Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 247

The next morning Fred met up with Liam to deliver his answer.

"Last night we held a vote and the majority are in favor of moving. We will begin to pack, I'm just not sure how we will be transported. We do have trailers to move cattle but we only have one working truck"

Now that the decision was made, Fred was unsure how they would actually make their way over.

"Don't worry, just begin packing. We will send over vehicles and help you transport them. We will most likely be back in three or four days.

Fred nodded, "Okay, then we will work hard to get everything ready for transport. Thank you again for everything".

After getting a response from Fred, Liam packed up with the others and made their way over to the chicken farm.

The chicken farm was in rough shape but still fared better than Fred's Ranch due to the natural stream that they had nearby.

Jimmy walked out as usual, happy to see Liam.

"Boy, am I glad to see you!", he said, lowering his shotgun, "This heat has been driving us crazy".

Liam greeted Jimmy and looked around.

"How are you guys doing here? This heat has caused a few other places a lot of problems. Thankfully no deaths".

Jimmy waved his hand, "Nah, it's hotter than hell, but we're alright. The stream is still doing okay so we have water. Crops are a bit sickly, but we hope to still have a harvest. Most importantly, chickens are fine".

Liam was glad that they were holding up. He quickly set up his tables of trade items for Jimmy and the others to see. _{freeweɓnøvel.com}

Jimmy ended up taking the filtered water and food items, while the others took the remaining stock of sun protection, sunglasses, and clothing.

Liam received a few more live chickens as payment and set off on his way home.

Back at the forest settlement, Rayne went over to see the progress of the barn. She estimated that Fred would agree to relocate, and even if they didn't she wanted to see if they could raise some cattle of their own.

The many power tools and chainsaws allowed them to clear another section of the forest where they were building the barn and pasture.

Although it would have been even quicker if Rayne simply stored all of the trees, they still completed the job quickly.

The main frame of the barn was almost set up and they would be able to move on to the later stages of construction later that day.

Another good piece of news she got was that by the end of today, the rest of the solar panels should be attached to the houses.

Once the barn was built, they planned to install a solar panel on there to keep the animals comfortable.

While she was making her rounds around the settlement she decided to swing by the forest perimeter to see the irrigation system and how it was holding up.

It didn't take her long to find the small green hose that ran along the forest floor.
