Natural Disaster Apocalypse

I didn't want Mu Nan to put too much thought on the matter just now, so Qin Huai found something for him to do as soon as he got home: "Look at what kind of rice the rice is distributed, if it's okay, we can keep it for food, if not It’s not very good, you can put it away first, this kind of two catties and a small bag is vacuum-packed, and it will be convenient to do business with people in the future.”

As far as the current situation is concerned, the trend of trading food in the future is certain. Although they may not have anything to trade with others, there is always a contingency in everything. Using such things issued by the government to trade with people can still Save a lot of things.

Mu Nan didn't need to look at it to know that the rice was ordinary rice, with some coarse grains mixed in, which was obviously prepared by the government for distribution of supplies later: "It should be quite ordinary. Look, there are coarse grains in it, which are all made up for the amount , let’s save what you got, the noodles are not tasty, they taste like mushrooms.”

Mushroom flavor and seafood flavor are the least popular among instant noodles. Of course, there must be a small number of people who like to eat them. Otherwise, there is no market and they will not make these two flavors, but most people don’t like them. The rush to buy food before the closure, and the frenzied hoarding of goods later, it is not that there is no choice, people will not start with these two flavors.

Unexpectedly, these two flavors still attacked them, and the free supplies distributed by the government are not up to anyone to choose.

Some people couldn't help complaining on the Internet, eat this, it's really not delicious, don't eat it, the family is about to run out of food, the government doesn't think about them at all, can't they try to distribute some tastes of the public as much as possible.

There are some people who are very lucky. It is estimated that there are a lot of people in the family, and each person gets a portion. For a family of four or five, there are several bags. What they get is either the pepper flavor or the braised flavor.

Mu Nan sighed, his luck has never been very good, oh, it can't be said that, in other things, such as his daily life, playing games, lottery draws and so on, he will always be the top African chieftain, maybe it's just because he put all his life Luck was used to meet Qin Huai and gain space. Thinking about it this way, he felt that he was absolutely God's own son, and Ou Huang had no choice but to run away.

After Qin Huai came out of the shower, he saw Mu Nan leaning on the bed and scrolling through his phone, laughing, and said with a smile, "What are you looking at? Is there anything interesting?"

Mu Nan took the phone and turned the screen to Qin Huai: "Look at other people's houses, they all taste like pepper and braised, how lucky you are."

Qin Huai: "The shiitake mushrooms are also fine. Don't eat the seasoning package, just take out the noodle cake and cook it yourself. Now many people may not have much food at home, but there should still be some seasoning. Except for salt, you Looking at the online supermarket, there are more restrictions on purchases such as pepper and monosodium glutamate, and the seasoning packets can be used as soup packets in the future, and although there are not many dried vegetables, they are still vegetables.”

Qin Huai didn't say anything, but Mu Nan really didn't expect it to be like this, probably because he couldn't turn his head around and thought that the instant noodles with mushrooms can only be eaten with mushroom flavor.

"Let's keep it for now. We don't eat it anyway. What shall we eat next? Or eat shrimp and cold noodles. The one we used to eat at was the one we used to eat. I bought a lot of them later. Unfortunately, shrimp is so expensive. If it weren't for the money you called me all these years and I hadn't used it, and I could buy some things with the savings, I was thinking at that time, should I sell my house and live with you, and buy some money Supplies."

Their old houses are not very easy to sell. Although the location is very good, the environment is very bad. Even in the central city, they can’t sell at a price. A large part of Mu Nan’s refusal to sell the house is troublesome. Transfer, find a buyer Ah, if you have that time, you might as well go to places with high food production to buy goods, and getting a loan is faster than selling a house.

When Qin Huai just came back, Mu Nan seldom mentioned the past, most of them were planning for future stockpiling, and the most he told him was what kind of protection could he buy in the extreme situations he had dreamed about in the future Their lives. Listening to Mu Nan occasionally mentioning the past, talking about some things that happened when he was buying supplies and hoarding goods, and what happened between him and his comic editor and comic readers in the past, although he still seldom mentioned life in school, But Qin Huai is very happy to be able to do this, the distance is not alienated in a day, nor can it be shortened in a day.

Seeing the expression on his face while taking the shrimp out, carefully peeking at him, for fear that he would not let him eat it, Qin Huai's heart softened for a while, but he still had a firm heart: "Put it in the oil."

Mu Nan grimaced for a second.

Qin Huai smiled: "You are allowed to eat two servings of steamed shrimp."

The little bitter face smiled instantly.

Shrimp and cold noodles were obviously not enough for the two of them, so Mu Nan took out a plate of cold edamame, a plate of dried shredded lotus root, and a large portion of soup dumplings. of.

