Chapter 2225: The Ice Age Planted the Sun (15)

As time goes by, not only are prices rising slowly, but the plan for population migration to the south has also been completed one after another.

The situation of people who have frozen to death is gradually approaching zero.

Although the population of many southern cities suddenly soared by 10% or 20%, causing some pressure.

But overall, it's actually okay.

After all, due to the cold wave, there are not many northern regions with temperatures below fifty or sixty degrees. Only some areas in the north that are already colder will drop to so low, and the temperature in other places will drop to thirty or forty degrees. In the case of floor heating, they are generally still in a tolerable level, so they do not have to move south.

At most, the heating fee has increased a lot.

The lower the temperature, the more energy it will consume for heating, and the increase in heating costs is reasonable.

Therefore, in the end, the population that really needs to migrate to the south is less than 80 million, and the number seems to be large, but once it is scattered to major cities, there are not many people in each city.

In addition, those northerners who temporarily migrated to the south currently mainly live in centralized heating. Thousands of people live in major centralized heating places together, so major cities can still bear it, at most, because they are short of supplies.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

In the beginning, people were not moved in, but those cities had already experienced material shortage due to various reasons such as cold waves. Now that some people have moved in, the situation is naturally worse.

Fortunately, the main things are short of vegetables and meat.

There is still no shortage of staple food.

Therefore, the so-called shortage of materials is actually that the food is not as good and rich as it has not been eaten.

No matter what...

That's much happier than decades ago.

Some people feel dissatisfied, but it is just because they are used to good life and it is difficult to go from extravagant to frugality.

Anyone who picks up a few ordinary people from ancient times is not required to suffer disasters. Or ordinary people throw them into the centralized heating places today. No one will feel dissatisfied or even feel very happy, because there are at least three meals a day, rice or noodles, and so on.

As long as it doesn't waste it.

This is definitely a lot of ancient people.

Treatment is rare several times a year.

If you encounter frugal things, you may not have eaten them.

I have never eaten rice without any mixed grains and snow-white, fine grain noodles.

So, people are still used to it.

But no matter what, at least the overall situation in the country has stabilized, and new breeding farms and planting bases are being built one after another. Some agricultural and industrial production that were hit hard by the sudden arrival of the cold wave have begun to recover slowly.

Everything seems to be moving in a good direction.

Time flies and the New Year is coming.

However, this year is different from previous years. There are quite a few families who have died in their families this year, and some are more miserable, and there may be only a few left in the family.

Or I went to a community nearly half.

This is not a joke.

Some communities are elderly communities, and most of the communities live in elderly people. Children may work hard in big cities or other places. The extremely cold weather is quite unfriendly to people with poor physical fitness, so what's impossible to reduce the household registration of such a community in half?

Therefore, this year's Spring Festival, it is really difficult for everyone to squeeze out laughter and joy. Even due to the weather, many people who work outside did not go home.

Everyone can only spend this special Spring Festival by video or phone.

Then continue to spend your normal life the next day.

Of course, not everyone is like this. There are still people who visit relatives everywhere in the first and second grades of the lunar calendar, but the number is much smaller than in previous years. Liu Jianguo and his family are one of them. In previous years, they visited their parents first on the lunar calendar, and then went to their father-in-law and mother-in-law's house for lunch, and then came back after dinner.

This time, Qiao Mu's wife passed away.

It was really inappropriate to leave Qiaomu alone at home, so they simply took Qiaomu with them and went to Su Wenjuan's eldest brother's house.

Since Su Wenjuan's father passed away.

Her mother lived with her eldest brother.

So when their family reunited, of course, they were at her eldest brother's house. Qiao Mu passed by. Although the gatherings in their family were a little different from those in previous years, everyone could understand them. So the meal was quite friendly. After the meal, Su Wenjuan's younger brother did not strongly invite Liu Jianguo to stay and play the cards for a few hours before going back like in previous years.

This year is different from previous years. If it was really too late, the car would not be easy to start. For everyone's safety, they naturally would not dare to keep customers.

After returning from the first day of the New Year, Liu Jianguo and his family no longer visited other relatives.

At most, it is a video to wish you a New Year.

Then their family continued to start feuding.

This cat is in April.

From the end of the Chinese New Year, the temperature on their side has entered a slow state of increase, but the increase rate is very slow, and it may only increase by one or two degrees in a week. It is not until the end of March and after the vernal equinox that the heating rate is slightly faster.

But even so, it was only after Grain Rain that it was mid-April that the daily minimum temperature returned to zero and no longer freeze.

It was also until this time.

Only then did Liu Jianguo and his wife think about finding a job.

The two of them were ate at home for four or five months and my son and my mother were still a little embarrassed, so when the temperature recovered, they of course wanted to find a job to make money. At the same time, they also prepared to save money in advance for the cold wave that might come again in half a year.

However, people of their age.

It is easy to resign, but it is difficult to find another job, because most companies do not recruit middle-aged people.

As for the overall situation, most companies only recruit employees over the age of 18 and under the age of 40. Some companies, such as some companies that recruit programmers, may have stricter conditions, such as recruiting people under the age of 35.

Liu Jianguo is 48 years old this year, Su Wenjuan is two years older than him, fifty years old this year, and in a few months it will be his fifty birthday. It is absolutely difficult for ordinary people of this age to find a job without any particularly beautiful performance.

It's just sweeping the streets and looking at the toilets.

Then maybe they can't compete with others.

So after half a month of struggle, Liu Jianguo and Su Wenjuan came back in despair.

It's not that others don't want them.

They just think that their wages are low.

How can I find a job if I do this?

Looking at them, coupled with their concerns about the future, Qiaomu finally made up his mind and made a suggestion after dinner the night when the couple fell back again:

"Jianguo, Wenjuan, I have always seen your job search these days, and I have also searched some information online. With your current age and ability, it is really difficult to find a job that satisfies you.

So, I have a suggestion here.

Let's move to the countryside.

We moved to the countryside to rent a piece of land and found a way to build a greenhouse. Then you are responsible for farming, raising chickens and ducks. As long as there is no problem with power supply, we can still make money in winter."
