Chapter 56: The Reborn Woman in the Frozen Apocalypse Stockpiles Supplies in Advance (6)
Now that it's the end of the world, Liu Qingxue is very angry and resentful, but she only dares to continue hiding.
These people might die in the apocalypse themselves.
Because the authorities had given prior notice, most people were prepared that evening.
Only some people who didn't take it seriously, thinking that a minor cold snap was nothing to worry about, were unprepared.
They think others are idiots. In this sweltering heat, wouldn't it be more comfortable if the temperature dropped? Why would they buy down jackets in the name of a cold wave? They're incredibly stupid.
He learned his lesson immediately and was frozen senseless.
Most people stayed home and didn't go out.
However, some people insist on doing the opposite.
They insist on going outside.
There are also people who work the night shift and sell late-night snacks, who still insist on going out to make a living.
The next day, everyone discovered that the people outside had turned into ice sculptures.
Only then did everyone realize just how low the temperature of this cold wave really was.
No wonder the authorities have been emphasizing this issue, telling everyone absolutely not to go out, because people could really die.
Although it's cold at home, wearing down jackets, covering ourselves with blankets, and some even have heaters on and hot water bottles, we can still bear it.
Those who have food stored at home can stay home and wait for the cold wave to pass.
However, some people did not stockpile food in time.
We have no choice but to go out and purchase supplies.
But when you open the door, a blast of cold wind hits you, chilling you to the bone.
Stepping outside, one is immediately immersed in a world of ice and snow.
Everywhere you look is ice and snow.
I bought some supplies at the small supermarket and convenience store at the entrance of the residential area.
Even though the prices of supplies have doubled, we still have to buy them.
There's no need to look elsewhere; everything has definitely gone up in price by now.
It's unclear when this cold wave will subside, so officials are urging everyone to stock up on food and stay home.
It looks like this will last for a few days.
It was so cold that I couldn't stay outside for long, so I bought the supplies and rushed home.
The supplies in small supermarkets and convenience stores quickly dwindled.
However, due to the freezing weather, it was impossible to get supplies.
The owner kept some supplies for himself and chose to temporarily close the store.
Let's wait until the cold wave passes before opening the store.
If everything is sold out, I'll go hungry.
"Dinner's ready! We're having beef hot pot today."
"On such a cold day, we need to eat something hot."
Jiang He sat around the dining table with her parents, enjoying a hot beef hot pot.
"It's been a long time since we ate together."
Jiang He's father is usually very busy with work and often works overtime until late at night.
Jiang He's mother is a nurse who often works the night shift.
At Jiang He's insistence, her father did not work overtime and went home early.
My mother was originally scheduled to work the day shift, but when a colleague wanted to switch shifts with her, she refused.
Otherwise, when the cold wave comes, Dad will be stuck at the company and Mom will be stuck in the hospital.
Now both Mom and Dad have stayed at home, and the three of them are together.
"Thank goodness Xiaohe prepared so many supplies, so we were able to enjoy such a delicious hot pot."
Her parents were very busy, so they left the task of stockpiling supplies entirely to Jiang He.
"Xiao He has grown up."
It wasn't until after the cold wave arrived that Jiang He's parents realized how well-prepared she had been.
A week later, the supplies that had been stockpiled were almost gone. After all, even if one were to stockpile supplies, one wouldn't stockpile too much.
You can stock up on rice, flour, and cooking oil in large quantities, enough for several months.
However, other vegetables and fruits are only prepared for a few days, and at most for a month.
But the cold wave showed no signs of abating.
It's still freezing cold outside, what can we do?
Just when everyone was worried, the authorities released a message announcing the locations of the supply depots.
You can go to the nearest supply depot to replenish your supplies.
You can collect supplies once every ten days.
Supplies are scarce, but if we eat sparingly, we can survive for ten days.
These are all prepared by the official team.
This apocalypse will last at least a year, and the entire world will be frozen, making it impossible to find outside help.
Therefore, although the authorities have prepared a large amount of supplies, they should still use them sparingly.
The post-apocalyptic reconstruction will also require a large amount of supplies.
The land has been frozen for a year, and it's unknown how long it will take before it can be planted again.
Everyone was very grateful; the authorities had considered everything so thoroughly.
Knowing they were short of supplies, they came to rescue them.
The group went out in a line to the supply depot.
You can collect supplies by presenting your ID card.
Although each set of supplies doesn't contain much, it's free, so we can't ask for much more.
If you want the best, then find a way to buy it yourself.
Although the conditions outside are harsh, if you take precautions to keep warm, you can stay outside for a short while without turning into an ice sculpture immediately.
However, it will take a long time to recover after returning home.
Some people, unafraid of death or the cold, have taken up the business of buying and selling goods on behalf of others.
Some people have hoarded large quantities of supplies.
This will be announced, and the item can be sold at a high price.
If you need any supplies, just place an order and they will send someone to deliver them to your door.
However, that price is extremely high.
After all, there are significant risks involved in door-to-door delivery.
Indeed, there are some people who are willing to pay high prices to buy supplies.
Some people are willing to deliver goods to earn this high wage.
The authorities were somewhat relieved to see that the situation had temporarily stabilized.
At least it wasn't like in other countries, where many people died on the first day, and later there was turmoil, with many small countries being wiped out.
However, we dare not let our guard down.
The apocalypse in my dream lasted for a year, which wasn't a very long time, but it wasn't short either.
In particular, the general public is unaware of the truth.
Right now, we just think of this as a slightly more severe cold wave. With supplies available, everyone is treating it as a holiday at home, taking a good rest.
Everyone thought the cold wave would pass soon.
A month from now, everyone's mindset will be very different from what it is now.
Moreover, the main reason it's still stable is that there haven't been any water, power, or internet outages.
But this is bound to happen.
The conditions outside are so harsh that if something goes wrong, it can't be repaired.
Even if a lot of manpower and resources are spent to repair it, it will break down again very quickly.
Back then, staying at home was like being in prison.
Mindset can also change.
Facing a disaster and facing the end of the world are two completely different mindsets.
That will be the real challenge: how to keep everyone calm and focused.
Broadcasts were transmitted to various places, and later, when power and internet were cut off, broadcasting became an important way to obtain information.
Moreover, the authorities also conducted a rehearsal of power outages, water outages, and internet outages in advance.
This indicates that this situation occurs frequently during cold waves.
Prepare more entertainment options and don't rely too much on electronic devices like mobile phones and computers.
Some people have prepared several power banks for themselves, including a solar-powered one.
Despite the cold wave, the sun still rose in the east and set in the west as usual.
I also downloaded a lot of movies and TV series.
There are also homemade card games.
