Chapter 008 Chapter 8
Ji Yang paid and watched the page change quickly. The merchant and the rider accepted the order. He breathed a sigh of relief and took out his phone to send messages to some good friends in his memory: [I heard that the snow will last for more than half a month. Do you have enough food at home? ]
The message was sent to the group directly, and Zhao Xing was the first to reply: [Oh, you busy man finally remembered me]
Ji Yang: [You have been too busy recently. Do you have enough food stored at home to last for a month? ]
Zhao Xing first threw an angry emoticon, then replied: [Is it enough to eat for a few days? Does it really have to rain for that long? ]
Ji Yang: [Yes, I am sure. You should buy something now and order takeout. There might be a water and power outage at that time. Please be careful.]
Snow disasters are something that people in the south have rarely experienced, so Zhao Xing was skeptical. But thinking about Ji Yang's special message to remind him, he still ordered some takeout.
Then a few more people replied to Ji Yang, but few were willing to stock up.
After five years, Ji Yang really didn't have much feelings for them. He reminded them in place, but didn't answer where they lived recently. He just turned off his phone and got up to get busy.
The end of the world has arrived, and the next thing to do is of course to improve ourselves.
In her previous life, she relied on her ruthlessness and determination to do whatever it took to get something to eat. Later, when the world became difficult, everyone risked their lives for a bite to eat. She was able to survive mainly because she was shameless enough to attend classes for free, was willing to give away food to ask for advice from the big guys, learned a little here and a little there, and found her own way.
But now that she is reborn, everything is back to zero, her skills and muscles are all gone!
It hurts to think about it.
I have to start training again.
But before that, you have to take good care of the little babies in the space.
Cleaning, clearing feces, feeding and watering are all daily tasks in breeding.
While cleaning, Ji Yang found that there was no feces. Instead, many grass seeds caught in the cracks had successfully taken root and sprouted. Of course, compared with the grass next door where there were no livestock, it could be said that it was not well developed, but the speed was already good.
Ji Yang was a Buddhist, he had already had so many adventures, so when he encountered something he couldn't figure out, he would just not think about it. He put down the water and food, and watched the chickens, ducks, and geese flapping their wings to eat. The quail and rooster fell behind, cowering timidly, and raised their eyebrows.
I hope the grass grows quickly. Once it’s all grown, I can raise these birds separately according to their size to prevent them from being killed by the grass.
Fortunately, so far, the quail and the fowl just look a little timid, but they are still in good spirits. After the three big guys, the goose, the duck and the chicken, finish eating, they immediately run over and start eating happily.
After tidying up the space, Ji Yang brushed his teeth, washed his face, cooked today's portion of meat for Xixi, and prepared some goat milk. Seeing Xixi eating, he took out his breakfast and started eating too.
Yesterday’s hard work has brought her today’s enjoyment. The cooked food she had worked so hard to stockpile is now available for her to enjoy today. It can last her three meals a day and will last her many years!
Delicious.
Ji Yang took a sip of the soy milk and began to plan in his mind how to exercise his body as quickly as possible to restore everything to the state of his previous life.
——
People are lazy. After Ji Yang was reborn, he was busy stockpiling goods. He wanted to fly everywhere without touching the ground, but overall his body was relaxed.
You just need to spend money, and the rest will be done by special workers.
So much so that after only half an hour of exercising for the first time, her chest and lungs began to feel hot and uncomfortable. She endured the pain and persisted for another ten minutes, then collapsed in sweat all over.
The air conditioner was on and the fireplace was burning. The temperature in the whole house was about 17 or 18 degrees, which was very comfortable. Ji Yang was not afraid of catching a cold. He closed his eyes, but his mind did not rest and he was immersed in the space.
She didn't know what this space was like. The animals lived well in it, but she herself couldn't adapt to it. After staying there for a long time, she felt uneasy and insecure anywhere. Even sealing it with a quilt was useless.
In the end, Ji Yang felt that it should be the factor of the space environment. This is not a real world, but more like an alien dimension opened up outside the world. There is no sky, and except for the land under the feet, everything else is nothingness. It gives people a trance feeling of being in space, unable to be down to earth like on Earth.
If she stayed in there for too long, her mental state, which had already been abnormal during the five years of the apocalypse, would probably collapse. Therefore, after studying the situation of the space, Ji Yang decided not to stay in the space as much as possible.
Fortunately, the space can be used with consciousness. For example, at this moment, when she was tidying up the space, she could use her consciousness as easily as using her hands and feet, and it was even easier to put things away.
Ji Yang bought a lot of things, and the warehouse was a bit messy when she packed them up. It was still quite troublesome to sort them out now, especially since she had a mild obsessive-compulsive disorder and always liked to put things in neat order.
Therefore, the 10,000 square meter space was directly divided into partitions.
Vegetarian area, meat area, snack area, canned food area, industrial area, extremely cold area, extremely hot area, large items area...
With this division, almost everything is clear at a glance.
Especially according to Ji Yang's preferences, she can immediately find the partition and find what she wants. For example, if she wants a bottle of Lao Gan Niang at the moment, she will naturally go to the canned food area. With a quick glance, a can appears in her hand in almost one or two seconds.
With this arrangement, finding things became more efficient. After stacking things one by one, Ji Yang finally reached the top of the space - twenty meters.
It’s almost as high as six or seven floors.
