Natural Disaster Apocalypse

Chapter 21:



The spread of mycelial virus has now reached a stable period. Studies have found that the content of toxic mycelium in smog is not high, because the viability of this toxic mycelium is relatively low, and it can only attach to the formation of fog The inhalable particles in the smog are on the inhalable particles, so the heavier the fog, the higher the amount of toxic mycelia attached, but as long as the protection is done properly, the inhalable particles in the smog can be blocked, and the poisonous mycelia can be prevented from entering the human body.

After repeated experiments, it can now be confirmed that the existing A-level protective clothing on the market can well block the invasion of poisonous mycelia. The activity can be almost completely eliminated, and the protective clothing can be used repeatedly after sterilization. That is to say, if it weren't for the large amount of smog that is ubiquitous and unable to dissipate for unknown reasons, it would be impossible for such a low-activity virus to cause such a large epidemic. But it is also because of the weird smog sweeping the world that this low activity virus has become the most ferocious killer.

Although there is no specific medicine to treat the poisonous mycelium, it is impossible for people to never go out because of the poisonous mycelium permeating everywhere. Therefore, as some special types of work, under the arrangement of the government, they wear tight protective clothing and rework one by one. And really as long as the airtightness of the protective clothing is ensured and even infection can be prevented, more and more people are going out of the house.

Human beings are extremely adaptable. After experiencing countless deaths, everyone has gradually found the balance of survival in this smog shrouded in death. When Mu Nan saw the outside from the window of their balcony, it was still empty before. On the streets, more and more vehicles are passing by every day.

There are some official press releases on the Internet, which predict that people’s lives may have to coexist with this poisonous smog in the future, and that protective clothing will become the only outdoor clothing that everyone can wear in the future, and there are even some specialized protective clothing The factory began to receive a large number of orders. In the past, Mu Nan's circle of friends was full of masks and group purchases, but now they are more likely to buy protective clothing and sell protective clothing at high prices.

Before the epidemic, those protective suits were tens or hundreds of dollars cheap, and even biochemical-grade ones could be bought for hundreds of expensive ones. Now even the most common one-piece protective suits are sold for tens of thousands, not to mention those equipped with gas masks. The price of protective clothing even went up to one or two hundred thousand. Compared with the safety of life, although not everyone can have this little money, for some people, it is nothing.

It was also at this time that some people felt that protective clothing would be the only hope for people to get out of the house, so they began to stock up in large quantities.

Some far-sighted people have already started hoarding protective clothing when the smog started and Qianjin was begging to buy masks. Now, after the predictions of some experts, and there are examples of ordinary people wearing protective clothing starting work in various provinces and cities, those who started Merchants who had hoarded protective clothing immediately began to sell the accumulated protective clothing at high prices. The cost of protective clothing that may be less than one hundred yuan was directly sold for tens of thousands of yuan.

Even if the country has monitored the market and lowered prices, but it has been closed for a long time, under the suspension of work and production, too many bankrupts and too many debtors, when there is no way to get a piece of protective clothing, those who are eager to take advantage of others can’t go out. Those who want to make a lot of money will naturally find various private purchase channels, so even if the government is trying to control it, there is still no way to stop private transactions.

Mu Nan was leaning on the bed and brushing his phone with a sweet air, while Qin Huai poured the cake batter that Mu Nan had just distributed into the mold, smelling the sweet fragrance in the air, looking at the high price of other people's transactions, Mu Nan sighed, "Brother, how much can you sell for the ugly protective clothing with a gas mask that I bought now?"

The kind of biochemical grade, with two anti-virus air holes on the mask, high temperature resistance and heat insulation, was very expensive when I bought it, five or six thousand, and he bought four sets at the time, in order to prepare for emergencies in the future. Looking at it now When someone asked for this kind of advanced protection at a high price, if Qin Huai still had a lot of funds in his hand that had not been spent, he would have been tempted to sell some of them to make some money.

In addition to the thick one, Mu Nan also bought another kind of thinner one, like medical pure white, which is also completely integrated with head and feet. That kind is cheaper, more than 300 pieces, he I bought 20 pieces. Although I knew that the smog would suddenly disappear overnight, but he did not live long in the last days. Who knows if there will be another virus after he dies, so I prepared more A few pieces, just this kind of thin ones, have now been sold to tens of thousands. After all, this kind can be used repeatedly and has a relatively high protection factor. If you can go out at this time, even if you can earn some errand money, or Go buy some goods and sell them, and it won't be long before you can get your money back.

