Chapter 3 Strengthening Reserves
Chu Chen woke up first in the morning, and it was enough for Chu Chen to sleep for more than 8 hours normally, so when he fell asleep before 9 o'clock the day before, Chu Chen woke up before 6 o'clock.
Soon after waking up, Chu Chen felt that the air in the house was not good, but because he was reluctant to warm the quilt, Chu Chen still lay on the ground and played with his mobile phone.
I checked the situation in various parts of Xiahua on the Internet, and found that the Internet was full of messages about abnormal temperatures, but the network has been very stuck, and it often takes several minutes to browse a web page, and Chu Chen is extremely irritable when waiting.
At 7 o'clock, Chu Chen had some difficulty breathing, so he got dressed, walked to the door lightly, and pushed lightly, the door did not move at all, Chu Chen continued to increase his strength, but he still couldn't push the door open! There was not even a trace of light in the crack of the door, only the cold breath on the doorknob, and even the only small window in the room could only be seen inexplicably white!
Chu Chen had no choice but to turn around, preparing to wake up his parents and discuss countermeasures.
Walking to the bed, Chu Chen used the light of his mobile phone to shine on his father, and found that his father Chu Yi's face was hideous, his hands were waving unconsciously, and he was short of breath, Chu Chen hurriedly shook his father in a panic.
Chu Yi opened his eyes and immediately covered his throat with his hands, unable to speak.
Chu Chen anxiously shone the light of his mobile phone on his mother, and found that his mother was in the same situation, so he hurriedly shook his mother awake.
At this time, my father worked hard for a long time, and finally said two sentences: "Lack of oxygen." ”
Chu Chen suddenly realized that there must be something outside blocking all the gaps in the room, causing the oxygen in the room to be thin, and he may have changed part of his physique after awakening, and he did not receive too serious an impact.
Time was urgent, Chu Chen didn't care if he would break the door, sprinted to the door, and slammed the door with the help of momentum, and after a few clicks, the door was knocked open with a "bang", and a large amount of cold air mixed with some snowflakes blew in.
Chu Chen exerted too much force, didn't stop himself, threw himself forward, and fell on the thick layer of snow at the door!
Getting up in a daze, Chu Chen looked around, the fence that was originally 1.5 meters high on the edge of the roof could only see the remaining 0.5 meters, and the place that could be seen by the naked eye was only endless white, and the sky was full of finger-sized snowflakes, and after just standing for more than a minute, Chu Chen's cotton jacket had been covered with snowflakes and turned white.
The cold wind blew Chu Chen sneezed several times in a row, and looked up at his father who slowly walked out of the house, both of them with horror in their eyes!
Back in the house, Chu Chen noticed that his health had dropped to 22, if it wasn't for Chu Chen's decision to get up, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The three of them discussed in the house for half an hour, and knocked the frozen door open several times in the middle, and finally decided, before everyone had a clear understanding of the end of the world, the mother slowly cleared the snow around the house, Chu Chen and his father, take the family bank card to take out the money, even if it costs several times more, they must invite the decoration master to come here, build a solid roof, and completely prevent snowflakes from falling around the house, if the situation is more optimistic, it is best to buy some materials and move to the top floor.
After the family ate something casually to cushion their stomachs, Chu Chen and his father walked from the seventh floor to the first floor, except for the garage on the first floor, there were a total of 12 households, Chu Yi, who had a strong sense of justice, passed by and every household had to go up and knock on the door, one of the families had not moved in yet, the three families did not respond, and the other 8 households were all woken up by Chu Yi and told them that it was snowing heavily outside, and Chu Chen's father and son left, leaving shocked faces.
Of course, Chu Chen is not much better, because the family on the left side of the fifth floor, after waiting for a long time, came out to open the door, it was a cold woman wearing a purple down jacket, a black dress inside, a collar that opened to the chest, revealing a bulging white sweater, and a pair of silver-white high heels on her feet. brought a super visual impact, so much so that after going down to the bottom of the building, Chu Chen didn't remember what happened at all.
