Doomsday profiteer

Chapter 190
Just when Pang Panghai was happy about the new banknotes, large snowflakes fell from the sky.

Busy, he raised his head in astonishment, looking at the large snowflakes, he didn't know how to react for a while.

Strangely, when the heavy snow fell, the temperature dropped suddenly and became colder.

Whether indoors or outdoors, the biting coldness keeps drilling into the body, as if it is freezing the bone marrow.

Many people were so cold that their bones ached and they had to start thinking of ways.

Soon, they were looking at anything that could be burned for warmth, such as those wooden tables and chairs.

At first they were hesitant to do anything, but they couldn't resist the cold after all.Gradually, flickering fires lit up in many rooms.

At this moment, many people erupted with great strength. Even women with weak bodies raised heavy axes, chopped unused furniture into pieces, carefully put them into soup pots and ignited them, and made simple roasts. stove.

The goose feather-like snow lasts for several days at a time. When it snows, the dark clouds cover the sky, the sky is dim, but the snow on the ground reflects pale light, forming a sharp contrast with the dim sky.

Due to the continuous heavy snow, all outdoor fortifications, such as the construction of fences, have been suspended.The weather outside is too cold and the snow is too heavy. People will be covered in snow soon after staying outside and their whole bodies will be frozen.

As soon as the fortifications stopped, many people in the base became anxious, especially those workers.

Their family is already running out of food, and without their jobs, they have no income, which is a very heavy blow to them and will make their difficult situation even worse!

People who have experienced the tide of alien species are even more flustered. Many people in the base are looking forward to the wall built to resist the alien species. Once the fortification of the wall stops, they can't help but panic. They are afraid that the tide of alien species will appear again and rush into this small safe. base.

Many people went directly to Pang Pang Hai, and Pang Pang Hai was very annoyed. When he was entangled by them, his heart also flustered.

He hurried to Lan Ke and asked her for help.

"Sister Lan, what do you think we should do now? Everyone says the weather is too cold, even if we stay at home wrapped in blankets, we can't bear the cold, and we dare not sleep at night, for fear that we won't be able to wake up after falling asleep.

There are also those workers who say that they cannot survive without jobs, and hope that the base can help them out.I know we're not doing charity, but there are so many people who have to figure it out, and they can't just sit around all day. "

As soon as Lan Ke's eyes moved, Jun Tianheng handed her a cup of hot tea and put it in her hand.Since that time, he has been used to occupying the position next to Lan Ke and serving her tea.

Lan Ke was not used to it at first, but gradually got used to it.

I have to say that this kind of life of being served by others is too comfortable, no wonder so many people are obsessed with power.No matter what she wanted, Jun Tianheng could deliver it to her in time, and she couldn't help but fall.

The tea was still hot and the temperature was just right. Lan Ke took a sip and immediately narrowed his eyes comfortably.

Then, she lazily looked at Pang Pang Hai: "Pang Pang Hai, why have you become so stupid recently?"

Pang Pang Hai's eyes widened in astonishment, and he couldn't help but start to reflect, has he really become stupid recently?

Lan Ke continued: "There is so much snow outside, don't you have any idea?"

Pang Dahai was still at a loss, apparently not understanding Lan Ke's meaning.

Lan Ke sighed helplessly and looked at him with indifference: "How did you learn physics in elementary school? What happens to the snow after it melts? What happens to the snow when it freezes? Have you forgotten it?"

She said it so clearly, it would be really stupid for Pang Pang Hai not to understand.

He couldn't help but slapped his head hard: "I'm really stupid, I didn't even think of such a simple truth! Sister Lan, you mean, this snow can be turned into water resources in the base, and also It can be used to build a wall, right?”

"With the current weather, this snow won't melt for a while, so it can be put to good use. There has never been much water in the base, so wouldn't it be great to have all this snow now? You can arrange for people to collect the snow outside, and then put it to use Collect all the combustibles nearby, be careful when collecting them, don’t burn everything, think more about it later.”

Lan Ke paused at this point, seeing the suddenly enlightened Pang Hai, she knew that she didn't need to continue talking.

It's not that Pang Dahai is really stupid, it's just that he didn't expect for a while, now that she has given him some guidance, he can do the rest by himself.

Sure enough, Pang Pang Hai didn't ask any further questions, and left in a hurry.

The base chief has too many things to deal with, he has to rush back to the office, where there are still many things waiting for him to deal with.

On the way back, Pang Pang Hai couldn't help but shook his head thinking of Lan Ke who was served comfortably by Jun Tianheng.

He was definitely out of his mind at the beginning, so he was so moved because Lan Ke asked him to be the base chief!
Of course, no matter how tired the base chief is, he would never give it up to others.Fighting and killing is not his strong point, and the position of base chief is suitable for him.

Pang Dahai left in high spirits, and started a series of arrangements when he returned to the office.

Soon, job postings appeared in the lobby of the office building.

There are three types of work, one is to collect snow, and the reward is converted according to weight; the other is to collect combustibles, and the reward is converted according to grade and weight; the last is to use snow to build walls, and the reward is calculated according to the amount of work.

Because of Lan Ke's words, Pang Dahai specially classified the combustibles into grades. Those that are resistant to fire belong to high grades, and those that are not resistant to fire belong to low grades, so as to prevent some people from dealing with them indiscriminately.

As soon as the recruitment notice was posted, the panicked survivors breathed a sigh of relief and signed up one after another.

At first, it worked out pretty well.

With the snow, more and more people in the base could afford water, the outer walls were repaired again, and stoves were lit in everyone's homes.

However, before everyone was happy for too long, a strong wind blew outside.

The heavy snow kept falling, and the strong wind was getting stronger and stronger, making it extremely difficult to go out. Everyone had to return home again, waiting for the strong wind to pass.

However, after waiting for a long time, they found that the situation was getting worse and worse.

The strong wind roared continuously, making a sound like the cry of a ghost.

Soon, what was supposed to be a simple snowstorm turned into a terrifying blizzard that covered the sky and the sun.

The power of the blizzard was terrible, the tree trunks were blown off, the windows were smashed, and the cold wind wrapped in snowflakes poured continuously into the house through the broken windows.

The burning stove was quickly extinguished, and the temperature in the room became lower and lower.

Many people had no choice but to lock their doors and hide in places where the strong wind could not blow them, shivering.

Compared with when the apocalypse just broke out, all this is more like the end of the world.

The helpless Pang Dahai had to ask Lan Ke for help again.
