The return of natural disasters before the end of the world

March has just emerged, and sweaters have withdrawn from the lives of the masses overnight.Changes in temperature are the hottest topic now, and various Internet headlines and social news are talking about abnormal weather.

The torrential rain that lasted for nearly a month caused floods in many areas, but the sudden drop in temperature seriously affected the harvest of crops, which further promoted the rise in prices.And the subsequent snowstorm made the situation worse. The abnormal weather changes throughout the year brought a lot of losses to the country and caused a lot of trouble to the people's lives.

It was still snowing heavily in February, but the sun was shining brightly in early March, and the temperature in some areas even reached nearly [-] degrees.

Su Li sat on the computer chair in an indecent position, gnawed on crushed ice in his mouth, and kept fanning with a fan in one hand, "It's only been a few months since it's been so hot, how can people live in summer, otherwise Let's rent a house outside, at least it has air conditioning"

Yao Ziqing remembers the sudden heat up in his last life, even the seedlings in the family’s field couldn’t grow well. In the end, the weather got hotter and hotter. My eldest brother simply planted corn, which is drought-resistant, and didn’t do rice at all. consider.

The year in the previous life was not bad, because there was no shortage of water, but the weather was too hot. My eldest brother put a layer of sunscreen on the ground, and the corn rose quite well.In this life, Yao Ziqing knew that the weather would be very hot, but he didn't remind his elder brother.If the eldest brother knew what countermeasures he had taken in advance, there would always be something unusual in the eyes of the villagers, and it would be better not to know anything.

Wu Wenqing's family also farms, and they rely on farming to make money to support their family, so at this moment Wu Wenqing is more concerned about the abnormal weather

"Now that the heat is so hot, how can the land be planted? The state will not compensate the harvested crops."

Wu Wenqing's family is relatively farther north, and the water resources are not abundant. If there is another drought, it can really be said that the harvest will be lost.

Cheng Tao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's not your family. The whole region is like this. The country will definitely deal with it. It can't just leave the country alone when the weather changes and kills farmers."

Su Li snorted disdainfully, "You think too much about the harmony of the world, right? The country cares about your life and death. It's a big deal to do a field inspection, squeeze out a few crocodile tears, and talk nonsense. Let's work together to overcome difficulties and the disaster will pass. , life will get better, ah bah! How long have you been shouting the slogan of building a harmonious society and running towards a well-off society? It’s not that there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor! Listen to the country, and you don’t know how you died.”

Cheng Tao looked at Su Li with displeasure, "Can't you say something nice? If you don't tell the truth, you will die!"

Wu Wenqing was hit by Su Li's merciless arrow, and then made up for by Cheng Tao

"You two should stop talking, just go online quietly like Qingzi, I can't have a pleasant chat with you anymore"

Su Li rolled his eyes at him, "The fields are about to be harvested, and you're still chatting happily. You must have been fooled by the heat. No, you're not smart at all. It's a miracle that you were able to get into college."

Yao Ziqing heard them mention him and looked up at them.Su Li is too hot to play games at all, and now he is using Su Li's computer, and it is more convenient to operate some things on the computer.

"There is no end to the sky. Don't worry. Besides, it won't help if you worry about it here. Your family has planted the land for many years. Do you still need to worry about it? Naturally, there is a way to deal with it. If you really can't The solution is not your family's business, and worrying about it can't make God change his face, so why bother with those worries?"

Wu Wenqing leaned next to Yao Ziqing, "Qingzi, are you still working part-time?"

Yao Ziqing shook his head, "I didn't do it, don't you know that?"

Wu Wenqing scratched his head in embarrassment, "Well, do you still have the resources you used to do translation? I want to find some part-time jobs." Earning more and earning less is at least a profit, and it's better than doing nothing.

Yao Ziqing went back to his desk and looked through some materials. Many of the things he used to work part-time were still there, so he just sorted them out and gave them to them.

Cheng Tao looked at Wu Wenqing suspiciously, "Aren't you working in a fast food restaurant now? There are also tutors on weekends, which is enough to support your own life, and you also need to be an interpreter? Are you worried that there is no income at home to be safe?"

