Living like a salted fish in the end times

Chapter 123
At the same time, the seven members of Maiwen Angle's family are holding a family meeting. Unlike the Franz family, their family's financial situation is much better.

Although I couldn't afford a house, I rented an -square-meter house in the urban area, so at least I didn't have to squeeze into the resettlement site.

"Dad, are you really going to apply for the captain?"

It was the son, David Angell Jr., who spoke.

The reason why their family was able to escape across the ocean in time was all due to his father's relationship.

His father is an experienced old captain, taking advantage of his position, he brought the whole family on board.

"Yes, the other party's salary is very high, 22 yuan per month, and there are dividends, which is higher than your father's previous salary. I have no reason to refuse."

"But it's too dangerous to go to Antarctica?"

Little Angel is already the father of three children, and this family should have been supported by him, and the old father should not be allowed to take risks.

"The people in the headhunting company said that there is high insurance, and the maximum compensation can be 1000 million."

"My life is gone, what's the use of asking for money?"

Mrs. Angle couldn't help but sighed.

There is a proverb in the East, "A thousand days are good at home, but everything is difficult when you go out." This sentence is too apt to describe. Their family was originally a middle-class family, but now it has completely fallen to the bottom of society.

"Don't be silly, how can you live without money? Let's not talk about food. Now the electricity bill costs 20 yuan a degree, and a bucket of water costs more than 50. Our family's water and electricity cost tens of thousands of dollars every month. We can't just sit and eat."

"Dad, Kate and I can go out and get a job."

Little Angel and his wife quickly agreed.

Old Angel immediately waved his hand: "Don't worry about it, you both have been looking for more than a month, have you found a job? Now is not the time to look for a job.

I understand it. In the current situation, apart from volunteering for some subsidies, there is no suitable job for you in a short period of time.

Don't try to persuade me, save more money while I can still move, the housing prices in Huicheng are rising rapidly, our family must buy a house as soon as possible, so that we can settle down. "

"Dad, everything is expensive here, why don't we go to Europa?"

Little Angle suddenly retreated.

What he saw and heard during this period, as well as the bumps in the job hunting process, had a great influence on him, so much so that he had the idea of ​​fleeing the East.

Old Angel couldn't help but sighed: "Do you know why I insisted on coming to Huicheng at the time when I was far away?"

"what reason?"

Little Angel couldn't help asking curiously.

Before fleeing all the way, I thought that as long as I could leave the American continent, I didn't consider other factors at all.

"Because I have seen with my own eyes that many rich people run here with their families. The rich are well-informed, so following them will definitely make no mistakes.

Now it seems that our family's choice is indeed right, and the federal capital will be relocated soon. This is the best place for us to settle down. "

"Is Europa not bad?"

"How do you know it's not bad?"

Old Angel shook his head, then explained:
"A former colleague of mine who just came back from Europa told me that now, like Huicheng, it is a world of ice and snow.

The average temperature in Paris is only minus 50 to degrees, and there was a record of minus degrees a while ago, which is much colder than Huicheng. "

"Huh? So cold?"

Little Angel exclaimed.

The whole family was taken aback.

Good guy, it's minus three to forty degrees, and Huicheng is only so cold when the cold wave comes.

"Just look at the map and you will know that Europa has a high latitude, and the Atlantic warm current has disappeared, so it will only get colder and colder in the future."

There was wisdom in Old Angel's eyes.

Little Angel smiled sheepishly, and immediately changed his mind: "Then let's not go to Europa, should we go to Australia? The latitude is also low there."

"Haven't you read the news? The south is not peaceful now. There are riots in Southeast Asia every three days, and Australia has been greatly affected. As far as I know, tens of thousands of refugees enter the area every day."

"No way?"

"To tell you the truth, looking at the entire Federation at present, East Asia is really a little more stable, and the other regions are in chaos."

"I thought……"

"Hey, I advise you to change your minds in time. The current world is different from the past. It used to be better, but now it is worse."

In the end, Old Angle convinced the family.

……

Two days later, old Angor returned home with a smile on his face. There was no accident. With decades of rich experience, he was admitted by the Southeast Fishery Company.

After hearing the good news, Mrs. Angel immediately took her daughter-in-law to the vegetable market near the community, planning to have a good meal to celebrate.

The vegetable market is located in an abandoned large supermarket.

At this time, during the Chinese New Year, there are not only many stalls in the vegetable market, but also many customers.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law first came to the seafood stall.

"Boss, how do you sell this fish?"

Kate took the initiative to ask.

Thanks to the bilingual education promoted by the Federation, her Mandarin is better than her mother-in-law.

"Five hundred for dead fish, three thousand five for fresh fish."

After the vendor finished speaking, he picked out a dead fish weighing more than three catties and placed it in front of the two of them.

According to his past experience, all these ghosts are poor to death, and they like to buy cheap fish the most.

Kate pressed the eyes of the dead fish with her hands: "The eyes of this fish are all white, can I still eat it?"

"Don't worry, the temperature is low now, so it's definitely okay to cook on high heat for a while. We have special dishes like stinky mandarin fish and stinky mandarin fish. We use this kind of dead fish. Just add more seasoning."

The vendor tried his best to fool him.

"Can it be cheaper?"

"It's not cheap. 500 yuan is already sold at a loss. If you don't believe me, go to other stalls. My place is definitely the cheapest."

Mrs. Angel gritted her teeth, picked up a five-jin dead fish from the side, and asked in broken Mandarin:
"How much... good money?"

The vendor took the dead fish and weighed it on the scale: "Five catties and six taels, let's count it as five catties for you, let's give it two thousand five?"

"Could it be 100 yuan cheaper?"

Kate immediately counter-offered.

The vendor smiled, and chose a palm-length small fish from the basket: "I'll buy one and get one free for you again, I really can't bargain anymore."

"thank you boss!"

Kate immediately agreed, then carefully counted fifteen red notes from her wallet, and handed them over with a smile, as if she had taken advantage of it.

"You're welcome, take care of my business in the future!"

The vendor owner smiled and waved his hand.

It has only been more than three months since the eruption of the Sulfur Rock Volcano, and the locals have more or less stock in their homes. Most people are completely indifferent to dead fish and do not want to risk the health of the whole family.

Only these ghosts who are used to eating meat will flock to them occasionally to satisfy their gluttony.
