Chapter 26: Water shortage
Why!
After listening for a while, Wang Tian sighed.
He looked at the door of the room and could hear the conversation in the living room, and the little cousin living opposite him should be able to hear it too.
My second uncle is not confused. Although he is a rural person, he has no great insight.
But the people in the countryside are smart and have no shortage of them.
The second aunt is the middle-aged silly white sweet who puts everything on her face.
There are ones to say one, twos to say two, and there are not so many colorful things.
Wang Tian was lying on the bed, and it was hard to say whether his second uncle was deliberately saying these words to him.
certainly.
My second uncle has no selfish intentions and regards him as his son before the end of the world. If he can get along with his cousin, he will definitely support him with both hands.
Let’s open the topic today.
It’s not like a temporary idea. I probably had this idea for a long time, but today’s time is more ripe.
Wang Tian was wading in the bed.
For a moment, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.
the next day.
When Wang Tian got up, his dark circles were very serious and he was a little listless.
There is also her cousin, who is still young, seventeen years old, and she is more beautiful than a flower.
In addition, it looks white and looks like a little panda, and it feels indescribable to be cute.
Looking at each other, Wang Tian and his cousin didn't say anything, which was a little embarrassed.
My second uncle sat on the sofa reading the newspaper, and greeted everyone like nothing happened: "Wash your face first, and you'll have a meal later."
"Dear residents, residents."
As he was talking, a radio sounded in the community.
"At 8 o'clock in the morning, all residents are asked to send representatives to the property to collect rations."
"The county's subsidy has been reduced. This week, each household will subsidize five kilograms of rice and three kilograms of white flour."
Listening to the radio, the Wang family had no reaction.
The second aunt even complained: "There are only eight kilograms of rice and flour in total, and it is still subsidized by one household. If there are four or five people, how can it be enough to eat?"
Adults have no vegetables, meat and eggs in a day, and they only need a pound of rice and white flour.
Modern people have a small appetite and even don’t eat, because the vegetables are full of oil and water, and they can eat enough after eating them.
There is no oil and water, just rely on rice.
Half a pound of rice and flour a day can last for most you won’t starve to death.
But that's it. Based on the calculation of the three, one person has half a pound of rice and flour per day, and three people have one and a half pounds.
You can get ten kilograms of rice and flour in a week.
Eight jin, the family of two is almost the same.
This is a family of three, four, or even five, so wait to go hungry.
"Did you notice it?"
Wang Tian frowned: "There are still some food, eight kilograms of rice and flour, and a family of three is enough to survive. It can barely be able to starve to death. There is no mention of the water on the radio."
"I didn't mention it."
My second uncle also agreed.
"There is no water in the county?"
Wang Tian and others looked at each other and had a bad premonition.
You should know that grain is easy to store. Even if the county’s grain warehouse is empty, the grain from major markets and grain and oil stores can be kept for two or three months.
Water is different.
It is inconvenient to store, especially when the reservoir is contaminated.
Water consumes faster and less than food, which is also a normal phenomenon in society.
"Food is easy to deal with. If you go outside, you will find it."
"The water won't work anymore. The water outside is polluted and people can't drink it."
"Just go out and find a bucket of water, one or two pieces of beer and drinks, which is not quenching thirst for the entire county."
Wang Tian's eyes were full of solemnity.
There are still a few people like him who go out every day, find whatever they lack, and are not afraid of dangers in the wild.
Most people hide at home if they can, and they don’t want to go to the dangerous wilderness.
Especially high-end communities like Jinhua Community, which have always been receiving relief from the county. Wang Tian suspected that the people in the community had never been to the wild.
Now, it's different from April.
In early April, the strong radiation outside turned into weak radiation, and many people went out to look for supplies.
Those who are close, easy to find, and easy to get, have all been taken away by these people.
The rest are farther, more remote and more dangerous villages. It is probably a difficult task for these big men in Jinhua Community to find them.
"Second uncle, let's go to the property management team in a while and check the situation."
Wang Tian said, then looked at his second aunt again: "Aunt, after I go out with my second uncle, please lock the door.
From now on, no matter whether it is strangers or acquaintances, as long as my second uncle and I are not at home, no one can open the door.
Looking back, I went outside to get some iron railings and other things. There are electric welding machines. There are two guardrails inside and outside the door. Safety should be put first."
If a person has no future intentions, he will have immediate worries.
Some things cannot be solved before they encounter them. We must learn to prevent problems before they happen.
The residents in Jinhua Community are either rich or employees within the system.
The water here cannot be supplied on time, so it is conceivable that the county has a shortage of water.
After breakfast.
At eight o'clock, Wang Tian and his second uncle went to the property.
When they arrived here, the property was already full of people.
Before the people arrived, everyone shouted: "Why are there only food and water? How can you let us live without water?"
"The county has no water now. Our Jinhua Community has twelve buildings, and it is really not available."
"The grain is here, everyone gets the grain with the real estate certificate. The problem of water depends on you."
"It's also difficult in the county now. It's very difficult. There's no water in the county. I can't make it for you, right?"
Zhao Gongwen was wearing a suit and holding a loud trumpet and talking loudly.
Around him, there were guards with live ammunition and the property itself’s community security guards.
Both sides maintained order together, and with the police sent by the county, the residents did not dare to take action directly even if they were emotionally excited.
"What should we do? No water will make us thirsty?"
The residents of Jinhua Community are used to being pampered and their first idea is definitely not to go out to find water.
Zhao Gongwen also knew the temperament of these people and said loudly: "The radiation is fading away. If you can endure it, the water in the reservoir will definitely be able to drink it in the future.
Even now, it is OK to drink a small amount, and the radiation is not as terrible as everyone thinks."
There was an uproar.
Everyone still doesn't buy it.
The reservoir in Jinhua Community is directly connected to the reservoir, and water supplies every day to help everyone solve sanitation problems.
The water directly pumped from the reservoir and flushed the toilet was OK, but I felt so burned when I washed my face, let alone drinking it directly.
Of course, it is okay to force drink.
The beast does not drink water in buckets, and does not drink contaminated water, but still lives.
As long as you are not afraid of illness or mutation, you need as much water as you pollute.
"If you make trouble again, write down all of you again. I'll see who makes trouble and don't give him food."
If it's not soft, then you can only be hard.
It's also strange.
People are just trying to eat hard but not soft. Seeing that Zhao Gongwen was anxious, the soldiers also showed their guns.
Look at me one by one, and I look at you, mania has been cured.
All are good citizens.
They were queuing up and receiving food, and they were all very well-behaved.
"This group of unruly people!"
Zhao Gongwen cursed and the people in charge of the property started to distribute food.
It was Wang Tian's turn, Zhao Gongwen glanced at him, calmly handed him a bag of supplies.
This bag of supplies looks a little more than others.
Wang Tian picked it up and it was at least eleven or two pounds.
Chapter completed!
