Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Song Jia was paralyzed in the living room of Jian Chu's house. Even though the air conditioner was turned on in the house, it was still so hot that he couldn't help fanning himself with a fan. Water restrictions started, and there were several incidents. Once, when his brother got off work, he was trapped on the road because of a crowd and made trouble. It was almost dawn and he still hadn't returned. He was so scared that he almost lost his soul.

"Tell me, is the current water restriction because Qinghe pumped too much water to put out the fire, and the groundwater is not enough?"

When Mu Nan came with a pot of iced milk tea, he heard Song Jia shoot a hundred thousand questions at Jian Chu, and said amusedly, "Why didn't you ask if the underground water was burned dry by Qinghe's fire?"

Song Jia turned her head and saw the transparent kettle with milk tea in his hand, her eyes lit up immediately: "Didn't you say last time that there is no milk tea at home?"

Mu Nan asked Jian Chu to get the cup: "There is no milk tea, but there is milk powder. I made it myself. Occasionally drinking a little sweet one will increase happiness."

In the past few days, there has been a lot of commotion outside due to the water restriction. Last time Wu Zheng was trapped on the road, he was only blocked from his way. It was not dangerous, but what happened to Yu Zibai and Xu Ming later was shocking. .

In addition to the farms invested and built by the government, there are also many privately contracted farms. I don’t know if the atmosphere of being agitated by people in the past two days is too suffocating, or people’s ability to resist pressure is tight after experiencing natural disasters. Stretched to a limit, the collapsed emotions showed serious human-to-human transmission, crowds gathered to make trouble, newspapers were published in public places, and some people even burned the farm with the idea of ​​dying together.

This incident seems to be related to the previous news, which was accidentally photographed and exposed. A young man in his twenties disliked the bad taste of coarse-grain steamed buns. up.

The most lacking thing at this time is food. Many people want to eat three meals a day for a whole grain steamed bun. Although they know that there is a gap between the rich and the poor at any time, the news of this kind of news at this time is simply igniting people's hearts. The harvest was about to be rejected, and there were people who threw away food because they thought it was bad taste, and this person was dug out to be the only son of a privately contracted farmer.

Everyone was stunned, no wonder, his family has contracted a farm, and it is estimated that no matter how much food is lacking outside, he will not be short of his head, that's why he is so extravagant and wasteful. This kind of news in the past may be condemned, and all kinds of abuse on the Internet , but now everyone's emotions were at a tense point, and they were suddenly affected, and many people who had already collapsed and twisted gathered together and directly set fire to the farm.

It's just that those people didn't know which ones were privately contracted, which ones were funded by the government, and what was burned was the farm where Xu Ming and Yu Zibai were located.

Fortunately, it is now an indoor farming field. Animals and plants are all kept indoors. Without ID cards, even the gate of the farm cannot enter, so those people only set fire to the outside of the farm.

But this movement still frightened people a lot. If Yu Zibai hadn't called Jian Chu in advance, when Jian Chu saw the news on the news, he might be even more out of his body than Song Jia.

After this incident, Song Jia and Jian Chu didn't really want Wu Zheng and Yu Zibai to continue to work. They might be able to guarantee a little safety in the workplace, but on the way to and from get off work, after all, there are lessons learned from this kind of thing. When they were still in the city center, there were people who were robbing and killing government workers in supermarkets. This made them afraid.

But unlike Mu Nan, they have space and materials as their confidence. Now that the outside world is getting more chaotic, they have to work harder to keep their jobs, especially skilled workers like Wu Zheng, Yu Zibai and Xu Ming Farm who have good benefits and benefits, let alone lose them.

Because of this, the atmosphere in the small courtyard was particularly gloomy these two days. Song Jia didn't want to stay at home alone and think wildly. His brother was not at home, so he would just imagine all kinds of accidents outside and scare himself to death.

Although there are quite a few people in the Cai family, both Uncle Cai and Cai Wentao have gone to the construction site to move bricks, leaving a room full of women, and Guo Hui is not a good talker, so after thinking about it, he can only come to Jian Chu to warm each other, otherwise Yu Zibai is outside , Jian Chu may have frightened himself to death because of his own imagination.

Mu Nan saw that their emotions were so tense, so he simply made some milk tea, sweet things can effectively relieve the tense mood.

Smelling the sweet smell, Niuniu kept rubbing against Song Jia's body, but it was a pity that although there was milk in it, there was also tea, so it couldn't be given to the dog, so she could only push the dog's head out.

Seeing that Song Jia didn't give it, Niuniu smartly went to Mu Nan, its second excrement shoveler, but Mu Nan could only touch Niuniu's head to appease her. When people see it, he can even give some dried meat to Niu Niu.

Seeing that there was really nothing to eat, Niuniu groaned twice, put her head on Mu Nan's lap and lay down.

