Natural Disaster: My Portable Farm in the End of the World
Chapter 19 New Years
That night, Xiang Chi received a video communication from Han Dongdong.
The same rhetoric was explained to Han Dongdong again.
Han Dongdong: "I said that last time we went shopping, you persuaded me and Xiao Xue to buy so many down jackets, woolen pants and the like... I was still wondering why you suddenly became so prodigal."
After discussing for a while how to renovate their residence, Han Dongdong suddenly had an idea and expressed that he wanted to consider a house in Xiangchi's community.
It's best to have a single-family house, because the house they live in now is on a high-rise. When I bought it, the picture showed a good view.
But for the future, on the one hand, it is inconvenient to store goods. There are people upstairs and downstairs, which is more eye-catching.
Another thing is that if there is a power or water outage or an earthquake occurs in the future, it will not be as convenient as Xiang Chi's house.
And they live closer to Xiang Chi's family, so they can take care of each other in case of emergencies.
The more he talked, the more he felt it was feasible. Han Dongdong hurriedly said to Xiang Chi, "hang up, let's chat another day." and hung up the video.
It seemed that he was talking to Xu Tao about changing rooms.
Accustomed to Han Dongdong's jumping off, Xiang Chi calmly put down his phone.
Entering the space, he continued to wield the sickle with Xu Ge. Another crop of wheat was harvested. The couple rested directly in the wooden house.
(Ha~ Hey~ Ha~ I’m here again at the dividing line~~~)
The days passed quietly in the busyness, and in a blink of an eye, it was already mid-February.
A few days before the Chinese New Year, Xu’s father and Xu’s mother moved to a bungalow.
After all, I have lived in the old building in the family home for almost 30 years, and I have deep feelings for it.
When moving, the more emotional mother Xu burst into tears, and even the usually serious father Xu had a look of sadness on his face.
In the bungalow, the bedroom layout designed for Xu's father and Xu's mother is exactly the same as that of the old house.
Xu Ge packed up all the furniture his parents used to use and brought it back.
Except for the big wardrobe that couldn't be moved, Xiang Chi brought back all the chests and dressing tables that belonged to his parents-in-law.
When she arrived at the bungalow and looked at the familiar layout and furniture in the new bedroom, Xu's mother couldn't help but laugh and nodded Xiang Chi's forehead.
Xu’s mother: “Little clever girl, mom and dad like this room very much!”
Xiang Chi smiled and hugged Xu Ma's arm acting coquettishly.
Xiang Chi: "After waiting for so long, my parents are finally here. Now that I think about it, it will be much easier to eat the mutton soup made by my mother."
Seeing his daughter-in-law welcoming him so, the smile on Xu's father's and Xu's mother's faces became a little deeper.
Xu’s mother: “Okay, okay, mom is going to cook now. The weather has been so cold recently. Eating some mutton and radish will be the most nourishing thing!”
As the New Year approaches, the temperature is getting lower day by day. It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good harvest, but this year there was only a howling cold wind and no snow.
The outdoor temperature has dropped to more than 30 degrees below zero. It is so strange that not a single snowflake can be seen in such a low temperature. When walking on the street, the cold wind blows across a person's face, and it feels like being cut by a razor blade, with tingling pain.
Dan City is located in the north of Dragon Kingdom. Although there have been several such low temperatures in previous years, it was usually accompanied by heavy snow.
This year's dry cold seems to have added a damage buff to the low temperature, making people feel irresistible.
The cold penetrated into the body along the seams of the bones. Staying outside for a while would make you shiver from the cold, even if you were wearing the thickest down jacket.
It wasn't until the afternoon of New Year's Eve that the belated snowflakes began to fall.
This year’s Chinese New Year is particularly lively. Xiang Chi brings Xiang’s father and mother to the bungalow to celebrate the New Year.
In the evening, three men were making dumplings around the table. Xiang Chi and Xiang Ma and Xu Ma were cracking melon seeds in the living room and chatting animatedly.
