The Walking Dead TWD

Chapter 121: Potential

Jacqui has already made a plan of the prison, and it is now being pasted on the wall of the prison tower.

In fact, everyone has made a plan. Everyone put all the plans together and then voted to select the best option.

Jacqui, who has worked in urban planning, provided a plan that was a complete blow to the suggestions made by these people.

Her plan therefore successfully stood out.

With a new mission, Jacqui's negative attitude became more optimistic, and the prison gave her a new life.

At this moment, the three men sent by Boss Li were looking at Jacques's plan.

Their names are also very interesting. They don’t sound like names, but more like code names, Long Yi, Long Er, Long San, making Zhou Nan a little confused about who is who.

The plan is divided into five major areas, and this is the total planned so far.

The first is the living area, which mainly includes the four cell areas ABCD, the high-rise building area at the rear, and the canteen area outside. These places all belong to the living area.

The second is the energy area, located behind the prison.

This place is a bit "dangerous" because it is mainly equipped with Karina's new zombie energy, and it is transmitted to the power storage facilities through lines.

If the prison needs electricity, power will be supplied to the entire prison through the power storage facilities!

Since Karina came here, everyone has brought back all the generators discovered during exploration outside for Karina to use to make zombie generators.

Once Karina finishes her work, it will probably be ready for a trial run.

Considering that the artificial intelligence "Wei" will also be a big electricity consumer in the future, Karina dare not slack off in the slightest, and everything is carried out according to the highest standards.

The third is the farmland area, which is temporarily on hold because we haven’t found crop seeds yet.

According to Jacqui's idea, she wanted to expand the farm out to the outside of the woods, but this approach was questionable. Not only would the workload be too large, but given their current population, they did not need such a large farm.

Moreover, the farmland is located outside the barbed wire fence, which means that protection work must be done to the utmost, otherwise a wave of zombies will flatten the farmland and make all the hard work go to waste.

The fourth is water conservancy facilities. The initial idea was to connect to the river, similar to a moat, and simply surround the prison.

The uncertainty of the farm area requires it to be planned and excavated along the farmland area.

If the farmland is located outside the barbed wire, then this moat will extend outward to the outside of the forest area.

If the water flow is to be able to resist zombies, the width must be increased at least five times, or even more, than before.

This obviously cannot be done without a large excavator.

In addition, water needs to be diverted for irrigation of surrounding farmland, and preventing land collapse is also a big problem.

The fifth is the breeding area.

Jacqui initially thought that it didn't matter where living things were raised.

Just find a place within the barbed wire fence and build a shed to provide these livestock with a shelter from the wind and rain.

But Zhou Nan disagreed because there was a plague breaking out here in the play, and this was an unknown virus strain.

Symptoms of the plague included high fever, coughing up blood, nausea, weakness, subconjunctival hemorrhage, epistaxis, pulmonary edema, pharyngitis, rhinitis, muscle pain, and headache.

The causes and mechanisms of the plague's spread are not clearly explained in the play, but through Zhou Nan's repeated research, he has also come up with several possible causes.

The first is water source pollution. If the prison’s water source is contaminated, the virus may be transmitted to people in the prison through drinking water.

Then there is close contact between living people. In a closed environment like a prison, close contact between people may accelerate the spread of the virus.

A variant of the zombie virus may also be the cause of the outbreak. Considering the high contagiousness and lethality of the zombie virus, it is also possible that a variant of the zombie virus caused the outbreak of the plague.

Poor sanitary conditions inside prisons may also be a factor. Crowding and a lack of proper sanitation and cleaning supplies can cause or facilitate the spread of disease.

Moreover, due to limited food and medical resources in prisons, people may suffer from weakened immunity due to malnutrition and lack of medical care, making them more susceptible to diseases.

The last one is animal transmission.

Although the plague may be the result of multiple factors, Zhou Nan believes that animal transmission is the most plausible known cause of the outbreak.

The show mentions that Rick discovered a sick wild boar in the forest, suggesting that the plague could be transmitted to humans through animals.

The little pervert Liz has been dissecting rats and feeding them to the zombies. The rats she captured are most likely the ones that have eaten the rotten meat of wild boars!

The livestock closest to here were the pigs raised by Rick in the play. They died first, which also proves that this is most likely the reason.

It is also possible that the rat corpses came into contact with the water source, and the contaminated water was drunk by these pigs.

People are fine, as drinking water needs to be treated at high temperatures, but pigs are not so lucky. They usually drink untreated water directly.

But no matter what caused the plague, Zhou Nan felt that this breeding area needed to be farther away from residential areas.

At the same time, because no livestock have been collected yet, the fifth breeding area has been temporarily shelved.

After reading it, the three subordinates of Boss Li were full of praise. In such an environment, it is obviously not easy to complete such a plan.

But it is still commendable that Zhou Nan and his team have this enthusiasm.

The three of them looked at the vast land outside the prison, and their hearts became lively.

If this place becomes farmland, then they will have food!

And it seems that Zhou Nan's prison has great potential and is completely worth their investment and transaction.

You know, Boss Li is now having a headache about food every day, and Zhou Nan is also their "old acquaintance", and cooperating with Zhou Nan makes them feel less at a disadvantage.

After the three of them exchanged glances, the leader, Long Yi, said to Zhou Nan, "The three of us are here to share a piece of news with you."

Zhou Nan was so scared that he waved his hands repeatedly: "Goodbye, what I hate most is hearing other people's secrets."

Long Yi asked doubtfully, "Don't you want to know the location of the Nighthawk Club?"

"When we were wandering around Atlanta, we noticed you were searching for spies from the Nighthawks. If I'm not mistaken, you have a grudge against the Nighthawks, right?"

Zhou Nan knew that Boss Li was no simple character, and that Zhou Nan and his group were no longer a small force, so it was normal for them to be observed.

At first, Zhou Nan thought that Long Yi was going to reveal his secret to him, but if the secret was the location of the Nighthawk Club, then Zhou Nan would be happy to know it.

Seeing that Zhou Nan didn't speak, Long Yi thought that Zhou Nan had concerns, so he also said, "Zhou Nan, don't worry."

"We won't charge any compensation for this news. Consider it our welcome gift!"
