Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Dispute with Lianmei
The words of the rich second-generation Lin Hao directly made the entire chat group explode!
"What? A pack of instant noodles for 2,000 pieces? I...... Did I hear me right? ”
"Hey, don't raise prices like this! I'm a little scared. ”
Some people trembled and said, "The snow disaster will definitely pass, right?" There's really no need for that. ”
He sent a voice, but the trembling tone already explained the panic in his heart
People have not given up hope completely, and every morning they open their eyes eager to see the snow stop, the sun rise, and return to normal life
However, the incident of Bao Ma Xie Limei and the rich second generation Chen Hao buying food at a high price deeply touched the already fragile string in their hearts
Someone pretended to be calm and said, "Don't be kidding, a pack of instant noodles for 2,000 yuan?" I really thought it was the end of the world, hahaha! ”
"It's just that the snow is a little bigger, and this year's winter has come early! It's not a zombie siege, as for it! ”
When Zhang Yi saw this news, he chuckled and shook his head
Zombie siege?
Don't compare that low-end thing to this icy apocalypse
Although zombies are terrifying, they are still something that can be fought against by manpower
However, in the face of natural disasters of nature, small human beings are as fragile as insects in the face of the power of the universe
They don't know what terrible catastrophe they are facing
Xu Hao said arrogantly in the group: "Don't worry about so much! Anyway, I just have money, can I spend money to buy a peace of mind? If you are willing to sell, you can send me a private message, and if you don't want to, pull me down! ”
Xu Hao pretended not to care
But Zhang Yi had already seen that his indifference was all a disguise, in fact, he had already begun to be afraid
Otherwise, he would not have been able to offer a sky-high price of 2,000 yuan for a pack of instant noodles!
It's not hard to think about
Although Xu Hao is very rich, he is worth hundreds of millions
But at the moment of the end of the world, let alone enjoying the life of the rich in style, he can't even order a takeout
Rich people may not be kind, but they are definitely not stupid
Xu Hao, who realized the severity of the crisis, began to buy materials from his neighbors at a high price
Bao Ma Xie Limei said excitedly: "You...... How can you do that? Our family has nothing to eat, and buying food is life-saving
Xu Hao said very shamefully: "I didn't rob you, it's just that I offered a higher price, and it is their freedom to sell to whomever you want to sell." Can you handle it? ”
Xie Limei saw that Xu Hao didn't bird her, so she cried in the group: "Please help us, my daughter is only nine months old." I don't have anything to eat, so I don't have milk for her. We're both going to starve to death! ”
In the group of owners, there was silence on Xie Limei's words
At this time, the selfish side of human nature is vividly displayed
Xu Hao is the price of 2,000 yuan for a pack of instant noodles!
The price you Xie Lihua gave was only half of what they were
You must know that the per capita salary level in Tianhai City is only 5,000 yuan
Who wants to sell you the materials they have worked so hard to save at a low price?
Many people had already chatted with Xu Hao in private, and then began to talk about transactions
Xie Limei seemed to realize what was happening, and continued to cry in the group, begging everyone to help her
But there was still no one who spoke, not even one who comforted her
After all, if you open your mouth, Xie Limei may feel that you are soft-hearted, and then bite you to death!
This helpless mother cried bitterly
She has an eight-month-old child and now struggles to take care of herself, let alone a baby who is completely incapacitated
In Zhang Yi's mind, memories of Xie Limei in his previous life emerged
He didn't have a deep impression of Xie Limei, because this woman has always been shown as a weak mother
relied on this to win sympathy and survive in exchange for supplies
However, there is one thing that is very bizarre
In Zhang Yi's memory, she and her daughter knew that they were all living well
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi's eyes flashed with a gleam
This woman is definitely not as simple as it seems, everything pink is black when cut
When she died, she probably got a piece of the pie
Zhang Yi understands that in the last days, the heart of the Virgin Mary is the biggest factor causing death
Therefore, he didn't say anything and chose to look at Xie Limei coldly
There are too many people who have died in the last days, and he just wants to take care of himself, and as for the others, if they die, they will die
However, Xie Limei's crying finally played some role
Uncle You, the security guard, relented and finally agreed to give her some food
Xie Limei thanked Uncle You for her kindness and claimed that she would never forget his kindness for the rest of her life
Through surveillance, Zhang Yi found that Xu Hao relied on his money ability to finally buy supplies from many neighbors
It's not too much, but it's enough for him and his girlfriend to survive for a few weeks
Zhang Yi sneered: "This is the last residual heat that money can play in the apocalypse." ”
It won't take long for people to find that money has turned into waste paper as the supplies run out, and the materials are the absolute king!
When the time comes, I don't know how many people will regret their actions of selling supplies
I have to say that Xu Hao did make a bad start in the owner group
Moreover, because of the 25 units in the entire complex, many of the owners are friends and colleagues
Xu Hao's heavy purchase of materials affected everyone around him
When he set a high price for the supplies with real money, everyone realized how scarce the supplies were now!
Everyone clenched the supplies in their hands even more nervously
At the beginning of the snowstorm, some people will share and exchange some supplies with their neighbors
But now, they have become even more stingy than Grandet
Even if they meet their best friends to borrow food, they will use various excuses to refuse
The Ice Apocalypse is coming, the tenth day
At this time, Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining's home
The supplies are almost exhausted
Two people who used to have tricky tastes and like to eat high-end food can quarrel over a pack of instant noodles at this time
There is not much food left in the house that was bought before, as well as the food sent by Zhou Peng, the licking dog
According to the current situation, they will starve to death if they hold on for another week at most!
The two of them sat on the sofa wrapped in quilts, their faces pale, and an unsealed packet of compressed biscuits was placed on the coffee table in front of them
Lin Caining glanced at the compressed biscuits, and then said to the other party, Yuqing: "Yuqing, this is our last pack of compressed biscuits." ”
Fang Yuqing's eyes were full of pain
In the past, such coarse food, even if she was killed, would not allow them to enter her delicate throat
But now, every time she can eat cleanly, she is reluctant to throw away the scum that fell to the ground, she must pick it up and eat it.
