Fishermen

Zhang Yi brought some food to Zhou Haimei.

When she saw the food, her eyes lit up. After thanking Zhang Yi with her last bit of reserve, she sat on the sofa and ate hungrily.

Zhang Yi waited until she finished eating and then said to her, "Are you clear about everything?"

Zhou Haimei nodded: "I know, you found a home for me, right?"

Women in their forties can already look at things fairly.

Maybe people of their age don't value so-called love that much.

When getting married and living a good life, what matters is a well-matched couple.

As long as the conditions are met, we can be together.

So when Yang Mi told her that she could find her a long-term meal ticket, she agreed without hesitation.

The only regret is that she originally thought that man was Zhang Yi!

With Yang Mi's support, Zhang Yi saved a lot of things.

Before setting off, he solemnly reminded the two of them that matters about safe houses and shelters must be kept secret!

Never tell outsiders in any way.

Otherwise, it is very likely that greedy people will come to snatch it.

"If I knew who leaked the information here, there would be no need for her to live."

When Zhang Yi said this, his tone was calm and indifferent, but his eyes had pure murderous intent.

Both women were extremely frightened and quickly said that they would not do anything stupid.

Zhang Yi nodded and said nothing more.

Both of these women are quite old, and they are not stupid people who work hard in the entertainment industry, and they would not do stupid things like that.

He gave these instructions just in case.

After explaining, he asked Yang Mi to go back to the room, and then took Zhou Haimei to prepare to return to Yuelu Community.

…

The cold wind is bleak, and the icy north wind carries ice and snow and blows across the surface of the Lujiang River.

Compared with when the snow disaster first came, the falling snow now has become much smaller.

After all, under extremely cold temperatures, there are not so many water molecules in the air that can condense into ice.

But the low temperature still persists, and the cold wind is as biting as ever.

Across the river from Yunque Manor is a small town called Xujia Town.

Across the river is the villa area where the richest people in Tianhai City live, and on the other side is a rural area on the outskirts of the city.

In the past, people in Xujia Town made a living by growing grain and vegetables.

Every household has built a greenhouse, grown food and vegetables, and then sold them to the urban area of Tianhai City.

Over the years, although they are not as wealthy as people in the urban area, they have lived a pretty good life.

After the extreme cold storm came, their lives became much more comfortable than those in the city.

Although they also have to face freezing temperatures, they are not short of food.

Moreover, in terms of physical fitness, they are even better than those in the city.

It's a little ironic that when a snowstorm comes, they live quite comfortably.

Noon is also the time when the temperature is the highest every day.

The temperature outside has risen to minus sixty degrees, and the wind and snow have subsided slightly.

Above the Lujiang River, a group of villagers from Xudong Village, who had wrapped themselves tightly, appeared.

They came to the ice with various tools in their hands.

In addition, five or six dogs were brought in, all of which were sled dogs such as Alaskans and huskies.

However, due to the low temperature, the dog's body was wrapped in cotton clothes.

People in Xudong Village cherish these dogs very much and treat them even more carefully than they treat themselves.

Because now in the south, they are the only ones that can still be used as livestock power.

But at this time, these sled dogs looked different from the silly ones we usually see.

Their eyes were full of ferocity, their fangs were exposed at the corners of their mouths, and their fur was stained with blood.

Led by a black-faced man in his fifties, a group of people came to the ice.

The black-faced man walked back and forth on the ice several times, sometimes lying down to look deeper into the ice.

After a while, he tapped somewhere with the stick in his hand.

"Right here, dig!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen people following behind him immediately came up, with several large ice-breaking equipment placed on the sledge behind.

Everyone lifted the equipment down, placed it in the designated location, and then tied it to the dog with a rope.

"Run, run!"

The dog owner grabbed the dogs tightly with a rope and shouted twice, and the dogs started running forward.

At the same time, it drives the ice breaker to cut through the ice.

With the power of dogs, the ice was broken very quickly, and it didn't take long to dig a huge round hole in the ice.

"Okay, okay! I found a fish!"

The black-faced man in the lead stretched out his hand to say hello, and the dog owner quickly grabbed the dog.

Everyone worked together to lift the ice breaker out. In the broken ice below, more than a dozen fish could be seen. They remain stuck in the ice in the same state as when they were frozen to death.

After freezing, the oxygen concentration in the river becomes low, and fish schools float upward to obtain oxygen.

Although they did not find a breathing hole in the end, they died near the ice.

This provides good food to the fishermen of this generation in Xujia Town.

As long as the ice is broken, frozen fish can be dug out from the ice.

This also became their main source of protein.

A group of people were busy as usual, led by Xu Dahai from Xudong Village, Xujia Town.

In the past, he was just a fisherman with an average status in the village.

But after the end of the world, he relied on his fishing skills to become the most important figure in Xudong Village.

For example, when he goes fishing now, he is only responsible for the designated place, and other people are responsible for the physical work.

Xu Manjin, a villager who raised dogs, came over and chatted with Xu Dahai.

"Second uncle, do you think it's so cold today, are all the people in the city freezing to death?"

Xu Dahai folded his hands and sneered disdainfully.

"They, city dwellers, don't even know how to grow crops on weekdays. They all rely on us farmers to support them."

"I'm afraid it's hard to even have a full meal now. I think he's almost dead a long time ago."

Xu Manjin nodded and said happily: "Fortunately, we are from rural areas. No matter how bad the weather is, if we have food in our house and some strength in our hands, we won't be afraid of not being able to survive!"

"It's this weather, it's too cold. When can we go there?"

Xu Manjin looked at the luxurious villa area across the river with a hint of proud contempt in his eyes, but at the same time he was also a little confused about the future.

It is true that they can survive, but this kind of life is obviously not what they want.

Xu Dahai frowned slightly and squinted his eyes slightly in the wind and snow.

"It's hard to say! But in this weather, we can survive. As long as we are willing to work, we are not afraid of starving to death!"

"When I was in Mohe, the temperature was not much higher than here. We were still swimming shirtless at that time!"

A few people were chatting away.

In the past, they always liked to get together to discuss international affairs. Their words would always talk about Europe and the United States, and their actions would belittle other countries as useless.

But now that we have no news sources and no mood to care about foreign affairs, we can only talk about how miserable the people in the city are.

Suddenly, there was the sound of an engine in the distance.

It came from the other side of the river.

Although the sound is not very loud, it is particularly obvious in this silent world of ice and snow.

Xu Manjin was stunned, "Why do I seem to hear the sound of a motorcycle?"

Xu Dahai pricked up his ears and listened carefully, then his face was filled with astonishment.

Can't be wrong!

The sound was very much like the fishing boat he used when fishing.

"Why are there still cars at this time? Aren't all the people in the city freezing to death?"

A group of people put down what they were doing and looked in the direction of the sound of the engine.
