Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Yu Zibo said: "There is a limit, one bucket per person, the water is left at the door for you, you can get it yourself later."

Qin Huai said hello, and Yu Zibo said again: "How are you doing? Are you serious?"

Qin Huai said: "Fortunately, it\'s not serious. You go out to fetch water every day, so you have to be careful."

After making sure that the two of them were fine, Yu Zibai went into the house with his own bucket. Now fetching water has to be done with ID cards, and each person has a daily limit, but Qin Huai and the others suffer from pink eye, so they can only stay at home for fear of infecting people. Way to fetch water.

When they were fetching water, they wanted to inquire about the situation around them, to see if there were many outbreaks of pink eye disease, but they were afraid that they would attract people\'s attention. Qin Bing, who was in charge of patrolling here before, was injured and was recuperating for the time being. I couldn\'t find anyone to ask, so I didn\'t ask at all, so as not to cause trouble. After all, this is not a serious problem. If the higher authorities are afraid of infection and take people away for isolation, it will be troublesome.

The conditions for isolation are not good now. Maybe there are still many people with infectious diseases isolated together, which is too dangerous.

So now they, including Xu Ming, who was resting at home recently, the three of them go to fetch water together every day, and then share a bucket for Qin Huai and the others. Anyway, Qin Huai and his family have cleaned up, and the water consumption is not much, as long as it is enough for eating, drinking and washing every day. up.

After Yu Zibai and Jianchu entered the house, Song Jia was still standing in the yard looking at Qin Huai: "Where\'s Mu Nan?"

Mu Nan stood up behind Qin Huai: "What are you doing?"

Song Jia looked at him with a smile: "Look how red your eyes are."

Mu Nan took a flashlight and looked at him: "Don\'t gloat, look at the bump on your face, be careful of losing your appearance."

Song Jia touched the bump on her face: "It was bitten by ordinary mosquitoes. I checked carefully every day, and there were no insects."

Qin Huai hooked Mu Nan: "Go in, don\'t be bitten by mosquitoes."

Mu Nan waved to Song Jia, followed Qin Huai and turned into the house.

It may be that Qin Huai\'s physical fitness is better and his resistance is stronger, or it may be that he took the medicine as soon as he had a sign, so in about three or four days, his eyes basically stopped being red. When Qin Huai was well, Mu Nan\'s eyes were red. The secretions of the eyes began to decrease. I washed my eyes twice a day and applied medicine three or four times. The tube of eye ointment was almost used up.

Seeing that he was still scratching his eyelids, Qin Huai slapped his hand: "You are recovering slowly because of this."

Mu Nan touched the back of the hand that was beaten: "I was just worried that there would be parasites in the eyes. If the sewage hadn\'t entered the eyes, how could the eyes be inflamed? The sewage must be the sewage on the ground. Now all kinds of parasites are so Flooding, I always feel like I\'ve been tricked."

Qin Huai patted his mouth lightly: "Don\'t talk nonsense about eating noodles for three meals today."

The noodle warning made Mu Nan shut up in an instant. If he didn’t say anything, he wouldn’t say anything. He just had to peek at it while he was taking a shower.

It will be half a month later when Mu Nan\'s eyes are completely healed, and the maintenance of the cable lines has just started, because the apartment building has collapsed, so many high-altitude cables have to be re-routed, and some electric poles have been damaged. The water broke, so the whole line had to be replaced.

The cable factory is taking the time to rebuild the factory and put it into production. Other places are also trying to recruit people. The high-rise apartment in the first district collapsed. In such a hot weather, it must be cleaned up as soon as possible.

When this area is cleaned up, new housing should be built immediately. Many people are staring at the land in the first district. This is the land in the city. It has been full for a long time, and now it is rare to have a vacant space. Naturally, many people try their best to get in.

Because the whole second district is re-routing, so this period of time is particularly lively. The excitement of this job has dispelled some of the desperate atmosphere after the disaster. Mu Nan can see many wearing bees from the bay window of the room every day. Clothed people climbed the tall walk.

Bee clothing is the kind of overalls worn for honey picking in the past. It is made of fine gauze, from the hood to the feet, which is much more breathable than protective clothing, and will not be as stuffy as protective clothing. After all, the most important thing now is to prevent being caught. Mosquito bites, so this kind of bee suit is very suitable for outdoor workers, and even at home if conditions allow, of course, if you can buy so many sets.

