Chapter 245: The Great Disaster - Hot Natural Disaster 2

In the blink of an eye, it's the beginning of July.

The temperature outside climbed to a dreadful 45C.

There has been no precipitation for more than a month, and since the world began to heat up, the water levels of the rivers and lakes in the Hope Territory have begun to gradually decline, and have now dropped by about one-third.

In fact, not only the water resources in the Hope Territory are decreasing, but the water resources in other areas are also continuously decreasing under the high temperature transpiration and the daily exposure of the sun.

Nowadays, parasols and large water bottles are necessary for people's daily travel.

The sunshade is to avoid the sun's exposure. Today's sun is extremely poisonous. If you expose your skin to the outside for about half a minute, you will immediately be exposed to layers of fine blisters. Not without.

The large kettle is to prevent yourself from running out of water.

It is too hot now, let alone outdoors, even sitting still indoors, you can sweat profusely. If you add a little salt water to yourself from time to time, your body will soon enter a state of dehydration.

Because of this, the salt in the Hope Territory has also caused a big rush.

In addition to their own lands needing salt, some survivor lands that have no salt production will come to order large sums of salt from them, and of course, they will also buy salt from other sources.

Just when placing an order for the Hope Territory, they will also purchase some additional things such as potions and equipment.

Seriously, buying salt from the Hope Territory is just a matter of convenience.

They just had it, and they needed it, so they bought it together.

Even though the temperature is so high now, Gu Mi has not given up letting people continue to carry out a new round of planting in the fields that have already been harvested for one round.

She naturally knew that in this kind of environment, if they planted again, the output in the field would not be too ideal, but it is not yet the worst time of the catastrophe, and they still have time and opportunities to survive this To prepare for the hot natural disaster, of course, do everything they can to do what they can.

Besides, the fact that the output is not ideal does not mean that there is no output.

Most of the fields in their territory are systematic buildings with various augmentation functions. With this blessing, there will still be some harvest in the harvest season.

And these 'some gains' may be able to feed some more people, so that they can survive this natural disaster.

In addition to food, Gu Mi also attaches great importance to water storage.

In fact, in hot weather, people are often not killed by heat, but by thirst. If there is enough water, even if the high temperature is unbearable, many people can still survive this disaster.

Like her past life.

At that time, many people died because of the drought caused by the high temperature, and finally lacked water and food, but very few people were really killed by the heat.

After all, all creatures in this world can be upgraded. Every upgrade is accompanied by an improvement in physical fitness. The improvement in physical fitness also means that its tolerance for extremely harsh environments will increase.

Just like Gu Mi, at her level, the high temperature can make her feel uncomfortable, but it will not endanger her life, even if she does not eat, drink or sleep from now on, she can last at least half a month. .

Vitality and endurance are much stronger than the average person.

"Fuqiang Territory: Lord Gu, do you have any extra salt you can sell to us?"

Suddenly seeing the message sent from the Fuqiang Territory, Gu Mi subconsciously checked their territory next to the salt lake. The remaining storage capacity of the warehouse, and then replied: "Yes, how much do you want?"

"The rich and powerful territory: 10 tons."

"Hope Territory: There aren't that many, we can only supply you 3 tons at most."

"Prosperity Territory: 8 tons, we have a lot of people, and there is a large demand for salt."

"Hope Territory: If there is a large demand for salt, you should follow They are on the island, and they are very rich in salt production."

"Fuqiang Territory: We have already ordered from them, but there is no teleportation formation between our territory and the Friendly Territory, and they are far apart from each other, and we need to transport goods. It will take a certain amount of time, so I still have to order a batch of salt emergencies with you first."

"I hope that the territory: emergency does not need that much, right? Up to 4 tons, no more really can't, our territory also has a very high demand for salt. It is big, and it is just such a salt lake that produces salt." " Fuqiang

Territory: 5 tons, we will cover the shipping fee."

"Hope Territory: a deal."

The equipment and weapons ordered were also delivered to them.

Gu Mi was naturally full of promise.

Counting the time, it is indeed approaching the delivery time that was promised before. Fortunately, their territory has no difficulty delaying whether it is for foreign trade orders or domestic sales orders. The current goods are fully prepared, and only the salt goods are also prepared. After footing, you can directly send these goods to the rich and powerful territories through the large teleportation array between the two territories.

Remarks: The shipping fee will be paid for the rich and powerful territories.

When it comes to this large teleportation array that has been constructed, it is natural to mention the people who were talking nonsense in the rich and powerful territory before.

Yes, there is not only one person who has a big mouth outside.

When several people were drinking together in the tavern in the rich and powerful territory, they accidentally missed their mouths, and then they were listened to by some conscientious people, and finally passed into Wang Jianshe's ears.

