Chapter 9: Procurement
Liang Ying naturally couldn't object.
The two of them entered a nearby store, which was not very big, but barely complete.
Considering that the mineral water is too heavy, it is better to buy it at Wei Youqi's house.
But Wei Youqi's house is mainly a convenience store, most of the goods are daily necessities, and food only accounts for a small part.
So food can be bought outside.
And he is also worried about one thing, last year's solar storm in Europe was out of power for a month and a half, and Wei Youqi's own family definitely needed food for such a long time.
It's better to buy outside.
He and Liang Ying quickly filled the four major shopping baskets.
If it weren't for the fear that he wouldn't be able to leave, he would have wanted to buy more.
The cash register in the store doesn't open, so you have to use a calculator to pay the bill.
However, the goods in the store are not priced, the prices are all on the shelves, and the cashier cannot remember the price.
Liang Shuyu had to go to the shelves one by one to find the price.
They buy a lot of things, and they delay other people's time when they come and go, which causes some dissatisfaction.
"Why are you buying so many things, it's not the end of the world."
There was a thin and tall man who only bought a bottle of Coke and a pack of cigarettes, and he had been waiting behind Liang Shuyu and them for a long time, and he couldn't help but complain at this time.
"It's just, I'm so nervous, people who don't know think they're doing." A young woman.
"It's a solar storm, and the power will be out for a long time, so let's buy some." Said another man who also bought a lot of things.
"Damn, can't we pay for it first, how long will this be?" Said the tall and thin man.
"What about solar storms? Were those who starved to death last year because they couldn't buy anything? It's because I can't afford it. What kind of society is there now, why do some people listen to the wind and rain, and follow the trend to hoard things at every turn, resulting in people who really need them not being able to buy things, and society is corrupted by these people. ”
The more the man spoke, the more angry he became, at first at the air.
Then it was directly in the direction of Liang Shuyu.
"Last year's solar storm, if it weren't for those speculators who deliberately hoarded goods to raise prices, would so many poor people starve to death? There was also that big flu, why didn't many people think about it when they hoarded masks and made a fortune, they were also raised by their fathers and mothers, and they wouldn't go to hell after they died. ”
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and the more he spoke, the more ugly it became.
At first, there were a few people who echoed him, but his words were really unpleasant, and no one paid attention to him.
"Mad's idiot!" The man concluded.
Liang Shuyu felt that the word idiot was a little familiar.
Yes, he's an idiot.
What about idiots?
Is it more important than life?
The aurora in the sky is so dazzling that the night is like day.
21:23 min.
As soon as I entered Lane 27, I heard someone gloating and saying:
"It's a holiday!"
"This solar storm is too timely, can we not go to work for a month?"
"Hey, my game!"
There was a lot of discussion along the way, and we arrived at the Weiwei convenience store.
"Oh, what should I do, there are so many popsicles in the fridge." It was Aunt Xiuping's voice.
Liang Shuyu and the others put things into the corridor, because the wind and rain were too strong, and the roller shutter door of Wei Youqi's house had been lowered.
Leave only a small door that can accommodate one person.
Aunt Xiuping heard movement outside and hurriedly poked her head out, "Xiaoyu is back?" ”
Sure enough, when she saw Liang Shuyu and Liang Ying, Aunt Xiuping smiled.
"I'll just say yes, I'm sure it'll be fine, depending on how worried you look."
Liang Ying returned a borrowed raincoat to her, "I'm stuck in the elevator, I'm okay." ”
"Oops." Aunt Xiuping was startled, and Wei Fatzi and Wei Youqi also heard the sound one after another, and Wei Youqi even rushed out of a bear hug and hugged Liang Shuyu.
"Lao Liang, you're not stupid."
Liang Shuyu gave him a roll of his eyes.
This tone, is it waiting for him to be scared silly?
Wei Youqi hung on him and laughed.
Although Liang Shuyu was sleepy in the elevator for a while, he was really not frightened.
At that time, he decided to pick up the elevator door, and not long after the electrician arrived, the electrician had arrived early.
It's just that the fire escape door on the fourth floor was locked, and they went to the contact to open the door again.
It took a delay to come and go.
