The rain in May comes as soon as it comes.

In the evening, the sky was still cloudless and steaming.

But at about eight o'clock in the evening, the heavy rain suddenly fell and began to bring a touch of coolness to the dusty plain.

Thanks to the territory's emphasis on water conservancy, even in this small town of Sangtian, floods like those in the origin territory did not occur.

Except for the continuous gurgling sound from the sewer outlet, the lives of people living in the town have basically not been affected.

Those who do business are still doing business, and those who go to the fields are still working in raincoats.

Many people are even thankful that the rain has finally brought down the persistent high temperature a lot, sparing them the pain of their skin and flesh in the fields under the bright sun.

However, this trace of happiness only lasted for one night.

After realizing that the rain still showed no signs of stopping the next day, and instead continued to rain heavier and heavier, more and more people could only pray silently in their hearts.

This rain before the summer harvest can pass quickly and not bring other variables to the next harvest.

But it's a pity that when it comes to praying, you can only do your best and listen to God's will.

Starting from the evening of June 2nd until June 6th.

Four whole days passed, and when Sumo woke up in the morning, the sound of rain that reached his ears still showed no sign of getting smaller!

"Ah, Brother Zong, why did you wake up so early?"

"It's only five-fifty. You don't go to work until seven-thirty. It's still almost two hours!"

"But breakfast will be ready soon. There is your favorite spicy mashed potato buns. You can go and wash up first."

When she saw Somo coming out of the middle room and Huang Xiaojuan, who was busy working on the stove, she poked her head out and shouted twice with joy.

Because the rain was so heavy, the entire fields near Sangtian Town had basically turned into a puddle of mud.

In this case, let alone working in the fields, even if you go for a walk, you will be turned into a clay doll.

So starting from the afternoon of the next day, all planting-related industries in Sangtian Town continued, except for those working indoors.

Workers in other industries have almost all been shut down.

Of course, what makes Huang Xiaojuan so happy is that when purchasing the territorial identity, there is a contract that restricts both parties.

Like now, even though I can't do my job, I still get paid.

And under this kind of paid leave, she even imagined that it would rain for ten days and a half, which made people feel dumbfounded.

"Okay, don't worry, I'll clean up the water in the yard first."

He waved his hand and looked at the courtyard that was about to be flooded again after a night, and Oreo who was forced to squat under the eaves.

Somo moved his shoulders, picked up the broom made of thick leaves, and began to sweep out to the street.

During these four days, the drainage system of Sangtian Town has undoubtedly been severely tested.

But what is reassuring is that this town was structured according to the standards of natural disasters in the wasteland when it was first established.

Although there has been a lot of rain in the past four days, it is still far away from this mark.

For example, the management staff of Sangtian Town even have time to come and maintain Gutian Third Street in front of the courtyard.

"Hey, you guys are cleaning the courtyard too!"

After sweeping from under the eaves to outside the door, he opened the courtyard door and stood outside. Looking at the two people who were also standing on the street sweeping water, Somo laughed "honestly".

When he first came here, there were only two families living in this Gutian Third Street.

Moreover, the two households were located at the head of the alley, not close to him at the end of the alley. They were three small streets away.

But the strange thing is that it only took two days.

After the heavy rain began to fall, one after another "neighbors" near the courtyard chose to move here.

As of last night, four households with a total of thirteen people had moved in, making the whole street suddenly lively.

These people vary in height, short, fat, and thin, and include men, women, old and young.

If Sumo hadn't sensed the surveillance of these people a long time ago, he might not have been able to detect that these "family"-like organizations were actually disguised.

"Isn't that right? It rained so hard that it was only one night and it almost flooded my house!"

We had been together for two days, but since Sumo left early and came back late every day, the two of them had no time to strike up a conversation.

At this time, Wang Qian, the shirtless and slightly fat man, was obviously a little happy to be greeted by Sumo. He quickly said:

"Brother Su, I smell the delicious food here. Otherwise, we will pay you for the ingredients and add some processing fees."

"Can you help a few of us take care of the food? It's too expensive to eat out here!"

