Ice Age Apocalypse: I've Stockpiled Billions of Resources
Chapter 88 The Real Apocalypse
On the surface, Shan Mingliang is a well-known entrepreneur in Jinghai City who frequently participates in charitable activities.
Under the guise of private matters, Mingliang does many shady things, some of which even involve human lives.
If you work as a nanny in a family, you'll inevitably hear about certain things.
Shan Mingliang is a suspicious and cautious person who doesn't trust the people around him very much.
Not to mention nannies like Huang Xiaocui who get paid to do chores, Shan Mingliang was afraid that Huang Xiaocui would report them.
His years of hard work could very well be ruined by a nobody.
Huang Xiaocui's predecessors, the nannies, almost always fed Shan Mingliang fish.
Although Huang Xiaocui longed to go home and reunite with her family, she couldn't go back.
Even Huang Xiaocui's phone was being monitored; if she said anything inappropriate, she might be forced to eat fish.
At this moment, Shan Mingliang said he would give her fish to eat, and Huang Xiaocui was immediately frightened and turned pale.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me to bed."
Dan Mingliang roared angrily.
"Ok."
Huang Xiaocui dared not delay and quickly helped Shan Mingliang onto the bed.
She quickly took out the first-aid kit and used it to stop the bleeding of Shan Mingliang.
After doing all this, Huang Xiaocui stood aside to be judged.
"Get out of here! Seeing you makes me irritable. If it weren't for the special circumstances, I would definitely make you eat fish like your aunt."
Dan Mingliang was so angry that he lost his mind and started talking without thinking.
"Master, you should rest."
Huang Xiaocui quickly left the room.
"It hurts to death!"
Dan Mingliang covered his chin with his hand, feeling intense pain in his mouth.
"It's all Lin Luo's fault. I will take my revenge on you one day. But killing you is too easy for you. I will torture you for three days and three nights before I can vent my anger."
Shan Mingliang ignored Huang Xiaocui and focused his anger on Lin Luo.
He believes that his misfortune today is all Lin Luo's fault.
However, it won't be long before Shan Mingliang blames Lin Luo for his death.
At that time, he had no desire for revenge, only the thought of dying in humiliation.
Huang Xiaocui was busy until four o'clock, when the Shan family fell asleep, and only then could she lie down in bed.
After a busy day, Huang Xiaocui was paralyzed and lay on the bed, unable to move.
Huang Xiaocui felt very unhappy when she thought about how she had worked herself to the bone and was still threatened by Shan Mingliang to eat fish.
But she had no choice; Shan Mingliang was a big shot.
He was just a nobody, and it would be too easy for Shan Mingliang to kill him.
"I hope the Ice Age ends soon so that the whole family can go back to work and I won't have to work so hard," Huang Xiaocui comforted herself.
Aside from not being able to leave the Shan family, she's doing quite well.
The salary is high, the work is light, and the house is huge.
Often, when the Shan family members are not home, Huang Xiaocui is the true owner of this place.
Huang Xiaocui hopes the Ice Age will end soon so that the house can be returned to her.
She soon discovered that the Ice Age would never end, and that she would become increasingly tired and have less and less food to eat.
Huang Xiaocui has to do even more work every day, and she can't even make ends meet.
...
The sound of ocean waves filled the huge room, making it feel as if you were right next to the sea.
"I slept so well."
Lin Luo stretched and got out of bed.
He opened the electric curtains and saw the white world outside.
Lin Luo took out his phone and checked the weather; the outside temperature had dropped to minus one hundred degrees Celsius.
The true end of the Ice Age has arrived; it's no longer just a minor skirmish.
The lower the temperature, the more resources are needed to keep warm.
Soon, the entire city of Jinghai, and even the whole world, will face an energy crisis.
The weather is too cold, and resources in many places cannot be extracted.
The world's remaining resources are limited, and the time to sustain this effort will be very short.
The first challenge facing Jinghai City, and indeed the entire world, is power outages.
In modern civilized society, people cannot live without electricity.
A power outage is fatal for anyone.
Lin Luo opened the short video app, and the first video that popped up was an old video.
The old video was based on expert predictions, stating that the Ice Age apocalypse would only last seven days, and that people should not panic.
Lin Luo opened the comments section, where many people were criticizing the experts.
"These damn experts, didn't they say the Ice Age would only last seven days? It's already the eighth day, how come they're still saying it's the Ice Age?"
"I'm starving. I trusted the experts and only prepared seven days' worth of food. Seven days have passed, and I have no food left."
“My wife bought five days' worth of food earlier, and I scolded her severely. She only bought seven days' worth of food, and now our family of four has nothing to eat. This morning, my wife and I had a fight.”
"Those experts gave me your home address. I'll bring some local specialties to thank you properly."
“If I hadn’t trusted the experts, there would definitely be more food at home, and we would have had nothing to eat at noon. It’s because I trusted you that we had nothing to eat, and you have to take responsibility.”
...
Lin Luo had seen this short video before; everyone had previously said to trust the experts.
Especially on the fifth day, when the sun came out, the weather began to warm up.
Everyone believed the experts, who said the glacial apocalypse would end in seven days.
Today is the eighth day. The Ice Age has not ended; in fact, the weather has gotten even colder.
Unlike the others, Lin Luo showed no sign of panic.
His strange space contains hundreds of billions of resources, so he has no worries about food and resources.
Lin Luo clicked on the next video, which was posted in the first ten minutes.
A presenter with a decent appearance was speaking rapidly when he finished a sentence.
[Dear residents of Jinghai, please do not panic. The so-called glacial apocalypse is only temporary. A very authoritative expert said that the glacial apocalypse will last for another seven days. After the next seven days, I believe the glacial apocalypse will definitely end.]
"Seven days after seven days, that was the beginning. The first seven days had food and water, so we were able to get through them smoothly, but how would we get through the next seven days?"
"Go to hell, expert. If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't be facing starvation right now. Unless you give me food now, I won't believe you."
"Even if the Ice Age only lasts seven days, I think I probably won't survive it. The temperature dropped sharply last night, and I didn't cover myself properly with the blanket. I caught a cold, have a fever, and a cough. I don't have any cold medicine at home."
"Me too. This morning I felt like I had no energy at all. Even taking cold medicine didn't help. I couldn't survive even with food."
...
People have lost faith in the experts, and almost no one in the comments section believes them.
Many people are criticizing the experts and hoping they will be held accountable.
Lin Luo thought these people were too naive; the experts themselves were barely able to protect themselves, so why would they care about you?
We are all adults and should be responsible for the choices we make.
