Quick Wear: Passerby A's Daily Life of Eating Watermelons

In the following days, Jiang Yue drove the tram to and from get off work. She was busy like a dog every day. She didn't encounter any difficult tasks at work, but they were very tedious and repetitive. The good thing was that Jiang Yue was much more patient now. Brother Wang praised Jiang Yue for this several times. Sometimes when he met those unreasonable people, he would be so angry, but Jiang Yue could still explain to them with a smile.

Jiang Yue and his team are not the busiest. The busiest ones are those who go out on patrol and mediate disputes. They are so busy that they can't even get up and down every day. They don't even have time to rest or eat. When they compare, they feel much better. They had lunch at the station at noon. The food is limited now. It's good to have a meat dish today, which is basically cabbage and potatoes.

After finishing the meal and returning to the office, Lin Xiao mentioned the idea of ​​treating everyone: "Xiao Yue, all new colleagues have to treat everyone to a meal when they receive their salaries. When will you treat everyone to a meal today?"

Jiang Yue thought for a while and suggested: "You can't eat anything good if you go out to eat now. It might be the same as the cafeteria, or even worse. How about this, I'll bring some snacks tomorrow and use snacks instead of treating you?" The three people in the office all agreed. After all, this was the current situation. Eating out was not as good as snacks.

So the matter was decided, and after a short break, we got busy again, and it was time to get off work in the blink of an eye.

The first thing he did after returning home was to charge the car. Jiang Yue put the things in his hands into the house. After dinner, he went to the warehouse, found some snacks and packed a few gift bags, and then added some cigarettes and alcohol. Of course, the director's portion must be much richer than others.

The next day, Jiang Yue drove his new car to the office with a big gift package. Because Jiang Yue arrived at the company half an hour early, he parked the car and gave one gift package to the gatekeeper first. The gatekeeper promised to call him at any time to reserve a parking space for him. Then he brought the other gift packages to the office.

When she just entered, Brother Wang had already arrived. Jiang Yue quickly asked Brother Wang for help. The two of them went back and forth several times before they got it done. Jiang Yue picked up one and gave it to Brother Wang, who gave her a big smile. Then Jiang Yue picked up a few gift packages and gave them to the people who had helped her before. After she gave them away, everyone had started to work, so she just made up for the time difference.

Five minutes before work, Lin Xiao and Zhou Xue also arrived at the office. Lin Xiao saw the gift package on the table, opened it and asked Jiang Yue: "Xiao Yue, did you bring all this?"

Jiang Yue nodded: "One for each person, there are some snacks, cigarettes and alcohol in it, and you two have an extra batch of cosmetics, don't tell anyone."

"Isn't this too expensive? It must have cost a lot of money?" So many snacks are enough to last him for a long time. Given the current situation, these things are much more expensive than a meal.

Jiang Yue shook her head and said modestly, "Not much. I opened a small farm before and was planning to open a convenience store. But the farm was gone and everyone was laid off. I still have some snacks left, so I divided them among everyone."

"I was wondering, so many snacks are now nowhere to be bought. When can I buy whatever I want like before?" Lin Xiao sighed.

Jiang Yue looked at Lin Xiao and sighed. This was just the beginning. The hard days were still to come. However, it was still much better than the original world's plot. At least now, even though you have to suffer, you can live with dignity.

The three of them talked for a while before Director Su came over and asked Jiang Yue how she felt about her work during this period. Jiang Yue said that everything was fine and suitable for her. Then she gave the gift bag to Director Su: "Director Su, everyone has one. They are all snacks, not expensive things."

Director Su looked at the other three people in the office, and when he saw everyone nodded, he said, "Okay, I'll accept it, but you'd better be more low-key in the future. It will not be good if others see it." After Director Su returned to the office, he asked Jiang Yue on WeChat. Jiang Yue told him who the gift was given to. Director Su told her to be more low-key next time. If this happened, the whole institute would probably know about it, and the news would spread quickly, which would have a bad impact.

Jiang Yue replied to Director Su and said that she would remember not to do it that way next time. Jiang Yue knew what Director Su was worried about, but Jiang Yue didn't care. She didn't plan to work in the station for a long time. The main reason was that the situation had not stabilized yet, and Jiang Yue just planned to stay here for a while. Although the situation was different now and contract workers had a chance to become regular police officers, Jiang Yue would not humble herself and make herself unhappy just for a job.

After this incident, Jiang Yue became a little famous. Although not to the point where everyone knows her, some people came to ask if they could use points to buy some. Jiang Yue also explained that they were all in stock and were sold out. After she rejected some people, no one came to harass her anymore.

Time passed slowly, and it was already October in a blink of an eye. The weather had been very cold since October, almost the same as December in previous years. The prices of water, electricity and gas had also increased across the board, and the increases were quite alarming.

Among them, the price of tap water has increased the most. The original tiered charges were cancelled and replaced by a unified price, from about 2 yuan at the beginning to 5 yuan or 10 yuan per ton. Then this month, the water fee is 100 yuan per ton. In addition to the water price, the electricity price has also increased sharply. Jiang Yue's family has charged 5 yuan per kilowatt-hour. According to this price, a normal household consumes about 300 kilowatt-hours of electricity per month, so the electricity bill will cost 1500 yuan per month.

This does not include the heating bill. In areas with central heating, it's still okay, but people like Jiang Yue who live in a single-family house have to spend their own money to buy coal and materials. The good thing is that Jiang Yue has stockpiled a lot. There are two large piles of coal and a lot of wood under the wall, as well as gasoline and diesel. Jiang Yue will definitely have no problem heating himself in extremely cold weather, and he may not use up all the materials.

Fortunately, Jiang Yue built the wall high enough so that the situation inside could not be seen from the outside. Otherwise, if someone saw it, someone might come to cause trouble. After getting off work, Jiang Yue tidied up the things in the yard. It looked like a sandstorm was going to come. When he came back today, the sky was full of yellow sand. The weather on his cell phone also pushed a notification that a large sandstorm might be coming, so everyone should be prepared.

Jiang Yue packed up all the things in the yard and put them into the garage. The garage was built quite large at that time to prevent such a situation. Jiang Yue's garage was designed to be earthquake-proof and was built of reinforced concrete. If the house collapsed, he could move in and live here. After cleaning up the yard, he went into the house, closed the doors and windows, took out a hot pot base and ingredients from the space, took out a tablet, found a TV series, and started eating.