Wu Wenqing chuckled, but didn't speak.

Su Li snorted coldly, threw the finished crushed ice into the trash can, squinted at Wu Wenqing, turned around and went to the bathroom to wash his hands without saying anything.

Wu Wenqing was a little puzzled and blinked in confusion.

Yao Ziqing handed a stack of documents to Wu Wenqing, "Here are a few contact methods. You can contact them first. If there is something that needs to be translated, it will be sent to you by email. After it is finished, it will be mailed back. You can discuss the detailed cost by yourself.”

"Thank you Qingzi, I will treat you to dinner when I have income."

Hearing the invitation to dinner, Su Li snorted again.

Wu Wenqing got used to his eccentricity, so he turned around and looked through the things.

Cheng Tao raised his eyebrows at Su Li—what do you mean?Uncle is here?

Su Li stared - you are the uncle!

Cheng Tao glanced at Wu Wenqing—then why are you so weird about your nose and eyes?Did you mess with me?

Su Li rolled his eyes, and glanced at the desk calendar on Wu Wenqing's desk—can't you be blind to see the things circled!

Cheng Tao followed his gaze and saw that he was indeed circled one day.Then Cheng Tao understood in seconds, the goddess' birthday was coming, and she was hurrying to make money.

Yao Ziqing sat on the bed with his tablet in his arms and watched the two of them make eye contact. Seeing the wonder of Cheng Tao's sudden realization, he fell silent. Is this because he has already synchronized his mind? He can no longer keep up with their footsteps.

Yao Ziqing ordered 2 large water tanks that can store [-] tons of water, and rented a super-large warehouse in the suburbs. A water tank costs nearly [-] yuan, which is much more expensive than he imagined.

Because it is just testing the waters, ordering too many for the first time is afraid of attracting attention.Although the water tank was big, it was just a drop in the ocean in his space.After putting all the water tanks into the space, Yao Ziqing did not go back to the school dormitory that day.Instead, taking advantage of the dark night, they arrived at the East Lin Reservoir.

This reservoir is also the largest reservoir in their province, and it happens that the city is not too far from the school.The ecological construction near the reservoir is very good, and it is equivalent to a tourist attraction in this city.However, environmental protection has been particularly strict in recent years, and this reservoir is also a key project of the country. Even tourism can only be done to see the scenery on the dam, not to mention swimming in the water, and there is no water yacht project.

Donglin Province is originally a province with scarce water resources, so it pays more attention to water resources.The Donglin Reservoir is guarded by special personnel on duty at night, and even pulls a net to seal it up.But Yao Ziqing knew that there was a small path to go to the reservoir.

However, there are no fish in this reservoir, and it is quite deep. You cannot swim or fish. Even if there is a trail to enter, not many people risk getting caught.There is nothing in it except water, why sneak in, steal water?Who can steal water as quietly as Yao Ziqing with his own equipment.

After almost midnight, there was basically no one around.Yao Ziqing's vision is very clear now, even if there is no light or moonlight, he can reach the level of night vision when walking in the mountains and forests late at night.Therefore, you can see clearly when you shuttle in the trail without needing to illuminate the road.

Fumbling all the way along the road in my memory, I will soon see the rippling water reservoir under the moonlight.After a few years of this kind of clear water, a drop of water is priceless.Yao Ziqing couldn't hold back his excitement. Using the cover of the night, today he deliberately chose a pair of black clothes and trousers, coupled with the lush trees next to him, sneaked by the water, and put his hands into the water.

Soon the water tank in the space began to pour a large amount of clean water, and Yao Ziqing's subordinates gradually started to vortex.Fearing that there would be too much noise, Yao Ziqing hurriedly controlled the speed and strength of the charging, gradually the vortex became smaller, and the water surface slowly calmed down again.It took Yao Ziqing almost half an hour to fill a water tank, and his feet became numb after a long pause.

