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

Chapter 92: A Passerby in the Apocalypse 11

Jiang Yue lived very comfortably during the past half month. She even visited Lao Liu's home. Lao Liu prepared a table full of dishes for Jiang Yue to eat. Lao Liu's son also came out of his shadow and became cheerful again during the past half month. Half a month later, the institute organized a talk with her and rewarded her with some things. Originally, she was going to be offered a regular job, but some people thought that she was too harsh, so the regular job was aborted.

Jiang Yue was upset. She really thought she loved this job. Lin Xiao also received good news. The next day at work, Jiang Yue submitted her resignation application. Director Su talked to Jiang Yue and thought that Jiang Yue was dissatisfied with the result. Jiang Yue showed him the chat records and said, "Director Su, I have wanted to change jobs for a long time. This place is too busy and not suitable for me. I would leave even if this happened."

Although Director Su was a little bit skeptical of this reason, Jiang Yue had already made up her mind, so he could only approve it. After that, Jiang Yue started to pack up her things. A few days later, someone came to replace Jiang Yue's position, and no one knew what kind of relationship that person had.

The colleagues in the bureau also looked like they were about to be killed. They all thought that this incident had implicated Jiang Yue. Was it wrong to protect the people? If we didn't fight back when we encountered a gunman, should we just run away when we saw the gangster?

Jiang Yue explained to them, but no one believed her. They all believed what they saw and thought Jiang Yue was threatened. Jiang Yue had no choice but to stop trying to persuade them.

After waving goodbye to her colleagues, Jiang Yue packed up her things and left happily.

The next morning, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to report for work happily. Lin Xiao helped her get familiar with the work, and the two spent the whole day talking and laughing, eating melon seeds, and gossiping. It was such a great day!

A few days later, Lao Liu heard about this incident. He was so upset that he thought he had implicated Jiang Yue and wanted to get an explanation from Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue explained to Lao Liu for a long time, and Lao Liu was finally relieved after he repeatedly assured her that it was voluntary. Finally, he gave Jiang Yue two big hams. Jiang Yue wanted to refuse but couldn't. Jiang Yue wanted to exchange something with him, but he refused and just put down the thing and ran away.

Just like that, a month passed by while I was slacking off every day, and February came quietly.

The weather is getting warmer, with the temperature hovering around 10°C every day. Many people are excited, but some sensitive people have noticed that something is wrong with the temperature, as it is rising too fast!

At this time, the official new civil defense project was also completed. It is located deep underground and has the highest earthquake resistance level. It would have been best to build it after the earthquake, but it was too late. If it is built now, people can hide in it when the extreme heat comes.

Many farms have also started growing potatoes. Potatoes are the hardiest staple food and if you plant them now you can probably harvest a crop.

Jiang Yue reclaimed the land in his yard and planted potatoes and some vegetables. However, even though the land was planted, watering was still a problem. He heard that he could buy water directly, but he had to exchange it for grain, so he didn't know whether it was true or not.

By March, the temperature was around 20 degrees. Jiang Yue also cleaned up the yard this month. At the end of the month, Jiang Yue put away all the fragile and damaged items. By April, the temperature had reached over 30 to 40 degrees.

One night, the earthquake alarm sounded, and Jiang Yue quickly got up and went to the yard, bringing out Huahua and Dahei. Jiang Yue had already put them in cages, but it was too late to prepare for the earthquake.

After going to the yard, Jiang Yue set up a tent. To be honest, the shaking was quite strong. The earthquakes continued throughout the night. He didn't have to go to work early the next morning, which was much more relaxing than working in the station, otherwise he would be very busy.

The notice was only issued at noon. There were dozens of earthquakes, large and small, with the largest one currently counted at 8.7. The good thing is that the country had foresight and avoided many places.

But there are always some things that are unavoidable. The world plot sent to them is only a rough outline, and the rest are actively avoided by relevant scholars who have studied them.

The earthquake lasted intermittently for half a month. The biggest loss was in water sources. Water was cut off in many places, and some water sources were directly polluted. Although the extra water cannot completely make up for the loss, the daily water delivery time has been shortened a lot. In some areas, soldiers drive water trucks to deliver water. There is no water at all in the local area.

The lack of water resources is a big problem. The precipitation will be further reduced during extreme cold and heat. Now we rely entirely on seawater purification, and the water delivered is bottled purified water.

The supply and marketing cooperative where Jiang Yue works has also stocked the water, but it can only be purchased with an ID card, and a family can only buy one barrel as emergency water when a disaster strikes and there is no time for rescue. It is also stipulated that further purchases must have a legitimate reason, otherwise they cannot be made.

One wave has not yet subsided when another wave comes. The tsunami came before the earthquake completely stopped. The good thing is that the country has relocated all the people long ago, and there is no other loss except the economic loss, and the economic loss has been reduced to the lowest level.

There are some stubborn people abroad, and no one knows how many of them have died in this wave. There are always people who don't believe it. The country has explained it many times, but some people still think we are plotting something and just don't believe it. Some people even go to live on the top of mountains and by the sea. They are really asking for death and even gods can't save them.

After the tsunami, the supply and marketing cooperatives had a lot more dried seafood and various dried fish were also available. For a long time, there was no limit on the purchase, and no one knew how many fish were washed up.

This month Jiang Yue also harvested all the potatoes in the field. Although they have not yet grown to their full size, they have no room to grow anymore as the temperature has reached 50 degrees. She harvested the potatoes and put them in the cellar. Now it is basically impossible to replace them with canned food or other foods. For a long time, potatoes have been the staple food for Jiang Yue and the cats and dogs.

After putting the potatoes away, I went to the ice cellar and saw that the ice had shown signs of melting, so I could take it out and use it. I had stored a lot of it over the winter, and it would have been wasted if I couldn't use it all. I took photos and sent them to a few friends, asking them if they wanted some.

Lin Xiao and Zhou Xue responded immediately, and soon Director Su and Lao Liu also replied. Jiang Yue asked them to come and get it themselves, and they all came soon, bringing some small gifts for Jiang Yue, such as dried potatoes and sweet potatoes.

After giving some away, Jiang Yue looked at the rest and found that she still couldn't use it all, so she sent a message to Lao Liu to see if she could find someone to buy it. She explained in advance that snow water was not purified water. Lao Liu agreed and Jiang Yue didn't care anymore.

Unexpectedly, I found someone to buy it in the evening, and I bought it directly with gold. The price was not low. Although gold is not as precious as before, it is still quite useful.

Jiang Yue asked if there was anything that could be exchanged. Lao Liu gave her a list and told her not to choose food because the quality could not be guaranteed. In the end, Jiang Yue chose gold.

The next day, Lao Liu drove over in a refrigerated truck. The three of them moved all the ice cubes in. After they were done, Jiang Yue asked, "Why would anyone pay such a high price for this?"

"Hehe, I have a friend who does business with foreigners. We don't like this kind of water now, but many people can't afford to drink it. They have money, so they charge a lot of money."
