Infinite Doomsday: I rely on space to stock up and bully the scum

Chapter 182: The Extreme Cold Doomsday: Come back soon, the village is giving out money!

Jiang Jiang's attention was not on the pork and household items that everyone bought. She looked at the twenty or so stoves of the same model as those in Grandma Wang's house and nodded with satisfaction.

At least in the early stages of a cold wave, everyone can keep warm at home with sufficient charcoal and no longer have to cook in the kitchen in the cold.

This time, we really came back with a full load.

Everyone who is immersed in the joy of consumption does not even realize that they have spent hundreds of dollars.

Nowadays, people only think that everything they buy is very affordable and they get a great bargain.

I'm afraid that when people wake up tomorrow, many will secretly regret why they spent so much money.

Just like Jiang Jiang, who goes on a spending spree during every shopping festival because of the bargains, and then feels regretful after regaining his senses.

But this is Jiang Jiang's purpose, to find ways to help the villagers make some money, and then find ways to let them buy some necessary things, so that when the extreme cold comes, they can at least survive for a while.

By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, it was already dark.

Fortunately, everyone bought a box of flashlights in bulk. After all, they are common household items. When calculated, a flashlight cost less than two yuan, which was much cheaper than if they bought them themselves.

It just so happens that I can use it right away after buying it.

After returning to the village, Qin Shan and his companions had not yet rested. They were leading others to continue repairing the roof.

"Captain Qin, why haven't you rested yet? It's so late, and you're still busy."

Zhang Qiang felt a little embarrassed. They had agreed to come back at six or seven o'clock at the latest, but it was already past nine o'clock in the evening and they had just arrived in the village.

Qin Shan came down from the ladder, looked at the people coming back with bags, and said with a smile:

"I bought a lot of things today."

"It's already November, and there are only two families' houses left. We also want to finish the repairs as soon as possible so that we can go home earlier."

Since the factory construction started in October, they haven't come down the mountain for almost half a month.

There are no weekends and they are busy every day. It is only because Jiang Jiang pays them generously that they would not have been able to hold on, otherwise.

"Okay, Captain Qin, tomorrow morning, I'll ask everyone in the village to help us finish the repairs as soon as possible so that you can go home and rest earlier."

"That's great, but you still have to be careful."

He was really scared by Zhao Tu’s injury before. If they were in a village with tough folks, they might not be able to walk out safely.

Fortunately, it was nothing serious. Qin Shan heard that he would be discharged from the hospital in two days, so he felt relieved.

Two days later, the entire Qingshan Village looked brand new.

The originally shaky mud houses have become regular and heavy, the scattered tiles have been neatly arranged, and most of the old houses that have been in disrepair have been reinforced. According to Qin Shan, it will be no problem to live in them for another ten years.

Jiang Jiang also readily paid Qin Shan and others their wages. Since they got along well during this period, she also reminded them to stock up more food at home, using the excuse that the international situation was unsafe and food prices were going to rise.

As for whether they listen or not, it’s up to them. She has no regrets.

The villagers also gave them a lot of dried vegetables, smoked bacon, and some tangerines.

After Qin Shan and others left, the one who missed them the most was Zhang Dachuan, who was guarding the store every day.

There was no other reason. Qin Shan and his companions were the most extravagant spenders in the village. They mostly bought barrels of instant noodles and bottled beer as midnight snacks.

Since they left, more expensive snacks and instant noodles have not been selling so well.

By providing daily supplies to the villagers, Zhang Dachuan estimated that he could save about 1,000 to 800 yuan a month from the convenience store. In the entire village, he was considered a high-income person.

Together with the money Zhang Heng, who works in a charcoal factory, earns from picking up branches and leaves, their family's monthly income can reach more than four thousand.

In the past, he wouldn't even dare to think about it.

What made him even happier was that someone was willing to act as a matchmaker for Zhang Heng.

Zhang Dachuan seemed to have seen himself holding his grandchildren and the happy scene of his family.

As the weather was getting colder, Zhang Dachuan wore a cotton coat on his upper body, and Zhang Heng put on a pair of pants on his amputated leg to facilitate movement, and then covered it with a small blanket, which could also be used as a quilt during the lunch break.

Years of life in a wheelchair have enabled him to sleep peacefully even in a wheelchair.

"The entire southwest region will be hit by a cold wave in the coming days. Please keep warm and bring an umbrella with you."

Jiang Jiang stayed in the room and looked out the window after hearing the weather forecast.

Thick clouds covered the sun, it was dark and humid, the sky seemed to become shorter, and the clouds in the distance were about to touch the mountains.

Everyone thought that this was just an ordinary cold wave and that things would get warmer after it passed.

But only Jiang Jiang knew that this cold wave heralded the arrival of extreme cold.

The only thing that bothered her was whether she needed to call back the people from Qingshan Village who had gone out to work.

The original owner's wish was to allow the villagers to safely survive the extreme cold.

So, are the people from Qingshan Village who are outside included in this category?

Jiang Jiang wasn't sure, but since it was something that happened easily, she didn't need to gamble and would just take whatever she could get back.

But this has to be done quickly.

If we wait until the cold wave arrives and the climate deteriorates, people who go out to work may not be able to return safely.

"Hello? Jiang Jiang, come over later, we have something to discuss."

Jiang Jiang received a call from Zhang Qiang and suddenly had an idea.

She can't be called back, but the branch secretary might be able to. If the branch secretary can't be called back, then the money definitely can.

Jiang Jiang changed his clothes and wore a pair of woolen slippers to the secretary's house.

Zhang Qiang looked at Jiang Jiang, who was wrapped tightly, and said with a smile:

"You youngsters are not as healthy as us older generations. Look at me. I only need to wear a thin coat. If I do some work, I will still be very hot."

Jiang Jiang agreed with this. Just because they were able to move the heavy objects from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain in one breath, Jiang Jiang felt inferior to them.

When she walked up the mountain road, she felt great torture on the soles of her feet.

But the aunt gave Zhang Qiang an unpleasant look.

"I don't know what's so great about this. Can your pig brain compare to Jiang Jiang's?"

After being told off, Zhang Qiang shrugged his shoulders, looking weak, pitiful and helpless.

Jiang Jiang has not forgotten the purpose of his visit.

"Uncle Zhang, what's the matter with you calling me here?"

When talking about serious matters, Zhang Qiang also became serious.

"I called you here this time because I wanted to ask you, didn't our village receive part of the rent? What should we do with this money? Should we keep it for the village to use together in the future or distribute it to everyone?"

Jiang Jiang pondered for a few seconds.

"Our contract states that the lease is for fifteen years. The first year's rent is 10,000 yuan, and it will increase by 8% every two years. The company may pay me part of the remaining rent in a few days."

"I heard that the company was successful in deducting taxes, so they transferred the money so quickly."

Zhang Qiang's eyes lit up. He also knew that a contract was a contract. Although it stated that the lease was for fifteen years, no one knew how long it could actually be leased for.

I felt at ease only after I received the rent.

"However, the company has a request."

"They said the money was for everyone in Qingshan Village. If any family wanted to receive the money, the whole family had to sign."

"This...can't you sign on behalf of someone else? Some people are working outside and it's not convenient for them to come back."

Zhang Qiang was a little hesitant.

Jiang Jiang shook his head.

"The company has very strict rules. They are a listed company and the requirements are very strict. I can't do anything about it."

"Okay, I'll go talk to each family."

The village distributed money!

Come back soon!