After standing up and moving for a while, move on to the next one.It was not until the sky was clear that Yao Ziqing filled all twenty water tanks.Although he didn't sleep all night, he was absorbing the elemental energy around him all the time, and he was still in good spirits.After solving the serious problem in his heart, Yao Ziqing felt much happier.

These [-] water tanks are just the beginning. When he ordered the water tanks that day, he saw that many people also had this intention and were asking for some details.The weather is getting hotter and hotter, so there are naturally more orders for this kind of domestic water tanks, especially in Donglin Province, which is relatively short of water, so the sales of this kind of water tanks are naturally more popular, but there are not many such large ones.

After more than half a month, Yao Ziqing found the salesperson from last time again, and this time ordered fifty at once.Because it was mentioned last time that this is only the first batch, if the villagers use it well, there will be more orders in the future.

Over the years, we have been promoting rural development. The urban villages have turned urbanites into house slaves. Ruralites have only four or five houses in their hands, and urbanites may not necessarily have as much money as those in rural areas.So there are countless small houses and villas built in the countryside, and more of their orders come from here.It's just that this kind of bulk private order is rare, but it's nothing unusual.It's good to make money, as long as there is less after-sales trouble, everything will be fine for them.

Cheng Hui turned the chair, looked at the busy back of Lei Xiao packing things, put his hands behind his head and sighed

"I said you don't have any emotions at all? If you successfully complete the task this time, you can be promoted to lieutenant. This line has taken nearly three years. It's such a failure. I feel so distressed that I want to die. You This person still looks indifferent, are you a robot?"

Lei Xiao turned a deaf ear to Cheng Hui's naughty thoughts, and there were not many things to tidy up. Summer clothes are relatively thin, and a few changes are enough.

"Tell me, where will the old crooked goods be hidden? It can't just disappear out of thin air, right? Unfortunately, the clues are cut off just like that."

Cheng Hui really felt sorry for Lei Xiao. Although he didn't know Lei Xiao's specific mission, the reason Lei Xiao was transferred to the special team was because he was a rookie, for this mission.After chasing for three years, I managed to catch them all in one go. Well, I missed a fish, and it was the fattest one.

If this kind of thing is changed, anyone will be annoyed and their intestines will be broken. There is a difference in level, and the rights are different, not to mention the increased treatment.Seeing that Lei Xiao didn't respond to him, Cheng Hui thought of another thing

"Have you been approached by the higher authorities? I heard that many people have been recruited this time, but they have to keep it secret before signing the agreement, and they don't even disclose the nature of the mission."

Lei Xiao finally had a reaction at this moment, "I'm looking for it, I won't go"

"Why? Although it took a little longer, there is no danger. It's just a matter of using time to accumulate military achievements. It's just a change of place."

Lei Xiao looked at Cheng Hui who was sitting on the chair and turning leisurely, seeing that he was clearly moved, his eyes fluctuated slightly.

Cheng Hui was inexplicably startled by him, "What's the matter? Or do you have any inside information?"

As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at the door outside the window, then moved closer to Lei Xiao and hooked him on his shoulder, "Boy, what's the inside story? Good thing or bad thing? Let me know."

Lei Xiao just shook his head, and after a moment of silence, he repeated "I won't go"

Cheng Hui licked his lower lip, looked at Lei Xiao seriously, his eyes were meaningful, and finally patted Lei Xiao on the shoulder, "Okay, I'm going first, I wish you and your baby brother a happy May Day holiday "

After Cheng Hui left, Lei Xiao looked down at his palm.There are obvious calluses on the tiger's mouth, index finger and palm, which are the marks left by years of training.

From the first day I entered the school, I was warned that as a soldier, I have to serve the country and the people all my life.Even though this was not the original reason for choosing the military school, but after being brainwashed for seven or eight years, this gradually ingrained concept would make him react subconsciously in many cases.

At the moment when Lao Wai was solved with his own hands, all persistence and belief were shattered by that shot.

