Chapter 13 The Age of Extreme Heat Arrives
In the afternoon, the last of his purchases arrived.
A large truck drove by and stopped at the entrance of the community. The driver got out of the truck and made a phone call.
Not long after, Meng Ren ran downstairs wearing slippers.
"Meng Ren, what did you buy again?" The guard Wang was shocked. During this time, Meng Ren bought a lot of things every day, which really made him jealous.
Meng Ren smiled slightly: "It's just some small toys."
The driver came over and handed over a document: "Mr. Meng, the large-capacity lithium battery, air conditioner, refrigerator, generator and gasoline you ordered have arrived. Please sign."
Swish, brush, brush!
Meng Ren signed his name on it, and then the driver and several accompanying workers immediately opened the carriage and moved the goods down.
Fifty large-capacity batteries, one hundred barrels of gasoline, plus ten high-power air conditioners and refrigerators filled an entire carriage.
The workers moved these things into the underground warehouse with quick hands and feet. Many people in the community along the way looked at this scene with jealousy in their eyes.
"Meng Ren is actually buying things again. Is it true that he has too much money and no place to spend it?" someone couldn't help but ask.
The people next to him sneered: "I think that kid is completely crazy. Let him continue to waste money. I think when he spends all 10 million, he will have to go to the street to beg for food."
Meng Ren ignored everyone's comments and directed the workers to put things away.
After everyone left, Meng Ren immediately put these things into the portable farm.
“The last resource was put in place and everything worked perfectly.”
"Tomorrow is when the energy of the sun breaks out, and the end of the world...is finally about to begin!" Meng Ren squinted his eyes, and a ray of light flashed through his eyes.
…
The next day!
People in the community still went to work as usual, and the time soon came to noon. People were surprised to find that it was almost November, but the weather today seemed to be extremely hot.
In the sky, the red sun was burning crazily like a huge fireball. The scorching sunlight swayed down from the sky, making the entire city seem to be steaming.
The hot weather made the air distorted, and at noon, the temperature exceeded forty-five degrees.
"What's going on? Why is the weather so hot today?" someone complained.
The sun was scorching, and there were far fewer pedestrians on the streets. The high temperature, which reached more than 40 liters, was unbearable. No one could accept wandering outside in such weather.
At this time, Meng Ren was lying leisurely at home.
He had closed the doors and windows, and the cold air from the air conditioner blew out, keeping the temperature in the room at around 23 degrees.
He was lying on the sofa, wearing only a thin shirt, holding the iced watermelon he had just taken out of the refrigerator in his left hand, and the remote control in his right hand, turning on the TV.
"Dear viewers, according to the observations of the Meteorological Bureau, a wave of hot air will sweep across the country today. In the future, the temperature across the country will continue to rise. It is expected to reach a maximum of 50 degrees. Please be prepared to prevent heatstroke."
The reporter on the news was talking about the latest news. There must be air conditioning in the broadcast room, but there was still sweat on the reporter's forehead.
It seems that with such intense high temperatures, ordinary air conditioners can no longer cope with such hot conditions.
"Fifty degrees? You really underestimated the era of extreme heat!" Meng Ren squinted his eyes, lying on the sofa contentedly.
In the previous life, the highest temperature in Yunhai City had reached sixty degrees. In some extreme places, the temperature even exceeded eighty and approached one hundred. That was the real hell.
He glanced at the thermometer placed outside, which showed that the temperature at this moment had reached forty-eight degrees.
The fiery sun in the sky is like an angry giant, swaying its power wantonly, causing the temperature of the entire earth to continue to rise.
The Internet has already been complaining, netizens are complaining that the weather is too hot, and yesterday it was a cool autumn day with more than 20 degrees, and today it suddenly turned into a scorching summer, leaving everyone unprepared.
It’s not that I haven’t experienced high temperatures of forty degrees, but forty-eight degrees is really an exaggeration.
"The damn weather is already 48 degrees. Can I still go out if it keeps going like this?"
"It's too hot, no, I'm going to melt."
"Fuck, the outdoor temperature today is as high as forty-eight degrees. In the past, the temperature has never been so high even in summer."
Many people complained. Meng Ren looked at the information and shook his head.
This is just the beginning.
Next, the scorching high temperature will continue, and the daytime temperature will rise crazily. After a month, the daytime will become a real scorching purgatory. Only at night will it be slightly better, and people can barely go out for activities.
The Age of Extreme Heat has begun, and the entire world has been plunged into scorching heat.
Ordinary people think this is just an abnormal weather situation, but only those who really understand know that this is not temporary at all, but continuous.
Because of the explosion of solar energy, this disaster may last for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
The scorching heat outside is extremely hot, and there are not many people on the streets that used to be bustling. As a result, the streets are extremely empty, and even one-third of the shops are closed.
The weather is really too hot. Under such circumstances, no one wants to go out, and the store will naturally not make any money. It is better to close the door and go home to rest, so as not to continue to suffer in the store.
However, although it was a hell on earth outside, Meng Ren inside the house seemed quite comfortable.
He specially purchased a high-power air conditioner, which is enough to allow him to enjoy the cool temperature.
It's hot outside, but it's cool inside the house. I have to say that this feeling is very good, making people feel like they want to open champagne to celebrate.
"Cool!"
Meng Ren poured himself a bottle of iced Coke. The cold and refreshing feeling made him couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Toot toot!
At this time, the mobile phone suddenly rang. It turned out to be a message from the community owner group.
[Why is the weather outside so hot? There is no air conditioning in the house. I am almost dying of heat. 】
[Although I have air conditioning here, the temperature still cannot be lowered. 】
[Yes, why is the weather so damn hot today? 】
[Wait a minute, I remember Meng Ren bought several high-power air conditioners yesterday, right? @Meng Ren, can you lend us your air conditioner? 】
