Chapter 273 Discuss
"But those bosses are quite brave. Aren't they afraid that your friend will run away?" Yu Shui asked.
Qin Yiren rolled her eyes at him and said, "Since they dare to buy on credit, it means that they have been cooperating for a long time and trust each other. Besides, Shen Yanming's friend should be quite capable. It may not be that difficult for him to sell several thousand kilograms of grain."
Yu Shui nodded, "You are right. It seems that I am ignorant."
After Qin Yiren finished eating the dried fruit in her hand, she felt a little unsatisfied. She licked her lips and said, "It tastes good. I'll exchange ten kilograms with you. Can you bring it tomorrow?"
"Food is so precious now, I suggest you exchange less. This will save you from regretting it when you're hungry in the future." Shen Yanming kindly reminded.
But Qin Yiren failed to appreciate his good intentions and angrily asked, "Old Shen, what you said is too unpleasant to hear. How could I be hungry?
Although I was afraid of getting tanned at the beginning and didn't do any farm work, I changed my mind later. I worked diligently and willingly with my family. I even ventured to farm in the fields during the time when the virus was raging. I only had some free time in the winter.
Moreover, I had already dug up the precious flowers and plants in the villa garden and planted them with vegetables and fruits. Although they were not saved during the locust plague, there was still some harvest before the plague.
The bedrooms at home have been converted into a vegetable room. Every time we have a harvest, we save half of the dried vegetables as backup food.
Besides, when there was no virus, my whole family would go out to pick wild vegetables and mushrooms on weekends when we were not working.
If someone as hardworking as me can still go hungry, it would be really unfair to God."
Qin Yiren started to feel aggrieved as she spoke. Her words completely shattered the image of a spoiled young lady in everyone's mind.
Everyone thought that Qin Yiren's family was rich, and she must be the type who would sit instead of standing, or lie down instead of sitting. But who would have thought that Qin Yiren actually had such a down-to-earth side.
It was also because of this that she was able to gain a lot of favor unintentionally.
Qin Yiren opened her mouth and wanted to say a few more words, but Bi Qiaoan reminded her in a low voice, "Yiren, stop talking!"
Qin Yiren seemed to have thought of something, her face turned pale in an instant, then she glanced at everyone, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that everyone looked normal.
At the same time, I also secretly warned myself to think before speaking and doing anything in the future, and not to say anything just because of my momentary impulse.
The others didn't think much about it and even praised Qin Yiren, saying what she could do.
But the smile on Qin Yiren's face was about to freeze. She prayed silently in her heart, "Everyone here, please forget everything I said. Don't spread it out. I'm afraid someone with ulterior motives will remember it."
Wei Qin probably guessed what Qin Yiren was thinking, smiled and changed the subject, saying to Shen Yanming: "Xiao Shen, I'll exchange two kilograms of dried fruits for you, just mix them up for me, buy less so that the elderly and children at home can have a taste, they haven't eaten these for two years."
Shen Yanming nodded, "Okay, I'll bring it to Sister Qin tomorrow."
Afterwards, Yu Shui, Cui Xian and a few others also ordered one or two kilograms of food from Chen Yanming, thinking that three or five kilograms of food would not be a big deal, and they could save some by eating one bite a day. If it was more, they would not be willing to give it up.
However, Shen Yanming still reminded everyone, "Go back and discuss it with your family. If you disagree, just tell me and I can cancel it. Let's not have family conflicts."
Shen Yanming's words made everyone laugh. They all thought it was alarmist talk, but after going home to discuss it, they found that it was not the case.
Because many people are worried that there is not enough food at home and are unwilling to take the risk to satisfy their appetite.
Shen Yanming didn't care, he just cancelled the order. He sold dried fruits just to cover up his tracks, otherwise, where would he get the food to eat them.
As for taking advantage for free, he just couldn't do that.
Seeing Shen Yanming chatting with everyone, Bi Qiaoan lowered his head and took out his mobile phone, ready to find the video of today's Qinghe Alliance press conference.
But as soon as she unlocked the phone, she saw a message from Qin Yiren: "Qiao An, thank you for reminding me just now, otherwise I would have caused so much trouble with my mouth."
Bi Qiaoan smiled and replied, "You're welcome. Just be careful next time."
"Well, I still want ten kilograms of dried fruit. Can you give it to me in private?"
"That's no problem, but I still suggest you go home and discuss it with your family. If they agree, we can find an intersection to make the deal."
"Okay, I'll go home and ask, thank you!"
Bi Qiaoan didn't reply. She opened the official Weibo of Qinghe Alliance, saw the pinned video, and plugged in her headphones to play it.
As a result, the earphone on my right ear was taken off by a big hand.
"Have you finished the statistics?" Bi Qiaoan asked in a low voice.
Shen Yanming nodded, "I guess there will be some changes, but don't worry, wait until they decide."
Then he put the earphones in his ears and clicked on the video. He saw Chief Alliance Officer Li speaking seriously, “We are holding a press conference today to announce three pieces of news.
First, there has been a large-scale drop in temperature in Qinghua Country, especially in the northern region. At present, the temperature in some areas has dropped to minus 30 or 40 degrees Celsius, causing great trouble to the lives of local residents.
As the temperature in the northern region dropped suddenly, most cities failed to make cold prevention preparations in advance, resulting in the freezing and cracking of heating pipes and the inability to provide heating.
Therefore, the Qinghe Alliance decided to provide 3V1, 5V1, or 10V1 assistance to northern cities by the central and southern cities, and transfer the people in these areas to the central and southern regions to escape the cold winter.
The specific transfer time and number of people will be negotiated by the connecting cities, and relevant units must fully cooperate.
The Youth and Peace Alliance would like to remind you that this action is not mandatory and residents can decide for themselves whether they need to relocate.
If you move to a city in the central or southern part of the country, all expenses except rent will be borne by the individual, including water, electricity, heating, as well as the consumption of food and vegetables, and the need for clothing and bedding.
Moreover, this relocation is only a measure to cope with extremely cold weather. Residents can return on their own when the weather warms up next year.
Of course, after the people in the northern cities are evacuated, local guards will move into each community to safeguard the city's security while protecting residents' property from infringement.
Second, there was a large-scale power outage in Qinghua Country last week. After investigation, there were two reasons.
On the one hand, because the temperature has dropped across the country and heating has not yet been provided, air conditioners, electric heaters, electric blankets, etc. throughout Qinghua are all turned on, resulting in electricity shortages.
On the other hand, the drop in temperature and snowfall caused some electric wires to be frozen and damaged. The power supply was fully restored only after investigation and repair.
However, the problem of electricity shortage in Qinghua Country has not been solved. In order to save energy and ensure that all residents have electricity in the morning, noon and evening, the Qinghe Alliance has decided to limit the power supply. I hope that all citizens can understand. "
