Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Ti Increase Chapter 38: Chapter 38: Ti Increase “Being careful is never wrong, those two are no good.”
“Yep!”
Song Yi didn’t get involved, he just dealt with the matter and went back.
However, he left Little One behind.
The dog looked like a wolfdog, quite intimidating.
Not to ntion others, Jhiang Yuan was really scared.
But, this added an extra layer of security.
The subsequent trades were much easier, though there was still so haggling, the whole process went rather smoothly.
During this ti, cigarettes and drinks were the most exchanged items.
There were also many others from different buildings, and Jhiang Yuan ant if they could make it, they should; otherwise, there wasn’t much she could do.
After all, the water outside had already reached the second floor, those who could get out were few and far between, or had kayaks.
Not until nine in the evening did the trading finally end.
Lots of good cigarettes ca out later, and she totaled sixty-four thousand yuan.
Adding to what she had left and so odds and ends collected, it was about eighty thousand yuan.
How should I put it, after eight hours, she was quite satisfied.
At night, Qin Yue made dumplings.
She and Xiao Nuan had already eaten, and then she made a new batch for the father and son.
“Mom, I’m going to take a plate next door, we got quite a bit from them today.”
“Okay, go ahead.”
Jhiang Yuan ca over to knock on the door, and also returned Little One.
Song Yi was also in his loungewear, thick pajamas, it was always odd to see him not slick and neat, dressed like this.
“My mom made dumplings, I brought you a plate, and this…”
As she spoke, she took out a sausage from her hand.
“Little One was a big help today too, I don’t know if it can eat this.”
So dogs eat dog food and are not given sausages, as they contain a lot of salt, which can cause tear stains.
“Thank you…”
As she spoke, she passed over the dumplings and sausage.
Little One’s eyes lit up, constantly watching from the side.
Song Yi casually tossed it, and the big fellow dashed out, catching the sausage in mid-air.
My God, if this corridor were any narrower, it probably wouldn’t have room to show off…
“It can even peel it by itself!”
Jhiang Yuan’s eyes also lit up, the dog was incredibly smart.
“Yeah, these dumplings are really delicious, tell my aunt thank you.”
“Not at all!”
Having said that, both returned to their hos, no, 2102 was one man and one dog.
The dumplings had a gourd filling, previously made by her mom, particularly fresh and bright.
Jhiang Yuan also finished off a large plate, then took Xiao Nuan back and put her to bed.
Because of the power outage, only a lamp was on in the ho.
After eating, it was turned off, the house indeed had power, but it was not easily used.
If people found out, it would be troubleso.
Children normally sleep at this ti, her biological clock was on point, she fell asleep before the story was finished.
Jhiang Yuan didn’t waste ti talking, she quickly entered the space.
This ti, to avoid the child seeing, she specifically ran into the bathroom before going in.
Eighty thousand yuan, eight hours, the exchange code is 9…
The countdown turned to 17 hours 53 minutes and 42 seconds…
She felt a particular satisfaction, but where should she get the rest of the money.
She wasn’t sure if she could access the bank, but she guessed its security system wasn’t sothing an ordinary person could crack open.
Moreover, she couldn’t let anyone else know, and she had to act alone, which was difficult!
Jhiang Yuan did not dare to waste ti and quickly ran to the yard to check on her hogrown bok choy.
“My goodness, how did these vegetables get so big?”
Yesterday they were just little leaves, but today they were as long as fingers; if one preferred them tender, they were ready to be harvested.
What’s going on, could it be the well water in this space causes the plants to grow rapidly.
Moreover, they were especially plump and tender, looking extrely delightful.
Jhiang Yuan found it incredibly strange and went over to the well.
The well ca equipped with a dew collector and a bucket; she scooped up half a bucket and observed for a long ti but couldn’t discern anything special.
She scooped up so water and took a sip; the well water was cool and had a hint of sweetness.
There wasn’t any special feeling, and with a skeptical attitude, she watered the bok choy again and then left the space.
The items inside had not been organized yet; it looked like she needed to find so ti to properly arrange everything.
Plus, she needed to get so shelves over, otherwise it would be difficult to store things.
She tiptoed into bed where her daughter was sleeping peacefully.
Silently, she turned on her phone; today, Xia Chaoyang had sent nurous friend requests again, said a lot, but she had not accepted any.
He was clearly after her supplies, even just cigarettes and drinks, but he wanted them.
The signal was also poor, intermittent, and she didn’t know if it was related to the power outages.
“Ergency help needed, who has nitroglycerin pills at ho, please help, my mom’s having a heart attack, I can give whatever you want, please everyone help.”
This was a ssage from the courier station, the person was from Building 9, in the sa building as Xia Chaoyang.
Jhiang Yuan had bought those pills before, but coming over to fetch them now would probably be too late.
If she can’t give a solution, then she should not offer hope.
However, human life is paramount, and she was still very anxious.
She kept scrolling through the ssages in the group, fortunately, soone in the neighboring Building 8 said they had it at ho, and he could co over to get it.
Next door, it definitely would be better than from her diagonally opposite side, also no need to cross the road; hopefully, he could make it in ti.
Jhiang Yuan turned off her phone and sighed.
Right now, everyone lacked the concept of an apocalypse: once it started, there would be no more good days ahead.
If there were any dical ergencies, that would be very dangerous; not to ntion that currently, ambulances couldn’t be reached, or even if they could be, they might not arrive.
Thinking of the feeling of watching a loved one slowly die was definitely more heartbreaking than heartbreak itself.
The next morning, the water was also intermittent, and issues which hadn’t occurred in a long ti arose again.
@everyone, stock up on water, do not spread rumors, do not create rumors, wait for national rescue, the property managent has not abandoned any residents.
Afterward, no matter what everyone said, there were no more replies, the sa routine as before.
Even if it goes without saying, it really was necessary to stock up on water.
Once Jhiang Yuan ca out, she saw her parents were already taking action, they weren’t in the group but they also had a sense of crisis.
“Daughter, hook up that big bucket in your bathroom to the water; the water’s being intermittent, I’m afraid it might stop.”
“Yes, let’s stock up, the property managent has already sent a notification.”
Jhiang Yuan took out her phone, wanting to show her parents, but discovered that there was trouble again in the group chat.
0401: “Is that supermarket by the property managent still open? There’s quite a lot inside, should we group up and check it out?”
0402: “Big brother, count in if you go, the property managent is guarding the supplies, unconcerned about whether others live or die, and yet they claim they won’t abandon any residents, it’s all just hot air.”
0801: “But it’s not that close over there, if possible, we could ask at the convenience store in Building 15.”
