MTL - Natural Disaster Apocalypse-Chapter 125

In the end, everyone calculated their family fortunes and discussed. Each family bought one hundred catties of rice, which was five hundred yuan, which is indeed a lot in terms of the current currency value, but except for Xu Ming, each family had two As a big man, even if he saves a little food, he still needs a catty of rice a day. Now there are no vegetables, and there are not many things that can replenish oil and water, so the rice can't be less.

This hoarding once is only enough for the three of them to eat for three months. Wu Zheng and his family should be able to eat for a little longer. How to start the fire, I used to eat with Yu Zibai and the others, but now the ranch provides two meals, and there is an extra meal for overtime work, almost no need to eat at home, but Xu Ming still stocked up, there is food in hand, and I don’t panic.

At present, it is Yu Zibai's family that consumes a little more. Mu Nan whispered to Jian Chu: "If your family does not have enough food, remember to tell us, don't carry it yourself, let's find a way together."

Jian Chu nodded with a smile, and said yes, but at least these few months, there shouldn't be enough to eat. Yu Zibai is already planning to plant it himself. If the pasture can grow out in a few months and the rabbits can be fed, then the conditions will improve in the future. At least, with the help of their friends, their family is living a very good life now, at least they still have a life, so they accept the kindness of their friends, but it is better not to trouble others if they can not trouble others.

Xu Ming drove the rice back by himself, and it only weighed a few hundred catties. His own car to and from work was enough to carry it. This was due to Yu Feng's relationship, so Yu Feng naturally went with him. When he came back, Xu Ming also brought it back by car. Yu Feng now lives in the fourth district. The fourth district is a small building, only five stories high. The larger apartment type is two bedrooms and one living room, and the smaller apartment type is one bedroom and one living room. Living room, Yu Feng lives alone, one room and one living room are enough.

The fourth district is not far from them, ten minutes away by bike, Xu Ming wanted to get the rice first, and then drive Yu Feng back.

Mu Nan had never seen Yu Feng before. At that time, he was taken down in a daze. Qin Huai was the one who thanked him later. After he was discharged from the hospital, he went home directly. Almost, not thick eyebrows and big eyes, but the facial features are well-rounded, there is a sense of uprightness between the eyebrows and eyes, and the smile is bright and sunny. He should be older than them, but he does not look old, but has the calmness of a mature man.

As soon as Yu Feng saw Mu Nan, he smiled and said: "It seems that the body is recovering well."

Mu Nan also smiled: "Thank you for what happened last time."

Before Mu Nan could say anything, Yu Feng waved his hand: "Hey, it's a matter of little effort, you guys made it so serious, don't say thank you, I also accepted your brother's thank you, this matter It's over, don't even think about it, so as not to leave any psychological shadow."

Qin Huai took out two cigarettes, he smelled tobacco on Yufeng, he must be a smoker, no one smokes in their yard, and he doesn't smoke himself, but he has stocked up a lot in Mu Nan's space, now At this time, Yu Feng was able to get the channels for rice grains, which proved that there should be many ways, so whether it was saving Mu Nan last time, or multiple friends with multiple ways, there is no harm in getting in the relationship.

The cigarettes are not very good, they used to be more than ten yuan a box, but when Qin Huai handed them over, Yu Feng's eyes lit up, but he restrained himself: "Farewell, farewell, this is too expensive , take it for yourself."

No matter when, this kind of spiritual food is hard currency. The three things of tobacco, wine and tea, the more difficult the life is, the more difficult and expensive it is than rice and food. It is absolutely useless to exchange a few catties of rice for just one cigarette. questionable.

Qin Huai said: "No one here smokes, and this cigarette has been left for a while, and I don't know if it's tide or not. Let's smoke it. It's a waste if you don't."

Yu Feng can say anything else, but he can't quit smoking. Of course, this is also a different occasion. He only thought about it occasionally for several months during the rescue for so long before. Yes, I really owe it, but these are all old men, and they have all been brought out, so there is no need to be hypocritical.

But he was not in a hurry to smoke, he just smelled the smell of tobacco to ease his cravings. Just now Qin Huai said that they don't smoke here, so there is no need to smoke in front of non-smokers. Some non-smokers are particularly disgusted by the smell of smoke , he still has this bit of courtesy.

Qin Huai said: "How is the situation in the planting area now?"

There is nothing that cannot be said about this matter. From his point of view, Xu Ming and the others are not the kind of people who do things out of order, and now the news has been suppressed, but it will be a matter of time before it explodes: "It should be said that it is very bad. I have already organized a batch of manual cleaning, but I can only clean up the worms with broken eggs in the soil. Many roots have a dense patch of worm eggs that cannot be removed at all. I started to try hydroponics, but the consumption of hydroponics is too high. I really can only rely on hydroponics, and there will not be many people who can eat in the future."