When I got downstairs, because the snow on the road was very deep, I didn't have to think about riding a motorcycle, and the road conditions were unknown, and it was very difficult to walk, and the two of them walked for more than an hour when they were originally more than ten minutes away from the bank.
Moreover, it was more than 8 o'clock, and there were still almost no people on the road, and when the two arrived at the bank, it was already half past eight.
When I arrived at the destination, the bank, which usually opens at 8 o'clock, is half past 8 today, and there is no one yet.
The father and son discussed it and decided that Chu Yi would first go to the ATM to withdraw some of the money, and after taking out the money, he would pay a deposit to find someone to decorate, Chu Chen would stay, and after the bank opened, he would take out all the money in the card, and then go to buy a large number of supplies.
After Chu Yi left, Chu Chen anxiously waited until close to 10 o'clock, and the lobby manager of the bank finally came late, and then, in the midst of continuous apologies, helped Chu Chen take out 20,000 yuan of money.
The limit of the ordinary card at home is exactly 20,000, however, the money for decoration can be transferred to others online, and if you buy something, 20,000 yuan is enough for the time being, and you can't put it on the roof if you have more things.
After withdrawing the money, Chu Chen immediately found a wholesale store near the Xincheng community, and bought 20 bags of 100 catties of high-quality rice, 20 boxes of instant noodles in 24 packs of a box, 50 buckets of water in an 8-liter bucket, and 12 boxes of various canned food in 24 boxes at twice the price, spending a total of more than 15,000.
Looking at such a big business, it is still twice the price, the proprietress grinded off the odds, and also agreed, Chu Chen asked for a special request to deliver goods to the 8th floor, and in the case of insufficient manpower in the store, he still specially assigned 2 small workers in the store to deliver goods to the door on foot, after all, the snow is so big, the car can't go.
After Chu Chen took a trip to the two small workers, he told his mother to be responsible for placing the materials sent, and he communicated with the decoration company that came to prepare to install the ceiling.
Spend 120,000 yuan, required to be completed before tomorrow, the edge of the shed extends 1 meter from the roof, the bottom of the shed is half a meter higher than the roof fence, forming a square spire shed, the stronger the material, the better, the surface of the shed must be smooth, such a design can ensure that snowflakes will not accumulate on it, and their vision will not be affected, even if it is a strong wind, it is not easy to blow into the shed.
In the end, Chu Chen also proposed to let them help expand the wooden house where the materials were stored!
Although the staff of the decoration company are curious, such a simple shed, usually 10,000 can be done, why the family is willing to pay a high price of 120,000, however, no one will be unable to get along with the money, after receiving a deposit of 8,000, immediately signed a contract, and arranged personnel to help shovel the snow downstairs.
In addition, they also helped Chu Chen's family to build two high walls on the roof of the building, which originally had communication on both sides, to form an independent small space.
After a busy morning, at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Chen's family began to eat, while the employees of the decoration company outside chose to eat fast food in a hurry.
In the house, Chu Chen and his father discussed safety issues while eating, you must know that the husband is not guilty of his crimes, and now it is just the beginning of the end of the world, and people have already begun to go abnormal.
For the time being, these materials are nothing to everyone, but Chu Chen knows very well in his heart that the end times are not so simple, when the disaster develops further, the materials are rapidly consumed, and at the same time they cannot be replenished, these materials stored by his family will become a huge temptation, if they do not have the strength to protect it, they will definitely pay a heavy price, and even endanger their lives!
Therefore, Chu Chen discussed with his father, in the afternoon, his mother went to the house to pay attention to the construction process of the shed, Chu Chen wanted to go to the public security bureau with his father, before going, Chu Chen would take out all the things in the different space and put them in the house, and then, his father would take Chu Chen to the arsenal, and he would take as much as he could.
