I Can Read Unlimited Files - Chapter 663
The advantage of the heavy snow is that it will be very quiet outside, there is no sound in the whole world, and Liu Huaxing can even clearly hear the slight breathing of Yang Xiaoxiao, Liu Yuxi and Hao Qian. But Liu Huaxing himself didn’t fall asleep. He pulled the quilt on for three people, then hugged Yang Xiaoxiao’s slender waist and stroked her swollen lower abdomen.
Yang Xiaoxiao let out a slight hum in his sleep, which seemed very comfortable.
“Silly girl.” Liu Huaxing smiled, kissed her on the cheek, then hugged her to sleep.
Because the snow was so quiet, the whole family didn’t get up until ten o’clock in this sleep.
“Oh, this is incredible.” Liu Huaxing opened the curtains and looked outside and couldn’t help sighing.
Just looking at it this way, the outside world has become a piece of white snow, and the heavy snow of goose feathers still doesn’t stop. Judging from the walking conditions of a few pedestrians on the street, the snow has already submerged to their knees, and it is half a meter deep, to say less.
“Trouble.” Liu Huaxing frowned and sighed.
In the morning, the family members watched the news while eating breakfast.
Unsurprisingly, the heavy snow caused the entire city to enter a state of paralysis and isolation. Paralysis is the second, and isolation is the most serious. The highway was blocked by snow, making it impossible for vehicles from other provinces to pass.
Although snow shovel trucks have been urgently dispatched to clear the snow on the highway, it still takes two or three days to open the road. And this is an ideal situation. If the snow continues to fall like this, Beichang City may be isolated for a longer time.
This phenomenon directly caused the price of vegetables in the entire city to skyrocket, and even triggered a round of panic. Many people rushed to the supermarket to snap up the supplies on the shelves. Many shelves have been swept away, making it seem like the end of the world.
But Liu Huaxing knows that this is not necessary for the time being. Beichang City’s own reserves can still supply the entire city for one month. It is not the materials that cause the panic, but the hearts of the people.
Of course, it is impossible for this snow to isolate Beichang City for a month. After a long period of time, all parts of the country will soon send support, as long as they don’t want civil strife. But because of this heavy snow, the city extended the holiday to three days.
After breakfast, Liu Huaxing sat at the table with his family and chatted while making dumplings.
“Oh, this heavy snow is still a little scary.” Lu Jing frowned and complained, “Isn’t it the end of the world?”
“Don’t be afraid, we still have so many cans.” Liu Huaxing smiled, “Enough for our family for a few years.”
“Then it’s finished?!” Lu Jing asked angrily.
Liu Huaxing thought for a while and said: “We build a greenhouse at home. We build one in our front yard and backyard. Then we grow some greenhouse vegetables, tomatoes, potatoes, corn, etc., and can be used together with canned food. It will last a long time. Up.”
“Oh, you kid!” Lu Jing frowned and glared at him. “Will other people let us just plant it like this? They’ve come to grab it! Why do you keep stumbling with me? I don’t know how serious the matter is. …”
“The kid wants you to calm down.” Liu Xuebin reprimanded, “You don’t have to worry about food and clothing at home, why are you in a hurry? You are just like those ignorant aunts who go to the supermarket to **** supplies! The country will let us go. Don’t care?”
“That’s right, Sister Jing, don’t worry.” Wang Mei smiled and comforted: “It’s a big deal, let’s eat canned food first, and then wait for others to starve to death and then we can plant it by ourselves, right? At that time, no one would grab it. Up.”
“…” Everyone at the scene was silent for a while, stunned by her words.
“What do you mother-in-law say in front of the child, really!” Yang Chengzhi reprimanded with dissatisfaction.
“Just kidding, isn’t it because the atmosphere is a little stiff.” Wang Mei covered her mouth and laughed.
Unexpectedly, the humorous cell of my mother-in-law is really amazing… Liu Huaxing smiled and thought to himself.
“Cat!” Liu Yuxi struggled from Yang Xiaoxiao’s arms, reaching out to the coconut passing by them. Yang Xiaoxiao hugged Liu Yuxi and frowned and said, “Um! No, I’m going to eat soon. You can’t touch the cat.”
“Hey, Mao Mao!” Liu Yuxi pursed her mouth unhappily and waved her small hand to Coconut.
