Survival [End Times]

239, The Sea of ​​Doom 08

In fact, at this point, no one is optimistic that the rain will stop one day. Everyone can accept three months of rainy days, but what about half a year? Nearly a year? People can tolerate it, but plants, animals, buildings, etc. can't!

In the early days, people seemed to be able to do it with ease. Whether it was moving or changing houses, humans had a strong ability to adapt to the environment. They could find opportunities to survive in any way. Even as long as you had wealth, you could still enjoy a standard of living that did not decline at all.

Besides, with the rain, there were also many more fish ingredients. The price of fish dropped significantly. Even if you went swimming in the street, you could catch one or two. Some children rolled around outside during the summer vacation, and they could add food to their family's three meals.

This year's typhoons were also unusually frequent. The weather station's time predictions were always wrong. Although it lost some prestige, it was still reliable in predicting whether a typhoon would come. When hearing the news, residents quickly put away all their things, locked the doors and windows, and watched the children.

After the large-scale migration of residents from coastal cities was finally completed, typhoons were nothing to be afraid of. So later, no matter how fierce the typhoon was, no matter how "once in a few hundred years" it was, the damage to residents was limited. Anyway, no one lived there, so you can come if you want.

If you have the ability, you can go ashore and come inland~

The country is convenient and very powerful, with various support and assistance, and subsidies. The people who left their homes soon settled down and waited for this damn extreme weather to end quickly.

In short, the national situation was stable in the early days, and people were optimistic.

Until this damn rain really didn't stop, and it entered the winter! Most of the coastal areas, which account for 15% of the country's land area, have become oceans, the coastline is still advancing inward, and the number of flooded cities is also steadily increasing. I heard that the glaciers in a certain polar region are melting very fast, and the situation is really not optimistic.

People can still live a life with food and shelter, but they are still afraid! At this rate, the whole country will be flooded in a few years!

Panic gradually accumulated like this. After winter, prices have risen for the nth time this year, and policy regulation is not very effective.

Every day in the news, there are news about houses in certain places being corroded and collapsed by water. There are still many people living in the flooded areas, and there are still many residents on high floors, but they are also moving inland. They have to leave. People are almost gone, and there is no place to buy vegetables.

Now the housing prices in Xiyue are expensive. Almost no one is willing to sell houses. There are more and more people, conflicts are constantly arising, and there are too many robberies and crimes. Yu Heng refused to let Zhang's mother go out alone. They always go out together, and visiting is no exception. One day, Yu Heng received a call from the original owner of the house, saying that he would make up for the market price difference of the house. He laughed to death and blocked him directly.

The vegetables at home were growing more and more smoothly. Yu Heng also went to the hardware market to buy materials, set up shelves, and rearranged the lights, which greatly increased the yield.

Zhang's mother also asked him to buy more than a dozen jars, saying that she wanted to pickle pickles and pickled radishes. The family had no shortage of vegetables to eat, and the remaining vegetable money could be used to buy meat. Meat is very expensive now. Ordinary lean meat is 29 yuan per pound, and good ribs are more than 60 yuan per pound, and there are also 70 or 80 yuan.

The money from selling vegetables was used to subsidize the purchase of meat, and Zhang's mother was also very distressed: "How can we live like this?"

Yu Heng specially opened a passbook for her to see, which contained a deposit of 500,000 yuan, which made her feel relieved. However, she was still very attentive when tending to the vegetables, but she was no longer anxious.

At this time, Yu Heng also received an email. It turned out that the email he had sent to a national construction department about the water city was accepted. After three months, the other party wanted his phone number. After he sent his phone number, he received a call in 20 minutes.

When he answered the call, it turned out to be a staff member of the construction department. He came to inquire about several points in the email. Yu Heng answered them one by one.

Two days later, he received a text message from the bank reminding him that 200,000 yuan had been deposited. Later, he received another call, saying that he was invited to help conduct a field investigation in Hexiang: "The 200,000 yuan is the bonus for your previous suggestions and advice. There will also be labor remuneration for this investigation."

Yu Heng of course agreed. After hanging up the phone, he called Zeng Pingnian and asked him to help look after Zhang's mother. Zeng Pingnian was very happy to learn the reason! Knowing that the Zhang family's vegetables could not be grown without people, he simply said: "I will go there with my wife for a few days, don't worry! Work hard, this is a good opportunity!"

The next morning, a special person from the local department of Xiyue came to pick him up. Yu Heng took the luggage packed by Zhang's mother and got on the car. In the rain, he left Xiyue and went straight to Hexiang.

Hexiang, as we all know, is the test site for the authorities to build a new city. If it is successfully built, it will be the first batch of new cities and attract everyone's attention.

Yu Heng is confident that the bricks he threw out will not be ignored as long as the mail is opened and the person who sees it is in the field of construction. And the knowledge hidden in it is beyond the times, and only he can handle it in a short time.

What is most lacking now is time! When most of the people are still ignorant, as a government, it must have taken action long ago, so he finally waited until today.

After the last mission world, he began to change his mindset: Sometimes the higher you stand, the more things you can do. Although you have more responsibilities, you are also more proactive! For long-term planning, it is also right to devote energy to take responsibility. After all, there are gains and losses.

With the forecast of global floods, the country's strength is immeasurable, and the situation may be worse in the future. He believes that taking this step is necessary.

