I survived with my sister in the doomsday

My grandfather and I researched the distance from our city to Tarim, which is more than 4,500 kilometers. Even before the earthquake, it would take at least three full days to drive there, and that was on the highway!

Generally, such a long distance requires taking a plane to Kashgar and then transferring to other means of transportation to Tarim.

How can we drive to cities after the disaster when we don’t even know if they are connected? Let alone trains and trains. It will take years to repair these infrastructures! As for aviation, I am not sure if we can open routes without satellite signals and communication systems.

Suddenly I remembered that Chu Fangjun was also going abroad to find her parents, so did he have any method? I immediately asked him.

At this time, my two sisters and Chu Yuan were also looking at Chu Fangjun intently, waiting for his answer.

Chu Fangjun glanced at us and answered thoughtfully: In the past, there were already airplanes and flight routes, including sea routes, without satellites. It was not until modern times that satellite navigation was introduced, so it was not difficult to restore air routes using the old method. All we had to do was build a parking area on the ground. However, in that era, in addition to the pilot's memory of the map route and flying skills, we also needed a wireless point transmitter at the receiving point to locate and guide the plane to land safely. Because the earthquake caused changes in the earth's magnetic field, which seriously affected the propagation of radio, without radio navigation, it would be very risky for the plane to stop at the airport! This is definitely not possible.

The earth's magnetic field needs to slowly adjust and recover on its own. Our human power is very small in front of the earth. Can you imagine what technological power can affect the entire earth's magnetic field? We can't, we are powerless and can only wait!

What he said made me even more discouraged. It seemed that the future was bleak. Would it be possible that we would never see our mother again?

Suddenly he changed the subject and continued, "But I heard from the senior leaders of the bureau that the country is researching communication tools under the current magnetic field. Maybe in a while they will be able to develop a communication system that is not affected by chaotic magnetic fields."

This sentence seemed to bring us hope again. I asked him if he also planned to go abroad after the magnetic field was restored?

Chu Fangjun replied, yes, or they would have to dispatch helicopters, but now the unstable magnetic field is only a small factor. Roads in many areas of the country are blocked and closed, and there may be riots. War is imminent, and society is no longer harmonious and stable. It is said that many large chemical plants exploded and collapsed during the earthquake, and a lot of unidentified gases leaked out. The country’s nuclear reactors also had some problems... Although this period seems to be quite harmonious and quiet on the surface, no one knows what the future will be like. This is the most terrifying thing about traveling.

Our government is now trying its best to recover the losses caused by the earthquake. Alas, so we still have to wait!

Chu Yuan asked us what we were going to do next and where we were going to live. If possible, she invited us to stay at her house, as her house was big and it wouldn't hurt for a few of us to live there.

Chu Yuan has the naive thoughts of a child.

I thought about the conversation between Chu Fangjun and his woman that I overheard last night. Even the most shameless person would not stay in someone else's house, right?

I discussed these things with my grandfather in the morning. Every day before I updated my space, I would transfer the cigarettes in my space to my grandfather's space to accumulate them. I originally planned to find an opportunity to sell them in this most prosperous base. When we went out to do business, we saw that several large shopping malls were not closed like Shengbin Base, but were still in full operation. I thought of a way to sell them to the shopping malls there, and I would definitely make a lot of money! As for where to live, I thought that no matter where I choose to live, I have to return Xiaobai's car to him first!

As for this side, we definitely can't stay there for so long, that would be too rude.

I turned to face Chu Fangjun and thanked him sincerely, "Mr. Chu, thank you for your hospitality last night and for taking the trouble to help me find out my mother's whereabouts today. I will keep these things in mind. If you need my help in the future, just give me a call and I, Huo Fei, will do my best to repay you."

Chu Fangjun smiled and said, "What can I do that I need your help with?" He said it calmly. Maybe it was because I was a little sensitive. I felt that he just didn't think highly of me. Come to think of it, he is a big boss and a social elite. I am just a nobody. It's a bit pretentious to talk to him about these things. Whatever, the friendship between gentlemen is as plain as water.

After chatting for a while, it was already afternoon. I was ready to leave with my grandfather and my little sister Zhenzhu, but Chu Yuan was still holding Feicui in the yard, reluctant to leave. I felt helpless. What was wrong with Yuan Yuan's brain? She didn't look like someone who lacked love.

I yelled at Feicui, "If you don't leave now, you won't be able to go back today!"

Chu Yuan ran to his brother and said that he wanted to go with us, but was sternly stopped by his brother. Feicui gently told her that we might come to the Mid-Levels base for development in a while, and Chu Yuan immediately turned his worry into joy.

I also saw a look of ashamedness on Chu Fangjun's face. Fortunately, Feicui is a girl; if it was a boy, he would have beaten her up!

I finally breathed a sigh of relief after getting down the mountain. I have to admit that I felt frustrated and inferior in front of Chu Fangjun.

I first found a large shopping mall, and by asking the employees I found the department manager. His surname was Xiao, and he was not too old, probably in his thirties. I told him that my family used to run a supermarket, but the supermarket collapsed after the earthquake. However, I had a warehouse storing a batch of cigarettes. Fortunately, the cigarettes in the warehouse were not affected too much. Now I wanted to sell them and asked him if he wanted them.

Manager Xiao was very surprised and asked me if anyone still had stock. He seemed to be unconvinced. I took out a box of soft Zhonghua, tore open it, and handed him one.

He took the cigarette cautiously and took a puff. It was obvious that this guy was an old smoker. After just one puff, he was sure that it was a real cigarette.

I jokingly handed him a whole box of cigarettes, and said that if he was willing to accept my goods and the price was reasonable, these would not be a problem, and that long-term cooperation in the future would be possible. I also hinted to him that I had channels.

Manager Xiao was interested in going with me to inspect the goods. I said that we had to negotiate the price first, because I saw that they also sell cigarettes here, but the price is four times higher than before! For example, this box of soft Zhonghua was only more than 60 yuan before, but now it is sold for 240 yuan a box. I said that as long as it is % of their selling price, it will be fine.

Manager Xiao said that the price is negotiable, and if you can ensure that the cigarettes are genuine and come from a reliable source, he can definitely give me a satisfactory price.

I said it must have come from a clean source because this was my stock before the supermarket collapsed, and you can tell at a glance that the stock of ordinary supermarkets before the earthquake contained all kinds of cigarette brands.

At this time, I asked Feicui to bring several boxes of cigarettes of various brands packed in instant noodle boxes and let Manager Xiao check them one by one.

Considering whether they had so much cash, I didn't give them all the goods, but only took out a part of them, so I sold them for 300,000 yuan! I returned to the car and gave all the money to my grandfather for safekeeping.