Coconut turned his head and glanced at her curiously, then gently jumped onto the sofa, arched his back and rubbed against Liu Yuxi’s hand. Liu Yuxi happily reached out and touched Coconut’s back, and laughed like a silver bell.
“Ouch, Coconut! What are you messing up with!” Yang Xiaoxiao said angrily, while Coconut rubbed her head against her hand while making a slight “snoring” sound.
“Okay, okay, I know you love me.” Yang Xiaoxiao touched Coconut’s head helplessly, and then stood up holding Liu Yuxi: “Go wash your hands with your mother. I’ll have a meal in a while. Kids should wash their hands before eating. Do you have to wash if you touch a cat…”
“Wash your hands…” Liu Yuxi answered dumbly, and was held by Yang Xiaoxiao to wash her hands. Liu Huaxing smiled and watched them leave, then picked up a basket of dumplings and stood up, “Then I’m going to fry dumplings first. Does anyone want to eat and cook dumplings?”
“I eat boiled.” Grandma said with a smile, and Lu Jing added: “I also eat boiled. Let Yuxi cook a few too. She is still young and can’t eat too much oil, and will have diarrhea .”
Liu Huaxing then came to the kitchen with dumplings and started his own three-line operation.
Boil water in a pot to prepare dumplings, and heat oil in a pot to fry dumplings. At the same time, cut the onion, ginger, and garlic to make dumpling sauce. Here is busy, Yang Xiaoxiao’s ridicule came from behind: “Oh, I haven’t been to Late Rice for so many years, this craft hasn’t regressed at all, my husband?”
“That is, don’t look at how many little ancestors I serve every day.” Liu Huaxing replied with a smile.
“Then they serve you too.” Yang Xiaoxiao said with a bit of aegyo, and came to him with Liu Yuxi in her arms.
Liu Huaxing dipped a little dumpling sauce and handed it to Yang Xiaoxiao’s mouth, and the little girl took a bite.
“Not spicy enough.” Yang Xiaoxiao licked her lips and smiled, “and a lot of chili oil.”
“I’ll make a spicy one for you alone later.” Liu Huaxing said, scratching her nose, and then sighed: “It’s good when it snows. Just think about how to eat three meals a day. That’s it.”
“Yeah.” Yang Xiaoxiao smiled happily, “It reminds me of the days when we were trapped in the RV, and it’s good to think about how to eat three meals a day every day.”
“Tsk, we are trapped, what are you happy about?” Liu Huaxing said, spanking her ass.
“I’m happy.” Yang Xiaoxiao hummed happily, and hugged Liu Yuxi to the living room. “I’ll go in with Yuxi first, oh husband?”
“Go, I’ll be fine in another twenty minutes.” Liu Huaxing responded, and then resumed his work.
After lunch, the family can finally take a break and relax in the afternoon. The parents play mahjong at home, and Liu Huaxing is busy again.
Today is the second day of the blizzard, and various problems have gradually been exposed. The main thing is the home of stray animals. Because of the blizzard last night, more homeless people moved to the home of stray animals today. There was already overcrowded, but now two people squeeze a bed and still can’t provide enough rest.
Therefore, Liu Huaxing intends to communicate with the government to see if there is a place where these people can be accommodated.
But after such a contact, Lu Qi told him that there was something wrong with the plan he had booked.
Something went wrong, this is Liu Huaxing’s most hated word. He is a person who can plan everything, so he hates the things that break his plan. Of course, Yang Xiaoxiao is the only exception, she is the sweetest “chat” in his life.
But the Home of Stray Animals is different here. First of all, the fruits and vegetables ordered have gone back and overturned the previous price, saying that they would sell it at a higher price. After all, in this weather, the prices of fruits and vegetables are also normal.
But people are iron rice or steel, and even if the other party takes advantage of the fire, there is no way, after all, things outside can’t get in right now.
“Buy some more back, buy a week’s portion, don’t care about the price.” Liu Huaxing frowned and said anxiously, “In addition, if you can, buy some instant noodles, canned food, etc., just in case. Make sure to stray animals. The hot water and heating of the house, milk and eggs, etc. must not be cut off. The rest… are the employees okay?”
“Well, it’s okay for now. There are some employees from other places who have poor accommodation and set up a hotel for them.” Lu Qi explained, “Others also sent some consolation items, although only instant noodles and Snacks or something, but…”
“Let’s do this for now.” Liu Huaxing replied, “You have to stock up as many supplies as possible.”
