Chapter 38 Snowstorm [VIP]
Although the Tang family did not participate in the uprising, some people in the building did join in the fun, especially Li Feiyang, who couldn't hold back his words and broadcast all the information using the walkie-talkie that day.
The security department had not only been breached but also completely plundered. However, they couldn't just kill the remaining security team members and Captain Zhou Ping, so they simply squeezed them back like they were the residents, driving them out of Hexinyuan and leaving them to fend for themselves.
Neighborhood committee director Sun Gaohan distributed the supplies in the security room to a few key personnel. He tried to comfort the others who didn't get any, and quickly formed various small teams. Some went out to forage for food, some to search for fuel, and some to gather external information.
Especially since he alone is equivalent to re-establishing the neighborhood committee, the issue of the building manager must also be properly resolved.
"Sister Tian, you don't know that I even got a bag of instant noodles!"
Li Feiyang's tone was cheerful, but Tang Tian was not so optimistic.
Although it seems to be in good order, some of the "building managers" who are the kings of the buildings will not be happy. They are used to being the boss, and now there is another one above their heads, how can they obey?
Moreover, if time goes on and the problem of food and clothing is still not solved, Sun Gaohan will still be dismissed. It is not easy to be a manager.
I don’t know what Wang Hui thinks, but Tang Tian has no intention of being a manager. She just wants to live her life well.
Just like now, she was tinkering with the system again and found a dish suitable for making now.
It is also a delicacy in the SR-level recipe - cold ice grass salad.
Originally, Tang Tian didn't want to unlock it, but she suddenly remembered that one of the ingredients she got when she signed in was this ice grass, so she took it out and mixed it with the seasonings collected from the workshop, and quickly made a portion.
【Cold Icegrass Salad】
[Fresh and refreshing, dotted with tiny ice crystals. 30% chance of gaining Wood Attribute LV5 and Ice Attribute LV3 after consumption.]
Tang Tian was pleasantly surprised.
It really deserves to be an SR-level dish, with two supernatural power bonuses from the start!
Although the cold salad method seems low-level, the ingredient ice grass seems to be rare. Since the system was activated, Tang Tian has only harvested it two or three times.
This ability is more suitable for Wei Mingxia, so Tang Tian gave the cooking to the latter.
With a higher level bonus, Wei Mingxia can upgrade both her supernatural powers and mental strength to another level.
For some reason, Tang Haifeng hasn't come to harass me for a while.
But Tang Tian didn't think that their family had moved out of here. Maybe they were secretly planning something!
Although Tang Haifeng is not the kind of person who will not give up until he achieves his goal, he has Lai Meiyan by his side who is good at whispering in his ears.
Especially Tang Zirui, who was even more powerful in front of the former. Once the mother and daughter opened their mouths, Tang Haifeng would definitely be unable to walk.
Tang Tian discovered and understood all these things in her previous life, so this time, it would be best if the Tang family could disappear completely!
…
But when it came to those people, Tang Tian suddenly became dazed. As she was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
Nowadays, no one wants to expose any part of their body, including their eyes. It is impossible to recognize them clearly from the surveillance footage, so we can only rely on sound.
So Tang Tian went to open the window above the door.
The person outside the door was Qian Peng's wife.
Qian Peng's family no longer has any gold bars or jade, and Tang Tian hasn't gone out much these days. The supplies she brought them last time are probably about to be eaten up.
"Miss Tang, I have some things here and I want to exchange them with you. Is that okay?"
Qian Peng's wife was still somewhat polite and seemed to be holding something in her hand.
It was a complete, warm-looking fur coat. Tang Tian recalled that she had worn it herself, or on her child, several times before she had been to 1101.
Unfortunately, this can't be paid for with real money, so she shook her head and refused.
Qian Peng's wife's eyes widened instantly, and she asked anxiously:
"Why? This coat is worth as much as those jewels, and it's still useful. I had no choice but to exchange it with you for supplies. Why wouldn't you give it to me?"
It sounded as if Tang Tian had to change this time, and change more.
Tang Tian sneered:
"I'm out of supplies, is that an excuse? This coat is good, you can find someone else, or keep it for yourself. We exchanged money for goods, so no one owes anyone anything!"
After she finished speaking, she immediately closed the window and ignored him. Qian Peng's wife was so anxious that she hurriedly knocked on the door, but Tang Tian did not open the door no matter what.
Qian Peng's wife kicked the door a few times in anger, but soon she felt a heavy despair.
The supplies at home were almost gone, and she finally decided to take out her warm mink coat in exchange, but the other party didn't want it. What should they do?
Just then, there was a noise outside, but she didn't listen carefully.
Until Qian Peng climbed up the stairs panting and saw his wife sitting dejectedly in the corridor, still holding the mink coat. He hurriedly went forward to pull it up, stamped his feet and said:
"Hurry up, hurry up! The government is distributing relief food! Didn't you hear?"
Qian Peng's wife was immediately surprised.
There has been no news since the first distribution of relief supplies. How can they not be excited when there is finally news?
Not to mention Qian Peng's family, all 15 buildings rushed downstairs.
Of course the Tang family heard it too, it was playing in a continuous loop.
