Chapter 275: Hongmen Banquet (1)
Chapter 275 Hongmen Banquet (1)
"Song Rui, here!" Jiang Wan saw Song Rui following his parents from a distance, with a bitter face.
Song Rui heard someone calling him, looked around and saw that it was Jiang Wan, and secretly turned a corner and sneaked over to Jiang Wan, "You guys came so early?"
Jiang Wan motioned for him to sit on the empty chair next to her and said with a smile, "As soon as you came in, I saw you had a bitter face. What's wrong? Did your dad beat you again?"
Song Rui said stubbornly, "That's not true. For a smart kid like me, how can my dad beat me every day?"
"Then why are you unhappy?"
Song Rui looked at Jiang Wan and his family looking at him with smiles. He leaned his head forward and whispered, "How can you still laugh? Do you know what the occasion is tonight?"
Jiang Wan smiled and said nothing. When Jiang Nai next to her saw Song Rui being so mysterious, her curiosity was aroused and she also asked in a low voice, "What is the occasion? Aren't you here to see the party?"
"What kind of party are you watching? It's obviously a pig slaughter tonight." Song Rui looked at Jiang Nai's confused look and was very anxious, "Just now, I went to the property next door to my house several times, and they all said
If you don’t want to come, guess what happens next?”
"What, what's going on?" Jiang Nai stared at Song Rui nervously.
The boy looked around and whispered, "Later, a few people with guns went to invite them. You said that family was also stubborn. They must have thought that they didn't dare to kill people with guns, so they didn't come. Who knows who those people were?
After warning them to no avail, they just kicked in the door and forced them to come with a gun pointed at their heads. I live next door and saw that this was not an easy matter, so I didn't dare to delay any more and ran over."
"Hey, why are you still holding a gun? Isn't it said that this community is the safest? Why would anyone dare to use a gun to force people here?" Jiang Nai obviously hadn't realized what was going on.
Song Rui said angrily, "Why haven't you understood yet? The one holding the gun is the one who usually protects us. We are not really invited to the party tonight."
"Is this so scary?" Jiang Nai looked at Jiang Wan nervously.
Jiang Wan signaled her to calm down and said, "Grandma, don't listen to what he said is scary. Nothing serious will happen. He just wants us to donate some supplies or something."
"That's not a point!" Song Rui sighed, leaned back on the chair, and planned not to leave.
Yan Wen also arrived at this time. He followed Chairman Yan. There was an assistant beside them each, and there was no one else.
When he walked to Jiang Wan, he greeted them one by one. After sitting down, Yan Wen seemed to have nothing to talk about and deliberately found a topic to talk about. He smiled at Jiang Wan and said, "Have you found your friend?"
"Friend?" Jiang Wan reacted for a moment before remembering that when she went to put up posters at the gate of the community, he happened to meet her, so she excused herself and said she was looking for a friend.
"In the past two days, I noticed that your poster is still posted on it, and I wanted to ask you. If you need it, you can tell me about his situation. I will ask someone to help you pay attention to it," Yan Wen said again.
.
"No, but I don't need to bother you. I'll just look for it myself." Jiang Wan politely declined.
When everyone arrived, the dinner began, and all the delicacies were served. Jiang Wan took a look and saw that the dishes were not bad, but some of the green vegetables smelled of pesticides. I am afraid they were irrigated by the planting department with various fertilizers and nutrient solutions.
It's really difficult to enter.
Many people eat the food they dislike with gusto. These days, if you dislike something that tastes good or bad, it’s good to eat some vegetables to replenish your vitamins.
There were also dumplings and meat dishes, which were made from frozen meat and didn't taste very good. Jiang Wan just smelled the smell and didn't even move his chopsticks. He thought that he would have to add extra food when he went back in the evening, so he couldn't eat these things.
She still overestimated this party. These dishes were far different from the desserts at Yan Wen's house that day.
The fertilizers and feeds she sold to the Planting Department and Breeding Department, and the animals and plants she raised went into someone's mouth. I didn't even see any of them on the table.
In fact, this banquet is not that bad. Except for the fact that the ingredients used are frozen meat which is not very fresh, the taste and style are good. However, it is difficult for their family to eat the nutritious dishes in the space.
After swallowing it, some other guests still ate it with gusto.
Along with the banquet, several red songs were sung on the stage, a few dances were performed, as well as a cross talk and magic show, and the banquet finally got down to business.
A slightly fat man walked onto the stage, took the microphone and said with a smile, "Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen, for coming to today's party!"
As soon as his words came out, there was a burst of noise below. Did they want to come to participate? They were obviously invited with a gun pointed at their heads.
The host above acted as if he didn't hear the complaints from the people below, and continued to smile and said, "Actually, in addition to celebrating the New Year, I invite everyone here today. I also want to announce an important news to everyone."
Here we go, the main event is here!
The noisy crowd fell silent instantly, holding their breath as they waited for him to continue.
The host paused for a moment, whetting people's appetite before speaking again, "To be honest, according to the weather bureau's tests, the temperature will slowly drop every day in the future. If this rate continues, the temperature will drop within three years."
To sixty degrees below zero, or even lower.
Many people may not have a specific concept of minus 60 degrees. It can be said that in an environment of minus 60 degrees, once the skin is exposed, it will be immediately frozen and the cells will die. Many people must be thinking about such a cold weather.
Whoever leaves their skin exposed will definitely wear thick clothes, but even so, the exposed eyes and nose will get frostbite.
And this is not regional, but global. Blue Star will slowly enter an ice age, which will pose a great test to human survival.
You can stay in the basement or in the house, but in that environment, animals and plants are extinct, food is extremely scarce, and there is no medical treatment to serve you. Can you really survive? How many days can you survive?
Year?"
Every question the host asks is in everyone's heart.
Each of them knew that if the world really entered an ice age, surviving would not be as simple as digging a basement and stocking up on food.
A series of safety guarantees must be ensured such as oxygen supply issues, heating issues, medical issues if people get sick, food storage issues, etc. in the basement.
If it only lasts for three or two years, it may be possible to survive, but how can the ice age disappear in three or two years? If it takes ten or several decades, how can we ensure that we can survive?
Except for Jiang Wan here who knew the general direction of the future, no one was optimistic and they were all quietly waiting for the host to continue.
Chapter completed!
