Chapter 139 Small Exchange Meeting
Zhang Lingling was Jingshu's class monitor in high school. Although her academic performance was average, her family was in business so she was very tactful in her speech. She had high organizational skills but a strong desire for control. She liked to command people and enjoyed the process.
I created a WeChat group for classmates in 2018, but I disbanded the group because of a dispute with a classmate. After we went our separate ways, we basically had no contact.
Jingshu's memory was dug up again...but she didn't remember the high school classmates' group in her previous life very clearly. She vaguely remembered that she left the group after some very unpleasant things happened. She didn't have time to pay attention to the noise in the group every day.
After all, at this moment in her previous life, she was worrying about her livelihood.
I no longer dare to eat my favorite pepper worms because of lack of water. Every afternoon when the power comes on, I rush to charge and boil water. I also have to take advantage of the temperature drop and go out to find branches and trunks wrapped in a greasy cotton jacket. I work myself to death in exchange for a bottle of water and bring back dinner for my family. Then I watch the news broadcast at 7 o'clock to check the latest policies and when the darkness will disappear and dawn will come.
At night, I still go to abandoned factories, former shopping malls, etc. to look for useful things. I also go to the stinky ditches to dig carrion worms and raise maggots. When I finish my work, the whole night is over. After returning home, I wrap myself in a quilt and go to bed quickly, because I can't sleep at all during the day. Moving my eyeballs is an action that burns calories.
It was okay in the first few years before the end of the world, as I could still get some electricity every day to charge my phone. But when the end of the world began and the migration started, where would the electricity come from? Even if there was electricity, the signal would be unstable. After all, signal towers and wires also needed maintenance.
Starting next year, the daily power supply time will be reduced again to half an hour, and sometimes mobile phones cannot be fully charged.
The most terrifying thing is being boiled like a frog in warm water. Everything disappears little by little, and when you react, you miraculously find that you have survived.
So Jingshu didn’t have much time to pay attention to her classmates in her previous life.
Wang Chao: "If everyone just comes out and talks, we'll know. I haven't seen many of you in a long time. Oh, and you can also check the step count in the WeChat group. If it's 0 every day, you're basically dead."
Mu Xiaoxuan: "Zhang Lingling, I'm still in your address book. You dragged me in again. Since the end of the world has come, let's forget about the past. When can we get together? Now that you've graduated from high school, where are you all?"
Shi Lei: "Come on, have fun. We have plenty of time to have fun now anyway."
Nima Sang: "Do you need a wedding car? The kind that raises the price midway. Do you need insurance? The kind that buys 60,000 and gets 50,000 back. Do you need a house? The kind that's worth 260,000 for gifts. Do you need me? The kind that can do a 180° spin? Order now and I'll give you an unborn child for free, making your dream of becoming a father come true!"
Nima Sang is the only girl in the class who gets along very well with boys but is disliked by female classmates.
He Shouwu: "What's that to you? My girlfriend can rotate 360 degrees without dead angles, come whenever I call, fast or slow, do it three or four times a day without resistance, don't lose temper, don't ask for bags, let me beat and scold her without daring to say a word."
He Shouwu, whose real name is Polygonum multiflorum, was heard to be a family that grew medicinal herbs. In order to raise tuition for high school, he reluctantly sold a ginseng. After graduation, he found out that his family had ginseng plants ranging from one year old to a hundred years old.
A typical otaku, a Taurus, always drives when he disagrees with something, and he also says: the old driver teaches the new driver step by step.
Nima Sang: "You win."
Sumali: "Who is it? How can you be so nice? [Curious]"
Jingshu squinted her eyes and looked at the ID Maria. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She didn't want to mention this person and shook her head vigorously. She would try to stay away from her as much as possible in this life. This was the only person who could make Jingshu retreat.
He Shouwu: "My right hand [proud]"
Su Mali: “???”
He Shouwu: "You don't understand whether it's true or not? [Shocked]"
Nima Sang: "Oh, our class beauty is really pure."
Seeing that the group was still as noisy as in her previous life, Jingshu was about to close it and go to dry the vegetables, but Zhang Lingling's words really attracted her.
Zhang Lingling said: "This time, I want to integrate everyone into the group, in addition to the meaning of commemoration, I also want to integrate the resources in the group.
Recently, due to severe inflation, the goods of small businesses have completely stagnated.
Although big data indicates that the barter market will open up next year, our small group can start a small one. After all, it is too difficult to get anything now. I remember that many families in the group run small supermarkets or wholesalers, right?
How about this, let's find a time to get together and find out which classmates are still alive, and then if we all have something to trade, we can start a small exchange market, right?"
He Shouwu was the first to speak: "That's exactly what I meant. I still have a small amount of Fengyoujing, floral water, and medicine for summer heat, colds, and fevers. I want to replace the ceramic tiles with insulation bricks, and the building materials needed to build a basement."
Liang Xin: "My own, for changing water or eating."
Shi Lei: "I have tiles at home, but I need to change the water."
Yao Zixin: "My family has plastic ones, which can be customized to change the water."
Wang Chao: "With such a water shortage now, who would still trade water for plastic..."
Yao Zixin: "[almost crying] That's right, everyone else's materials are recycled by the government, but ours is the only one no one cares about. So many materials are going to be wasted."
Jingshu thought about it and decided that she really needed a custom-made plastic one. Not only would the tempered glass cover be exposed to the public the next year without any dirt, but the piles of red nematodes also couldn't be wasted.
Red nematodes can be mixed with egg liquid and vegetable leaves for chickens, ducks, cows and pigs. It is also a delicious food for these livestock. It can save a lot of feed and can also be fed to fish in the pond.
Therefore, it is necessary to make customized plastic. Not only should the villa be covered, but slopes and integrated pipes should also be made in every corner. A super-large rain collection box should be built next to the villa. When the rain and red nematodes flow into the rain collection box through the pipes, you can scoop a spoonful when you need to feed the chickens and ducks. If it is full, don't worry, you can also collect the red nematodes and exchange them for work points. If that doesn't work, there is also Big Eater Number 1.
The advantages of this are that it can conceal the situation of the villa, automatically collect red nematodes, and filter the large red nematodes outside the villa first. If there are any small amounts flowing in, they will be blocked by tempered glass.
Also, when you look up, you see crawling bugs all over the place, which must be uncomfortable. So it is necessary to build something like this on the tempered glass, and the cost is not high.
In the past few days, Grandpa Jing and his father have also built the garage. They will also cover it with something like this when the time comes, otherwise it will be disgusting if the red nematodes crawl into the garage.
Jing Shu: "Yao Zixin, I need p-plastic in exchange for water. Please add me as a friend to discuss the details."
Nima Sang: "I just said that no one wants me, but you took me. Are you attracted to me? When we were in high school, I thought you were interested in Yao Zixin. After all, he was the most handsome guy on campus."
