Chapter 173
Anything that initially frustrates you may end up working out in unexpected ways.
In the beginning, even the top was having a headache. How to suppress the incident of gathering crowds to riot and looting farms. Being too tough can easily provoke a rallying crowd. Now life is hard, many people are on the verge of collapse, the more it is at this time, the harder it is to resume Press, otherwise the harder you press, the harder the rebound will be.
But it is definitely impossible to let them make trouble completely. It is not known when winter will come. People’s rations are on these farms, which is related to the future of the entire residential area.
So the speed of this management is really a bit difficult to control.
It’s just that no one thought that the cause was because of those dead fish, and the end was also because of those dead fish.
Because of the despair of getting sick, Qiufu Newspaper made such a big commotion in District 2. Nine people were beaten to death or burned to death, and three others are still lying in the hospital because of inhalation of thick smoke. , but I heard that it is not easy to cure, even if the life is over, the smoke hurts the heart, lungs and throat, it will still be a medicine jar in the future, but now even the medicine is in short supply, so there is no medicine to fill the medicine jar.
This incident was too bad, so all the accomplices who were caught on the spot that night and interrogated and confessed later, a total of more than 30 people were arrested, and more than 20 people were directly sentenced to life imprisonment, labor reform for life, and more than ten sentences were not low. , Started ten years ago, there is no upper limit on the test performance situation, except for these, their immediate family members are labeled as family members of criminals, and they will not be able to enjoy any government assistance and benefits in the future.
After the trials one by one, those who were hot-headed calmed down, and the people who were about to move back into their shells, calmed down the restlessness that had been under the turmoil again, and a scene that might have needed to be used more The turmoil that took a lot of blood and lives to quell, disappeared in an instant.
But to say that this incident has no other impact, of course it is not. There are no people in the small square market in the second area, and I am probably afraid. I am afraid that a group of people who cannot survive will suddenly smash the oil bottle. But he really died unjustly.
Furthermore, the neighborhood committees of each district began to form self-defense teams. The captains were soldiers with guns dispatched from above. A lot was brushed down.
Daniel also signed up. Although he works in the community, he is only a security officer who maintains order. If he can be admitted to the Self-Defense Forces, the benefits will be better. Anyway, he will try. It is luck if he can pass the exam. Not force.
After learning about the news of the Self-Defense Forces, Mu Nan sent a message to Qin Bing, wanting to ask if he would be dispatched here, but it is said that all the dispatched persons were at the age of retiring from the army, and they just used this to arrange future work. As for Qin Bing, he is not old yet, so he won’t come over.
Mu Nan felt a little pity about this, but it wasn’t a pity too much. It must be more dangerous outside than in the base now, and it would be better to stay in the base.
In addition to Daniel, Cai Wentao is also planning to take the self-defense force exam. Moving bricks on the construction site is not a long-term job, and he has no special talents. He majored in library management at university, which can be said to be a rather unpopular subject. Many universities He didn’t have this department yet, his grades were not good, and he finally got into a university. The scores in other academies were not enough, so he had to repeat it or choose an unpopular major.
In the past, after graduating from this major, if you can enter some government agencies and units to do some clerical work in information management, or work as an administrator in some libraries, if it weren’t for the earthquake and the current environment, even if Cai Wentao chose Unpopular, he doesn’t need to worry about work after graduation. His father is an urban management officer and a regular worker. It’s no problem for him to take the exam for a civil servant, and then find a relationship with the old leader to find a comfortable pension department.
Although what he has learned now does not help him survive in any way, but his father is a party member and was once a public official. He also joined the party in college. This party membership is still a plus for the assessment of the Self-Defense Force.
In addition, he has a happy family, with seniors and juniors, which is even more divided. Now the value of force is not the first consideration, but the stability of personality. After all, life is so difficult, and those who are not able to resist psychological pressure are affected by the environment. , It is easy to go astray, what they want to choose is a person with a positive temperament, not a person who is full of dark sides and unstable temperaments who have been trained by the environment.
