In the apocalypse of natural disasters, ordinary people can still live wonderfully

Gu Mi woke up in the morning and saw the group messages and videos. There was everything in the group.

"This is too exaggerated!"

“You can row at home now, and you don’t have to go out and spend money hahaha!”

"It will be flooded if it rains the next night. This community project is not good! Mine clearance, brothers, don't dare to buy a house here!"

"..."

No one will feel pain if the knife doesn't cut him.

When the south of the city was flooded, most people were still laughing.

Seeing the wanton jokes in the group, Gu Mi turned off her phone.

The rest of the Gu family also saw it and didn't say anything. After all, everyone was busy cooking, packing and organizing supplies.

On the second day of the heavy rain, some people in the group were already asking:

"Whose family has food? Please help, my family has run out of food."

There were not many responses, and a series of requests for food followed.

There are mostly young people in Heyuan, many of whom are office workers, who rarely open fires at home.

If you don't go out for three days, it's normal for your family to run out of food.

Those who are asking for supplies will be posting supplies.

The avatar with the name remark 11-2-801 sent to the group a photo of a cupboard full of instant noodles, followed by the sentence: "Sisters, I have so much instant noodles, is it enough for me to eat for a month?"

There are also those for drying vegetables and those in the refrigerator.

The tone of his words was filled with confusion and despair, and the supplies stuffed throughout the photo were a naked show off: Look, I have food, I can't be hungry!

Seeing the photos showing the supplies, Gu Mi immediately held a brief meeting with everyone on the 16th and 17th floors.

The meeting only said one thing: it is strictly forbidden to show off materials in any form or on any occasion.

The Gu Yuan family has the youngest twin, Feng Wa curiously asked: "Why can't you show it off?"

"Because when everyone has nothing to eat, but you go around showing off that you have a lot to eat, then others will come and grab it from you. Do you want your chocolates and candies to be snatched away?"

Feng Wa quickly said: "Of course not! I love chocolate and candies the most!"

Gu Mi looked at everyone seriously, "We don't know how long this rain will last, but we are already running out of food. I'm afraid this is just the beginning."

When a person is very hungry, anything is possible.

If you don't want to be targeted by hungry wolves then, don't do anything stupid now.

Like the people in the group who eat for free, if someone robs them, they will definitely bear the brunt.

Now people are just looking for food in the group to exchange for food. It is estimated that within two days at most, someone will knock on the door to borrow food.

Don't worry, the Gu family has food now, but no one knows how long the natural disaster will last.

When a person borrows from you, you borrow. When a group of people borrow from you, do you borrow?

Therefore, take care of your own material possessions, don’t reveal your wealth casually, and don’t act like a good person with good intentions.

Not everyone agrees with what Gu Mi said: "We are all neighbors, so that's not the case, right?" Lin Xiao was the first to object.

"Yes, we are all civilized people. It is possible to knock on the door and borrow food, but it is an exaggeration to come to the door to rob him!" Zhang Zhiyang followed closely.

Gu Mi didn't refute, and she looked at the others.

Gu Yuan and Wen Wu looked solemn.

These two have experienced severe beatings from society, and they can understand and agree with Gu Mi's words.

Gu Jia, Gu Li, Yu Fang and Linli looked stunned. They didn't quite believe that such a thing would happen.

After all, people who grew up in peaceful times do not have a deep understanding of evil.

Several old people looked worried.

The old people in the Gu family all came from difficult times, and everyone has a deep memory of hunger.

They know very well that when a person is very hungry, even his eyes are red, and he can do anything.

As for the younger members of the Gu family, they all looked relaxed.

These things are too far away for them to empathize with.

Gu Mi silently looked away and looked at Lin Xiao and Zhang Zhiyang calmly: "It is necessary to be on guard against others. We do not take the initiative to harm others, but we must not rush to let others harm us.

Take good care of your possessions, don't show off your wealth, and don't lend anything to anyone.

In special times, protect the people around you and don't harm yourself or your family because of an unintentional move.

It’s not easy to take care of a whole family. "

Lin Xiao and Zhang Zhiyang said nothing more. After all, everything is hypothetical now and there is no need to argue.

