In the apocalypse of natural disasters, ordinary people can still live wonderfully
Chapter 121 Buying Coal 2
100 kilograms of grain is exchanged for 1 ton of coal, which is more or less.
Coupled with burning firewood, this 1 ton of coal can be burned for half a year.
I don’t know how long it will be cold this day. So the people in the village are also very confused and don't know how to decide.
"How to decide? How much food does your family have? Why are you so entangled? What if the cold weather lasts for ten or eight years? If you decide less now, it won't be enough.
If it doesn’t get cold tomorrow, no matter how much you order now, it’s too much. "There are those who think quickly, and when they see people struggling with something, they complain unceremoniously.
The person who said this ordered two tons. The family can still get 200 kilograms of grain.
The last batch of grain collected before the flood was not sold at all. Although it was not shelled and was not as delicious as refined grain, I was so hungry that I ate it even after it was ground into flour, and it made me even hungrier!
Now that 200 kilograms of grain is taken out, it won't hurt the family's muscles and bones, and it won't be a problem.
Besides, coal is still resistant to burning. It is indispensable for cooking and heating.
Buy some, nothing.
If someone takes the lead, someone will follow.
In just one noon, 320 households in the village also subscribed for 300 tons of coal.
Some people didn't buy it at all.
Such families do not have enough food.
Some people bought more than one or two tons.
Such families have plenty of food.
But no matter what, Fenghuang Village wants a lot of coal this time.
Wen's family had coal, which was not a sure thing at first.
Wenwu advised: "Let's be more careful. The coal at home must be used in a clear way. Otherwise, if we don't buy it at all, it will always be useful. It is easy for people to think too much and think how much our family has hoarded."
There is one thing about the old man of the Wen family that is particularly good. He is very obedient to good deeds and always listens to advice.
I thought what my eldest son said was very reasonable, so I ordered two tons.
After the subscription was completed, Village Chief Wen said that the fare for the Gu family should be shared according to the subscription amount per person.
A 9.6-meter heavy truck can pull about 18 tons of coal. Now no one checks the truck on the road, so let’s calculate it as one truck can pull 20 tons. For every ton of coal, you need to pay 5 kilograms of refined grain as fare.
When they heard that the fare was still required, everyone immediately quit.
"Village chief, this is wrong! We don't have much food in the first place, but we still have to pay the fare to buy coal?"
"Village Chief, there is a foreigner in the Gu family. Do you have to pay for the fare when using his car?"
"Village chief, go and talk about it. It's not easy for everyone, so don't ask for fares!"
......
Everything was said, and the village chief began to sweat more and more as he listened.
These people don’t know how to live or die!
"Okay! The Gu family doesn't owe you anything! If you don't want to use the Gu family's car, that's fine! The coal mine will deliver it to the coal mine. One cart of coal plus 200 kilograms of refined grain will be used as the fare! I don't know how big the car is. , it’s charged by the car anyway! If you agree, then let the coal mine deliver it!”
The village chief's words immediately made people dumbfounded.
Even the largest one of 13.6 meters can pull 30 tons of coal. But an extra 10 tons means an extra 100 kilograms of grain.
What if they deliver it in a small truck? Wouldn't that be more expensive?
This account can be calculated by everyone, and no one is stupid.
Hearing what he said, everyone started to flatter him again: "Look at this, village chief, let's use the Gu family to help deliver it. They are all from the same village. Wouldn't it be better to give this food to one of us?"
"That's right, people from your own village, don't worry!"
Look, a person's mouth has two skins, and it all depends on acting skills.
Just like that, the final amount of coal required was determined.
But there is too much coal. How to pull it out needs to be discussed with the Gu family.
Let everyone disperse. At three o'clock in the afternoon, it was still not too cold, so the village chief hurried to Gu's house again.
"My eldest nephew, the village has subscribed for 300 tons of coal. How can we get it?"
One trip is definitely not enough, so many trips are needed.
What Village Chief Wen actually wants to say is how to pull and protect.
Although the incident was too shocking when I came back that day, it also reminded the village chief that these things are probably very common outside.
The coal mine is not far from Fenghuang Village, about fifty or sixty kilometers away. It would only take about half an hour if we put it aside.
But now, let’s not talk about whether the road is good or not, but whether we can come back safely.
The Gu family has seen the world, and it will be safer with their protection.
But Village Chief Wen didn't dare to say this openly. He was still afraid of the Gu family in his heart.
The bright blood, although he was too far away to see clearly, was like the seductive rope that disturbed his dreams every night.
Gu Yuan also thought about safety issues.
"Uncle, go to the village and ask if there are any veterans. If so, let them escort the car." Gu Yuan suggested.
Needless to say, the Gu family cannot solve all the problems in the village, they need everyone in the village to take action.
If there are not enough manpower, the Gu family will make up for it.
We agreed on this, and finally agreed to run two to three times a day and try to finish it in 3 to 4 days.
Every day in advance, we collect the coal and grain that will be hauled the next day. After hauling it back, we unload it to the brigade yard, where the village chief watches the coal buyers haul it away.
After making arrangements, they dispersed.
The weather is getting cold too fast. During the day, it is fine from 11 am to 3 or 4 pm. At other times, it is so cold that no one wants to move.
When we set off for the first time, eight young men came out of the village to escort the vehicle.
The Gu family came out with Gu Yuan Wenwu, each driving a 9.6-meter heavy truck. The eight young people sat in two vehicles respectively.
Ouyang Sen drove the Hummer, took Gu Mi, and the four eldest children of the Gu family to escort the car from behind.
The night before departure, the Gu family each packed their own survival kits and weapons and equipment.
Everyone in the Gu family is used to different weapons.
Gu Mi often uses a pistol, a Tang knife, and a modified nail gun.
Ouyang Sen often uses a pistol, a dagger, and a modified nail gun.
Children prefer composite crossbows, and everyone has one in hand. The gun is a laser gun.
Laser guns have no recoil and require no bullets, but they are not weak at all. The kids love it.
Gu Mi’s was given to Yiyi, Wenwu’s was given to Youyou, Lin Xiao’s was given to Taotao, and Gu Yuan’s was given to Tiantian. The four eldest children all have guns.
Gu Yuan is accustomed to using pistols and military assassins.
Civil and military personnel are accustomed to using shotguns, military spurs, and modified nail guns.
This battle is so big that no one in the Gu family dares to look down upon it.
In addition to adequate weapons, protection should not be neglected.
Ouyang Sen was forced by Gu Mi to wear that armor.
The armor itself is heavy, but it doesn't look bulky when worn on it. Even if you wear extreme cold clothes outside, it won't be noticeable.
Others wore stab-proof and slash-proof clothing, then body armor, and finally extreme cold clothing.
Because the Gu family has airgel cold-proof clothes, they can wear a lot less clothes, but wearing them like this now only makes them look bloated.
It will be considered as wearing too much.
In addition to the exceptionally comprehensive weapons and equipment, the medicines are also supplemented with more trauma medicine.
There are also thermal patches and thermal blankets.
Everything was ready, and before departure, another box of machetes was dragged out from the bunker.
Those eight young men had returned from the army, and there were quite a few young people in the village who had retired from the army.
I just don’t know if they’ve seen blood.
But whether they've seen it or not, they have to take action when it's time to do it.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, everyone gathered at the intersection of the village chief's house.
There was no greeting, and the eight young students got into the car separately.
When they saw the machete at their feet, they were all stunned.
Is this what they thought?
Gu Yuan, Wen and Wu didn't explain much. They just said that they would act according to the situation.
As a result, the eight people who were originally relaxed became sinking.
