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

Since June, the weather has been unbearably hot. Daytime temperatures are now heading toward the fifty-degree mark.

People pray for rain every day, hoping that the rain will take away a little bit of the heat. Unfortunately, God doesn't seem to hear people's voices. It has not rained for more than a month.

The water level in Dancheng City Reservoir has long since dropped below the warning line and continues to drop every day.

The water plant had to reduce the water pressure in the water network to alleviate the water pressure in the city.

For this reason, the water plant has received a lot of criticism on the Internet.

Hoarding food and water has become the norm. Although prices have been rising repeatedly, the official announcement that Dancheng City has abundant supplies and calls on everyone to shop wisely and does not encourage people to hoard too many supplies still cannot stop everyone's enthusiasm for stocking up.

In the food and beverage sections of major supermarkets, salespeople have no time to replenish the goods. As soon as they are put on the shelves, they will be snatched up by adults and aunts.

Xiang Chi and Xu Ge had also done some shopping a few times. After all, they lived in a community and other families had gone to buy supplies, so it was a little strange that he didn't go there.

However, Xiang Chi and Xu Ge do not want to compress the living space of ordinary people any more.

If they buy less, others can buy more, and maybe the extra money will save some people.

This is the only thing Xiang Chi and Xu Ge can do.

Every time they go to the supermarket, they always pick out things that people don’t pay much attention to these days.

Potato chips, chicken feet with pickled peppers, preserved fruits, self-heating hot pot, crispy rice crackers, fruit juice gummy candies, chocolate, jelly and other snacks.

Since Han Dongdong moved here, Xiang Chi and the others always bought a lot of ice cream and milk tea when they went to the supermarket. After several visits, they actually stocked up a lot.

……

Xu Tao looked around for construction teams, but none were suitable. Either he couldn't do this job, or he couldn't do that job. Finally, we found the construction team that decorated Xiang Chi's house.

After adding a lot of money, the construction team leader Fan Qi agreed to start working for his family after completing the order in hand.

After Xiang Chi found out, he couldn't help but sigh, the money ability is still useful!

Within a few days, the construction team came in and began major renovations of Xu Tao's house.

During this time, many people are renovating and renovating their houses, installing insulation layers, installing solar energy, digging basements, raising walls... in short, there are all kinds of strange requests.

Fan Qi, the construction team leader, is already used to seeing things like this in the Xu Tao family.

As long as they are given enough money, they can do any house-related work, whether it is bricklayers, electricians, or digging basements.

But what kind of boiler should be added to a good bungalow? Apart from Xiang Chi’s family, it’s also Xu Tao’s family.

Fan Qi just complained in his heart, rich people can really mess around.

But when he thought about the salary he would get after finishing this job, Fan Qi was full of energy, and he swung the hammer in his hand even more vigorously.

Fan Qi's construction team can be considered a relatively large group, with more than ten people.

There were many people and the work was fast. In just a few days, Xu Tao's family's tasks were completed.

The renovation process is the same as that of the Xiang Chi family. Now the exterior wall insulation layer is completed and solar charging panels are installed on the roof.

Xu Tao kept the original glass greenhouse in the attic, replaced the glass with professional thermal insulation glass, and installed a protective layer and blackout curtains on the outer layer. It will be convenient for growing vegetables later.

The basement has been enlarged and is now being ventilated. Taking advantage of this time, Fan Qi led others to modify the floor heating in the house.

After the boiler is installed and the basement is almost dry, and finally a layer of waterproofing is applied, the Xu Tao family's task is basically completed.

The recent decoration orders are really overwhelming, which is also a sweet burden for Fan Qi.

After Xu Tao accepted it, he happily paid the balance. Fan Qi is a good person, he does his work neatly and cleanly, and he cleans up everything at the end.

Xu Ge and Xiang Chi were originally looking to help with the cleaning, but this time it was easier.

After receiving the transfer information and seeing the 10,000 yuan more than the original price, Fan Qi looked at Xu Tao in surprise.

Fan Qi: "Boss Xu, why are you given an extra ten thousand..."

Xu Tao said that even if the extra money is to treat the brothers to a meal, everyone has worked overtime for the past half month and finally completed it today, which can be considered a thank you to everyone.

When the workers nearby heard this, they thanked Xu Tao repeatedly.

"Boss Xu is so awesome!"

"As expected of Boss Xu! I wish Boss Xu a fortune!"

"Boss Xu, call us again if you have any chance!"

How could Fan Qi not accept it? He smiled cheerfully.

"Okay, then I'll thank Boss Xu on behalf of the brothers!"

After a final check that all operations were correct, the group packed up various tools and headed out.

Just when Fan Qi was about to get in the car, Xu Gejiu said unintentionally:

"Xu Tao, it's getting hotter day by day. Let's go out later to stock up on something to eat and drink."

Xu Tao understood instantly and cooperated by saying:

"It's not that bad. It's hot today. Let's go after I pack up!"

After saying that, he waved to Fan Qi and walked into the house.

Xu Tao: "Master Fan, please go slowly. I'm going to go into the house to get the car keys first!"

Xu Ge looked at Fan Qi who was thoughtful and smiled.

Xu Ge: "Don't be offended, Master Fan. My brother just says that wind is like rain. If you ask me, Master Fan, you should also buy some. The prices are changing every day. If you buy early, you may still make a profit? Do you think so?" no?"

After speaking, Fan Qi waved his hand without waiting for anything to say.

"I won't send you off anymore, Master Fan. You walk slowly, and brothers drive slowly as well."

Fan Qi nodded after hearing this and got in the car.

Fan Qi's younger brother Fan Yang saw him finally getting on the bus and asked curiously:

"Brother, what did Boss Xu and the others say?"

Fan Qi was thinking about the conversation between Xu Ge and Xu Tao, and mumbled his answer:

"I didn't say anything... I just said I was going to the supermarket to stock up on stuff..."

Seeing his eldest brother's absent-minded look, Fan Yang said "Oh", turned around and started chatting with other workers.

Xu Tao's family has a lot of work, especially renovating the basement and renovating the glass greenhouse. This kind of work requires effort and skills, which is the most profitable.

This order, including the work and materials, totaled nearly one million.

After excluding the money for various materials and Fan Qi's big share, each worker on the construction team can get almost 20,000 yuan.

In fifteen days, I earned 20,000 yuan, which is considered a high salary.

Fan Qi thought about Xu Ge's words, and then thought about the tasks he had taken on during this period, and the few words he heard. There is an inexplicable intuition in my heart.

He looked at the brothers who were happily discussing how to spend the money, and said: "Don't think about how to spend it randomly. I think it's more practical to buy something to eat and drink! I don't think big supermarkets are crowded every day now." …”

When they arrived at the small office they rented, they distributed the money to the workers. Fan Qi dragged his younger brother Fan Yang to the supermarket to buy.

Several people from the same village saw this and quickly followed him. Went out in the night.

Yes, supermarkets are now open at night and closed during the day.
