Natural Disaster: My Portable Farm in the End of the World

Han Dongdong showed concern.

"Didn't you tell me that you were on a mission? Why are you back?"

When Xu Tao passed the driver's test, he used a walkie-talkie to contact Han Dongdong and the others. After explaining the situation, they never spoke again.

Xiang Chi and Han Dongdong thought he would come back at night. Unexpectedly, it was only noon and Xu Tao was back.

Is it possible that there are some variables?

Xu Tao took the towel handed to Chi, wiped his wet hair and said:

"I went on a mission and rescued a whole family. I came back just in time to have lunch at noon. The leader said I could rest for an hour, so I came back."

After that, he took out the cornmeal cakes and bottled water hidden in his clothes.

Han Dongdong looked at the food and water in Xu Tao's hands and frowned.

"Is this what you want for lunch? Didn't you provide something hot?"

Xu Tao laughed after hearing Han Dongdong's words. Putting the things into the bag, he said:

"It's good to have something to eat. Do you think they all have enough food and drink like us? People outside now..."

Thinking of what he saw and heard in the morning, Xu Tao suppressed the smile on his face.

"The situation outside is worse than before."

Xu Tao looked around and saw that the other three families were busy with their own affairs and did not pay attention to them, so he whispered:

"The situation will only get more serious. We have to keep a low profile. If you have nothing to do, don't leave this room. It's best to go to the bathroom together, don't go alone."

This morning, Xu Ge was not idle either. He had been observing and inquiring about the news in the air-raid shelter. He also vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he still didn't know as much as Xu Tao did outside.

Seeing how serious Xu Tao was, he asked quickly.

Xu Tao also told everything he saw and heard this morning and the news he heard at noon.

With more and more people in shelters, food-for-work programs can no longer alleviate the growing food crisis.

After all, jobs are limited, and despite the best efforts of the authorities, many people still don't have enough to eat.

Especially when floods come, the situation becomes more serious. There have been several fights over fighting or theft of food.

Fortunately, in the morning, the army's food delivery team came back, and the official announced that people could receive relief food, so people's tension relaxed a little.

However, looking at the essence through the phenomenon, Xu Ge still has a pessimistic view of the current situation and future of the shelter through Xu Tao's narration.

The official distribution of relief food now has indeed alleviated some of people's pressure to survive.

but! The official food supply is not endless. After high temperatures, insect infestations, and now a flood, how much official food reserves are there?

Was the food stored in the flood damaged? These are all unknowns. Ordinary people like them cannot spy on these high-level secrets.

However, based on the pitiful amount of relief grains, Xu Ge guessed that the official grain reserves may not be optimistic.

The relief food distributed this time is not available to everyone, and corresponding conditions must be met.

Children and the elderly without guardians under the age of 15 and over 65 can each receive three palm-sized cornmeal cakes and a bottle of 300 ml of water per day.

Young adults in the middle age group cannot receive relief food, unless they are unable to work or are pregnant or breastfeeding women.

The conditions can be said to be unprecedentedly harsh.

Before some people who had been rescued could recover from the fear of almost drowning in the flood, they were stunned by the cruel reality of not having food to eat or water to drink.

Now everyone will be told this news before entering the shelter. People have no time to feel sad, so they have to find a job they can do to support themselves. The mountain of survival presses on everyone, making people breathless.

For Xiang Chi, the current situation can be regarded as their most embarrassing time after the high temperature.

Living in a shelter, Xiang Chi has no intention of using the space because of the crowds.

This meant that they had to eat and drink in limited quantities. Xiang Chi was not sure how long the flood would last before it subsided, so starting from today, starting from this meal, they also had to be frugal.

After a few people had eaten, they decided to stay the same for the time being in response to the ever-changing situation. Xu Tao stayed for a while, and the rest time was almost over.

Putting on another layer of thermal underwear, Xu Tao put it on and left the air-raid shelter to go to the motorboat.

In the room, Xu Ge and Xiang Chi began to think about their future plans again.

It is said to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Both Xiang's father, Xiang's mother and Xu Tao have jobs, saving three rations of food. If they don't have to leave someone to look after their luggage, Xiang Chi also plans to go out to find a job.

Xiang Chi gathered the food they had, including twenty packs of instant noodles, ten pounds of dried noodles, two large boxes of various chocolates and Snickers high-calorie snacks, and two boxes of compressed dry food.

Xu Tao and Han Dongdong brought ten pounds of noodles, a box of compressed dry food, and some chocolates.

In addition, they also have a variety of rice balls and pancakes.

The compressed dry food they brought was the same brand they bought together. There are twenty small packages in one box, each package contains 200 grams. One piece can feed an adult for a day.

The compressed dry food alone can feed them for seven days, not to mention instant noodles and rice balls.

Xiang Chi estimated that the existing food could feed eight of them for eleven or two days. If they ate sparingly, they could feed them for fifteen days.

Another one is that Xiang’s father, Xiang’s mother and Xu Tao don’t need to consume their food reserves these days.

If they can keep working, the five of them can eat this food for almost twenty days.

A flood before high temperatures typically lasts three to seven days. It stands to reason that their food is more than enough.

But it’s the end of the world now, and the high temperature has lasted for ten months. What else is impossible?

In peacetime, how could anyone believe that one day there would be temperatures as high as 70 degrees?

I'm afraid that this flood will last for a month or two, which will be troublesome.

If the floods really don't recede for a month, I'm afraid there will be a riot in the shelter before Xiang Chi and the others finish eating.

Most people in the shelter have enough food for five days, not to mention twenty days, which is pretty good.

Xiang Chi was worried about their future. Sometimes, Xiang Chi sometimes thinks that it would be better for the whole family to take refuge in space from the beginning.

But then I thought about it, what would Xu Tao and Han Dongdong's family do if they really hid in space?

When the flood comes, Xu Tao will definitely go to her house to look for them when he finds something is wrong. How will he feel when he finds out that they are missing?

Xu Tao would not think that they fled for their lives first, but that something happened. Definitely looking for them or waiting for them at home.

If Xu Tao and Han Dongdong delayed their escape because of them, something unexpected happened. Xiang Chi will never forgive himself.
