NOVEL WEB Chapter 140 Commitment
what's the situation?
She dragged the playback again to listen to the content of those few sentences, and finally figured it out——
This seems to be a "New Year's gift" officially distributed to citizens.
My thoughts became smoother instantly. No wonder everyone was in harmony, no wonder they showed rare smiles, no wonder they suddenly exchanged words of encouragement with each other, no wonder——
She watched the replay again and found that everyone's postures in holding the supply packages had subtly become more relaxed.
Although the supplies have almost doubled, they are no longer as tightly guarded as before.
She was thoughtful. It seemed that the officials had said something during the distribution process, right?
She didn’t know how many people looked at the calendar and counted the days like her, how many people knew that the New Year was coming soon, and how many people didn’t realize the existence of the New Year’s Day until the official New Year’s goods were released today.
Since the official has distributed so many supplies, there must be an explanation. For a big festival like the Chinese New Year, she believes that the official must have given a very inspiring speech.
It is similar to asking everyone to hold on, the country will not give up on everyone; send more this time, everyone will take it back to celebrate a good year; new year, new atmosphere, everything will get better after the new year——
She has every reason to believe that the official will definitely convey the belief that "everything will be fine" because she is quite certain that there must be a golden finger among the official.
The official cheats - or possibly cheats - should also have the function of predicting the next stage of natural disasters, right?
From her own standpoint, she already knew that the heavy rain was followed by extreme cold. Having experienced high temperatures, she actually had a vague idea of how severe the extreme cold would be.
Although I don’t know whether the accumulated water will recede during the “transition period” between heavy rain and extreme cold, but it will freeze one day after the extreme cold.
No matter how deep the water was at that time, under the power of the extreme cold natural disaster, it should be very frozen, right?
Isn't solid ice more convenient than water transportation?
The official evacuation base has been announced to be officially open. By then, the water will be frozen into ice and you can walk. This community is very close to the base. Maybe by then, many people will choose to leave and go to the base.
The heavy rain stage will end in less than two months. If the officials also know that the next stage will be extremely cold and when it will start, maybe the news disclosed to the citizens will be more optimistic——
For example, the official meteorological bureau used some technology to observe when and when the heavy rain would lighten up. Maybe they will directly inform you that the weather may get colder and remind everyone to keep warm.
Maybe the officials will work hard to promote the evacuation bases, and even... Wei Jiao feels that the officials may make some kind of promise, such as leading everyone to evacuate the evacuation bases after the water recedes.
This was purely a guess, because she saw that the neighbors who came back today no longer held the supply bags as if to guard against thieves, and she always felt that there was a reason for this.
If the officials only distributed New Year's goods, gave New Year blessings, and said some words of encouragement, everyone would not be so relaxed. Looking at everyone's expressions, it is clear that they are full of hope.
She feels that if the official does not point out a clear path, then people who have received such a large package of rich supplies should be more careful to protect themselves against looting.
Now that the apocalypse has passed several months ago, people have been short of food and water for some time. So under what circumstances will people "relax their vigilance" about the supply packages?
It must be because everyone believes that no one will come to rob it. Why is this? It should be that the official sent some kind of signal and gave some kind of commitment.
Let everyone know that the officialdom is still there, people have not given up, and there is still hope in life; order is still there, and if you do bad things, you will be punished in the future.
Of course, these were all her guesses. After all, she could only see the small area captured by the surveillance camera on the door, and the people she saw were all people on the same floor.
According to the basis of the system's room selection, it is also possible that the floor or building she is on is relatively safe, and other buildings may have become chaotic.
She just thought it was interesting to think about these things, and she didn't care enough to find out more about them, so after watching the surveillance video, she quickly put it aside and turned around to continue watching the TV series.
She didn't know that these guesses really matched up.
A few more days passed, and finally it came to New Year's Eve.
She got up early in the morning, happily marked the exact time on her calendar, and wrote it next to the small words "New Year's Eve".
You can put aside those unimportant routines today and think about how you want to spend this new year.
The first is the decoration of the room. She has finished this item two days in advance. Everything that needs to be posted is put up, which is full of Chinese New Year flavor.
The Spring Festival couplets were not allowed to be posted because they were too conspicuous, so she posted them directly at the bedroom door.
When choosing the content of the Spring Festival couplets, there are many simple blessings in the cultural context of the country, such as "prosperity in wealth", which wishes for prosperity, and "sesame seeds blooming steadily", which wishes for promotion.
Considering the reality of the current apocalypse, these two are of little use.
Want to be promoted? How can there be any official to promote her? The only gold finger that can be promoted, "Survival Guide to the End of the World", has long been unable to be promoted.
As for getting rich, there is no need to bless her. For her, the money that can be made now is just points, isn't it? With this whole building as an object to earn points, you can have enough food and clothing without having to do anything every day as long as you think about it.
Just, literally, just congratulate her on getting rich.
So she chose a pair of Spring Festival couplets that symbolized peace and posted them on both sides of the door. In the last days, what could be more worthy of blessing than peace?
Speaking of which, she encountered unexpected obstacles during the selection process, because she found that the Spring Festival couplets on the market that bless peace are generally inseparable from the image of "four seasons", and horizontal batches always have "peace in and out".
Just...how can there be four seasons now?
She was determined not to leave or leave her house, but what if she posted a "safe entry and exit" sign and forced her to leave and leave?
After all, there are always some selective superstitions. If you believe it, there will be some. If you don't believe it, you will feel uneasy. So you might as well believe it.
Spring couplets were pasted around the door frame, and the Chinese character "福" was pasted on the door. She pasted the Chinese character "福" on both the inside and outside of the bedroom door, and she also pasted a large square "福" character on the inside of the door with gold powder on the red background. .
The light flashed over and shone brightly.
The kitchen door and the balcony door are both glass doors. She did not put the word "Dafu" on them, but put on hollow window grilles, which are beautiful and do not block the view too much.
Window grilles with complicated patterns are best matched with glass materials, but forget it on the windows. Even if there is a privacy layer, it would be too arrogant to stick things directly on them.
Pasted in the middle is a round window grille purchased from Goldfinger with the Chinese characters for "Fu" and zodiac animals cut out. It is extremely delicate.
The surrounding circle is dotted with some small star-shaped and snowflake-shaped window grilles, which are more simple and she cut them herself.
