    As time goes by, not only are prices rising slowly, but the population migration plan to the south is also being completed.

    The number of people dying from freezing is gradually approaching zero.

    Although the population of many southern cities suddenly increased by 10% or 20% due to this, it caused a certain amount of pressure.

    But overall it¡¯s actually pretty good.

    After all, due to the cold wave, there are not many areas in the north where the temperature is lower than 50 or 60 degrees. Only some areas in the north that are already colder will have the temperature drop that low. In other places, the temperature will drop to 30 or 40 degrees. In some places, the temperature drops to 30 or 40 degrees.  Underfloor heating is generally tolerable, so they don't need to move south.

    ??The most is that the heating bill has increased a lot.

    The lower the temperature, the more energy is consumed for heating, and the increase in heating bills is reasonable.

    So in the end, overall, the number of people who really need to migrate to the south is probably less than 80 million. The number seems to be large, but when they are dispersed to major cities, each city will not be allocated much.

    In addition, those northerners who have temporarily migrated to the south still mainly live in the form of central heating. Thousands of people live together in major central heating places, so major cities can still afford it. At most, there is some shortage of supplies.

    But there is nothing we can do about it.

    ?????????????????????????? If people were not moved in, those cities were already experiencing material shortages due to various reasons such as the cold wave. Now that more people have moved in, the situation has naturally become worse.

    Fortunately, the main shortages are vegetables and meat.

    There is still no shortage of staple food.

    Therefore, the so-called shortage of supplies actually means that food is not as good or as abundant as in the past.

    No matter what

    That¡¯s much happier than it was a few decades ago.

    Some people feel dissatisfied just because they are used to living a good life and it is difficult to switch from luxury to frugality.

    Just pick up a few ordinary people from ancient times, they don¡¯t have to be victims of disasters, just ordinary people, and throw them into today¡¯s central heating places. I guarantee that no one will feel dissatisfied, and they will even feel very happy, because there are at least three times a day.  Eat whatever you want with rice or noodles.

    As long as it¡¯s not wasted.

    These are definitely many ancient people.

    It¡¯s a treat that comes only a few times a year.

    If you meet someone who is frugal, you may not have eaten it.

    I have never eaten rice without any miscellaneous grains and snow-white, extremely fine fine-grain noodles.

    So, people are still used to it.

    But no matter what, at least the overall domestic situation has stabilized, new farms and planting bases are being built one after another, and some agricultural and industrial production that were hit hard by the sudden arrival of the cold wave have begun to slowly recover.

    Everything seems to be developing in a good direction.

    Time flies and it¡¯s New Year¡¯s Eve.

    But this year is different from previous years. There are quite a few families where someone has died. Some are quite miserable, and there may only be a few families left.

    Or nearly half of a community has been visited.

    This is no joke.

    Some communities are elderly communities. Most of the communities are occupied by the elderly. The children may be working hard in big cities or in other places. Extreme cold weather is inherently unfriendly to people with poor physical fitness, so such communities  Is it possible to reduce the household registration by half?

    Therefore, it is really difficult for everyone to squeeze out laughter during the Spring Festival this year. Even because of the weather, many people working outside did not go home.

    ??We can only make it through this special Spring Festival through video or phone calls.

    Then continue your normal life the next day.

    Of course, not all families are like this. On the first and second day of junior high school, there are still people visiting relatives everywhere, but the number is much smaller than in previous years. Liu Jianguo¡¯s family is one of them.  I usually visit my parents on the first day of junior high school, then go to my father-in-law and mother-in-law's house for lunch, and then come back after dinner.

    This time because Qiao Mu¡¯s wife passed away.

    It was really inappropriate to leave Qiao Mu at home alone, so they simply took Qiao Mu with them to Su Wenjuan's eldest brother's house.

    Since Su Wenjuan¡¯s father passed away.

    Her mother lives with her eldest brother.

    So when their family reunited, of course it was at her eldest brother's house. Qiao Mu went over. Although their family gathering was a little different from previous years, everyone was understanding, so the meal was quite friendly and finished.  Later, Su Wenjuan's younger brother did not invite her as much as he did in previous years.?Liu Jianguo stayed to play cards for a few hours before going back.

    This year is different from previous years. If it is really too late, the car will not be easy to start. For everyone's safety, they naturally dare not keep guests.

    After finishing the meal on the first day of the new year and returning home, Liu Jianguo and his family stopped visiting other relatives.

    The most I can do is wish you a happy New Year via video.

    Then their family continued to have cat winter.

    This cat arrives in April.

    Since the end of the New Year, the temperature here has entered a state of slowly rising, but the rate of increase is very slow. It may only increase by one or two degrees a week. It was not until the end of March, after the vernal equinox, that the temperature rose slightly faster.

    But even so, it is only after Guyu, in mid-April, that the daily minimum temperature returns to above zero and no longer freezes.

    It was also until this time.

    Liu Jianguo and his wife just wanted to find jobs.

    The two of them were still a little embarrassed to have their son and mother at home for four or five months, so as soon as the temperature returned, of course they wanted to find a job to make money, and at the same time, they also made preparations for the cold wave that might come again in half a year.

    But people of their age.

    It is easy to leave a job, but it is difficult to find another job because most companies do not recruit middle-aged people.

    In terms of the overall situation, most companies only recruit employees who are over 18 years old and under 40 years old. For some companies, such as some companies recruiting programmers, the conditions may be even stricter, such as recruiting three-year-old employees.  Under fifteen years old.

    Liu Jianguo is forty-eight years old this year. Su Wenjuan is two years older than him. She is fifty this year and will have her fiftieth birthday in a few months. For ordinary people of this age, without any particularly impressive achievements, it is definitely difficult to find a job.  More difficult.

    It means sweeping the streets and checking toilets.

    That might not be able to compete with others.

    So after half a month of struggling, Liu Jianguo and Su Wenjuan came back frustrated.

    It¡¯s not that people don¡¯t want them.

    It¡¯s just that they think their wages are low.

    How can you find a job like this?

    The way Qiao Mu looked at them, coupled with worries about the future, finally made up his mind, and after dinner that night when the couple came back from being lost again, he made a suggestion:

    "Jianguo, Wenjuan, I have been watching how you are looking for jobs these days, and I have also checked some information online. Considering your current ages and abilities, it is really difficult to find a job that satisfies you.  too difficult.

    So, here is a suggestion.

    Let¡¯s move to the country.

    ¡°We move to the countryside, rent a piece of land, and find a way to build a greenhouse. Then you will be responsible for farming, raising chickens and ducks, etc. As long as there are no problems with the power supply, we can still make money in the winter.  "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