I found a lively variety show on my notebook, and the two sat on a small stool, happily sucking shrimp around the small round coffee table: "Brother, turn on the small fan too, it's a bit hot."

The temperature of their air conditioner is not too low. If they don’t move much, the temperature is just right, but eating is sometimes a physical effort, especially eating shrimp. In addition, I just came back from the outside and just took a bath, and my heart is still not calm. After getting down, the heat on the body did not drop naturally, so turning on a small fan was just right in such an air-conditioned room.

Qin Huai got up to turn on a small fan, just like the old usb fan, a little bigger than a palm, put it in front of them while eating and blowing it, it won't be too cold but just enough to dissipate the heat.

The prawns are naturally delicious if eaten separately. Mu Nan didn't rush to eat cold noodles, but peeled all the steamed prawns and put them on the plate, so that if Qin Huai wants to eat them, he can just dip them in the ingredients and don't need to dirty his hands . But Qin Huai just ate two or three of them, if he didn't eat one, Mu Nan would definitely stuff it in his mouth.

Seeing that Mu Nan didn't even spare the shrimp heads, Qin Huai said, "There aren't many shrimp roe, don't bother."

Mu Nan clicked his tongue lightly: "Besides the shrimp meat, this is the most delicious thing. I will finish it one by one slowly." He used to love to eat it, and now he can't waste it. After all, this is one less portion at a time. something.

Qin Huai thought to himself, besides the meat of a shrimp, there is only a shrimp head left, but seeing that Mu Nan picked carefully, and also paid attention not to eat the dirty things in the shrimp head, so he let him go.

After a while, there was the sound of the elevator door opening in the corridor. The sound of footsteps should be a person. Mu Nan's hands were dirty peeling shrimp, so he asked Qin Huai to ask in the group if Xu Ming was back, and what happened to that person just now.

Soon Xu Ming took his bag from Yu Zibai's house, returned home and entered the air-conditioned room, and then said in a voice: "That girl got burned a little bit, her shoe ran off while chasing the dog, and her foot was cut by the gravel on the road. It was broken, and she ran barefoot again, I could only do a simple emergency treatment for her, found her a pair of shoes, and drove her home by bike."

Jian Chu asked in the group: "Is the perpetrator from our side?"

Xu Ming: "Probably not, that girl is from our community. She said that many cats and dogs in the community have been killed recently, so I am a little worried that people in the community saw her walking their dogs and staring at their dogs. That's why I wanted to go home as soon as possible after taking a stroll outside, but I didn't expect that the dog was snatched by two people on the motorcycle during the walk, it should be a crime of running away, probably because of the temporary motive of seeing the dog."

A big golden retriever is obviously a well-raised big golden retriever. With the hair and bones removed, there is still a lot of meat. There is only a little girl walking the dog. Naturally, it is very eye-catching. Seeing this kind of crime is luck that fell from the sky for those who committed the crime. If you don't grab it, you will be sorry for this luck.

In order to be able to eat a bite of meat, who cares what that dog means to that girl, this is the way of the world today.

Looking at the shrimp in his hand, Mu Nan suddenly felt that it was not very tasty: "It can only be said that we don't have pets at home, otherwise it would be too uncomfortable for this kind of thing to happen."

Qin Huai picked up a piece of shrimp meat and handed it to his mouth: "Eat quickly."

This little incident was quickly let go by them. There are too many misfortunes now, if they are all kept in mind, that day will not be over at all, so Mu Nan was a little depressed for a while, and then he was more motivated to give the food to him. Eat up, the more it is at this time, the more you have to eat well, so that you have the strength to face a more difficult tomorrow.

They ate the takeaway that Mu Nan bought before. After eating, they packed up the lunch box and put it in the space. After accumulating it together, they can find an opportunity to throw it out when no one is around. Otherwise, throwing it now is a little afraid of some people. Going through the trash, although it's a little too careful, but it doesn't hurt to be careful.

After they finished eating, it was almost twelve o'clock, and the water should be coming soon, but just as they were thinking about it, they heard the faucet ringing in the kitchen. Although they still supply water for one hour a day, the water is too little. When it is a little better, there will be a small trickle from the faucet. When it is not good, the water will drip out drop by drop. There is not enough water for a basin of water every hour. But even so, Mu Nan and his family still receive water every day when the time arrives, and the faucet is not turned off. Put a basin or a bucket under it, and the water will be automatically connected when it comes.

