Chapter 7 Task Center
Among the boys in Xiangcheng Middle School uniforms, a classmate of Qiao Lingxiang's class saw Qiao Lingxiang sitting on a bench by the roadside, and shouted:
Dinosaur, get up and go, you are so fat, you need to exercise more, hurry up, sit down again, the chair will be broken by you.
With Qiao Lingxiang's size and her status as Qiao Yuelan's younger sister, there is probably no one in Xiangcheng Middle School who doesn't know Qiao Lingxiang.
Therefore, after hearing Qiu Chen's words, the boys around all laughed.
But as soon as Qiu Chen finished his mocking joke, a schoolbag fell on his head. He cursed, I'm stupid, turned around and saw that it was Cen Yizheng who was carrying his schoolbag, and threw it at him again. Got hit in the face.
Cen thought you were sick?
Qiu Chen who was smashed was beaten back several steps, looking at Cen Yi, he was a little afraid of Cen Yi, and asked:
What did you hit me for?
Cen Yi's handsome face was expressionless, with one hand carrying a black schoolbag and the other in his pants pocket, he just walked forward without looking at Qiao Lingxiang who was sitting by the side of the road.
When passing by the boy who was beaten, he said lazily, with arrogance and arrogance, in a low voice:
I see you are not happy.
Qiu Chen was so angry that he blushed and stood there with a thick neck, looked at Cen Yi's back, and clenched his fists.
Beside him, the male students who were laughing at Qiao Lingxiang were distracted by Cen Yi and Qiu Chen who was beaten, but no one paid any attention to the fat man sitting on the bench by the roadside.
Several high school seniors who followed Cen Yi turned their heads from time to time, but instead looked at Qiu Chen with smiling eyes.
Qiu Chen felt very ashamed. Although Cen Yi's schoolbag was thrown at him, he didn't hurt him, but in front of so many people, Cen Yi targeted him like this, the boys couldn't bear it.
He moved forward a few steps, and fell behind a group of students rushing to Xiangcheng Middle School, slowly digesting the humiliation by himself.
Among the boys in that group, there was one who had a good relationship with Cen Yi. His name was Lu Zhengqing. He put his arms around Cen Yi's shoulders, and asked with peach blossom eyes:
What are you doing? Did my apprentice offend you?
Cen Yi tilted his head, glanced at Lu Zhengqing who was beside him with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and said nothing.
A group of people just left.
Qiao Lingxiang, who was sitting on a bench by the side of the road, lowered her head and waited for the group of people to pass by her, then raised her head and looked at Cen Yi's back.
Was he helping her just now?
It was a coincidence that he just ran into Qiu Chen who had just opened his mouth to taunt her. He turned his head and gave Qiao Lingxiang a hard look, as if telling Qiao Lingxiang that all the embarrassment he encountered just now was because of Qiao Lingxiang.
Looking at Qiu Chen's eyes, Qiao Lingxiang's heart sank, and she wailed secretly. She always had such a bad physique. She thought it was fine for Qiu Chen to laugh at her, but how did he know that he actually held a grudge against her.
But for such encounters, to be honest, Qiao Lingxiang is used to it, no matter what she does well or not, standing by the side watching a play, or participating in it, others will come to her to vent their inner anger.
Just like her mother got angry with Bogo, Qiao Lingxiang didn't do anything, but just stood by the door, which could also attract her mother's scolding.
Therefore, Qiu Chen looked at Qiao Lingxiang with such vicious eyes. Although her heart was heavy, she was not surprised at all.
Just wait, when she arrives at school, she will always meet Qiu Chen in some unexpected corner.
Qiao Lingxiang stood up slowly. She looked at the time on her phone. Anyway, she would be late by the time she got to school, so she didn't rush at all and just walked slowly on the street.
At this time, her stomachache caused by hunger had subsided a lot, and she became more and more relaxed, walking on the road step by step with her big thick legs.
Then, outside a mission center.
The commander-in-chief of the central system, delivered a heavy speech last year, and told everyone very sensationally that the end of the world is coming, and resources have been exhausted, and everyone should unite to resist the end of the world, etc., etc.
What is the last days?
At the beginning, everyone had no idea about this end-time where resources are exhausted, because many experts jumped out and said that there are many alternative new energy sources, such as water energy, wind energy, solar energy, nuclear energy, etc., can all be used.
The commander-in-chief of the central system is afraid that he is crazy to make such a televised speech.
Therefore, people still go to work, study, fall in love, and get married as usual. And the city commander of the central system, after speaking these words, was voted out by angry people the next month.
At that time, no one believed that what the commander-in-chief of the central system city said was true.
In the end, what people really said was true,
Later, I don’t know why, but suddenly, the energy in the city began to run short, water and electricity cut off at every turn, and the gasoline in the gas station often ran out.
The only wind energy, water energy, tidal energy, and nuclear energy... Half of these energies are always inexplicably consumed during transportation, and the rest is simply not enough to satisfy everyone.
Don’t ask why, it’s just research.
In order to solve this problem, the commanders of various cities began to advocate people to save energy, and began to issue energy coupons for this purpose, and actively cultivated outstanding talents in the society to research and develop new energy sources.
After energy coupons, due to the side effects of energy shortages, material shortages were triggered. Therefore, rice coupons, water coupons, and cooking oil coupons were issued. These coupons are not money, and the labor force of each position will issue these coupon.
Only with coupons in hand can we buy these energy and materials with money.
This caused a series of problems, that is, a large number of urban population was laid off and returned to the countryside. The lack of raw material supply for industrial production further triggered a wave of laid-off workers.
It can be said that the people who are still sticking to the city are those who have no one in the countryside.
Qiao Lingxiang didn't know why there was a shortage of energy, and why the various new energy sources were not used enough.
She sighed leisurely, and stood at the door of the mission center, where there was an entire wall with some team information posted asking for teammates.
Once these teams are formed, they will go out of the city to find something called a power stone. It is said that the power stone will emit light at night, which can be used to illuminate, charge the battery, drive some machines that filter water and purify water, and can also be used to run electric cars. From solar energy, water energy, wind energy, and nuclear energy, they can be used directly without a huge infrastructure, which is much more convenient and easy to use.
But this is a controlled material. The city management system has a department dedicated to purchasing energy stones, called the trading house.
The city administrators encouraged the unemployed to go out of the city to look for energy stones. As long as a team brought back energy stones, they could go to the trading house and exchange energy stones for energy coupons.
But the administrators will not tell the folks how to use the energy in the power stones. They just collect them. After collecting all the power stones, they will extract the energy in a unified way to feed the people of the whole city.
Do you want to go out of the city to find energy stones? Today there is a task to find energy stones. Task applicants can get a bag of compressed biscuits according to the number of people in the team.
There are mission center staff, dressed in suits and leather shoes, standing at the door, handing out leaflets to passers-by.
For those who haven’t collected it yet, please help me collect it, thank you.
