Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Chapter 111:

Song Jia is just a little fool. Even though his childhood was not very happy, he still has an older brother and someone to rely on. What he thinks about most every day is how to play and how to make money. Other things are simply out of his mind, so for Gan Wei Wei sometimes did some small actions when pouring tea or adding firewood to the brazier, but he didn't understand it at all.

But Jian Chu was different. He grew up by himself, and the first thing he learned was to observe words and expressions. A small mind like Gan Wei can see everything clearly with a glance. Not to mention that he is a crook, even if He is a woman who likes women, so he would not choose Gan Wei, who has hooked eyes and a face that is restless in the room. The choice depends on the face. Sooner or later, the president of the Hulunbeier Prairie will be on top of his head.

When he realized the woman's intentions, he finally found some amusement items to pass the time, so he had no choice but to stop.

Song Jia didn't understand, so he said, "What's the matter? It's okay to play once in a while." The entrance fee, their family doesn't say how rich it is, but it's still a little bit, and if you're lucky, you can win it back directly, otherwise this Staying at home is so boring.

Jian Chu said: "Farewell, if we want to play, we can do it ourselves. Making cards is also a time-consuming thing. Anyway, we have a lot of wood. Don't go to Huang's house, that woman will jump on you, you Are you not afraid?"

Song Jia's face was full of confusion: "Didn't I accidentally trip over it?"

Jian Chu rolled her eyes directly: "You will believe it, stay away from this kind of woman, you won't be able to provoke her."

Jian Chu made up his mind not to play, and Song Jia had no choice but to let him go alone. It's not that he didn't dare, but it wasn't necessary. His addiction to cards is not that big, and if that Gan Wei Girls really have other plans, it is indeed better to stay far away.

So there was nothing to do, Jian Chu planned to make cards by himself, and called Mu Nan to do it together. Anyway, they were idle, and when the mahjong was ready, they could play at home.

Mu Nan was rather curious: "Are you pretty?"

Jian Chu smiled and said: "Naturally beautiful, if you are not beautiful, how can you seduce people? I don't know what is wrong with me. When I was pouring water, I made some physical contact with you quietly. If this is a first love The hairy boy, it's not easy."

Mu Nan laughed loudly: "Does your Yu Zibai know about this?"

Jian Chu said: "Of course I know, you can't hide this kind of thing, a little concealment may cause big trouble, anyway, as I said, as for the card game of Huang's family, I won't go there in the future, stay away from that woman , to be honest, this is the first time I have seen such a girl, this is the legendary green tea-flavored white lotus."

Song Jia on the side suddenly had the feeling that he and Jian Chu were not in the same card game: "You can feel so many problems without saying a word?"

Jian Chu patted Song Jia on the shoulder and said, "Boy, you are still too young."

Mu Nan hugged the pillow and watched Song Jia and Jian Chu polish the wood blocks, and said amusedly, "Do you really want to make your own cards? You are like Northeast aunts knitting sweaters on the kang."

Jian Chu glared at him: "You can describe it, otherwise what are we doing, come to fight the landlord?"

Mu Nan said: "Come on, we also pay with soybeans."

The three of them sat on the kang with a small table, and each of them had a small basket in their hands. The small basket was woven by Qin Huai, using the straw rope bought from the redemption point, and according to what Mu Nan put in the space. For the weaving tutorial, I made a palm-sized basket, just enough to hold small snacks such as melon seeds and beans, and it is suitable for them to use as a fund at the moment.

When they were fighting the landlord, Qin Huai was frying aniseed ingredients by the stove. He soaked a pot of soybeans last night, and today they can be fried crispy beans. After cooling, it will be crispy and crispy. In such a cold weather, it can be eaten for several days without being soggy.

Listening to the sound of stir frying outside, Jian Chu said to Mu Nan and Song Jia: "Do you think this looks like it? The two of us came to play at classmate Mu's house, and his parents prepared delicious food for us."

Song Jia smiled and said: "It's really similar, but my former classmate's parents are, go and play outside, don't make trouble at home, and make snacks, at most I will give you a few dollars, and then treat the classmate to eat a popsicle and finish the job .”

