Chapter 689: Guaranteed Harvest during Drought or Flood
"The local security team was unable to arrive in time to rescue, so they could only temporarily relocate the survivors and find another place to live."
It’s better to give up rebuilding on the original site, for fear that it will be buried again after the winter just after it is built.
Wang Lai paused while registering, "Does your friend want to land in Haishi?"
"Well, it's not up to him to decide. He has to listen to the alliance's arrangements. Simon City is too cold and he always has cold legs. There's nothing he can do about the heavy snow in winter. Now that the snow has melted and the road is passable, he called me. I guess he'll have to stay here until summer and go back after the alliance has made arrangements."
"Simon is cold? The temperature has risen here."
"Yeah, it's still minus 7 or 8 degrees over there, much colder than here. I heard from him that in winter, the lowest temperature over there reached minus 50 degrees, which is really freezing to death."
Wang Lai shuddered unconsciously and said with a frightened expression, "It's still better here."
"Of course. At least here we can make ends meet. But it's not the same over there. In winter, everything can freeze to death."
Wang came to help with the registration, and the two chatted for a while before Wu Zhongjian went back.
I contacted my friend when I got home and told him about my doubts. My friend replied, "It's hard to predict in this climate. If they are lucky, just follow them. After all, there are still a few people in this world who are extremely lucky."
Wu Zhongjian was ashamed. The former materialist scholars have now become idealists. He didn't know if philosophical principles could explain the current abnormal phenomena.
On Qingning Mountain, a group of people worked until noon to replant a large area of land.
They wiped the sweat from their foreheads and looked up at the sun. "It's noon now, let's go back."
Shen Yanming originally wanted to invite Chen Shunwei home for dinner, but with so many people traveling together, he decided to give up the idea.
But at the end, Chen Shunwei came over and asked quietly: "Yanming, is there any way to get milk powder?"
Chen Yanming frowned and said, "I can only ask you. The situation is getting worse every year. I don't know if they will release it this year."
"Guards?"
Shen Yanming did not hide it: "Well, the guard team has milk powder, but they don't release it easily. Even if they agree, they have to exchange it for food. In fact, I don't think it's appropriate to exchange it now." He had some guesses in his mind, and was afraid that something serious would happen, so he thought it would be better to store the food.
Chen Shunwei sighed, "I know that, but my wife is not young anymore, and I am worried that she won't have enough milk. If I don't prepare in advance, will I really let the child drink rice soup? I am afraid that I will raise a big-headed baby!"
Shen Yanming wanted to help, but he didn't dare to take on too much responsibility. He could only say, "We have some millet and red dates at home. Let your sister-in-law eat some while she's in confinement. With nutrition, she might feel better."
Chen Shunwei thought of Bi Qiaoan, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "How are your two babies? Do they drink milk powder?"
"Yes, I did the same as you. I changed two boxes early on. My wife's milk supply is still good, and she can feed them for more than half a year. Now they can drink milk and eat complementary food for half a year. When they are one or two years old, they can eat completely."
Chen Shunwei said with some envy: "That's great!"
"It's just the right time. If I were to look for connections now, I might not be able to find one."
"It's okay, just try your best. Even if you can't change it, it's okay."
"Okay, I'll ask for you when I get back, and I'll call you then."
"Well, ask earlier. If your side doesn't work, I can still find other ways."
"Sure, don't worry."
Chen Shunwei breathed a sigh of relief, but Shen Yanming was thinking in his heart that now is really not a good time to get pregnant.
Those who live without knowing or fearing are both lucky and unfortunate. They are happy every day, but when faced with a crisis, they may die without a burial place.
People who know the truth are in pain. As long as the hidden danger is not exposed, they have to live in fear. Their nerves are tense and they dare not relax at all. That kind of mental torture can sometimes make people collapse.
Generally speaking, each has its pros and cons, depending on one's circumstances and choices.
Two people were talking at the end of the line. The people in the front only knew that they were whispering but could not hear clearly what they were saying.
The group went their separate ways only after they reached the bottom of Building 6. Shen Yanming took Ji Kangyong and Zhang Heping home, while Chen Shunwei took the team members back to the dormitory.
In the elevator, Shen Yanming said to the two of them, "Go back and wash up."
Zhang Heping's eyes lit up and he wanted to ask what to eat for lunch, but Ji Kangyong pulled him back and told him not to ask.
Although there was no one on the stairs, there were cameras there, and he didn't want to talk loudly about the delicious food for fear of causing trouble for his buddies.
Zhang Heping was not stupid. After being stopped by someone, he understood. He smiled awkwardly and followed Ji Kangyong down the elevator on the ninth floor.
Shen Yanming sat on the 16th floor. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Bi Qiaoan in pajamas playing games with the two babies.
"Are you back?" Bi Qiaoan looked up, pointed with his fingers and said with a smile, "Here, here, there is black mud."
"After working for a whole morning, it's normal to be a little dirty." But he still subconsciously wiped it with his hands, but his hands were covered with mud, and the sweat made his face even dirtier.
"Go wash it quickly, it can't be wiped clean."
Shen Yanming nodded, "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
"Are they coming up? I soaked some dry food, so I can cook hot pot."
"Come on, hot pot will be fine." Shen Yanming walked into the kitchen and took a look. He thought the dishes were acceptable, so he went back to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.
About half an hour later, Zhang Heping and Ji Kangyong came up and were a little disappointed when they saw the dishes on the table.
Tofu skewers, black fungus, mushrooms, kelp, potato chips, sweet potato chips, and a plate of green leafy vegetables. That's it.
"No meat, Lao Shen?"
"No, just rabbit and chicken. We ate them all yesterday."
"There aren't many green leafy vegetables, just greens and celery. There's no lettuce, broccoli, or chrysanthemum."
Shen Yanming was so angry that he laughed, "It's good to have these, what else do you want? How long has it been since my husband and I came back? Can vegetables still grow in the flower pots at home? If you have any at home, you can bring them over!"
Zhang Heping rubbed his nose and said timidly: "Neither do I at home. I am busy at the hospital every day, and the vegetables at home have not grown yet, but they have dried up and died."
"Then shut up. That's the condition. If you want to eat, eat. If you don't want to eat, get out!" Shen Yanming was not angry. After knowing each other for so many years, he should know the other person's temper.
"Hey, don't leave. Let's eat here today." Zhang Heping sat on the sofa and sighed, "I ate too well last night, so today is a bit disappointing."
Ji Kangyong thought for a moment and said, "How about we kill a chicken and make some hot pot chicken?"
Zhang Heping was the first to agree, "Okay, okay, it feels weird without meat."