Mu Nan asked curiously: "Can't the high temperature kill all the bugs in the soil first? Insecticides don't work either?" The soil is not untreated, so there shouldn't be so many bugs.

Yu Feng sighed: "I wish it was that easy."

After all, this is not the small-scale potting soil cultivation at home. If a small pot of soil is cleaned and carefully guarded, the problem will not be so serious. Hundreds of acres of land, this is not a small project.

Listening to Yu Feng's description, Mu Nan's whole scalp felt numb. What kind of concept is the pile of worms under the soil? Just imagine the picture and the whole person will feel bad.

I can't help but be thankful that the soil for the things planted in his home is the nutritious soil he bought before. Now that these bugs have exploded like this, it feels like it took a whole winter to hatch. After all, these bugs can't happen for no reason. Suddenly it grew more and more, but fortunately his house didn't have so many insects.

While Xu Ming and Song Jia were unloading rice, Qin Huai and Yu Zibai were asking Yu Feng about the farm. Yu Feng knew a lot, not only about the farm, but also about parasites. The production has already started, which is much easier than the plague vaccine, but the production of the medicine is not high, because the raw materials are limited, and the hospital will be supplied first at that time, but I don’t know how much can be supplied, and now there is a lot of rush for medicine outside. There are also many scams that come from this.

Yu Feng said: "Some people go bankrupt and want to buy medicines from others. Although this deworming medicine is not like a common household product for colds and coughs, some people do have it in their homes. Those houses that have not collapsed and their items are well-preserved can be sold by selling medicines." , Even if one or two pills are profitable, some people took advantage of the loophole, and a lot of money for medicine was gone, and the medicine was gone."

No matter when, there will never be fewer such liars. When the money is in place, other people's lives are nothing.

Yu Feng told them this to make them feel better. The people in this yard are all young people with good relationships. They are in pairs, and they are afraid that something will happen to one of them, and the other will panic and be deceived. Yes, acquaintance by fate, a sentence or two of exhortations is not a big deal.

After unloading several hundred catties of rice into the garage, Xu Ming drove Yu Feng back, and everyone else got their own.

They also asked the girls before if they wanted to buy some rice together, but the girls said no, they didn’t have that much money in their hands, so they could only buy the government’s quota. Mu Nan felt that the money might be really low, but It is estimated that there should be a lot of stocks. Anyway, the girls don't seem to be in a hurry to stock up on food, so they don't have much to do.

This rice is 50 catties per bag. As I said before, this rice is considered old rice, but it must be good, because it is vacuum-packed, and it is not badly preserved. The rice is also the kind of big white rice, not very good, but not Poor, in the past, this rice cost about three to five yuan a catty.

Mu Nan and Qin Huai went home with a bag alone: ​​"Brother, have you calculated how much rice we eat in a month?"

Qin Huai said: "It's hard to count, but it's about 30 catties. We don't eat rice every day, but we eat a lot of it. Ordinary bowls of rice are at least two bowls per person, and there are two meals a day. It's a catty."

The main reason is that they don't eat every day. Sometimes they eat hot pot, barbecue, and barbecue, and even some time-consuming dishes, such as shrimp, big bone, and some salt and pepper ribs, charcoal-grilled lamb chops, etc. Nan doesn't like to eat it with rice, but prefers to eat it raw with a drink, so the amount of rice consumed by their family in a month is really not easy to calculate.

After the two of them carried the rice into the house, Mu Nan directly put it into the space. Let's put this kind of rice, which is neither good nor bad, first. Qin Huai bought a lot of rice, and they were all good rice. I don’t have the habit of eating the bad ones before eating the good ones. These days, one meal is one less meal. If there is something good that you want to eat, you can eat it quickly. If you don’t have a chance to eat it later, Isn't it a pity.

Probably frightened by what Yu Feng said just now, after looking at the little rabbit, Mu Nan ran to dig the soil. Fortunately, their soil was prepared before the end of the world, and it was planted at home. Suffering from mosquitoes, I looked at several vegetable pots, but none of the insects Yu Feng mentioned was found in them, and the vegetable roots were not full of insect eggs.

"Fortunately, fortunately, if there are bugs, I don't want these things anymore."

Qin Huai watered the vegetable pot beside him, and even the water was filtered, which further reduced the possibility of worms: "Maybe in the future, these worms will become the most food for people."

Mu Nan shook his head almost shaking his head: "I don't want it, I'd rather starve to death!"

Qin Huai laughed when he heard the words: "Then it really smells good?"

Mu Nan rolled her eyes: "Don't worry, it will never be really fragrant!"

Mu Nan and his family don't have bugs, but Song Jia's family is miserable. Fortunately, Song Jia and Wu Zheng are either afraid of bugs, or they are disgusting, especially Song Jia has been infected, and it is even more disgusting. The grubs that were as thick as a finger and the ones that were not as big as a fingernail were dug out from the soil and thrown into the bucket. Song Jia couldn't see the scene at all.

