In the ice age apocalypse, I hoarded ten billion worth of supplies

Chapter 14: Extreme Low Temperature, I Watch the Outside World with a Smile



The Ice Age had begun.

In Tianhai City in the south, heavy snow like goose feathers was falling. There were heated discussions on the Internet. Some people were complaining, while others were feeling lucky.

However, none of them knew that this heavy snowfall and the sharp drop in temperature were not temporary but would continue and intensify.

Ultimately, it would bring a disaster that no one could bear.

At this time, Zhang Yi was lying on the sofa at home, comfortably enjoying the temperature of over 20 degrees Celsius in the safe house while tasting the chilled Budweiser beer, feeling extremely cozy.

Suddenly, Zhang Yi's mobile phone rang.

He picked it up and took a look. It turned out that people in his mobile chat groups were chatting.

Among them were his former classmate groups, hobby groups, and the owners' group of the community.

"Oh my God! Why did it suddenly snow so heavily? The weather forecast didn't say anything about it!"

"I was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night and quickly got up to turn on the air conditioner."

"Don't mention it. The heating effect of our crappy air conditioner is so poor. It's been a while, and it's getting colder and colder."

"I don't know how long this cold weather will last. I haven't bought my winter clothes yet!"

Everyone was talking and expressing their feelings in a hubbub.

However, Zhang Yi could sense that most people didn't take the sudden drop in temperature seriously. Instead, they were somewhat surprised.

Zhang Yi knew very well in his heart that this was only temporary.

He yawned and didn't plan to continue reading.

Going back to his warm big bed, Zhang Yi covered himself with a thin velvet quilt and comfortably closed his eyes.

His bed was very comfortable, a high-end product moved from the Walmart warehouse.

Especially the mattress, which was said to be the same as that of a certain female star, worth 3 million yuan.

Outside, heavy snow was falling, and the cold wind was howling. Inside the house, the fireplace was burning vigorously, and the temperature was pleasant.

In such a comfortable environment, Zhang Yi soon fell asleep.

...

Early the next morning, Zhang Yi was woken up by the ringing of his mobile phone.

He opened his eyes and saw that it was Fang Yuqing, the white lotus, who was calling him.

Having his good dream interrupted, Zhang Yi naturally wasn't in a good mood.

He picked up the phone and asked impatiently, "Hey, why are you calling me so early in the morning?"

Fang Yuqing was stunned for a moment when she heard Zhang Yi's cold tone.

However, soon, she still said, "Zhang Yi, it's so cold outside today! You stocked up on supplies before. Did you know in advance that there would be a big drop in temperature?"

Fang Yuqing's voice was trembling a little, as if she was trying her best to endure something.

Hearing this, the corner of Zhang Yi's mouth curled into a mocking arc.

Sure enough, this white lotus wouldn't come to him without a reason.

He said lazily, "I just heard a friend mention it casually. But I didn't expect the temperature to drop so drastically."

He lifted the quilt. The temperature in the room was so high that he was sweating a little.

Zhang Yi put on his slippers and walked outside. When he came to the floor-to-ceiling window, his eyes narrowed when he saw the familiar scene in front of him.

The heavy snow outside had already submerged the whole city. Now he couldn't even see the streets and the bushes on the roadside.

He could only vaguely see the outlines of the city's buildings. Most of the first floors of many houses had been submerged.

And the heavy snow was still falling. The snowflakes like goose feathers kept falling to the ground without any sign of stopping.

On the other end of the phone, Fang Yuqing was still saying, "No wonder you stocked up on so many things. Zhang Yi, you're really something. You didn't even tell me about this in advance. I'm freezing!"

Zhang Yi frowned. He didn't expect that she still had the nerve to come and complain to him.

He directly hung up the phone and then threw the mobile phone aside.

Then, he went to the bathroom and took a comfortable hot bath.

After that, he took out a piece of top-notch A5 Wagyu beef from the space and had steak with spaghetti for breakfast.

While having breakfast, he turned on the TV to watch.

Now that the temperature had just dropped and there hadn't been a power outage yet, the TV could still be watched normally.

However, even if there was a power outage, Zhang Yi had already prepared various backup power supplies, dozens of generators and a huge amount of gasoline.

There would be no problem with the energy supply for at least 300 years!

After turning on the TV, Zhang Yi first tuned to the morning news channel.

Although as a reborn person, he knew what was going on outside.

But at this time, taking a look at the situation outside was also a way of passing the time.

On the news station, both anchors were actually wearing thick down jackets.

You know, in a place like a TV station, the central air conditioning wouldn't be stingy, and it was also a place with priority power supply.

But if the anchors needed to wear down jackets, it meant that the temperature had reached a point where the central air conditioning couldn't completely resist it.

The female anchor tried to speak in a calm tone facing the camera and said, "Last night, a strong cold air mass hit all parts of the world, resulting in drastic changes in the global temperature. The general temperature drop reached 70 to 100 degrees Celsius."

"The meteorological department is currently investigating the cause of the invasion of this cold air mass."

"In the next few days, I hope everyone pays attention to keeping warm and don't get frostbitten."

"If it's not necessary, try not to go out as much as possible."

"The authorities will properly solve this problem. I hope everyone won't panic."

"Don't spread rumors or believe rumors, and don't rush to hoard supplies. The snow disaster will pass soon."

Hearing the female anchor's words, Zhang Yi sneered.

After the Ice Age came, if one wanted to survive, one could only rely on oneself. If one stupidly stayed at home and did nothing, one would surely be among the first to die.

In the upper right corner of the TV, it was already shown that the outdoor temperature in Tianhai City had reached minus 65 degrees Celsius!

You know, during the day yesterday, the highest temperature in Tianhai City was still 15 degrees Celsius. That is to say, the temperature dropped by 80 degrees Celsius all at once!

Zhang Yi shrugged. The degree of this temperature drop was exactly the same as in his previous life.

However, now he was wearing pajamas, drinking red wine and having steak with spaghetti, and couldn't feel the cold outside at all.

After all, it was a safe house built at a cost of 8 million yuan, and he had specifically emphasized the heat preservation function, so the temperature in the house hardly dropped.

At this time, Zhang Yi's mobile phone rang again.

He was quite interested and really wanted to see what those neighbors who had laughed at him before were chatting about.

The first message he saw was from Fang Yuqing.

"Zhang Yi, why did you suddenly hang up on me!"

"It's snowing so heavily outside. I can't go out. Didn't you buy a lot of food? Could you lend me some first? I'll pay you back when the snow disaster is over."

Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The white lotus had a brain. She knew that with such heavy snow, food would become very expensive.

She didn't want to go out in the extremely low temperature of minus sixty or seventy degrees Celsius, so she wanted to ask Zhang Yi for food.

However, Zhang Yi knew that this ice age disaster would last for a very long time and wouldn't pass quickly at all.

Moreover, he definitely wouldn't give Fang Yuqing a bite of food!

In his previous life, he was bewitched by this white lotus and gave her a lot of the food in his home.

In the end, she even killed Zhang Yi and wanted to dig out Zhang Yi's ribs to make soup!

For such a woman, Zhang Yi now just wanted to play tricks on her and then watch how miserably she would die.

Thinking of this, a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he sent a message to Fang Yuqing.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? I've almost eaten up all the things I stocked at home. Look, I just fried a steak this morning!"

After saying that, Zhang Yi also took a selfie of himself, the steak and the red wine on the table.

He deliberately took a picture of himself in pajamas and then sent it to Fang Yuqing.