Jian Chu sighed: "Then I won't have this treatment. I have never brought my classmates home, so that home is not a home."

While playing cards, Mu Nan said: "I will bring my classmates home, but it was when I was in elementary school. When I was in junior high school, my brother went to high school and was about to enter university, so he couldn't bring his classmates back to play. They would be noisy. When I was young, I When I bring my classmates home to play, grandma will prepare a lot of snacks, jelly potato chips, chocolate, cut fruit plates, and tie a rabbit out of watermelon peel."

The two spoke enviously: "That's great." They couldn't help but wonder: "Have you ever quarreled with your brother? There must be puberty or something."

Mu Nan thought for a while: "I must have quarreled before. There is no one who doesn't quarrel. My brother is very fierce. He doesn't speak when he loses his temper. Just looking at you like that can make you cry."

Song Jia was also curious: "What do you usually quarrel with?" He didn't seem to have quarreled with his brother, the two had always had discussions, his brother would ask his opinion, and he would ask him first about everything he did. His brother, thinking about it this way, it seems that he has never quarreled.

Mu Nan said: "Why else, isn't it just to eat sweets and have a toothache, drink two extra bottles of drinks and have diarrhea, or else I forgot the time and came back late after playing outside, wow, that black face scares me to death .”

Jian Chu smiled unkindly: "This is not a quarrel, it is your unilateral scolding."

Mu Nan said: "No way, it's just a quarrel. Once I went to play with someone after school. Because I changed the court, the court I had been playing on was taken up. The new court was a bit far away. At that time, I finished school at five o'clock. I usually played I got home at six o'clock, but it turned out that it was half an hour late that day. When I got home, there was no one at home. My brother didn't come back until almost seven o'clock. He had a dark face and wanted to eat people. I didn't know that my brother went out to find me. It's just half an hour late, it's not an exaggeration."

Qin Huai opened the curtain, and put the first pot of crispy soybeans on the table for them: "What happened in half an hour, do you know how many things can happen in half an hour, it's good if you didn't beat you up so that your memory will be long." of."

Mu Nan secretly glanced at him and smiled, and then Qin Huai gave him a supercilious look.

Jian Chu is looking for a new love. Although the Huang family is missing Jian Chu and the two of them, the three poker tables can still be filled. The main reason is that there are a lot of people who come to play, and many who come a little later have no seats. But as for him not going, the people from the Huang family did ask when they were sweeping the snow. Jian Chu only said that the family was strictly controlled and would not let him go out to prowl. As for the girl named Gan Wei, she didn't say a word. , I heard that the two of them are relatives, so they come to help when there are many people. Jian Chu didn't mention it. It was originally a matter of his own observation and analysis, and the other girls didn't show it so obviously. If I said it, say it Maybe they will be beaten up by someone and the toad wants to eat swan meat, so let's stay this far, anyway, if they don't go out, it's impossible for them to come to them directly.

It's true that Gan Wei couldn't come to him, she was shameless, she wanted to find a long-term meal ticket with good conditions, and she didn't really want to see him desperately throwing herself into her arms, if she really wanted to come to her directly, she would say sorry, If she meets someone with better conditions in the future, how can she hook up. When she didn't see Jian Chu and Song Jia for a few days, Gan Wei casually asked, "Why didn't those two good-looking little brothers come?"

Gan Wei is not very old, only in his twenties, as a little girl, it is normal to like handsome boys, the boss of the Huang family laughed and said: "Those two good-looking little brothers are under the control of the family. "

Gan Wei really wanted to inquire more, but people didn't come to play, and it was useless for her to inquire more. After all, it is not like before. It is not like before. Through the Internet, or having a meal out to play, you can get in touch with each other. Closed at home, if one party does not have that willingness, then the relationship will not continue.

Gan Wei waited for several days, but still didn't see them come to play cards again, even if he was unwilling, he had to give up. Seeing that the Huang family's poker game has stabilized, one game every afternoon and one game at night, the family collects a lot of things every day, and their family only needs to pay for some firewood, coal and tea. After living a more nourishing life than anyone else, Gan Wei Changed the goal, the eldest son of the Huang family is also twenty-four years old, he is about the same age, and he is not ugly. The key is that the Huang family can make money, and it is a big family. There are many relatives and friends around. In troubled times, what else? Can be more secure than this.

