Chapter 121: Extreme Cold. Prepare for the coming of extreme cold
Chuan rented a double-decker sightseeing boat that could carry 60 people as a transfer station. He assigned tasks to Lao Li and Xiao Li, one to go to the trading market to buy, and the other to set up a stall in the private market to receive goods.
He had to work hard and run between the two venues in turn. As long as there was a need for exchange, he had to take people to buy supplies.
After a night of thinking, the cargo list has been finalized. It mainly includes construction tools and other tools, as well as medicines and books. If there are people selling speedboats, we will communicate with them individually.
The outdoor temperature has now reached minus 13 degrees Celsius. She doesn't have much time left. When the extreme cold comes, water, electricity and communications will be completely cut off. Humanity will officially enter the cold winter and the trading market will also be closed.
And she remembered that the government only allowed citizens to use the money in the card to buy supplies before mid-September, and there were still six days until mid-September. Just as she was hesitating whether to tell the other people on the 11th floor about this news, Tang Xiao and Huo Sisi sent her reminder messages respectively. It turned out that it was easy to get things done with someone in the court.
In the next few days, Chu An and Gu Ye acted separately, which also gave her the opportunity to obtain Director Wang's equipment.
The location given by Director Wang is a manor on Xiangshan Mountain in the northern suburbs. Xiangshan Mountain is not very high, only more than 600 meters above sea level, and the mountain is not steep, which is very suitable for lazy people to climb.
Xiangshan was bought by a boss seven or eight years ago to grow sunflowers. There is a manor halfway up the mountain and a villa area at the foot of the mountain. Gu Ye's mother also has a house there.
On the first day of acquisition, a whole ship of boxes was filled.
Various testers, tape measures, bricklaying tools, carpentry tools, concrete vibrators, plumb bobs, chalk lines, etc. There are a lot of books, about 1,000.
No matter how much medicine was confiscated, everyone knew its importance. No one sold any boats, and no one knew when the water would recede. Boats were the hope of survival.
That evening, the cruise ship sailed to Beishan. It had been agreed beforehand that since the unloading time would be long, the captain and crew would drive the speedboat home and come back to pick up the ship the next morning.
Chu An waited until they left and made sure that there was no one around, then put the things into the space and took back Director Wang's "gift" according to the address.
The flame guns were packed in two large iron boxes, and the biochemical suits and positive pressure suits were packed in one aluminum box. After determining the quantity, they were all put into the space.
This continued for the next few days. She stopped receiving supplies from the trading market at three in the afternoon, followed the boat to Beishan, and lived on the cruise ship after receiving the goods.
Gu Ye initially disagreed with her living on the cruise ship, but after seeing her fiddling with the pistol, he sealed his mouth. Then he saw her handing the gun to him, and his eyes widened like bells.
"I'll teach you."
"No, no, no."
"What?"
Take it immediately and start learning mode.
Chu An spent all her money after five days of collecting. She didn't spend all the money on tools, but symbolically bought some rice, flour, grain, oil and daily necessities. Gu Ye didn't ask anything, but told her that he saw Zhuona in the market, and she was not hungry and thin, and she was in good spirits.
She came out with the community, a total of more than a dozen people, the leader was more than 1.9 meters tall, with a strong back and strong waist, and looked difficult to mess with. But he was very nice to Zhuona.
"I bought her 100 kilograms of rice and helped them exchange it for 500 kilograms of rice and 10 bags of salt from their community contact."
Chu An knew the news about Zhuona and she had a clue in her mind. A long time later, she asked Gu Ye about the money.
"I spent 14 million of your money on a bunch of tools and books, why didn't you ask anything?"
Gu Ye was driving and said nonchalantly, "One meal is enough and the other is enough. I can still tell the difference."
During the collection period, some people also had the idea of taking the cruise ship, but they were all sent to Chu An to drink soup, including the captain and crew. In the end, this sightseeing boat went into Chu An's pocket without anyone noticing, and there were four big yellow duck inflatable pedal boats on the boat.
These days, not only Chu An was busy, but other people on the 11th floor were also busy. Tang Xiao, Li Rong and Huo Sisi exchanged all the money in the card for daily consumables, cold-resistant clothing and food, but salt was becoming increasingly difficult to buy.
Yin Tianlin was dozens of times richer than the three of them combined, and he had so much material possessions that 1112 couldn't even fit them all in. Even if he could, he didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket.
However, no one knew what he bought or where he put it. Everyone knew the limits and did not ask.
After the 14 million was spent, Gu Ye was given a day off. He had taken care of the children so much in the past few days that he lost 25 pounds.
Gu Ye likes hot pot, grilled fish, fried chicken and other hot and spicy foods. He had just finished eating hot pot a few days ago, and was rewarded with a grilled fish and a fried chicken with cola.
Chen Xun has been spending less time in the living area lately, so she has to sort out everything by herself. Fortunately, there are only five ships... uh... five ships are quite a lot.
First, she picked out the tools and put them in one area. Then she moved the books, and collected 8,000 books in total. She collected fewer medicines, only vitamins, medicines for lowering the three highs, and anti-allergies. The only thing that made her happy was that she received a box of zipper bandages, so that she didn't have to sew the wounds herself.
The remaining things were very scattered, including 18 bicycles, 3 barrels of fluorescent agent, more than 20 speakers of various models, 2 record players, 20 translation pens, 20 pairs of roller skates, 10 pairs of ice skates, 10 pocket watches, 10 boxes of contact lenses with automatic adjustment of the degree, 2 surfboards, and 1 windsurfing board.
Handcuffs? Nine-ring chain? Jade cabbage? Five years of college entrance exams and three years of simulation?
Then organize, spider robots, sweeping robots, companion robots, laser engraving machines, starch-based bioplastic cards, high-quality speakers, 3D printers, wearable vacuum wall climbers, seaplanes, jet backpacks, paragliders, parachutes, wing suit aircraft, high-tech nano repair materials. Even if this material is broken, it will return to its original shape by rubbing it with your hands. When rubbing with your fingers, the heat is generated, which allows the broken fibers to be reconstructed and restored.
There are also some miscellaneous items and food, which she will sort out slowly when she has time.
During the day, he continued to teach Gu Ye, and after class he had to give him some homework. Sometimes Gu Ye would go to Huo Sisi with the test papers. Now, only she, who had graduated from graduate school, could do better than Chu An.
Days passed one by one, and the temperature dropped day by day. It used to drop by one degree every few days, but now it can drop by several degrees in one day.
Chu An thought it was time to renovate the house. She planned to use all the space upstairs to store food. When the extreme cold came, she could use any part of the space as an ice cellar. Her mother would no longer have to worry about the food going bad.
First, take out three iron racks that are two meters long and half a meter wide from the space, and place rice, flour, grain, oil, dry goods, and daily necessities on them one by one. If you really don't know where to put the supplies, just put an empty cardboard box, and then use the cardboard box to get something from the space if you need it in the future.
Then take out the things needed for the transformation from the space and pile them aside.
She always did it secretly at night. Ever since the two of them had a heart-to-heart talk, Gu Ye's sleep quality had improved dramatically, so he didn't notice.
Gu Ye was needed to renovate the downstairs, so he was called up first. He was a little embarrassed, because a girl's bedroom was not something that could be entered casually.
"Let you work and move all this downstairs."
When Gu Ye heard about working, he immediately felt relieved. He had been driven crazy by studying recently, and as long as it wasn't studying, he would do anything.
