Chapter 3 Chapter 3
Some savvy construction companies have long been developing mobile homes. These homes not only require no foundation, but are also retractable and detachable, incorporating various modern technologies. As long as you're willing to spend the money, they're more practical than physical homes.
Bai He is a freelancer who works part-time at several jobs. He doesn't spend a lot of money on a daily basis, so he has a considerable amount of savings in his bank account. He originally wanted to save this money for retirement, but now he doesn't need it anymore.
Qingcheng is a first-tier city with numerous construction companies. After comparing several, Bai He chose one with a good reputation and high efficiency.
Bai He was willing to spend money, and all the materials and equipment in the mobile house were of high quality, so this house cost him half of his savings.
After solving the most important problem, Bai He looked at the vast expanse of black soil in his space and felt that it would be unprofitable not to grow anything. Therefore, he decided to go to the largest seedling market in Qingcheng the next day.
Bai He originally thought that the nightmares and poor sleep he had the previous night were due to the space, but now that the space had appeared, his problem was solved.
But the facts told him no.
Waking up again at two in the morning, Bai He stared at the light above his head.
After a long time, he took out a medicine box from the bedside table and took out a pill from it.
Psychotropic drugs all have a hypnotic effect. They suppress the patient's mental activity and reduce the patient's excitement through sleep. Therefore, it is common to see some patients with dull eyes.
After taking the medicine, Bai He fell asleep again. When he woke up, it was almost eleven o'clock.
I slept for a long time but the sleep quality was poor. When I woke up, my chest felt tight and my head felt heavy, as if I had been soaked in a bowl of water, heavy and bloated. But it was much better than the feeling of my heart pounding and dying at any moment yesterday.
After opening his eyes, Bai He did nothing but look at the time. He just lay on the bed in a daze.
He hadn't eaten in over ten hours, but he wasn't hungry at all, nor did he feel like getting up. He didn't want to do anything. The whole world held no appeal to him. Five minutes passed, and Bai He forced himself to get up. His will fought against his body's instincts, leaving him as stiff as a machine.
Bai He arrived at the Herb Market as planned. Upon arrival, he saw a striking red banner hanging. It was the time of the annual expo, and merchants from all over the country came to participate. The market was filled with a dazzling array of goods, which was just convenient for Bai He.
Bai He selected a number of fruit seedlings and trees based on his preferences. He also bought a lot of grain seeds. Bai He grew up in the countryside, and every year, sowing and harvesting grain was inevitable, so he had quite a bit of farming experience. But honestly, farming from a young age doesn't mean Bai He loves it. Farming is too tiring, and the effort isn't proportional to the reward.
Fortunately, with the advancement of technology, things that once made Bai He feel bitter have become easier and more convenient. Furthermore, his space was limited. After deducting the area occupied by the house and the trees, there were only two acres left for farming.
Bai He was a practical man, and everything he planted in the space was something he could use. He wouldn't even glance at the dazzling, highly ornamental flowers in the nursery market.
Bai He planned to dig a small pond next to the spring to see if he could raise aquatic products. If he could, he would be able to achieve true self-sufficiency.
There were so many things to buy that Bai He rented a truck to transport them before he arrived. He drove the truck to a deserted suburb and transferred all the fruit seedlings inside into the space.
After finishing all that and driving back to the city, he felt a sour sensation in his stomach, a familiar burning sensation, and a weak and sore limb. He hadn't eaten all day.
The sky began to darken, and the colorful lights in the city were turned on. This moment seemed even more lively than during the day. Various night stalls were set up on the streets, and adults who worked hard during the day could also take time out to leisurely stroll along the streets.
The air was filled with the smell of various foods, and Baihe's eating instinct was also aroused.
Bai He walked into a late-night snack shop that smelled the best.
Through the store's wide-open kitchen, you can see the clay pot porridge bubbling on the gas stove.
"Boss, give me a bowl of seafood porridge, a roujiamo, and ten skewers of lamb..." Bai He took the menu and ordered the dishes that interested him.
It’s just evening now and the late-night snack shop has just opened so there aren’t many people there, so the food is served quickly.
A jar of steaming seafood porridge filled to the brim. Stirring it with a spoon, I could see the vibrant red shrimp and tender white crab meat. The ingredients were generous. A sip while it was still hot was delicious. This warm, salty porridge was a perfect soothing relief for Bai He, who hadn't eaten all day. The acid in her stomach subsided, and the nagging stomach ache subsided.
Bai He loves to eat strong flavors, and he always orders lamb skewers and duck skin when he goes to the barbecue. He likes to eat this kind of food with fat, which is oily but not greasy when he bites it, and the rich aroma of the meat is highlighted.
Bai He ate very seriously, taking a bite of meat and a mouthful of porridge.
The TV in the late-night snack shop was broadcasting the news.
"Recently, various hospitals in Lin City have been receiving patients with pneumonia of unknown cause. Examination has revealed a highly contagious virus. Residents are advised to take precautions when traveling. If you experience any of the following symptoms... seek medical attention immediately..."
Bai He ate as he watched, and soon, only a pile of bone skewers and a half-empty can of seafood porridge remained on his table. The seafood porridge here was sold by the can, and each can was enough for several people. Bai He wasn't a big eater, so naturally, he couldn't eat so much. He wasn't one to waste food, and living alone wasn't particular about it, so he planned to pack up the leftovers for breakfast tomorrow.
After eating, Bai He couldn't help but yawn. After running all day and not getting enough rest, he felt a little exhausted. He put on his mask again and walked slowly towards the car.
At this time, his cell phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number. Bai He answered
"Bai He, I'm Su Xingye, let's meet!"
Very direct.
After Su Xing finished speaking, the line fell silent. He didn't push her, nor did he hang up.
After a long time, Bai He said, "Okay, see you there and when."
"Tomorrow at noon, at the Zisu Pavilion at the west gate of Qingda University"
