Everyone gathered at the market. Everyone had the same goal. The first was to buy things and stock up on supplies for their families. No one knew what would happen next. The second was to exchange information and see if they could find something useful.

"The electricity at home went out. At first I thought something was wrong, maybe there was a power outage, but my phone wouldn't turn on and my power bank wouldn't work."

"You're not that bad. I've tried the generator, but it doesn't work. I don't know what's going on, and no one has come out to explain it yet."

"How can I explain this? All the electrical appliances don't work, the TV doesn't work, the phone doesn't work, it's hard to even notify you."

"Isn't there still radio?"

"The radio uses electricity, and even the phone doesn't work, let alone anything else. It seems like all electrical appliances are useless. I can't even turn on the gas stove."

"A gas stove also uses electricity, right?"

"There's a kind of earthen stove that doesn't seem to be used, but I see a lot of people using that."

"Aren't masks made of firewood? They definitely can't use gas."

"No, it's the kind that you can light directly by striking it with a match. It seems that their stove doesn't require batteries to start the fire."

"Hey...you won't believe me when I say this, but we can't even use our lighters. Today, when I went out and wanted to smoke a cigarette, I had to use matches, but it seems like the lighters use electricity."

"The car won't start either. I'm really screwed now. How could this happen? Could it be some alien woman trying to attack me? This is too cruel."

"Isn't it radiation or weapons or something like that? But what are we going to do if there's no electricity? We can't even watch cartoons at home because the kids are crying."

"You're still thinking about this. Cooking, calling people on the phone, and so on won't be so convenient in the future. It's better to let them get used to it sooner. You see there's been no explanation so far, and you still expect this to be resolved. If it's fine for half a day today, then it's fine. If it's like this all day, then don't even think about it. It will probably be the same in the future."

Boss Wang listened to everyone's conversation without saying much. He felt very lucky. The group of people who moved in bought so much firewood yesterday, and he still had some left, so he could keep it for himself. Otherwise, he would have had trouble eating today...

But the generator can’t be used either. This is really scary. I don’t know how it became like this.

"There's a shortage of everything right now. I can't even scan the QR code to buy something in the supermarket. What should I do? I don't have any cash, and the ATMs are out of power. What should I do?"

"Yeah, I hadn't even thought of this until you mentioned it. I can't buy anything without money, and I can't use the money in my phone now... This is really terrible."

Really, at this time someone came over with a large piece of paper, posted it on the bulletin board, and announced the notice to everyone verbally, because it was quite important.

One is that the current situation is being dealt with urgently, and the second is that everyone can get some daily necessities first.

Items are distributed at a per-person interest rate, and of course, all of this is free of charge.

Supermarket items will be requisitioned at this stage, and they will still need to be recounted when you come to the store. It doesn’t mean that they will all be free.

The supermarket staff might initially be tempted to refuse, but then they think, isn't that foolish? If the calls continue, they'll make money. If they stop, they'll mitigate the risk. No one person can guard a supermarket's supplies, and if those people go crazy, nothing will be delivered. This way, both parties have both convenience and safety.

Therefore, there were not too many obstacles in distributing the items. More importantly, it was only the first day for everyone, so the order was very good and people lined up quickly.

The same goes for time travelers, but the items they can receive are more limited, just some matches, candles, and basic vegetables, rice, flour, grain and oil. But it is already very good for everyone, and they now live on the side of the mountain. Everyone has a big pot and a big stove at home, so it won’t be too difficult. It’s just a matter of returning to a slightly more primitive cooking method.

For ordinary country folk, there's nothing particularly special about this. They're quite adept at cooking this kind of food, and life wasn't so convenient back in the day, so a simple wood-burning stove was just a daily necessity for them. So there's nothing to worry about now; all they need to do is get those things fixed quickly.

Many people were secretly delighted that these things had given them a few days of free time. After all, no one really thought the power outage would continue, otherwise it would be too strange, right?

Of course, it is also possible that everyone has been living in peace for too long and does not have much sense of crisis about this.

But... this seemingly peaceful state actually only lasted for at least one day.

After all, the first day was just a power outage, but on the second day everyone lost part of their body while sleeping, so the positive thing was that they gained another part of their ability in exchange.

The little rabbit went out for a stroll with his father and some other adults. Their means of transportation was, of course, bicycles. They also used hidden cameras to record some information, which they could then pass on to special departments and another world. Part of this was to earn funds for their own activities, and part of it was because they needed more frequent communication in exchange for the transportation of supplies. After all, they could do without these supplies, but they absolutely could not give them to those people.
