Time flies so fast. In this hottest time, Jingshu insists on staying at home with the air conditioner on, drinking drinks, eating big meals, practicing the Rubik's Cube, drying vegetables, and taking a look at the trivial things happening in several groups, silently He doesn't talk when he's diving, and he won't go out even if there's nothing wrong with him.
People continued to die in droves. Three more people died in Jingshu Community due to long-term lack of water. When Wu Youai called to drag the corpses, it was said that adults had done it. They took them to the crematorium and fed them to maggots. The maggots were too disgusted to lay eggs. .
The water supplied by the government is getting less and less, and has been reduced by 100ml. Even the mountain spring water used by high-level government officials is almost gone. Now the rich no longer dare to take a bath casually. The Jingshu family no longer dares to take a bath and wash clothes. The clothes are all gone. Half the house is piled up.
Seeing that the last ton of water has almost reached the bottom, now I am digging water from the fish pond to irrigate the ground, and seeing that the water in the fish pond has gone down one level, Jing Nai is also anxious, but Jing Shu is the only one who is sitting firmly on Mount Tai, it’s time to eat It's time to drink.
All the major reservoirs in Wucheng are nothing but quagmire. Some of the water we drink now is simply filtered black snow water pulled down from the snowy mountains. It is said that it has a strong bitter smell and makes you want to vomit after drinking it. Jingshu knows The excrement of that carrion insect.
Don't ask Jingshu why she knew... ugh!
Now people in the group are asking every day why the water tastes so bad. After boiling, there are still many small black dots. Are they viruses or something like that? Then it took a long time for the government to say, oh, those are rotting corpses. Bug shit.
Jingshu's family stopped going to get water. Firstly, there was too little water. Secondly, there was too little water to irrigate. The animals still refused to drink the smelly filtered water from cans.
Outside the villa is purgatory on earth, and inside the villa is heaven on earth. In this apocalyptic life, Jingshu has successfully lived the life she wants.
Just when most people were about to collapse due to lack of water, governments across China finally received shocking news that the artificial sun would be activated.
The Wucheng government will officially launch the artificial sun on October 1st, the National Day. If we persist in the last few days, everything will be over!
At the same time, in order to ensure the normal operation of artificial solar energy, Wucheng has taken over all available energy sources, including oil, natural gas, coal mines, etc.
Operating an artificial sun is actually a process of nuclear fusion. The government has not revealed to the outside world that there is still a key technical point that has not been solved and it was forcibly built.
The consequence of this is that it is burning money like crazy every second. It does not achieve true nuclear fusion, but requires energy to drive it.
No matter how you say it, the artificial sun has given the masses a belief in living.
But as soon as the news came out, the group of Jingshu High School classmates exploded. The twenty or so classmates who originally went there last time invited some classmates who didn't come to buy the distiller, and then promoted it like crazy, with relatives pulling relatives and friends pulling friends.
Zhang Lingling was so busy every day that she was dizzy. In her previous life, Jingshu had already quit the group and she didn’t know what happened to her later. But in this life, she found out that Zhang Lingling had opened twenty banks in order to commit suicide.
A person can grow offline indefinitely with 20 work points, but her family opened more than 20 accounts and directly invested 400 work points in them, which means she has to attract 200 people to get back the money. She opens another account every time she attracts 10 people. Use the number to maintain the number.
But this group of high school classmates alone has brought her a lot of benefits.
After taking the distiller home, everyone happily followed the instructions and buried it in a deep pit, and there was water in the box the next day.
After the students took it back, they invited relatives and friends over to collect work points, and even sold their last belongings to buy such a thing. It was no longer important to develop the distiller later.
A few days later, a classmate asked a question.
"My distiller has been used for two days before I can collect a sip of water. Isn't the effect too tasteless?"
Zhang Lingling: "My house has a lot of collections, but you haven't arranged your place properly."
Nima-san: "That's right, we have three of them at home. Wouldn't it be nice to buy a few more?"
However, any group that has doubts will definitely speak the same voice and confront the enemy unanimously. Students who have doubts will have nothing to say. Regardless of whether the thing is good or bad, if you want to sell it to the outside world, you must say that the thing is good!
Even if the still is not good, everyone has a tacit understanding and never talks about its disadvantages.
However, today it was announced that the artificial sun will be used, and there will be no shortage of water in the future. This distiller, which is mainly a water collector, will become useless to people, because everyone no longer needs it.
So the group was clamoring and asking what to do.
"I only took back 10 points."
"I made a little over 10 cents, but it's a pity that my relatives haven't made it back yet."
Zhang Lingling: "@everyone, internal information, don’t be misled by the news. The artificial sun will not be launched until October 1st. It will take ten or eight days to start before there will be water. I don’t know how long it will take before it is distributed to the people. We There is still a lot of room for maneuver, so hurry up and close the line and don’t open another account!”
Wang Chao: "Received!"
The news of the launch of the artificial sun caused a sensation throughout China as soon as it was announced, and the subsequent notice about shortening the power consumption time again was a little drizzle.
Wu Youai: "@Everyone, because we need to supply artificial sun, the electricity consumption time in Wucheng will be adjusted from 18:30 to 19:30 in the future. It is not impossible to return to dark days after the artificial sun stabilizes. Anyway, everyone is now No cooking, no need to boil water for bathing.”
The power supply has been shortened from 2 hours to 1 hour a day, but everyone is already counting on their fingers how many days will it take for the artificial sun to start.
Wang Qiqi: "By the way, on September 29th, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Wucheng government opened a one-day buffet. It only takes 0.1 work points and you can eat all you can of various flavors of grain bugs."
Fat Girl: "That's great. You can eat salt and pepper grain worms again. It's great!"
Husband Zhang Bingbing: "Take my mother-in-law to have a good meal, I want to give the baby in her belly some nutrition."
On September 29, 2023, the Mid-Autumn Festival, Jing’s father picked up his uncle and his family and came to the villa again for a meal and reunion.
Originally, as usual, I was going to my uncle's house for dinner.
Although my uncle and aunt have become visiting specialists, firstly, they cannot cook because the natural gas has been stopped, and secondly, the supply of vegetables has been stopped, so there is really no food that can be taken out of the house.
Recently, Jingma's Agricultural Management Department stopped supplying vegetables to ordinary civil servants due to serious water shortages, and only supplies a few hundred people in the upper echelons.
The government replaced vegetables with rice, and each civil servant could receive two meals of white rice and a small piece of meat per day.
I don’t know how many people are jealous of this treatment and want to find a government job. The government wants to stimulate people. Only when the hierarchy is obvious can people be motivated to move forward.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, people admire the moon while eating at night. This time, of course, it is the same. The temperature during the day is too scary, so the meal time is naturally set at night.
