Chapter 82 Meeting a colleague 4
The morning sun shines through the windows onto the floor.
Yuan Xi stepped into the sunshine and looked at the bright weather outside the window, feeling much better.
"Sign in."
[Congratulations to the host for receiving a rain gear gift pack]
An umbrella, a raincoat, and a pair of rain boots.
Yuan Xi took it out and looked at it. The material was very good, but the logo on it felt like he had seen it somewhere before.
I took out my mobile phone and searched for it. It was a new product developed by a high-tech company. It was just put on the market a while ago. It is said that the boss of this company is a doomsday fan and a rich second generation who is not short of money. The quality of the product is widely praised. There are no other disadvantages except that it is expensive.
The price of this set of rain gear was displayed on the mobile phone page. Yuan Xi counted the price. It was seven figures. He didn't have seven figures in his current savings.
"Dad Tiandao still loves me."
[Your Tiandao daddy will run away on September 1st. Take advantage of now to get as much as you can. 】
"Too."
Thinking of yesterday's airship, Yuan Xi took out the list in a good mood and crossed out the rain gear column.
He saved himself some money, which he could use to buy some medicine. His body was still a little weak now, and it would not be good if he accidentally got sick.
He took out a breakfast packed yesterday from the ring, which was still warm. He left school after eating and started shopping according to yesterday's list.
When he first arrived at the wholesale market, he was a little surprised to find that all the shops were closed. Then he thought of something and turned back to the supermarket. The supermarket was overcrowded, and following the flow of people in, Yuan Xi also listened to the gossip, about the wholesale market being taken over by the state, and about the news on the Internet that the world was going to end...
Yuan Xi turned on his phone and thought it was a post he made, but found that it was not. The top trending search list on each web page was the rainstorm and natural disaster evacuation guide. The content was very detailed, and there was also a list of supplies. When Yuan Xi took a look, it was more detailed than he had compiled, and it looked professional. He couldn't help but wonder if this guide was officially produced.
"It seems that someone with a high position in the upper echelons of the country got the hint."
He felt a lot more relaxed. He had no doubt about the power mobilized by the state machine. This time, fewer people should die. As for not killing anyone, Yuan Xi had no such arrogant thoughts.
He pushed a shopping cart and started browsing the supermarket among the crowds.
The crowd was chattering, and there were a few elderly grandmothers in front of him. They might be a little hard of hearing, and all of them had loud voices.
"Why are there so many people today? I'm so crowded."
"You don't know yet. You don't like to surf the Internet at first glance. You are not fashionable at all."
"There is news on the Internet that it is going to rain heavily, so everyone should come and stock up some things to go back."
"Let it rain. Who has never seen a heavy rain?"
"I heard it's going to rain for several days. The roads will be flooded by then, so I won't be able to stock up on food at home."
"..."
As they talked, several old ladies may have felt a sense of crisis, and they went straight to the rice, flour, grain and oil area one by one. Their fighting power was amazing. They broke out of the encirclement and grabbed two bags of rice each. In the blink of an eye, the shelves were empty. The supermarket staff had no time to put new products in and pushed a pile of goods, but the shelves were empty before they even reached them.
Yuan Xi didn't buy anything. In the shopping cart, there were only some high-calorie snacks such as chocolate, a five-pack of instant noodles, and a few compressed biscuits. The main reason was that he couldn't steal them from others, which was a sad fact.
There was a long queue at each cashier's side. Yuan Xi randomly picked a queue and pushed the shopping cart to the end.
"Why did you buy so much instant noodles?"
A girl with a sweet-sounding voice complained to her boyfriend.
Her boyfriend was also a little embarrassed, "I just saw a lot of people grabbing them, so I just grabbed a few bags."
"What's so good about instant noodles? It's the same today. It's annoying to go shopping in a supermarket with so many people. My favorite potato chips are all gone."
"It's not like people on the Internet are saying there's going to be a heavy rain, so everyone comes over to stock up on things and go back."
The woman said with disdain: "These are all rumors. You don't believe it, right?"
Her boyfriend really believed her, but seeing that his girlfriend looked unhappy, he still chose to agree and comfort her.
When it was the young couple's turn to pay the bill, the woman returned several bags of instant noodles. Her boyfriend hesitated to speak, but in the end did not refute her.
Yuan Xi, who was standing behind them, took one look and smiled as he put three bags of instant noodles into his pocket. Some people believe it and some don't. This is normal. I hope they don't regret it when they think about it in the future.
After coming out of the supermarket, he went to the drugstore, but the purchase was restricted and he had to register to buy. Looking at the scattered medicines on the shelf, Yuan Xi temporarily put them down, complained in his mind about how fast the country was moving, and turned around to leave the pharmacy.
Back in the dormitory, Yuan Xi was thinking about whether to leave early for the university school. There were too many changes now, and he was really worried that the traffic would be restricted and he wouldn't be able to go if he wanted to.
As for other supplies, Yuan Xi looked at the sparse supplies in the ring and didn't feel panicked. The same goes for buying over there.
Yuan Xi bought a plane ticket online and left in the afternoon.
Before leaving, I called Teacher Li and learned that Teacher Li was going to the capital in the afternoon. The two exchanged a few words and then hung up.
At noon the next day, Yuan Xi set foot on the plateau land. At the same time, he signed in and received a batch of medicines. Based on a hundred years of life, he could use them until he died.
After a few days, he signed in and received items such as clothes, tissues, food, fruits, etc.
Looking at the thousands of dollars he had left unspent, Yuan Xi bought a little every day and all of them were compressed biscuits. A small piece contained a lot of energy.
The unrest online has continued, with the government silent, without acknowledgment or denial.
But on the day Yuan Xi got off the plane, the government controlled traffic. A large amount of materials were moved from the coast to the inland every day, and some important people or objects were constantly evacuated from the coastal areas. This attitude is basically made clear, and those who have the courage to move directly move their homes and drive their families inland.
Different from the silence on the Internet, in reality Yanguo struck hard, and the army entered the scene to suppress all unrest.
If only Yan State had mobilized troops on a large scale, there would have been an international uproar long ago. But now, all countries are too busy to take care of themselves and are taking the same action as Yan State, evacuating from coastal areas.
The land and ocean area of this small world is 50/50. The five major countries have a vast land area, and some of them have coastal areas. Compared with the southern coast of Yan Kingdom, Feng Kingdom has more coastal areas. At this time, it is already very busy and its actions are more aggressive than other countries.
Other small countries are struggling to survive and dare not say a word.
Those countries that are inland are okay, but several island-type countries are a little shivering at the moment. The mood of the people in the country is unstable, there are demonstrations and protests everywhere, and the number of people who want to immigrate has increased sharply.
