Chapter 504 The Beginning of the Fourth Year of the Apocalypse
"Ah?" Jingshu was a little stunned for a moment. She looked around and found that Jingnai was indeed only talking to her.
Jingshu grabbed the sour plum soup with some embarrassment, took a sip, then pursed her lips and looked around. Jing's father was the director of the livestock farm and was very busy at the time. Jing's mother had been busy all day since she was promoted to department head. Wu Youai and her mentor had been studying the formula of synthetic meat in Shiyuan every day recently. Not to mention the third aunt, she had even less time. Now she was the only idle person at home.
"Grandma, why do you want to go back to Wu County for the New Year? It's nice to celebrate the New Year in Wucheng. Didn't we agree to bring everyone here to celebrate the New Year?" Jingshu frowned slightly. At this juncture, she was afraid that she could not go back to Wu County for the New Year. There were more disasters to come. It was about to enter the fourth year of the apocalypse.
Although she was well prepared, it was only limited to the villa. If she ran around, she would not be able to guarantee everyone's safety. No matter whether she drove there or drove back, when the mudslide came, even the most powerful RV would be trapped.
While spreading the feed, Jingnai checked the cub like a treasure to see if there was anything wrong, and said, "It's nothing, I just haven't been home for a long time and I miss it a little. Also, let's spend the New Year in Wucheng..." Jingnai was a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?" Jingshu asked.
Grandma Jing carefully glanced around before saying, "The weather is getting colder, and food is becoming increasingly scarce. Your eldest aunt's family is afraid of causing trouble for us. If everyone comes to eat and drink, how much food will be wasted, so they don't want to come. Your second uncle's family is afraid of not being able to take advantage, so they want to eat and drink for free and waste food. If someone gets the word out, we'll be targeted."
Yes, seeing that food is becoming increasingly scarce, even the pockets of the government are becoming empty, and the people are feeling a sense of crisis. Even those who used to show off their chickens and ducks have become low-key.
Jingshu smiled and said, "Grandma, your worries are justified. I understand. Let's make some rules with them in advance. I will also make full preparations to ensure that the things you worry about will not happen. Just sit back and wait for a good New Year!"
There will be no New Year's celebration next year. Jingshu couldn't help but squint her eyes and recall the scene of shivering and looking for food during the migration next year. This year is the last year for everyone to catch their breath. Next they will face the real challenge of the end of the world, and there is really not much time left for Jingshu.
"Oh! It's almost twelve o'clock. I have to cook quickly. I'm so busy every day." Jing Nai washed her hands, wiped them on her legs, and hurried into the kitchen. Jing Ye nagging on the side: "After washing your hands, can you wipe them with a towel? Look at that mess, it's all greasy and shiny because of you..."
...
"Oh." Jing Shu also sighed quietly and fell into deep thought again. One of the reasons for her trouble was that she had no money! Not only did she have no money, she also owed Zheng Fu millions...
Who could have imagined that a tycoon who ran a factory employing thousands, managed a garbage dump, and had various side businesses could be broke and deeply in debt? Jingshu never dreamed that after everything was back on track, she would actually owe even more debt.
This is a sad story. The red nematode factory finally started to generate income, but in order to prevent mudslides, we had to continue the construction. In order to increase the storage of red nematodes, we had to increase the scale of the factory. So we took a series of measures during this period. We bought a large number of boulders and various materials from Qian Duoduo again to truly turn the red nematode factory into a closed armed factory.
However, both *** and Qian Duoduo understood that Jingshu spent a huge amount of money to build a closed red nematode factory. As the factory grew bigger and bigger, it eventually attracted a group of fugitives without identity documents to come and rob it. That group of people was just like the one encountered on the day the eldest aunt got married. They had guns, kerosene bottles, black powder, and homemade bows and arrows and other weapons. They also drove a pickup truck full of cargo, and it seemed that they were going to steal several tons of goods.
Although a single red nematode cake is not valuable, several trucks of worm cakes are still very valuable.
Fortunately, Jingshu's factory had been well prepared and had strong armed forces. With a high reward, they were able to defend the factory. Seeing that they could not take the factory after a long siege, the other side left behind a few corpses and retreated. The factory did not suffer much loss, but it did sound an alarm for Jingshu and gave her a better excuse to continue arming the red nematode factory.
“That group of people hid
The identities of the bodies that were left behind by the people hiding near us were also found, but there was no connection between them at all."
"They have dual identities. They live their own lives in normal times, but secretly run their own organization."
"It's very difficult to catch them, and even harder to trace them. The satellite and monitoring systems have been shut down to supply energy to the artificial sun. Plus, big data doesn't have any information on these people. If they escape, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack."
This was the conclusion that Hengjin came to after Jingshu asked him to investigate, but Jingshu did not give up. These people might come a second time, especially when everyone was out of ammunition and food and their eyes were green with hunger.
When Jingshu opened this factory, she had anticipated this step. Sooner or later, someone would become jealous of the inconspicuous insect cake factory, so she made various preparations.
If the disasters in the few years before the end of the world came like storms that were terrifying and frightening, then among all the disasters in so many years, only the disaster in the fourth year came the most quietly and silently. It was like the spring rain that moistened everything silently, and people could not feel it at all. It would slowly erode everything.
By the time you realize it, it's already too late.
The flood in the second year submerged so much supplies and caused the loss of so much property. The mudslide in the fourth year completely shattered the last bit of hope and it will erode the entire earth!
"Here it comes. It turns out that the fourth year of the apocalypse has begun so early." Jingshu stood on the top of the mountain behind the villa, gently touching the mud that was slowly seeping out from it. It was like water at over 90 degrees, about to boil.
Now it has not attracted anyone's attention. Everyone is still celebrating the end of the earthquake. No one would think about why the mud on the ground has not frozen solid in such cold weather.
"Let's go, home!" Jingshu, wrapped in a thick cotton-padded jacket, breathed a sigh of relief, called Fatty Chicken, turned around and ran down the mountain. Fatty Chicken hung his head and looked unhappy. It had been several days since his owner had to run up the mountain. He didn't know why, but he couldn't find anything to eat anymore. Those delicious insects, even his owner's disgusting carrion worms, were gone.
disappeared.
The whole mountain was silent, dark and still.
The fat chicken shuddered. It always felt a sense of danger, which it couldn't explain, as if something was about to come out.
There are still scattered tents and traces of human habitation at the foot of the mountain. Since the earthquakes stopped, these people have been divided back up, and the Banana Community is once again full of people.
"You're going out in such cold weather! Be careful not to freeze!" Jing's mother handed her a cup of hot milk dissatisfiedly. Looking at Jingshu's red nose from the cold, she felt distressed. "Your constitution makes you prone to sores. Don't run around anymore. Your grandma is asking you, it's almost the New Year, what are your plans?"