When Gan Wei changed his target and hooked up, they began to replace the wires in this area. Although this community is considered a new community, many equipments are new, but because of the living environment, the level of high and low temperature resistance of the original installed wires is relatively average. , so the power will be cut off when the temperature is too high or the ground is too high. Later, the cable factory was quickly rebuilt due to environmental reasons. Using the data transmitted from the central side, all repairable parts were repaired according to the changes of existing materials. The machine reluctantly began to re-make the cables. The new batch of cables can better prevent and control high and low temperature. After the test of this latest batch of cables is stable, they are supplied to the base and the greenhouse as soon as possible. All the cables have been replaced over there, and the circuit has returned to normal use. Now, batches of replacements in residential areas have begun, but because there are too few electricians, the process is very slow.

But although it is slow, some people are carrying out engineering transformation despite the wind and snow, so many people are looking forward to it. They don't dislike the speed of the project at all. They just hope that the electricity can be connected sooner.

Before the power is turned on, the network is the first to recover, because the coverage network is used now, and there is no need for network cables to enter the home. It only needs to be maintained and powered on at the base station, and the network can be restored. So when Mu Nan was playing a stand-alone game with his mobile phone, he suddenly found that he was connected to the local area network, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Brother! There is a network!"

Qin Huai turned his head and glanced: "Very good, it should be powered by the base station."

Mu Nan quickly said: "I'll bind the ID card to see what kind of interface it is."

Mu Nan downloaded the identity app according to the download prompts from the previous government official website, entered the ID number, facial recognition and other procedures, and finally logged in the identity. There are many small programs to choose from on the main interface, and there are official announcements. There is an official mall, and you can also see the details of the funds. His assets are only 300 yuan, but at the current market price of a few yuan a day, 300 yuan is considered very rich.

Mu Nan glanced at Qin Huai's mobile phone, the money was in his brother's account, the previous salary plus all kinds of odds and ends and the exchange of prey, his brother's account was short of one hundred to two thousand Yes, the main reason is that although he earned a lot before, he also spent a lot. Anyway, he always felt that the so-called money was not as safe as food, so he spent as much as he could, but he didn't expect that there was so much left.

"Shouldn't all the financial power of the family be entrusted to me?" Qin Huai glanced at him, "I'm afraid you'll use the money to buy sweets secretly."

Mu Nan stared: "If you want to eat, you have to buy meat secretly. What kind of candy are you eating?"

Mu Nan dug out a fully charged power bank from the space: "Do you want to send it to the next door?" With the Internet, it should be enough to charge a mobile phone.

Qin Huai said: "This power bank can only charge the mobile phone four times. There is no sun now, and the solar charging may not be able to work if it is placed outside in the low temperature during the day. Why don't we wait. Didn't we change the line yesterday? , this line has been changed to the house behind us, and the entire second district should be replaced, and it is estimated that the power supply will be available soon."

Mu Nan thinks so, the battery will run out soon after charging, there is no need to bother, it is better to wait for the call, so put the power bank into the space again, and then start to swipe the phone, because the greenhouse is the first to supply power, So some people have already posted on the forum on the Internet, but Daniel doesn’t know if he didn’t find a place to charge it or what. Mu Nan added it according to the number exchanged last time. There has been no response there, but there is no rush, anyway. Here, there is always something to add.

After browsing the forum, Mu Nan went to the official shopping website again. There were already a lot of things on it, including food, drink, and everything. Because the online payment was activated, it was not one or two yuan, and there were even a few cents. Things, but they have to reach a certain amount before they can be delivered, otherwise they can only pick them up at Building No. 1 the next day.

Mu Nan looked at the prices of those items and said, "Why do I feel that this is a bit back to the 1960s and 1970s, when the prices were like this, right?"

Qin Huai smiled and said, "You still know about sixty or seventy years?"

Mu Nan chuckled: "Although there are no elders who recall the past with me, I have read a lot of novels, I have never eaten pork, and I have never seen pigs run away. I also know that in those days, tickets were required for everything. Tickets for meat, even buying a bottle of water.”

