Chapter 309 Escape from the Basement

Shi Jiaojiao never thought that the biggest financial sponsor would be by her side.

The gold bars were taken out of the package one by one and then neatly placed on the coffee table.

There are eighteen 50g gold bars and twenty 100g gold bars.

Shi Jiaojiao pinched her palm and calculated quickly. If all of these were swallowed by the Time Pig, she would get a total of 2,900 minutes, which is 48 and a half hours!

Two full days more!

Wang Jia seemed to see the shock in Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci's eyes, and explained, "These were all prepared by my father before the end of the world. When I bought the gold bars, I was wondering why he had such a hobby. Now that I think about it, he must have received some news in advance."

After she finished speaking, she added: "I saw that you seemed to like gold very much before, and I was thinking about changing it for you with a few gold bars, but later you didn't seem to need it so I didn't say anything."

Shi Jiaojiao nodded. At that time, they were looking for gold everywhere in order to upgrade the space. Later, when the museum was built, the demand for gold was not so high.

Once the space is upgraded successfully, she will no longer need gold.

She just didn't expect that Wang Jia was actually a wealthy woman.

She didn't have any thoughts about Wang Jia's concealment. Hadn't she concealed many things before? If it wasn't a matter of life and death this time, she would definitely continue to conceal it.

Besides, it is normal for adults to have their own secrets, not to mention that Wang Jia is now willing to contribute all the gold bars.

When you think about it this way, things are really mysterious.

If she had refused to bring Wang Jia and Tang Wei into the space for the sake of her own secret, how could there be so many gold bars now?

Wang Jia didn't know what Shi Jiaojiao was thinking. She glanced at the countdown on the wall of the living room. In just a short while, five minutes had gone by.

She had never felt five minutes pass so quickly. Time slipped away in the blink of an eye.

Without thinking too much, she quickly picked up the gold bar and stuffed it into the mouth of the time pig, and then instructed Tang Wei: "I remember we still have some gold ornaments found outside, you can quickly look through them."

Tang Wei responded, rummaged through all the luggage, and found two rings, four pairs of earrings and three necklaces.

However, this kind of gold has a fixed price. It looks good, but weighs only a few grams.

Shi Jiaojiao didn't despise it either. She took it from Tang Wei's hand and stuffed it into the Time Pig's mouth.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.

After all the gold bars and gold ornaments were swallowed up, I waited for about a minute and changes appeared on the screen.

【Storage time: 3065 minutes】

【Extraction time: 0】

Wang Jia looked at the screen and asked, "How is this calculated? Isn't the duration wrong?"

Shi Jiaojiao explained: "The calculation is correct. One gram of gold can be exchanged for one minute. I have exchanged 142 minutes before. Add your scattered jewelry, and the total is this much."

Wang Jia looked at the more than 3,000 minutes on the screen, and it seemed as if he saw his life bar turn from red to yellow, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was her biological father who was reliable and saved her life.

In fact, to be honest, most of the things her father prepared were food and various equipment, and gold bars were the least. He prepared these only for emergencies. After all, no one could be sure whether gold could still be used as currency after the end of the world.

Shi Jiaojiao was a little curious, "But when you moved out of the villa, there weren't a lot of supplies inside."

Of course, this number is based on ordinary people. When Wang Jia moved, they all went to help. Although there were a lot of supplies moved out of the villa, it was not outrageous. You have to know that the Wang family has a company, so no matter how you calculate it, there shouldn't be only that many things.

Wang Jia curled her lips and said, "Indeed, there are more than that. Although my father donated a large sum of money, he also left a lot behind. He must have prepared other backup plans, but he just didn't tell me."

Tang Wei was curious: "Then I won't tell you, all the hard work you put in has gone to waste, right?"

He had met Wang's father before. It was impossible for a man who loved his daughter so much not to leave some protection for her.

At this time, Mu Ci, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up: "Not telling her is the best thing for her. If she doesn't have the ability, all those supplies will be a death warrant."

Wang Jia lowered her eyes and sighed softly. She understood that Mu Ci was right.

Everyone felt Wang Jia's depression and spontaneously ended the topic.

Now that we have time, the next thing is how to escape from the basement to the ground level.

Shi Jiaojiao took out the mask artifact: "This mask is a product of space, it can be used as an oxygen cylinder, one can be used for 24 hours."

Wang Jia looked at the mask and suddenly felt familiar.

By the way, isn’t this the mask that Jiaojiao gave her when she was infected by the white fog?

She always felt that after wearing the mask, not only did her breathing become much easier, but the rate of infection also slowed down.

It turns out that this is a product of space.

Thinking of this, Wang Jia couldn't help but feel a little sour in her nose. Jiaojiao was always taking care of her and Tang Wei quietly.

Shi Jiaojiao didn't notice Wang Jia's expression, but frowned and said, "There is another problem now. Even if we breathe normally, our human body strength can't withstand the pressure of so much yellow sand."

You have to know that the basement is five meters high and they are standing at the bottom. If they don’t solve this problem, they will still die if they get out.

Mu Ci looked at the scenery outside the window and suddenly asked, "How about making a big wooden box?"

Tang Wei scratched his head. "If the wooden box is made strong, it can indeed prevent us from being crushed to death by the yellow sand after we get out. But if we stay in the wooden box, we can only enter from one cage to another, and we still can't get out."

Shi Jiaojiao tapped the table with her fingertips: "The basement is five meters high, so we can make a five-meter-high wooden box to isolate the yellow sand outside the wooden box, and then we can climb out from it."

Wang Jia had a complicated expression.

Putting aside whether the four of them have the skills to do so, just take the five-meter-high wooden box for example; it cannot be made in a short time.

And even if they did, how would they climb out? With a ladder? Where would they find a five-meter-high ladder?

Tang Wei also felt that this idea would not work and looked disapproving.

The more Shi Jiaojiao thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

She was just about to assign tasks when she saw Wang Jia and Tang Wei's hesitant expressions.

Shi Jiaojiao's mind raced, and she immediately understood the concerns in the two people's hearts.

She simply raised her hand to summon the little robots over and asked them to start the live performance.

He even revealed a secret that had been hidden for a long time.

"What? The cave near the farmhouse was dug by these two robots?"

Wang Jia was so shocked that she could almost fit a fist into her mouth.

Mu Ci said casually: "How could it be such a coincidence that we just wanted to move to the mountain and there happened to be a cave on the mountain, and there were exactly two caves, not more, not less."
