Chapter 14: What do you think?
For that person's words, the rest of the people didn't know how to refute, so they all fell silent, Chen Ruhai was unconvinced, only felt that Xia Lu was a blind cat who had bumped into a dead mouse, and happened to hoard so many things, but he couldn't say it at this time.
Time slipped away little by little, and the days became more and more difficult day by day, during this time, Xia Lu watched the order become more and more chaotic, but there was no way, there were more and more murders everywhere, there were robberies and robberies of women.
There are people crying and screaming every night, even here in the villa area, Xia Lu has not heard it, but the bodyguards who patrol every day often hear it.
Niu Shuo chatted with Xia Lu that day, and said casually: "The villa in front is no longer there. β
"Huh? Why? β
Xia Lu raised his eyebrows, but his eyes couldn't leave the books in his hands, in the last days, books are also very precious things, this thing can't keep them fed and clothed, but it can make them feel better mentally, so Xia Lu also hoarded some.
He glanced at the book, looked up again, and said, "I remember that the family is also well-off, bodyguards or something, and they also hire a lot, how can there be no one?" β
"It's a bodyguard disaster."
Niu Shuo sighed, seeing that Xia Lu was still a little incomprehensible, explained: "I also heard from the person who went out to clean up the snow about this, saying that the owner of that family had hoarded a lot of things for the winter with you, but after the heavy snow closed the road, he was unwilling to share a little with his bodyguards. β
Xia Lu felt a pang in his heart, the arrival of the end of the world did make humanity collapse, but in this matter, the owner of the villa was not without any mistakes, but Xia Lu was not himself, so naturally he had no right to say anything, so he was only silent.
Xia Lu was silent for a moment, and then suddenly asked, "You said that the owner of the villa was stockpiling goods with me?" β
"Yes, although most people were laughing at the beginning, there are still a small number of people who are hoarding goods with you, not to mention far away, just saying that in this villa area, there are two or three people who are hoarding goods with you, and now they have begun to sell at a high price."
"For sale?"
Xia Lu shook his head, a little smiling, sure enough, it's his own, no one can take it away, it's not his own, he can't keep it, not to mention that they don't know the future direction, just say that in such a weather now, everything is still on par with "money", and there will definitely be times when they regret it in the future.
"Niu Shuo, you go and inquire again, not everyone will take it out and sell it."
"Good!"
Although Niu Shuo didn't know why Xia Lu wanted to inquire about this, he still dutifully inquired about the matter, and told Xia Lu as quickly as possible: "Now there are three strongholds in the capital, and the owners of the strongholds are all people who stocked up with you at the beginning, and other cities are not clear for the time being, and they are still investigating." β
"I don't need to investigate other cities, I just need to know this."
Xia Lu shook his head and smiled secretly in his heart, sure enough, when the end comes, the first thing to start is all kinds of strongholds, and after a while, after the country can't control the situation, there will only be more and more strongholds, and there will be more and more struggles, and even, human beings will disappear and be replaced by zombie sieges.
Those things are still relatively far away from Xia Lu, and he is a person who has lived a lifetime again, and he is also comfortable with the situation behind, and now, what he really has to deal with is the people from the Meteorological Bureau and the Security Bureau who came over with difficulty.
"Why is Director Chen here?"
Xia Lu smiled and poured a cup of hot water for each of them, this hot water is now also a precious thing, and it is very interesting to be able to use hot water to entertain these guests who are not very friendly.
Director Chen's face was a little ugly, he held the hot water, his lips moved for a long time, and then he held back a sentence: "Cough, Mr. Xia, I want to ask how you knew that this snow would fall for half a year?" β
Of course, I didn't know until I was born again.
Xia Lu only dared to say this sentence in his heart, and did not dare to say it directly, he only smiled: "I just know a little bit about the weather, and I still speculate more, I didn't expect to be able to meet a dead mouse with a blind cat." β
Director Chen was speechless when he heard these obvious fake words, but he couldn't force Xia Lu to say it, so he had to change the topic: "Then, can Mr. Xia guess what this weather will look like in the future?" β
Xia Lu shook his head, thought about it, and said: "I only know a little bit, I only know that this snow will not last for a lifetime, and it should stop in about half a year." β
"Really? That's great! β
"What's so good?"
Xia Lu showed no mercy and said: "Although the snow has stopped, the sun will come out, and it will be a hot day again." β
"Isn't that great? The snow has stopped, and the sun is still there! β
"You're naΓ―ve."
Xia Lu shook his head again: "Let me ask you, will the snow be heated by the sun?" β
"Mr. Xia's questionβhehe, isn't this common sense?"
Director Chen laughed awkwardly and whispered, his eyes were already full of contempt, obviously, he still looked down on Xia Lu from the bottom of his bones.
Xia Lu was not annoyed by his attitude, but said slowly: "Now that it is cold, the next is the scorching heat, the scorching heat is not only melting all the snow, but also the South Pole and the North Pole, what will happen then, hehe, you can think about it yourself." β
When he said this, he stood up again, pointed to the snow that covered the houses outside, and said, "You see, if all the snow melts, I'm afraid the whole city will turn into water, right?" β
"ThisβMr. Xia is exaggerating, isn't it?" Director Chen said it very tactfully, and he even felt that Xia Lu's ideas were a little lacking in common sense.
"Do you think I'm exaggerating?"
Xia Lu raised his eyebrows and sat back again, his tone was not salty or light, but with seriousness: "You yourself have seen how much snow there is outside, in fact, when the South Pole and the North Pole are melted, it will bring about a rise in sea level, and at that time, I am afraid that even the low-lying land will be submerged." β
"Mr. Xia, it's really interesting to talk, haha-then, let's go first."
Director Chen said a perfunctory word, hurriedly pulled the person, didn't look back, and left here in a hurry, as soon as he got out of the villa gate, Director Chen complained: "This is too much, too exaggerated, what is this Xia Lu talking about?" I think he's deliberately fooling us! β
"Fooling you? What are you fooling you for? β
The other person glanced at him and said, "That's it, no matter what, he made an early warning before, and even reminded us that although we despise others and cause such a big loss now, we can't talk like that, let's go back first and go." β
