Chapter 336: Donation for Disaster Relief
The entire Chaotianmen Street is very deserted, there are very few shops open for business, and there is hardly a single pedestrian to see.
Bai Xiaobai knew that today's turnover would definitely be affected, but there was no one, which really made him a little stunned.
Gao Chao was eating breakfast, and suggested "Bai Xiaobai, I think you will be closed for a day today, there must be no one patronizing the typhoon day, basically nested at home, I watched the evening news yesterday, and today the school, the city government, and most private companies will have a day off." ”
"I also heard the radio in the morning, and it seems that this typhoon is terrible. Bai Xiaobai said, pulled down most of the roller shutters, picked up his mobile phone and started playing games.
There was a lot of wind and rain outside, and there was a banging sound constantly hitting the roller shutter, just like the sound of a small steel ball hitting the iron door, which was very brutal.
Bai Xiaobai suspected that it was not raining, but hailing.
It was a stormy morning and rainy, and Chaotianmen Street was covered by dense rain lines, so I couldn't see anything at all, and I didn't know how many millimeters of rain had fallen.
Naturally, not a single customer came to Xiaobai Restaurant in the morning.
Although according to the current flow of consumption, Bai Xiaobai can probably make tens of thousands of dollars in one morning.
This also means that he has lost at least tens of thousands of RMB today, but he is also happy to be idle.
It's rare to be able to stay in the store all day with nothing to do, which is actually quite good.
Although the rain was heavy, the good news was that the power supply was normal.
Bai Xiaobai comfortably picked up his mobile phone to play games in the hall, while Gao Chao took down his laptop from the second floor and also played online games.
The two of them sat together all day, and the wind and rain outside not only did not stop, but became stronger and stronger, like the end of the world.
According to the broadcast, the typhoon will not make landfall until tomorrow.
It's so big now that it's not officially logged in, and if it really lands, it's okay.
Bai Xiaobai and Gao Chao had a lunch break all day long, or they played with mobile phones and computers, but they also had a good time.
However, the area around the river and sea is miserable.
This is especially true for the low-lying urban area due south.
Flooding in several cities here has caused powerful floods, submerging nearly half of the city, paralyzing electricity and water supply, and people climbing onto rooftops to call for help.
In Bai Xiaobai's hometown, the situation is not optimistic, his hometown also broke out a powerful flash flood, many houses were washed away, and the flood swallowed up living people like a beast.
An unprecedented flood struck most of the province.
Huaxia TV media have never really broadcast the data of natural disasters, even if the situation is very serious, they will broadcast it more obscurely, for fear of causing panic and shaking people's hearts.
So when Bai Xiaobai had dinner in the evening, he watched the latest related news, but he learned that the south urban area of Jianghai City had been seriously flooded, but he didn't know that most of these places had been flooded.
In the evening, after business hours.
All day today, there was not a single customer in the store.
It is comparable to the first time when the Supreme Tea Egg was launched.
When Bai Xiaobai closed the roller shutter door of the store, he found that the water on the street of Chaotianmen Street had accumulated deeply.
The rain did not tend to get smaller, but it became heavier and heavier.
It's pouring rain, which is rare in the world.
Bai Xiaobai was a little worried.
If this continues, it will be a matter of time before it floods the store.
At this time, a cold electronic sound sounded in my head.
[The host does not need to worry, the floor tiles of the store contain special black technology, which can automatically discharge the flood water into the store into the ground silently. 】
The universal system is as awesome as ever.
Since the system has said so, Bai Xiaobai can sleep peacefully.
Speechless all night, the rain kept falling, crackling, Bai Xiaobai saw the rain so hard for the first time in his life.
In the sound of rain, Bai Xiaobai slept in clothes.
The next day.
Bai Xiaobai got up early in the morning as always.
The heavy rain was still pouring outside the window, and when I opened the window, I saw that the water on Chaotianmen Street was quite serious, reaching above my knees, and almost flooding the store.
After washing up as usual, he went downstairs and Bai Xiaobai entered the glass kitchen to make breakfast.
Turning on the mobile phone radio, Bai Xiaobai learned that several counties in the suburbs of Jianghai had been flooded, and the damage was very serious, and some areas hit the highest in history.
The state has launched a first-level disaster response, dispatched a large number of officers and soldiers of the armed police on active duty to organize disaster relief work, and called on people from all walks of life to actively raise donations for disaster relief.
All kinds of stars of Chinese film and television songs, and sports athletes have posted on Weibo, similar to Jiang Hai holding on, praying for peace.
Among them, Chen Bingbing, a famous film and television singer, has decided to fly to Jianghai to participate in the "Light Up Love" charity party held by Jianghai Satellite TV.
Bai Xiaobai didn't expect that this typhoon would be so serious that even Chen Bingbing personally came to Jianghai to help the party.
Because of the large amount of water on Chaotianmen Street, from morning to noon, Xiaobai Restaurant is still full of customers.
At noon, Bai Xiaobai and Gao Chao had lunch together.
Because there were no customers, Bai Xiaobai didn't bother to go into the kitchen, and made lunch with Gao Chao with a bucket of instant noodles.
Although instant noodles are not very healthy, it is good to eat them once in a while.
The rain outside was still falling, and I couldn't stop at all.
Gao Chao held a laptop and watched CCTV news live while eating instant noodles.
Bai Xiaobai also came forward and looked seriously.
The camera of the news program directly hit the county seat where Bai Xiaobai's hometown is located.
Because the camera captured the landmark buildings of the county, Bai Xiaobai recognized it at a glance.
The picture shows the flooding situation.
The vast rural areas under the jurisdiction of Bai Xiaobai's hometown county are already in a vast ocean.
The flood almost submerged the roof, leaving only the top layer of the eaves to be seen, and people and pigs, as well as poultry, stood on the roof waiting for rescue.
Officers and soldiers of the armed police paddled rubber boats, constantly going back and forth between the low eaves to rescue people.
Everyone affected by the disaster, men, women and children, burst into tears and was speechless in front of the reporter's camera.
At the end of the news, the news called on people from all walks of life to donate to the Jianghai Red Cross Association and do their part for the disaster area.
After reading the news, Bai Xiaobai asked Gao Chaodao, "Gao Chao, your hometown is also XX County, have you made a call back to ask about the situation at home." ”
Gao Chao's face was calm and said, "My house is on Huayan Mountain in the county seat, it is a villa, and the family has already said that it is fine." ”
It's no wonder that Huayan Mountain is the highest peak in Bai Xiaobai's hometown, if it is all submerged there, then the cliffs in the county seat of his hometown will be gone.
Bai Xiaobai saw the flooding in his hometown county, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
The flood is merciless.
Bai Xiaobai's grandmother also died in a major flood in 98, so he was very touched.
Now that there is another once-in-a-century flood in his hometown, Bai Xiaobai decided to donate money to his hometown and do his part.