Seeing Si'er running towards him with a big smile on his face, the doubts and self-defeating uncertainties in Lei Xiao's heart were immediately settled.He raised his hand and rubbed Si'er's head lightly, seeing his smiling eyebrows, chattering endlessly, talking about all kinds of interesting things that happened in school in recent months, Lei Xiao's eyes were also stained with stars A little smile.

He never thought he was a good guy, but for the sake of his family, he didn't mind being a bad guy with blood on his hands.

Seeing that Yao Ziqing's backpack was empty and didn't seem to contain much, Lei Xiao put his bag into his own.There were people coming and going at the airport, Lei Xiao was carrying his bag and put one hand on Si'er's shoulder, protecting him from the passing crowd.

The second brother had contacted him to set up a time and asked him to wait at the airport in the morning. Now that the second brother got off the plane and took out the ticket, Yao Ziqing knew that they were going to Scitech this time.

Dorset is a relatively responsible place. It is the border area of ​​several countries, so the law and order are particularly poor, and it is almost a paradise for criminals.It's not that Yao Ziqing has never been abroad, it's just the first time he went to this kind of border area, he looked at his second brother with some doubts, is it the so-called 'non-existent things' to buy supplies there?

Lei Xiao is a policeman, and sometimes he enters and exits such a complicated border area because of missions, so the place of entry and exit inspection will often give certain convenience.Yao Ziqing was taken by him and quickly completed the formalities, and got on the plane without any accidents.

After getting on the plane, Yao Ziqing looked at his second brother, "Fortunately, I had already applied for a passport just in case I had to go abroad, otherwise, how could you get it done so suddenly?"

Lei Xiao checked his seat belt and other facilities, and adjusted the seat for him to "sleep for a while"

Lei Xiao didn't say that even if he doesn't take the plane, he has more ways to bring a person without a passport into and out of the country.

Yao Ziqing also knew that outside was not the place to talk, so he adjusted his phone to airplane mode, put an earphone into his second brother's ear, and leaned on his shoulder with his eyes closed to rest his mind.

About five or six hours into the flight, Yao Ziqing's cell phone ran out of battery and turned off automatically before getting off the plane.Listening to the broadcast in the cabin, Yao Ziqing sat up and stretched

"It's finally here, second brother, have you booked the hotel? You should tell me first, so that I can book everything online"

"Don't worry, everything is ready"

Yao Ziqing nodded, the second brother always handled everything in an orderly manner, even if he wanted to help.Every time as long as I am with my second brother, I feel like an incompetent patient.Some natures are formed invisibly in this way, for example, he can be independent and manly without his second brother, but when he is with his second brother, he will automatically turn into a child who needs to be taken care of in everything.

After leaving the airport, there was a car waiting at the door, Lei Xiao took Yao Ziqing and walked directly towards the car.What Dorset does not lack are rich people, and those who come to pick them up are off-road vehicles worth millions in China.

Because once Yao Ziqing said that this kind of big car is comfortable to sit on, Lei Xiao remembered it, so it is also the same when buying a car, and it is also this kind of big car that is scheduled to pick up people.

After arriving at the hotel, the driver handed Lei Xiao the car keys, Lei Xiao gave him a tip, and the driver thanked him happily before leaving.

Yao Ziqing saw that the second brother had exchanged all the money, and thought that he hadn't realized that he had to exchange coins, but he had done it in a bank in his previous life.

Although the law and order in Seth is very poor, it is indeed a gold selling cave.The decoration of the hotel is resplendent and magnificent, Yao Ziqing's eyes are almost blinded.After the second brother completed the check-in procedures and took him into the elevator, Yao Ziqing asked stupidly

"I've read in the news that the bathroom bridles in some hotels in Dorset are gold-plated, is it true?"

Lei Xiao looked at him in silence for a moment, and when the elevator reached their floor, he said helplessly, "You can scrape down one floor to have a look."

Yao Ziqing's first reaction was that he should be arrested by the hotel.

