Chapter 77 Future Plans
[Only released by Jinjiang Literature City]
Perhaps it was because in the previous journey, they experienced almost all the disasters. After seeing off the two e-country teenagers, the remaining drive became very smooth.
After leaving the unmanned land, they would pass by some small towns from time to time, with the idea of stocking up goods in a scattered manner. Whenever they went there, they would buy water and medicines in moderation and replenish fuel in moderation.
Since You Xi filled the ten cubic meters of fuel space before, she felt a little less fuel after refueling.
She really wanted to keep the fuel space full forever, which would give her a very safe feeling.
She didn't know if this was considered an obsessive-compulsive disorder. Anyway, after returning to Beijing, the fuel control was strict, and it was impossible to buy freely like now. So, taking advantage of the opportunity now, we naturally continue to stock up.
She was afraid that Youqi and Tang Yatong would not spend enough money along the way, so she found an opportunity to sell two gold bars at a local gold shop, and exchanged a lot of cash to double the stock.
This way, when they finally set foot on the land of Beijing, the part of the water and fuel they had consumed during the journey was replenished several times.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion. As soon as I stepped into the border of Beijing and saw the familiar military uniforms and Chinese people, they always felt that the air smelled twice as fresh and felt a sense of security in their hearts. Along the way, the always tense heartstring finally relaxed.
Perhaps because of the fatigue and sudden relaxation of the journey, Youqi fell ill after arriving at the first small town in Beijing.
She had a high fever, her voice was hoarse, neither taking medicine nor physical cooling worked. In the end, the two anxiously sent her to the hospital.
This hospital is very interesting. I heard that when the second meteorite rain just ended, it was just an ordinary underground mall, but after that, it was converted into the current hospital.
The underground hospital not only installed sealed doors that can be closed in emergency situations, but also reinforced the entire underground building with titanium alloy plates. At the same time, it rebuilt multiple construction units to create operating rooms, intensive care units with various functions, etc.
It is reported that the hospital is at the top of all reconstruction projects, and other functional places such as schools, residential buildings, etc. do not have this important place, because schools can take holidays and residents can hide in the air-raid shelter by themselves after warning.
Only the patients in the hospital, especially some severe patients and those who are undergoing surgery, cannot be transferred immediately.
Therefore, the hospital is the primary shelter.
Even a small city near the border can be renovated at such a speed, and You Xi and the other two couldn't help but have greater expectations for other cities.
You Qi was hospitalized for three days and later turned into pneumonia.
While accompanying her in the hospital, You Xi and Tang Yatong began to inquire about the two previous meteorite rains from various channels.
You Qi's friend did not lie. Compared with the first country of M, the Jing Kingdom, which has caused disasters from other countries such as M, Ying Kingdom, so it has warning in advance.
This warning is of national nature, and it will continue at a high level. Finally, before the meteorite rain officially began, more than 95% of the people in Beijing evacuated into the air-raid shelters in various regions, and the aid materials were not left behind.
It can be said that under the first large-scale explosive meteorite rain, the lives of the vast majority of people were protected.
When a meteorite rain falls, it is infringed on material property.
Beijing has many people and buildings, and every area and every city has dense buildings. Once a meteorite falls, it will cause serious damage to the surrounding area.
This is also the reason why the country is now gathering all its financial, manpower and material resources to build underground air raid shelters on a large scale. After the first meteorite rain, the post-disaster reconstruction work was only halfway through, and the second meteorite rain fell again.
The age of the Meteorite Apocalypse is coming, and countries and cities around the planet are equivalent to being in an era of war-torn years, and the ground is no longer safe.
If meteorites continue to attack the planet on a large scale, humans will sooner or later turn to underground life.
Air raid shelters must not only be built, but also take into account all aspects of safety, stability and comfort.
It is reported that the country has already set up a construction plan for the first to fourth phases, and some experts even put forward a very bold idea.
The theme of this concept is: dungeon.
"Even if the idea of a dungeon is true, it cannot be a matter of one or two years. But it is obvious that in the next few years, the country will lack the most is air raid shelter construction, alloy building materials, seismic material research and development, anti-virus filtration systems, soilless cultivation... related staff."
On that day, You Qi's health improved slightly. After listening to the narrative between You Xi and Tang Yatong, he sighed softly, "It seems that we have to learn something again."
No matter how good the professional knowledge you learned in peacetime, your major will not match your future, and your life will only go downhill.
In the early stages of the disaster, due to state aid, the gap between people may be very small, but the later it goes, the more obvious this gap will be.
They have just returned to China and must prepare for the future.
So, finally, Youqi proposed: "Let's go to the capital, where all the information is the fastest and most complete, and it is convenient to learn some new knowledge. Although everything starts from scratch and may be a little harder in the early stage, as long as we work hard, no matter how difficult it is, we can live a good life."
Tang Yatong smiled and hinted: "Don't worry, I can't suffer."
Her space of ten cubic meters is not big or small. In addition to a dozen full of portable oil barrels, a few escape backpacks, several sets of protective suits and gas masks, all the large items that occupy space have been moved to Youxi's space.