The two people I knew went to the Self-Defense Forces exam, and Jian Chu, who had nothing to do at home, was also a little ready to move. He was not bad at all, but if he hadn’t been infected with a parasite before, he felt a little stretched, and he felt that he was very suitable.
Song Jia hit him mercilessly: “Do you want to faint from heat stroke while on patrol, or do you want to search for toilets when something happens to save someone?”
Jian Chu stretched out his hand to pinch Song Jia’s neck: “Is it interesting to expose the old man?”
Mu Nan failed to make it himself, so he simply fed the steamed custard to Niu Niu, shaking his head and sighing: “Childish human beings, right?”
Niuniu ate baji baji, the tail behind her buttocks flicked non-stop.
The two over there had been arguing for a while, gasping for breath with exhaustion, and then Jian Chu looked over a bit, and saw the lump in Mu Nan’s hand that he didn’t know what it was, and it hurt a little: “Next time Just ask me if you know how to do it, even if you have a lot of eggs, you can’t stand such a waste. Next time you want to beat the egg whites, remember to put them in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to half an hour, add a little sugar, don’t dip them in water, otherwise If you can’t get it out, you will be confused.”
Song Jia also came over and patted Niu Niu’s head: “It’s okay, it doesn’t matter if it’s egg white or egg yolk, it won’t be wasted if it fails, we have Niu Niu here.”
Jian Chu poked Mu Nan: “Will your brother go to the self-defense force?”
Mu Nan shook his head: “No, I don’t trust him to go. If he goes, I’m afraid I’ll be worried every day.”
Song Jia smiled and said, “How can it be possible to engage in self-defense forces instead of high-paid IT elites?”
After feeding the failed dessert to Niuniu, Mu Nan clapped her hands and stood up: “Okay, you guys can play by yourself, I’m going home.”
Song Jia hooked his clothes: “Don’t go, let’s fight the landlord?”
Mu Nan showed a mouthful of white teeth: “I’m going back to eat rabbits, my brother baked baby rabbits for me today, if you smell the smell, don’t drool, girl, I’ll save the rabbit bones for you .”
Jane Chu: “…”
Song Jia: “…”
Depend on! Can you be an individual!
Mu Nan vaccinated them, lest the dog-nosed Jian Chu smell the smell, and ask about the smell, then it would be a bit like eating alone food, and vaccinate them in advance, although they still eat alone food and don’t intend to share it, but The perception will be better.
He didn’t care about this bit of rabbit meat, but his brother was right, neighbors help each other, but we should also pay attention to the distance.
When he got home, Mu Nan smelled the tempting smell of cumin, the oven was humming, and the light inside was illuminating the oily and smooth little milk rabbit. The rabbit was not big, even Mao said it was less than four catties, but Qin Huai said that the rabbits were the most tender at this time, although if they were kept for another two months they would be considered as baby rabbits, but the taste was not as good as it is now.
Mu Nan couldn’t bear the temptation, so he simply killed one and asked Qin Huai to cook it for him.
But after all, he was raised by himself, and even though he said that eating was not a burden at all, he still felt a little bit overwhelmed, so he simply took the failed dessert to Song Jia’s house to feed Niu Niu, and came back after Qin Huai was done with it.
Seeing the rabbit meat already in the oven, Mu Nan didn’t feel any burden at all, only the saliva that kept coming out, and worries about the size: “It doesn’t feel like it’s enough to eat?”
Qin Huai: “It’s not just this. I’ll roast some garlic enoki mushrooms for you later. The shrimps are also processed. I’ll cook you a plate of spicy shrimps and a piece of blanched lettuce. What else do you want to eat?”
Mu Nan looked at Qin Huai hesitantly: “Suddenly being so kind to me, do you plan to fatten up before eating?”
