Chapter 20 Snacks
The fleeing crowd was divided into several batches.wwww,qb5.c0m\.
Those with cars were already hundreds of kilometers away, and some people who were careless and energetic should have arrived in Yuyao City. After walking for a long time, they only walked for more than ten kilometers, and were helpless in Hemudu Town, which was still in danger, all of them were people who were dragging their children and families. They did not want to rush the road, but after walking for a day, how much strength did the people living in the city have to continue moving forward?
Among the millions of fleeing troops, millions of people chose to spend the night in Hemudu Town.
How could the small Hemudu Town accommodate so many people? In fact, starting from the area of Cheqiu Village, all the places where you can take a foot are sleeping or full of people.
Hemudu Town is actually not big. After crossing the bridge, they are all people moving along the rural road towards the center of the town. On both sides of the rural road are green farmland, but at this moment they are crowded with people, shouting and crying, and the vegetables on the farmland become victims under people's feet and are trampled and mixed into the soil.
Zhou Liming knew that under this situation, he wanted to bring this group of exhausted children to the center of the town, and had some delusions. So he discussed with Dean Zhou and found a field with fewer people to settle here for the time being. Looking at the formation in front of him, he hoped that the government could give each person a quilt or a good bed or something, which became delusions.
Fortunately, it is June now, and there is nothing wrong with staying outside the wilderness for one night.
The food that can be eaten in the fields has long been picked. In this case, who can still care whose field belongs to and whether it can be picked?
"Uncle, when I came here just now, didn't the notice say that there was a food collection?"
Almost all the people who chose to live here temporarily were family units, and several families stayed together familiar with each other, and were distributed in piles. Zhou Liming had a good eye. In the dark, it was still no different from the daytime. This surprised him. It should be because of the genetic modification. Looking around, there were all people, millions of people laying here, and at least it occupied the entire Hemudu Town.
What Zhou Liming asked was a family around him.
The person asked, who was nearly thirty years old, was looking up. He was carrying his pregnant wife and a little girl of five or six years old. He was a type of person who had no choice but to fall to the rear of the tide of escape. Hearing Zhou Liming ask, he looked at the members of Zhou Liming's team, shook his head, and sighed, "Food? Do you know how many people are running away here?"
Zhou Liming shook his head, and the middle-aged man said with a wry smile: "There are at least hundreds of thousands, and it is impossible to provide food in Hemudu Town at all. And in an emergency, even if the government wants to mobilize food, how can it be transferred just by saying that it is so sudden?"
What the other party said was not wrong. The coastline of Asia was too long. Under the impact of ferocious beasts, the entire coastal coast had long been in chaos, and the government orders could not reach it at all.
Usually, some major highways are stuck in traffic at any time, not to mention that now it is time to escape. The coastal highways have almost become a sea of vehicles, blocked everywhere and are paralyzed. In this case, even if the government's materials are mobilized, they cannot be transported. Using air force transportation is a good way, but how can the entire coastal area be taken into account?
When Zhou Liming heard what the uncle said, he was also stunned and said, "There is no food, children, what should the children do?"
"Be hungry, I hope the situation will improve tomorrow." He shook his head helplessly and comforted his daughter and wife.
An Xiaowei took some leaves from the tree not far away and placed them on the ground for the children to sleep. The children who had been walking for a day had nothing to eat, but fell asleep. Dean Zhou sat next to him, looking at the red faces of the children, and sighed constantly.
If it were Zhou Liming before, he would definitely be helpless. However, the genes of the ferocious beasts had somewhat affected his personality and made him much more decisive. He said, "Dean, you are here to take care of me. I will see if I can get some food. Zheng Le and the others are hungry for a day, so I won't eat anything..."
After leaving President Zhou and An Xiaowei who told him to be careful, Zhou Liming returned to the country road and squeezed into the crowd that could hardly move.
When I received a prompt from the bridgehead, everyone thought that the town was giving away food. After being hungry for most of the day, they tried hard to squeeze forward. However, there were too many people, and the more they squeezed, the more chaotic it became, the more chaotic it stopped, and the screams were even more silenced than the vegetable market. Nowadays, people realize that they were too panic at the time and didn't even bring some food.
Zhou Liming is not as silly and introverted as before. He only knows that as the crowd advances, his two powerful arms constantly pull the people in front of him. Often, many people only feel that a force they have not resisted is coming, and they have been pulled out or pulled out of a gap.
"Damn him, who's going to do this?"
The hot people were already cursing, but Zhou Liming squeezed by. When they reacted, they could only curse. How could they catch up with Zhou Liming?
After spending half an hour, I finally squeezed into the streets of Hemudu Town. There were also crowds everywhere, and there were not many things left in the shops.
"Why don't you go robbing the bank?"
When Zhou Liming squeezed into a small grocery store, a man's sharp voice sounded, almost yelling, saying: "Are you mistaken? An egg yolk pie costs 500 yuan? You, he, have you never seen money in your life?" It suddenly rose by 5,000 times, and it was difficult for anyone to accept it. In addition, after a day of panic, everyone was full of anger.
The owner of the small grocery store is a fat man with a pockmarked face. He seemed to have been accustomed to this kind of roar. He snorted coldly from his nose, slapped the counter with a strong slap, and said, "Do you like to buy it? If you don't have money, get out of me. There are so many people who want to buy it. I haven't seen the things here. Are there so many left?"
"You...you..." The man was so angry that he couldn't speak, but his hesitation was directly squeezed away by a man holding a briefcase next to him. He quickly took out more than a dozen pieces of money from the briefcase that had not yet been removed, and said, "I bought them all, just look at it, just eat it."
The fat man quickly took the money placed on the stage, looked at the man just now provocatively, and said, "Learn a little, this is the charm, this is the successful person, and he is the one who does big things."
The person next to him who originally wanted to buy was still angry just now. The fat man made such disaster money. But the person who came out suddenly still shocked them. Seeing the money on the counter, there were at least more than 100,000 yuan, but it was thrown out without blinking. Moreover, the things he bought were just a large bag of egg yolk pie, a few bottles of eight-treasure porridge and a box of instant noodles.
After changing to snacks that usually don’t even need a hundred yuan, it has appreciated thousands of times, and many people can’t believe it. More people still lament that there are many rich people. I used to hear that some people ate 200,000 to 300,000 yuan in one meal, and spent more than one million yuan in a banquet. I didn’t believe it at that time, but now everyone who sees this scene believes it.
There were many rich people in Zhejiang B City, and more than tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands were nothing. Some smart people who thought it through suddenly rushed to the fat people and handed them over to the money.
“Give me 20 egg yolk pies!”
"I need two packs of instant noodles..."
"Come 10 ham sausages!"
“…”
What is money at this moment? No matter how late you have money, you can't buy it. You can only stay hungry. Tomorrow? So what will tomorrow be like? Who knows what tomorrow will look like? Look at the number of people here, and people are constantly joining the fleeing army from all directions. No one can know what it will be like in the future.
Moreover, for those who have thousands or millions of deposits in their accounts, this is just a small amount of money. You can make money again, but if you don’t have people, you will have nothing.
Maybe they will look stupid for this kind of crazy, and they will rush to get things that have increased thousands of times, but when they face hunger and starvation, can they eat as food?
Zhou Liming, who was standing next to witnessing all the rush to buy, just heard that an egg yolk pie costs 500 yuan, and in a moment it had already risen to 800 yuan, he was stunned.
This world is beginning to become crazy.
