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

Chapter 16: Aunt Lin's Revenge and Zhang Yi's Direct Confrontation



Zhang Yi sat on the sofa and yawned listlessly.

While others were living through days of hunger and cold, he was living a life even more comfortable than in paradise.

There was the most perfect heat insulation system in his home, along with an inexhaustible supply of fuel, which was enough to keep his safe house at the most comfortable and constant temperature all year round.

Next, he didn't need to do anything. All he had to do was to make himself happy every day.

On TV, there were no good programs at this time.

Various premieres had also been suspended due to the extreme low temperature.

After all, those beautiful female anchors that he usually liked the most couldn't possibly endure the low temperature of minus sixty or seventy degrees Celsius, or even over a hundred degrees Celsius, to wear a camisole and dance.

If there were such people, Zhang Yi could only give a thumbs-up and praise them by saying, "What a tough person!"

He opened his alien space. In the area of electronic devices, there were quite a number of game consoles and many 3A masterpieces of games.

There were hundreds of brand-new and unopened PS5s, Switch consoles or Xboxes.

As for game cartridges, there were as many as tens of thousands of sets.

Zhang Yi took out the latest PS5 and installed it on the 100-inch huge Sony TV at home, and then started playing games.

He was playing the latest 3A action game of this year, "Bayonetta 3".

Beside him, there were also games like "Elden Ring", "The Witcher 3" and "Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice".

If one wanted to kill time, they were all very good choices.

If one thought the game time was too short, there were even games that required a lot of time and energy like "Civilization" and "Cities: Skylines", which could make him have a great time playing.

In the future, he didn't need to consider work or worldly affairs. Such a life was even more enjoyable than the life before the end of the world!

Since he was at home alone, Zhang Yi was only wearing pajamas, eating snacks while playing games, having a great time.

After a while, his mobile phone rang.

Zhang Yi casually picked it up and took a look. He found that it was the annoying Aunt Lin from the neighborhood committee who @ him in the group.

"Zhang Yi, the roads outside are now blocked by heavy snow. You should take tools and come out to help clear the snow later!"

There was an authoritative tone in her words.

Zhang Yi also saw that she was calling on everyone in the group to go out and clear the snow together, but very few people responded.

Unexpectedly, she came directly to him.

Zhang Yi took a look at the heavy snow outside the house. Almost the entire first floor was covered.

With snow three meters deep, it was almost impossible to clear it by manpower.

Moreover, Zhang Yi knew that the snow would continue to fall for at least three more months.

Going out to clear the snow now wouldn't be as fast as the snow falling.

Zhang Yi immediately refused, "Going out in such cold weather would turn one into an ice lolly in a short while. Even if we want to clear the snow, we should wait until the snow stops."

Some people below also echoed Zhang Yi.

"Yes, it's minus seventy degrees Celsius outside. One would probably get frostbite if going out for a while."

"We're not in the Northeast here. There isn't any proper cold-proof equipment at all. How can we go out?"

Aunt Lin got anxious on the spot.

"What kind of attitude is this? Clearing the snow isn't for me, but for everyone!"

"You are all young and strong guys. When facing a disaster, if you don't take the initiative to serve the people and all just think about escaping, how can that be okay?"

She pointed the finger at Zhang Yi, who was the first to oppose her.

"Zhang Yi, I order you in the name of the neighborhood committee that you must go out to clear the snow!"

"Now is a critical moment. We must unite and follow the organization's command!"

"Whoever dares to take the lead in opposing me is opposing the leadership of the neighborhood committee! After the snow disaster is over, you will surely be held accountable by the organization!"

Aunt Lin once again brought out her identity as a member of the neighborhood committee.

The owners immediately dared to be angry but dared not speak out.

Now that the snow disaster had just arrived and various social orders still existed, everyone didn't dare to violate them.

Although these neighborhood committee members seemed to have little power, because the little power in their hands was closely related to everyone in daily life, everyone was a bit reluctant to mess with them.

Everyone remained silent, and no one wanted to be the first to stand out.

However, many people hoped that Zhang Yi would stand up and fiercely confront Aunt Lin, and let him be the first to speak up for everyone.

Of course, Zhang Yi knew what these people were thinking. He showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth and despised them extremely in his heart.

However, it was impossible for him to swallow his anger.

So he decided to directly break with Aunt Lin.

He looked through the chat records above. The people @ by Aunt Lin were all young people in the community who were usually easy to talk to.

As for those troublesome troublemakers or powerful and wealthy people, she simply ignored them.

So Zhang Yi directly mocked, "Aunt Lin is right. Since it's for everyone's sake, you people from the neighborhood committee should take the lead in going out to clear the snow."

"Besides, when it comes to being young and strong, there are so many people in our community. Why did you only call on us few?"

"Do you think we are easy to bully? You didn't @ those socialites or rich second-generation kids at all."

"Why? Are you too scared to say a word when it comes to them?"

When the other owners saw Zhang Yi say this, they all nodded with satisfaction.

"Zhang Yi is really speaking for me on the Internet!"

"Right. She's only looking for honest people. Why didn't she go to Chen Zhenghao and Xu Hao and those people?"

Everyone actually knew who the people Zhang Yi mentioned were.

Since they all lived in the same community, everyone knew clearly who the powerful people were in the community.

For example, Chen Zhenghao, who lived in Room 601 on the sixth floor, was a well-known local gangster. He was engaged in earthwork projects and had hundreds of people working under him.

Another example was Xu Hao, who lived in Room 802 on the eighth floor. His father was a famous real estate developer in Tianhai City, and there were also people in his family working in the government.

Aunt Lin didn't mention them at all from beginning to end.

Zhang Yi directly exposed Aunt Lin's nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, which made Aunt Lin lose face immediately.

She didn't mention those people who were not easy to mess with because she didn't have the courage, and they wouldn't pay attention to her at all.

People like her always bullied the weak and feared the strong.

If Zhang Yi had been like this before, Aunt Lin wouldn't have asked him to clear the snow here.

She felt that she had lost face and angrily sent several long voice messages in the group one after another.

"Clearing the snow is a public service and is for everyone's sake. Some people are so fussy about such trifles and have no spirit of dedication at all!"

"Such people are simply the black sheep of our owners' group!"

"If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. There are plenty of people who will do it! Everyone's awareness is much higher than yours."

"Also, I'm not treating some people specially. It's just that there's no need to @ everyone one by one. I hope you can understand clearly and don't make mistakes!"

"If you continue to post words that slander me, I'll call the police to deal with it!"

Aunt Lin's explanation somehow made things worse instead.

Especially at the end, when she even claimed that she would call the police, it made Zhang Yi burst out laughing.

When the other owners heard Aunt Lin's words, those who were timid were already a bit scared and took tools to clear the snow.

But at this time, Zhang Yi wasn't afraid of her at all.

Not to mention that the police wouldn't support her unreasonable behavior at all.

Besides, did she still think that all social systems were operating normally?