There are also people who have developed a brain hole and added a lining to the inside of the honeycomb, which is to wrap a circle with steel wire to support the whole honeycomb, so that they don\'t worry that the clothes are too close to the flesh, and the mosquito\'s small beak can pass through the gauze. Ding to.

"Why didn\'t we buy some of this kind of clothes at the beginning? Now the mosquitoes are quite big, and they can\'t get through this kind of fine net at all. This is more breathable than protective clothing. Wearing it every day to fetch water is not afraid of being bitten by mosquitoes."

It\'s a pity that I didn\'t plan so thoroughly in the past. Who can be so thoughtful? He didn\'t know about it until now. They can\'t exchange two pieces of food for food, so now they go to fetch water every night, still wearing airtight protective clothing, sweating profusely.

Qin Huai said: "I can make one for you."

Mu Nan suddenly stared at him with wide eyes: "Huh?"

Qin Huai smiled and said, "Ah what, we bought so much gauze fabric, can\'t we still make a dress, just think about it."

When it comes to making clothes, Mu Nan suddenly remembered: "I remember the girl next door, I forgot who it was, I said before that she seems to be studying fashion design, and she also said that if there is a chance to get some fabrics, she can make clothes at home and sell them. Can you support yourself?"

Qin Huai said: "You want them to do it?"

Mu Nan didn\'t care: "If you think that making clothes can pass the time to think about it on your own, anyway, people are lazy after eating and sleeping these days."

Qin Huai thought for a while and said, "Ask them when you fetch water tonight. If you want to make clothes, see how many pieces can be made from a piece of cloth. If a family can have one, that\'s fine."

Mu Nan said: "How about the source of the cloth, it\'s impossible to move out a piece of cloth out of thin air, right? It\'s still the most in-demand gauze cloth."

"Don\'t worry about this. They all know that I have a lot of connections and know a lot of people. If there are girls who really know how to make clothes, then we can go out one day and drag some cloth back. But the cloth can\'t be given for free. This is the price. Think about it."

That night, when he was putting the bucket on the tricycle in the yard, Mu Nan went to ask Sun Sisi, and Sun Sisi asked suspiciously, "Clothes? Yang Jing is a professional, but there is no cloth. You don\'t have enough clothes?"

Yang Jing on the side said: "It\'s no problem to make clothes. I have some tools, but I need cloth and thread. If you can get cloth and thread, I can help you do it."

Song Jia turned her head to look at Mu Nan: "You don\'t have enough clothes? Do you still wear underwear outside?"

Sun Sisi rolled her eyes: "Although we are all sisters in this yard, don\'t we still need to pay attention to some things? You can just sew the underwear yourself, and at most help you make some clothes that you can wear when you go out. Pants." Asking a group of girls to help make underwear, what was going on in this man\'s mind!

Song Jia quickly straightened her body: "Who\'s a sister? I\'m going to be straight!"

Sun Sisi saw that he was **** off, and persuaded him: "Give up struggling, isn\'t it uncomfortable to be a weak person and be served by others?"

Song Jia raised his fists to chase after Sun Sisi, and Mu Nan said to Yang Jing, "We want to make that kind of gauze protective clothing to prevent mosquitoes. Can that kind of gauze fabric be made? If so, my brother will go." Find a relationship and get some cloth made of gauze fabric, how many sets can a piece of cloth make?"

Yang Jing said: "Save some materials, or use other fabrics. Didn\'t you make a lot of curtain fabrics before? If you do some splicing, you should be able to make three sets."

Mu Nan was taken aback, he thought he could make at least six or seven sets, but he didn\'t expect to be able to make three sets after splicing other fabrics: "Isn\'t a piece of cloth more than 30 meters long?"

Yang Jing looked at him and smiled: "How much do you think 30 meters can do?"

Mu Nan said: "The height is only 1.8 meters, so it will be 2 meters long, one front, one reverse and one stitched, four meters, and spliced ​​again. I think it will save at least ten sets." There are ten people in their yard.

Yang Jing was amused by his words: "Don\'t you need cloth for the sleeves? The cloth is woven for you according to the lines of your body and you don\'t need to cut it. The three sets are still barely put together. This is to omit the tedious process of various waste materials as much as possible. Come here, otherwise it will be more wasteful, sometimes a piece of cloth needs to be pieced together with other materials to make a suit of clothes."