Jian Chu took a few cups, and the three of them drank the milk tea. Looking at the milk tea, Song Jia's thoughts diverged to the cow: "Are there any cows in our residential area?"

Jian Chu: "Yes, there are a few cows on the farm, but if you want to buy milk, you probably won't be able to do it in the past few years. The scale is too small. I heard that the upper management will recruit workers in a few days and plan to bulldoze the city center."

Mu Nan didn't hear the news: "Push flat? Didn't the virus research institute be rebuilt in the city center? Last time I saw news that the plague virus mutated after coexisting with the human body for a long time. Now there are still a lot of isolation People." Jian Chu also only heard from Yu Zibo that he works on a farm invested and built by the government, not privately owned, and some of the regular workers are staff with state allowances, and he knows a little more information. It is said that this Work can also be regarded as the coexistence of risks and opportunities, but this risk is also a relatively low-probability risk.

Since there is an action above, it proves that the virus has been completely cleaned up, otherwise the terrible plague and infectious disease at the beginning could be controlled within a controllable range, and no one can handle the outbreak of the rebuilding action, so the construction area must be safe . But this safety does not necessarily mean 100%. So many people died in the urban area before, and there may still be corpses under it now. There is always a contingency in everything.

The opportunity is that in such a big city center, once a first-tier city, food is definitely not something to count on. It’s been a few years, and there are high temperatures, snowstorms and floods, but there may be other things, Among other things, some gold, silver and jade articles can definitely be found, and there are so many shops. If you are lucky, you may find something useful for daily necessities.

In addition, there is a lot of steel, and even some machines in the factory, no matter whether they can be used or not, if the parts can be used if they are dismantled, then it is a profit.

Before, it was because the city center was surrounded by the plague. Before the lockdown was lifted, many people wanted to search and make some money, but they had the heart but not the guts. If they were infected with the plague, it would be more harm than good.

Now that the above is unblocked, and the construction is going to start towards the city center, then the opportunity will come.

When it comes to this topic, Song Jia’s focus is not on the gold panning in the urban area, but on her past life: “If possible, I still want to go back to live in the city center. I’m talking about the old city center. You can have everything without leaving your home. I can’t expect it in three to five years. I hope that in ten years, we can sit on the street full of traffic and eat skewers!”

Mu Nan said: "If the above-mentioned recruitment notice is really issued, I think there may be many private groups to go out to search for gold, rummaging through some machines or selling steel to the government can make some money."

Seeing that they ignored him, Song Jia strongly joined the chat topic: "Would you guys want to go? Treasure hunting, maybe you can find various cans that can be stored for several years."

Mu Nan shook his head: "If I don't go, I'll get tired just thinking about it. I'm self-aware of my physical strength, and growing a la carte is my limit to start a business."

Jian Chu: "I think, forget it, life is getting by now, why bother, it's not easy to be stable for a while."

Mu Nan agreed with this: "That is, when the chickens at home are raised, they will be bred in batches, and one chicken will be killed every week to eat, and the vegetables planted will be exchanged for food, and the grass planted will be exchanged for rabbits with me, Yu Zibai How nice it is to go to work to make money, and whether you are tired or not is the second thing to do, whether the virus has been cleaned up or not, who knows if there will be any mutations lurking."

After drinking a cup of milk tea, Mu Nan received a call from Qin Huai: "My brother called me home for dinner, you guys continue to chat, I'll get the kettle next time, you guys drink slowly."

Jian Chu: "Let's play cards together later."

Mu Nan shook his head: "No, you guys play, I can't even understand it. If you play cards, I'll take Niuniu over to play."

Seeing Mu Nan strolling down the stairs in his slippers, Song Jia said to Jian Chu, "Why don't you open up the balcony, and see how convenient it is to go directly from the second floor."

Jian Chu was amused: "Is it because you don't want to take these two steps?"

Mu Nan walked through the garage, the air conditioner was turned on in the house, and the upstairs and downstairs doors and windows were closed, so there would be much fewer mosquitoes. Passing outside would easily bring mosquitoes into the house, so the garage doors on both sides were unlocked, so people came and went from there. Garage walk.

Passing through one door after another, Mu Nan climbed to the third floor, just as Qin Huai put the fried dishes on the table: "Hurry up and wash your hands."

Mu Nan glanced at the table. Stir-fried beef with green peppers, stir-fried rice stems, and a plate of steamed prawns are all good, and they are all his favorites.

During the meal, Mu Nan told Qin Huai the news he heard from Jian Chu, but Qin Huai knew about it a long time ago: "This is the news that was released in the past two days, and it should have been planned a long time ago. Whether it is food or water, people are too concerned about the time. The public's reaction has always been within the government's expectations. When a tense point is reached, a message that can divert the public's attention will be issued to ease the tense atmosphere. .”

