Chapter 184:
When they met the next day, without waiting for Qin Huai to ask, Shi Yuanfei directly mentioned several former port cities: "These places have been submerged in the sea now."
These words kept Qin Huai silent for a while before he opened his mouth: "What about the infection in the sea area? Is there any result?"
Speaking of this, Shi Yuanfei\'s face became even more ugly: "Perhaps, this will be an extinction."
Some infectious diseases on land are difficult to control, and in the sea, they have almost no effective means to prevent the spread of prions in the sea.
When Qin Huai returned home, Mu Nan had just washed some dishes. He thought that if Qin Huai came back early, he would prepare the preparatory work, and when Qin Huai came back, he could directly fry them. If he came back late, he would put away the dishes. Enter the space, just eat the ready-made food. Seeing Qin Huai\'s expression is not right now, he couldn\'t help but panic and said, "Brother? Did something happen again?"
Qin Huai shook his head: "I\'m fine for now."
Mu Nan: "For now?"
Qin Huai hummed: "This year\'s winter is coming soon, and a cold air flow has been predicted from above, so we have to prepare things for the winter as soon as possible."
"How fast is as soon as possible?"
Qin Huai: "Three to five days."
What can they prepare in three to five days, but they have already prepared some things for the winter and put them in the garage. Can burn the stove.
But I have to tell Jian Chu and the others about this in advance. If it is too cold, the noodle shop that just opened may have to close for the winter. Fortunately, it was clearly written on it when I rented the shop. If the manpower is uncontrollable Reasons, such as extreme cold and extreme heat, make the store unable to open for business, and the rent of the store will be reduced or exempted.
Otherwise, according to the previous winter, you can\'t go out at all for half a year in the cold. Wouldn\'t it be a loss to rent a shop to do business in this situation?
But if it\'s just a matter of winter, then Shi Yuanfei doesn\'t need to make a special trip to Qinhuai, can\'t he just contact him on his mobile phone? Not everyone can buy gas now, so going out will cost a lot of gas.
"Is that all? Nothing else?"
Qin Huai said: "Yes, but that\'s not what\'s happening now. You know about the pollution of the sea area. It\'s more serious than what we\'ve learned before. In addition, there are still several cities that have been submerged by sea water. Now the glaciers are still there. It has not completely melted, but it is estimated that it will not be a few years, and by then, many countries that used to exist will no longer exist, and our side may also become part of the ocean."
The melting of glaciers has been a commonplace thing before the end of the world, but it is powerless to stop it. Now, this hot year-round high temperature of 60 to 70 degrees has accelerated the speed of melting. However, with the melting of glaciers The impact in the future will not only be the influx of ancient viruses by seawater, but also more chaotic global warming.
Mu Nan couldn\'t imagine what the world would be like when all the glaciers melted, and where they could escape.
Qin Huai rubbed Mu Nan\'s head: "Don\'t worry about this, the news we can get, the higher-ups have already known, maybe a secret refuge base has already started construction, maybe it\'s underground, maybe it\'s on the bottom of the sea, even if it\'s true No, then everyone is the same, and there is nothing to be afraid of."
Hearing these things, Mu Nan didn\'t even have the appetite to eat, and couldn\'t help but take out the map to look at it: "If the sea floods back, where can we go? Can our country survive?"
Qin Huai directly put the map that he had just taken out and rolled it aside: "What can you tell from your unqualified geography knowledge, don\'t worry, I\'m here."
Mu Nan sighed sadly, yesterday he said that he hoped that life would go on slowly and steadily, but he heard the news today, although it didn\'t happen suddenly, and it wasn\'t an imminent disaster, but this kind of The catastrophe that has been foreseen is really frightening.
After the meal, Mu Nan strolled down to the shop accompanied by Qin Huai. There were no customers in the shop. At a glance, there were only two people eating noodles. Jian Chu and Song Jia were discussing, next time, they should ask the cornmeal shop. For the price, they have a wall-breaking machine. When the time comes, buy the corn rough noodles and use the wall-breaking machine to make more, and make some corn cakes and sell them together.
It can\'t be completely limited to pasta, it won\'t make any money at all, and they are going to ask Mu Nan\'s family how much kimchi they can provide, and then they can make kimchi cakes for sale, which is more likely to sell more than simply selling noodles.
This noodle press machine can also press dumpling wrappers, and it is also possible to sell some vegetarian dumplings and wontons.
If you think about it casually, you can develop a lot of ways to make money, and you suddenly feel that tomorrow is even more exciting.
However, Mu Nan poured a basin of cold water directly on their heads: "Winter is coming."
Song Jia: "Ah..."
Jian Chu frowned: "Where did the news come from? It\'s so hot now. I looked at the official weather platform today, and it was 57 degrees. Under the sun, it might be 70 or 80 degrees. It\'s not cool at all."
