On the afternoon of the third day after the second storm subsided, another tornado struck. This time it was more severe than the previous two and lasted for a whole day.
The wind was howling outside, and there were constant sounds of things crashing against each other. Xia Shige and his family were gathered in the living room on the first floor to watch and hear what was happening, when suddenly the house went dark.
There is a power outage.
Xia Shige opened the community group and saw that everyone in the group was complaining:
"3-1007 Qiqi, mother of two children: I was giving my child a bath, why is there a power outage?"
"Property Center: @All members, sorry to all the owners, the wind is too strong today, it must have broken a circuit somewhere, we have reported it for repair, please don't worry."
"2-1908 Coconut Tree: It must have been broken by the strong wind. Our community is the worst hit because all the equipment is broken. I heard that many communities in the city center lost power during the first tornado, and they haven't been repaired for a week!"
"4-2009 Sister Ni: Where is the property management? Please fix the electricity quickly!"
"4-1209 I am slacking off: How can I fix it now? Look at the wind. Even if a maintenance technician comes, he will be blown away."
"Property Center: Don't panic, the property management has reported the problem. Someone will come to handle it when the wind stops."
“2-1908 Coconut Tree: @4-2009 Sister Ni, have your windows been repaired?”
"4-2009 Sister Ni: Forget it, I can't get in line. When the second tornado came, it broke my bedroom door, so it's impossible to live here. I'm staying at 4-605 now, thank you for the kind neighbor who took me in. @4-605 is warm."
“4-605 Warmth: @4-2009 Sister Ni, we are all neighbors, you are welcome.”
“…”
Putting down their phones, Xia Shige and his family started the villa's own power generation system.
After the engine started to work, the lights in the villa came on.
Grandma Liu carefully looked at the model label on the generator and said in amazement: "This kind of high-power generator consumes a lot of oil in an hour."
Xia Shige smiled when he heard this.
It's just oil, she has it, both gasoline and diesel!
She took her family to the basement.
The family only saw Xia Shige once when she was stocking up on daily necessities and thought she only bought some food.
At this time, Xia Shige opened the doors of the other two storage rooms.
The whole family was shocked when they saw the neatly arranged outdoor supplies, a pile of photovoltaic panels, several large and small generators, and dozens of barrels of gasoline and diesel.
"Why did you buy so much gasoline?" Xia Huiyin asked in surprise. Gas stations don't sell this.
Xia Shige told her family how she drove her car like an ant moving house to buy gasoline. The whole family was shocked again. After her grandmother came to her senses, she even praised her for being smart.
Xia Shige then showed them nine refrigerator cabinets in another room. These nine refrigerator cabinets were individually connected to a high-efficiency diesel generator and were all running smoothly at this time.
My uncle looked at the diesel generator in amazement and said, "This thing must weigh a hundred kilograms. How did you carry it in here?"
Xia Shige replied perfunctorily, feeling somewhat guilty: "I asked a decorator to help me move a few days ago."
