Reborn amidst natural disaster, my childhood sweetheart and dad help me stock up and win effortlessl

"Didi"

Jiang Li glanced down at her watch, then stood up.

"Zhou Tian and Shi Ming are here. They told us to go and distribute the meat."

Zhou Tian and Shi Ming, along with four soldiers, waited at Jiang Li's doorstep on a tricycle.

"This way."

Upon hearing the sound, everyone looked around in search of the source of the noise.

Fortunately, Shi Ming had sharp eyesight and could see Jiang Li thirty meters away even in the faint moonlight.

Zhou Tian stepped back a few steps and looked at the doorway.

Could it be that he mistook Jiang Li's house for someone else because it was dark?

Zhou Tian touched the back of his head, somewhat doubting his memory.

Before Zhou Tian had time to wonder, Shi Ming had already arrived at the door on his tricycle.

"We've brought you wild boar meat."

Jiang Li looked at the bags of wild boar meat and was somewhat shocked.

The wild boar meat was cut into pieces and vacuum-packed.

I never imagined that such high technology still exists today.

It's no wonder they're the military.

Zhou Tian laughed out loud when he saw Jiang Li's shocked expression:

"By chance, we dug a vacuum packaging machine out of the rubble."

In case you have too much meat to process in time, we'll vacuum pack it for you.

This will make it easier for you to handle later.

However, even vacuum-packed meat won't keep for long at this temperature; you'd better smoke it thoroughly.

Shi Ming and his soldiers were carrying meat with great gusto.

Qin Yu immediately stepped forward to stop him.

"No, don't move them all down."

Jiang Li's house is ahead.

Upon hearing this, Shi Ming and the soldiers stopped what they were doing and all looked at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu took a step back, feeling scrutinized. Had he said something wrong?

Shi Ming and the soldiers put the wild boar meat they had brought down back onto the tricycle.

Zhou Tian, ​​a man nearing forty, patted his chest imperceptibly.

He said he couldn't believe his memory was so bad.

It was all a misunderstanding.

Zhou Tian took out his notebook from his chest and began to reconcile accounts with Jiang Li.

"We'll buy the two little wild boars from you at 30 points per pound, and they weigh a total of 98 pounds."

I rounded it up for you, so it's 100 jin (50 catties), which is 300 points in total.

That sow weighed 450 jin (225 catties), and it was packaged in 15-jin bags. We took the rest, excluding your donation. Please check if this is correct.

Zhou Tian handed the notebook to Jiang Li so that she could have a clearer understanding of the accounts.

Jiang Li casually flipped through the notebook; the pages were slightly yellowed, and there were traces of tearing at the beginning.

The entire book was only a thin layer, and it was dug out of some ruins.

"No problem, I trust the authorities won't cheat us."

Zhou Tian took the notebook and then announced some bombshell news:

"The higher-ups are very grateful for your donation of wild boar meat."

We've decided to reward you; you can choose any item from the official store.

We'll deliver it to your door.

Jiang Li was stunned by this unexpected joy, which was no less exciting than someone with bad luck suddenly winning the lottery.

Is this the reward for doing good deeds?

She asked, "Is this free?"

Zhou Tian nodded affirmatively.

Is there a time limit?

Zhou Tian shook his head and said with a smile:

"No, you can ask us whenever you want."

Qin Yue looked at Jiang Li with envy; the official store had many good things.

She and her brother had been eyeing that solar panel for a long time, but they didn't have enough points to use it.

Qin Yue plans to find a job later to earn more points and try to accumulate enough points to buy solar panels as soon as possible.

After delivering the goods, Zhou Tian, ​​Shi Ming, and the others rode away on their tricycles.

Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo bid farewell to Qin Yu and his sister and returned to the villa.

After closing the door, Jiang Li put the wild boar meat on the ground into her spatial storage.

She looked at the crops in the front yard, which were her treasures.

Even with plastic film used to retain water in the front yard, the crops still drooped listlessly, showing no signs of life.

Jiang Li looked at the crops with heartache.

She'll get the sunshade up tonight.

The temperature will only rise further if we delay any longer.

At that time, it won't be suitable to go out, not even at night, let alone during the day.

Jiang Li also picked up the trees and bamboo that the wild boar had broken and put them into her spatial storage.

Thinking about it, I should thank the wild boar.

She obtained the materials for the sunshade without expending any effort.

Dead wild boar: Thank you so much for your gratitude and for our contribution.

Ye Jingmo took out a saw and trimmed the bottom of the trees and bamboo.

Jiang Li chose a suitable location to place the item and marked it with black paint.

Finally, she took out a shade net and tied it to the frame.

Together with Ye Jingmo, they set up the frame on the ground.

Jiang Li looked at the shade netting; the black fabric covered the entire front yard.

The moonlight couldn't penetrate, making the front yard even darker.

