Apocalyptic Tundra Age

Chapter 23 I dare not even think about it: [chat]

Xu Zhonglei returned home. He plans to install solar generators and wind generators this afternoon to power the three freezers in his home. The maximum installed power generation capacity is 5000 watts. According to the current windy and rainy conditions For the weather, I am afraid that there is only three or four hundred watts, and the air conditioner for cooking cannot be considered. It should be no problem to supply a freezer for seven or eight hours.

A few days ago, Xu Zhonglei did not dare to put the generators on the big platform at the risk of his own meat going bad. The main reason is that the dozens of generators he has now are simply non-renewable resources, and the earthquake shook him. , Solar panels and fan blades fall and fall, and there is no place to repair them.

The solar panels are easy to install, and they have not been disassembled after being assembled before. The panels are fixed on the roof, and then connected to the power cord, they can be used.However, Xu Zhonglei has never used this wind turbine. After receiving the goods, Xu Zhonglei directly put the boxes into the basement. Now he can only study and use it with the manual and a pile of blades, wires and supporting screws on the ground.

After installing screwdrivers and pliers back and forth for more than an hour, Xu Zhonglei watched with satisfaction as the white blades slowly rotated with the breeze.

At the regular summary meeting of the villagers in the evening, Xu Zhonglei discovered that the village chief who was the speaker and the summarizer did not say a word, and the one who came on stage became his big brother Xu Zhiping. The village chief leaned against the wall, hidden In the corner of the fire, it looked very lonely.

Xu Zhiping only said that the rain might not stop tomorrow, and that the village could go to the town to see the situation while it had time.

Xu Zhonglei knew that the last time he went to town, he had no results, so he didn't join in the fun this time.Xu Zhiping picked a few from the applicants, including his partner Wang Jiating who carried the corpse.

"I want to see it!" It was Xiao Cheng's voice.

Cheng Yuming would usually consciously avoid discussing matters in the village. He was still injured and unable to move.Just lying in the corner, generally not speaking, not expressing his opinion.Since Xiao Cheng got out of Xu Zhonglei's car, Xu Zhonglei has been busy for five or six days, so busy that Xu Zhonglei almost forgot that he had rescued this person.

"You can't even move, don't make do with it!" Before Xu Zhiping could refute, Dr. Zeng spoke first.

"Doctor Zeng is right, you can lie down in peace! I will tell you if there is any news." Xu Zhiping could only add comfortingly.

The next day was still a rainy day. It had been raining for four consecutive days. The sky was gloomy, but the rain was much lighter than the previous two days.

Standing on the road, Xu Zhonglei looked at the big pond shrouded in misty rain. After several days of rain, the dry big pond had returned to its usual water level. The water was turbid yellow. When the cold wind blew, Xu Zhonglei shook Shaking off the goose bumps on his body, he hurried back to the house.

This body temperature is too cold, it should only be around 15 degrees, and the temperature has dropped again.

The team of eating, drinking, drinking and playing mahjong got two decks of poker out of the ruins somehow, and they are playing.

Xu Hui, who brought his family with him in the team, did not participate. Xu Zhiping took another one to the town. Now the remaining four people are playing "run fast" in the house in full swing. The funds are dug out from the ruins. The renminbi, a piece of red bills is very exciting.

The other room is dominated by women. Four or five of the women headed by Chunjuan are busy around the stove. Xu Zhonglei saw that the stove has been upgraded and turned into a black-gray silt brick. There are two large pots on the table, and a tall chimney leading to the outside.The appearance is almost the same as the kitchen that Xu Zhonglei saw in the village in the past.

Xu Zhonglei helped Sister Liu who was sitting on the chair and asked, "What is this for?"

Sister Liu was helping to knead the cooked rice into balls. One of her calves was wrapped in gauze, which was empty and looked a little creepy.

He replied, "Isn't your elder brother going to build a house? Thinking that there will be no time to cook at that time, and there are so many wet rice here, let's make a part of it first, and then we can help each other. Help."

"When this thing is ready, put salt and oil on it, and then you only need to go to the field in the morning to pick a vegetable, and it will be a meal." Sister Chunjuan said regretfully, "I said that I want to make rice noodles or glutinous rice cakes. , Xu Zhiping said it was too costly, so we had to knead it into balls and put it away. I estimate that the millet and rice we dug up will weigh tens of thousands of catties, and we will make rice noodles to eat."

"Sister Chunjuan, you know how to do this?" Xu Zhonglei was also greedy when he heard the rice noodles. The slender and soft rice noodles only need to be put in boiling water for a few seconds, and then you can take them out directly, add salt, and a spoonful of soy sauce. , a small piece of lard, and a little bit of monosodium glutamate, pour the boiled bone broth, a large spoonful of shredded pork, and then add bright red chili oil and dry fragrant chili powder. der, it smells so good!

"I learned from the videos. This is my hobby. Things are not difficult, and you can get started as soon as you do it."

Xu Zhonglei helped them do the most labor-intensive work of burning fire and chopping firewood.

