"Miss, since you are busy, I won't disturb you. Let's chat next time. Nice to meet you. My name is Lin Chuan!"
After the person on the other end of WeChat sent this message, there was no need to bother him again.
Qin Xingyue took it over and took a look, then put the phone aside.
It was now around three o'clock in the afternoon. Qin Xingyue took out her mobile phone and watched a TV show. After a while, there was movement in the community. She looked out the window and saw that the dozen or so people who had gone out at noon were back. The things he was carrying didn’t look very attractive and didn’t look very good.
Now that the snow in the community has almost reached the second floor, no one can go out through the previous way. They can only climb out from the window on the second floor. After they came back, many people gathered in the corridor on the second floor. , Qin Xingyue also came out to join in the fun.
Most of the people who went out were middle-aged men, who are the mainstays of the family. In this kind of weather, it was the men at home who went out, leaving their wives and children at home to look after the house. However, among the more than ten people, there were also a pair of young people, who looked like They were a newly married young couple, carrying things and leaning on each other.
In addition, there was a woman of about thirty years old. As soon as she came in, a boy of five or six years old threw himself into her arms: "Mom!"
"Didn't I tell you to stay at home and wait for your mother and not come out?"
The woman's tone was reproachful, but she hugged the boy tightly without letting go. She glanced at everyone and said nothing to them: "Let me, let me—"
She pulled the child towards the elevator, but in a hurry she bumped into someone. The boy took two steps back and was supported by someone.
"Xiaobao, are you okay?" the woman asked in a panic, and the boy shook his head: "Mom, it's going to happen, you don't have to worry!"
Then the boy looked at the person in front of him: "I'm sorry, sister, thank you, sister!"
Qin Xingyue let go of the other party, took two steps back, and nodded slightly: "Be careful in the future!"
The woman took the child, apologized to Qin Xingyue, and quickly entered the elevator.
Qin Xingyue didn't take this episode seriously. She stood in the crowd and watched the group of people waiting in the elevator surrounding the people who were coming back. However, they were not trying to grab anything, they were just asking for news from outside.
The faces of those who went out were not very good-looking. One of them, a shorter man, said: "With such heavy snow, cars can't drive outside. All stores are closed, and the nearby small supermarkets are also closed. All I have is The big supermarket further away is open, but there are so many people, it’s packed with people, and there’s nothing left to sell!”
"Now everyone is rushing to buy it, and supermarkets are urgently stocking up."
The face of the person who spoke was not good-looking. They went out despite the heavy snowstorm, and everyone was freezing to death, but they didn't receive many goods when they went out. I thought I would buy some things when I went out this time, and then I started to stay at home and wait until the snow stopped before going out.
But they only bought this little stuff, and it obviously wouldn't last long.
Hearing the news, everyone felt a panic: "Are there so many people rushing for goods? If we go out now, we won't be able to buy anything. If I had known, I would have gone out just now!"
It was nothing at first, but when they heard that many people outside were stocking up, they started to panic and regretted in their hearts.
"Humph, there are always idiots like this. Every time there is a slight disturbance, they start hoarding things crazily and causing trouble for the country. It is precisely because of these people that the market is disrupted."
Some people sneered, but the next moment they subconsciously asked: "Will the supermarket still be open tomorrow?"
Everyone looked worriedly at the dozen or so people who had gone out before. This was their concern.
"The supermarket has made a statement that they will not close down. It's just that there are many rumors about the end of the world and many people are grabbing food. I'm afraid they won't be able to buy anything!" It was the short man who answered everyone again.
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in silence, as long as it was still open for business, everyone was planning in their hearts to go out for breakfast tomorrow, and no matter what, they would stock up on some goods and come back.
"Isn't there anyone at the top to take care of this malicious hoarding of goods?"
A man in a suit with glasses pushed up his glasses and frowned.
Qin Xingyue recognized the other person. He was a lawyer from a law firm in Hai City. The Qin Group cooperated with their law firm and he had met him before.
However, in the eyes of others, she is just a small employee, and they do not recognize her.
"It's Lawyer Zhao!" The short man smiled enthusiastically and answered more positively: "Why don't you ignore it, but it's useless. There are so many people who can't control it. The people above have sent people to the supermarket to give orders. Supermarkets must remain open to provide people with daily needs, and the state will also provide support, so that everyone should not panic and buy their daily necessities rationally!"
"But there are not many people who stay sane, and they all want to stock up on their own. Many of them went late and couldn't buy anything. We are lucky!"
After hearing their words, everyone remained silent. Only the person who had previously accused continued to curse: "A group of brainless idiots, harming others and themselves!"
"Yeah yeah!"
Some people echoed, but most of them were silent. Their eyes flickered and they didn't speak.
Qin Xingyue stood in the crowd. Although what that person said made sense, at this time, no one wanted to buy more.
Let’s not talk about the strange snowfall, and everyone is panicking about what will happen. Even if the snow brings inconveniences now, such heavy snow is so cold, who doesn’t want to go out all the time, and wants to buy more while lying down, these are all human beings. It's normal.
Those who go out, they can't grab it, otherwise, if they go out, wouldn't they want to buy more things when they come back?
Those who didn’t say anything were probably making such plans in their hearts!
After understanding the situation and what happened next, Qin Xingyue didn't listen anymore.
If this happens, the state will definitely take care of it, but she knows that as the snow continues to fall like this, there is nothing anyone can do about it——
"Little girl, which floor do you live on? Why haven't I seen you before?" In the elevator, an aunt was chatting with Qin Xingyue.
Qin Xingyue glanced at her and didn't answer.
The aunt continued to ask: "Rich people usually live here. Are you having fun with your family, or do you live alone? Why didn't you go out to buy something today?"
Qin Xingyue looked at her and sneered: "Why, aunt, you are checking your household registration!"
"You little girl, my aunt is really caring about you. We all live in the same building. What's wrong with the caring words from our neighbors!"
"Auntie, how many people are in your family? Which floor do you live on? There is a lot of food at home. Can I borrow some?"
The aunt's face changed and she was so angry that she didn't speak. She glared at Qin Xingyue without saying a word.