Jiang Li didn't care at all; on the contrary, she was filled with excitement.

This insulation prevents sunlight from directly hitting the land and pond during the day.

The crops won't droop, and the ponds won't need water after just one day.

Ye Jingmo looked at Jiang Li's flushed cheeks and the fine beads of sweat on her forehead, a look of heartache flashing in his eyes.

"You go back and rest first, I'll take care of the rest of the work."

Jiang Li wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve and shook her head unwillingly.

"How long are you going to keep doing this all by yourself?"

"I'm not tired, Brother Mo, don't worry about me."

Knowing Jiang Li's temperament, Ye Jingmo had no choice but to remain silent.

He picked up a spoon and watered the ground.

The sun is blazing these days, so the soil must be thoroughly watered, otherwise the crops will easily dry out and die.

Jiang Li squatted down and examined the leaves of the crop.

The edges of the leaves were sunburnt and curled up a bit, but thankfully no insects were found.

After inspecting the crops in the field, Jiang Li patted the dust off her hands.

Then they went to the pool and added some water.

The mosquito larvae in the pond have now been almost entirely eaten by the fish. In order for the fish to grow,

She took out the feed and sprinkled it into the water.

The feed floated on the surface of the water, and the fish hiding in the silt emerged and eagerly ate it.

Back inside, Pudding was lying in its doghouse, seemingly asleep.

Jelly was in the nest in the cage, its head facing inwards, with only its tail sticking out.

Hearing the noise, Pudding's ears twitched, and he opened one eye to peek.

Upon realizing it was Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo, they closed their eyes again.

Jiang Li didn't disturb Pudding and Jelly, and went straight to the chicken coop in front of the backyard.

She put new feed in the bowl and added water.

The chicks were in good spirits and all gathered around when they saw the feed being given out.

The arrogant chick stood right on top of the bowl, claiming a prime spot.

Ye Jingmo took the paper mat that had been used to catch chicken droppings from under the cage to the backyard to dry.

He swept the dried chicken droppings into a bag and put the cleaned paper mats back under the chicken coop.

After finishing the work on the chicken coop, Jiang Li rushed up to the third floor.

Despite its round belly, Little White still climbs nimbly in its cage, proving itself to be a true rock climbing expert.

Little Black was gnawing on a chew stick by the mouse bowl, making a "crunching" sound.

When they saw Jiang Li coming, they all gathered around the cage.

Jiang Li cleaned the cage, added fresh water and food, and then closed the cage to prevent them from escaping.

The tomatoes in the planting trough have delicate flower buds at the very top, and they should bloom soon.

Soon, the tomatoes will bear fruit, and the potatoes from the same batch will be ready to ripen. This is truly something to celebrate.

Jiang Li perked up and happily watered the planting trough.

The newly planted bok choy grew lush and green, its leaves spreading outwards like the skirts of a dancer.

She looked around the planting troughs and found no signs of pests, unlike the crops in the front yard.

She had been worried about the pests in the front yard spreading to the planters inside the house, but it seems there are no problems now.

Jiang Li closed the door on the third floor and heard a sound coming from the study as she walked down to the second floor.

What has Brother Mo been doing lately? He's been so secretive.

However, since Ye Jingmo didn't expect her to know, Jiang Li didn't bother to investigate.

She went downstairs and took out the projector from the room.

She had slept too much before, so she was full of energy and not sleepy at all.

Following the instructions, Jiang Li assembled the projector and projected it onto the wall.

Jiang Li chose a horror movie and took out some snacks.

This kind of atmosphere is perfect for watching horror movies.

She turned off the living room lights, and the screen was clear and bright, in no way inferior to the professional setup of a movie theater.

Jiang Li nestled into the soft sofa, listening to the eerie and terrifying sounds coming from the stereo.

She had a chicken foot dangling from her mouth, staring intently at the scene unfolding on the screen.

"looking at what?"

The sudden noise startled Jiang Li so much that she almost dropped the chicken foot she was eating.

Jiang Li turned to look at Ye Jingmo at the top of the stairs and quickly patted her chest.

Who understands the feeling of hearing sounds at the end of a horror movie?

"Hmm... Cobb tablets..."

Jiang Li, with a chicken foot in his mouth, spoke unclearly.

Ye Jingmo sat down next to Jiang Li and watched a horror movie with her.

Jiang Li shared some snacks with him.

Ye Jingmo ate a couple of bites as a token gesture and then stopped.

Overall, the horror movie was pretty good, with both scary scenes and touching moments that brought tears to my eyes.

After tidying up the projector, Jiang Li took a shower in the bathroom and then climbed into bed.

Jiang Li thought it would take a long time to fall asleep after getting into bed, but she drifted off to sleep in a daze.

It's so hot.

Jiang Li kicked off the thin blanket covering her uncomfortably and tossed and turned in bed.

