After riding for a while, Yan Qingyang is also tired. He spends a lot of time in the office, and his physical strength is not very good.

The two had to take turns to ride the bicycle, Wei Yan snorted slightly in his heart, this man looked tall and tall, he just embroidered a pillow without thinking, he was far worse than his elder brother.

Arriving at the village committee, Yan Qingyang made a glass of lemonade in an enamel cup. The lemon was grown in his yard and the honey was bought years ago.

Now where these two things are sold in the market, he usually only brings them out to entertain the leaders, but today he has said everything, and it is not easy to break his promise.

Wei Yan gulped down the cool water in his kettle, took the lemonade and poured it into the kettle: "Thanks, bye."

Yan Qingyang stopped him: "Don't go to the hospital, the hospital is not very clean now", many people died in the hospital, and the ground was soaked in blood, this person looked like a bitch, he was sure to run fainted.

"Oh, I see."

Wei Yan waved his hand without looking back, telling him not to go, but he decided to go and have a look.

The town is very empty, many doors are closed, and two sporadic fruit and vegetable shops are open, and there is no business.

You can only meet people by riding a long distance, and the people you meet are all in a hurry.

Broken plastic bags fluttered in the wind, creating a bleak scene.

Wei Yan drove to the gate of the hospital.

The rotten smell hit his face.

The stainless steel automatic retractable door was covered with a thick layer of dust, with dried blood stains faintly visible.

What a familiar smell of the end of the world.

Wei Yan stood at the door for a while and then left. He went to the supermarket to look again. The big roller shutter door of the supermarket was not opened, only a small door was opened. There was a poster by the door.

It says: In special period, the supply is insufficient, only the following items are provided, please understand

Local rice - five yuan a catty

Salt - [-] yuan a bag

Flour - five yuan a catty

Corn kernels - three yuan a catty

Seeing corn kernels, Wei Yan felt a toothache. Corn is easy to grow and has a high yield. In his previous life, after the end of the world, he ate most of corn.

It's not the sweet and glutinous tender corn, but the old corn that farmers planted in large quantities to feed pigs before the end of the world.

Not to mention the taste, your teeth will collapse if you eat it too fast.

That's it, I couldn't eat it for long.

As the situation got worse, the pure corn tortilla at the base began to be mixed with ground straw and wild vegetables.

After eating for about two or three months, the multigrain tortillas were gone, and corn mush was provided instead.

Then came corn soup.

In the whole bowl of soup, there are not a few corn kernels visible. After drinking it for half an hour, it will disappear as soon as you urinate.

Several people lined up to buy things.

The salesperson yelled loudly not to jump in line: "Come one by one, don't worry."

"Why can only local people buy it, and I don't want your money."The speaker was a young woman who had just reached the front of the line.

"There is nothing we can do about the above regulations," the salesperson was also very helpless.

"Then buy it with my man's S ID card, okay?"

"No, you have to come in person and bring your S ID card and the certificate stamped by the neighborhood committee." There are so many people these days, and whoever knows if any card is true or not.

The woman frowned, and left reluctantly, Wei Yan turned the car around, and began to restrict purchases so early?

When he got home, Wei Yan grabbed two handfuls of mung beans, washed them, put them in the rice cooker, and pressed the soup button before turning to find the dog man.

Wen Rujue was climbing the fruit tree to dig out the sparrow's nest. He had already removed half of the weeds in the orchard, and he could do it for another two days tomorrow. Then he drove out to see the situation. If the situation was not good, he would cut down the fruit tree and replant it. Order rice and wheat or something.

"Bro, open the door."

Wen Ru numbly jumped down from the tree, and said vigilantly: "Yanyan, I don't need your help, you go home."

Wei Yan: "..." No one cares about helping you.

"Can you open it or not?"

"Open", Wen Ruyi opened the iron door a crack, and handed out the sparrow eggs as if offering a treasure: "Yanyan, here, take it home and bake it."

Wei Yan took the sparrow eggs and swallowed his saliva. Their family didn't feed poultry, so they had to buy from the Jiang brothers after they finished eating the duck eggs.

It is also difficult to buy. The supermarkets are out of stock, and the villagers do not feed many chickens and ducks at home. In addition, the feed is poor, and the animals do not lay much eggs. Occasionally, they eat the eggs themselves, and they hardly sell them.

"No baking, I want steamed egg custard."

"Okay, you can figure it out."

"Have you finished your work here?" Wei Yan stepped on his feet and wanted to poke his head in, but the dog man blocked him so he couldn't see inside.

"almost."

"Then take your S ID card and go to the supermarket to buy something. I just went around the town and the supermarket is open."

"Okay", I don't know if the supermarket sells Coke now, my wife likes it very much.

"First go to the village committee to issue a certificate. If there is no certificate, the supermarket will not sell it."

"understood."

Wen Ruxuan originally wanted to drive a pickup truck, but there wasn't much gas in the car, and if he didn't fill up the gas, he wouldn't be able to drive back, so he had no choice but to ride a bicycle.

Cycling to the village committee, only Yan Qingyang was working alone, and there were quite a lot of villagers queuing up to issue certificates.

It seems that everyone knows that when you go to the supermarket to buy something, you need a red stamp.

