Chapter 180 Who the hell is roasting red nematodes?
Wu Youai gathered everyone together and announced the news:
"The government plans to recruit tens of thousands of salvage workers, some of whom will be converted to full-time civil servants. Requirements include good water skills and familiarity with Urumqi. Both men and women are welcome. Their daily work involves moving supplies from the flooded city. They'll be paid four virtual coins per day and allocated housing, but those who don't meet performance standards will be fired."
"You can sign up here. I'll screen you in a few days. I advise those who are good at swimming and familiar with the road conditions to sign up first. The government won't help if you accidentally drown or die in an accident."
The news shocked many people. People who were good at swimming were eager to sign up. In everyone's opinion, it was just diving to get supplies, so what danger could there be?
How good are the benefits for regular employees these days? Housing, meals, and virtual currency are all provided. It's like a guaranteed job in this apocalyptic world.
At the same time, Wu Youai announced another piece of good news: "Those who didn't make the cut don't be discouraged. It says that all the buildings in Wucheng are flooded. The water may not recede completely in a short time, but everything in the city needs to be fished out, otherwise it will be damaged by the long-term soaking.
The rest of the people can follow the salvage boats to the city to salvage supplies. The salvaged items can be exchanged for virtual currency at a discount, which is a good opportunity to earn loans."
When it comes to loans, it is a happy trouble that only Banana Community and a few other communities have.
When everyone learned that the floodwaters in the city wouldn't recede anytime soon and that everyone would have to relocate, they anticipated the possibility of losing their homes. No one knew whether they would still be able to live there after the floods receded.
So now I have a house that I own and I don't have to live in a crowded space with other people. In everyone's eyes, I am a real homeowner, a very cool person.
Especially this simple squeeze, which can last for a very long time...home is a luxury for people in the end times.
So when Jingshu's high school classmates found out that her home was actually in the Banana Community, they were extremely envious and jealous.
Because of the flood, millions of people in Wucheng were displaced and tens of thousands were missing in the blink of an eye. The situation was similar across the country, but it was not reported in the news because there was no time to mourn the dead. What was important was how the living could survive.
On January 4, Hongshan Ecological Park provided two meals a day. Because the temperature was too low at night and the cave was damp and humid, people caught colds and had fevers, and hundreds of people died.
Although the heavy rain did not decrease at all, and because of the continuous heavy rain, a thick layer of water accumulated in the cave. The people in the cave could not even sleep at night, and the water on the roadside had already flowed to the calves, but the high-lying areas of Wucheng were not flooded.
The government decided to arrange for people from various districts to move into the new settlement starting on January 5th. The cave was full of water inside and outside, making it impossible for people to live there. Not only was there water, but there was also the sizzling sound of red nematodes entangled with each other and mating. When the lights were turned on, you could see the dense red nematodes jumping and entangled on the water.
Red nematodes are also a major danger and difficulty in initial fishing in the water.
Jingshu remembered it clearly: when she stepped on it, countless bugs would tickle the soles of her feet. Then, within two or three seconds, countless red nematodes would tangle together and entangle her feet. Did she think they were attacking her? No, no.
Red nematodes:
You want to eat me? Sorry, we're mating.
You stepped on me, sorry, we are still mating.
No matter what you do, you can't stop us from reproducing.
So when the salvors go into the water to move things, they will accidentally get entangled by a large group of red nematodes. Those things are like seaweed in the water. I don’t know how many salvors have been killed by red nematodes.
Let’s talk about the cave where Jingshu was. It was much better than the other caves because Jingshu had everyone lay bricks in advance and build a circular groove in the ground with stones. By the time the people in the other caves reacted, the floor tiles, firewood and everything were gone, and they could only stay in the cold water miserably.
Because many people died in other caves last night, the government distributed some coal tonight, which made the entire Cave 5 warm.
Wang Qiqi held
The hot broken clay pot stood up and said loudly:
"Today I am using water instead of wine to thank the family in the villa area. They have really helped us a lot. Jingshu has also saved the lives of many people here. Now we can live in a cave without water accumulation and sleep well at night. This is inseparable from the advice Jingshu gave us.
The cave we live in is bigger than others, and we are given more food every time, all thanks to them.
From tomorrow on, more people will live in our community, including more civil servants, and even the villa area will be occupied by other wealthy people and powerful people.
But no matter what, from now on I will only recognize Jingshu's family. From now on, if her family has any problems, I will be there whenever they call!"
Young Master, I have a baby. Holding Tuanzi, he also said loudly: "My family of three was saved by Jingshu. If anyone wants to take over Jingshu's family in the future, I will definitely contribute my weak strength."
"Count me in." Wang Xuemei stood up in the corner.
"Me too." The fat girl, who was gradually losing weight, raised the broken jar.
The community, which was once a mess, could not help but come together because of the influx of a large number of people. Wang Qiqi successfully gathered people's hearts with the help of Jingshu's tiger flag, and of course won the hearts of Jingshu as well.
"Look at our Jingshu, she is so amazing and loved by so many people." My aunt showed an envious expression.
The whole family gave Jingshu a thumbs up.
Jingshu stood up and expressed her gratitude. No matter what, it is always good to have fewer people around who are looking for trouble.
However, even though Jingshu thought of all the ways to improve her quality of life, she still couldn't sleep well that night.
The flooded cave was paved with floor tiles, wooden boards, moisture-proof mats, sleeping bags, and tents to prevent wind and water but not to prevent the spread of odors.
At four o'clock in the morning, Jingshu was awakened by a familiar stench. Oh, it was everyone in the cave.
The smell was a combination of rotten eggs, roasted durian, and poison gas bombs.
Jingshu gritted her teeth and got up. She hadn't thought about living her life over again, only to find someone roasting red nematodes for her! Who was it?
"What's that smell? Ugh, it smells so bad."
"There's fire in the caves next door, and I'm hungry at night, so I'm roasting red nematodes."
"The smell shouldn't be that strong."
"I heard that they refused to listen after being advised, and then several other caves started roasting as well, saying that they could smell the farts together."
Well, I roasted several caves together, and the taste was amazing.
Jingshu's family had never smelled such a smell before, and they couldn't stand it. They packed up and went straight back to the villa. They had to go back today anyway. "I'll leave the shark submarine to you. Let's drive back first."
Slip away. Slip away.
After leaving Wu Youai and Jinglai in the cave, Jingshu and her family drove back to the villa first. The others had to wait for the government to provide another meal before they could go back.
As we waded through the water on the way back, Jingnai was still a little worried that we would be drowned by so much water.
"Hey, why is the door to the underground garage locked?"
"Then let's go from the top."