Maybe these people didn't expect that Wang Jianshe would go to Gu Mi directly because of this, making Gu Mi angry.

After investigating the whole story, Avery mercilessly punished those big-mouthed people.

They were directly deprived of the contract with the griffins, and were severely punished by military law. They were also returned to the soldier reserve to undergo a three-month repentance inspection. If they could not pass the three-month re-inspection period, they would have to leave the army.

It's not retirement, it's being kicked out.

I hope the people in the territory have not been driven out by the army.

At that time, it is conceivable what kind of days these people will face after they leave the army.

This incident was also criticized by the whole territory. It was the whole territory, not the entire army, to show an example, and it was also a warning to some of the territorial residents who were restless or had no door on their mouths.

Therefore, I hope that the territory will be very quiet for a while.

Avery didn't feel that the punishment he gave his subordinates was serious.

Because to a certain extent, the griffin belongs to the territory and belongs to the property of the lord.

The Lord graciously lent them griffins, and let them contract with them to become powerful griffin knights, and become the existence that everyone admires and admires. As a result, they failed the Lord's trust, and made trouble for the Lord..

This is absolutely unforgivable in Avery's view.

If this incident did not cause serious consequences, these people would have no chance to reform, and they would be deprived of their resident status and expelled from the Hope Territory.

Of course, they're not doing so well right now.

In order to keep their job transferred, after they were forced to cancel the contract with the griffins, they could only find other ordinary horsemen to make contracts in a hurry. From then on, the griffin knights became ordinary knights, lost important combat partners, and their strength greatly increased. Not to mention, you have to face punishment.

I heard that after being disposed of by military law, these people lay on the bed for a full week before going to the ground, not to mention that there are a series of repentance investigations waiting for them.

These people really used their personal experience to show the people of the entire Hope Territory what is called 'disaster comes out of the mouth' and 'drinking the wrong thing'.

Later, many people in their territory decided to stop drinking because of this, which is another funny example of people after dinner.

"Knock knock knock..." There

was a knock on the door, and Gu Mi immediately said, "Please come in."

With permission, the secretary pushed the door and entered, holding a poll in his hand.

She handed it to her boss and reported at the same time: "Lord Lord, according to the latest opinion poll, 99% of the people in the territory want you to build more igloos, just rely on the current 5,000 igloos. The igloo can no longer meet the needs of all the residents."

As the territory is getting bigger and bigger, it is easy for Gu Mi to carry out large-scale construction by himself. According to their needs, and then use this as a reference to carry out construction, Gu Mi will regularly conduct a public opinion survey in the territory.

In the end, the building that is most desired by the residents in the polls will be adopted and added to the next major construction, or simply supplemented on the same day.

For example now.

After knowing that the number of igloos could not meet the needs of the residents, Gu Mi directly opened the system map and added 5,000 igloos directly.

She also only plans to build so many igloos.

After all, new energy air conditioners and new energy fans developed by their Territorial Research Institute, new home appliances that can bring coolness to everyone in hot weather have been launched.

Although there is not much supply at present, the popularity is gradually spreading.

When every household in the territory uses air-conditioning fans, the demand for igloos will naturally decrease, so building too many igloos at this time will be a waste in the future.

Even if Gu Mi can dismantle it and recycle it into resources, the system will also take away part of the reward in the middle, and this part is lost.

No matter how rich he is, Gu Mi, who manages such a large territory, has long learned to plan carefully.

She does not allow all unnecessary waste.

There were so many new igloos in the territory all of a sudden, and it was naturally noticed by the territorial residents who were already hot.

They knew that the opinions they submitted were accepted by the lord, and they cheered and went straight to the igloo, shouting long live the lord.

This joyous scene, I don't know, I thought it was New Year's Day.

Indeed, after there are so many new igloos, everyone who spends money to buy tickets to enter and feel the rare coolness only thinks that this time is happier than the Chinese New Year.

Many people now prefer to lay on the floor outside the igloo door rather than go back to their steamer-like home to sleep.

At least I don't need money outside the door, and I can occasionally feel a little bit of cool air leaking from the crack of the door. How comfortable is it?

Of course this is not allowed.

It is not the territory that does not allow it, but the environment that does not allow it.

Their territory is located in the big forest, there is not much, there are definitely a lot of mosquitoes, and many of them are very poisonous. If they are bitten, they can swell up a steamed bun.

If there is no building protection, or do anti-mosquito work in advance, just take a nap outside, and you will wake up the next day with a big pig head full of bags.

Don't think this is funny.

If this situation is more serious, it can be fatal!
