Chapter 508 The Beginning of the Fourth Year of the Apocalypse
"Ah?" Jing Shu was a little stunned for a moment, and looked around. Jing's grandmother was indeed only talking to her.
Jing Shu took a sip of the sour plum soup with some embarrassment, and pursed her lips again, looking around. Jing's father was busy as the head of the livestock farm, and Jing's mother was busy every day since she was promoted to the department head. Wu Youai and her mentor have been studying the formula of synthetic meat in Shiyuan every day recently. Third aunt has no time at all, and now she is the only idle person at home.
"Grandma, why do you want to go back to Wu County for the New Year? It's also good to spend the New Year in Wucheng. Didn't we agree to bring everyone here to spend the New Year?" Jing Shu frowned slightly. At this juncture, she was afraid that she could not go back to Wu County for the New Year. There would be disasters next. It was about to enter the fourth year of the apocalypse.
Although she was well prepared, it was limited to the villa. If she ran around, she could not guarantee everyone's safety. Whether she drove there or drove back, when the mudslide rushed, even the most powerful RV would be trapped.
While scattering the feed, Jing Nai also checked the cub like a treasure to see if there was anything wrong, and said: "Nothing, I just miss going home for too long. Also, let's spend the New Year in Wucheng." Jing Nai hesitated.
"What's wrong?" Jing Shu asked.
Jing Nai looked around carefully, and then said: "The weather is getting colder and the food is getting more scarce. Your eldest aunt's family is afraid of causing trouble for us. How much food will be wasted if everyone comes to eat and drink, so they don't want to come. Your second uncle's family is afraid that they can't get any advantage, so they want to eat and drink for free, and then waste things. If someone leaks the news, we will be targeted."
Yes, seeing that food is getting more and more scarce, even the pockets of corrupt officials are deflated, and the people feel a sense of crisis. Even those who show off chickens and ducks have become low-key.
Jingshu smiled and said, "Grandma, your worry is necessary, I understand, then we should make three rules with them in advance, and I will also make full preparations to ensure that the things you worry about will not happen, you can just wait for a good New Year this year!"
Next year, there will be no New Year. Jingshu couldn't help but narrow her eyes and recalled the scene of shivering and looking for food during the migration next year. This year is the last year for everyone to breathe, and then they will face the real challenge of the end of the world, and Jingshu really doesn't have much time left.
"Hey! Oh, it's almost twelve o'clock. I have to cook quickly. I'm so busy every day." Grandma Jing washed her hands and wiped them on her legs and hurried into the kitchen. Grandpa Jing nagging on the side: "Wash your hands with a towel, okay? Look, that lump is all rubbed shiny by you."
"Hey." Jingshu also sighed quietly and fell into deep thought again. One of the reasons for her troubles is that she has no money! Not only did he have no money, he also owed millions to Zhengfu
Who would have thought that a big boss who opened a factory with thousands of employees, managed a garbage dump, and had various side businesses would be out of money and in debt? Jingshu never dreamed that after everything was on the right track, she would owe even more debt.
This is also a bitter tear. It was not easy for the red nematode factory to start earning money, but in order to prevent mudslides, it had to continue to do engineering. In order to increase the storage of red nematodes, the scale of the factory had to be increased. Therefore, a series of measures were taken during this period. Qian Duoduo bought a large number of boulders and various materials again to truly turn the red nematode factory into a closed armed factory.
However, no matter whether it was political corruption or money, Jingshu could understand why she spent a lot of money to build a closed red nematode factory. As the factory grew bigger, it eventually attracted a group of fugitives without identity to come and rob. The group of people was just like the one they encountered on the day when their elder sister-in-law married her daughter-in-law. They had wooden warehouses, kerosene bottles, black gunpowder, and weapons such as bows and arrows they made themselves. They also drove a pickup truck loaded with goods, and it seemed that they were going to rob several tons of goods.
Although a single red nematode cake is not worth much, a few trucks of nematode cakes are still very valuable.
Fortunately, Jingshu's factory had been prepared for a long time, and the armed forces were not bad. With a high reward, the factory was defended. Seeing that they could not take it down for a long time, the other party left a few bodies and evacuated. The factory did not suffer much loss, but it did ring the alarm bell for Jingshu and gave Jingshu a better excuse to continue to arm the red nematode factory.
"That group of people are hiding around us. The identities of the few bodies left behind have been found, but there is no connection between them."
"They have dual identities. They live their own lives and have their own organizations in secret."
"It is difficult to catch them, and even difficult to find them. In order to supply energy for the artificial sun, the satellite system and monitoring system have been stopped. In addition, the big data does not have the information of these people. Once they run away, it will be like looking for a needle in a haystack."
This is the conclusion given by Jingshu after asking Hengjin to investigate him, but Jingshu did not give up. These people may come a second time, especially when everyone is out of ammunition and food and hungry.
When she opened this factory, Jingshu anticipated this step. Sooner or later, someone would be jealous of the inconspicuous insect cake factory, so she made various preparations.
If the disasters in the first few years of the end of the world came like a storm, which was terrifying and frightening, then among all the disasters in so many years, only the disaster in the fourth year came the most quietly. It was like spring rain that moistened everything silently, and people could not feel it at all. It would slowly erode everything.
When she noticed it, it was already too late.
The flood in the second year submerged so much supplies and caused the loss of so much property. The mudslide in the fourth year completely shattered the last bit of hope and it will erode the entire earth!
"It's here. It turns out that the fourth year of the apocalypse has started so early." Jingshu stood on the top of the mountain behind the villa, gently touching the mud that slowly seeped out from it. It was like water at more than 90 degrees, about to boil.
Now it has not attracted anyone's attention. Everyone is still celebrating the end of the earthquake. No one would think that in such cold weather, why the mud on the ground is not frozen.
"Let's go, go home!" Jingshu wrapped in a heavy cotton jacket exhaled, called Fatty Chicken, turned her head and ran down the mountain. Fatty Chicken hung his head and was not very happy. It has been several days. The owner has to run from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain. I don't know why, but it can't find anything to eat. Those delicious insects, even the owner's disgusting corpse worms are gone.
Disappeared.
The whole mountain was quiet, dark and silent.
Fatty Chicken shuddered. It always felt a sense of danger, and it couldn't tell. It seemed that something was coming out.
There are still scattered tents and traces of human habitation at the foot of the mountain. Since there have been no earthquakes, the people have been divided back and the Banana Community is full of people again.
"You still want to go out in such a cold weather, be careful not to freeze!" Jing's mother handed over a cup of hot milk dissatisfiedly, and looked at Jingshu whose nose was red from the cold, and felt distressed, "Your physique is prone to sores, don't run around anymore, your grandma will ask you, it's almost the New Year, what are your arrangements."
Waited for a long time~~~
