Chapter 54: It was money that was used to smash it



These are worthy of being the three best snacks that dominate the snack street, and they all taste very good.

Yu Xifeng spent several days making six boxes of the three kinds of food. Each box could hold sixty take-out boxes, which means one hundred and twenty in total.

During these days, all the eggs stored in the space were consumed, and a lot of them were even pasted in.

Yu Xifeng was thinking about getting another batch of chicks.

The three ducklings that were hatched earlier grew up very quickly with their mother hen, and now their bodies are covered with duck feathers.

Yu Xifeng was not quite sure about the specific breed of this duck, but the row of blue feathers on its wings were extremely beautiful.

Yu Xifeng followed the instructions of the incubator and often turned the goose egg over. The egg was a lot bigger and could hardly be held in one hand, but there was no movement.

Yu Xifeng gradually lost hope and put the matter aside.

In between cooking noodles, steaming rice and steaming cakes, Yu Xifeng cooked several large pots of hot milk tea and brought a cup to Sister Yun.

Sister Yun told her that someone had jumped from a building in the community.

The man jumped from the 13th floor. When he was found, his blood had frozen into ice on the ground.

When the neighbors went to his house, they found that it was empty.

The tables and chairs were burned for heating, and everything that could be burned in the house was burned, leaving only a few electrical appliances that had been out of power for a long time.

The house was deserted.

Nowadays, many people walk far away during the day just to pick up something that can be burned.

All the trees in the vicinity were cut down, and all the burnable paper in the library was cleared out.

Even the billboards were not spared.

When the plastic burns, it produces a choking black ash, which I heard is also poisonous.

Two other families in the community died from carbon dioxide poisoning.

Daily reminders on community radio.

But it was too cold and no one wanted to ventilate. They hoped for the best, and several tragic cases of families being murdered happened, which scared off those troublemakers.

Sister Yun took advantage of the higher temperature at noon and ran out to ask someone about the shelter.

She already had some connections, but she was not careful and no one would specifically pass the information to her.

She went to ask people according to the information given by Yu Xifeng, and also went to see the underground shelter herself.

The more I inquired, the more frightened I became.

The actual price of the underground shelter house is not high, but there is no demand for it.

She gritted her teeth and gave away a small portion of the family's stored food, but the other party was still vague and unwilling to agree.

The reason they were unwilling to do so was because what Sister Yun offered was far lower than the actual price of the house.

She didn't have the connections and resources to get into the inner reaches of the underground shelter.

The people there said that if she had come a month earlier, she might have been able to book a house.

Now, it cannot be said that there are no vacancies, but there are too many people eyeing them, and there is no room for maneuver at all.

There were no vacancies for that single room, and even if there were, she couldn't afford it even if she sold everything she had.

It's not something she could ever dream of.

Sister Yun gave up the idea of ​​squeezing into the inner circle and began to work to secure a good position for herself in the outer circle.

It’s best to be with friends in a crowded place, and when things get chaotic, you’ll have someone to look after you.

Without any hesitation, she asked her friend to help her register and get a number in the underground shelter. Once there was any movement in the outer circle, she would be arranged to go in.

The attitude revealed by the underground shelter is disturbing.

The natural disaster situation is more serious than I imagined.

Xu Yun wanted to get more bargaining chips for himself.

She bought a batch of fuel from the market at a high price. If the temperature continues to drop, the price of fuel will only continue to rise.

For this batch of fuel, Sister Yun almost used up all the resources she could mobilize.

Before buying it, she went to find Yu Xifeng, who also asked for a batch and paid more than 2,000 grams of gold for it.

Yu Xifeng remained calm despite the gold, and Sister Yun now knew how she got the single room in the inner circle.

It turns out that it was done with money.

The rich are always envied.

The three families were used to acting together, so Sister Yun also went to ask Hu Qiangyong.

Mother Hu fell ill after the temperature dropped sharply.

When the medicine was being soaked, Zhao Yao felt so distressed. Now a bag of medicine outside is no cheaper than gold.

But fuel is a good thing, and many people can't even spend the money they have, let alone buy fuel.

Hu Qiangyong's family doesn't have much extra money.

If I hadn’t followed Sister Yun and Yu Xifeng to buy that batch of rice, I’m afraid we would have run out of food at home by now.

The quantity Hu Qiangyong asked for was very small, and what he took out was not even a fraction of what Yu Xifeng asked for.

Hu Qiangyong was involved in this kind of deal because of their previous relationship.

But Zhao Yao didn't understand this.

Maybe it’s not that I don’t understand, but that I don’t want to understand.

Before the big drop in temperature, Zhao Yao disagreed with Hu Qiangyong taking out most of the family's money to buy rice, and it was Hu's mother who pushed for it.

Zhao Yao was originally waiting to see his mother-in-law make a fool of herself.

Her mother-in-law held on to the money and refused to let go, which made her feel very resentful.

Nowadays, the price of rice is still rising, but there is less and less rice on the market.

Zhao Yao felt relieved, but also had an indescribable feeling.

The weather was cold and she had nothing to do at home. Whenever she had free time, she would move a chair and sit at the door, listening to what was going on next door.

Yu Xifeng came to see Xu Yun.

Xu Yun would go to find Yu Xifeng whenever he had nothing to do.

In Xu Yun's hands were either dried vegetables or fresh mushrooms. She even saw a battery in Yu Xifeng's hand.

Who has electricity now? Zhao Yao heard from Hu Qiangyong that the electricity generated and supplied can be sold at sky-high prices.

Zhao Yao coveted Yu Xifeng's battery.

She also went to find Yu Xifeng with a handful of dried vegetables.

But Yu Xifeng gave the battery to Sister Yun for free and was unwilling to give it to her.