Tang Tian looked through the telescope and saw wave after wave of people running aimlessly on the snow like ants coming out of the snow.
Sun Gaohan and others were right next to Building 15, which was the midpoint between Hexinyuan.
"Quiet! Quiet! Everyone, be quiet for a moment!"
Sun Gaohan first stopped the people's excitement and then repeated the official news, which Tang Tian could hear clearly.
The good news: the relief food and supplies were delivered. The bad news: this time they couldn't be delivered to each community one by one, but were instead delivered according to community boundaries.
And because most of the ground-floor buildings were buried in snow, people could only go to high-rise buildings, so they decided to go to an office building five kilometers away and let people pick up the supplies on their own.
This certainly caused a lot of complaints. With only one breath left, how could they possibly have the energy to run ten kilometers back and forth? But thinking that they would finally have supplies, they swallowed their anger and went back to make preparations.
The Shen family also heard the news, and not long after, Shen Boyun came knocking on the door to inquire.
But Tang Tian didn't want to go out so early in the morning, with so many people around, and who knew what kind of trouble would arise. Since there wasn't a time limit or quantity limit for the supplies this time, she found an excuse to decline.
Shen Boyun heard the implication and did not bother to argue any further. He quickly went back to pack up and planned to go out.
…
"Tiantian, I'll go out this time too. We don't know how long this natural disaster will last. What if it never ends? We have a system, but it may still take years or even decades. I have to go outside to adapt!"
Although Wei Mingxia is still frightened by Tang Tian and Tang Yi's last encounter with danger, she also understands the reason behind it and is not the kind of person who would lose hope and just wait for death.
Tang Tian thought that the supplies would probably be distributed per person this time, so she smiled and agreed:
"Okay, Mom, but then there won't be anyone guarding the house. But it's okay. Let's tidy up the house before we leave. Even if someone comes, we can't let them get anything!"
The newly upgraded warehouse is very large and can store all the furniture and items in the house. When you come back, you can put them back in their original positions, which is very convenient.
Without hesitation, the mother and her two daughters launched an all-round sweep, and Hexinyuan suddenly became harmonious. No one argued, quarreled or fought, and they all headed towards the designated office building in a determined manner.
The Shen family, Li Feiyang, Qian Peng's family, and even Wang Hui and his group, and Tang Haifeng's family who are hiding somewhere, are probably all there.
The house was almost completely clean, with the exception of the decoration and heating equipment. Even if someone else took over the house, they would just deal with it and that was it.
Tang Tian clapped her hands, then sat down on the ground with Tang Yi and Wei Mingxia, and opened the system to prepare delicious food.
In this situation where all the survivors around are out, it is a good time to eat something with a strong smell, so Tang Tian decided to arrange a spicy hot pot directly!
In the blink of an eye, a hot pot with heating materials was placed on the ground. Many peppers were floating on the red bottom of the pot, which made people drool just by looking at it.
There were also many plates on the side, filled with vegetables, mushrooms and roots, as well as soy products from the workshop, shrimps, crabs, shellfish and fish from the fish cages, and beef and mutton from the ranch.
This is not the kind of roll made with fat beef or lamb, but freshly cut meat with the best color and texture.
Tang Tian even took out a few bags of hot pot meatballs from the warehouse, which are a must-have for hot pot. There were also a few boxes of soy milk, which could be quickly cooled by placing them on the balcony for a few seconds.
However, because she had to go out after dinner, Tang Tian also made a few dishes with warming powers and prepared the sauce according to her own preferences.
Everything is ready, let’s eat!
Tan Tan was so overwhelmed by the aroma that he was staggering as he walked. Tang Tian prepared something edible for him and put it in a special basin for him to feast on.
The three of them were out, and she couldn't leave the dog alone, so she prepared to take it out as well.
The fresh ingredients are cooked after just a few dips in the boiling pot. The tender meat slices and refreshing mushrooms and vegetables are all covered in red. They are spicy and accompanied by delicious ice soy milk. It is so delicious to eat.
But what they didn't know was that while everyone went to collect supplies, a small number did not go and secretly shifted their attention to other homes.
Among them is Tang Tian’s acquaintance - Tang Zirui!
It turned out that Tang Haifeng felt that someone must look after the house after he left, so he gave this task to him so that they wouldn't have to go out and get cold, and asked Lai Meiyan and Tang Nan to follow him.
Tang Zirui, who stayed in the room, was bored and his stomach was rumbling with hunger, so he tiptoed out of the house.
But he didn't know anyone in this building, so he went straight to 1701.
He leaned his whole body against the door, even sniffing through the crack, and sure enough, he smelled a faint fragrance, which made his stomach burn with hunger like fire.
He knew they were enjoying a good life at home! Tang Zirui bit his lip and thought indignantly.
But before he could sniff the smell a little longer to satisfy his craving, Tan Tan in the house spotted a stranger and started yelling towards the door, scaring him so much that he quickly ran away.
Tang Tian stroked her charcoal and turned on the surveillance camera. Seeing this abstract image, she shook her head.
Forget it, even if I’m discovered, I still have to eat the hot pot.
Anyone who dares to come to her door will be like a suicide truck, and she will just deal with it...