Lei Xiao booked a suite. Fortunately, the room is not as magnificent as the hall on the first floor. It has warmer and softer tones and looks quite comfortable.The bed in the room is full of European style, surrounded by romantic curtains.Yao Ziqing thought of the insect plague when he saw this, and always regarded the food and water source as the biggest thing, and missed these mosquitoes

"Second brother, after our house is built, we should also buy a tent like this, so we won't be afraid of mosquitoes in summer. It's so thick, mosquitoes shouldn't be able to get in."

The curtain is made of cloth, not gauze, but it feels airtight when covered in this way.If there is no air conditioning in summer, it will be even hotter.But compared to being mutated by mosquitoes, at least being hotter can guarantee life.

What's more, since he started to absorb the energy of the surrounding elements autonomously, the three in the dormitory were so hot that they wanted to soak in the water, but he just felt a little stuffy, and didn't sweat profusely like them.Fortunately, in their eyes, I was not in good health, and my body temperature was always relatively low. Seeing that I was not as hot as they were, I just sighed.

Lei Xiao opened the curtains, and the floor he chose was the 28th floor, which was quite high.Without the cover of the curtains, the night scene outside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows suddenly unfolded in front of my eyes.

It was only then that Yao Ziqing realized that the room they slept in was actually surrounded by French windows. He opened all the curtains in surprise, and the brightly lit street outside the window looked down from the high floors.

"Second brother, this hotel is good, the room is good and the environment is beautiful"

Lei Xiao just hummed, took out the bag belonging to Si'er from the bag, opened it and saw that there were not many clothes in it, and looked back at him, just as Yao Ziqing turned to look at him.

Seeing the bag in the second brother's hand, Yao Ziqing hurried forward to take it over, "Anyway, only I know what's in my bag, I just pretend to have some things, and it's too heavy to carry."

Lei Xiao didn't say anything, but let him take a bath first.Yao Ziqing hurriedly ran into the bathroom with his bag in his arms, thinking that the second brother would definitely teach him a lesson. It seems that the second brother has become more and more used to the existence of space, and he is not as repulsive to his use of space as he was at the beginning.

After taking a comfortable bath, I don't know what a luxurious hotel like this will look like in a few years.In the future, it will be difficult to enjoy this kind of luxury that money can bring. It is rare to have the opportunity to travel with the second brother. Naturally, it is necessary to have a good time.

After the second brother went in to take a shower, Yao Ziqing plugged in his mobile phone and the second brother's mobile phone to charge, lay down on the bed, took out the tablet and started surfing the Internet.

There was a chat group of four in their dormitory, and they entered the group to report that they were safe and told about the environment here.The group immediately clamored for him to take pictures, so Yao Ziqing, like a little bumpkin, held the tablet and took pictures inside and out, including the night scene outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

[Boss—Brother Qing]: It’s so beautiful. Such a hotel is very expensive. I didn’t expect your second brother to go abroad when he said he would take you abroad. I just want to have a chance to go out of the province in the future.

[The third child—cleanliness]: Qingzi, does your second brother still need a younger brother?

[Old Fourth—Male God]: No shortage!By the way, can I change my title? Every time I read it, I feel so strange.

[Old Third-Cleanliness]: I don't even despise me, but what a fart you despise!Are there many handsome guys over there?Is the beauty very enthusiastic, but it seems that foreign people don’t like you, a small fresh meat, and prefer a man with a physique like your second brother, be careful, you will have an exotic second sister-in-law =(^. ^)=!

Seeing Su Li's words, Yao Ziqing glanced in the direction of the bathroom [Fourth-Male God]: Impossible, my brother is not that kind of superficial person, where is Cheng Tao?Invisibility or spying?

[Second child - grandma]: ...

[Old Third - Cleanliness]: Yo~ Qingzi is your summoned beast, you won't come out unless you are summoned!

Yao Ziqing couldn't bear to look directly at these titles, they were all magic horses and magic horses!

[Second child—Daddy]: Have fun and be safe.

[Old Fourth—Male God]: Well, don't worry, it's absolutely safe to be with my second brother, don't talk anymore, it's late here, I'm offline, and I'll bring you special products back when the time comes.