"What should I do, I can't stand it anymore, why don't I plant it?"

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "What's the matter? It doesn't bite people. We don't have many soil pots in our house. We turn them over a few times a day and they can always be cleaned up. Unlike the farm, where they are planted directly in the ground. That bug is of course very difficult to clean up."

Song Jia rubbed her arms: "Stop talking, I'm going to die!"

Wu Zheng continued to laugh, then looked at Niu Niu who was watching him digging the soil curiously, and asked, "Niu Niu, do you eat meat?"

Niuniu tilted her head and let out a whimper.

Of course, it is impossible to feed dogs. Who knows whether this kind of bugs can be eaten now, but Wu Zheng still built a fire in the yard, and directly threw the cleaned up fat bugs into it and burned them. The smell of burning protein is quite attractive.

Mu Nan leaned on the balcony and looked down for a while, but only for a while, because it was too hot, as he entered the room, he said to Qin Huai, "Don't mention it, it smells good when it burns."

Qin Huai smiled and said, "The Law of True Fragrance?"

Mu Nan clicked his tongue in distaste: "I will never be really fond of creatures like worms!"

Originally thought that Qin Huai's talk about eating bugs was just talking, or it would happen in a long time, after all, the food is still in supply, but unexpectedly, there will be deep-fried products online soon, and the name is actually obtained Directly, it is called fried protein, and there is one catty in a pack. Maybe in order for people to eat it, the bugs are all processed. Instead of frying a whole one directly, it is cut into cubes.

It may not be easy to cut into cubes before, but now, those grubs are so fat that they can be as big as the palm of an adult. Once all these are fried, the original shape cannot be seen, but it will be introduced below. Introduce the name, appearance, and even the function of use, as well as the distinction between grubs.

There are actually differences in this kind of insects. Some like to eat roots, and some like to eat rotten things. Of course, the ones that are promoted now all eat roots. It is said that some of these insects can also be used as medicine. Good, unacceptable, disgusting even at a glance.

Although this needs to be deep-fried, and there are even plenty of seasonings, such as cumin, salt and pepper, chili powder, etc., but a pack is very cheap, it only costs 50 cents per catty, and you can buy three catties for one dollar.

Mu Nan originally thought that there would be no market for this kind of thing when the parasites broke out. After all, people have already talked about the worms, and many people who are infected with parasites have no medicine and are in pain in the hospital. It's life and death.

But seeing the icon that sold out soon, Mu Nan turned to look at Qin Huai: "I was naive."

Qin Huai pulled the man into his arms: "Would you like to buy a pack and try it?"

Mu Nan shook his head frantically, they are not short of meat, they are not worth it!

Facts have proved that as long as it is edible, even if the population is greatly reduced now, it can still be eaten from flooding to artificial breeding. Not to mention, the chickens, ducks and geese on the farm are now short of food, but this will increase the labor cost, because it needs to be cleaned out from the soil bit by bit, but now labor is the most valuable, but Also the least expensive.

Wu Zheng is still in the group with Aite Munan and Yu Zibai: "Don't throw away the bugs that have been cleared from the soil of your house."

Mu Nan: "???"

Yu Zibai: "Want to eat?"

Song Jia sent a crying emoji: "My brother wants to feed Niuniu."

The ones that were cleared up for the first time were burned. There was no such thing for sale outside at the time, and they didn’t know if it could be eaten. Now that they know that it can be eaten, it must not be wasted. Niuniu has been with them for the past two years. There is no such condition to eat two bites. Now that this can be eaten, they don't have chickens and ducks to raise here, and rabbits don't eat it. Of course, it is deep-fried and fed to Niuniu.

Mu Nan looked at Qin Huai distressedly: "What if we don't have insects in our house?" Now the soil outside is full of these insects, and their house doesn't have any, would it be a bit strange.

Qin Huai took Mu Nan's phone and replied: "It's too late, the bugs in my house have been cleaned up."

Wu Zheng sent a regretful emoji.

Qin Huai returned the phone to Mu Nan, Mu Nan: "That's it?"

Qin Huai: "Otherwise?"

Mu Nan rubbed his nose, okay, otherwise, they couldn't make bugs.

Before putting down the phone, Mu Nan heard the sound of the money arriving in the account. He quickly clicked on it and said happily, "I've made money. Although it's only eight yuan, it's a good start. My manga can be serialized for a long time. Well, when there are more and more serials in the future, sooner or later you can earn ten, twenty, or one hundred yuan a month!"

For Mu Nan, Qin Huai never hesitated to praise him: "Nan Nan is awesome, a little cartoonist."

Mu Nan was a little embarrassed by the praise, seeing Qin Huai typing a bunch of characters he didn't know, said: "What are you doing?"