Of course, Qin Huai knew that Mu Nan couldn't really sell the protective clothing he had in stock. Now that he sold it for money, he might not be able to use money or other things to exchange for this kind of protective clothing in the future, so he responded casually: " Someone must have bought one for 200,000 yuan. Although this is ugly, it is reassuring. When you walk on the street wearing this, you don’t have to worry about being infected by the virus.”

Mu Nan swiped his mobile phone and saw celebrities wearing protective clothing going out of the street with emotion: "Look at these celebrities, they have all started to come out for business, and it is not easy." Now you can still see some celebrities, and after a while, After the network collapsed with the earthquake, Mu Nan was never seen again.

Qin Huai said with a smile: "There is nothing easy in any industry. They have a good face and pay more than ordinary people. Now these celebrities each have their own industries, whether they are catering or trendy brands. They have been closed for a few months. Who knows how much debt is behind the scenery."

Seeing people complaining about the rent, pavements and even parking fees on the Internet, Mu Nan remembered that Qin Huai drove back at the beginning, but unfortunately there was no gas on the road. At that time, the whole country was closed and there was no place to refuel. Riding a bicycle, he quickly put down his phone and sat up and asked, "Brother, where did you park your car?"

Qin Huai: "I just found a roadside parking lot in a residential area and parked there. What's wrong?"

Mu Nan asked: "Do you still want that car? Don't you want it? What kind of car did you buy? Is it expensive?"

Qin Huai smiled: "It's not expensive, an SUV worth over 100,000 yuan, if I drive back from the place where I parked, and the road is clear, it may take more than ten hours. At that time, we will go to City B to collect things first. If we want to get the car , get off there halfway, and then drive back. If you don’t want to waste time, then don’t. The car has not been modified, and the chassis is not too high. Earthquake, this car is useless."

Mu Nan: "Otherwise, I'd better drive it back. I just don't know if I can find an opportunity to take it into the space. In case I need to use the car in the future, it's better to have it than nothing."

And more than 100,000 yuan is also money, so it's a pity to lose it like this.

For such a trivial matter, Qin Huai naturally followed Mu Nan's way: "Then go and drive back at that time, and you can buy more things along the way depending on the situation, try to spend as much money as possible, so as not to hurt your heart."

Mu Nan snorted, it was all hard-earned money, if it turned into a bunch of useless bank figures, it would be a heartache, so spend it as much as you can. Mu Nan wrote down the matter in his notebook, afraid that he would forget later: "Then do we still need to buy oil? I bought some diesel and kerosene, but the price of oil was so high that I didn't buy much. I prepared The generator is diesel, the heater is kerosene, and there is electricity. I have prepared everything I can think of, but not so much. I also bought some solar panels, but I don’t know when the power is cut off here. After we put the solar panels out, the hot solar energy can't drive the air conditioner at home."

It is a pity that they do not live on the top floor, nor do they live in a small detached house. This kind of middle floor may not be easy to install solar energy. If there is a small single-family house like in the countryside, and the roof is covered with solar panels, then there is no need to worry about power outages at home. It's a pity that he was reborn for three months, so there was too little time for him, and their family didn't have any relatives in the village. If they really want to live in the village, whether they accept it or not is one thing. It depends on how well prepared they are. Maybe it will become a target.

These things are not easy to buy, and the price is not cheap. It is not easy for Mu Nan to prepare so much. Qin Huai watched him record the things to be done in the small book item by item, and said with a smile : "It's very good. I'll prepare the rest. I can prepare as much as I can. I'll ask someone to buy as much oil as possible. If I still have money in my hand, I'll buy some scattered along the way on the way back." .”

Mu Nan was a little curious: "Brother, who do you ask to help you buy things? There are a lot of things you buy, but if they disappear all at once, will it arouse suspicion?"

Since he had a space, he was very careful about collecting things, for fear that his negligence would reveal his secrets. Even after he was reborn, he bought things everywhere, but because he didn't have much money, he didn't buy much. , Turning around, renting a truck to pretend to be in and out of the effort, just like this, he was worried that he didn't worry about being found abnormal.

Qin Huai smiled at him comfortingly: "Don't worry, it's a two-for-one deal. I rented the warehouse for half a year. When the door is locked, no one will know if the things inside are still there. After the earthquake, then Don't worry any more."

Hearing what Qin Huai said, Mu Nan felt relieved, but his worry was a little superfluous. Compared to himself, Qin Huai might be more nervous about the exposure of his space, and he would only be more careful than him in doing things.
