The blizzard is coming: Start zero-dollar shopping in the apocalypse

Chapter 16

The next day, the snow had already reached the window sill on the third floor. The family on the second floor moved to the corridor on the fifth floor, but they were not as harmonious as on the fourth floor. The old lady from 501 took the money and turned off the power supply for them.

However, they didn't dare to go too far. They all felt that the disaster was almost over and it was best not to offend others.

In the afternoon, Gu Pan received a call from his good friend Dong Mingyue. Before Gu Pan could say anything, Dong Mingyue said excitedly: "Panpan, you are really my lucky star. Do you know? My mother-in-law is such a good person, otherwise We can't be in a hurry to have a baby because we're afraid that others will gossip behind our backs. In the past two days, because our family has a lot of supplies, my mother-in-law has saved a lot of face in our building. Although she gave a lot, the old lady looked at me. She's finally kind, you know, I haven't seen her smile so brightly at me in so many years."

Gu Pan frowned tightly when she heard this. She had told her in advance that supplies should not be given to others, but it was already like this and she had no choice. Although the relationship was good, it was the end of the world and she had no ability to take care of her. I have done what I can do about my family.

So she just gave her final warning: "I heard that this cold wave will continue for a long time. Even if the snow stops, it may not be easy to get food. You'd better be more economical and try not to let your mother-in-law give it away again."

Dong Mingyue didn't care so much: "It's okay, the country can still ignore us. My mother-in-law said that it is rare for our neighbors to need us so much. If we give them something to eat now, they will remember it for a lifetime. When the country distributes food, we can give it to them again." People don’t need it anymore.”

Gu Pan was silent for a moment and stopped trying to persuade her. He couldn't help her much: "Then you take care of yourself."

"Well, Panpan, don't be so nervous all the time. When the weather recovers in a few days, I'll treat you to dinner."

"Let's talk later."

Dong Mingyue felt a little disappointed, so she said goodbye and hung up the phone.

After listening to what Gu Pan said just now, Lu Ruisheng also guessed a little bit. He handed Gu Pan a glass of hot water and said, "You have tried your best."

Gu Pan took the water and took a sip before saying, "Indeed." After that, he picked up the phone and said, "Let me call Zhenzhen and ask."

Lu Ruisheng sat next to her and didn't say much.

Gu Pan called Tian Zhenzhen.

Soon Tian Zhenzhen picked up the phone: "Baby, I haven't dared to disturb you these days. I'm thinking of you as a newlywed. Finally, Mr. Lu of your family is no longer busy. Can't you exercise in bed every day?"

Gu Pan laughed when Tian Zhenzhen said: "Sister, can you be more serious? This has been going on today, how serious should I be to do that every day?"

"This is your fault. What kind of weather can prevent the collision of dry wood and fire?"

"Stop making trouble, I have a serious question to ask you. Didn't you give the food to others?"

"How is it possible? I'm not stupid. Besides, I'm a girl and I'm in an apartment building. If I show off my wealth, I'll be fine. I've hidden it well. Let me tell you, a netizen of mine who understands metaphysics told me that when the snow stops, there will be a disaster. It won’t stop, even though I don’t believe it, but I’d better stock up on more things.”

"Zhenzhen, you metaphysics netizen might actually have some skills."

"No, why do you believe in metaphysics?"

"No, I'm just kidding. By the way, when the snow stops, do you have to go back to your parents' place?"

"Well, I'm actually quite scared at night these days. When I can go home, I will definitely go home as soon as possible."

"Then ask your father and your brother to pick you up, and if you are really in danger, don't give up your life rather than your wealth."

"I know, don't worry. Our family, Panpan, cares about me the most. By the way, has Mingyue contacted you? Her mother-in-law is at their house. As soon as I call her, she will do this and that. I don't dare Hit." "She just called me and said that her mother-in-law was very happy about the supplies I gave her. She gave a lot to the neighbors and she gained face."

"What?" Tian Zhenzhen's tone was a little higher: "The weather has been like this for nine days, and she doesn't worry about starving one day? Why is she still so brainless? When I married that Wang Bin, I said Wang Bin couldn't You can rely on them, you see, the wedding house was bought by their family, and now my mother-in-law comes to live in it, and she even gives away things given by her friends as favors, what kind of people are they?"

"Don't be angry. We are not children anymore. Even if we care, we can't live with her forever. We have done everything we can say and persuade. The rest is her own fate."

"That's right. Anyway, I have lived a free and easy life without marriage and childbearing. My brother has a son and he doesn't need me to continue the family line."

"Lu Ruisheng and I just let nature take its course. We don't have so many rules."

"Mr. Lu is a good man, I'll rest assured if you marry him."

"Well, the luckiest thing in my life is meeting him."

"Stop it, let's start again. I don't eat dog food. I want to chase sweet dramas. I still have ten brothers waiting for me on the screen. Goodbye."

Gu Pan listened to the busy signal from the phone, put the phone on the table with a smile, and looked at Lu Ruisheng: "Tian Zhenzhen is really an optimist."

"We can help, so let's help more, but we are not sure how long we can help in the last days. After all, there will be no communication methods in a few days."

"Indeed, so the end of the world actually depends on people's abilities and destiny. We lived for more than three years in our previous life and were already very powerful. That's because your martial arts are strong."

"In this life, we not only have to live to the end, but we also have to live with quality."

After the two talked about heavy topics for a while, they then talked about the metaphysics netizens mentioned by Tian Zhenzhen. In fact, they both believed it. After all, there is room for metaphysics, and metaphysics should also exist.

In the evening, Gu Pan suddenly felt like drinking, so he had a barbecue today. He took out the ready-made skewers in the space, and each person had a can of beer. The couple chatted about everything while eating.

If it weren't for the snowstorm outside, no one would have thought that this was the end of the world.

On the tenth day, the snow finally stopped and the wind subsided, but the temperature outside had dropped to minus [-] degrees, the limit of human survival. At this temperature, as long as the skin is exposed, frostbite can directly occur.

However, the snow stopped, and people still felt that they saw hope, thinking that everything would pass soon. No one could have imagined that this extremely cold weather could last for several months.

At noon, when you stand upstairs, you can see someone clearing the snow. They are the troops. When they see the camouflage uniforms, everyone sees hope. Even though it is cold, they all open the windows and cheer.

The snow is too thick and it is impossible to clear it, and snow melting agents can only clear the main roads.

Then there was a broadcast, announcing that the municipal government had placed snow melting agent at the entrance of each community, and asked the community to organize manpower to clear a road from the unit door to the community entrance. However, the snow melting agent was limited. If it was not enough, it would have to be cleaned manually. Everyone works together to fight the disaster.

After a while, the director of Building 401 called all the staff: After discussion by the owners committee, a relay type of snow removal was adopted. The building closest to the community gate would be the first to send people to dig snow holes to the community gate, and then they would clear the road to the next one. The door of the unit in the next building will continue to be cleaned, one after another.The owners committee communicated with the property management company to waive the property fees for the first batch of owners for half a year, and the last building had to serve as volunteers for the community for half a year.

Everyone knows that the hardest work is for the first group to go out, and the cheapest is for the last building, because the last building does not need snow removal at all, so this compensation method can be accepted by everyone.

Gu Pan and others are on the second row of buildings, not the first or the last, so just follow them naturally.