Because water is scarce now, even though Mu Nan has stockpiled a lot of water, he doesn't dare to waste it in such a big environment, so starting from water restriction, he and Qin Huai basically don't wash clothes, anyway, a pair of shorts is enough for them at home , The clothes that have been worn out are also put directly in the space, and I plan to take them out for washing in winter. As for short-sleeved or vests of similar styles, they directly wholesaled tens of thousands of pieces. They were originally purchased from the factory, and the price of a vest with simple fabrics can be as low as three to five yuan. In winter, I take out the clothes accumulated in summer and wash them in batches. After washing, I can still wear them next summer. Fortunately, the space is constant.

The two have space, but they are still very careful in their small days. I saw some people in their group complaining about the restrictions on online supermarkets and the price is still expensive, but fearing that the situation will be more difficult in the future, they still grabbed a lot of goods, although ID verification is required , there is a limit to what each person can buy, but at least a family of three can buy three copies, so there are still many people in their community carrying things bought from the supermarket in and out every day, so Mu Nan and Qin Huai also Then I bought some, and now that there are more people buying, they will not be so conspicuous.

Online supermarkets have restrictions on the purchase of almost everything, even clothes and slippers that are not food, and other items such as rice, flour, grain, oil, and salt. People robbed them all. This online supermarket has also been in operation for a few days. Everyone has figured out the time. The goods will be updated at 12 noon every day. At that time, grain and oil will be on the shelves, but if they are sold out, they will have to wait until the next day. Online grab.

At this time, the advantage of having young people in the family is reflected. If there are only old people in the family, then there is really no way to compete with young people for this thing.

Mu Nan doesn't rob them of those things, he avoids all the hot ones, anyway, he has them, there is no need to rob other people's opportunities, so he mainly looks online for things that are expensive now, are they worthwhile for others? Unusual snacks, such as biscuits and chocolates, spicy potato chips, brewed oatmeal and milk powder, and even milk tea eight-treasure porridge, these things can also fill the stomach, but they are not a meal after all, and the price is still expensive, so I buy them now Not many people.

The current situation is that although life is difficult, it is still normal. Of course, there are more people who are restless and start to do some illegal activities because of today’s difficulties, but most of them have not yet reached that point, and the price is expensive. , but the money can still be used, and there are many laid-offs, but there are still people who are still working. Many shopping malls are closed, but supermarkets are still operating normally under the control of the government, so many people think that it is the end of the world now. , but the national government is still there, and the order is not too chaotic. I still feel in my heart that as long as I get through this difficult period, it will get better later. Even if the climate in the future is like this, people can always find a way to survive after adapting. Therefore, most people have not yet reached the point where they can grab food when they see it. The main focus of hoarding is rice, flour, grain and oil. on a daily staple food.

After adding a wave of shopping carts, Mu Nan took them to Qin Huai to have a look: "Look at these things, delete the ones that are not suitable for you to buy, and pay for the ones you can buy. I bought them with your mobile phone, and I will buy them later. I'll use my mobile phone to buy it again, and I can only buy it once a week, so we just bought it together and went to get it together."

Qin Huai glanced at it. There were not many items, but the price was high. Even if he only bought the limited quantity, it would cost several thousand yuan. The thirty or forty-one boxes of chocolates used to cost almost two hundred now. No wonder now Not many people buy these, and this kind of food that can't fill you up is too expensive to be worth it.

Qin Huai felt that these things were nothing, since they were displayed in the supermarket, they were for people to buy, so he looked at the others, added some daily necessities, made up a round number of 5,000 yuan, and then placed the order.

When Mu Nan was shopping in the supermarket with his mobile phone, he saw that all the people in the community group were in Aite, so he hurriedly said to Qin Huai: "The water truck is here, and we are going to start water supply from the water truck here too. Are we going down now?"

Qin Huai glanced at it, then got up and put on his clothes: "Go down, everyone else is short of water, although no one may notice, but it's better to go with the flow. It just so happens that there are two large buckets at home, let's take them down together."

Mu Nan was still very active in getting water, and she could leave with a set of clothes, but she couldn't help but sigh: "You have to take a shower at least once when you go down."

But now they save water in the shower, just use that kind of water spoon to shower on the body twice and it's over, and they need to take a big basin to continue, and the shower water is reserved for flushing the toilet. Originally, it was just sweating a little from the heat, and I didn't do any dirty work, so I didn't need to wash it too delicately. However, some Liushen toilet water will be added to the water to cool and remove the smell of sweat, and the toilet will smell fragrant after flushing the toilet. Among other things, the toilet water is quite useful for preventing prickly heat. Because many men are too hot to wear clothes, so Mu Nan felt itchy when he saw patches of prickly heat on many people's backs and necks.