The kneaded rice dumplings were neatly stacked with plate-shaped steel skins and put into the box. Xu Zhonglei saw that the box he brought was already full, and there were several wooden boxes next to it. The task is to fill up the boxes.

Xu Zhonglei listened to the women's gossip with his ears open, probably asking Xu Hui's wife who was present, where their family planned to rebuild the house.Xu Hui's family was the lucky ones in the earthquake, because there were more than a dozen people in the family who played cards all night and none of them died.

Xu Hui's wife is a short and fat middle-aged woman, she doesn't love anyone very much, she just sits aside and washes the rice. Xu Zhonglei usually calls her Sister Tan Huan, and Xu Zhonglei knows almost everyone in her family.Xu Zhonglei doesn't like to remember names. Generally speaking, the face and the name don't correspond. Only after getting along for a long time can he recognize him at a glance.

Sister Tan Huan's mother-in-law and Xu Hui's old lady were also present. She is a very pungent old lady, quick in her movements and hot in her words.

"Where else can I build it? I can only build it on my own homestead. Be careful of the house that will be built at that time, and I will push it with a bulldozer."

Mrs. Xu spoke local dialect, very fast, and babbling.As Xu Zhonglei listened, he could only understand a few words that popped up.

Rural women are generally aggressive, and the old lady has a bad tone and is also attacked by other women. Xu Zhonglei can see it, but he only chopped firewood for more than an hour and was also beaten out: what does a man look like when he hangs around with women all day long? ?

He had to go to the next door to talk to Cheng Yuming, who couldn't move.

Cheng Yuming seemed a little shocked that Xu Zhonglei took the initiative to talk to him, but probably because there was no one to accompany him, Cheng Yuming still accepted it gladly.

Cheng Yuming asked about Xu Zhonglei's experience very conventionally, and Xu Zhonglei had nothing to hide, saying that he had stayed in Guang'an for more than ten years and only recently returned.

Asked the reason, Xu Zhonglei said that he was raped by his former company after being ill. After suing the former company, he went back to his hometown to recuperate. He planned to find a job for the elderly locally, but now the earthquake came.

Cheng Yuming's thick eyebrows and big eyes seemed to be very interested in what happened to the company. Xu Zhonglei told him the five ways the company had summed up before asking you to leave, and he also mentioned that there are still many people in his company who have been tricked like this. If you leave, you won't even get the basic compensation.

After Xu Zhonglei asked his question again, Cheng Yuming faltered and refused to say anything.

Xu Zhonglei slapped his forehead: "You, a policeman from Guang'an, must have a mission when you come to our side, keep it secret! I understand!"

Cheng Yuming just lay on the bed and laughed awkwardly, and asked, "How do you know I'm a policeman?"

"I forgot to tell you. When I helped you undress, I touched it. It was hard." Xu Zhonglei smiled: "The ID photo, I put it back for you later."

This is a good chat, why did you start the car?

"Oh."

Cheng Yuming stopped talking and looked thoughtful.

Xu Zhonglei thought that he was annoyed by secretly looking at people's ID cards, so he racked his brains to find a topic: "Which school did you graduate from? Does the police school have any weird courses?"

Looking for topics, like licking a dog.

It seems that Cheng Yuming forgot quickly, and chatted with Xu Zhonglei again after a while, football stars, teams, electronic products, games, novels, the two have a common language, it didn't happen that you are my opponent's fan, the last two People fight on the spot.

Xu Zhonglei asked him how his injury was, and Cheng Yuming said that his wound was slowly healing, but it was so itchy that his bones couldn't stand it.

"I heard that the police are still very dangerous. Have you ever been injured before?"

Cheng Yuming said a little sadly: "It's not that serious. My job is to find pets for grandpa and aunt, and to persuade married couples who are fighting. The most serious injury was a big mouthful of flesh bitten off by a particularly fierce stray dog. It was bitten on the way home, and there is no work-related compensation."

He pointed to his leg and said, "Here, there is still a large scar on the ankle of the calf."

Xu Zhonglei felt that this person was too unlucky, so he joked with a smile: "Then I can't see it, your scar this time is probably going to cover up your scar. You are so unlucky, you have another big scar."

"Hey, didn't I want to get a subsidy for going out? Just like this, there was an earthquake. No news, no one came to see, and I couldn't even make a phone call." Cheng Yuming was half sitting up, but now he is lying down again : "I want to send the news of the death of my two comrades-in-arms, and I also want to report to my parents that they are safe."

"We'll have to wait for you to recover. My mother is also in Guang'an. If I can get in touch, you can help me take a look."

"This is wrong. Our national organization is so strong. It's not normal for no one to come for so long." Cheng Yuming sat up again and whispered to Xu Zhonglei.

Xu Zhonglei hinted, "Is it because the scope of the earthquake is too large?"

"No matter how big it is, it's impossible for such a big country to have nothing to do." Cheng Yuming shook his head, "Maybe your village is too remote."

"What do you think will happen if there is a huge nationwide earthquake?"

Cheng Yuming lay down again, and murmured, "This is so terrible, I can't even think about it."
