This is the thing about shopping. No matter how carefully you buy something, you will always find that you seem to have missed something in the end.
Now when mothers-in-law from various families get together, it is natural to bring up this topic, and if they need anything, they can also make a deal.
Bartering! Not only do people really need it, but they also find it quite novel.
"I accidentally bought all the sanitary napkins for the day and haven't even changed the nighttime ones?" He even complained, "We're fine. The house behind the portal has automatic garbage disposal, so using them is no problem. But what about the kids in the future? Are they going to use sanitary pads? Or wood ash?"
"Tampons are also okay?"
"But this stuff is hard to clean up. Everyone has to pay for the manure. Isn't there a wooden shed outside every yard in this village? I guess it's used as a dry toilet, right?"
"Wait a minute, we've already solved it behind the Anywhere Door. What if we can't hand over the fat?"
"When we first traveled through time and used the renovation card, who remembered to install a toilet?"
"Ouch!" Many people were speechless when asked about this: "We didn't even think about building toilets at the time. We hadn't used dry toilets in decades, so it really didn't occur to us at the moment."
"Fortunately, no one has noticed this yet. Let's quickly build one ourselves."
"This is hard to build. I don't even know where to find a big bucket. Should I just dig a hole and make do?"
"Why don't we go to the indigenous people's homes and see what their latrines look like? We used to use boards, but theirs are a different style, right?"
"If every household were to rebuild a new pit toilet, it would be very difficult, right? Besides, this thing... is really unbearable. It's so hot now, what if someone faints and falls in the pit toilet?"
"Hey, I'm becoming more and more pretentious. I didn't care about these things before. Who hasn't used a dry toilet as a child? There's a stream right below our dry toilet, which is about five meters high. Every time I go to the toilet, I worry about falling into the stream."
"Hahahaha!" Mother Xu couldn't help but say, "It was the same with us. After that, the adults wouldn't let us play in the creek, so we would sneak away. We didn't know it was covered in feces and urine. After we found out, we didn't dare go there anymore."
“Hahahahaha!!”
At this time, Wang Cuiping said, "I think we shouldn't build dry toilets ourselves. We should just ask the village chief. I think the difference between the north and the south is quite large. And who knows what kind of map structure the city in the book has? We don't know how low the temperature here is in winter. I traveled to Alaska before, and except for the city, all the houses outside had their own pits."
"Why sprinkle poop powder? We'll do it next year."
"Auntie Wang, did you walk that far?" Everyone was stunned! ! "And... what, what is poop powder?"
"It turns the poop in the pit into something like jelly, because it takes a while for a car or boat to pump it away."
"yue..."
Wang Cuiping smiled and said, "What I mean is that if the temperature here gets very low in the winter, we might not be able to use outdoor toilets."
"That shouldn't be a big problem." At this time, another woman in the community who looked to be in her early twenties spoke up. Of course, if she looked to be in her early twenties now, she must have been at least 40 years old before the time travel. "I've been to the Death Highway before. There's a public restroom there that's almost like a tourist attraction, or more accurately, an outdoor restroom. Everyone who passes by has to punch a check-in. The restroom is in temperatures of -60 to -70 degrees Celsius, and the feces in the pit are almost piled up like a peak. Everyone has to use a stick and knock on it as they go, otherwise it will get stuck."
Everyone immediately looked like an old man on the subway looking at his phone: "Eh!!!!!!"
So everyone decided to send a representative to ask what to do with the toilet. Everyone thought public toilets were fine. They didn't use them often anyway, so at most they could reduce their work points slightly. Wasn't constipation a problem? The main thing was that there was something there.
The main purpose of today was to get to know each other better, so that we wouldn't be unable to recognize each other's names after nodding and smiling at each other in the future. Before the time travel, the neighborhood relationships were a bit cold, but now that we've returned to this day and age, we must be more careful. After all, we are actually a small group now, so we must not be scattered from the beginning.
We were familiar with each other and decided on a representative to go to the village chief's house. There was always a shortage of people popping up in this kind of thing. It was inconvenient for men to go and their fighting power was far less than that of mothers-in-law, so everyone decided to use bricks directly.
Then everyone goes back home and finds a child.
…
The Xu family is now thinking about how to modify this rope. After all, they are taking all their belongings with them, so it is natural that they cannot be too careful.
"You can wear a few fake red strings on your hands, but we still have to hide our real red strings."
"Will this thing become waste after we take all the supplies?"
"Then we have to protect it now. The most important thing is to see how we can trick the time travelers."