“I know, fortunately, the price of pet supplies like cat food and dog food hasn’t risen…” Lu Qi said with a sigh.
After hanging up the phone, Liu Huaxing scratched his head annoyingly, while Yang Xiaoxiao silently grabbed his hand and kissed him, and then put it on his face: “What’s the matter, husband? I’ll wash your hair for itchy hair. Head?”
“No, that’s not upsetting.” Liu Huaxing sighed and gently squeezed Yang Xiaoxiao’s pink face.
“What’s upsetting? Our family has so much money, even if they increase tenfold, we can still afford it.” Yang Xiaoxiao put his hand on his back and looked at him with a smile, “I remember that there was a similar thing before. Later, didn’t we persuade my dad to distribute the materials that are not available for late rice to everyone?”
“Yeah…” Liu Huaxing nodded and smiled, holding Yang Xiaoxiao’s face and dragging her to kiss him: “At that time we were still living in the small house over there.”
“Yeah! I remember we used to soak our feet in a basin at that time.” Yang Xiaoxiao smiled happily and said, “I like to step on your feet to soak because my feet are relatively cold and the water temperature is too good for me. It’s hot.”
“Hey! Yes!” Liu Huaxing slapped Yang Xiaoxiao, then hugged Yang Xiaoxiao: “Wife, you are really a genius!”
After speaking, Liu Huaxing grabbed his mobile phone, contacted He Li and Lu Qi, and instructed them: “Now you should immediately contact various restaurants in our city, preferably chain stores and large restaurants and hotels, and send their materials. Buy it all! The lower the price, the better. You can buy as much as you can, even if you can’t use it up!”
Just like the last time, the city is now closed for three days. With such a thick snow on the road, citizens try not to go out, and restaurants naturally do not need to open. In this case, all the ingredients in the restaurant are wasted. Even if they are stored in the freezer, the fruits and vegetables are usually kept fresh for about a week, and they are definitely willing to sell these ingredients.
And this is just an ordinary restaurant. Chain stores such as McDonald’s and Wallace, whose ingredients are distributed to the whole country in a unified package, are more convenient for storage. Not only can you buy it for your own use, but you can also subsidize others.
But now is the second day, I believe everyone has not used up their own reserves, but it will be hard to say in two days.
Although the last snow disaster lasted for seven days, the situation this time was worse than the last time, and the snow was still so heavy the next day.
And the most troublesome part of this time is that not only the city of Beichang was hit by the snowstorm, half of the cities in the country were hit by this cold wave, and even many places in winter in foreign countries could not escape.
The last time the snow disaster was able to survive, in fact, thanks to the assistance from all over the country at that time, snow shovel trucks concentrated on clearing the snow on their highway. But this time there are too many snow-covered roads, resources cannot be concentrated in one spot, and the speed of natural processing will be much slower. Liu Huaxing estimated that this La Niña phenomenon is probably going to last for more than a week.
That’s why he asked He Li and Lu Qi to go to the restaurant to purchase these materials, and then store them just in case. As for how much they can buy… Liu Huaxing estimated that he might not be able to buy the demand he expected.
“Oh, that’s it for today.” Liu Huaxing sighed, and threw the phone aside. Then he wanted to relieve the pressure accumulated by the blizzard, so he shouted: “Xiao Mi Tao! where?”
After a while, Liu Yuxi quietly poked out half of his head from the study, and the lovely double ponytails dropped down, hiding behind the door frame and sneaking at him. Liu Huaxing smiled: “I see you, come here.”
Liu Yuxi hurriedly hid in the study, Liu Huaxing sighed secretly: “This little baby, has also begun to play hide-and-seek age. It’s a bit bad, the house is so big, it’s hard to find it in hiding. Then… ”
“Oh, did I read it wrong? In that case, dad is going to eat Xiaomi Peach’s favorite peach pudding?” Liu Huaxing sighed and said, Liu Yuxi screamed and ran happily from the study. When she came out, she bumped her head on Liu Huaxing’s leg, and she was so scared that Liu Huaxing hugged her quickly: “Oh, run slower Little Ancestor, she fell.”
“Eat pudding!” Liu Yuxi smiled while hugging him.
“Then you kiss my dad.” Liu Huaxing pointed to his face, Liu Yuxi took a sip, Liu Huaxing was satisfied, and walked to the kitchen holding Liu Yuxi: “Go and eat pudding.”
