Feng Xuanlang said to everyone, "Le Wu may seem cold, but she's actually very kind. If she hadn't been willing to bring water and electricity to the villa complex in the first place, we wouldn't be living such a comfortable life now."
"Even though all sorts of inhumane things happened outside due to torrential rain and extreme cold, it didn't affect us. In fact, it was she who reminded me of the weather changes, so I was able to make preparations early."
"What I want to say after all this is that I am very grateful to her. Because of her, all of us brothers are still together and doing well. Even Xiao Heng's family was brought over by her, and we all take care of them together. Everyone knows that."
"No matter what happens in the future, I hope everyone can protect Lewu. With her around, I feel lucky to have her around."
Everyone else nodded in agreement, and someone began to share their thoughts: "I've always felt that since I met Yuewu, I've been living a particularly fulfilling life, and even my work has become enjoyable."
“I feel the same way. Even though I’ve never spoken to her, it seems like some people’s lives have meaning just by looking at her.”
"What nonsense are you spouting? You've got the meaning of life? Don't talk nonsense, kid. Hahaha, you're treating Yuewu like a fairy. Won't she feel pressured?"
Haha~
"Anyway, I think she's good-looking, cooks well, and now makes delicious juice. She's a really good person."
"You've got guts!"
"Hahaha"
"Alright, let's get down to business," Feng Xuanlang tapped the table twice. "The temperature will definitely rise further, so we still need to take precautions. I'll go get some heatstroke prevention medicine later, and Jiang Ming can distribute it to each household."
"Also, Xiaohu, Tiezi, and Agui, the three of you should check all the air conditioners in every house to see if there are any problems."
"We need to go to the Gansheng Market again to find some refrigeration equipment, like refrigerators. Last time we were too busy with heating equipment."
"Does anyone have any more questions?"
"No!"
Meeting adjourned.
Then Yue Wu received a walkie-talkie call from Feng Xuanlang.
"Lewu, open the gate to Zone 1. I'm going to get some heatstroke medicine. Over."
Le Wu walked to the control panel at the entrance, which had power switches for each fence and gate, as well as the power system switch for the entire villa complex.
Although every household now has solar panels and generators, they still mainly use the main line of music and dance, so music and dance have absolute control.
Le Wu turned off the power to the fence in Zone 1, opened the fence gate, and Feng Xuanlang went to the supply room to get medicine.
Before leaving, they gave some food to Yuewu and reminded her to turn on the power to the fence.
What a worrier!
Not long after, Feng Xuanlang and his group drove off in a truck, making six round trips before returning in the evening.
Some of the items that were brought back were put into Zone 1, while others, such as refrigerators and fans, were distributed to each household to ensure everyone's needs were met.
As time passed, the power department worked tirelessly to restore the power system in City A before the temperature reached 30 degrees Celsius.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Even if the temperature were to rise further, at least they could now turn on fans and air conditioning to cool down.
At the same time, everyone's love for cooking reached its peak, and they never wanted to go back to the time when they ate dry and cold food every day; it was simply unbearable to recall.
As for the many supermarkets, tobacco and liquor stores, pharmacies and other shops that were found to have been vandalized, the authorities have not provided any compensation or responded, which has aroused a lot of online condemnation.
Moreover, in places where vegetables and other food were not provided, most of the food reserves were consumed during the extreme cold.
Many people have to search for food online, but it's not that easy; everyone's situation is pretty much the same.
The authorities have clearly taken notice of the situation, so they immediately dispatched personnel to rural areas that were not affected by the disaster to purchase food.
In rural areas, most households have stored grain, and many people also grow vegetables. So, as long as you pay, you can definitely collect a batch of grain and vegetables to relieve the urgent needs of the city.
Indeed, a lot of grain and vegetables were recovered from different places, but the prices were also very high, three times more expensive than before the disaster.
Even so, many people still lined up at the official designated locations to buy them.
Gradually, the government took charge of purchasing and selling food, which was a good thing, as it prevented malicious price gouging and helped to stabilize public sentiment.
But things can't always go so smoothly. One day, people woke up to find the temperature had suddenly jumped to 48 degrees Celsius. Many people were stunned. Wasn't it only morning?
It was only 36 degrees yesterday, are we having a barbecue today?
It really was like the heavens were going to give us a scorching heatwave. The temperature had already reached 56 degrees Celsius by noon, and that wasn't even the hottest time of the day. Around 2 p.m., the thermometer went straight up to 65 degrees Celsius, a high temperature that hasn't been seen in nearly a century.
The outside was like a scorching furnace; the water on the ground had long since dried up, and even the leaves on the trees were drooping.
Everyone stayed indoors, and even with the air conditioning set below 20 degrees Celsius, it wasn't cool enough. They had to keep pouring in cold water, and the refrigerator was constantly filled with frozen water.
Why frozen water instead of ice? Because we simply couldn't wait; it was just too hot.
Only at night will the temperature drop to the 30s.
The sudden phenomenon of a temperature difference exceeding 30 degrees Celsius in a single day was unexpected by everyone, and people realized that the weather was simply abnormal.
Who said extreme weather would end after extreme cold? Isn't the extreme heat we're experiencing now a testament to that?
Even without moving, I'm covered in sweat, and if I move even slightly, I'm out of breath.
However, due to food and vegetable shortages, the government is rationing purchases, which means that residents have to go out to buy food every few days, otherwise they will go hungry.
The authorities also considered that the daytime temperature was too high, so they changed the food service time to the evening to avoid people suffering from heatstroke while queuing.
Nighttime is dark, and it is the easiest time for evil to breed in unknown places.