[Old Third-Cleanliness]: If you can bring me a meeting of handsome men and beautiful women, I will love you to death, go to sleep, I'm off to play games.

Cheng Tao sat alone in the dormitory. Su Li went home during the May Day holiday. Wu Wenqing was worried about the family's harvest, so he also went home during the holiday.Looking at the photos uploaded by Yao Ziqing in the group, some took pictures of the clouds on the plane, some took pictures of foreign streets in the car, and even took a close-up of the big bed in the hotel.

Obviously Yao Ziqing's second brother couldn't book two rooms, he must live with him.Cheng Tao's eyes darkened as he watched his head darken, and suddenly became irritable.I threw myself on the bed a little annoyed, I was really fed up with this inexplicable emotion that popped up from time to time.

Lei Xiao didn't use the toiletries provided by the hotel. He saw Si'er's own things on the bathroom table, including a hair dryer. It seems that no matter where you go, you can bring Si'er with you.

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao couldn't help but raise a smile.No matter where you go, the idea of ​​carrying Si'er is very good, and you can implement it concretely.

Yao Ziqing waited for the second brother to take a shower and turn off the light in the living room, then put away the computer, lay down obediently, and waited for the second brother to go to bed.

"Do you want to draw the curtains?"

Yao Ziqing thought for a while, because the second elder brother kept such vigilance even when sleeping, if the light was too strong, he might not be able to sleep well, so he said, "Pull it up, there is a light, it's dazzling"

The room was suddenly plunged into darkness. After the second brother lay down, Yao Ziqing quickly rubbed up, hugged the second brother's arm and explained with an excuse

"In this way, when I absorb elemental energy, it may be able to drive you to absorb more."

Lei Xiao didn't make a sound, just adjusted his sleeping position a little, and let Si'er lie in his arms, anyway, he's been sleeping like this since he was a child, and he's not unaccustomed to it.

Yao Ziqing was a little uncomfortable at first, after all, sleeping next to the person he likes is enough to test his endurance, let alone being so close.He forced himself to focus on the elements around him, which was a little more natural.

"Second brother, I have collected a lot of water. The large water tank I ordered, well, it is probably enough for our household for ten years. When it runs out, we can refill it when we encounter water resources."

"Did you feel anything specifically? Food, water, hunger and drought? What else?"

Yao Ziqing didn't dare to say too much, and he said too many mistakes, "I just feel that disasters will be severe in the future, and I feel very uneasy. I don't know what it is. I have read a lot of novels, and there are all kinds of disasters. I counted them, probably It’s just the weather is different, it’s either extremely cold or extremely hot, or a very severe infectious disease, or something outrageous is zombies.”

"Zombies? The ones in the movies?"

"Well, it's the kind that can eat people, but it's just a movie, and I'm just using it as a reference material. By the way, second brother, what supplies do you want? Do you need money? I still have about 2000 million, and I will keep giving it to you Keep it, I’m afraid you don’t have enough money for what you want to buy.”

Lei Xiao never asked Yao Ziqing how he got so much money, since he said it so directly to express a kind of trust, there is no need to get to the bottom of it

"Tomorrow I will take you to collect things. What else do you need? You make a list and I will get it. You should study hard at school. You were more careful the few times before, but you can't be careless."

He knew about Si'er's previous moves, and he also kept an eye on them secretly, ready to help him clean up at any time.But fortunately, Si'er has a sense of propriety in doing things, knows his limits, and no accidents happened.

It's not that he underestimated Si'er's ability, it's just a natural desire to protect.I always feel that even if Si'er can handle some things well, it's safer to do it by myself.

Yao Ziqing didn't care. He used to worry that it would be inconvenient for his second brother to be in the army, or he would be more conspicuous because of his status, so he didn't want to trouble his second brother for everything.

But now I understand that the second brother is much more free than him, and even the military rank will be restricted in many things, but he also has more privileges, and it will be much more convenient to do things.

Lei Xiao noticed that the clock was ticking, and there were still many things to do tomorrow, so he patted Sier to let him sleep, and the room became quiet.
