After a few mouthfuls of the biscuit, and after stuffing his stomach with the snow on the ground, Zhao Hao didn’t dare to eat more.
Although he had brought a few biscuits with him, there were so many people present. One bite per person was not enough for him to share. It was better to finish the work earlier and get the supplies back home to eat a warm meal.
“Are you done eating? It’s time to work!”
Zhao Hao waited for Wang Wei to swallow the last mouthful before he patted his butt and got up from the ground.
At this time, some people in other districts could not sit still anymore. They saw that Wang Wei and Zhao Hao were about to reach the roof of the supermarket!
Hence, the people in the various districts began to discuss.
They would dig the place where they were standing. Whoever contributed could go in and take the things. Whoever did not contribute was not allowed to go down.
Although they said that, everyone knew what would happen in reality and how many people would abide by this agreement.
However, seeing that Zhao Hao and Wang Wei were digging deeper and deeper, they couldn’t help but feel anxious.
The people in the Jinghua District definitely wouldn’t allow these people to go and steal the fruits of their labor.
What if all the things in the supermarket were snatched away by the people in the Jinghua District?!
Therefore, the owners of all the respective residential areas spontaneously formed circles and took turns digging.
Ye Xingchen picked up his coffee and took a sip. Then, he added two creamers and one packet of sugar. He had been studying the drone that he had taken out from the space for the whole morning.
He was eating lunch at noon, and before he could swallow the crab roe tofu in his mouth, Zhao Hao sent him a message.
He picked up his phone and saw that it was a video.
The snow was white, and Zhao Hao’s shovel was leaning against the wall of snow.
“Not bad. I thought they would be in a stalemate for a long time before someone started digging.”
Ye Xingchen praised. He picked up another steamed crab dumpling and took a small bite, carefully drinking the soup inside.
Ye Xingchen was taking an afternoon nap on the chaise lounge after eating and drinking his fill. On the other side, Zhao Hao and his group almost got into a conflict with the people from the neighborhood next door.
The cause of the incident was very simple. In fact, when Zhao Hao was digging snow, he used too much force on one of the shovels and it had fallen into the “territory” of the neighboring neighborhood.
“Hey! What are you doing?”
“You did it on purpose, didn’t you? Throwing snow at us?”
“What’s wrong? Does this place belong to your family? Isn’t it just a little snow? Why are you so mad?”
“What are you shouting for? It’s just that my hand was shaking. It’s not a big deal!”
The people in the two districts were ready to start cursing. Zhao Hao and Wang Wei, who were in the pit, suddenly poked something hard with their shovels. “Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao! Look! Is this the roof?”
Wang Wei pulled the hard surface apart and gradually revealed the original color of the cement.
It should be the balcony by the roof. Zhao Hao and Wang Wei’s eyes lit up.
Just as they were happily digging, the people on the snow started quarreling.
They all insisted on their own words. The people in the Jinghua residential area naturally supported Zhao Hao. After all, they knew that Zhao Hao was famous for being a good person. They were also in the same residential area as him. When he was done digging, he would definitely not stop them from going down to look for supplies.
Meanwhile, the people from Wangjiang District were the ones who had quarreled with them. They were all clamoring to let them enter the tunnel that Zhao Hao had dug.
While they were quarreling, the other two districts were even preparing to fight!
The reason was simple. Everyone couldn’t stand it anymore and started to dig in the snow. However, if they dug a hole, they would have to find a place to throw the extra snow.
In the end, people from the East Flower Garden fell into the pit dug by the Waterside Pavilion people.
“Are you looking for a beating?”
“On purpose? You want to fill in the hole that I just dug?”
The people living on both sides were all high-income people. They were all proud and capable. How could they be willing to endure such humiliation? Therefore, they pushed each other and bumped into each other. In an instant, the people on both sides began to fight each other.
The days of being locked up for more than a month with no water, electricity, ammunition, and food were already despairing. Everyone had a lot of anger hidden in their hearts. At this time, such a small matter was like a match thrown into a gasoline can. It was ignited at the slightest touch.
The land was only so big, and there were so many people. There were quite a few people coming from each district. Over there, the people from the East Flower Garden and the Waterside Pavilion were fighting, and it was difficult to avoid bumping into people from other districts.
With the exception of the people who were digging the snow, almost everyone participated in the fight.
Zhao Hao and Wang Wei dug for an hour and rested for ten minutes. At this time, Zhao Hao took out his phone and sent a video to Ye Xingchen. Then, Zhao Hao told Ye Xingchen that there were many people fighting in the snow.
Ye Xingchen had nothing to do at home and was bored. After waking up from his afternoon nap, he had finished watching a movie. He had his afternoon tea while waiting for Zhao Hao to report the scene to him every hour.
“Sigh, they’re all fighting now. Isn’t it a bad idea for me to send a drone out now?”
Lin Sijia, who was sitting next to Ye Xingchen, couldn’t help but roll her eyes when she heard Ye Xingchen’s words.
“Yeah, it’s indeed not good. Don’t you think you should have released the drones earlier? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have seen these wonderful scenes.”
Ye Xingchen grinned at Lin Sijia. He took a drone that had been calibrated and walked to the small room on the balcony. He put on his clothes and opened the window. A reinforced drone appeared in the sky above Jinghua District.
After taking off his clothes and returning to his room, Ye Xingchen piloted the drone to the supermarket near them. Although Zhao Hao didn’t tell Ye Xingchen where they were, Ye Xingchen could guess the place when he saw that they didn’t have any means of transportation in the snow.
After connecting to the projector, Ye Xingchen directly lowered the curtain and projected the image from the drone onto the curtain.
Mo Qi was still practicing how to make head-sized purple lightning balls while squatting beside Little Black and stroking his fur.
On the screen, countless teens and adults were already fighting. Some of them even fell into the pit they had dug.
“Wonderful, wonderful. Sigh, it’s a pity that it’s too dangerous to go out. Otherwise, I really want to go out and see the scene.”
Those seemingly gentle people were ruthless. They were completely aiming for death.
“I wonder how long it will take them to dig up the supermarket at this speed..”
