Chapter 16: Chapter 16: The Thrifty and Economical Housewife

Liang Yuan pointed to the balcony outside the kitchen and said, "I have a generator here."

Yang Mei was overjoyed and quickly ran around the kitchen counter to the north balcony.

Liang Yuan's apartment had a structure with balconies on both the north and south sides. Besides the balcony in the living room, there was also one outside the kitchen.

The freezer and the generator were placed on the north balcony behind the kitchen, while the refrigerator was inside the kitchen.

Upon hearing the humming sound of the generator, Yang Mei's eyes widened in disbelief, shining with surprise.

"Electricity, you actually have electricity here!"

"This is great, so great, sob..."

She was so excited that she started crying.

It should be noted that the entire community had been without electricity since the second day of the great flood.

Back then, her refrigerator at home also had a lot of frozen goods, but with the heat in June, the fridge couldn't work without power, making it impossible to store food.

This led to a lot of food going to waste, which could have lasted her family for half a year if they had been frugal.

Now, seeing that Liang Yuan had a generator, she was naturally elated.

Then she suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Liang Yuan, excitedly saying, "Little brother, can this generator charge a phone? My phone is dead. If we can charge it, we might be able to contact the outside, contact the government..."

Liang Yuan looked at her excited expression and shook his head slightly, "Don't get your hopes up. I've tried a long time ago. Not only can't we contact the outside world, but there's also no network. Except for the radio, none of the communication or network devices work anymore."

Yang Mei's smile froze. She couldn't believe it and blurted out, "No... that's impossible, right? It's just a flood. How could there be no signal at all? Signal towers are usually taller than buildings; they shouldn't be damaged."

After all, she was well-educated and knew that mobile signals came from towers.

Liang Yuan didn't waste any words and handed her his phone, "If there was a signal, don't you think I would have called for help? See for yourself."

Yang Mei hurriedly took the phone. Liang Yuan's phone was fully charged, but the signal bar was completely empty, not a single bar.