Every floor of Xia Feng Building is rented out, and although the door lock of the fire escape is kept in the property, the key is kept by a special person, and the people on the fourth floor are off work.
They had to get permission from the owner on the fourth floor to open the fire escape.
In short, there were some failures in the emergency contact of the elevator at that time, and the electrician outside was also in a hurry.
Luckily, it's fine.
"Auntie, help me get two boxes of mineral water." Liang Shuyu said.
Aunt Xiuping answered, and happily asked Wei Fatzi to carry two boxes of mineral water out.
Wei Fatzi helped them move their things upstairs by the way, and Aunt Xiuping also saw that they had bought so many things, so she muttered:
"Why do you buy so many things?"
Liang Shuyu thought about it, everyone knows about the solar storm, but Aunt Xiuping's family is a person who has no sense of crisis.
He still needs to remind them.
"There will be a power outage for at least a month or two during this solar storm, Auntie, do you have enough things at home, do you want to prepare more things?"
Aunt Xiuping waved her hand: "Our family runs a convenience store, you are worried too much." ”
"That's true, but if you can, maybe you can store something up and don't sell it, and keep it for later use."
"Xiaoyu, you don't understand, it's like this when we can make money, if I don't sell things behind closed doors, what will our family eat."
These words really made it difficult for Liang Shuyu to refute, and Liang Shuyu had no choice but to look at Wei Youqi.
Wei Youqi, as Liang Shuyu's childhood sweetheart and tablemate, of course knows what Liang Shuyu is worried about.
He tugged at his mother's arm very nicely:
"Solar storms seem to paralyze traffic, right? We will definitely not be able to buy the goods by then. Mom, I think what Lao Liang said still makes some sense. ”
"The market for incoming goods is not far away."
"......" Wei Youqi had nothing to say, and the place where their family bought the goods was in the wholesale market less than three kilometers behind this alley.
It doesn't seem too far, huh?
"It seems that too, we can go over and buy goods by bicycle." Wei Youqi thought for a while.
Liang Shuyu also knew that the wholesale market was so close, and it seemed that he might be too worried about Wei Youqi's family.
"Then I'll go up first." Liang Shuyu took his leave.
Wei Youqi pushed him, "Go quickly, go quickly." Then by the way, I wanted to slip away together, but Aunt Xiuping noticed it and yelled back with a word.
Wei Youqi showed a wry smile at Liang Shuyu and went back helplessly.
Wei Fatzi went downstairs after helping them move their things, and Liang Wenjing was heartless.
Seeing Liang Shuyu's wet appearance, he actually laughed.
"Drink the potion first, hurry up and take a hot bath, it's time to stop the water in a while." Liang Ying glared at Liang Wenjing and said softly to Liang Shuyu.
Liang Wenjing was not afraid of Liang Ying's glare, and she made a grimace at Liang Shuyu when Liang Ying turned her head.
Liang Shuyu was in no mood to joke, but he saw that Liang Wenjing was so "ignorant".
He had no choice but to be bad.
"The power has been out for two months, and your novel is going to be cold again, right? Quanqin is also in the soup, tsk, it's really miserable. ”
Liang Wenjing: "......"
"Liang Shuyu, if you don't say you'll die!"
She is a hard-working person who survives on the street, she is easy, she !! QAQ
After taking a shower, Liang Shuyu found two cans of gas at the door.
He didn't pay attention when he came back before, it should have been his mother who called him when he went out to buy medicine.
That's great, two cans of gas should be enough for their home for a month.
There is also a large tank of gas that is being used at home, and the gas saving is enough for them to last for two months.
Next, they at least don't have to worry about making a fire and cooking.
Those who live in high-rise buildings are miserable, they use the natural gas provided by the uniform, and I don't know if there will be a gas outage after the power outage.
In case even the gas is stopped, it will be a problem for those people to even cook.
Fortunately, in their semi-suburbs, natural gas is not yet available.
So much so that every household here uses canned gas.
I just didn't expect that something really happened, and Liu Xiaopang's worries became a fact......
It's a pity that there is no signal on his mobile phone now, otherwise he would really want to ask Liu Xiaopang about the list of supplies.
