filled with emotion.
They had already phased out such ships a year ago.
The once-luxurious President 7 was dismantled and melted down to make the aircraft carrier Yangshan.
This shows that this group of superhumans from the south has indeed not yet developed advanced rune technology.
It's no wonder they suffered a great loss at the hands of the Japanese and retreated all the way here.
"I just don't know how these Japanese were able to develop so quickly. Logically speaking, they should have been flooded much faster."
Li Qinghua had this question in his mind, and perhaps they would only know the answer after they came into contact with those Japanese people.
Soon the ship arrived at Yangshan Roundabout.
Qu Jin, Meng Hu, Guo Rui, and the others looked out at the distant Yangshan Roundabout, where they saw the huge islands forming a circle.
These islands are not simply green islands; some are icy plains covered in snow and ice, some are covered by flowing blue water, and some are huge islands filled with darkness, like abysses.
There are also islands with vast stretches of yellow earth, and islands shrouded in mist, which look like a fairyland.
These islands, clustered together, are all different and breathtakingly beautiful, truly awe-inspiring.
Li Qinghua smiled and said, "Everyone, this is our Yangshan Island Ring. There are a total of six floating islands here, which can be considered some of the earliest floating islands in Yangshan."
"In addition, we have five floating islands above the clouds to protect these floating islands."
"Now that we no longer have land, we have sufficient capability to counter any enemy, whether at sea or in the air. Please rest assured."
Qu Jin looked around, a puzzled expression on his face, and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Li, weren't you supposed to have six floating islands? Why are there only five different islands?"
Upon hearing this, Li Qinghua smiled and said, "Please follow me, everyone, and you will see it soon."
Amidst everyone's confusion, they followed Li Qinghua into the waterway between the roundabouts, and drove into the temporary parking area inside the roundabout.
This is clearly a huge port, with many ships docked here and a large number of ships coming and going in the waterway.
"Huh? Where did all those ships go?"
Guo Rui suddenly noticed that a large number of ships entered a blank area of sea in the channel ahead and then disappeared.
This greatly surprised him!
Upon hearing this, others immediately noticed it as well.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Li Qinghua with questioning expressions.
Li Qinghua smiled and said, "You will all find out soon enough."
As the cargo ship continued to move forward, it followed other vessels into the waterway.
As they entered the empty sea ahead, the space suddenly distorted slightly, and everyone felt as if the scene before them had changed, as if they had been directly transported from one place to another.
The once empty ocean suddenly became a huge port with towering buildings and many ships.
"Is this...another dimension?" Qu Jin exclaimed instantly.
Clearly, he already knew where he was.
Meng Hu and the others immediately realized what was happening.
"This place is actually another dimension?"
"My God, another dimension?"
"So this sixth floating island is actually a spatial floating island?"
"My God, if there were a floating island like this, and we encountered Japanese devils, we could just hide in this alternate dimension and wouldn't we no longer have to fear radiation bombs?"
"This is a wonderful place!"
As everyone chimed in with their own thoughts, they realized that Yangshan was truly different from them.
Yang Shan is clearly far more capable than these scattered, untrained soldiers.
They are even more powerful than some of the so-called big powers they encountered in Fujian and Guangdong provinces before.
Li Qinghua smiled and said, "Everyone, this is the sixth floating island of Yangshan. As you can see, this is a spatial floating island, with its own space inside."
"Because of the unique nature of this floating island, the floodwaters here have not risen very high. The high-rise buildings you see now are all pre-apocalyptic structures."
"Because the water level is not high, they have always been above the water, and people can still live in them."
"This port is called Yangshan Port. See that mountain ahead? That's our headquarters now."
The group went ashore and looked at the mountain peak in the direction Li Qinghua pointed.
All that could be seen on the mountain peaks were rows of tall buildings, their style completely different from the architecture before the apocalypse.
It is quite obvious that these buildings were constructed using supernatural abilities. They are made of huge blocks of stone, with a simple and ancient style, yet they possess a certain aesthetic appeal and technological feel.
Not only are there decorative vines on it, but also a large number of runes hidden within.
At a glance, everyone could tell that these runes were not just random scribbles, but most likely runes related to supernatural abilities.
Besides these buildings, the island's infrastructure is also extremely well-developed. Not only are there cement roads, but there are also various means of transportation, with various small mutated beasts used as vehicles and led around on the road.
There were vendors and shops coming and going, and even milk tea shops and bars—leisure and entertainment venues.
The bustling scene before me made me wonder if I had stumbled upon a resort or something similar before the apocalypse.
Here, there was no trace of the misery and despair of a post-apocalyptic world; everyone's face seemed to radiate smiles and joy. This was what truly shocked everyone.
