Traveling through the new apocalyptic era

Yin Ling was woken up by the roaring sound of construction early in the morning, and the construction started before six o'clock.

Yawning, Yin Ling climbed off the canopy bed, took a toothbrush and a toothbrush, and went to the nearest sink to wash up.

Snowflakes were falling outside again, and a thin layer of snow was already spread on the newly built container. When the wind blew, the snowflakes fell on Xuan'er.

After only taking a sip of water to rinse his mouth, Yin Ling shivered from the cold. He looked back at the container to estimate the distance. He felt it was too far. Yin Ling endured the cold and brushed his teeth very clearly.

When she returned to the container, she picked up the kettle on the table. It was empty, and then she remembered that she and her grandma had used up the water last night while soaking their feet.

Water is one yuan a pot, which is not expensive. The main reason for charging is that the hot water supply is limited and we are afraid of wasting it, so we charge a nominal fee.

When Yin Ling arrived at the cafeteria, there were already people queuing up to get water. Yin Ling silently stood in the back and queued up without attracting anyone's attention.

The canteen is just a dozen large containers put together, with a few doors for easy access to get supplies. Everyone still queues outside, which is very simple.

Yin Ling took out one yuan from his pocket and handed it over with the kettle, and soon got a full kettle. She went to the supermarket to change the change yesterday. The supermarket had quite a complete range of items, but the price had doubled. Seeing that no one had any objections, everyone must have accepted it by default. After all, three meals are free, shelter and daily necessities are provided, and other needs are not very large. At present, supplies are still relatively scarce, and the price increase is within the acceptable range of everyone.

At seven o'clock, most people in the shelter got up, and after breakfast at eight o'clock, the shelter became completely lively.

The village party secretary held a loudspeaker and shouted that all men and women aged 18 to 50 must gather and be forced to work.

As the snow continues to fall and the temperature drops, the rescue work becomes more difficult. Therefore, residents who meet the requirements are forced to join the disaster relief work. Those who meet the conditions and do not participate will no longer enjoy free food and accommodation. Those who participate in the disaster relief will not only Room and board are free and a daily salary of 400 is given, which is settled on a daily basis.

Everyone was talking about it, and many people were very happy. 400 a day, which is more than a month, is more than farmers earn from farming and feeding pigs. Even people who work in the county can only get or a month.

Everyone actively signed up to participate.

Yin Ling looked at the snow falling more and more, and had a bad feeling in his heart. The government seemed to be very anxious about forced labor recruitment.

Yin Ling discussed with her grandma to let her have a good rest in the shelter, while she went out with the assigned rescue team.

The teams are randomly assigned, and people from one village may not be assigned together. She stood near the car door, surrounded by several unfamiliar faces. From everyone’s chat, she learned that they were not only from nearby villages but also from the county. of. The destination of their trip was the county town not far away.

Yin Ling originally thought they were here to save people, but when they arrived at their destination, they discovered that they were here to collect supplies. The military truck stopped near a shopping mall. After everyone got out of the car, a young officer shouted with a loudspeaker.

"Dear fellow villagers, I am Ye Jin, the person in charge of today's task. Today's task is to collect supplies around here, mainly all kinds of daily necessities, food, clothing and other convenient and lightweight supplies. Of course, the premise of collecting supplies is to ensure everyone's own safety. It’s safe. You can keep 5% of the collected materials for yourself, and I will settle the accounts with you when I get back.”

As soon as Ye Jin finished speaking, dozens of people who got off the bus couldn't help but look at each other, and then started whispering.

Yin Ling looked around and saw that everyone was confused for the first time on a mission. She was used to it, but the government's move made Yin Ling think it was a bit unusual. She stood quietly in the crowd without saying anything. Waiting for the next step.

"Everyone, now we will form a team of 3 people. Each person will distribute a sack to hold supplies. Each group will have a whistle. If there is a large amount of supplies that cannot be transported or there is a danger of collapse, the whistle will be blown in time. We will There will be timely rescue nearby. Be sure to go in a group and don't be left alone. Meet here for lunch at 1-2pm."

After Ye Jin finished speaking, he began to lead the team members to distribute sacks and whistles. While doing so, they formed teams according to their current positions. Each team of three had a dedicated person to record the names and team information of the players.

Yin Ling stood at the back. When it was her turn, her teammates happened to be a man and a woman on her left. They were a couple, about fifty years old. The three of them briefly introduced themselves, and they knew each other.

"Everyone, I would like to emphasize again that it is forbidden to hide materials privately. Once discovered, the money will be deducted ten times and the person will be kicked out of the shelter. Of course, I believe that our fellow villagers are simple and honest people and will not do such a thing. Next, please Pay attention to safety, as long as you think it is useful, you can pick it up. A lighter, a piece of clean paper, a pen, and a pack of biscuits are all useful things."

Ye Jin shouted the precautions again at the top of his lungs, and everyone dispersed to search for supplies from the nearby collapsed goods. Perhaps it was the novelty of this kind of work. Many people were working hard, as if harvest was in sight, looking at the ruins of the wall. The initial sadness has been replaced by excitement.

Yin Ling took the sack and silently followed the couple in front of him. Xu saw that Yin Ling was too young, so the two of them did not pay too much attention to Yin Ling. The two of them walked in front while chatting and discussing what could be used. They felt that they needed something. You can find something.

"Is your name Yin Ling? You go to this store and we'll look for it. If you need anything, just call me." The uncle named Wang Cheng stopped in front of a store that looked quite complete. The signboard It was nowhere to be found, the glass was all broken, and it was vaguely visible that it was a restaurant.

Yin Ling nodded, regardless of Xiao Jiujiu, he walked forward and stopped at the door of a clothing store.

The disaster in the county was more serious than she thought, but fortunately they were now in the northernmost old city. They were all five- and six-story old houses, and the residents had also moved away. This was the Pearl Plaza, with a three-story building in the middle. The shopping mall was surrounded by a circle of two-story shops, and the damage was not particularly serious.

This is a women's clothing store. The main door is a rolling shutter that is difficult to open, but the glass cabinet on display next to it has been broken. Yin Ling entered the store easily. When he entered, he found that the place had actually been occupied by someone who didn't know whether it was the store owner or a passer-by. Already cleaned up.

There weren't many things, so Yin Ling stuffed the down jacket and coat into the sack. She put the rest into the space, and also put away a few hangers. The drawer of the collapsed cashier desk was empty, Yin Ling guessed. It's up to the store to transfer it themselves. There was no room behind. Yin Ling filled up the sack and it was as tall as her. It was indeed a sack issued by the rescue team.
