Chapter 172 Extreme Cold. Getting Worse
Less than 18 hours later, Ouyang came up again and brought a salted fish.
Chu An leaned against the door frame and listened to him chattering.
Building A squeezed together 50 kilograms of food, which Liu Cheng handed over to Star City International. They said it was to make up for last month's protection fee, and that another 50 kilograms was required to ensure that he would not be harassed this month.
Not to mention that they couldn't get enough people together, even if they did, they would still starve to death with security guarantees. Everyone had complaints and wanted to fight them directly.
"Someone also asked Liu Cheng to get the rice back."
How can I get it back!!!
The building committee also wanted him to go for negotiation again, but Liu Cheng disagreed and firmly opposed to changing someone else to talk. Li Yan also joined in to stop him.
When the situation was at a stalemate, Liu Cheng suggested that the 11th floor should provide the rice this time, after all, he had not allowed the 11th floor to take it before. Only then did Ouyang come up and tell her about this.
Chu An thought about it and realized that the 40 people from Xingcheng International were still within her mental control range, so they were nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, if Liu Cheng was going to come, he would have come long ago. She didn't even see his shadow now.
"You don't have to worry about what benefits he can get on the 11th floor. He proposed this idea to incite others. After all, it is easier to provide food yourself than to force others to provide food."
"Ah... that's the truth. He is really good at inciting people. Some people actually believe him."
"Take the salted fish back with you. I don't like it." Chu An was about to close the door when Ouyang called him, "Wait...wait a minute."
?
"Well... I will try my best to stop them from coming up to disturb you, but this is not a long-term solution. I still hope that you can join the building committee. As long as everyone is on the same page, they will not embarrass you."
This is a solution, but it is not very useful. "I will consider it."
"If we really need to share the food, would you agree?"
"I can't make the decision on behalf of the 11th floor. Yin Tianlin and the others are back. You can talk to them directly."
"I mean, what about you?"
Chu An has been avoiding answering this question, but he insisted on asking, so he gave him a quick answer, "I won't. But my opinion can't affect the overall situation. In the eyes of the people downstairs, Yin Tianlin is more representative."
When I closed the door and went home, Gu Ye had already brought the fragrant noodles to the table, along with fried luncheon meat, cold pork head and Xinjiang big plate chicken.
How can there be no vegetables?
She opened the refrigerator, took out a head of rapeseed from the refrigerator, fried it in hot water, divided it into two portions, and placed it in the noodle bowl.
In the past few days since I came back, Chu An has been the chef most of the time, with Gu Ye helping out.
He was a little embarrassed, but he rushed to clean the room, plant vegetables, and study more actively. In addition to these two things, he also insisted on exercising for three hours and painting for three hours every day, so his time was fully arranged.
Chu An saw that he exercised a lot, so in order not to affect his growth, he made the food so rich and maintained three meals a day.
When she was not hungry, she would eat less or not eat at all, just to accompany him.
Gu Ye eats every meal with great relish. If this were before the end of the world, he would definitely be able to become a food broadcaster. With his good looks, having a million fans would be a piece of cake.
"By the way, when I went out this morning, I saw Li Rong. He kept holding his hand up, as if he was injured." Gu Ye said while eating, "But there was no bandage, so it's not certain."
"You'll know when you go and see tomorrow."
"Well, I plan to go there tonight. They should be able to rest well after a whole day and night. Hey, it's so chaotic outside now, I don't know when it will end."
Chu An swallowed the noodles in his mouth and asked tentatively, "What if it's like this for five or six years?"
Gu Ye was surprised, "It's so cold?"
Chu An wondered if he would be frightened by natural disasters and give up on himself, "It won't be cold all the time. There may be extreme heat, acid rain, earthquakes, plagues, etc."
Gu Ye just picked up a piece of chicken and stopped at his mouth, "Then can anyone survive?"
"Human beings are very strong, especially those who are selfish and black-hearted, who will live longer." Chu An thought of those who bullied her in her last life, and a trace of cruelty appeared in her eyes. In this life, she would kill every one she met, and would not let the scourge last for thousands of years. However, there were also many people she had not come into contact with, and their future was unpredictable. "According to the current situation, looting and burning may become more and more frequent in the future, and social order will completely collapse, and there will be no morality anymore."
Gu Ye was silent, his lowered eyes revealing no emotion. The noodles picked up by Chu An slid back into the bowl along the chopsticks, and the room seemed to have pressed the pause button.
After a while, Gu Ye's voice sounded, even a little aggrieved, "Then...then can I stop studying? The degree is useless, why should I go to university?"
This kid always associates it with studying. I really think highly of him. I immediately gave him a glare, "What did you say?"
Gu Ye hurriedly got her a tissue, "No... I didn't say anything. Even if there is no university, I still have to study. In the past, knowledge changed destiny, but now knowledge allows people to survive. I strongly request to add an extra course in the future, wilderness survival skills."
Chu An rolled her eyes at him, and the pessimism that had just arisen in her mind disappeared instantly. Big Dog always managed to make her forget her unnecessary worries unexpectedly.
"Have a meal."
"Hehe...eat."
She poured herself a glass of water, knowing that Gu Ye was also afraid, but he did not convey this emotion to her.
Recently, she has been in a negative mood, always afraid that she had not thought of something or done something wrong, and would repeat the mistakes of her previous life or ruin her hard-earned chance for rebirth.
"Why don't you eat anymore?" Gu Ye asked, staring at the noodles in her bowl.
"I'm full." Chu An pushed the bowl over, "If you don't mind me, eat it."
"I don't mind." Gu Ye moved the bowl over, "If you get hungry later, I'll cook for you."
Looking at the boy who ate everything with relish, she felt a little comforted. Shen Xun was right. She was not suitable for living alone and would become more and more extreme. Now that Gu Ye was holding her back, it was good.
Oh, don’t think too much about it. No matter how many years the natural disaster lasts, she will survive it.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, before Gu Ye went to see Tang Xiao, Tang Xiao and Li Rong knocked on the door first. They looked tired, obviously they didn't get enough rest, and no one knew what they had been through.
Tang Xiao said, "I just went downstairs to throw away the garbage and ran into Ouyang. He told us what happened recently."
"What do you think?"
Tang Xiao said, "There are 27 households downstairs now, and he counts 3 households upstairs as us, so if there are 30 households in total, each household will only need to pay 1.7 jin. This amount can buy a month of peace, and we think it's feasible. But we don't have to pay all the time. We can stop when the building is well prepared for defense, or when the government takes some action, or even when the weather changes."
Li Rong added: "He also gave a quota to join the building committee. Young Master Yin is interested in going in and taking a look. He can't always let the people downstairs lead him by the nose."
Tang Xiao smiled bitterly, "Yeah, they always stir up trouble. This time, let's get involved and stir up trouble together. At worst, we can continue to be in opposition. Anyway, nothing can be more difficult than the current situation."
"Since you have decided, I have no objection, but you should still consider carefully before joining the building committee. The quality of the people in the building is uneven, and it may cause trouble for you."
"Don't worry, Master Yin knows what's going on. We will provide food for both of you. Our 11th floor will provide 6 kilograms in total."
Chu An did not refuse. It was not certain whether he would give it or not. Let's see the situation first. After they finished talking, Gu Ye was very concerned about Li Rong's hand. He was afraid that he would not be able to spar with them in the future, so he asked them what happened?
This also brought back bitter memories for the two people.
