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

After taking a shower, I blew my hair and put on my clothes. I felt like I had lost ten pounds. After I got ready, I took out the hair dryer to dry Huahua and Dahei's hair. Otherwise, they would catch a cold in this weather. Huahua even squinted her eyes while the hair was being dried. She enjoyed it so much. After I was done, I packed up and went back to the bedroom to sleep. It was her turn to be on duty tomorrow.

The next morning Jiang Yue got up early, had breakfast, changed into full gear and waited for someone to pick her up. Soon the person arrived and Jiang Yue got on the car and set off. She went to the station and said hello to everyone, got a cup of hot water and started her shift. There was nothing to do the whole morning. At noon, she went to the cafeteria with everyone to have a meal. The food was not bad today, with some meat slices.

Then another afternoon passed. Although it was cold now, there was not much to do. Unless it was necessary, everyone stayed at home. No one went out to play when the temperature was minus 40 or 50 degrees Celsius. When the successors came, the institute sent them home. Jiang Yue was not idle after arriving home. He took out some plastic bags and vacuum machines from the space some time ago. Jiang Yue made some rice, flour, meat and vegetables in the space into ready-made meals and packed them. It would be convenient to eat them in the future, and it would also free up some space to put things from outside in the space.

Although everything in the space is useful, there are priorities. Survival is more important at the moment. It has been almost a year, and many things in the warehouse are about to expire. Jiang Yue has no choice but to take out some entertainment equipment, every bit of space counts. Jiang Yue also scanned the original paper books into the computer. After a series of operations, he finally put all the expiring foods into the space.

Looking at the grain and food piled up in the warehouse, Jiang Yue had bought the food at the beginning which was sealed well. There was no need to worry about it as it could be stored for many years. Later, the food sent by the army was all bagged, which could not be stored for long. It seemed that he had to go to the market to find a solution. He found someone selling canned food some time ago. He decided to see if he could exchange the grain for some canned food, which could also be stored for a longer time.

After returning home, Jiang Yue took out her phone, opened WeChat and found a group. This group only consisted of Jiang Yue and two neighbors. She first asked them if they needed food: "Wheat, red dates, and various snacks. I only want to exchange them, not sell them. Does anyone need any?"

After a while, someone replied in the group: "Xiao Jiang, what are you changing for?"

"Change to canned food. Meat and fruit are fine. They are easy to preserve."

"When is the wheat from? It's not Chen Liang or moldy, right?"

"We support the inspection of the new grain that was just harvested this year. We will only trade it after confirming that there are no problems."

The messages in the group stopped for a while, probably because the other party was thinking. After a while, both of them popped up and wanted to exchange some things. They wanted to trade canned meat. They were reluctant to sell canned fruit. They took some photos of canned food for Jiang Yue. Most of them were canned luncheon meat. Jiang Yue asked about the shelf life and found out that they were all five to ten years. Because the price of canned wheat is basically fixed now, they agreed on the exchange quantity and the transaction was finalized.

They also bought all the red dates and snacks. They had a friend who was an intermediary for the snacks and red dates. He helped them to make a connection. A family wanted to exchange bacon, and Jiang Yue asked if there was any problem with the bacon. The two of them also guaranteed that they had run such a factory before. After their doubts were dispelled, the deal was finalized.

After setting a date, Jiang Yue loaded the food and snacks onto the truck, warmed up the truck and then set off. Jiang Yue had a car and lived nearby, so he delivered the goods directly to the door. After arriving there, Jiang Yue honked the horn and the door opened soon. Seeing the door open, Jiang Yue drove directly to their warehouse, saving the need to move the car.

"Xiao Jiang, can you drive a truck?" Old Liu asked curiously.

"Haha, let alone cars, even trains will do." Jiang Yue laughed and said, "How have you been recently? I see you've lost a lot of weight." Jiang Yue glanced at Lao Liu and said.

"Ah~, life is hard. It's so cold that we don't even want to go out. We have no energy at all every day."

Jiang Yue bent down and touched the head of Lao Liu's son, then took out a box of chocolates from her pocket and handed it to him: "Here, sister will give it to you."

The child accepted it with embarrassment after seeing Lao Liu nod. It was just a box of chocolates. Although it was considered precious now, no one present needed it and didn't care much. Lao Liu took out a pack of cigarettes and looked at Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue waved her hand and said, "I don't smoke. You can smoke by yourself."

Old Liu lit a cigarette and started chatting with Jiang Yue. The kid was too cold to bear it and went back inside. After chatting for a while, a man came out of the room. When he came over, Old Liu smiled and said, "Xiao Jiang, let's take a look at the goods. I don't understand, let him take a look."

"No problem, anyone can take a look." After saying that, Jiang Yue opened the door of the truck and motioned for him to go up and take a look. The man went into the truck very quickly, picked out two bags at random, opened them and took a look. After finding that there was no problem, he nodded to Lao Liu, and the three of them began to unload the goods. Jiang Yue didn't care how the three parties divided the goods. She was only responsible for unloading the goods to Lao Liu's house.

After unloading the goods, Lao Liu directed Jiang Yue to park the car in front of a small warehouse. After Jiang Yue got off the car, Lao Liu opened the warehouse door and saw a warehouse full of cans. There was bacon hanging on the beams, some sealed and some exposed. Lao Liu asked Jiang Yue to take a few cans to inspect the goods. Jiang Yue took a look around and picked up a few at random. She first checked the production date and the outer packaging and found no problems. She opened one and tasted it and found no peculiar smell. Jiang Yue also bought this brand of canned food and it was no different from the ones she bought.

Jiang Yue selected a few familiar brands, confirmed the quantity and loaded them onto the truck. The two people next to him also helped. Soon all the cans were loaded. Jiang Yue counted the quantity and found it was correct, so he said to Lao Liu, "I think the quantity is correct. Do you want to count it?"

"Haha, I remembered it when I moved it. It's no problem. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would be worried." This is not the time to be generous. Everyone has to count clearly. After moving the cans, they went to choose bacon. After choosing some bacon, today's transaction was completed. After that, Lao Liu invited Jiang Yue to his home for a visit, but Jiang Yue refused. They usually chatted in the group, so it would not be bothering. Seeing Jiang Yue say this, Lao Liu did not force her and sent Jiang Yue out.

After returning home, Jiang Yue put the canned food in the warehouse. After thinking about it, he took out some of the drinks and alcohol in the space and put the bacon in the freed up space. It was okay to not drink the drinks, but it was not okay to not have meat.

After returning to the house, I counted the supplies in the space so I had a rough idea of ​​what was going on. There weren't many snacks left, and I had counted the remaining boxes of Jiang Yue. I estimated that I could finish them before they expired. It would be great if the space was a little bigger. Now it felt like it wasn't enough. Unfortunately, I didn't know how long it would take for the space to be expanded next time.
