◎Happy 13th Day: Dog Sneaky Shopping for Free◎

Dongshi is the largest port city in China and also the largest foreign trade port in China. Every day, countless goods are shipped from here to all parts of the world, and countless goods land in China from here.

The purpose of Jiang Muyun's trip was energy, one of the most scarce materials after the end of the world.

Oil, coal, and natural gas. When the disaster first appeared, the country quickly gathered all these resources into its hands.

Not to mention natural gas, coal can be used for heating and cooking, and diesel is used to power generators. If Jiang Muyun wants to live a better life in the apocalypse, these resources are indispensable.

Jiang Muyun had several solar power systems. As long as she used more solar power during the dry season and stored the energy in batteries, she could get through the early stages of the apocalypse. She already had a plan for how to get enough batteries.

Compared with solar power generation, diesel generators are noisy and require diesel power supply, so the cost-effectiveness is not high no matter how you look at it.

But it can be used at any time.

This advantage alone is enough for Jiang Muyun to take the risk to get diesel.

Although it is not applicable in places where people gather, most places are deserted after the end of the world.

Regardless of the cold, drought, or heavy rain, as long as it's not submerged in water and has the right fuel, it can be used. For Jiang Muyun, who has been a lone traveler for many years, this gives her a greater sense of security than solar energy.

But even in times of peace and prosperity, it is difficult for Jiang Muyun to purchase large quantities of fuel through normal channels.

Normal roads were blocked, and Jiang Muyun didn't know where to go on abnormal roads, so in the end he could only do some sneaky things.

Jiang Muyun wore a sun mask during the day and walked around the port. When someone came to ask her about something, she would ask them about a worker named "Wang Qiang". She also chatted with him and got a general idea of ​​the layout of the goods in the nearby port.

After learning that oil tankers usually dock at fixed locations and even the oil tankers are placed in the same place, Jiang Muyun had an idea.

After finding out all this, Jiang Muyun drove to Linshi Fishing Port openly.

Jiang Muyun's space cannot accommodate living things, so she can only buy live fish, live crabs and other seafood from fishermen, then take a truckload of them to the processing shop, and wait for them to be cooked before loading them onto the truck and storing them in the space.

Jiang Muyun didn't mind the trouble and ran back and forth many times, spending most of his time waiting for the seafood to be cooked.

However, these seafoods will completely disappear after the end of the world.

What you can't eat is the best. Jiang Muyun may not like seafood very much, but as long as she thinks that she won't be able to eat it in the future, she is willing to spend time on stockpiling seafood.

In the evening, Jiang Muyun also found a hotel to spend the night, and set off back to Nanshi the next day.

There is a prospect for diesel, but she really has no idea what to do with coal.

She walked around Dongshi Port the day before yesterday and couldn't see where coal was being transported.

Moreover, she won't be able to use the diesel for a while, so it doesn't matter if she delays it for a few days. The life-saving supplies after the coal cools down need to be stockpiled as soon as possible.

Jiang Muyun thought about it for a long time, and finally started to check the anthracite manufacturer.

Although anthracite for heating is rarely seen in cities, many people still use it in villages and towns.

Whether it is used for heating in winter or for pushing a stove out to sell snacks, this cheap and easily flammable fuel is very popular.

As long as Jiang Muyun finds a small county town and asks around, he can basically find out where anthracite is sold.

Jiang Muyun drove her van and bought a few cans of car spray paint. She rotated small accessories such as glasses, hats, and masks along the way, and visited all the small manufacturers along the route from East City to South City.

She changed her outfit every time she arrived at a place, and the color of the car body also changed back and forth between silver gray, black, and champagne. She filled up the entire car every time, and then found a deserted place to put it away.

He moved from one place to another, and gradually accumulated a lot of it. Jiang Muyun also bought a lot of anthracite.

When I get back, I'll use smokeless charcoal for barbecue to fill up some of the space. At least it will be no problem to get through the early stage of the apocalypse.

When the first winter came, although the electricity supply was intermittent, it could still be sustained. If her family really couldn't bear it, she could go to a centralized relief center.

The only resources she had were those that she could get directly to others and use, and they were enough for her to spend the winter comfortably.

And when the first winter is over and before the next winter comes, Jiang Muyun will have plenty of time and opportunities to get supplies that are inconvenient to get now.

Unlike fuel oil, coal is not as strictly regulated by the government, and it is impossible to collect all of it immediately after the apocalypse. She always finds opportunities to pick up bargains.

As for the smokeless charcoal used for barbecue, Jiang Muyun was going to use it in public.

It can also be an excuse to gather for a barbecue, so that neighbors can stock up on more food and fuel.

In the middle of summer, it makes sense for her to buy more charcoal for the barbecue.

But she was a stranger, not from any of the nearby towns and villages, and suddenly she went to buy a large amount of anthracite? It was hard not to be impressed.

This is also the reason why Jiang Muyun specifically looked for some small private factories when buying anthracite, and took so much effort to trade back and forth, changing hats and masks back and forth.

These small private factories have loose management, and sometimes there is no need to contact the person in charge. The old man guarding the door can just make the decision to sell the goods without even keeping any transaction records. They are the best stockpiling points.

On the last stretch of the road before returning to Nanshi, Jiang Muyun stopped the car on a ridge of a field.

The fields on both sides were filled with newly ripened soybeans, stretching out in golden hues. Occasionally, you could hear a crackling sound, which was the sound of several sections of stalks lying on the ground and the pods bursting open after being exposed to the sun.

This golden sea was clearly a scene of yellowing leaves, but Jiang Muyun managed to see a vibrant scene.

She jumped off the ridge of the field, sat by the edge, listened to the "crackling" sound of the steam, watched the sun set little by little... then, using the cover of a large field of crops, she desperately scraped the soil into the space.

There's no way around it. Everyone can see the terrible land conditions after the apocalypse. Otherwise, with rabbits' farming skills, they wouldn't have fallen to the point of eating insects as their staple food.

She wanted to save more soil, but she couldn't just dig a hole in other people's farmland, so she could only scrape it off slowly, in small amounts and multiple times, layer by layer, without leaving any trace.

Just when Jiang Muyun was about to stop blowing, she noticed some movement in the soybean bush in front of her.

Jiang Muyun withdrew his hands from the ground, patted the dirt and stood up, then cautiously took a few steps to the side, staring at the area that was shaking slightly.

Then Jiang Muyun saw a small black head suddenly pop out from the golden cluster.

The little black head swung left and right, struggled hard for a few times, then fell out with a plop, rolled on the ground, and was covered with grass debris.

It is a small earthen dog with a pitch-black body.

It looks a little bigger than the palm of your hand, and it staggers when it walks.

No idea if it fainted from the fall or was just too young, but the little black dog looked up and stared at Jiang Muyun for a while, tilted its head, hummed twice in a coquettish voice, and then fell down.

The little black puppy was lying on the ground, looking like it would never get up again, but its thin little tail was wagging wildly, sweeping up dust and grass around it.

Perhaps because it didn't wait for Jiang Muyun's reaction, it blinked twice, hummed softly, and then stared at Jiang Muyun with its big round eyes.

Jiang Muyun:?

Is this a scam?

The author has something to say:

The original content was that the heroine got the oil, but was not allowed to write about it and was almost locked out. Fortunately, I didn’t write about using the oil before the second batch of oil arrived, so here I changed it to just stepping on the spot without doing anything (kneeling down gently)
