No one expected this heavy snowfall, but Sanlihe Village was reminded by Wen Zheng. Under the leadership of the village chief's family and Huang Sanshu's family, although the people in the village were dubious, they still prepared some extra things, which they will use this time. arrive.

Although Wen Zheng did not remind other villages, rural areas are all the same. They will be short of everything, even food.

After harvesting, every household in the village will not sell all the grain, but keep some at home for their own consumption.

There are vegetables grown in the ground, and we bought a lot of meat during the Chinese New Year.

This time, Wen Zheng saw the shopping list made by the villagers of Sanlihe Village. No one listed food and vegetables, which meant that there was no shortage of food.

But the situation is different in the town. The residents in the town buy small bags of rice noodles and keep them at home. If they don’t go out, they will buy them soon.

As a result, the heavy snowfall and unbearable low temperatures made it more difficult for them to go out to buy things.

There is also the issue of low temperature.

Although in rural areas, not only coal but also a lot of firewood are stored. Even if they run out, it will be fine. Neighbors who have more in reserve can borrow them.

Most of the residents in the town use air conditioners or electric fans for heating. Not to mention Wang Chai, there is very little coal at home.

Some people are even used to using air conditioners in their homes and don’t even have a few sets of thick quilts at home. A sudden power outage would be devastating.

I have a cold or a fever. I have finished drinking the medicine I prepared at home, and I have to go out to buy medicine.

Kaoshan Town is not a big town, and there are not many police officers in the police station. At the beginning, they could still drive around and patrol.

Later, the snow on the ground became thicker and thicker, and there were problems with the electricity and even communication.

Taking into account the difficult situation of these residents, under the arrangement of the town leaders, people will be allowed to come out to resume normal trade when the snow stops during the day.

It was a relatively peaceful period and there were no problems. At most, some conflicts would arise when some people were fighting over each other when buying things.

It's just that things are selling less and less, so some people take the opportunity to raise prices. It's difficult to walk on the road, and the snow stops are short. Some people would rather spend more money than have time to argue with the boss.

However, some people are unwilling to buy at high prices, or they may have no money at all, or they may have a grudge in the past.

As a result, a small supermarket that secretly raised prices was smashed up at night. The owner and his family who lived in the supermarket died in the store. They were only found during the day the next day. The door was open, and the bodies of the owner and his family were almost frozen. ice sculpture.

The police also waited for the snow to stop before rushing over. However, the power outage meant that there were no cameras working, and the blizzard meant that after a few hours, the footprints left behind would be covered with snow, leaving no trace.

The crime occurred at night, there was no light and no one could be seen. It was discovered during the day and no one could be found at all.

This incident spread throughout the town with people buying things, and the town became chaotic. No more murders occurred, but there were people who broke down doors and grabbed things at night.

The police tried their best to endure the cold night and patrolled everywhere. They finally caught one of them, but he didn't even run away because they only caught him smashing the door and grabbing things, but didn't attack anyone.

This man was originally a gangster in the town with no income. He had no money to buy things and his crimes were not serious enough. When he was arrested by the police, the police could not watch him starve to death or freeze to death.

I don’t know what the first person to do to kill was thinking about, but the people who followed him were caught, and their motives were the same as this little gangster. Even if there were police patrols, they would still cause trouble. Some people who made trouble in broad daylight would even be stoned. Door, just want to enter the police station.

"Later, because of day and night patrols, a police car had an accident. There was no big hospital in the town, only a few clinics. The two policemen in the car found a way to send him to a big hospital after the snow stopped. I don't know what's going on now.

"The middle-aged man shook his head, "If it hadn't stopped snowing two days after the car accident, it's hard to say what the town would be like now.

"My Yanzi opens a canteen in the town. No, no, I have to go and have a look."

"Yanzi's father quickly turned around to get in the car.

Huang Mingchang quickly stopped him and asked Yanzi's father to get into the passenger seat, and then found another villager who could drive to accompany him.

The rest of the people who stayed looked at each other.

"What should we do now?" someone asked, with a confused tone.

Among the remaining villagers, although there are no particularly close relatives in the town, there are always people they know, so they can't help but worry when they hear this.

"Now that the police are under control, let's buy all these things first, and then think about who in our village lives in the town. After buying, let's check the time before discussing.

"Huang Mingchang said.

The middle-aged man had already finished shopping and was waiting for his companions to come back. Since he had nothing to do, he looked at them and spoke again: "But this kind of thing is not only happening in the town. Many villages have the scourge of stealing and robbing. You guys Which village are you from? They are quite united.

"Thank you big brother for telling us this."

"Huang Mingchang avoided the question and thanked him.

The middle-aged man took a deep breath on his cigarette: "It's not a rare news, it has been changed in the past two days.

It’s not easy for everyone. The elderly and children in our village are sick a lot, and many of them can’t survive the snow.

"Some of the villagers wanted to speak, but Huang Mingchang was the first to say: "There are a lot of sick people in our village. There is only a small clinic in the village. In addition to buying medicine this time, we also want to buy some funeral things.

"Be careful when you go back. You will be uneasy on the way back these days."

"The middle-aged man reminded again.

"Thanks for the reminder, brother.

"Huang Mingchang was surprised and quickly thanked him, "Brother, let's go over and line up first, and try to leave as early as possible in the evening.

"Huang Mingchang turned around and winked at the villagers, preventing them from having a chance to express their questions and urging them to queue up to buy things.

After being far away from the middle-aged man, Huang Mingchang first said to Wen Zheng: "Wen Zheng, it's really thanks to you this time.

" As soon as this thank you came out, some villagers reacted a little, and then Huang Mingchang said a little embarrassedly: "Then what... are you still accepting students? I also want to learn.

"Wen Zheng smiled. Huang Mingchang was thinking very quickly. He didn't need to refuse this matter. It was just a matter of teaching a few more people. He nodded: "Okay, let's wait until the snow melts." The rest of the villagers They looked at Huang Mingchang and Wen Zheng, but there were people around them. They couldn't just express their intuition and could only think about it in their hearts.

Huang Mingchang divided the villagers into groups to buy supplies, and reminded them to put their money away. Even if the police were watching around them, if they really encountered a bold thief, they would not be able to report to the village if they lost their money.

Wen Zheng and Huang Yi'an were responsible for buying toilet paper. This kind of thing would not die if it was missing, but the quality of life would be reduced.

After finally getting to the front of the queue and looking at the marked price, Huang Yian took a deep breath and said, "It's a money grab.

The old man selling toilet paper didn't even raise his eyes and said directly: "If you don't want to buy it, just leave. Don't stand in the way of others buying it."

"The price of this thing is twice as high as before. Huang Yian originally wanted to negotiate the price, but the old man blocked him and turned red in the face.

"Young people are ignorant, don't argue with them, just give me two boxes at this price.

"Wen Zheng said calmly, it is normal for the prices of things to increase after the snow disaster.

The old man glanced at Wen Zheng, looked at it twice, took out two boxes from behind, and said: "Everyone knows that the world has changed, and it is time for young people to grow up.

"After Huang Yian handed over the money, he followed Wen Zheng holding a candle, feeling a little lower than usual.
