"The phone is ringing, the phone is ringing, it's finally ringing. If it doesn't come soon, I'll die of the heat!"
"You know how I spent the day today? I spent the whole day soaking in water, and my skin was blistered, but I didn't dare come out!"
"It's so hot, someone died in our neighborhood again!"
"Another death? What should we do? What should we do with the body?"
"What else can we do? The people at the funeral home don't dare come out, and the people inside don't dare go out. We have no choice but to brave the heat and dig a hole in the shade to bury the body!"
"If we don't go out and bury the body, the body will stink all over the house! If we go out to bury the body, the high temperature outside is not to be trifled with. I can't stand it for more than a few minutes!"
"Stop talking. I just saw someone throw the body outside... Is that something a human would do?"
"Oh my god, how can I live like this? This is driving me to death!"
"Anyone want to go grocery shopping with me? We're all out of food!"
"You go ahead, I don't want to go out, I want to enjoy the air conditioning, the phone finally came!"
"Why buy vegetables? They spoil so easily. Buy something that won't spoil easily!"
"Drying vegetables can prevent them from rotting..."
…
It has to be said that people’s wisdom is infinite. In the face of natural disasters, everyone is actively looking for solutions to survive.
It is indeed a good idea to dry the vegetables.
But the same cannot be said for meat. Even if it is salted enough, in this temperature, the meat will go bad in less than an hour!
After six o'clock, the temperature dropped and some people went out to buy things despite the high temperature.
It’s just that the first day of the apocalypse is the golden period for buying supplies. It will be more difficult to buy supplies today than yesterday.
Even though some large supermarkets had already restocked their grains, oils and vegetables last night, it still couldn't stop people from rushing to buy.
As soon as it was put on the shelves, it was sold out in seconds!
As time goes by, various links will gradually break down and collapse, and the supply of supermarket supplies will become less and less.
Until there was a large-scale power outage, food and non-staple food became rotten, and vegetables dried up and died in batches.
These supermarkets will no longer be able to supply any supplies!
Those who have more supplies on hand start to raise the prices crazily!
Cheng Lan is one of them.
Cheng Lan: "@Everyone, those who bought food from me this morning, my vegetable prices have gone up. A pack of instant noodles is 100 yuan, a bunch of greens is 150 yuan, and a pound of rice is 300 yuan. Please pay the extra money!"
As soon as Cheng Lan finished speaking, those who had already paid in the group quit.
"Why do you change the price so suddenly? I've already paid!"
"Cheng Lan, don't go too far. Is it reasonable for this dish to be so expensive?"
Cheng Lan was not afraid at all. "I still say the same thing. If you want to buy, spend the money. If you don't want to buy, I can return the money. But if I don't buy now, my price may rise even more in the future!"
After hearing what she said, everyone thought that they didn’t know when the heat would subside, so what was the use of having money? They had to get through the current difficulties first!
Some people who have a strong sense of crisis immediately transferred money to Cheng Lan.
Some people who were in urgent need of food were angry, but they still paid.
Some of those with stubborn tempers asked Cheng Lan to return their money, and after searching in other groups but failing to buy supplies, they came back dejectedly and continued to buy from Cheng Lan.
Cheng Lan happily collected the money and looked at the two thermal cabinets in the room with a happy face.
"It's rich! It's rich! I made 130,000 today. If I give it a few more days, I can make even more!"
She used to be a shopping group leader and specially prepared this kind of insulated box for storing supplies. It has its own battery, which can ensure that the battery can continue to provide power for 24 hours when fully charged.
With the help of this thermal cabinet, she made a fortune in the end times.
After collecting the money, she pulled the thermal cabinet and prepared to count the supplies and send them over.
But I smelled a faint stench of rotting vegetables.
She looked and found that many vegetables had turned yellow.
She frowned and immediately thought of a solution.
"Give the good vegetables to those who are hard to talk to, and give these rotten vegetables to those two mothers and that old man. Hey, he didn't die from the heat yet!"
Cheng Lan delivered the supplies, and the rotten vegetables were naturally scolded by the mother, but she pretended not to hear. Instead, the old man quietly took the vegetables without saying anything.
At eight o'clock in the evening, after dealing with several bodies thrown outside, Lao Feng came to Zhou Chuchu.
Just as he was about to make a phone call, Zhou Chuchu came out.
She "saw" Lao Feng coming through the plants early in the morning.
Behind her, Xiaohu followed quietly.
Upstairs, Qin Zeyuan's gaze followed closely.
"Uncle Feng."
Zhou Chuchu took the key and greeted Lao Feng.
"Girl, I'm coming!"
Old Feng saw that Zhou Chuchu was refreshed and not sweating at all in such a hot weather. Instead, she looked radiant. He was happy for her.
He didn't wait for Zhou Chuchu to come closer and took a few steps back. When he was handling the corpse, he was inevitably contaminated by the stench and was afraid of choking her.
"Girl, just throw the key over here. I smell like sweat and...I don't want to stink you!"
Zhou Chuchu smiled and said nonchalantly:
"It's okay, uncle, I'm not afraid!"
The stench of corpses? So what? She had smelled it countless times in her previous life and could now eat calmly among a group of corpses without changing her expression.
Humans will evolve, and the first thing they will evolve is a nose that can ignore the stench of corpses!
Although Lao Feng felt relieved when he heard her say that, he still didn't get close to her.
He couldn't help but remind:
"My dear, people's hearts are corrupting so quickly these days. Once food is scarce, everyone will go crazy!"
"You... your shopping a while ago has already attracted their attention. I'm afraid they must be thinking about you."
"Take the two old ones and the two young ones with you... Be careful and don't go out."
"If you have any problem, just call me. I don't have anything except the ability to beat people."
Old Feng was essentially explaining everything to Zhou Chuchu.
Zhou Chuchu smiled:
"Uncle Feng, I understand. I will be careful."
"But I'm not someone who can be bullied."
Old Feng didn't quite believe it at first, but when he saw the little tiger behind her, which was about one meter tall, big and strong, with sharp eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"This tabby is really nice!"
He praised sincerely, this is even more powerful than a military dog!
Zhou Chuchu sent Lao Feng to the villa next door and gave him the key, and Lao Feng officially moved into the villa.
In the townhouse, Yu Haoli's body was covered with festering ulcers, emitting a foul odor.
Green flies the size of thumbs flew around her.
Her two boyfriends were not much better than her.