Qin Huai looked at the calendar on his mobile phone: "This month, the temperature should still drop, and after another month of coldness, it will be summer again."

Mu Nan nodded, according to his memory, when it gets hot again, he won't have the advantage of being a prophet, and he doesn't know whether his life will get better or worse in the future.

Mu Nan glanced at the snow outside: "Brother, if the temperature rises suddenly, will our house be flooded?"

Qin Huai shook his head: "Probably not, the water will go downhill directly into the river, but I don't know how long this snow-filled river can last without drying out again."

Speaking of the river, Mu Nan licked his mouth: "I want to eat fish, boiled fish, grilled fish."

For such a small matter, Qin Huai naturally followed him: "Then eat grilled fish, you can't eat boiled fish yet, it's too spicy."

Mu Nan lay on Qin Huai's body: "One year has passed, tell me, those who haven't eaten fish or some seafood products for almost two years, will they be very greedy?"

Qin Huai: "I told you not to eat for two years, are you greedy?"

Mu Nan nodded: "If you don't eat something, you may not be greedy. If you don't have it, you must be super greedy. It's November, and it's almost December. The four seasons are completely messed up."

On the day the second district was powered on, another happy thing happened. The little bunny that Mu Nan had been looking forward to was finally born. There were seven babies in one litter. As for the male and female, he didn't dare to approach him. After putting food and water, I didn't even dare to clean up, so I ran out in a hurry, for fear of startling the mother rabbit, who would be stimulated and eat her own cubs.

Because the electricity was connected, the Internet was available, and the communication was restored, so Mu Nan took a photo of the mother rabbit nursing the baby rabbit and sent it to Jian Chu.

Jian Chu was shocked immediately: "!!"

Mu Nan chuckled: "I have a baby, and I won't have to worry about meat when I grow up."

After a while, Jian Chu ran over, went up to the second floor, and looked in through the crack of the door with Mu Nan: "How did you do it?"

Mu Nan knew that Jian Chu was coming, so he put away all the sweet potato vines and green leafy vegetables, and put some weeds cut from the pot and some tomato leaves: "Just keep it like this, give water and vegetables, wild rabbits Good food."

Jian Chu looked at Mu Nan inexplicably, wild rabbits are even more difficult to raise, much harder to raise than domestic rabbits, they are very temperamental, they will go on hunger strike and hit the wall every now and then, but it doesn't mean that you can give them some water and food to fend for themselves. There is also the vegetable shed at the back of their house. Although the fruit inside is small, the peppers and tomatoes have all grown. Looking at the pots he raised on the kang, what a mess, not to mention the fruits, the leaves are all grown. Can't pick up.

With such a comparison, Jian Chu couldn't help sighing: "Perhaps you really have more talent in farming, you can live whatever you feed."

Mu Nan said: "No way, I raised chickens before, but they are all gone. If the chickens were still alive, they would have migrated here with their arms, and now they would have eggs to eat."

After speaking, he remembered the rabbit that Jianchu and the others had taken back before, and asked curiously: "Where's your rabbit, have you eaten it?"

Jian Chu nodded: "There is no food to feed. You can't make rice noodles to feed rabbits, and you don't eat them. Anyway, the more you raise them, the thinner you will be. Finally, you will kill them. If you can't eat them all at once, they will be frozen. I still have them." I haven't finished eating the remaining half, and I want to say that I will burn it and eat it when I am too hungry."

Mu Nan said: "Now that the Internet is connected, you can ask the customer service of the official shopping mall if there is a greenhouse, solar energy can be bought, if there is, buy it quickly, and then grow a little vegetable, and if I can raise another Wo, your vegetables are growing too, so I'll give you two, so you don't have to worry about meat if you can feed yourself."

Speaking of this, Mu Nan suddenly remembered that he hadn't bought the seeds of forage, and quickly took out his mobile phone to ask the customer service of the shopping mall about the seeds, but he didn't know if it was busy there, so he didn't respond, and Mu Nan didn't either. Urgent, if there is no response, I will wait. Now that the shopping channel has just opened, it must be very busy.

