"Let me take a look!"

Chen Li put down the potatoes in his hand and was the first to run to the door, looking into the corridor outside with his eyes close to the peephole.

It's dark outside, but you can still see a few blurry figures. They all hold flashlights in their hands, and they seem to be holding something in the other hand. What is it specifically? Chen Li really couldn't see clearly.

"Is there anyone coming out to visit us in the middle of the night?"

Chen Li muttered in his mouth.

"What kind of visit?" Lu Mei asked.

Chen Li came back and told everyone what he had just seen.

"So weird?"

Lu Mei and the others were also confused, but they had no time to think about it for the time being. They had to take care of the hygiene at home before dawn, otherwise the temperature would rise during the day and they would be unable to do so.

When the two families finished cleaning and just went to bed, people started to leave the two houses next door.

"Old Chen, did you feel any noise at the door?"

Lu Mei moved her face towards the fan and asked.

"Whether it makes any noise or not, go to bed quickly. Aren't you tired after a busy night?"

Chen Da said a few vague words and then fell asleep.

"Just sleep! We just moved here, so we should be more alert."

Lu Mei glared at Chen Da, who was sleeping soundly beside him. She felt that the man had a big heart and was not reliable at all. She still had to pay attention to the person next door.

After all, this is the end of the world, so we must be on guard against others. I probably will never meet good neighbors like Coco and Aunt Qiao in my life.

I will try to buy a tricycle when my salary is paid at the beginning of next month. Then I will go with Shi Huan and the others to the Lanshan villa area to see Aunt Qiao and Coco.

……

Lanshan Villa Area, Villa No. 1.

The men Du Huairen sent out to communicate in the past few days have all returned one after another, and he actually got in touch with a friend who had previously provided various protective clothing to the government.

Du Huairen asked his youngest son Du Yicheng to prepare a seven-seater minivan filled with rice, potatoes and various compressed biscuits.

Just in case, Du Yicheng was asked to drive over late at night and exchange protective clothing for a large truckload of protective clothing with his friend.

These protective clothing were all made just before the natural disaster, and only two trucks were snatched out during the flood.

Mr. Du's friend thought that these protective suits were going to be thrown into his hands, but he didn't expect that he could exchange them for a cart of food.

There were two types of protective clothing in the truck that Du Yicheng drove back. One was the one that Su Keke mentioned was highly anti-corrosion. When you wear this kind of protective clothing, it will be fine even if the other party throws sulfuric acid on you. There is also a type of protective clothing for various infectious diseases.

Du Huairen collected half of the protective clothing and stored it first, then exchanged the remaining half for drinking water with Su Keke.

He had always felt that Su Keke, a little girl, had a lot of background. Not only could she get arms, but now she could even get such popular drinking water.

So there must be a reason for her to stock up on protective clothing, so she should just do the same.

In the evening of the next day, shortly after the temperature dropped, Du Huairen sent someone over to inform Su Keke that the protective clothing she wanted was found.

Su Keke and Grandma Qiao put on sun protection clothing, masks and hats and drove to Du's house.

There were a lot of protective suits in half a truck. Su Keke followed Butler Song and took a rough inventory. There were more than 3000 anti-corrosion protective suits and more than 5000 virus protective suits.

"How much drinking water do you want to change, sir?" Su Keke asked.

When she entered the truck to order some goods, Su Keke was so hot that her face was covered in sweat. After coming out, she felt a little bit of cool breeze.

Butler Song did not answer Su Keke's question directly, but looked back at Du Yicheng outside the car.

"When we get to the villa, the old man will talk to you personally." Du Yicheng said formulaically.

This big truck was parked on the grass in front of the property management office, which is not far from Du Huairen's Villa No. 1.

After counting the protective clothing, Du Yicheng took Su Keke and Grandma Qiao to Villa No. 1 to meet Du Huairen.

Su Keke and Du Yicheng haven't met each other for a long time. Ever since Bai Wei came over to make trouble, Su Keke has deliberately avoided Du Yicheng. Later, because of the extreme heat, rich people basically didn't go out.

This time, the two of them got in touch again because of the exchange of drinking water. Su Keke spoke openly and openly as before. On the other hand, Du Yicheng seemed a lot more reserved, not as familiar as before.

Apart from talking about how to exchange, the two of them had nothing else to say. It was like two good friends suddenly had an argument, and neither one wanted to apologize first.

Judging from the lack of water, Du Huairen had an unprecedented sense of crisis.

He felt that natural disasters might continue forever. Although he had stocked up on a lot of supplies, they would eventually run out.

Just like drinking water, no one expected that extreme heat would come at a moment's notice, and the water they had stored was suddenly exhausted.

We really have to save money now, otherwise his whole family will have to line up to receive relief food from the government one day.

Nowadays, besides water, I use a lot of electricity. I do have channels to buy gasoline, but it takes a lot of supplies to get it. According to the living habits of his two prodigal sons, even the most abundant materials were not made.

Now we not only need to save water, but also save electricity. But even Du Huairen himself couldn't stand it on such a hot day without turning on the air conditioner, let alone Du Yifan and Du Yicheng, who were both spoiled.

So Du Huairen thought of letting both Du Yicheng and Du Yifan live together in Villa No. 1. In this way, not only can everyone use the air conditioner, but it can also reduce the electricity consumption of the other two villas.

However, when there are more people, there will be more conflicts.

The eldest daughter-in-law Ouyang Manman has never been able to please her mother-in-law, and she and her younger sister-in-law Bai Wei dislike each other.

After she moved here, she basically stayed in her room except for eating.

Bai Wei had a lot to do, so she would accompany Mrs. Du to watch movies and eat melon seeds in the basement screening room.

When Su Keke entered Villa No. 1, there were only Mr. Du and Du Yifan waiting for them in the living room.

"Miss Su and Ms. Qiao are here! Please sit down! Please sit down!"

Du Huairen stood up from the sofa with a smile and raised his hand to invite Su Keke and the others to sit on the sofa opposite.

Du Yifan, who was sitting on the single sofa on the other side, was still holding a comic and reading it with gusto, completely unaware that Du Huairen was glaring at him with sharp eyes.

"Don't be so polite, old man. Just call me Keke from now on." Su Keke and Grandma Qiao sat down opposite Du Huairen calmly.

Grandma Qiao didn't speak the whole time, but nodded politely to Du Huairen when she sat down.

She didn't interfere in any of these matters that needed to be negotiated, and she didn't want to worry about Coco being a girl out at night.

"Okay! Then let's call her Coco!" Du Huairen smiled happily and let Butler Song serve a pot of tea before starting to talk about business.

Du Yicheng sat directly on the single sofa opposite his brother.

Everyone was seriously discussing how much drinking water should be exchanged for half a truck of protective clothing. Only Du Yifan acted like an outsider, stuffing beef jerky into his mouth while reading comics, and laughed out loud when he saw the funny part.
