Chapter 519: Mudslides Can Also Eat Up Everything
It is truly spectacular at first glance. It is not arranged like a supermarket, but more like a warehouse, with a wide variety of products, each type sold by the box.
"Look, are you okay? You're not worried anymore, are you?"
With a snap, he turned off the lights, pulled Jingnai out, locked the door with a clang, and quickly put all the rice and flour inside into the space.
Jing Nai was a bit lingering, smacking her lips: "I haven't seen enough yet...I haven't even counted how many bags of food we have left. Why are you so anxious?"
Jingshu was afraid that Jingnai would read too much and remember it, then how could she fool people next time?
Grandma Jing whispered excitedly, "Look, there are dozens or even hundreds of bags of rice and flour, piled up as high as a mountain. Granddaughter, why did you buy so much food?"
Jingshu curled her lips. They had already eaten most of the food without realizing it, and it had only been three years. It seemed she would have to plant some rice in the space. However, it was still too early, so she would have to wait a while. After all, she didn't have any good seeds right now...
She also wants to eat Dongda rice, Yutian's rouge rice, and Zhafang tribute rice... She is a person who pursues quality of life.
Well, should she urge the seed delivery person again? It's been half a year, is her seed safe? It's so frustrating! Especially with this mudslide, if it gets buried in the soil, she'll be crying her eyes out. Maybe she should go out and look for it...
"They said they would only sell them wholesale for a few hundred bags. I bought them without thinking and hid them in the basement. I spent a lot of money but I didn't dare tell my mom. Grandma, please don't let anything slip."
Jingnai nodded like a chick pecking at rice, her heart completely relieved. "This rice will get worms if left for too long. You have to take good care of it."
"Okay, then I'll go dig a canal." Jingshu wore rubber shoes and carried a special iron shovel to dig the soil.
Life in Lao Jing's family returned to normal. They ate and drank as usual, and were busy at work, but the atmosphere was not good.
Although mudslides are not as frequent and deadly as earthquakes, they keep flowing. The thin parts are fine, but the sticky parts are like glue. Everything they swallow up will disappear permanently.
Lao Jing's family wasn't reborn either, so everyone was worried. What if the mudslide flooded their villa? So every day after dinner, everyone would open the back gate and go to the back hill to check. Seeing that the walls of the other villas were piled dozens of centimeters high with mud and water, while the tombstone in front of their own villa had already diverted the mud and water, showing no sign of accumulation, they felt relieved.
However, the impact of the mudslide is indeed huge, especially it has caused great difficulties in everyone's lives. Jing's father's farm had finally started to improve, but now it has stopped again. The placement of poultry, poultry breeding and feed are all problems again.
Jingma's agricultural department is not much better off. They used to have a choice, but now they have to use soilless cultivation as a catalyst to grow vegetables. The artificial sun has also started to have mudslides, which cannot be stopped, so they have been rushing to harvest recently. Jingma has already worked overtime for a week.
Jingshu's red nematode factory increased its investment some time ago and got a lot of huge rocks from Qian Duoduo to divert the mudslide, so the situation is not that bad now.
The mudslide destroyed the land and had a great impact on people's livelihood. In the past, if people had electric lights and good insulation at home, they could grow some crops to relieve the pressure of decay. Now mud and water are coming out of the ground, destroying countless crops.
Overall, people are eating less.
From this point of view, since Qian Duoduo's stone garden is built of stone and the base is all made of stone, mudslides seem to have no effect on that land, so, isn't this attracting envy?
The situation in Ningshan City was not good either. In just ten days, they were forced to move to the last two resettlement sites. A lot of workers were recruited to go to Ningshan City to rescue supplies. Trucks were running back and forth, transporting back countless important supplies.
If this situation continues, the people of Ningshan City will have to abandon the entire city and start migrating.
Where to migrate?
There is only Wucheng left.
That's a city with a population of one million. Even if three years have passed since the end of the world,
There must be hundreds of thousands of survivors, right? If they flood into Wucheng, that would only make it more difficult to prove corruption. Hundreds of thousands of mouths crying out for food, how could the proof of corruption be ignored?
However, this matter was very far away from Jingshu in her previous life. In her previous life, Jingshu was about to starve to death and had no time to care about so many things. In this life, it doesn’t matter. She feels that it has little to do with her.
Jingshu's main concern was that in her previous life, a tyrant was about to take office. In this life, she, a little butterfly, had flapped her wings and saved the current leader. What would happen next? If the tyrant didn't leave, would he still treat Qian Duoduo like a fat sheep? No, would the tyrant come to Wucheng again?
But let alone the tyrant, even Jingshu wanted to kill Qian Duoduo, the fat sheep. The welfare in Shiyuan was so good that it was simply a fairyland.
The food in the entire Wucheng declined again. It didn't even last until the Lantern Festival, and the insect cakes were replaced with earth insect cakes. To be honest, the taste was naturally not as good as the pure meat insect cakes. The insect cakes were chopped up and added with a little salt, but they were still as tough as chewing rubber bands. The cakes mixed with earth tasted like chewing firewood and were really hard to swallow.
Luckily, the earthworm cakes were 0.5 virtual coins each, which was a lot cheaper. Otherwise, it would have been completely unfair. Jingshu's red nematode factory also made pure meat worm cakes, but who was she to blame for the huge debt she owed ***la? She had to pay it back every month.
Fortunately, this tense atmosphere did not last long, and even Jing Ye felt relieved.
The profession of digger became popular in just one day because the 7 o'clock news did a column on how to get rich:
"Are there a lot of red nematodes? We've already eaten them to extinction. Are mudslides scary? No, they're not scary at all. They will be our staple food for the next year. The more they flow, the more we'll eat.
Now, we invite Mr. Liu, who has earned a millionaire's fortune by digging dirt and making dirt cakes, to teach us how to be a real dirt digger and how to eat dirt healthily. Please come!"
"When the mudslide hit, I knew there was a business opportunity. I've lived in Africa for ten years and I know firsthand how to make delicious mud cakes."
"I contracted a valley, hired people to dig, did business with a garbage station, and partnered with a corrupt official. I encountered many difficulties, but I didn't give up..."
This show is a bit strange. Every time I watch it, I always have the illusion that I can get rich if I do this.
So when everyone went to see the mudslide again the next day, Jing Ye felt like he was looking at flowing gold. Even Jing Shu was frowning and wondering whether he should... open another mud cake factory?