Qin Huai came over and called Yu Zibai and Wu Zheng: "I asked someone to ask, and they can get me gauze cloth through a relationship, one hundred yuan plus one hundred catties of rice, if you want money, you need food. Now it depends on how many suits to make, I will make an appointment with someone, and we will pay Yang Jing an extra reward, which will be the compensation for making clothes."

Yang Jing said: "I don\'t need extra remuneration. As long as I have cloth and thread, I can make it for you. The protective clothing can be distributed to us, which is already considered a remuneration for us. After all, without your relationship, we would not even You can’t get ordinary cloth, let alone this kind of gauze.”

Qin Huai turned to look at Yu Zibai and the others: "How is it? If you want it, I\'ll confirm it with my friend, and I can get it in two days."

Yu Zibo said: "Yes!"

Wu Zheng also quickly said, "We want too."

Xu Ming said: "I don\'t need it, the farm will have a quota at that time, because they are all raised animals, which are more likely to attract mosquitoes, so they will be equipped with this kind of overalls at that time."

Now this gauze protective clothing is the best clothing to prevent mosquitoes without getting stuffy and heatstroke. Unless they hide at home and don’t go out at all, they will definitely be bitten when they go out. Wear long-sleeved trousers. If the clothes are not thick enough, just thin Thin fabrics can\'t prevent mosquitoes at all, they can bite you through the clothes.

It\'s just that if everyone makes a set, then the price will not be cheap, not counting Xu Ming, that is, if everyone makes a set, nine people, three pieces of cloth.

Qin Huai reminded them: "There may be a food crisis soon. You can decide for yourself. Go fetch water first, and then decide whether you want it or not after fetching water."

Although Qin Huai reminded, but in the end everyone wants it, this opportunity is too rare, and to be honest, with the current level of scarcity, the asking price is really not expensive in comparison. If there is such a condition, at least the mosquitoes will be flooded If you can go out when you are young, as long as you can go out, you can find opportunities to make money or earn food. At the very least, you can apply for jobs now, and many positions will include meals.

As long as there is work, you can have a bite to eat every day during the food shortage. It is worse than being stuck in the house and consuming the food. The food is used up. If you go out, you will be killed. Protective clothing for going out.

After everyone discussed, Qin Huai and Mu Nan took a day to drag the rice out first. As for the money, wait until the time comes to connect to the Internet before transferring the money.

Sitting behind Qin Huai, Mu Nan fanned him: "If the asking price didn\'t seem unreasonable, I wouldn\'t ask for their money and rice."

Qin Huai said: "Looking at it from another angle, although they were asked for money and rice, they were given more tools to survive in this harsh environment, and they were traded on an equal footing."

Mu Nan just sighed, money and food can be earned again, but if they are bitten by poisonous mosquitoes, they will not be able to take out medicine in time to save lives every time, so it is worth thinking about it this way.

Before the sun came out in the morning, Qin Huai took Mu Nan for a stroll outside. Even the early morning wind was sultry, and the two of them were drenched with sweat after a while. After arriving at most of their residences in the inner city, Mu Nan really felt that those with the best conditions were indeed in the second district.

Although the other places are also low-rise buildings, but the kind of low-rise buildings that may live in five or six households on the first floor, you can hear all kinds of noisy noises, quarreling, crying, pointing and cursing, as for those residents The broken windows outside have not been repaired, and there are messy things to block the windows, including cloth, wooden boards, and even various cabinets and tables, as long as they can block the sunlight.

The damaged walls, the dirty roads, and the desolation of the sun-baked and barren surroundings all showed the dire straits of the present day. Mu Nan couldn\'t help but clutch Qin Huai\'s clothes tightly.

Qin Huai took Mu Nan for a turn under the bridge hole that was cut off by the flood, and when he came out again, the rice on the car was gone, and he covered three rolls of cloth with black cloth, and then rushed to the sun to warm up. Before, he rode his bicycle back to the small courtyard quickly, and handed the three rolls of cloth to Yang Jing directly.

As for the other cloths, they have already been soaked in the big water, but the cloths are soaked after soaking, so they just need to be torn apart and dried in the sun. Anyway, they are also made for their own people to wear. can wear.