Hurry up and finish eating, since it has been decided, Chu Chen is afraid that it will change later, and it is more than 1 o'clock, which is the time when there are the least people in the public security bureau, so he urged his father to take himself to set off immediately and rush to the public security bureau!
On the way, Chu Chen's father and son found that there were obviously a lot more pedestrians on the road, most of them were carrying things home in large bags and small bags, and Chu Chen always felt that he had missed something critical when he saw other people's big bags and small bags.
When he arrived at the door of the Public Security Bureau, Chu Yi casually perfunctory a few words to the doorman, asked Chu Chen to wait on the first floor, and went up to the monitoring room on the sixth floor first, turned off the monitoring temporarily, and then went downstairs, took Chu Chen down to the basement on the second floor, opened the door with a special key, and saw a heavy electronic lock door, and after entering the twelve-digit password, a strong smell of gun oil, mixed with a little choking gunpowder, went straight to his nose.
Chu Yi was a little excited, turned around, and said to Chu Chen with some trembling: "You hurry up, three minutes, no matter how much you take, we have to leave immediately!" ”
Chu Chen said "um" casually, and immediately went in and picked it up.
In more than two minutes, the space of 1 cubic meter was full, including two 5.8mm caliber automatic rifles in a wooden box, twelve pistols of 5.8mm caliber in two wooden boxes, two wooden boxes for a box of 1500 rounds of 5.8mm bullets, and a wooden box for a box of 80 grenades.
After picking, Chu Chen went out, waited for his father to lock the two doors again, and stayed on the first floor to wait.
Chu Yi returned to the monitoring room, and after turning the monitoring back on, he took Chu Chen and hurriedly returned to the Xincheng community.
Back to the 8th floor of the community, the time has just passed 3 o'clock, the father and son's mood can not settle down, after all, to steal guns in the public security bureau, if the outside situation suddenly improves, it will inevitably involve the father and son, this kind of crime, once determined, basically sit in prison, there is no chance to turn over.
However, after all, Chu Chen had awakened his ability, and his mentality was much more fearless than that of his father, so he quickly calmed down and began to walk around the fence on the roof.
The shed has been erected with beams and columns, and on top of it, several layers of thick iron sheets have been draped.
However, it was much more difficult to clear the snow while fixing it.
The original wooden house built next to the house has been demolished and a much larger wooden house has been rebuilt, which is stacked with rice, canned food, bottled water and other materials purchased by Chu Chen.
A gust of cold wind hit from the gap between the fence and the iron shed, Chu Chen tightened his padded jacket, but he still couldn't resist the biting cold, and was ready to go back to the house to find a coat to put on.
Suddenly, Chu Chen finally remembered what he had missed!
That's right, it's warm materials, there are only two quilts in the house, last night, Chu Chen already felt the cold, if there is still such a quilt tonight, tomorrow, a family of three will definitely catch a cold!
And overcoats! There were no coats in the house at all, and due to the urgency, these things that occupied the position were still in the house in the northwest of Long County.
Moreover, since Xijiang County is located in the south of China, the winter is only about 0 degrees, and the quilts and coats usually prepared at home are not enough to withstand the increasingly cold climate.
Entering the house, Chu Chen turned out the remaining 5,000 yuan to buy grain, said hello to his parents, and Chu Chen went out, walked out of the community, and began to look for a store selling cotton products.
After finding a nearby one to enter, Chu Chen found that almost everything in the store had risen more than usual, about twice the price.
Chu Chen had no other way, so he spent all the remaining five thousand and bought six thick quilts, five sets of thick imitation army coats, and five thick cotton pants!
In addition, after giving the last two hundred yuan to the proprietress, Chu Chen said a few good words, and took five pairs of cotton shoes, five pairs of cotton gloves and five cotton hats half-sold and half-sent.
After running six times, before five o'clock, Chu Chen moved all his things home.
After arriving home on the last trip, Chu Chen drank three glasses of water in one go, and then collapsed on the bed and stopped moving.