With a helpless face, Qin Huai flicked his forehead gently with his fingers: “What’s the date today?”
Mu Nan touched his forehead: “September 6th, eh? September 6th? It’s my birthday tomorrow.”
Speaking of this birthday, I think Mu Nan, his parents and the whole family complained about the wrong date of birth more than once, almost once every year when school starts.
It is said that when Mu Nan’s mother was pregnant with Mu Nan, the due date was at the end of August, just before September, but there was no movement until the end of August. After waiting and waiting, she missed September 1st and waited for a few more days. There was no movement, and finally I was worried that something would happen to the baby if it stayed in the womb for too long, so it was not pushed into the delivery room until after 11 o’clock in the evening on September 6, and it was not delivered by caesarean section until midnight.
At that time, their school age was very stuck. They could go to school when they turned seven at the end of August, but they couldn’t go to school when they turned seven on September 35th. They had to wait until next year, so that Mu Nan could get as close as possible to him. Although they cannot be in the same grade, at least they can be in the same school period for a period of time. Mu Nan’s father is looking for relationships and spent a lot of money to get him into the school.
Otherwise, with Mu Nan’s birthday, they just missed it completely. When he was in his first year of high school, Mu Nan had just entered the first year of junior high school. Except for elementary school, it would be impossible for him to be in the same school later.
Mu Nan didn’t care about birthdays at first, and in the next few years, he didn’t have the habit of celebrating birthdays anymore. Although Qin Huai would celebrate his birthday every year after he came back, Mu Nan himself I didn’t care, so I didn’t make a special effort to keep track of the time. In addition, the tragedy in the second district had not passed two days, and I completely forgot my birthday.
Qin Huai is making cake embryos, and it has been processed here. The roasted rabbit meat in the oven should just come out of the pan. After the cake is ready, the shrimp will be grilled, so that after the meal, you can have a cake for dessert.
“It’s still early, do you want to wait for me to make the cake before eating, or wait until the meal is over and make the cake with me?”
Mu Nan: “Let’s make it together after eating, it’s just in time to digest and digest, and you can eat it directly when it’s ready.”
Qin Huai is not very good at Western-style desserts, but because Mu Nan loves sweets, he has learned it on purpose when he was abroad, otherwise he might not be able to complete a birthday cake independently with the help of the strategies downloaded from the Internet .
The prawns were just out of the pan, and the garlic enoki mushrooms that were put in the oven later were ready. The time was exactly at the point between the 6th and the 7th. Qin Huai put the prepared cake embryos into the oven, set the time, and sat down. Arriving at the small dining table: “In another half an hour, at half past twelve, Nan Nan will be one year older, officially crossing the age of twenty-six and entering the age of twenty-seven.”
Mu Nan clapped his hands and cheered: “I’m also a mature man who is going to be in his third year!”
Mu Nan looked at his fair and tender face, who looked like he could rejoin high school in his school uniform, smiled without saying a word: “Today is your birthday, you are the biggest, you can decide what you want to eat and drink.”
Before Mu Nan could be happy, Qin Huai said, “But if you indulge too much, you will know the consequences.”
If this last sentence was not added, Mu Nan would have had a much happier birthday this year!
Indulgence is naturally not dare to indulge casually, the most is to eat the spicy shrimp that he has been thinking about, and then drink a whole can of Coke, Mu Nan is already very satisfied, life is so humble.
The roasted milk rabbit is really very tender. Although the rabbit does not have a lot of meat, it is not even as solid as a roast chicken, but the tender taste is much better than that of roast chicken.
It’s just that this person, as he grows older, is indeed not very good at certain aspects. When he was twenty years old, this roasted baby rabbit was not enough to fit Mu Nan’s teeth. After losing two rabbit legs, I was already a little tired. Fortunately, there are spicy shrimps to relieve the tiredness.
