Improper cannon fodder for fast wear

Chapter 1482 Extremely Drought World 23
Although the water supply was cut off, the city was still in chaos for the time being—thanks to the patrols everywhere on the street.

But neighbors who are short of water have knocked on An Ran's door to borrow or buy water.

No, an old lady from the opposite door came to ask An Ran for water that day.

The old lady's surname was Ma. After Yuanshen moved in, she had chatted with Yuanshen a few times, passing each other's surnames, so An Ran knew her surname was Ma.

At this time, Mrs. Ma saw that An Ran had opened the door, and while looking into her room, she said, "Xiao Li, do you still have water? Lend me a bucket and use it. When the desalinated sea water comes later, I will use it." Give it back to you. My house is out of water, so I can’t bear it anymore!”

An Ran didn't let her in, because she knew that this old lady was difficult to deal with, and she didn't want her to see how many things she had, so she would pester her in the future and take advantage of it in the name of borrowing.

Looking at the bucket in her hand that can hold at least twenty catties of water, she shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't have much water in my house, and I don't know when the desalinated seawater will come. I dare not borrow."

These days, those who are willing to spend money to buy are generally those who have some AC numbers in mind, and those who want to borrow, most of them don’t have AC numbers. After all, desalinated seawater does not know when it will come out. Rice is more precious. People who have water are afraid that the desalinated seawater will come out, and they are not even willing to sell it, let alone borrow it. Therefore, people who return the desalinated seawater when it comes are all in Take advantage, after all, who knows when desalinated seawater will come. Besides, seawater is incomparable with fresh water, and fresh water will be ridiculously expensive in the future.

As far as An Ran knows, this old lady is quite shrewd. She should have water at home, so she went to borrow water from her own place. She said that she would pay it back with sea water in the future. Knowing this, she wanted to take advantage of it, so she came to borrow it. After all, she didn't believe that such a shrewd old lady would not store water in advance.

Mrs. Ma did have water at home, and it was exactly as An Ran guessed. She predicted that fresh water might be expensive in the future, so she thought that An Ran was a young girl who didn't understand, so she wanted to cheat the water and trick An Ran's fresh water into storage. In the future, she will return the sea water, and then she will sell the fresh water to make a lot of money. After all, the water has only been stopped for ten days, and the fresh water outside will sell for 50 yuan per catty. The price will be one day in the future. It is very cost-effective to cheat water.

Unexpectedly, An Ran refused immediately, which made Madam Ma startled, seeing that An Ran was afraid that the water would not come for a while, so she didn't dare to borrow it, so she deliberately said mysteriously: "I have relatives who work in the water company. He said, the seawater desalination is almost done, and the water will definitely come next month, so Xiao Li, if you want water, just lend me some, and I will definitely pay you back next month, even if you don’t have it next month Come, I'll borrow water and pay you back."

The old lady Ma is quite well-informed about the news. The world where the original body was located did indeed have water for more than two months after the water was cut off. Fortunately, it only stopped for more than two months. Live without water for several months.

But An Ran naturally pretended not to know, and said with a stubborn face: "I don't know whether what you said is true or not, in case it is false, I lent you the water, I have nothing to drink What should I do? So don’t borrow, don’t borrow.”

Seeing that An Ran didn't believe her words, the old lady Ma became anxious, so she pretended to be pitiful, and said, "Xiao Li, please take pity on me. Look at how much water my family consumes in one day! There is no water. It’s really not good to drink!”

An Ran said with a wooden face: "I don't have any extra water."

Seeing that she didn't want to borrow water, Mrs. Ma couldn't help being unhappy, and said, "Why are you so cruel, you are a neighbor after all!"

An Ran secretly thought that a person who even deceives his neighbors is ashamed to say that others are cruel, so he immediately said indifferently: "Oh, I am cruel if I don't borrow the water to protect myself? If there is no water at that time, I will take it I lent you the water, we ran out of water and died of thirst, so it wasn’t your fault, didn’t you become more cruel?”

Madam Ma said: "Didn't I say that, if there is really no water, I will borrow it from others and pay you back."

"If there is really no water, many people should be out of water. Where can you borrow water? Isn't this a blank check and fooling me?"

Mrs. Ma wanted to say that the water would definitely come, but An Ran didn't believe it, so seeing that An Ran would not borrow water, she had no choice but to leave. Of course, she was very unhappy with An Ran in her heart.

Although she didn't borrow water from An Ran, Mrs. Ma didn't give up and continued to ask others to borrow it.

Not to mention, the guy who really made her wonder which floor she had fooled with lent her a bucket of water.

In addition to the old lady Ma who wanted to be a white wolf with empty gloves, there were also those who really ran out of water and wanted to buy some water.

For this, An Ran found out that the other party really ran out of water, and it was very miserable, so she sold some, but not too much, at most a few catties, to help the other party temporarily have water to drink. Try to find someone else to buy it. After all, it sells too much. Don't let people think that she has a lot of water. A bunch of people come to buy it, and she can't bear it if she is caught alone.

Besides, although desalinated seawater will be available soon, and Anran has stored a lot of water, enough to last for ten years, it is reasonable to say that Anran can sell more water, so it is not afraid that it will run out of water in the future.

But, just like what Zhang Yuanyuan thought, she was afraid that the desalinated seawater would be bad for her health, and Anran was also afraid, so although there will be desalinated seawater for use in the future, she is not afraid that it will be useless, but Anran has thought about it when the water is stored. The desalinated seawater is only used for washing, not for drinking, and the fresh water used for drinking is also used.

In this way, even if Anran has a lot of water in storage, it won't sell too much when someone buys it now.

Besides, before the supply of desalinated seawater, the price of these fresh water will be higher day by day. She is selling too much now, and it is too disadvantageous, so at most she sells a little bit, saving other people's lives, and can't look at people. dead?She wouldn't be foolish enough to sell too many.

Just like that, I sold five catties of water for one person, and the old lady on the opposite side saw it. She opened the door and said unhappily, "I asked you to borrow it, but if you didn't borrow it, why did someone else just lend it to you? Did I offend you somewhere?" , let you treat them differently?"

An Ran said speechlessly: "Which way do you see that I borrowed it? They bought it with money. If you are willing to buy it with money or food, I can also exchange it with you. Of course, even if I sell it, I won't sell too much. Yes, because I am afraid that the desalinated seawater will not come out for a while, and I will sell too much, and there will be no water to drink."

Let Mrs. Ma spend money to buy it, and the other party has not sold too much, so Mrs. Ma will naturally not buy it.

Anyway, she went outside to pretend to be pitiful, sell miserably, and get back free water, why would she spend money to buy it from Li Anran, she is not stupid!
So when the old lady Ma heard An Ran's words, she curled her lips and closed the door.