Moreover, they themselves have no habit of showing off. They all like to make a fortune in silence. Their subconscious rebuttal is just that they think Gu Mi is too whimsical.

Gu Mi also told Youyou and Yiyi to look at the few young ones and not to show off on any platform.

I even asked the two elders to check every small communication software to ensure that no one was in need of showing off their wealth.

It is worth mentioning that on this day, a wave of stocking began in the community.

After a wave of people begging for supplies and sharing supplies, someone said weakly in the group: "The first floor in the south of the city has been flooded. If the rain doesn't stop, will our area also be flooded? While it's still possible, Go out, do you want to go out and buy some food and come back?"

There are suggestions and naysayers: "How can we go out in such a heavy storm?"

"Let's go together. If we have more people to follow us and give each other a tug, we won't be blown away."

"If you don't stock up now, you won't have the opportunity to stock up later. Let's go, let's go!"

“I live alone, are there any neighbors I can stay with?”

"I also live alone, please join me!"

"Let's go together. Let's go now. See you downstairs!"

With such a call, many people in the community began to walk out.

Those with raincoats wore raincoats, and those without raincoats held umbrellas.

Carrying shopping bags, carrying backpacks, carrying shopping carts, shopping baskets, and even carts and trolleys, they were in groups of three, three, and five, supporting and pulling each other, and trudged out of the community in the storm.

The streets were empty. All the people who went out to buy supplies held hands and moved slowly against the wall. Many people connected themselves with their companions with ropes.

When it rains so heavily, people are basically not trying to avoid the rain. They are mainly trying to avoid the wind and the objects that are blown up and smashed irregularly by the wind.

The heavy rain was like bullets, hitting the water that was submerged up to the ankles, while the wind was beating people's bodies crazily, and the blown-over signboards made loud crackling noises.

Someone accidentally fell down and disrupted the formation. When the wind blew, a group of people tied by ropes were thrown out. They didn't stop until they hit a wall and one of them grabbed the security window. .

Under such a strong wind, they were like a piece of fluttering, rotten leaves worth mentioning, unable to control their bodies at all.

There are occasional vehicles driving on the sidewalk a few meters away, but they are all away from the wide and unobstructed road.

Even so, the car was driving very slowly. If it went a little faster, it would feel like the car would be overturned by the strong wind.

Being overturned by the wind is not the most dangerous thing. Colored steel sheets, neon signs, trash cans, etc. that are suddenly smashed down. These items that should have been left quietly in a certain place may cause a tragic car crash and death. .

Everyone on the street was cautious and extremely scared, but they had to keep moving forward.

Around Heyuan, there are several large, medium and small supermarkets and vegetable markets.

In such weather, every store was actually overcrowded.

Whether people's own awareness of the crisis has awakened, or they are coerced by people around them to join the panic buying process, people have begun to stock up.

Roads were blocked and goods could not be transported. Everyone rushed to buy supplies, and the prices of goods naturally increased.

Fortunately, except for fresh food such as fruits and vegetables, the price fluctuations of other goods are relatively small.

After all, China's national conditions do not allow people to make money while the country is struggling.

During the three-year epidemic in 2020, too many businesses paid high fines.

So this increase is quite down-to-earth.

Some people also complained that the price was too expensive.

When you complain about whether you should buy something or not, the item you are hesitating about has already been snatched away and placed in someone else's shopping cart.

Everyone is like a wealthy nouveau riche, working hard to move and buy things.

It’s just that many stores have significantly more security guards.

There were many security guards standing at the checkout and entrance, holding batons and wearing helmets.

And those small mom-and-pop shops are no longer watched by one or two people, but the whole family.

This posture made the atmosphere in Phoenix City North become more solemn by several degrees.

As hard as it was to go out, it's even harder to come back.

Fortunately, those who ventured out generally returned home safely.

Everyone is carrying a heavy burden, but there is less risk of being blown into the sky by the strong wind.

Large and small bags, waterproof bags, black garbage bags, colorful plastic bags, raincoats, etc., all items that can be used to keep out the rain were packed into the battle, covering all kinds of materials and being carried back to their homes.

Goods that could be used as food in various supermarkets are all sold short.

Those who are quick can carry home more than ten big bags of rice and noodles alone.

Food is the basis for survival during natural disasters.