Qin Huai finished eating the rabbit that Mu Nan couldn’t finish, and Mu Nan specially asked him to spit out the bones in a small homemade wastebasket: “Keep it for Niu Niu, although the bones of rabbits are all small bones, but the last time I saw Niu Niu chewing It’s crunching, the bite force of this bone-gnawing should be pretty good.”
Qin Huai: “I can’t give you all the bones, pick some cartilage, if it is too hard, if it is swallowed whole and scratches the intestines, there is no condition for medical treatment right now, so don’t do bad things with good intentions.”
Mu Nan had never raised a dog before, so he felt that a dog should be able to chew any bone, but what Qin Huai said must be reasonable, as long as he was obedient, it would be fine.
After eating and drinking enough, he burped with the smell of spicy shrimp mixed with cumin, Mu Nan slumped comfortably on the chair and rubbed his stomach, Qin Huai began to finish the game.
He was so full that Mu Nan had to stand up and inspect his own territory to digest food, and when he returned from a stroll upstairs and downstairs, Qin Huai was whipping cream in the kitchen.
Mu Nan reached out and poked in the bowl, expressing his opinion: “The sweetness is not enough.”
Qin Huai waved him away: “Eat so sweet, beware of diabetes.”
Seeing that Qin Huai didn’t accept his opinion at all, Mu Nan approached again: “This is my birthday cake, shouldn’t it be made according to my preference?”
Qin Huai raised his hand to gently tickle the cream, Mu Nan thought he wanted to taste the sweetness for himself, but the cream on Qin Huai’s index finger was rubbed onto his mouth, and before Mu Nan stretched out his tongue to lick it off, The instigator who rubbed the cream on him kissed him, bit on his lips, and ate up the cream that was just smeared on him.
Don’t forget to comment: “It’s very sweet, and the sweetness will exceed the standard.”
Mu Nan smacked his mouth, subconsciously looked at the cream left on his fingers, the inexplicable radar sounded the alarm, he felt that if he continued to stay here, the result would be only one word, danger!
As a result, as soon as he moved, Qin Huai, who had predicted his prediction, directly grabbed him with one hand, and asked in a low voice, “Do you know how to eat butter is the sweetest?”
Mu Nan hurriedly shook her head flatteringly: “I don’t want it to be so sweet, I’ll get diabetes, I don’t eat sweet cream anymore.”
Qin Huai chuckled lightly when he heard the words: “No, you want it.”
As a result, on the day Mu Nan officially bid farewell to the age of 26 and entered the age of 27, he successfully unlocked a variety of new ways to eat cream, and how to make ordinary sweet cream to make people so sweet by magic.
As for the lone cake embryo that wasn’t even covered with cream, it became Mu Nan’s breakfast the next day.
It’s a birthday, and I can’t wait to lie at home for two days. When Mu Nan is alive and kicking again, the assessment of Daniel and the others is over, and both of them are very lucky to be selected. Wanted to have a dinner together as an excuse to celebrate.
But the poor are really poor, and they are temporarily overshadowed by the fish, so they can only congratulate across the net.
When the two were officially on duty, Shi Yuanfei came to Qin Huai to buy Chinese cabbage, saying that he wanted to have a good meal, his wife was finally released from the hospital, and that he was going out on a mission tomorrow.
The first batch of Chinese cabbage was not completely picked. The ones given to Wang Xiaoli were relatively large. The remaining ones may have grown slowly due to sunlight and moisture, so they were kept. Now they are growing again. It can be picked.
Shi Yuanfei directly bought two, intending to eat half of them, let his wife marinate the remaining one and a half and try to make spicy cabbage, so that it can be kept for a longer time and can be served with rice.
When Qin Huai was packing Chinese cabbage for Shi Yuanfei, Mu Nan asked curiously: “Is there any mission out there now? I’ll just ask, if it’s a secret, just pretend I didn’t ask.”