Qin Huai walked ahead with the bucket, and Mu Nan followed behind and sent a message to the small group on their floor. Although he didn't know if they saw the large group, it was just a matter of waving a finger to remind them.

The people next door to them did not see the news of the community group. There are a lot of information in the community group every day. In addition to the notifications of the community, many people like to talk in it, so if the sound is not blocked, the message reminder can be heard all day long. Therefore, such news that requires immediate action may not be received accurately every time.

When Yu Zibai and the others came down, Mu Nan and Qin Huai had already lined up to the front. Although the community notified them immediately, those who lived on the lower floors, or simply gathered people downstairs to chat, also notified their own families immediately People, so when Mu Nan and the others came down, there was already a long queue.

There are also regulations for the water truck to receive water. They can also provide water supply for one hour a day, but the water volume is very low, so another water truck has been arranged. Therefore, it is the same as receiving food, fetching water once every three days. One person can receive ten liters of water at a time. Wait until the water is completely cut off here, and then arrange again.

When fetching water, you also need to register your ID card. You can swipe it on a machine connected to a computer. It is estimated that it is a specially developed software. It avoids someone's opportunistic duplication of water.

The current ID card still needs to be used with the help of some different apps. For example, if you swipe the water, you can only see the information of the water, and you can only see the person who received the material. After the earthquake later, the country began to replace the ID card. After that, you only need to swipe your ID card, all the used information can be seen, and virtual currency can also be entered, and there are no real coins. You can only swipe your ID card to spend money, and you can only swipe your ID card to make money. If you have any bad information, your reputation will be damaged, and it will affect the use of your currency.

Although the government has tried its best to reduce the occurrence of some crimes, many people still take risks in such a difficult time, but it is very good to be able to do that. You must know that in foreign countries at that time, the chaos was so chaotic that man-made disasters were worse than natural disasters. Much more.

Ten liters of water seems to be a lot in a bucket, but it takes three days to get it again after eating, drinking and chewing. , that is to buy water directly from those whose families have a large population or have stored water at home. by cash.

Mu Nan saw it for a while, and the group of people had already traded several times. The big buckets of the old drinking fountains had been filled with several big buckets. They were placed on the tricycle behind them, and they were probably also for the business of pouring water. The people who are distributing water not far away don’t care. Anyway, the water is given to you. Whether you take it back or exchange it for money is your own business. If you run out of water and die of thirst, you deserve it.

Seeing that they traded another one, and the trader took a wad of money and an empty water bucket, and walked away briskly, Mu Nan couldn't help but said: "I don't know if those who sold the water will buy it in a few days. regret."

This kind of pouring of water has not yet formed a climate, it is just some opportunistic things done by scattered people, so the upper level is currently in a state of laissez-faire. Mu Nan knew that the government suddenly mobilized force to liquidate a batch, seized a lot of stored water that was ready to be sold, and expanded part of the national treasury resources.

Qin Huai said: "At least they feel that they have made money now."

Didn’t you make money? The supermarket now costs 25 yuan for a bottle of 500ml mineral water, and there are only two bottles for a liter of water. At 50 yuan, you can double your income, and it’s still free. Water If it's not enough, you can still go to the supermarket, and you will make money no matter what. If you plan carefully, of course you choose to sell it.

The people behind them also sighed: "It is estimated that there is enough water in the house, so I don't care about it. I can exchange money and buy other things. In our community, there may not be many people who are short of water. Before There is a water supply station in the back. The big bucket of water costs 12 yuan a bucket. When the weather starts to get hot, the sales volume soars, and later it rises to 20 yuan a bucket. Because it is nearby, it is also convenient to buy. Sometimes, many people save a lot at home, fearing that one day the heat will cut off the water.”

Mu Nan asked, "Is the water station still open? Is there still water for sale?"

He also knew about the water station, but at that time he was afraid of buying too much and saving it at home, so he didn’t buy too much. He bought two or three barrels every few days, and later it was so hot that he couldn’t go out during the day. After several phone calls, there was no stock there, so I didn't continue to buy.

The man said: "The door was closed early. I heard that the boss regretted his death. He always said that if he had known that it would be hot like it is now, then he should have stockpiled a warehouse of goods. Now a bucket of water sells for more than a thousand. The warehouse is still not profitable."

That kind of big barrel usually costs fifteen to eighteen liters. At the current water price, one thousand barrels is more than enough.

Someone behind sighed: "If I knew it, I would have bought more at that time. Now I can support my family by selling water." The tone of the speech revealed a great regret for missing a windfall.

How can there be so many people in the world who knew it earlier? If they had known it earlier, those who have saved water will probably not sell it no matter how much money they make.