"By the way, my brother is going to work again."

Jian Chu looked at Mu Nan: "It's so cold outside now, can I go out?"

Mu Nan nodded: "I heard that all the small offices before have been converted into information buildings, and more people are being recruited. Now we have nearly 200,000 people here. Anyway, we have recruited a lot of interested people, but we still have a lot to offer. The unified examination is required, but my brother does not need it, he has already become a regular, he is the person in charge of the unified examination, because the weather is too cold, after the Ministry of Communications officially operates, he will arrange accommodation."

Jian Chu said: "Accommodation? Qin Huai wants to live outside? What about you?"

Mu Nan waved his hand: "How can it be possible to live outside? My brother doesn't know how to live outside. If he wants to live outside, he must bring me with him. My brother asked before that he can rent a car, which is not the kind of hunting car." , It’s just an ordinary small car, 30 yuan a month, gasoline is bought separately, he just drives it to and from work, the road is leveled every day, but there is no need to worry about it being difficult to walk, as long as the way to and from work does not get cold.”

As for the cost of renting a car, it doesn’t matter. His brother’s salary is not low after he becomes a regular, and he can afford it alone. What’s more, he can still sell vegetables here. There is no need to worry about consumption, the piles of oil in his space have not been consumed much so far, there are plenty of them.

Jian Chu sighed: "I don't know when we will have a job."

Mu Nan said: "Look more at the official website and forums. Many places will recruit workers for factory reconstruction. When you see what you are going to do, will you still move bricks?"

Jian Chu thought about it, and hesitated: "I don't know either, hey, it's too difficult to choose a career, let's see when the time comes, go back and discuss it with Zibo, physical labor can't be done for a long time, and the body may not be able to bear it if you do it for a long time, but Mental ones may not be able to find a suitable one, let's talk about it after this winter, and see what happens after the winter is over."

Now this situation is really confusing for many people. On the surface, as long as you are willing to do things, you can’t starve to death, but what you do are all precarious or unskilled things. To a certain extent, this kind of thing is actually quite Things that make people feel insecure, such as infrastructure construction, eat hard work, but a project will always end, especially like Jian Chu and Yu Zibai. If they have the choice, they may not be willing to eat hard work, or temporarily If you eat it, you will definitely not continue to eat it all the time. How to change careers and where to turn will be confusing.

Regarding other people's confused future, Mu Nan can't give any advice. Although he himself is not at a loss, his not being at a loss is based on Qin Huai's confidence and the existence of space. Still at a loss, so all he can do is to talk to Jian Chu, lest they have too much pressure to choose a career and have nowhere to vent.

The car Qin Huai rented has already parked in the garage. There are not many vehicles at the information building, at least there are not many cars except Qin Huai at present, so a room is specially opened on the first floor for parking. Half of the entire information building is being parked. Reconstruction, the other half has been rebuilt into a small closed building with central air-conditioning heating, so the rooms on the first floor are also heated, so that the car will not be able to drive there, but it will be frozen there and cannot be driven back.

On the first day back to work, even though he knew that food might be provided there, Mu Nan still didn't count on the small cafeteria. He specially prepared rice for Qin Huai. The rice was fried rice with crushed pickled peppers and minced beef. The color of the meat after frying into foam is quite similar. There is a large bowl full of fried rice, another small box contains tiger skin peppers, and a tomato soup. The tomato soup is egg drop soup. Mu Nan cracked eggs into it, but now the There were no eggs for sale at all, so he fished out all the egg flowers carefully. Anyway, the soup of boiled eggs can bring some nutrition and taste. This is currently the best thing he can get Qin Huai to eat outside. Other good things can only be eaten secretly at home.

Seeing Qin Huai who was about to go out again in the morning, Mu Nan tugged at his clothes with some reluctance: "When you arrive, send me a message, be careful when driving on the road, even if you have snow tires, the snow has been shoveled, but It's also very slippery."

Qin Huai looked at Mu Nan who was reluctant to let go, Mu Nan pulled him into his arms and kissed him on the lips: "Be good at home, wait for me when I come back."
