In addition to buying water from the water company, Linlang used to fetch water from the well at home every time she went home. At that time, there was still a lot of water coming out of the well at home, so there was no shortage of water. Fetching it would not affect the use of Zhang's parents and Zhang's mother. , take it with you in the car, and store it in the space water tank after filtering.
Through these measures, over the past year or so, she has already stored 20 tons of water. From now on, she will store more than 20 tons. The excess will be stored in the space for future needs. used when.
But she knew that such good days would soon end.
On the one hand, the water from the well at home is getting less and less. It is only enough for her parents to use, and she can no longer carry it.
On the other hand, the ration in the city will be reduced from 50 liters of water per person to 30 liters per person. In this way, she will not be able to save much water every day.
Fortunately, autumn has passed and winter is coming. She takes less baths and uses less water. At 30 liters per person per day, she can still save some water.
Of course, since entering this world, she has gradually reduced the amount of water she uses every day.
The reason why we don’t reduce water consumption step by step is because we are afraid that the stars will not adapt.
Gradually reduce it until you feel it, and you will get used to it.
For example, giving a star a bath has always been a shower before.
But leaving it on all the time will definitely consume water, and children like to play with water. If you let her take a bath, she can wash in it for a long time and never come out, which consumes much more water than an adult taking a bath.
Later, Linlang bought her a beautiful pink bathtub, and she liked washing in the bathtub.
——The villa has a bathtub, but it's too big and not beautiful. Xingxing doesn't like being in it, so she bought a bathtub. Of course, she doesn't plan to use the bathtub because it consumes too much water.
You can still play with water in the bathtub, and you don’t have to worry about using too much water. After all, the basin is only so big. Even if it is full, there won’t be much water, not to mention that it is impossible to fill it. After all, if it is full, the water will overflow when the child sits down. Generally, only half of it is enough, which is about thirty liters. In this way, the water level will be very high when you sit down.
Of course, Linlang would wash her in the shower before letting her get up, fearing that the bathtub would not be clean.
This alone saved a lot of water, and Xingxing didn't notice anything wrong.
As for Linlang herself, she had already started washing herself with a basin of water and rinsing it one last time instead of showering all the time.
These two things save a lot of water, because drinking water and so on usually don't require much water. The biggest consumption at home is taking a bath, followed by washing clothes.
The water consumption for bathing has basically come down, but the water consumption for washing clothes is difficult to solve. After all, we can’t stop washing, so we can only save as much as possible instead of washing every day.
Everything else in this world is good, except that drought has caused water shortages, so it has to be saved. Linlang has nothing to do about it. Fortunately, she has not been in a world with harsh environments, so she can bear it. After all, compared to the happiness of being able to draw a blind box , she can endure this hardship. After all, she knew what kind of world it was before coming to this world. Knowing that she would come again, she was naturally mentally prepared, so she could accept it at this time.
He didn't mention saving water, but he said that Zhang's father and Zhang's mother were still running out of well water, so they quickly stocked up on the water tanks Linlang bought for them.
And they also mentioned this matter in the village as Linlang said, and soon many people in the village also stocked up on water like them. Linlang heard about it and nodded with satisfaction.
Since everyone has stocked up on water, they don’t have to worry about others causing damage or asking Zhang’s parents to borrow water when there is no water.
Linlang stocked up on water. When Sister Zhang's family heard about this, they naturally stocked up on water as well.
But unlike Linlang, they had already started hoarding water, so it was already too late to start hoarding water. Soon, the state's daily ration for each resident would be reduced to thirty liters.
The country chose to lower rations at this time with some considerations in mind. It is winter and everyone uses less water, so everyone can still accept the reduction in rations.
By the time next spring has passed and summer has seen a lot of water consumption, we have already spent more than half a year at 30 liters per person per day, so we will probably get used to it and won’t be unable to bear it anymore.
Therefore, the country sometimes does things with consideration.
In fact, as far as she knew, the water supply in various parts of the country had problems for a long time. She just tried her best to survive the autumn. When she saw that everyone's water supply would decrease in winter, she immediately lowered the rationing.
Sure enough, in winter, people take less baths and wash clothes less frequently, so water consumption is not that great. Thirty liters of water per person per day is barely enough, so there are fewer people complaining.
But it would be a big disadvantage for Sister Zhang's family to hoard water.
In the past, one person used fifty liters of water per day, but they save. One person uses less than fifty liters per day, so they can save some and save it.
But now, it is difficult to save 30 liters of water per person a day, so how can we stock up on water?
So we had no choice but to break through the ration and buy water.
After all, if we don’t store water, God knows if the water company will still supply water if this drought continues. If there is no water by then, we will have to buy water through the sign-in system, and how expensive it will be.
——Although you can buy a water card through the sign-in system, the water in the water card is much more expensive than the water supplied by the national water company.
Of course, the main reason is that the water in the system water card can be drank directly. Like mineral water, it is naturally expensive; the water from the water company must be boiled before you can drink it, so it is naturally cheaper.
After breaking through the rationing, they spent a lot of money to stock up a house of water, so they couldn't go out to play. After all, how could they go out to play after all the money was spent.
But when the water was full, they looked at the full water and breathed a sigh of relief. They felt that it was a good idea to save money.
Linlang looked at it and nodded. She was very satisfied that Sister Zhang's family had also stocked up on water. After all, she didn't want them to have water. If they needed water, they would have to ask her or Zhang's parents for water.
Although there are six people in their family and they consume water quickly, it is better to stock up than not stock up. For example, my ex-husband’s family has not thought of stocking up water yet. They only think that each person still has 30 liters of water per day, so there is no crisis. feel.
Soon the drought entered its fifth year.
To be honest, in the fourth year, last year, the world was not doing well and it was a bit unsustainable.
Fortunately, the sign-in system came and supplies became abundant again, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
So although the drought has entered its fifth year and the water outside is becoming increasingly scarce, everyone is still less afraid because of the sign-in system.
Everyone was very afraid before, fearing that if the drought continued, there would be no water to drink sooner or later, and everyone would die of thirst, regardless of bathing or washing clothes outside.
But now, with the sign-in system, no matter how little water there is, it is impossible to use it for bathing and washing, but it is still not a problem to buy something to drink.
Since we are not dying of thirst, no one is afraid anymore, so country Z can continue to maintain stability and nothing happens.
