I will plant a field in the last days

Chapter 35 The so-called blocking is worse than sparing



The sun hangs brightly in the sky. This is the last sun we can see before the end of the world.

Jingshu's family came to Aijia Supermarket for the 17th day in a row. An S-shaped queuing barrier had been placed at the door since the day before yesterday. The parking area was full of people queuing. A few people came out and a few people entered outside. Maintain order in the supermarket and avoid causing chaos.

Jingshu's family waited in line for more than half an hour and still didn't get through the security gate.

"Mom, don't take the rice. Let's go home. It's already 30 degrees in winter. The sun is poisonous and there are so many people and the air is not circulating. You can see that several old people have suffered from heat stroke." Jing's father wiped his sweat, surrounded by Fortunately for those waiting in line, my daughter had the foresight to bring two high stools to the old man, and everyone around looked at him with envy.

"On the last day, I received free rice. If I persisted, I would get air conditioning when I entered the supermarket." In addition to being hot, Jing Nai was also very energetic. For this reason, Jing Nai was very strange. She could feel that her body was getting better and better.

As for Mr. Jing, he was having a lively chat with a young man in his twenties.

Master Jing: I can chat with anyone for five dollars, but I can’t chat with my son.

Jingshu closed her eyes and squeezed the pomegranate in space. She held a large glass of refrigerated watermelon juice in her hand and kept sipping it through a straw. Jingshu’s father said that he had been drinking for half an hour and he still hadn’t finished it. He was confused. Seeing that she was greedy, Jingshu stuck out her tongue and then handed it over to Dad Jing to finish the drink.

It took another ten minutes for the family to pass the security check and enter the large supermarket. There was a sea of ​​people inside. It just so happened that almost all the family, old and young, were here today, Saturday. There were people asking for prices, chatting, crying, asking for snacks, and even chatting with acquaintances when they met. Yes, the loudspeaker in the supermarket plays a recording of people saying they should hurry up and leave after shopping.

At this moment, people still have relaxed smiles on their faces, thinking about buying more food to stockpile on the last day. Those who have received the free rice will basically carry five or six bags of rice.

With a grain limit of 500 yuan, you can also buy six or seven 10KG bags of ordinary rice. An ordinary person's family has vegetables and snacks, and occasionally goes out to restaurants and orders takeaways. A 10KG bag of rice will last for several months.

Buying six or seven bags is not a problem for most people to last for a year. But without the use of non-staple food and vegetable and fruit snacks, food will definitely be eaten very quickly.

The supermarket has a sign: All items are available in unlimited quantities! The confidence is very high, but the price is not low.

There are long queues in the pork, beef and mutton section. The prices are rising higher and higher these days. I am afraid that if the price rises for a few more days, I will not be able to afford it, so I am thinking about buying a few more kilograms.

Prices in the aquatic and seafood area have also increased a lot. After all, you can buy them alive and keep them for half a month so you can eat them fresh at any time.

Logically speaking, the absence of sunlight for a month will have little impact on meat and aquatic products. However, as the price of vegetables decreases and prices rise, the demand will naturally shift to meat, aquatic products and even non-staple food and snacks. The demand for these categories will increase, and the prices will naturally increase.

Snack foods have increased by about 10%, and instant noodles have increased by a few cents.

There are more people in the vegetable section, and everyone buys basket by basket, but no matter how much they take out, they will make up for it instantly. The country has made months of preparations in advance and has been catching corruption for months, just because it is afraid that people will hoard it when the time comes. Grain is out of stock, and merchants bid up prices, leading to market chaos and panic.

Blocking is worse than sparing. Chinese people like to hoard food every time they encounter a disaster, right? Then stock up until you feel safe, until no matter how much you buy, the goods will be enough and the same as usual, and everyone will naturally feel at ease.

There is only one warehouse for Guangda Cabbage, and everyone buys it by the sack. Cabbage is durable, can be stored for a long time and is nutritious, so of course many people buy it.

"It's really annoying. A piece of Chinese cabbage costs 12 yuan. Before, it was only 2 yuan." Jing Nai didn't know the words, but she knew the numbers anyway.

"Didn't you say you can't raise prices?" Master Jing heard on the news every day that this kind of thing should be reported.

Dad Jing shook his head: "The price of vegetables has gone up in the past ten days. The price increase every day is normal. It goes up by a few cents every day. It's gone up. Just watch, the price will become more expensive in a few days."

12 yuan is really cheap, in a few months it will be hard to find even 1,000 yuan.

After receiving the rice, they walked around the supermarket again. Firstly, there were too many people and they had to wait for a long time to check out. Secondly, they found that there was nothing to buy. Jingshu and her family went home to pack things for Jing Naiye and Jingye. The couple wanted Go and stay at Third Aunt Jinglai’s house for a few days.

In fact, it is to separate Dad Jing and Master Jing for a period of time.

The old people have all experienced the famine years. They called their three aunts a few days ago. Jing Nai asked them to store more grain and order a variety of vegetables to take precautions. If it doesn't snow in winter, the harvest next year will not be good. Food prices will continue to rise.

Aunt Jingpan said that she was in the town and was growing vegetables at home. She had exchanged apples for a batch of grain in the past few days and asked Jingnai when she would come home and she would bring some grain.

The second aunt Jingzhao said that she also wanted to stock up more, but she was short of money.

Jing Nai and Master Jing were embarrassed when they turned on the hands-free phone. Jing Shu and her family were all there. After hanging up the phone, Jing's father asked Jing Shu to transfer 100,000 yuan. However, Jing's father had no choice but to borrow the money from Jing's father's withdrawal of shares to buy gasoline and other supplies.

Third aunt Jinglai lives temporarily with her daughter in a two-bedroom apartment in Wucheng. She has been doing shopping every day these days, saying that she also bought Jingnao and Master Jing's share so that the old man can live here.

"Grandma, if you stay here for a few days, you should come back."

"Okay, I have to help you with the live broadcast when the dark day is over. After living here for so long, I have to go and see your third aunt and your cousin Wu Youai." The old couple packed their simple luggage and took them with them. There were several jars of pickles and canned food, and spicy beef jerky for Dad Jing to deliver.

Jingshu also gave the old people some Guiling ointment mixed with diluted Lingquan, and asked them to eat a little every day. In this life, they are close, and there is Lingquan to change their bodies. They will never suffer from hunger or injury this time. died.

In the empty villa, Jingshu was left alone rocking on the deck chair in front of the fish pond. Jingshu's father set up a parasol. Jingshu drank shaved ice and yogurt and basked in the sun. From time to time, she dropped the bait and watched the ferocious fish snatch it. Food. So enjoyable.

Maybe, it really is the last time in this life to see the sun.

Jingshu was a little disappointed. She lay down until the sun went down and then completely closed the tempered glass cover to prevent it from being buried in the ground tonight. She took a lot of photos to take as a souvenir before going to cook. Dinner was chicken stewed with mushrooms, braised kelp black pork chops and clear soup. The portion of stir-fried lettuce was very large, and the whole family ate it up.

Jing's mother was not in a good mood these days and went to bed early. It must be because Yu Caini had to wear small shoes for her again at work, Jingshu thought.

Jing's dad freed up his hands and put the pots and dishes in the automatic dishwasher. He had to praise Jingshu for her thoughtfulness every day, otherwise it would have to be his job.

After checking the water source, food, poultry, etc. for the last time, Jingshu began to practice the Rubik's Cube space all night long. She really couldn't sleep. In this life, she would witness the end of the world.

Later, people designated January 1, 2223, the day when the sun lost its light, as the first day of the end of the world.