Along with the noisy firecrackers outside, the snow is getting heavier and heavier.
When it was time for the New Year's Eve dinner, Xu Ge went out to set off firecrackers and found that the snow was already up to his ankles.
And the goose-feather heavy snow continued to fall with no sign of stopping.
On the morning of the first day of the new year, Xiang Chi frowned when he was hit by the snow as he just went out. He didn't know when the snow stopped last night.
The snow is now as high as a man's knees. After two hours of tossing with Xu Ge, we were able to push all the snow in the yard to the fence.
Just after finishing their work, the two of them didn't feel cold. They still had their childlike innocence and built a very ugly snowman near the door.
Xiang's father and Xiang's mother stayed there for five or six days before making arrangements to return to the clinic. Xiang Chi, who couldn't resist the two old men, had no choice but to promise to send them back early in the morning on Chu Qi.
After sending Xiang's parents home, Xu Ge and Xiang Chi went straight to the mall.
Now that the weather is so cold, sunscreen, sun hats, sun protection clothing, cooling oil and other sun protection equipment are all on sale. Xiang Chi plans to take advantage of the off-season prices to buy more.
There are thirty parasols each in large, medium and small sizes. There are fifty sun hats for men and women each.
Naturally, you need to use more of sunscreen and sunscreen spray, things that you use less often.
I directly asked for the high-power SPF50 PA+++ sunscreen, and I bought a hundred bottles of the large-capacity 400ml one.
The maximum capacity of sunscreen spray in this mall is only 220ml, and they bought bottles.
I got fifty pairs of sunglasses for men and women respectively. 200 sets of ice sleeves.
One hundred sets of quick-drying clothes. Cooling oil, toilet water, and essential oils were moved in boxes, and the warehouse of the shopping mall was emptied directly. The smiling sales manager's mouth almost reached his ears.
Xiang Chi was shopping and found two treasures: a hanging neck fan and a handheld fan.
The former requires batteries and has the advantage of freeing your hands. The latter can be operated manually, the blades will rotate by pressing the handle and does not require charging.
The total inventory of these two items was less than 200, and Xiang Chi said that they were all covered.
Now Xiang Chi and Xu Ge are like the gods of wealth to sales managers. This is better than a big order, and I can get a lot of commission.
After writing down these two items, the sales manager carefully recommended other products.
Seeing that Xiang Xi was buying out-of-season items, he led them to the bedding area and started selling various mats.
Also recommended the ice maker. Xu Ge compared the prices and found that the price/performance ratio was quite high, so he ordered ten units.
After shopping around for two times, I gave the manager the address of the warehouse. Xu Ge paid half of the price directly, and his only request was to deliver the goods quickly.
This makes the sales manager very happy. We promise to distribute the goods now and all the goods will be delivered to the place in the afternoon.
This time, nearly 50,000 yuan was taken out during the sweep. In addition to buying oil some time ago, these two times directly spent all Xu Ge's year-end bonus.
It was not even five o'clock when we came out of the shopping mall, and the sky turned gloomy, with a biting north wind blowing.
I looked at the temperature and saw it was already minus thirty-nine degrees Celsius!
As soon as he got into the car, the air conditioner hadn't heated up yet, so Xiang Chi rubbed his hands. Feeling like Xu Ge.
I didn't expect it to be so cold. The ordinary down jackets they bought before turned out to be no longer very warm.
This has not yet reached the extreme cold weather that the system prompts. I wonder how low the temperature will drop by then?
Sixty degrees below zero? Seventy degrees? Or...lower temperature?
Xiang Chi didn't know and didn't dare to think about it.
Shaking his head to drive the negative thoughts out of his mind, Xiang Chi cheered up again.
No matter how long they can persist, as long as they make their best efforts now and prepare to the best of their ability, they will live up to the space system's "mercy" this time!
