The Days of Opening a Restaurant on an Abnormal Earth

Mia is working hard to collect rainwater, which is at least clean in her opinion. Because it came down from heaven. In Mia's low-knowledge brain, she always felt that the farther the water source was from the mine, the safer it would be.

It was because I was lazy during pregnancy and drank tap water directly instead of receiving rain from the sky, which caused little Lina to suffer from lead poisoning. If I'm trying to collect some rainwater and let Lina drink healthy water...

Mia worked very hard. She picked up a lot of mineral water bottles, removed the bottoms of them, tied them up row by row with wire, and placed them on the roof. When it rains, these mineral water bottles can play the role of water storage. I also made a dew collector out of mineral water bottles, so that I can harvest the dew in the air in the morning.

Mia works very hard. She is so busy every day to get a [clean] water source, which can guarantee the basic water source for the family.

Little Lina came back after school, and when she saw Mia she smiled and shouted happily: "Mom, I'm back!"

Mia, who was picking up the tomatoes she had grown in the small yard by the door, looked up and saw her daughter. She opened her arms and said, "Come here, my baby. What did you learn in school today?"

She hugged her daughter and easily picked her up.

Lina is seven years old, but compared to normal seven-year-olds in other countries of the world, she looks small and thin. Although she has beautiful long chestnut hair and lake blue eyes, she looks like a delicate doll. But just a smile from her mouth destroys this delicate feeling.

Because she has a mouthful of underdeveloped rotten teeth, and there are streaks of blue blood lines on the gums.

This made her, who was supposed to look delicate, become ugly when she smiled.

But Mia doesn't think her daughter is ugly, she just thinks she is the most beautiful child in the world. She hugged Lina and pressed her forehead against Lina's forehead, which made Lina giggle.

Mia's house is not big. The house is built with concrete bricks. The white putty on the wall was painted by her husband when he got married. They didn't have the money to paint a layer of paint. Therefore, the white-ash putty will inevitably peel off after so many years. But Mia and her husband are very diligent, and they will take the initiative to repair these damaged parts.

There are no decent home appliances in Mia's house, the only big-ticket home appliance is a twenty-one-inch Sony color TV, which was bought by her husband when he got married.

Because Mia's husband works very hard. He is a skilled worker in the mine, and he gets a little more money than ordinary people for the work he does. So he can afford the TV. Although this TV can only receive a few local Peruvian TV stations, it is enough to make Mia proud. (Although the power supply in Cerro de Pasco is unstable, and most of the TV series are trash)

In addition, there is no commendable furniture in the home.

Although the house was barren, Mia kept the whole room clean. On the walls were portraits of her from the market, cartoons of unicorns, and drawings of animals. The sundries in the house are neatly packed.

She can do everything she can do. The economy in Cerro de Pasco was not good, and most of the men went to work in the mines. There are very few jobs for women, and there aren't many jobs for women here other than working in strip clubs and bars.

Of course, Mia knew that this place could not stay longer, because it was not suitable for living.

So she and her husband have a plan, which is to save a sum of money and get out of here. They have calculated that they need to save about 20,000 soles (Peruvian currency) to leave here and live in a new city.

Her husband works hard, and Mia grows as many fruits and vegetables as possible at home to reduce family expenses, so that they can save more money. Now they have saved almost 10,000 soles, and in a few years they will be able to save up to 20,000 soles.

Then they can move to a better city like Lima. Then find a doctor for Lina and treat her blood lead.

Lina is drawing her own paintings in the living room.

Mia is in the kitchen cooking dinner tonight, fried potatoes with scrambled eggs and some cucumbers from her garden.

She heard some movement next door, and looked through the kitchen window. The neighbor Yahana's family seemed to be in a panic. They carried their father out of the house in a hurry, and they didn't know what happened.

Mia's husband, Drew, came home a little later than usual. Mia doesn't blame him, because he needs to earn money to support his family, and it's very hard.