Sunlight streamed into the room through the thick curtains.

Jiang Li sat up blankly. Only then did she realize that she was covered in a thin layer of sweat, which felt sticky and uncomfortable.

Has the temperature risen again?

She looked up at her watch, which displayed a warning for extremely high temperatures.

Officials emphasized that people should stay indoors, as going out in such scorching sun for less than ten minutes can cause heatstroke and collapse.

Jiang Li had no choice but to wash up and wipe her body to avoid feeling sticky and uncomfortable from being all sweaty.

When she came out, Ye Jingmo had just finished making breakfast.

"What are you having for breakfast this morning?"

Jiang Li pulled out a chair and sat down, looking at Ye Jingmo with anticipation.

"Mung bean soup."

Ye Jingmo placed two bowls of mung beans on the dining table. Jiang Li stirred them with a spoon. In addition to mung beans, there were also Job's tears, sago pearls, and lotus seeds.

This bowl of soup is a great tool for cooling down and reducing internal heat.

After drinking it, the internal heat that had risen due to the hot weather was suppressed.

Jiang Li comfortably put down the empty bowl in her hand and wiped the soup from the corner of her mouth with a tissue.

She walked to the window, pulled back the curtains, and could feel the intense heat even through the glass; the sunlight felt like needles pricking her skin.

Jiang Li looked at the thermometer outside, and the temperature was heading straight for eighty degrees Celsius.

The temperature today is ridiculously high.

Jiang Li drew the curtains and looked at her arm, which had just been exposed to the light; a large patch of skin was clearly red.

She touched it with her finger and felt a stinging sensation.

This is outrageous! I got sunburned just from the sunlight shining through the glass.

If you walk around outside without any protection, you'll be skinned alive.

A hand with distinct knuckles hooked up and tapped her on the forehead.

"How can you be so reckless? You don't take care of your body at all."

When Ye Jingmo came out of the kitchen, he saw Jiang Li staring at the redness and swelling on her skin.

The red skin against the snow-white skin was particularly striking, causing Ye Jingmo's eyes to darken.

He gently applied a layer of burn ointment.

The cool, comfortable sensation made Jiang Li squint her eyes.

suddenly,

Jiang Li sniffed and noticed a burnt smell in the air.

She asked uncertainly, "Brother Mo, can you smell something burning?"

Did you leave the stove on while cooking, or is there a fire somewhere in our house?

"I'm sure I turned off the stove in the kitchen."

Ye Jingmo answered affirmatively.

Could it be that something in the house really caught fire?

Jiang Li hurriedly went upstairs to check everything, making sure that every corner was thoroughly inspected.

After searching the house, no fire was found anywhere inside.

strange?

Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo exchanged a glance and simultaneously thought of a possibility.

No way, no way.

Could it be that there's a fire on the mountain?

That would be a big problem.

Ye Jingmo carefully opened the back door a crack, and a burnt smell wafted out.

The heat wave swept into the house, dispelling all the coolness inside.

The chicks in the coop were jumping around uncomfortably, and sparse feathers fell onto the paper mat.

Jiang Li looked at the fiery red sky behind the mountain and her heart sank; the mountain was really on fire.

"Brother Mo, will this fire spread to our side?"

Jiang Li's face was bitter as she asked with concern.

Water resources are now in severe shortage, and there is no water available to fight the fire.

Moreover, with the sun so intense, wearing light clothing will result in sunburn, while wearing heavy clothing will immediately lead to heatstroke.

Ye Jingmo's eyes were filled with seriousness; the wildfire was spreading very quickly.

The current hot and dry environment will only accelerate the spread of wildfires.

Jiang Li didn't want to move out of the villa at all.

This place was carefully arranged by her and Ye Jingmo, and they put a lot of effort into it.

The sound of a sharp blade slicing through the sky echoed through the air.

Jiang Li drew back the curtains and saw two fighter jets flying overhead, dropping fire extinguishing bombs onto the mountain.

White powder exploded on the hilltop, and smoke filled the air.

From a distance, it looks like a beautiful fairyland.

Jiang Li prayed silently in her heart that the fire must be extinguished.

The soldiers were urgently assembled and rushed to Wufeng Mountain with shovels and hoes.

Zhou Tian learned of the wildfire at Wufeng Mountain and has already arranged for fighter jets to drop fire extinguishing bombs.

However, due to the wide extent of the wildfire, the fire has shrunk but has not been extinguished.

Soldiers need to immediately go up the mountain to dig firebreaks to prevent the wildfire from spreading further and causing disaster to the people below.

Officials urgently dispatched water trucks to the reservoir to store water.

This was not intended to extinguish wildfires, but rather to provide physical cooling for soldiers who might suffer from heatstroke.

Soldiers bear the responsibility of defending their country, so the government will not abandon them.

Logistical support will definitely be provided.