"Oh? You know my surname is Su?"

He tilted his head slightly "confused" and looked at Wang Qian who was obviously stunned and his face turned pale.

Su Mo suppressed his laughter and coughed lightly: "It's not impossible, but I have to ask my Xiaojuan to see if she is willing. After all, I am just a eater."

"Okay, okay, we won't force it. I figure we are neighbors and we can help each other with anything, right?"

Seeing that Su Mo was not struggling with this issue, Wang Qian breathed a sigh of relief and quickly moved on with the topic.

For a moment, in a friendly atmosphere of communication.

After sweeping all the water in the courtyard into the sewer, Sumo clapped his hands with satisfaction and began to go home and wash up.

When they sat down at the dining table, Huang Xiaojuan just brought the meal over, making the room steamy and full of fireworks.

"Brother Zong, I saw you and those people next door talking about something, what, do they want to spy on us?"

First, Huang Xiaojuan glanced out the window anxiously to make sure that the group was not eavesdropping nearby, then Huang Xiaojuan turned her head and made a knife gesture.

When she was in Qingguo's territory, she wouldn't be so sensitive.

After all, although she had been a refugee for a period of time at that time, she had not really encountered any life-or-death crisis.

It was not until later, when she was startled by the Liu brothers on the train and walked through the door of life and death once, that Huang Xiaojuan realized the danger of the wasteland, and she now suffered from mild persecution paranoia.

"What are you thinking about? Our Tianyuan territory is so safe, how can it be as complicated as you think?"

"Besides, they came to me just now and wanted to come over for a meal. They said they were providing ingredients and processing fees. How could they be bad people?"

Picking up a big white steamed bun, Somo dipped it into the spicy mashed potatoes on the plate and laughed while eating.

No wonder Huang Xiaojuan was so vigilant, when these people first monitored him.

On the first night, even though Oreo was outside to warn him, Sumo didn't fall asleep much. He remained half asleep, ready to break out into a fight at any time.

But then I moved here from these people and started to express goodwill intentionally or unintentionally.

The situation has changed again.

During the two days, although they monitored the courtyard all the time, they kept an eye on the whereabouts of the two of them.

But there is one point that has been ignored.

Oreo!

With the appearance of a Chinese pastoral dog as a cover, Oreo looks clumsy. He goes out for a walk regularly every day and only comes back when he is crazy enough.

But in fact, in the blind spot monitored by these people, Oreo had already lurked there, eavesdropping on information.

Following a chain of links, Sumo already knew the specific origin and purpose of these people as early as the morning of June 4th.

"Ah? They are not bad people, are they?"

Upon hearing about Su Mo's safety, Huang Xiaojuan patted her chest and sat down with relief.

But then, she continued energetically: "Brother Zong, have they told you how much the processing fee is!"

"Hey, I knew you were a money addict!"

Looking helplessly at Huang Xiaojuan, who was getting excited again, Su Mo casually spit out the price Wang Qian had offered before.

In order to hide the purpose of himself and others, and for fear of Sumo becoming suspicious, Wang Qian offered a low price, which was basically in accordance with the standards of restaurants in the town.

The material fee for each of three meals a day is fully included, and the processing fee is 0.1 point per meal.

In other words, Wang Xiaojuan could only earn 0.3 points after working for a whole day.

After three days, I couldn't even reach a little bit.

Calculated based on the high price of 39,800 points of the micro development platform, she would have to work non-stop for 363 years to just meet this price.

only.

"0.1 points, that's 0.3 points every day, plus my current daily salary is 0.5 points, holy shit, I can earn 0.8 points in one day???"

Compared to Qingguo territory, a family of three would have to work for a whole year to earn about ten points.

After calculating that it would take him less than 13 days to reach this number, Huang Xiaojuan froze on the stool and giggled.

And when she looked like this, she was so happy that Oreo, who was lowering his head to cook next to him, also started laughing along with her.

"Quick, stop laughing, hurry up and eat!"

The atmosphere is joyful and the food is delicious.