Drew is a strong and rough man, his voice is very hoarse, and he is generally taciturn and rarely speaks.

"My dear, it's time to eat." Mia smiled and kissed Drew. And the dinner was brought up.

Fried potatoes with scrambled eggs, and raw cucumbers. Neither Mia's nor Lina's combined plate had more than half the food on Drew's plate.

"I saw the Yahana family next door today..."

"Old Bach is dead. Blood lead poisoning, multiple organ failure. He has been struggling on the bed for a long time. He probably couldn't stand it anymore. I heard about it on the way back." Drew said indifferently The news of the death of a thirty-year-old neighbor next door seemed to be someone from another world.

"Oh." Mia dug some fried potatoes with a spoon, she was a little absent-minded: "Drew, when can we move?"

Drew took a big mouthful of fried potatoes, and then was silent for a while: "It costs a lot of money to go to Lima, and it also costs a lot of money to treat Lina. You know, I don't have any skills. I might starve to death immediately. I inquired , go to Lima to rent a house, more than 600 soles can be rented. We now have 10,000 soles, you and Lina go to Lima first, I will make more money here, and then go."

"I don't worry about you, you are here." Mia touched her husband's shoulder with her hand, but Drew seemed a little impatient.

"I'm done eating, and I'm going to visit Little Joel's house in the evening." After speaking, Drew put on his coat and walked out of the house.

Tick ​​tock.

The rain started to drip and it was raining. Drew put on the hood and looked back at the rainwater collector arranged by his wife Mia. He didn't know how to tell his wife that the air in Cerro de Pasco was full of lead dust, it filled the air. When it rains, the lead powder will fall with the rain.

Therefore, the lead content in rainwater is also exceeding the standard.

I can't stay here anymore, because I heard the news. Aurs Group is preparing to increase production.

Those Yankees don't intend to put any environmental protection equipment here. Because that costs a lot of money. Why set up environmental protection equipment? It is the land of Peru that is polluted, and it is the Peruvians who are killed. Does this have anything to do with the American Als Group? No.

The lead content here will be higher and higher in the future. I must get Lina and Mia out of here as soon as possible. just money...

Boom boom boom.

"Little Joel, it's me, Drew."

Drew rang at Joel Jr.'s house two streets away. Little Joel is also a miner, but their family is better off than himself. Because there are three members of his family working in the mine.

"Hey, Drew. You're here, come in quickly. I thought you'd be late." Little Joel let Drew into the room. He looked at the street and closed the doors after making sure there were no pursuers.

"Little Joel, I don't know what to say. I want to send Lina and Mia away, you know. But I have..."

"Lack of money?" Little Joel glanced at Drew. Little Joel looked much more handsome than Drew. He didn't look like a miner, but more like a clerk.

"Yes." Drew was not good at words, so he could only nod.

"Hey, Drew. Look, I didn't have you over my house tonight to worry about money. I told you something big was going to happen tonight. I'm sure you're A person who can keep promises, that's why I'm looking for you, are you worthy of my trust?"

Little Joel stared at Drew.

Although Drew always felt that little Joel was weird when he was working, he always believed in little Joel. Could it be that the opportunity he mentioned was an opportunity to make a fortune?

Drew nodded slowly. Although he didn't know why, he believed that Joel Jr. would not harm himself.

Little Joel laughed, and he patted Drew on the shoulder: 'Let's go. '

"Where are you going?"

"Liu Kee Restaurant."

Inside Liu Kee Hotel.

Zhang Moxuan looked at the boss Liu Fuquan in the tea room on the third floor. This is a man in his forties with a slender figure but a strong appearance.

"You are joking?"

"No, I'm not kidding. I've lived here for twenty years. I lived here before time travel, and I still live here after time travel. I know this place better than anyone else. So I know what is needed here. I also know What do I need. That's why I contacted you, Mr. Zhang. I need your help."

"But I think you're joking. You say you want a separate country here?!"

"To be precise, it's a revolution." Liu Fuquan nodded, "I want a revolution."
