"I want each and every group to come up 1 at a time with the list of items you need carpenters and construction workers first and stick around I want your advice." I shout.the workers all rush over to me before handing me a list.
"I want the walls reinforced and barricades set up outside the walls to stop runners or at least slow them down." I tell them.
"Sir we all suggest that you get 2 more walls outside the first wall and increase the perimeter." on of them says looking at me.
"Sure explain why though." I tell them.
They put down a hastily drawn blueprint showing three walls all with different markings.
" We figure the first wall we can fortify with extra materials you know add in spike traps barbed wire flood lights the works make it kind of like the first line of defence." he says pointing things out.
"In the gap between the 2nd and 3rd wall we put traps. so if that wall is ever breached they breach right into h.e.l.l. We can put cat walks up top for quick travel and make them able to be dropped in case of zombies on the wall." I look over the blue prints again.
"Now what about the s.p.a.ce between the 1st and the second walls." I ask.
"Farming and civilian living quarters mostly for those that come in from the outside who we can"t trust right off the bat." I nod as that was also something I was worried about.
I quickly bring up the area map and start building the walls soon there"s 3 full built stone walls enclosing my area.
"I want trenches dug around the entire area to slow down runners what kind of vehicles will you need to get this s.h.i.t done?" I ask.
"2 Backhoes, 1 bulldozer and 2 dump trucks for max efficiency." he says looking at his partners for confirmation who nod.
I open up the shop and buy the expensive vehicles. These cost materials in the shop. I also purchase tools like a small cement mixer, shovels, saws, nail guns and planks.
"I want everything fortified." I tell them. They nod and step back waiting for other to step up.
Next up is the vehicle repairmen. I get a list of items.
I quickly build a garage and a fuel tank near it before stocking it up with tools. I browse the shop once more. we don"t have tons of supplies right now for super vehicles. I buy a few jeeps and a couple little gator mobility vehicles for quick easy travel.
Next up is the electricians. "I want each wall wired up for flood lights and motion sensor cameras. I"ll be putting up solar power so I"ll let you get that all set up." I buy them tools, copper wire, and connectors and 10 large solar panels and batteries. I also purchase a big truck for them to use.
They scurry off to work. Up next is the gardeners. I buy packets of seeds and some small tractors and explain to them where to start working. They request for more water sources and some other small equipment easy to get.
The most expensive to buy for where the gunsmiths they needed very special tools and forges.
The blacksmiths I had working on things like barbed wire and other stuff like that.
That"s pretty much everyone settled but I feel like I"m missing something. 1240 points left. I look over my group.
10 medical experts. knocking out 250 more points. I browse through the store and start purchasing medical kits and anti virus.
"Make sure everyone is to know if they are bit that we do have vaccines." I tell the doctors.
I start consulting with the carpenters and construction workers. Before we go on a small building spree. Cafeteria, small medical area, housing for everyone in the form of dorm style barracks.
I call the management team over. "I"m giving you basic access to purchase items. I"m going back to sleep what I want up and running first is coms and lights I want everyone to be able too see when night falls and people to be alert for emergencies set up shifts and get stuff done I"m going to sleep." I say pulling up the console and giving them basic access.
I head back to the truck while the whole area just starts to slowly fix itself into a well oiled machine all except for boat boy and his boat. Maybe I"ll make a moat of something later.
I open the back of the truck and slide in near the girls before closing the door and being used as a makeshift hug pillow.
I quickly doze off ignoring the sounds of voices and heavy machines working.
a few hours later I"m shook awake by a frantic alice. "Ryan there are people outside." She whispers.
I let out a yawn "Yeah they are kind of the reward we get for surviving. I was able to hire people to help us."
"And how can we trust them? There are so many of them." She says with worry.
"anything I call has 100% loyalty towards me. the people we would have to worry about are people from the outside." I tell her.
She relaxes a little bit. "But what are they doing?" I explain a bit before she fully calms down.