So much so that she spent nearly 200 million to stock up on enough food and daily necessities to last her several lifetimes. After tidying up the space, one-third of the space was still left empty.
It would be a waste if it was left empty. Ji Yang's desire to buy something for free began to stir. He didn't want to grab survival resources, but those things that no one wanted during the extreme cold, such as various metals, glass, cement, lime, floor tiles, computers, mobile phones...
Everything that the eyes can see is put into the space.
It will come in handy in the future!
Of course, this is a plan for later. If she does it now, she will have to operate the sewing machine.
The heavy snow did not stop on the first day of the Lunar New Year. By midnight, the snow had become even heavier, a blizzard. Dense snowflakes fell from the sky like goose feathers and quickly accumulated on the ground. By the second day of the Lunar New Year, everyone was shocked to find that the snow had reached their calves!
Snow of this magnitude has only been seen once in more than a decade.
So everyone became even more excited. While Ji Yang was exercising, he took the time to check his phone. His social accounts and various apps were all about the grand occasion of the snowstorm.
Almost everyone went to have a snowball fight.
Some are fully equipped and just go skiing on a big slope, which draws a lot of envious comments.
But soon someone noticed something was wrong.
Why is it snowing so heavily all over the country?
And the snow never stops. How are they going to get out? The Spring Festival holiday is about to end. If they don’t return, they will never be able to go back!
If migrant workers can’t go back home, it means they have no money!
Mortgages, car loans, and child-rearing expenses cannot be interrupted.
The bad news kept coming so quickly that some people said they were worried they wouldn't be able to drive back to work. At noon that day, news came from all major airports and high-speed railways that various itineraries that were originally scheduled to be delayed might be cancelled.
This stone caused a thousand ripples and the whole place went crazy.
The workers were panicking and began to think of ways to deal with the situation. What could they possibly do? With such heavy snow, even cars were afraid to move.
Snow tires can't hold up for long.
Some people just don't believe it and insist on going on the road. Before long, their cars get stuck in the middle of the road or collide with other cars. Some are even more unlucky and suffer a series of car accidents due to heavy snow on the first day of the New Year. They have been stuck until now, and it has been more than 24 hours.
Looking again, the delivery fee for takeout has reached fifty or sixty. Many people posted their complaints online, but were immediately refuted by photos. The deliverymen's electric vehicles in the photos could not be driven at all, and many people had to run to deliver the food.
The person who was complaining shut up and had no choice but to buy some vegetables and cook for himself.
On the third day, heavy snow was still falling.
Except for occasionally becoming a little smaller, when people begin to hope that it will stop, it will become bigger again, ruthlessly telling everyone that it will not stop!
The original weather forecast was for heavy snow for three days, but now it has turned into a sudden snowstorm. When scrolling down the page, there is no possibility of other weather conditions at all.
Severe weather warnings came one after another, the words used became more severe each time, and the temperature dropped quietly, so much so that people kept asking for help because their water pipes at home were frozen and the water supply was cut off.
But who can help at this time?
Everyone is unable to take care of themselves, so they either have to go out to buy water themselves, or spend a lot of money to have food delivery services deliver water.
The increasingly difficult situation has caused panic among the entire network.
The voices on the Internet have gradually become angry, from complaining about the weather to blaming the government, why not clear the snow? Why not do everything possible? !
Are they just eating and drinking with taxpayers' money? !
Then various photos and videos appeared of government workers shoveling snow with shovels in the heavy snow to reassure the public.
Then some rational people came to try to reconcile.
With this snow, even spreading salt won’t help, and there aren’t enough snowplows.
The government has tried its best.
Public opinion became agitated, but it died down within two days. Not many people were criticizing it because some people were keenly aware that something was wrong.
There have been countless disasters, big and small, in recent years, including droughts, floods, blizzards, wildfires, etc. Rumors of the end of the world have been heard everywhere, and most people don’t believe them anymore, mainly because the salt they bought has not been consumed in ten years.
But this time, with the nationwide and even global snowstorm, a small number of people have begun to prepare. Apart from anything else, they have to buy food that will last the whole family for several months.
Anyway, the weather is cold now, so it won’t break down in a short time.
Ji Yang also received some messages, most of which were thanking her for the reminder, and some people wanted to inquire about the news, wanting to know whether the snowstorm would really be over in half a month.
Ji Yang changed his words: [They said it would take at least half a month, but looking at the situation, it might be more than that.]
She didn't say anything else.
After hearing this, the person on the other end of the network cable looked unhappy, then sighed and continued to stock up.
Zhao Xing was extremely thankful: [Fuck, sister, your information is so accurate. I was so scared by the snow. Fortunately, I stocked up some food.]
[You don’t know that prices are skyrocketing now, especially delivery fees, 200 yuan per kilometer, so scary! ]
Ji Yang was not surprised at all, and only reminded her: [Don’t worry about this, buy as much as you can, but don’t be arrogant, I’ve been seeing a lot of doomsday theories recently, if the apocalypse knew that you have supplies at home, you’d be screwed]
[Hahaha, you’re in your second year again?] Zhao Xing didn’t believe it and laughed at it instead.
Ji Yang didn't say much and stopped there.
How far Zhao Xing and the others can go depends on themselves.
Living her life over again, she just wanted to make herself live comfortably. As for other people, after reminding them, the rest were no longer within her consideration.