Qin Huai: "As a game maker, there will be several mini-games coming online soon, including the snake-eating one I made for you earlier."

Mu Nan leaned against Qin Huai and watched him typing on the computer: "Doesn't the game require a server, and we don't have a server."

Qin Huai said: "We don't have it, but the military does. I talked to them when I left. There are two forms. One is to rent their servers, and the other is to cooperate. They I will distribute the server and subsequent maintenance, I will distribute the game, and the revenue will be shared."

Mu Nan asked, "Then which one do you choose?"

Qin Huai: "It's easier to divide the money. I only need to take out the finished games, and we don't need to worry about the rest. Although the money won't be a lot, it saves time. Anyway, enough food and drink are enough. Now they develop I have opened a few game areas, and the download volume is not small, so the income should not be too bad."

Now because a lot of equipment is in the hands of the government, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all problems, and there are not many spiritual entertainments, but if life can stabilize the status quo and gradually improve, people will soon target business opportunities, and all walks of life will gradually develop. It is impossible to rely on the government for everything. Only when the people themselves develop can life improve.

It is said that there are already people who want to contract farms to open up wasteland. Those who have saved a lot of money before, or those who cooperate with multiple people, have already started to act. Many private farms are recruiting people, as well as the real estate industry, buying land to build houses , although the government is now strictly controlling the price of housing rentals, this is a long-term development.

Many people say that the era of gold digging is coming again, and there are precedents for the predecessors, as long as you seize the opportunity, you don't have to bother to study anything, and you can follow the path of getting rich in the 1970s and 1980s again.

But these have nothing to do with Qin Huai. If he wants to do it, he can do it more smoothly than everyone else, because even if there are footsteps of the predecessors, it is not as fast as he directly takes ready-made things, but Qin Huai Without this idea, even doing some small games is just to pass the time.

In the past, he was also ambitious. He had felt the oppression of money and power over the law, the humiliation of being forced to bend his spine by a penny, and the turmoil of wealth and poverty in this impetuous society. There is a good saying that when you stand on the top of the mountain, you can see goodness everywhere you look.

Qin Huai's biggest ambition is to build an ivory tower that can make Mu Nan happy and worry-free all his life. To be happy and worry-free, he must first have money, and secondly, he must have power. This is why he cooperated with others after returning from abroad. The original intention of developing the company.

But now he doesn't think so. There are many opportunities to get rich now. As long as he works hard to catch them, he will become a cutting-edge existence in ten or twenty years. However, such efforts are not equal. Putting the cart before the horse, how much time can he squeeze out to spend with his lover when he puts all that time and experience into the development of his career.

So even though the road ahead was full of gold, he didn't bother to pick it up, because to pick up gold, he could only let go of Mu Nan's hand.

Mu Nan, who had no idea what Qin Huai was thinking, applauded appreciatively: "Brother is great, so we can both sit at home and make money in the future!"

For Mu Nan, it is the most comfortable day to wake up naturally without the wind and sun, without the pressure of life. I am worried every day, but the happiness index is still high now.

"Now I'm making money from my craftsmanship. I didn't count selling rabbits before. Isn't it worth having a small barbecue to celebrate?"

Qin Huai looked into Mu Nan's shining eyes, and before he could compromise, he received a message from Zhou Chuanghong.

Mu Nan stretched his head to look, and saw the message that Pang Pang died. Although he didn't know Pang Pang, he should be Qin Huai's colleague. The joy of making money just now disappeared instantly: "Brother?"

Qin Huai rubbed his hair, and replied: "What's going on?"

Zhou Chuanghong: "Parasitic infection, a person weighing 180 kg was dragged away from the hospital, and he lost less than 120 kg. After suffering for half a month, the hospital called just now to say that he had left. "

Qin Huai: "Does he have any family members?"

It took a while for Zhou Chuanghong to reply: "Both parents are here, and there is a younger brother, but the younger brother is already an adult."

Qin Huai said: "If you want to donate money to the white bag, you can tell me when the time comes."

The white bag is a gift bag for funerals, but now I don't know whether to give it or not. After all, every family is poor, and it is not easy to have no money or food.

Zhou Chuanghong responded and stopped talking, Mu Nan leaned on Qin Huai's body: "Colleague?"

Qin Huai hummed: "A kid with pretty good talent. He's not very young, about your age. He loves to eat, but he's very capable, but he doesn't have any ambitions. I wanted to train him well. Smiling, he came to my side as soon as it was time for dinner. Most of the sauerkraut you brought me for dinner went into his mouth. Although he is greedy, he is also sensible, no matter how greedy he is, he will not look for me I want meat, although every time I smell the smell of meat, my saliva really flows out, it's a pity."

Mu Nan hugged Qin Huai without saying a word. In these days, every day she is alive is worth being grateful for.