Yu Heng closed his eyes and went through the plan in his heart over and over again until he arrived in Hexiang in the evening.

The car drove directly into the garage, and the sound of rain pounding in my ears disappeared. "plz follow me."

The group of people took the elevator out of the garage and went straight to the fourth floor. "This is the design department."

The door of the design department opened. Yu Heng stood at the door. He met the eyes of dozens of people who stopped working and turned to look over. He smiled slightly: "Hello everyone, I am Zhang Hengfu."

The job in Hexiang went very smoothly, and the work was very confidential. He signed a series of confidentiality clauses before entering the job, and of course there was a remuneration contract. After I started working, I was restricted from going out, but I was able to communicate with others, but the content of my communications was monitored.

"Country xx has been submerged, and the global floods show no signs of easing. It is foreseeable that the mainstream of urban construction in the future will be water cities." Ms. Liu, the head of the design department, said seriously: "This is our responsibility! Everyone! Keep the national motto in mind.”

Someone asked: "How high should we build it? The water accumulation on the southeast coast has exceeded ten meters. What if it rises further?" You can't build a house so high that it reaches the sky, right?

"That's what other departments should worry about. Let's take a break and come back to the meeting."

Yu Heng adjusted his eyes and closed the folder. Other departments... He has secretly invaded a certain system and knows that the country is also secretly speeding up the construction of super large yachts.

In short, if the water really floods the continent, at least the citizens will be able to live on yachts. Under the storm brought by nature, people are also preparing for survival.

Homeland, the cornerstone of survival...means that countries are highly guarded against each other. This is a war competition. It is a moment when survival can only be ensured by taking deadly technology into one's own hands! Therefore, although countries cooperate, no one dares to really trust anyone, and everything needs to be kept extremely confidential.

When he returned to the dormitory at night, before going to bed, he was still writing and drawing on the table, pretending to start researching when inspiration emerged. It was not until two o'clock in the morning that he closed the notebook and stuffed it under his pillow, turned off the light and went to sleep.

He needs to come up with the idea of ​​building a sky city step by step and with reasonable evidence, and he needs to have the right to speak.

Time flies, and soon the New Year is coming. Yu Heng gets a short three-day holiday, and with two servicemen (who appear to be protecting but actually monitoring), he sets foot on the car to go home for the New Year.

This year's New Year is destined to be deserted. The rain has not stopped, and there is no condition to set off fireworks. It has rained all year long, and everything is wet, making it extremely inconvenient to visit relatives and friends. Come on, let’s just celebrate the New Year by ourselves. It would be great if there are close relatives and friends who can get together.

It was the afternoon of New Year's Eve when he arrived home. Zhang's mother had already received a call from him and prepared a lot of good ingredients at home. The old lady stood in the corridor to pick him up. When he opened the car door and hurriedly held an umbrella, he said, "Let's go home for a walk!"

It was only after I got home that I finally realized, Who are these two people? He looks quite handsome! The old lady's eyes lit up.

"These are my colleagues who accompany me home to take care of me." Yu Heng introduced her: "Xiao Zhao and Xiao Wu."

"Hello!"

"Hello!"

Zhang's mother raised her hand in confusion and saluted, obviously not responding. Yu Heng took her hand and sat down: "Mom, how are you doing recently?"

"Very good, very good. Xiao Zeng and Xiao Zhao just came home in the morning and have been taking care of me! I packed up the vegetables and meat for them to take away, but they still refused, so I forced them to go..." Zhang Muyue said , the more relaxed I became, the two strange young men didn’t take it to heart anymore. Think about how capable your son is. He still has someone to accompany him when he comes home. This is a performance that the boss appreciates!

I feel very happy, not to mention how proud I am.

"They will stay in the guest room, right? I just packed up the room where Xiao Zeng and Xiao Zhao live."

Yu Heng nodded: "Okay."

The two sat and chatted for a while. Mother Zhang stood up with satisfaction: "I'm going to cook!"

Yu Heng accompanied him and said to the two orderlies, "You can do what you want."

"It's Mr. Zhang."

So one stood behind the door and the other stood at the door of the kitchen, standing quite upright. Zhang's mother looked at her in wonder and asked her son, "Aren't they tired from standing like this? How about I move a chair for them?"

"No need mom, that's how they work."

Mother Zhang put down the dishes and wiped her hands: "I'll move it." Yu Heng followed her. Sure enough, the chair was moved. The young man saluted and thanked him seriously, but he refused to sit down.

Zhang's mother whispered to Yu Heng: "What a good child. Is there anyone you want?"

Yu Heng couldn't laugh or cry: "Do you still want to help introduce me?" Zhang's mother said "Hi", thinking that her son knew her thoughts: "Yes, yes." Several candidates were mentioned, all of whom were nearby. Girls, you get to know each other after living there for a long time. No matter how annoying the natural disaster is, we have to get through life, right? It's natural for people to think about getting married when they get older. Zhang's mother chatted with the old sisters she met recently and thought the girl was pretty good, so she kept it in mind.

"Then you go and ask, but you have to ask carefully. Whether it succeeds or not depends on the person's choice." Yu Heng thought it didn't matter. Being a matchmaker is not a bad thing. As long as Zhang's mother is happy.

"Hey!" Mother Zhang responded with a smile.