Hearing Qin Huai's words, Mu Nan thought so too. Now people's focus is on food and water. If they can enter the urban area now, it means a chance of getting rich is in front of them. The government's recruitment of workers can ease some labor costs. Under pressure, some other people who want to get rich will naturally be the first to dispatch the Nuggets, and they will no longer focus on the matter of this one-third of an acre of land.

No matter what things can be earned in the city center, people's attention will definitely shift immediately, and they will no longer gather on food and water sources. Even if food is still insufficient and water sources are still scarce, at least there is still a goal of getting rich ahead of you. .

Seeing the overall situation and controlling people's hearts, it is true that the officialdom has deep routines.

While peeling the shrimp, Mu Nan asked Qin Huai, "Then do you want to go?"

Qin Huai refused without hesitation: "I don't want to, I'm tired."

Hearing the same reason as herself, Mu Nan laughed and yelled: "Let's change our name. Your name is Qin Xian, and my name is Mu Yu. Together, they are called Xianyu Brothers!"

Qin Huai put a chopstick of beef into his bowl: "Eat more meat and fish."

Mu Nan fed the peeled shrimp to Qin Huai's mouth: "Eat more shrimp, Qin Xian!"

After eating and drinking enough, Brother Xianyu took a shower and lay down on the sofa with a clean body. Brother Xianyu continued to work on his game data. Brother Xianyu went from watching movies to slowly slipping on the sofa. One side of the face was pressed against the pillow, drooling in sleep.

Qin Huai took an ugly photo of him sleeping, and then printed it into a photo, and pasted it on the sofa, coffee table, and pillows, so that Mu Nan could see it immediately when he woke up. The world of adults is So childish and boring.

When Mu Nan woke up, there was another commotion, the daily life went round and round, and the commotion was different every day.

Two days later, Wang Xiaoli rented a car and came to drag the vegetables away. By the way, he asked Qin Huai if he had any ideas about going to the city center.

Qin Huai shook his head straight away: "I don't want to be rich and powerful these days, just a little food for peace and security is enough."

Wang Xiaoli couldn't help laughing when he heard this. To be honest, this is really not like the Qin Huai he knew at all, even if he and Qin Huai were just sitting in the same classroom back then, they couldn't even speak a word for ten and a half months. Classmates, but what should I say about Qin Huai, he is the kind of existence who is still a legend even after 10 years of graduation.

Needless to say about looks, among the ordinary 1.7 meters tall, Qin Huai, who is already 180 in his sophomore year, stands out from the crowd. His handsome eyebrows are even more beautiful than the stars with filters. Of course, these are not the point, the point How many people can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month in the first and second grades of senior high school, and this is only the money earned by selling study materials. Other competitions, the first-grade scholarships in the grades, and the scholarships for each major exam alone add up. Quite a lot.

It is said that someone once made rough statistics, from junior high school competitions to high school competitions, and the scholarships for the first grade in each semester add up to 300,000 to 400,000 yuan. Some people speculate that Qinhuai's annual exam scores are stable above 740 As for the grades, if you are lucky enough to get the provincial champion in the college entrance examination, school-level, district-level, city-level bonuses plus provincial bonuses, not to mention millions, but definitely hundreds of thousands.

At that time, someone asked Qin Huai how he planned to spend the money if he could really reward so much money. Wang Xiaoli still remembered that he was collecting his homework at that time, and heard Qin Huai say that after the college entrance examination, he would go to the capital to pay a down payment and buy a house after receiving the money. Transferring his younger brother to another school, he was full of confidence in his words, and he didn't feel at all that he would not get the top score in the college entrance examination, let alone that he couldn't afford the housing loan in the capital with his own ability, even though he was only a student himself.

Such people, no matter what kind of environment they are in, are not like people who are satisfied with a little bit of stability.

As a result, such a person who is not lacking in ability is still struggling with books. He may have planned for the next ten years, but now he is told that a small surplus in the family is enough.

It's not that it's not good, it's just that it makes people feel kind. People who have always scored full marks in the exam suddenly only got a pass line, and they also said that just passing the exam is enough. The gap is too big, which makes people feel uncomfortable for a moment.

Seeing that Qin Huai really didn't have any ideas, Wang Xiaoli naturally stopped talking. Everyone has his own ambitions. Others want to live an ordinary life. He wants to take the opportunity to save more money, or even start a career. The paths he chooses are different, but they don't hinder They are still friends.

And Wang Xiaoli really wanted to thank Qin Huai very much, because this time he was able to find the gold panning team and get the money back, thanks to Qin Huai and the others. He hoped that he would be able to repay this kindness in the future.

Knowing that Wang Xiaoli was going to the city, Mu Nan couldn't help sighing: "It's nice to be young." He probably won't have the energy to fight for the future in this lifetime.

