294 Just Call Me, My Ears Are Good
Wan Dapeng thought so too. “Yes, windows are useless now. Electricity is still more important. I don’t know if Mr. Wu sells wires…”
“No need to buy them,” He Xing interjected. “We’ve brought wires.”
“That’s great!” Wan Dapeng slapped his thigh. “We can just connect an electric wire from the second floor. There’s just one square pipe left. I’ll weld it vertically on the roof, and the electric wire can come down from there. It has to be made higher, or else the wire will be easily cut when the car passes by.”
Wan Dapeng had considered all aspects for the two of them, so Du Yue and He Xing had a lot of free time. Du Yue went to the car and took out the wires. As for why they would carry such a large roll of wires with them, no one would find it strange. Not to mention the wires, when Wan Dapeng and the others were preparing to move, they even brought used plastic bags. They also thought that they might come in handy in the future! It was always better to be prepared! Wan Dapeng’s hands and feet were very agile, and it only took him 20 minutes. He helped Du Yue and He Xing turn on the electricity in the mobile house and hung up energy-saving lamps on the ceiling. Although the energy-saving lamps were not as bright as flashlights, they were very energy-saving.
With the light above their heads, their vision would not be blocked even if they stayed in the room. The entire bedroom was white, and it looked pretty good. “You’ve just settled down, so you can slowly add in whatever we lack. Fortunately, the temperature is quite comfortable now, so you can directly make a bed on the ground.”
After Wan Dapeng said this, he suddenly thought of something. “But I don’t know if it’ll be cold this winter.”
Hearing Wan Dapeng suddenly mention this, Du Yue was also stunned. For the past two months, they had been on the road and on the run. They did not have a stable place to stay, so Du Yue had not bothered to look at the calendar.
The earthquake occurred in June this year, and it had been three months since the earthquake. September was almost over. During the three years of the fog in her previous life, although the outdoors were always covered in fog and the sun could not be seen, they could still tell the changes in the four seasons from the temperature.
However, too many things had changed. Du Yue was no longer sure if this life would be the same as before. A few months ago, summer did not feel like summer, and the temperature was always around 20 degrees. It was clear that the trajectory in her previous life was very different from this life.
Du Yue was more than willing to have the temperature remain like this. The thick fog had brought a lot of trouble to people’s lives, and their days were already very difficult. If the temperature between summer and winter became extreme, they would really be unable to live.
While Du Yue was pondering, Wan Dapeng had already thought it through. “No matter what the temperature will be like this winter, we should go to the base and see if we can buy a bed. If we really can’t buy it, then we can buy some wooden planks. There are many people in our base who know carpentry, so it shouldn’t be a problem to build a simple bed!”
Du Yue and the others had known Wan Dapeng for some time and knew his personality. He would say whatever came to his mind. Since he said that it would not be a problem to build a bed, he would definitely be able to do it. Du Yue was convinced of this. “Alright, everyone has worked hard today. Go back and have a good sleep. If we’re free tomorrow, let’s go out and have a look.”
He Xing nodded with a smile.
Wan Dapeng led the others to stand up. “We spent half a month on the road and a whole day working. You guys take a rest. We’re gonna leave first. If there’s anything wrong, just call me! My ears are good!”
He Xing could not help laughing. “Then I think we’ll lose our voices in less than a month. Hold on, let me give you something,” He Xing said. After that, he walked toward his car, took out two walkie-talkies, and handed one of them to Wan Dapeng.
Although it was the end of the world, it was not really a primitive society. They did not know if there was any network communication in the third base, but the walkie-talkies were still working. Wan Dapeng took the walkie-talkie and turned it over and over in his hand. He simply could not put it down. “That’s great, it’ll be convenient in the future. We wanted to buy some before, but they were too expensive in the second base and we couldn’t afford it. I can finally use one now. You guys should get some rest. We’re leaving. Call me through the walkie-talkie if you need anything!”
