Chapter two hundred and forty seventh petty citizen
During dinner, Mother Xu had a strong "criticism" of her son spent a lot of money to buy water.
"It's so bad that the money is not enough." The water at home is not enough. "
Mother Xu is not opposed to buying water, but the price is too much. This water is not made by gold. It is simply outrageous that the mother opens the door and goes home.
"Mom, don't you still complain about the water for not enough water some time ago? There are so many people in our family, so a little water every day, let alone take a bath, and wash your face." Xu Dong advised.
"Then you shouldn't sign such a long contract for three years. Maybe a few days later, what about the water supply time has changed again?"
Xu Dong took a sip of watermelon juice: "Impossible. Once the plant factory is put into use, it is impossible to shut down casually. Even if residents use water, they must give them ways."
"I listen to your Aunt Wang, saying that there are a lot of seawater firing factories along the coast. How can this water be not enough?"
"Mom, this is not as simple as you think. Our country has a population of 1.8 billion, and the total amount of water consumption must be trillions of tons every year. How can you save tens of billions of tons now?
Do you know what the concept of tens of billions of tons is?
At present, the largest seawater firing factory in the world is 700 million tons of annual output, and it takes almost a hundred such factories to barely meet the daily needs. "
Xu Ma and others were scared.
Xu Dong continued to explain: "One third of our domestic freshwater resources are now transported from the North and South Pole, but the North and South Pole will not be supported for a few years. The hard days are still behind!"
Moreover, the North and South Pole itself also has a big problem, that is, the freezing period.
In the autumn and winter seasons, the route will be frozen. It can be truly navigable in the end of the year. In fact, it does not exceed half a year.
"Dongzi said reasonable, wife, don't be nagging anymore, isn't it tens of thousands of dollars a month, our family is not ca n’t afford to spend." Dad Xu helped to persuade.
Xu Dong said so, but inspired Xu Da a lot, so that he had a clearer judgment and understanding of the future situation.
Mother Xu sighed: "Okay, don't say it, no one listened anyway, no one listened."
"Grandma, I listen to you, Dabao is the most obedient." Dabao said with a small hand and said.
Xu's great joy, holding the big grandson with a fierce kiss.

The next day, perhaps because of the "revenge" psychology, maybe it was scared by last night. Xu Mom was abnormal and sent Xu Dong to the grain shop early in the morning.
The food of their family has not taken this month!
In October, the whole family's rations were added together, with a total of 172 pounds and less than 20 pounds per capita.
There are many children in their family, and they are special cases. This can also be understood.
However, in the specific side of Xu Dad and Xu, there are only 46 pounds of grains in the area. According to normal standards, they must not eat enough.
In addition, in rations, rice and corn flour are significantly less, but the proportion of potatoes and sweet potatoes has almost increased by 30 %.
After buying the food from the grain shop, as soon as I walked out of the door, there was a large group of people surrounded.
"Buddy, collect food at high prices, and discuss the price."
"Do you want to change fine grains? Three pounds of corn flour changes two pounds of rice ..."
Xu Dong quickly waved his hand: "I don't sell food or change food."
Today, it is neither at the beginning of the month nor the off -work hours. I did not expect that there were still so many two trafficking at the entrance of the grain store.
Squeeze out the crowd and finally return to the car.
"Bang Bang ..."
A aunt didn't know when to keep up, and patted the window hard, Xu Dongsheng waved his hand to signal that he was not interested, and he was going to drive.
The aunt persisted, and shouted something in his mouth. Xu Dong couldn't help but pressed the window. He didn't want to be touched porcelain.
"Big Brother ..."
"This aunt, I really don't sell food or change food." Xu Dong said helplessly.
The aunt looked at his face: "Big brother, the aunt has five pounds of corn flour in his hand, and wants to change to you with potatoes or sweet potatoes."
"Auntie, I'm really not interested, you should find someone else!" Xu Dong repeated.
"Big brother, help!" Aunt begged the aunt.
"It's really not good, I'm sorry!" Xu Dongguan went to the car window and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, the aunt knelt directly in front of the car, and began to hoe without saying a word. It should be hard, and even the forehead was red.
Xu Dong hurriedly got out of the car to help people, this was too troublesome.
"Aunt, get up first."
"Big brother, please, please, the aunt's family really can't live."
"Okay, can I change it!"
Xu Dong was not moved. He had never seen anything in the previous life. He had seen this kind of pediatric department. The reason why he agreed was purely troublesome.
Alas, once it is entangled with such aging people, it is difficult to get away, unless the alarm is called, but the alarm is delayed.
When the aunt heard this, he immediately thanked: "Big brother, aunt, thank you, you are our life -saving benefactor, thank you, thank you!"
"Okay, how do you want to change it?" Xu Dong said impatiently.
"Just at the market price, the aunt uses five pounds of corn flour to change your ten pounds of potatoes, or twelve pounds of sweet potatoes, what do you think?"
"No problem, just press this!"
Xu Dong took out a small electronic scale directly from the car. This was specially bought in order to facilitate the transaction. He kept it in the trunk.
The aunt quickly handed the bags containing corn flour. Xu Dong called it, and the weight was not bad. Then he opened the bag and checked it. The quality was okay.
So I couldn't help nod.
After collecting corn flour, he immediately took out seven or eight sweet potatoes from his own bag, and the electric scale was called:
Twelve pounds and eight two.
"Auntie, see it clearly, there are twelve pounds and eight two, and the extra is the one I will send you."
"Big Brother, thank you, you are the Bodhisattva!" Aunt thanked again.
Xu Dong waved his hand, immediately put the sweet potato bag, and then handed it to the aunt: "Auntie, we have cleared the two now."
"The two are clear, thank you, my aunt."
After Xu Dong left, the aunt instantly seemed to change a person. The poor old woman disappeared, and replaced it with a savvy old lady.
I saw the old lady beckoning next to him, and a middle -aged man immediately came out.
"Mom, are you successful?"
"It became." The old lady proudly said.
The middle -aged man was so excited: "This is fine, our family has not had to be hungry this month."
"It's okay this month, it's hard to say next month." The old lady sighed.
"Mom, what do you see that this person is willing to change food?"
"Mom tells you that after the beginning of the month, you have come to pick up food. There is no shortage of grain in the eight or nine families.
The middle -aged man suddenly realized: "No wonder you come out to change food now."