Mu Nan: "My brother got the news from Shi Yuanfei. It\'s just a few days. I just don\'t know when the heavy snow will fall. If the road is not blocked by heavy snow, maybe the shop can still open for a while, and the weather is cold. The noodle shop business It should be better, with hot soup and hot noodles, those who are off work may want to come and eat a bowl more."
Although the current water restriction makes it more difficult to use water, the weather is too hot. Even if there is an air conditioner in the store, even the breath is full of fire. It\'s hard to make people have an appetite. If the weather is cold, then the situation is different. If you work outside for a day and see the steaming hot noodle soup, you really want to have a bowl.
Song Jia was more worried about water than they were about business: "If winter comes, will our well be able to pressurize water?"
They didn\'t have a well in the previous winter, so they don\'t know if the well can still be used when the temperature is so low. If winter comes and the well can\'t be used, what should they do with the water?
Jian Chu: "Why don\'t we build a heating room at the well? Heating in winter and shading in summer."
Mu Nan: "What about electricity?"
OK, here\'s another question.
It’s easy to talk about other things, but coal still needs to be stocked up before winter comes, and they have received news in advance that not many people may know about the coming of winter, so it’s hot now until five o’clock every day. Sixty degrees, long past the time of last winter, many people think that maybe this year will be another year without cold winter.
Now is the time to stockpile coal.
Mu Nan and his family didn\'t follow suit. They had already bought a lot last time, and there was so much in Mu Nan\'s space that there was no need to buy any more. Besides, he and Qin Huai didn\'t have much money left, even the money he earned from serializing comics. Some time ago, all the money was withdrawn and used. It is really poor.
Although they did not stockpile coal, it took two days to transfer the coal that had been stockpiled on the first floor to the garage, and then cleaned the first floor inside and out.
The business in the store is not busy, so it is enough to leave Song Jia there to help Jian Chu, so Yu Zibai specially took two days off to clean the heating kang on the first floor with Qin Huai and the others, it was very convenient When winter comes, you can burn the kang at any time.
While Wu Zheng was resting, Song Jia stayed at home and cleaned with his brother. Cai Wentao brought Xiao Zhu over to play with Niu Niu during his rest. The family is not suitable, and the composition of the family population is too complicated. If you want to sleep all the kangs, you have to make three kangs.
In the end, Guo Hui did it himself, and directly made a Datong shop on the first floor, just a big kang, and then covered it with a curtain. The men slept on one side, and the women slept on the other side, but I don’t know when the temperature will drop. Is it the same as before? It dropped suddenly like that and then the power was cut off by the blizzard, so the Cai family specially asked Qin Huai and Wu Zheng to come over to help with the kang, because they were afraid that people would be caught off guard by the cooling, so they tried their best to complete the work as soon as possible.
What Wu Zheng and the others didn\'t expect was that Guo Hui turned out to be a kang veteran, much better than what they had found out by themselves.
Wu Zheng also sighed: "If you could have come here sooner, we could have saved a lot of materials. The bricks and mud are all money."
Guo Hui smiled and said: "In the past, my father\'s generation went to the countryside knowingly, and then stayed in the local area. It was too cold in winter, so I made a kang by myself. I grew up on a kang, nothing else, just this thing Son, you can coil it up with your eyes closed."
On the day Cai\'s kang was completed, the temperature dropped suddenly.
When Qin Huai and Wu Zheng went to Cai\'s house, it was still extremely hot, and they didn\'t feel cold until the work was finally finished.
Before they went out, Mu Nan came over with clothes: "It\'s getting colder outside." He said and passed a coat to Wu Zheng.
Wu Zheng said: "No need, the cooling didn\'t drop much, just run back."
As a result, as soon as the door was opened, a gust of cold wind that made people shiver with cold rushed towards them.
Mu Nan smiled and handed him the clothes: "Don\'t catch a cold, it\'s even worse if you catch a cold."
Although the temperature drop last year did not come gradually, but it is not so sudden that it will not drop so much. This winter will either not come for a long time, and there will be a wave of strong cooling when it comes. In addition, there is no sun at night, and it is even colder. .
Wu Zheng didn\'t insist either. Although it took only three minutes to run home from here, it wouldn\'t be worthwhile if he caught a cold for these three minutes.
When the temperature dropped, the heating in the house was turned on immediately, but the heating didn\'t come on so quickly. I just hope that with the experience of the last cold winter this time, the power consumption can last longer.
But what people didn\'t expect is that the biggest problem in this cold winter is not electricity, but water.
This winter is cold, but it has always been low temperature and dry and cold. It can be frozen everywhere, but it just doesn\'t snow!
