The continuous darkness has made people all over the world panic, and various doomsday legends are even more rampant. As soon as you open the web page, you can see a variety of "doomsday conjectures," including statements from various experts and scholars, and even suggestions for people to hoard supplies.
However, with the increasing number of violent incidents, many shops dare not open their doors at all and have all closed. Only some supermarkets designated by the government are still operating as usual. Of course the government did this to maintain stability, but after all, in extraordinary times, in order to prevent panicked citizens from panic buying, the government introduced purchase restrictions.
However, the so-called purchase restriction order is only effective for ordinary people. As long as it is relevant, there is always a way to get more supplies.
For example, the Tang family.
Tang Group is mainly engaged in the hotel and catering business. Tang Jingtian had some business acumen and directly managed Tang Group into a famous brand. Later, Tang Group got involved in the food industry, setting up subsidiaries and building several large-scale food companies. processing plant.
The Tang family has such a unique advantage, so there is no need to worry about materials. Not only that, Tang Jingtian also took this opportunity to make many connections using the food in his hands.
It's five o'clock in the afternoon on the seventh day of darkness.
Tang Jingtian put down the phone in his hand and pinched his brows tiredly. People outside have been in panic these past few days, and almost everyone is busy saving food. Although he doesn't have to go out in person, he has a lot of things to do every day, and he can't answer the phone alone.
This is something that can't be helped. Those who can hit him are not ordinary people, and they can't afford to offend him. When the other party asked for food, he couldn't refuse, so he could only find ways to raise supplies.
Not only did he raise money for others, he also had to prepare it for himself. Even if the Tang family had a food processing factory, this would not be easy.
You know, the factory has a monthly processing quantity quota, which must be determined based on sales volume. Food, no more than other things, has a shelf life limit. Once too much is processed and cannot be sold, the factory will lose money!
Tang's business is good. In order to catch up with the work, the factory works in three shifts, and even New Year's Day is a day off. But since the darkness has enveloped and "doomsday prophecies" have become popular, the workers in the factory have begun to panic.
It was okay at first. As long as they were paid overtime and threatened with dismissal for absenteeism, the workers compromised. But as violence increases, many workers would rather be fired than come to work.
Fortunately, the factory has a dormitory building for employees, so the workers living in the building don't have so many worries and are willing to go to work as usual. It's just that this group of workers only accounts for half of all workers. The remaining half of the workers are local and do not live in the factory at all.
With fewer people, the factory's daily output will also be reduced, but it still receives large orders every day. Tang Jingtian's hair almost turned gray because of this matter.
It’s not that he is greedy for money, it’s just that those people simply can’t refuse!
Chu Jia has been accompanying him recently and often hears him negotiating with others. She knows the situation of Tang syndrome very well. At this moment, she happened to come in with a cup of ginseng tea. Seeing that Tang Jingtian looked tired, she put down the teacup, walked virtuously behind Tang Jingtian, stretched out her well-maintained slender fingers to massage his temples.
"What's wrong? Are you in trouble again?" Chu Jia's voice was gentle, and she was good at observing words and expressions. She could talk about Tang Jingtian's heart every time she opened her mouth, so that she had occupied the position of the first person in Tang Jingtian's heart for many years. Although Tang Jingtian often flirted with women outside, Chu Jia was still the one he liked the most in his heart.
Chu Jia lowered her eyes and carefully looked at Tang Jingtian's face. Seeing that he didn't say anything, she continued: "If you look at it, although the recent situation is weird, it would be ridiculous to say it's the end of the world. But it's ridiculous. It’s just a group of people who are worried about the world being in chaos and just taking the opportunity to spread rumors, but some people actually believe it.”
"Do you really think so?" Tang Jingtian finally spoke, but his tone was a little suspicious. He actually thought so too, but he was always a little uneasy, fearing that there might be some end of the world.
He had finally become a master, his career was booming, and he was used to living a life of pampering, but he didn't want the end of the world to happen and his hard work to be ruined.
Chu Jia was equally uneasy, but since she could see Tang Jingtian's thoughts, how could she dare to reveal her uneasiness? What's more, there was nothing unusual except darkness recently, so she felt a little lucky.
"I think it won't take long for things to return to normal. You also know, Jingtian, that my hunch is the most accurate." Chu Jia said, seeing that Tang Jingtian's brows were indeed relaxed and his mood was getting better, so he knew that what he just said was right. But she quickly pretended to be worried and said, "I just don't know what's going on with that girl A'ke. It's so dangerous for her to be a girl outside. The world is not peaceful recently, and people are making trouble everywhere. Don't let anything happen to her." That’s good.”
"Don't mention her to me!" When Tang Jingtian heard this, his face became extremely ugly. He punched Huang Huali's desk and said through gritted teeth, "I don't have an unfilial daughter like her! She is the most Please don’t show up again, otherwise I won’t be able to spare her!”
Chu Jia curled up her lips with satisfaction, but what she said was: "Jingtian, please stop saying angry words, be careful of being angry and damaging your health."
She wished that Lan Ke had died outside, but when she thought of the shares that Lan Ke had sold, Chu Jia felt extremely unwilling! It's too cheap for Lan Ke to die like this!
It's a pity that Lan Ke changed his mobile phone number, even sold his house, and didn't know where he hid. Otherwise, she could take advantage of this opportunity to do something.
Chu Jia shook her head, feeling regretful.
That night, some people went to bed early, while others were so anxious that they didn't dare to close their eyes. They could only numb themselves through various movies, TV dramas and games.
At around 4 o'clock in the morning, it started to rain. At this time, many people were already asleep and had no idea that it was raining outside, let alone that the falling rain was black, like ink.
Lan Ke quietly went out wearing a raincoat and rain boots, holding an umbrella, and came to the rooftop alone. She was cautious and opened her umbrella before the black rain fell.
When the black rain fell in heavy drops, Lan Ke suddenly took out a small white jade bottle, recited a mantra and threw it into the air.
The black rain falls so hard that when it falls on the ground, it will splash water as big as the mouth of a bowl. However, as the white jade bottle was thrown out, a misty green light appeared from the mouth of the bottle, absorbing all the black rain!
Lan Ke was immediately surprised. She borrowed this white jade bottle from [Ruthless Swordsman]. It was the first time she used it. She had no idea it could be so powerful!
What amazed her even more was that [Ruthless Swordsman] lent her a total of 10 such jade bottles! Of course it wasn't for nothing, it was a deal she mustered up the courage to negotiate with the [Ruthless Swordsman].
Seeing all the black rain around him being absorbed by the white jade bottle without even a drop falling, Lan Ke remembered what the [Ruthless Swordsman] had said.