The aunts said so much that they spit all over the place: "Oh, it's not that I don't give money, but I have to issue a certificate before I'm willing to sell it."

"I don't know who's insane set the rules. I made two trips today. The first trip said I needed an S ID card. I got it at home, and then said I needed to prove it. Isn't this intentional to torment people? "

"You can't say that. The new regulations have only come out, and the supermarkets haven't fully understood them. They just want to make money, so they will deliberately push customers out."

"There is no money to make. I have a niece who works in a supermarket. I heard from her that their current wages are all paid by the Z government, and the goods are also sold on behalf of the Z government."

"That's it."

"Think about it, everyone is holding back at home. You don't plant land, and I don't plant land. Where does the food come from? It wasn't stockpiled by the Z government before."

"No wonder, I just said it was a bit stale."

"It doesn't feel as good as before. In the past, the three of Jiang's family still delivered things to the door."

"I think it's good now. I'm so bored at home, and running a few more times is just like exercising."

"Too."

"Ask your niece for me if the supermarket is still hiring. My daughter is idle at home and has nothing to do."

"No, it seems like they are going to lay off staff again."

"What?"

"The goods are scarce, so many people are not needed, and you are paid when you have nothing to do? Where did such a good thing come from?"

"Just cut it, and you won't be hungry when you go home and farm."

"Where does my niece know how to farm, and their young generation can't tell the difference between beans. Last year, my family collected edamame and gave some to her. Guess what she said?"

"What?"

"She asked me if the edamame was fried like pea chips."

"and then?"

"I said no, edamame is boiled and eaten. She also thought it was very strange, how can there be two ways to eat the same thing? I said that edamame and pea slices have nothing to do, and she asked me, isn't the pea slices grown up to be edamame?" ?”

"Oh, I laughed so hard."

Wen Ruzhuan heard something else. Now that the plague is gone, the market is slowly recovering, and the number of customers in the supermarket will only increase day by day. Why should we lay off staff at this juncture?

Scientists have discovered something new?

Before, some experts on the Internet who didn’t know the truth said that global warming caused the melting of glaciers, which would release prehistoric bacteria and viruses in the permafrost.

Is this plague related to global warming?

Is a new plague coming again?

I hope he's just overthinking it.

Yan Qingyang was very happy to see Wen Ruxuan, and showed his big white teeth in a smile, stamped the certificate neatly and handed it to him: "There is ink pad over there, you put your fingerprint on the signature place."

"okay."

"Are your grapes ripe? I want to buy some."

"No, the vines are all dead, where did the grapes come from?" The grapes in the orchard were robbed of nutrients by weeds, and they were all withered. I don't know if using psychic liquid can save two of them. My wife was still saying a few days ago Want to make wine.

"Where's the strawberry?"

"There are still a few alive."

"Then it's settled, let me know when you're familiar."

"Well, let's say it first, I don't charge money, you can exchange it with other things."

"Can I get some salt?" The town's well salt field has already started work, so he should be able to get some.

"can."

"By the way, do you want ducklings? My mother hatched some ducklings."

"Yes, I'll exchange it with watermelon, okay?" I changed back to raising duck eggs.

"You still have watermelon, fine."

After pressing the fingerprint, Wen Rujuan hurried to the supermarket, it was getting dark, and his wife was timid, so she would definitely be scared if she was alone at home.

Before the last ray of light sank to the horizon, Wen Rujue returned home, and Wei Yan rushed to meet him: "Why did you come back so late?"

"Queuing delays time."

"What did you buy?"

"One catty of rice, one bag of salt."

"Why don't you buy more?"

Wen Ruxuan also wanted to buy more. After traveling so far, he was hungry, and the rice he bought was not enough for a day: "The others are out of stock, and the purchase of these two items is limited."

"Oh, go wash your hands and eat."

Dinner is fried bacon with hot pepper, steamed custard, mung bean soup and cold eggplant. The tender eggplant is picked and steamed, torn into strips, mixed with ginger garlic vinegar and chili oil, and finally sprinkled with a little shallot, which is appetizing and refreshing.

Wen Rujuan doesn't like spicy food very much, and every bite of eggplant has to be a mouthful of mung bean soup.

The mung bean soup only puts a little sugar, and the sweetness is light, but the soup is very thick, and it is full of mung beans in one bite. It must be delicious when frozen into popsicles. It is so warm and I want to buy a refrigerator.

Forget it, my wife is definitely not allowed, the family has little money, and there are power outages every three days, so buying it is useless.

"Honey, I want to buy some duck cubs to feed."

"Buy it", Wei Yan suddenly thought of the delicious roast duck, and after a while of fantasy, he thought of the practical problem: "But now I can't buy feed."

"It's okay, I have a solution." It's enough to urge a batch of rice with psychic liquid. Besides, he doesn't plan to feed the grain all the time. It's so beautiful that they will be pulled when they are full at home, and they will all be thrown into the river when they grow up. to find food.

Wen Ruxuan said he had a way, Wei Yan didn't ask too much, he had a kind of blind trust in the dog man, this man who saved him in his previous life and raised him in this life, although he is inconspicuous now, will shine one day Ten thousand zhang, sitting in a position that is difficult for others to reach.