In order to be able to go out safely as soon as possible, Yang Jing started construction as soon as he got the cloth and thread. Although Sun Sisi and Tu Juan are not professionals in this field, the girls are careful and dexterous, and it is no problem to help out. This kind of gauze protection The clothes don\'t need to be close-fitting, and even the inside is planned to be lined with fine steel wire like others, so there is no need to make boards, and you can just get started.

Irrespective of the size or shape, it took more than a week to drive out all nine sets of protective clothing. This is still the result of staying up late and working overtime every day. If there are tools, the speed will be faster, but they do not have tools. It can only be sewn by hand. After the clothes are finished, the three girls have lost a lot of weight.

Sun Sisi slumped on the chair: "It turns out that making clothes is such a tiring thing. When I was a child, sewing clothes for my dolls was not so tiring."

Yang Jing left three sets of small sizes. They are not tall and not fat, and they can save fabrics. They barely made all of them, but the curtains are used on the legs and on the head, which can be saved. Province.

The gauze cloth was used up, and there was only a pile of cut-out scraps left, but Yang Jing didn\'t throw them away, and saved them up for sewing and mending, to see if he could put together something useful.

The anti-mosquito suit made by Yang Jing is actually pretty good-looking. The cloth chosen for splicing is similar in color, and it is the kind of light-colored dark flower, so although it is spliced, it is not ugly, and a lining is added inside to spread the whole clothes. Everyone is shrouded in it, and their activities may be a little restricted, but it\'s okay, anyway, I don\'t do anything that requires fine movements, so it\'s good to be able to protect myself from head to toe like this.

They go out to fetch water, and the scale looks very eye-catching. It cannot be said that they all know each other in the second district, but they fetch water every night, and their handsome men and beautiful women are really impressive, so I have a good impression of them. There are quite a few familiar ones. I didn’t have this kind of clothes yesterday, but I put them all on today. I thought they had found a private seller somewhere, so I couldn’t help asking.

Song Jia tugged at the gauze on her body, and said to the person who asked carefully, "Look carefully."

The man didn\'t understand what he meant, and he didn\'t see anything out of the ordinary when he looked up and down.

Song Jiadao: "It\'s made by dismantling the mosquito net. It\'s not the kind of professional clothes they have, but the mosquito net has been modified. The situation is pressing. In order to go out safely, I have thought of all the ways I can think of."

The man looked at it again, and it was true. This is a mosquito net. It is thin and soft. He suddenly wondered: "You take down the mosquito net, what are you going to do when you sleep at night? Wear this to sleep?"

Song Jia sighed: "I can only do this for the time being. Aren\'t we rerouting the wiring these few days? When the electricity is on, we will turn on the air conditioner at home. At that time, if the doors and windows are closed in the house, there will be no mosquitoes. Let\'s get through these days first." Bar."

Knowing that they disassembled the mosquito nets to make clothes, some of them might have more mosquito nets at home or those who also had this kind of gauze fabric, so they gathered here one after another. Wanting to see how the clothes were made, Song Jia directly helped Yang Jing and the others recruit them. Started a business: "Look for her, she is a top student of the School of Fashion Design, our clothes are all made by her, and they are not expensive, as long as you have the fabric, ten catties of rice for handwork, a set of clothes will be delivered in three days. "

Song Jia was just joking and yelling casually, but unexpectedly it was actually recorded on purpose. The next day, someone waited for them to fetch water and asked Yang Jing if he could really help with it. Ten catties of rice It’s not too much, but it’s not too little either, but compared to the expensive and high price of buying professional anti-mosquito clothing by yourself, ten catties of rice and mosquito nets are worth a set of protective clothing that can go out, as long as Mosquitoes are not extinct, and they may be used every year in the future.

Being able to do manual work at home to earn rations, Yang Jing naturally has no problem, and does not need others to pay first, just pay after the clothes are ready, and he is not afraid that others will not pay, a set of finished mosquito-proof clothing is sold, Hundreds of catties of rice are too much to be robbed.

Seeing the girls start a small business, Song Jia held Mu Nan\'s shoulders and sighed: "I didn\'t expect that the three of them would be the first to live a small life at home. When will our circular planting business be put on the agenda. "

Mu Nan turned to look at him: "The seeds have been planted again?"