Shi Yuanfei smiled indifferently: “It’s not a secret. If you don’t ask me, I was going to tell you. This time I went to a coastal city. The source of the fish problem needs to be found out. The epigastric virus analyzed above is said to be familiar The epigastric virus is a bit different, and its shape is a little different. As for what kind of mutation or consequences this difference will cause, it is not clear for the time being, the conditions are limited, and the inspection equipment for many things is insufficient, but one thing is certain. There has been no human-to-human transmission of the virus from dead fish to humans, but once it is acquired, there is currently no effective treatment.”
Mu Nan was shocked to the point of fear: “If you get it, you will die?”
Shi Yuanfei nodded: “It can be said that according to the information we found out, the last batch of fish they bought was concentrated in several markets over there, so some people ate it without any problem, and some people ate it. Trick, this time in the past is to assist the other side to find out the source.”
“Need to assist? Are there not enough people over there?”
Qin Huai handed two packed Chinese cabbages to Shi Yuanfei, and Shi Yuanfei sighed softly: “That’s why I want to tell you about this, since we discovered the virus, we have been in touch with them through satellite phone , The situation there was very bad at that time. Originally, the coastal area, the planting conditions were not good, and they could only eat what was caught in the sea. Now I don’t know if they were infected in the sea, or there was a mistake in the fishing and transportation process, and they got sick there. There are many more people than here, and there is no effective treatment, and many people die every day, and the situation is very chaotic.”
“Stay as much stuff as you can at home. The northern side is just short of water, and batch after batch have escaped. Now the coastal side has died of countless illnesses, and there are corpses everywhere. I am afraid that many people will also want to flee. We here There are many provinces and cities that have been rebuilt on the side, although they may not come to our side, but it is always right to be prepared.”
Shi Yuanfei took the Chinese cabbage and left, Mu Nan looked back at Qin Huai, really quite frightened: “If it wasn’t for the fact that the three fish we bought were a bit bad, the whole thing stinks, if it’s just a little bit stale, We might eat it.”
Qin Huai was also afraid: “In the future, you can put the things you buy from outside directly into the space, be it rice noodles, meat or vegetables, put them together, and make a record of the time of purchase. If there is a problem with any batch, we will also It’s easy to check, from now on we will eat the things we bought before the end of the world, and don’t touch the things after the end of the world for the time being.”
Mu Nan nodded without any objection: “Okay.”
After Mu Nan finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and looked at Qin Huai: “Do you want to talk about this in the group?”
Qin Huai said: “Let’s talk, they are not talkative people, remind them, let them not talk about it, even the people on our side who have been infected with the virus have not been officially notified, it must be worried about causing panic, Just let them know for themselves.”
Mu Nan nodded, and talked about the matter in the large group, emphatically urging the hoarding of food to come secretly, and don’t talk about this matter, and then jumped to the small group that is constantly creating unread messages at the moment .
Jian Chu and Song Jia were already chatting about Daqun’s news in full swing.
Song Jia: “I don’t know whether to say we are lucky or not. It’s rare to eat a fish. When we encounter this kind of thing, we are lucky to be fine.”
Mu Nan: “Fortunately, this incident is over, so don’t worry about it. Anyway, we are all fine. My brother said that any meat you buy in the future must be bought from the official. This kind of private logistics provider It’s unreliable, and I don’t know where their sources of goods come from, it’s safer to buy from the government.”
Song Jia: “I think so too. Although it’s rare to grab one, you’re lucky if you can grab it once out of ten times, but at least it’s safe. I’d rather not eat it, but be safe!”
Jian Chu: “Should we stock up on food?”
When it comes to hoarding grain, they naturally thought of the private grain dealer that Xu Ming recommended to them last time. How long can I eat a catty of grain, I can’t afford to hoard it.”
Even Mu Nan said that the price of food cannot afford to hoard, let alone Jian Chu and the others, but because of Shi Yuanfei’s news, they panicked a little, and always wanted to buy something to hoard to go home so that they could feel at ease.
