the next day.

Store No. 2 in the commercial area, tortillas are sold as usual, and there is no purchase restriction.

There are still many people here to buy corn cakes. They have taken out dozens or even hundreds of points to buy these corn cakes.

Day 3.

The store No. 2 opened normally and was not affected by the recent rush to buy corn cakes.

In order to quickly give everyone the corn cakes, many new clerks have been transferred to the store to ensure the quality of service and the speed of service.

The customers who bought corn cakes at the entrance of the store whispered to discuss this situation.

"No, yesterday I saw someone buy nearly 300 tortillas in one go. Why is it not limited to the quantity now? To be on the safe side, I spent half of the points to stock up on corn cakes."

"It's only three hundred. I saw someone buy 1,200 corn cakes the day before yesterday. It seems that the rumors are fake. Look, they don't have any raw materials for food at all."

"I have bought it for a week in a row, and now I have less than ten points left. I have stocked up hundreds of tortillas. What's wrong with this?"

"No, you have bought so many, so come and buy them?"

"I'll queue up and join in the fun."

"You are so idle. I don't plan to buy it today. I can't finish all the ones I bought a few days ago, and I don't have the right place to put them in the room. I always worry about being stolen. It's troublesome to carry them with you."

"Who said no, it's not easy to store. It's not easy to store in the room. It won't last long. You don't have to worry about going outside, but the fuck I can't stay outdoors all the time."

For them, although it is safe to carry food with them, carrying a lot of food is also a troublesome thing.

I carry a package all day long and carry it with me when I sleep and go to the bathroom.

Even when I go out to sweep the snow, I carry it on my back, which becomes a burden.

And watching others eat hot corn cakes that have just been baked every day. The corn cakes that have just been baked are relatively soft, and will become harder after being left cold, and the longer it takes, the harder it will become.

If it is left for half a month, it will be as hard as a stone. If it is not heated, it will be knocked to the teeth.

Someone had eaten corn cakes that had been stored for more than two months before, and they were eaten as cold as they were dry, and the hardness of a front teeth broke down.

Another day passed.

Zhu Yu and the leader of their team came to the No. 2 store to check the situation.

When their leader saw that the No. 2 store was still serving corn cakes steadily, his face turned astonishing.

Some people in the queue were still talking about food shortages in the oil city.

"Fortunately I didn't buy that much, hahaha, Lao Liu, next door, bought all his points for tortillas. Now he can't pay the rent, heating fees, and water fees. He can only sell the tortillas to others at a low price to deduct other expenses."

"Who said no, the tortilla that just came out is different from the tortilla that had been put on for a few days. I don't want to bite the hard pancake."

"It is said that someone bought 1,200 tortillas a while ago. I wonder if I regret it now."

"What if he doesn't matter, since they buy so much, they probably won't be able to finish it in a while."

...........

Hearing these people's comments, the leader's expression became even more ugly.

He is the kind of resentment among these people.

All the points in the number card were bought tortillas, and now there is only about one point left in the number card.

Their team has more than 20 people, and everyone needs 0.2 points per day for heating. The points they have in hand are only enough for 5 days.

If they don't have a job, they can only exchange points with other survivors for selling tortillas at low prices.

In the residential area of ​​the trading market, you do not pay the accommodation fee and will also provide you with the last seven-day limit period, allowing you to find ways to get points within seven days.

But if you don’t pay the heating fee, just kick you out and let you live in a slum without heating.

In the slums, most of the people here are people living at the bottom of the trading market.

However, generally speaking, as long as you have hands and feet, a little hardworking, and have a little saving awareness, you will not be able to afford 0.01 rent or 0.01 heating fee for a day.

"Brother, what should I do if the corn cakes I bought?" Zhu Yu looked at the leader.

The leader had a gloomy face and spoke:

"What else can I do? Let's take a chew on it in the next month or two."

They have something to do in the trading market, and the team has participated in the snow removal work, so it did not cause them much problem.

The only thing is that in the next month, they will no longer be able to eat fresh and hot tortillas.

.........

.........

Oil City.

The cold wind is blowing.

At the entrance of the oil production well.

"Minister, the temperature is too low at present, so we can only suspend the mining of oil in full." said Ling Feng, the head of the oil well.

Uncle San looked at the retreating workers and nodded:

"Well, I understand. Thank you for your hard work during this period. Let's take your brothers down and have a good rest."

"Minister, then we'll leave."

"Um."

Ling Feng waved to the oil well workers behind and left in front of Uncle San.

Every worker saw the third uncle standing at the door and bowed to say hello.

They all looked dirty and dirty with black crude oil and dust on their faces and hands.

Oil well workers have a harsh working environment and work underground all year round.

Moreover, they made great contributions to the development of the oil city and even the Dazhangshu Base.

Therefore, they earn a high daily contribution points.

So far, these oil production workers have reached the lowest level of level 3 personnel and enjoy high benefits.

This is the case with the Dazhangshu Base, and it will not treat those who have made great contributions unfairly.

After they left, Uncle San looked at the thermometer hanging by the oil well gate, showing that the outdoor temperature has reached minus 71 degrees Celsius.

In such extremely cold weather, it is not easy for them to mine oil until now.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The mining of oil in extreme cold weather will face problems such as equipment freezing, oil well blockage, operation difficulties, etc.

In terms of operation difficulties, extremely cold weather will cause frostbite of the operator's hands and affect operation efficiency.

Before the end of the world, oil well companies often exploit oil in some temperatures of minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius. They would use antifreeze and other measures to find ways to exploit oil.

Even in the Arctic, when the temperature reaches minus 50 degrees Celsius, oil companies can find ways to mine.

When oil companies conduct oil extraction in these areas, they will use special antifreeze, insulation materials and insulation equipment.

only......

The temperature is really too low now, and it is extremely cold at minus 71 degrees Celsius, and the operation is extremely complicated and difficult.

Moreover, the equipment often freezes quickly in just a few seconds, and there is no way to operate it. Oil well mining in the oil city can only be suspended.

Uncle San wore a hat, looked at the snowflakes falling from the sky, shook his head, and walked towards the cafeteria.

...........

Big camphor tree base.

Inner city meteorological monitoring station.

Two people stood on the top of the towering monitoring site.

He held the telescope and looked nervously at the forest in the distance, frowned.

The monitoring station is located in front of the inner city wall, which is the area of ​​the second outer city.

The height of the monitoring station reached 95 meters, and it was even nearly 20 meters higher than the inner city wall.

It is the tallest building in the Dazhangshu Base except for the sentry tower on the top of the inner city mountain.

The monitoring station is connected to the inner city wall, and there is a sentry tower below.

Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo woo-

The wind was roaring like a ghost and screaming.

The leaves on the anemometer are blown and rotate continuously.

Deng Wen saw the distant sky through the telescope, and the snowflakes swept across the sky, and suddenly whirled and flew.

The situation is not good.

He quickly shouted to someone next to him: "Xiao Gao, what level of wind is shown on the anemometer?"

Xiao Gao supported the railing and walked to the anemometer with difficulty and took a look.