Song Jia sighed: "Wait for the call. It\'s so hot that even weeds can\'t grow, let alone food. Is your rabbit still alive?"

Mu Nan: "Fed by steamed buns and dead pepper and tomato leaves, he is still alive and strong. When he grows up a bit and Qin Bing\'s injuries are healed, let\'s kill and eat meat someday."

After Mu Nan finished speaking, he glanced at his elder brother and Yu Zibai who were fetching water in front, and reached out to bump into Jian Chu who was next to him: "Is your Yu Zibai really going to work on the farm?"

Jian Chu nodded: "Well, we have discussed it, and it happens that the farm needs people. Before, there was no protective clothing, but now we have it, so let\'s go. The family suffered heavy losses and consumed a lot of money. We must find something to make a living, otherwise we will just sit and eat. gone."

Although the farm work will match clothes, but it is not immediately available. Now even Xu Ming and the others don’t have them, and those who have just started working can only wait for the higher-ups to order clothes. If they can have them, then naturally Better yet, it\'s safer to be more careful.

Mu Nan nodded: "That\'s fine. At least there is Xu Ming taking care of the farm. He works on the farm. When the call comes, you can plant grass and raise rabbits at home. Life will always get better."

Jian Chu sighed slightly: "I hope." They don\'t dare to have any hope in the current world. Who knows what kind of disaster they will suffer if they just speed up their days. Every day is a day. Bar.

As soon as Shui and his party rode a tricycle back home, they saw the street lights sizzling and turned on, and at the same time heard the cheers of many people. Although the house was not powered on, the circuit of the street lights outside was connected. It probably only took a day or two for the family to do this. Not long ago, some households had come to check the wiring.

Looking at the street lights, Mu Nan was a little happy: "Great, I finally got the call. If I don\'t call, I\'m going to die of heat." Even though there were ice cubes to cool him down, Qin Huai didn\'t let him get close to the ice cubes, and he was hot every day when he slept. The puddles of sweat on the mat are far from what the air conditioner can compare.

Jian Chu looked at Mu Nan: "The electricity will come sooner or later, but can the air conditioner still work?"

This question made Song Jiawen, who was also happy, frown: "My air conditioner is seriously flooded, and I really don\'t know if it can be used."

Mu Nan said: "My brother disassembled the air conditioner and cleaned it, but we won\'t know if it works until it is powered on." As for other electrical appliances, the refrigerator must be usable, and they were put into the space before leaving. It\'s all very good.

Yu Zibai said: "If you can\'t use it, then think of a way. If it doesn\'t work, first make a simple fan to cool it down."

Song Jia\'s eyes lit up, and Mu Nan asked curiously, "How do the fans do it?"

Yu Zibai shrugged: "I don\'t know, think about it when you need it."

Song Jia: "...I thought you would do it."

The electricity came in the middle of the night, Mu Nan was lying on his back, and was awakened by Qin Huai when he was covering his body with a big blanket. In a daze, he subconsciously kicked his legs to get rid of the \'heat source\' that was in the way, but was gently pushed away by Qin Huai. Suppressed: "The air conditioner is on, put a blanket on it to avoid catching cold."

Mu Nan didn\'t hear clearly, so he hummed in a daze, realized that Qin Huai didn\'t let him push on the blanket, so he stopped, turned over and continued to sleep, and when he woke up in the morning, he was still curled up in Qin Huai\'s arms Whether to wake up or not, he said: "I dreamed that there was a call."

Qin Huai gave him a good morning kiss: "It\'s a call, and the air conditioner turns on in the middle of the night."

Mu Nan sat up abruptly, and immediately yelled: "A phone call? I just said why I slept so comfortably, I didn\'t wake up from the heat last night."

You have to know that even with ice cubes and an air-conditioning fan, because Qin Huai is not allowed to get too close and the fan is blowing, it is common to wake up in the middle of the night, and last night he slept until dawn.

Mu Nan quickly took out his phone, but the phone still had no signal, so he might have to wait a while, but now that the call came, he could finally live a cool day with air conditioning.

His life is happy, but the neighbors are not so happy. The hope that the air conditioner may still work after washing it in water is broken by the intuitive test machine after the call. Their air conditioner , scrapped.
