Chapter 32 Cash-for-Work
"Ahh
Xiao Chen kept sneezing in the car.
The wipers on the windshield were working hard, Lin Mu looked ahead intently, and asked Xiao Chen, "It doesn't matter, right?" It's too cold, or you won't come out tomorrow! ”
"It's okay, brother, manly, what's this matter, I'm not small, what's more, if I'm also at home, you'll be the only one left." And what Zheng Sichen didn't say is that if the world doesn't get better in the future, he must make himself stronger, so that he can protect the people he wants to protect, and the world and bad people won't wait for him to grow up slowly.
"Okay, in the future, we two men will support our families!"
"Bang Bang Bang" arrived at the first stop, opened the business window, and Lin Mu's previous ambition was immediately blown away by the heavy snow, leaving only the sound of teeth chattering.
The stop was not as full of people as before, maybe because of the snow, maybe because the time had changed, in short, there was no one, and Lin Mu had to turn on the special little horn again.
After a while, the nearby villagers came out of the snow and approached the mobile vending truck with difficulty.
The people who came around were all dressed thickly, but their faces were still blue from the cold.
"Xiaomu, are you still coming out on such a cold day?"
"What do you say, if Xiaomu doesn't come out, what will you eat!"
"It's not easy to eat and store food, it's not easy for a baby!"
"Your family has food in stock, but my family has no food in stock, and you are responsible for my family starving to death!"
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Lin Mu hurried to play a round.
"Uncle, it's okay, I'm driving a car, it's not cold, it's cold, it's not easy to have you, my heart is warm!"
Lin Mu was busy getting things for people while chatting with people.
"This ghost weather, if you say it's hot, it's hot, if you say it's cold, it's cold, when will this day pass!"
Lin Mu squeezed out a smile with his frozen face and said, "There will always be a day that will pass." ”
But I was silently thinking in my heart, this system has come out, according to the novel routine, it is estimated that it will not be able to pass for a while.
"Hey, my daughter is like you, she went to school in another place, and she hasn't come back yet, and I don't know what happened to her outside."
Most of the people in the village are elderly, young people have either gone to school or gone to work, and more than one is worried about their family members who have not returned home.
Lin Mu didn't know how to comfort them, maybe they didn't say it to seek comfort, they just wanted to pour out the thoughts they were holding in their hearts.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the mobile vending carts of the forest come to one stop after another, and people are heard at each stop.
They envy Lin's father and Lin's mother, envy Lin Mu who can return to them intact, and envy Lin Mu's family for eating and drinking.
When I was on the road, I happened to meet Zhang Cheng who came to patrol.
"You're patrolling during the day instead?"
"Well, now I can come out during the day, and it's snowing heavily, so it's hard to walk at night."
"Yes." Lin Mu didn't say much to greet, after all, chatting outside on this snowy day requires a certain amount of cold resistance talent skills, and Lin Mu, sorry, doesn't have this skill.
When he returned home, Lin Mu learned that they were not only patrolling in Zhangcheng just now, but also using loudspeakers to inform various villages, and the government organized people to clear the roads and snow, and the participants could get food or coal subsidies.
"Our family can not care about this food subsidy, but this coal subsidy is too important, with coal, our family can burn the stove for heating."
After Lin Mu heard this, he thought of exchanging food for coal, after all, as long as the system was still on him, his family would never be short of food, not only his family, but also many families in nearby villages were not short of food.
Bartering is gradually becoming the main theme of this era, especially after the country is working for relief.
Not only in N Province, this snow, although it made the weather extremely cold, but also allowed people to travel during the day, although it was cold.
Moreover, it is much safer to go out during the day than at night.
At this time, the state is providing cash for work, which has given many people hope to survive this winter.
Snow clearing, coal digging, there's something for you.
The day after receiving the notice, when Lin Mu drove out to sell things in a mobile vending vehicle, he noticed that groups of people were clearing snow on both sides of the road.
Dad Lin, Dad Lin and Xiaoying are also among them, just for coal subsidies.
There are no coal mines near Lin Mu's home, and Lin Mu estimates that the state uses food to recruit people to dig coal where there are coal mines, and then transports the coal to places where there is no plumbing and coal needs to be burned for heating (such as their case).
The capital of N province.
"Daddy's back!"
"Oops, Niuniu, stay away from Dad, Dad is dirty."
Liu Chunhe had just returned from work in the coal mine, his whole body was swarthy, and he smiled, revealing two rows of big white teeth.
"Nothing happened to me when I went to work today, right?" Liu Chunhe's wife, Zheng Lili, helped him unload the coal on his back.
"What can happen, many people in our building have gone to the mine to work, a group of people will act together, nothing will happen."
"That's good, that's good." Today is the first day for her husband to work in the mine, and when she heard that someone was going with her husband, Zheng Lili's heart finally let go.
"How did you get the coal, how nice it is to exchange it for grain!"
Although their sweet potatoes were quickly harvested after her husband's mention when it just snowed, they were not frozen, but to survive this winter, it was still tight, Zheng Lili thought that her husband would go to work to receive food, and life would be more relaxed.
"It's cold, Niu Niu is small, in case I catch a cold, although I am a doctor, there is no medicine!" Liu Chunhe has his own ideas.
Finding a pot at home and placing a wooden board underneath it to prevent burning the floor, Liu Chunhe burned coals in the bedroom where the three of them slept.
In order to prevent gas poisoning, the closed windows of the bedroom were opened.
A family of three gathered around the boiler and made a fire, and the flickering light of the fire shone on the faces of the three people, which was a warm feeling.
"I heard something about going to work today." Liu Chunhe sat by the fire and said to his wife.
"What's the matter?"
"The coal we dig is not used up in our vicinity, and the government will transport it to places where there is a shortage of coal, and there is a special coal transportation fleet, I think, we should go back to our hometown at this time!" Liu Chunhe brought up his previous suggestion again.
Zheng Lili didn't answer immediately, but thought carefully in her mind, following the government's convoy, and it was still daytime, the safety was definitely enough.
However, can the government's coal convoy take them with it?
Zheng Lili threw the question she thought of to her husband again.
"I've inquired about this, and the coal convoy is definitely not good, but the government has added passenger vehicles behind the coal convoy to go with the coal convoy, which is ...... You have to pay food for your journey. ”
"Okay, as long as the safety is guaranteed, let's go, tomorrow, I'll go to the other side to say hello to our parents and let them get ready."