"This, this place... how could it be like this?" Guo Rui murmured in a daze.
Meng Hu was also breathing heavily, muttering, "Is this really the post-apocalyptic world? How could it have developed like this?"
"Is this still a shelter? Isn't this paradise?"
"Look, look! There's a huge shopping mall over there!"
Suddenly, someone exclaimed excitedly.
Everyone quickly looked over and, sure enough, saw a large, seven- or eight-story shopping mall not far away!
The entrance to this shopping mall was bustling with people.
Qu Jin quickly asked, "Brother Li, is this really a shopping mall complex? What do they sell inside?"
Li Qinghua said with a smile, "We sell basically everything. If you're interested, you can go in and take a look."
Qu Jin and the others nodded hurriedly and rushed to the supermarket without waiting.
The crowd quickened their pace unconsciously and soon arrived at the entrance of the shopping mall.
At the entrance of the supermarket, several children were fighting over something. A familiar aroma was constantly wafting into everyone's nostrils, stimulating their taste buds.
Meng Hu's nostrils twitched slightly, and he immediately exclaimed in surprise, "The taste of spicy strips?"
Guo Rui and the others immediately looked over, and sure enough, what the children were snatching was spicy strips.
And judging from the packaging, it's actually the 'Weilong' series from before the apocalypse!
"You...you guys even have spicy strips?"
"Still Weilong spicy strips?"
Meng Hu was greatly surprised. More than two years have passed since the apocalypse, so how come there are still supplies from before the apocalypse?
Even if these spicy snacks were produced before the apocalypse, they should have expired by now, right?
Li Qinghua laughed and said, "They are all small trinkets. Some are produced by ourselves, and some are stockpiles from before the apocalypse."
“We in Yangshan have long since achieved self-sufficiency in material life. We have a lot of bean products like spicy strips here, and they are cheap.”
"If you are interested, I can give you some when you leave."
Upon hearing this, Qu Jin quickly smiled and said, "No need, no need, we'll just buy it normally."
Upon hearing this, Guo Rui quickly asked, "By the way, what did Yangshan use for the trade? Gold? Or perhaps supernatural stones?"
In this day and age, the only things that can still maintain their value are gold and supernatural stones.
Gold can weaken spiritual power, which is why it is now a hard currency in circulation.
Needless to say, the special energy stone is the main raw material for runestones, and even the cornerstone of various rune arrays and the energy source for various energy devices.
It can be said that the function of the power stone is more convenient to circulate than that of gold because it is more versatile.
Therefore, Guo Rui subconsciously assumed that Yangshan used these two items for trade.
However, Li Qinghua laughed and said, "No, Yangshan has its own monetary system."
"In Yangshan, everything can be calculated using integral points."
"From a small bag of spicy strips to a spaceship, everything can be purchased with points."
Guo Rui and the others were taken aback and somewhat bewildered.
"Points?"
"What points?"
"Brother Li, could you explain it to us? We're completely confused by what you're saying."
Li Qinghua smiled and said, "This points system was created by our leader. It was born about six months after the apocalypse began."
"With the technological advancements at our Yangshan shelter, the points system has now been integrated into every detail of our lives."
"Where did these points come from? Where are they recorded?" Qu Jin couldn't help but ask.
Li Qinghua casually took out a card and said with a smile, "All the residents of our Yangshan shelter will have an identity card like this issued by our human resources and social security department."
“Each identity card is unique. With this identity card, one can enter and exit anywhere within Yangshan’s territory and enjoy the rights of a resident of Yangshan Refuge.”
"This ID card has a built-in chip that contains a points record. Every time you make a purchase, it will be recorded on it and you can check it at any time on the machines in the lobby of our complexes throughout Yangshan."
"As for how points are earned, there are too many ways."
"Whether you hunt and sell your prey to Yangshan Complex, or to the breeding department or slaughterhouse, you can earn points."
“You can earn points by mining, farming and selling vegetables, doing business and so on.”
"You'll understand once you get to know our Yangshan Refuge."
"Let me take you to the mall first."
Li Qinghua introduced the place with a smile, completely ignoring the stunned crowd, and led them into the shopping mall complex of Yangshan Shelter.
For Li Qinghua, these people's reactions were exactly what he expected.
Because they were not the first to be amazed by the prosperity displayed at Yangshan Refuge.
Every time outsiders come to Yangshan and the Mirage Serpent Space, they are shocked by the environment before them.
Yangshan is changing rapidly, day by day.
This change is not only reflected in the strength of superhumans and the development of rune technology, but also directly in people's living standards.