Qin Huai glanced at the man who was only in his twenties and had a tone of seventy and eighty: "Envy? I can also take you to regain your youth."

Mu Nan: "Thank you for the invitation, I am too tired to refuse."

Qin Huai laughed, closed the door, and took Mu Nan upstairs: "Are you hungry?"

Mu Nan climbed the stairs two steps at a time: "Are you a feeder? Ask me at least three times a day, it's still too busy, so you spend all your energy in the kitchen?"

"I'll make you something to eat when you're hungry. Eat less snacks. Puffed food and biscuits are not things that can fill your stomach."

Mu Nan is about to refute this: "Isn't the biscuit? What are the biscuits for?"

Qin Huai pinched the back of his neck with one hand: "Did you feel bloated two days ago? It's just eating these snacks. Give me a few days, or I will let you eat porridge and noodles for a week."

Mu Nan hurriedly smiled at him ingratiatingly, and changed the subject: "Brother, if we don't have space, will you go to the city center?"

Qin Huai: "Yes, I don't want to devote too much time to my career, but the prerequisite is that I can guarantee our lives."

Mu Nan threw himself on Qin Huai's back to let him go upstairs, his feet were still shaking: "Brother."

Qin Huai: "Huh?"

Mu Nan put her arms around his neck, resting her chin on his shoulder: "It's nothing, I just wanted to call you."

Qin Huai smiled when he heard the words, his naturally stern eyebrows revealed the gentleness that can only be seen when facing Mu Nan.

The gold rush to the city center really diverted everyone's attention. Almost all the vehicles that can be borrowed in the residential area have been rented out. It's not that kind of power, it's just some people with vision before the end of the world.

Those wealthy entrepreneurs who stood at the top of the pyramid in the country gathered in the capital early, so the capital was also the fastest to rebuild after the earthquake. Whether it is scientific research, medicine or any other aspect, some other provinces and cities have more or less local wealthy businessmen , Those who are capable have prepared some materials in advance, and those who are farsighted have hung them on the lap of the country in the name of donations.

The earthquake was caught off guard. The first thing most people did after the earthquake was to collect supplies to accumulate capital for themselves, but some handed over their supplies to the government in exchange for corresponding benefits in the future.

Otherwise, an earthquake can be regarded as reshuffling most of the hierarchy of the rich and the poor. Why are there still people who are able to contract farms and buy land to build houses? These are all benefits exchanged with the government before.

Now these people have survived the initial difficulties, gradually developed, and there are people in their hands, so when the urban area was unblocked, they became the first batch of gold diggers, which is why no matter before or now, rich people It is getting richer and richer, but it is so difficult for the poor to become rich, because the rich themselves have capital that is far beyond the hands of the poor.

Those who are still struggling with food and clothing, even if they want to go to the city to pan for gold at the moment, without a car or no one, they can only watch helplessly. With some small powers, Wang Xiaoli couldn't get in this car.

As most people poured into the urban area, the chaotic residential area seemed to quiet down instantly, and few people were seen wandering around the small square even at night.

Jian Chu pulled a small trailer, and Mu Nan built a scooter. Two days ago, he saw a private store selling it in an online mall, and the price was not expensive. He bought one for ten yuan, and the new one was about seven or eight. It is new, but it has not been used by anyone. It can be seen from the wheels that it has not been slipped. It may have been dug out of the ruins a long time ago. There are many scratches on the skateboard, but everything else is good. It is rare to see nothing outside. People, when Jianchu and the others came out for a walk to fetch water, they played with it.

Seeing that there was no one outside, Song Jia even took Niuniu out to let the wind out. Usually, she would go to the river where there was no one to let the wind go. She would go home immediately after five minutes. She was afraid of being targeted and causing trouble. Niuniu ran outside.

Mu Nan used to skateboard when he was very young. At the beginning, he used roller skates, and he specially signed up for classes. When he was four or five years old, he was wearing handsome equipment and beckoning to the camera. The photo is still in the photo album. I became a skateboarder, and I stopped playing after my parents died unexpectedly.

After a few minutes of searching for the feeling, it slid smoothly on the square. Niuniu chased after Mu Nan, her tongue was long and her saliva kept dripping, and Song Jia watched it after a while. I have to feed the water once. Although it is night, the temperature is still very high. It is fine to run for a while, but it is easy to suffer from heat stroke after running for a long time.

Qin Huai also followed behind slowly with a kettle in his hand, occasionally seeing Mu Nan rushing too fast, he reminded him to slow down.

Jian Chu pulled the small cart with buckets, looked at the scene of people running and dogs chasing them, and said with a smile: "It's nice to be carefree."

Qin Huai laughed silently when he heard the words, he had already tasted the bitter fruit of all worries, the laughter now was only bitter before sweet.
