Chapter 3: 58°C, Polarizing Weather

"That, big brother......"

After being embarrassed for a while, the salesman thought that it was all exposed anyway, so it was better to ask clearly: "Is there really going to be a power rationing?" Is it serious? What the hell is the situation......

"How do you know? Is there any inside information? ”

"It's not really the inside scoop."

Zhou Ping said casually: "It's been out in two weeks, it's not a big deal." With the current situation, power rationing is inevitable. ”

"If there is no power rationing, there will be intermittent power outages, and there is no doubt that the grid cannot afford such a large amount of electricity consumption."

"Yes, of course I can't afford it, it's too hot to turn on the air conditioner 24 hours a day."

The young man frowned, "Then big brother, what kind of restriction is there?" It's so sad that the weather is hell. ”

Zhou Ping integrated the words in the dream through his own logic, and said: "An app will be launched soon, and each household will upload it with its own household registration and residence to apply for electricity consumption indicators." ”

"The indicator is calculated on a weekly basis, and the weekly electricity consumption index is received according to the number of people living in the residence. If it is exceeded, the power will be cut off directly, and if it is insufficient, it can be accumulated to the next week. ”

"How many indicators?"

"I can't say that."

“!”

Although it is not detailed, but if you think about it, such an approach can implement the power rationing system to a greater extent, and the salesman believes it almost immediately.

One indicator per week...... This indicator must be well below the current standard for them to not limit the amount of electricity they use.

At the thought of this, the young man couldn't help but shudder.

"If that's the case, the person who rents the house will face a lot of trouble." He asked, almost without thinking.

Landlords and agents have so much room to maneuver that if they have to do something, then they can control the tenants?

Zhou Ping said: "They can think of anything you can think of, it's not as serious as you think, but for a house without property rights, it's really very troublesome." ”

I see.

The young man breathed a sigh of relief, the house he lived in was rented by an intermediary, so it shouldn't be a big problem?

"Then, big brother, if the power is really limited, you must bring one of this solar battery, I am sincere this time, and I will not sell it."

"If you want, I'll give you a price."

The young man whispered in Zhou Ping's ear: "10,000 yuan, I didn't earn you a penny, the price of the factory landing is this, and even the labor is not counted." ”

Zhou Ping smiled slightly, this price is cut at all, it is completely effortless~

"Okay, let's have two."

"Howler!"

After registering and paying the deposit, Zhou Ping checked out and went to the rest area outside.

It is crowded here, and the aunts and uncles are laying small benches on the ground, playing cards and chatting, playing chess and amusing each other, and the noise is endless, which is too noisy.

Zhou Ping's cart shopping cart rested in a corner, and he didn't see Duan Ang's figure, so he took out his mobile phone to check the current news.

On the news, there is no news about the power rationing.

Or rather, there is very little negative news.

In view of this, Zhou Ping almost didn't look at the text, he flipped through the major video discussion forums and posts, etc., and the tradition of watching the news from the comment area was even more ancient, and soon, Zhou Ping found it.

"Fart, we now have eighteen super-large solar power plants, and there is still a possibility of power outages in remote mountainous areas, how can there be power outages in cities."

"Hehe, I'm talking about power rationing, not power outages, don't confuse the public. Also, elementary school students please refrain from spraying. ”

"Bad pen, I think you are a walking 50w, and you are alarmist here every day, and you know what the ingredients are."

"Don't worry about the illiterate, when the software comes out, you kneel down and thank you."

Software?

This word struck Zhou Ping's sensitive nerves at once.

He clicked on the comment.

"The comment has been deleted."

Unexpectedly, I got a hint that the comment had been deleted, and the dozen or so follow-up comments below were even more invisible.

clicked on this person's avatar, but it hid the dynamics and couldn't see anything.

Zhou Ping's brows furrowed.

Hypothesis, a hypothesis.

Dreams, what if they are real?

As soon as this thought came out, a terrifying chill instantly rose from the soles of his feet to his heart, and then the whole person was paralyzed and stunned.

What happens when it is expressed to 80 degrees Celsius?

Drying electric poles and blowing up asphalt roads are just routine operations at 50 degrees Celsius, and after reaching 80 degrees Celsius, the most terrifying and significant features should be:

All water sources on the surface, including rivers, lakes and oceans, will evaporate at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Although Zhou Ping is not a geographer, he also knows that the water vapor that accumulates in the northwest does not mean that it will rain in the northwest, and it is likely to be concentrated in a certain place with the movement of the climate.

To put it simply, one place is under the scorching sun of purgatory, while another place will face strong storms, heavy rainfall, endless storms and rains will form terrifying floods, cities will be flooded, electricity will be cut off, and all livelihoods will be forced to stop.

Whether it is a scorching sun or a torrential rain, it is an unprecedented test for the creatures on the surface, and if this is a sign of the end times, then it is not for humans, but for all life on the surface.

This is still speculation only from the weather aspect, and the biggest test for life on the surface is the rise in sea levels caused by the melting glaciers of the Arctic and Antarctica.

Rapidly rising sea levels will frantically erode islands, coasts, beaches, and low-lying coastal cities, causing coastal land areas to shrink rapidly and even be submerged.

Not only that, but it can also bring extreme typhoons, hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis, storm surges, and a series of earth-shattering disasters.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ping, who was in a sultry and noisy environment, actually felt a chill on his skin, even though the hot sweat flowed down in turns and wet all his clothes, but the chill on his body could not be swept away, and he seemed to have fallen into a strange hot ice cave.

If the dream is real, what can he do to save himself?

"Brother."

"I'm sorry, I just went to order a heat insulation pad and was delayed for a while."

Duan Ang pushed the shopping cart through the crowd, sweating hot and carrying two cans of ice Coke to this side.

"Take a sip to relieve fever, I finally grabbed it. I really didn't expect that I would have to grab ice drinks now, thinking that when I was a child, I didn't eat anything casually. ”

"Alas, the world has changed so much that it is simply unexpected."

"yes."

Zhou Ping sighed, took the ice coke, opened it and poured it violently.

The cold drink relieved the chill on his body and brought his thoughts back, and then he looked at Duan Ang, who was soaking wet, and looked at the cool old men and old ladies all over the ground, Zhou Ping suddenly recognized a reality.

Even if the dream wasn't real, with the 58 degrees Celsius heat, was the polarizing weather he feared far away?

Maybe it's just a matter of time.
