Even in the Apocalypse, the Lay-Flat System Only Arrives Now?

The apocalypse arrived overnight, zombies rampaged, creatures mutated, and the world became increasingly strange.

Giant pythons over a hundred meters long, giant crocodiles tens of meters lon...

Chapter 3 Preparations Before the Great Cataclysm

Jiang Wu didn't even dare to think about buying a four-wheeled vehicle because he was saving all his money for Su Ziyu's surgery.

So even though Jiang Wu is almost 33 years old, he has never even touched a steering wheel.

Not to mention driving.

In order to move the goods, Jiang Wu had to borrow a gas-powered three-wheeled vehicle from the landlord.

When we brought back the first shipment of rice and Wahaha mineral water.

The thin, 60-something landlord, who was playing chess with several other old men under the shade of a tree in front of the door, just glanced at them curiously.

When Jiang Wu drove his tricycle back with his fifth load of rice and Wahaha mineral water, the landlord couldn't help but ask loudly, "Little Jiang, are you planning to open a rice shop and a water shop?"

"No, they're all from the construction site. I'll leave them with you for a while, and you'll pay me a storage fee!" Jiang Wu replied casually.

The landlord understood and didn't ask any more questions.

After all, in the past few years, besides his regular work on the construction site, Jiang Wu has always been thinking of other ways to earn some living expenses.

It was very tough.

After Jiang Wu put his things on the ground, he prepared to move the new ones. The landlord reminded him, "Xiao Jiang, there was more than half a tank of gas in the car before. You have to fill it up for me when you return the car."

"Okay! I'll fill it up for you!" Jiang Wu was unusually generous.

The landlord looked up at Jiang Wu in surprise, having never seen him so generous before.

He thought to himself that Xiao Jiang must have made a lot of money in storage fees this time.

Jiang Wu worked from a little before 10 a.m. until a little after 3 p.m., and looked contentedly at the mountain of supplies piled up in his house.

Thousands of kilograms of rice, hundreds of kilograms of cured meat and sausages, various dried goods, instant noodles, cooked food, biscuits, snacks, and mountains of Wahaha mineral water...

This is several thousand kilograms of supplies.

Thanks to the fact that I've been doing manual labor on construction sites for years, I've gotten used to this kind of high-intensity work.

Someone else might not be able to move this much stuff.

For dinner, Jiang Wu cooked braised beef and steamed prawns, both of which are Su Ziyu's favorite dishes.

However, Jiang Wu used to only prepare these expensive ingredients during festivals.

After all, Jiang Wu knew he had no special skills or talents, and could only do manual labor, earning only so much.

We can only rely on saving money.

Some people say, "Money is earned, not saved."

Jiang Wu scoffed at this, after all, not everyone can make a lot of money.

He knew his own limitations; he could only do manual labor and earn a meager living.

If we don't cut back, where will the money for Xiaoyu's monthly medication come from?

Where does the rent come from?

How am I supposed to save the 180,000 yuan in my own account?

When the dishes were placed on the makeshift table set up on the bed, Su Ziyu, who was half-lying on the bed, glanced at Jiang Wu in surprise.

Today doesn't seem to be any special holiday...

After finishing dinner early, Jiang Wu went out again.

With daily necessities secured, but lacking weapons and protective gear, Jiang Wu took a taxi directly to the building materials market.

Things like wire and steel bars are easy to buy, but weapons are a real problem.

After asking around at many hardware stores for various reasons, Jiang Wu was finally led to a corner of the store by a small shop.

The shop owner pulled out several unsharpened machetes, saying they were made of exceptionally good steel.

These few knives cost Jiang Wu more than 5,000 yuan, a price that made Jiang Wu's teeth chatter with pain.

Having spent the money, Jiang Wu was forced to buy some whetstones and sandpaper, as the shopkeeper refused to help sharpen the blade.

They then had someone grind more than a dozen steel bars to make a steel spear.

We're just waiting for the zombies to appear so we can drill a few holes in their foreheads.

Yes, Jiang Wu is targeting zombies.

After all, he was just a pure-blooded worker who went to work on construction sites after finishing high school and carried bricks. Every day, besides working on the construction site, he took care of Su Ziyu.

They rarely have time for entertainment and have limited knowledge, so they really can't come up with any wildly imaginative catastrophes.

Moreover, when Jiang Wu is resting, he likes to watch all kinds of horror movies and zombie movies.

Upon seeing the system notification about the cataclysm and the infected, the image of zombies naturally came to mind.

At 7 p.m., Jiang Wu followed a small truck back to the small building. The truck was loaded with goods.

After unloading the goods, I gave the driver 500 yuan as a service fee to help carry the things up to the third floor.

After a day of shopping spree, Jiang Wu's 180,000 yuan fortune, which he had accumulated in his Yu'ebao (Alipay's money market fund) account for nearly ten years, is now reduced to a few hundred yuan.

Jiang Wu even bought a lot of things he usually wouldn't eat.

If the cataclysm is fake, Jiang Wu would probably be so angry he'd vomit blood on the spot.

However, Jiang Wu was quite certain that the system wouldn't lie to him.

Such an amazing system, why would it bother to deceive itself into such a miserable state?

After moving all the things to the third floor with the truck driver, it was already past 8 p.m.

There is still one hour until the start time of the cataclysm mentioned by the system.

The living room, which is several tens of square meters, and the other two secondary bedrooms were filled with all kinds of supplies.

Looking at the room full of supplies, Jiang Wu felt a strange sense of security.

With my abilities, this is all I can do.

Next, we just wait for the so-called catastrophe and leave it to fate.

Back in the master bedroom, I gave Su Ziyu a bath and changed her diaper.

Jiang Wu finally had the leisure to carefully look at the news on his phone, hoping to find some clues about the great catastrophe.

After searching the entire internet, I couldn't find any news about the end of the world or a major catastrophe.

Jiang Wu was initially a little apprehensive, wondering if he should shout something online to let everyone prepare in advance.

But after seeing the situation online, Jiang Wu stopped worrying.
