Many people use plant growth promoters because they want their crops to be harvested quickly in cold weather.
However, excessive use of plant growth promoters caused the crops to wilt. Seeing that the crops were about to die, everyone panicked.
"Miss Qin, please help us."
Upon seeing Qin Su approach, those people almost knelt down and begged, for these crops were their lifeblood.
"Don't rush, let me go take a look first."
He quickly walked over to the problematic crop, squatted down, and saw that one side of the crop was shriveled and the root absorption was closed. If it was not treated in time, it would really wither.
"Immediately irrigate the area!"
But this is in extreme cold; if that water is poured in, it will probably freeze into ice blocks.
Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Qin Su took out the medicinal powder from her backpack.
"Add this packet of defrosting powder to the water."
Without further hesitation, everyone quickly drew water to irrigate the plants.
As night fell, the weather grew colder, and even with insulation measures in place, the greenhouse remained bitterly cold.
Qin Su rubbed her neck, feeling a cold wind blowing in from it.
The temperature is probably below zero.
The temperature inside the greenhouse is below zero, and outside it's definitely below minus forty degrees Celsius.
Huo Sijin took off his military overcoat and draped it over her shoulders, then took out a small object from his pocket, which felt warm to the touch.
Before Qin Su could even ask, he had already turned around and gone to help everyone water the plants.
Qin Su discovered that this little thing was very warm. Although it was only the size of a hand warmer, the temperature it released was warmer and lasted much longer than that of a hand warmer.
With this little thing, her frail body no longer felt cold.
Looking at Huo Sijin, he was only wearing a sweater. He didn't seem to feel cold, unlike the others who were shivering from the cold.
She couldn't help but secretly wonder if he had hidden something else for warmth.
After a busy night, the crops that were almost withered have finally come back to life.
"He's alive! He's finally alive!"
Those who were farming wept with joy.
"Miss Qin, thank you so much. You are our great benefactor."
Qin Su shook her head; she was exhausted after holding on all night.
"You're welcome. But going forward, we need to proceed gradually with these crops and not rush things."
After this ordeal, who would dare to continue acting recklessly?
"Don't worry, Miss Qin, we won't do it again."
They watched Qin Su leave, then looked back at the crops in the field, and a huge weight was lifted from their hearts.
"Miss Qin, I have prepared a room. Why don't you go and rest first?"
Secretary Li quickly said, "Miss Qin is not in good health, but she stayed up all night to help everyone."
"good."
Qin Su did not refuse, but after she had rested, she would definitely go to see the mayor. If he was almost fully recovered, she would let him take care of things himself.
Managing things is so tiring!
She fell asleep almost as soon as she got into bed.
I slept until the afternoon.
She felt the indoor temperature had dropped a bit, which indicated a significant drop in temperature outside; otherwise, the perceived temperature wouldn't be so noticeable in a heated room.
Sure enough, it was already minus sixty degrees Celsius outside.
Previously, some people went out to look for supplies, but now no one dares to go out at all.
It's so cold outside, I might freeze into an icicle and never come back.
Thump thump thump...
"My little apprentice, are you awake?"
Huo Sijin knocked on the door, and Qin Su got out of bed to open it.
Huo Sijin, wearing the military overcoat she had returned to him, stood tall and straight, seemingly oblivious to the cold.
Aren't you cold?
Qin Su shuddered when she saw his attire.
Temperature-regulating clothing, thermal underwear, down jackets...
She bundled herself up tightly, but the thought of the outside temperature still made her hesitant to go out.
What a tragedy! She only wanted to coast through the apocalypse, how did she end up becoming someone else's savior?
"Here, take this."
Huo Sijin handed over the little thing from yesterday again.
"This is a hand warmer that I developed myself. It can keep warm for eight hours. You can use it."
Qin Su quickly took it; she had already experienced its effects yesterday.
"How are you so amazing? You can even develop such cutting-edge technology."
Qin Su praised her generously, for heaven knows how important heating equipment is to someone like her with poor health.
"Um."
Huo Sijin raised an eyebrow, her voice tinged with a hint of arrogance.
"These are all very simple things; they were easily figured out."
Qin Su: ……
You're really getting cocky when I say you're fat.
But this thing is so useful, I wonder if it will keep the heat in the same way when I go outside?
As she spoke, she walked outside, and as soon as she opened the door, she felt the biting cold wind.
I adjusted the temperature of the heater in my hand in time, and soon the warmth spread from my hand, making my whole body feel warm and cozy, without the feeling of walking in extreme cold.
This is so useful!
"It consumes more power when it's outside, and it can only last for about six hours."
Huo Sijin explained, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes. He could have done better if he had had more time.
"Six hours is enough."
She had been hesitant about going to her godfather's place, but the weather was too cold, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to handle it. Now that she had this hand warmer, what was she afraid of?
"Let's go see the mayor first. If he's alright, then we'll head over to see our godfather."
After a day and a night of rest, the mayor has recovered.
He felt that the pill Qin Su gave him yesterday was definitely a miracle drug.
After taking that pill, his pain lessened, his illness improved, his body felt lighter, and even his appetite improved.
"Miss Qin, I'm feeling much better now, thank you so much."
Seeing his expression, it seemed that continuing to work was no longer a big problem, so Qin Su took her leave.
"Miss Qin, it's cold outside. Won't you catch a cold if you go back now?"
"How about I have them prepare some things before we leave?"
"No need, we have our own preparations."
What could be better than a hand warmer? With one of these in hand, you won't have to worry about extreme cold.
"Oh, right, I'm afraid I won't be coming out anytime soon. Here, take this. I hope Wancheng will remain peaceful."
The mayor took the bottle from Qin Su. He knew that these were pills made by Miss Qin herself, and they were very effective.
"Thank you, Miss Qin. Don't worry, I will do my best."
Qin Su naturally believed the mayor's assurance, after all, he was someone who had worked himself to the bone for Wancheng.
With Secretary Li bidding him a tearful farewell, he finally left the municipal government.
On the road from the municipal government to Fang Ao Camp, those who had been sent to labor camps were resignedly shoveling snow.
There are fewer people than before.
On the ground, some were too frozen to get up.
Qin Su remained indifferent; these people had brought it on themselves.
If it weren't for her yesterday, these people would have killed the mayor, seized supplies, and ended up ruling over their own territories, enslaving others to satisfy their own desires.
