The cold wave is still raging in the city, but for the poor and the rich, the effects of the cold wave and the power outage are two very different senses.

The high-end residential buildings near the Energy Tower are brightly lit.

In the howling cold wind, the lights of thousands of homes are like a candle flame that is fluctuating and may be extinguished at any time, but people with a little common sense know that there is not a candle flame that will be extinguished at any time

It was the safest place in Night City, after the Portal.

The gap between the rich and the poor, created by decades of continuous squeezing, is enough to make the two classes live in completely different worlds.

The intellectual aristocracy, who monopolized knowledge and possessed a lot of wealth, could not only design their own houses that could withstand the cold and live comfortably, but also had the financial resources to purchase a large number of cold-proof materials, increase the cold resistance of their houses to a +15, and even draw drawings and hire workers to customize heating equipment for them

It's actually quite reasonable to think about.

Nowadays, most of the intellectual aristocrats in Night City have an average age between forty and sixty years old, and Night City will have an energy crisis with a large-scale power outage in the city every ten or twenty years, so the contemporary intellectual aristocracy must have experienced one or more energy crises, and they will definitely prepare countermeasures in advance, and maybe even the family will have a set of emergency plan manuals that have been revised over several generations, specifically to teach their noble descendants how to survive the energy crisis in Night City.

As for why this is so

Nonsense, because the iron-headed babies who are not prepared to deal with it are basically frozen to death and frostbitten like the poor at the bottom, needless to say, those who do not believe in evil and freeze to amputate their limbs, no matter how stupid they are, should learn a lesson&ash;&ash;If nothing else, don't amputate your third leg when you face the next energy crisis for yourself.

Food, water, fuel, clothing, power generation equipment, tool parts

Every qualified intellectual aristocrat should set aside a warehouse in his own small building to store supplies. In the aristocratic circles of Night City, there is even a wonderful way to measure whether the nobles are good or not.

Stock up.

The more materials you hoard, the more complete the variety, and the more reliable and excellent you are in the aristocratic circle.

What? Why aren't you stocking up on shiny gold coins, you ask?

Because it's useless.

Precisely because they foresaw that there might be another energy crisis in the future, almost all the intellectual aristocrats in Night City became hamsters&ash;&ash; although they had a lot of wealth, they knew very well that without the credit guarantee of the chairman, it was just a piece of paper after all, and what was the value of a piece of waste paper? Even if this piece of waste paper can be exchanged for real money, what is the use? Can you eat it? Can I wear it? Can it be used to generate electricity?

No.

So it's better to exchange it for real goods.

And on the other hand, being able to get a generator, a heater, and even a floor heating system in your own house can already prove its connections and strength as a nobleman&ash;&ash; whether it is bought with money and connections, or designed and hired by yourself, it can show its heritage.

After all, many things that nobles need are not easy to buy in the market, and if you can get these things, you must have a way to get them.

And the Fran family is such a powerful and well-established aristocratic family.

The high-end style single-family cottage is bitterly cold outside.

The interior of the house, which is luxuriously decorated and inhumane in every detail, is as warm as summer.

The warm orange glow of the electric lights illuminates every dark corner of the house, and the warm and dry air released by the underfloor heating system can make you feel as if you are living in the middle of summer, and you can't help but want to take off your heavy clothes and change into a cool and elegant summer dress.

The neatly dressed maids held the plates and presented the day's meal one by one&ash;&ash; vegetable salad made from freshly picked fresh vegetables in the greenhouse, creamy soup that has been stewed and boiled for a long time with milky aroma, golden fried fish with even fish bones that have been fried to a crisp, delicate steak topped with black pepper sauce and mashed potatoes, crunchy and delicious white bread, and a glass of sweet and sour lemon juice with bubbles, which barely met the minimum requirements for the intellectual aristocracy to eat a meal.

As if she hadn't eaten for hundreds of years, the girl gobbled up the food in her mouth, holding a fork in one hand, and put the steak in her mouth, and with the other hand was not idle, she grabbed the crispy white bread and put it in the creamy soup in front of her, sucked it up and put it into her mouth.
