Chapter 652: Chapter 653: It Seems Like Sothing is Missing
For a mont, the people in the safety zone were all stirred up, comparing the conditions for relocation and resettlent on the notice to see if their families qualified.
There were many who wanted to move down the mountain, but there were also quite a few who did not want to.
Having settled into their hos for half of the year, so did not want to go through the trouble.
After the governnt workers conducted their investigations, they found that quite a few families on the mountain had the foresight to store up a lot of dry firewood for the winter during the autumn.
Perhaps because of this, so people did not want to go down and squeeze into that tiny plot of land.
Besides, in this weather, to think about setting up a shelter from the wind and rain, where could that be done so easily?
The winters in City C are not as cold as in the far north.
So people thought, if they could make it through the winter and wait until spring next year, that would be good enough.
But when so people saw others stubbornly refusing to co down from the mountain top, they could not help but mock them behind their backs.
The location of their First District was already the best on the eastern edge of City C; their mountains were neither higher nor more dangerous than other places.
But in the end, it was still a mountain. When winter ca and the snow fell heavily, did they still fancy wintering on the mountain top?
They would do well not to freeze to death!
Hadn’t they seen that the governnt and military staff had all settled at the foot of the mountain?
They did not know what was attractive or repulsive.
In any case, there were all sorts of opinions, and both groups had their reasons.
People from the mountain top thought about coming down, reasoning that since they were going to find a new place downhill anyway, why not take this opportunity to move directly to the warst area at the bottom? It would save them future trouble in one fell swoop.
Therefore, the people at the foot of the mountain were overwheld with complaints.
Those above were dissatisfied, and so were those below. Compared to them, the people who had been living quietly at the mid-mountain were almost completely unresponsive.
Like the Su Shu family, the Luo Family, and the Ge Family.
The three families had t and, after discussion, concluded that it would be more tiring to move than to stay put; furthermore, if winter did co, living mid-mountain would be no different from living at the bottom, so there was no necessity to move.
Su Shu especially had no need.
Having finally settled here, she had rebuilt her house twice, and, moreover, everything in the house had beco handy to use.
As for heating, if it indeed beca very cold, she had ways to deal with it, so she had no thoughts about moving.
The situations of the other two families were also similar.
There was no movent from their three households, but in the surrounding area, a few families from the mid-mountain had been seen moving down.
As they were neither as conspicuous nor as nurous as those from the mountain top, the people in the middle part seed to have little reaction.
After about a week of relocation and resettlent, the citizens who had been living mid-mountain suddenly beca the ones living at the top.
And at the mountain base, since winter was coming, there would be no more risk of flooding, and the chaos outside the city was not as bad as in the beginning.
The governnt, in coordination with the military, expanded the safety zone a bit, which provided a lot of areas at the foot of the mountain for people moving down to live in.
Su Shu looked up from her courtyard towards the mountain.
“It suddenly got so quiet; it really takes so getting used to.”
Tang Zelin, who had co out of the house to move so things inside, laughed upon hearing this: “Now there will be fewer people coming and going in front of our house.”
“Yes, before it felt a bit annoying to be watched for no reason, but now that there are so many fewer people around, it feels like sothing’s missing.”
“You’ll get used to it after a while.”
“Hmm.”
The two of them moved the firewood Tang Zelin had chopped outside into the house, and Su Shu began to boil water and cook.
The door to the room in the west was open, where the three children were eagerly doing the howork left by old man Ge.