The rest of her space is filled with all kinds of canned fast food, rice, flour, vegetables, fish, eggs and milk, fruit, snacks, cakes, bread, coffee, drinks, wine and water. Even if they can't find a job for the time being, they will not be hungry for a year or two.
What's more, they used their previous deposits and cash to escape along the way, and their gold has not been moved yet. Those can be used as reserve funds and cashed in an emergency.
After the three of them have goals and directions, they will make plans.
First of all, it is the problem of the car. Although the RV is comfortable, it is too conspicuous. Especially after arriving in the capital, if there is a sudden earthquake or other disaster, this place is not an unmanned land. You Xi can put away the car at any time. At that time, you may only be able to watch the car be destroyed or forced to be left behind.
In order to avoid this situation, they plan to buy a second-hand domestic jeep, which has high chassis and collision resistance, and has good domestic security and no reinforcement. They can be put on the road after just a little overhaul.
"You can buy it before arriving in the capital. There is still a long way to go. How many days can the RV be used?"
"Um."
Another issue is the living problem. The ground is no longer safe, and housing prices have been reported to have fallen to an incredible price. Many people want to make a profit from houses and would rather rent a house than buy a house.
Because everyone wants to keep money and stock up on more food and water. Although the country has granaries, it is said that all granaries can be opened to provide food for people in the entire Beijing country for two or three years, but the sense of security is different when putting food in the country and in their own homes.
What's more, in addition to food, everyone also wants to maintain their previous life. Vegetables, fish, meat, fruits and other foods that are intolerant naturally want to continue eating, but due to the influence of meteorites, the price of these foods inevitably increased (within the national control).
So everyone wants to keep their money by their side, but the house becomes the most valuable one.
Although You Qi wanted to move all her household registration to the capital, buying a house at this time was purely paying IQ tax, which was not feasible.
"Let's talk about household registration. Nowadays, the world is so chaotic, and those are not that important for the time being. After going to the capital, you can find small hotels close to air raid shelters or underground buildings. The national early warning work has always been done well, and I believe it will be no exception in the future."
The three of them finished their discussion and were discharged when You Qi fully recovered. Then, according to the previously planned route, they continued to go south along the national highway.
Several domestic radio channels have completely become meteorite disaster broadcast channels. They take turns to report road conditions damaged by meteorites every day, reminding drivers to detour, and there are some earthquake warnings, or some areas that are about to be cut off due to emergency repairs... In short, all kinds of information related to the disaster can be learned from it.
They almost listened to these radio stations as background music along the way, and avoided many detours. Finally, they arrived at a small town near the capital three days later.
They bought a second-hand jeep at a very low price here, and then they put away the RV that night in an unsurveilled area in the suburbs and covered the dense trees and branches.
They all love this RV very much. Before putting it away, they specially found a car wash shop to clean the RV up and down, inside and out, and inspected the tire engine.
At noon the next day, they arrived in the capital.
According to the plan, the three of them found a hotel two days ago. Because there was an underground shelter converted from subway near the hotel, the prices of all hotels, hotels and hotels nearby have increased.
The living conditions of the hotel were average and it was extremely inconvenient to cook. Finally, the three of them discussed and rented a house nearby.
The meteorite disaster has also changed the situation of renting a house. It is usually short-term rental, paying once a month, and then paying a little deposit to move in.
They rented two bedrooms and one living room, just on the first floor, and it took about ten minutes to evacuate to the nearest underground shelter.
The three of them spent half a day cleaning the room, then pulled up all the curtains, and You Xi began to put furniture, appliances and various household items outside like a Doraemon.
Sofa, coffee table, TV, washing machine, microwave, bookcase, bedding, these are all large items and are often used.
The other small items count the number of items you just need, such as clothes, only one or two sets of them are allowed to be placed in the living room, and the rest continue to be placed in the space. Anyway, two of the three people have space, so there is no one else’s convenience.
Afterwards, Youqi and Tang Yatong went out to buy a lot of study materials, and after determining the direction of their future development, they signed up for another study class.
This study class is also located underground. Because it is professionally matched, it was first approved when applying for the qualification to open an underground shelter.
To be honest, the learning environment is not very good, because some infrastructure such as underground and ventilation equipment have not yet fully kept up, and because of large-scale underground fortification construction, the surrounding area is very noisy.
But this is also impossible, because the capital has a large population and many important people, the construction task of underground shelters is heavier than other cities.
The entertainment industry market shrinks, the ground real estate construction industry has become a bubble, scientific and technological talents are scarce, earthquake-resistant building materials orders surge, and protective clothing and gas mask market is in short supply...
People's lives have undergone major changes.
Many people who used to be white-collar workers in the office rolled up their sleeves and changed careers and became construction workers. The situation forced people to grow rapidly. Some things seemed to be different from each other, but after they really followed, they gradually understood them.
Time passed quickly, and before the third meteorite rain forecast day came, You Xi was the first to hear the system sound.
