6 Chapter 6

"Ah Jie, Xiao Xiao! You're here!" Tong Songming's voice came from beside him. He had just finished modifying the RV's tires and was about to go out when he saw Tong Shu bringing Wang Jie and Qin Xiao Xiao in.

"Uncle!" Qin Xiaoxiao exclaimed, "What are you doing here!"

"Huh?" Tong Songming asked, puzzled. "Didn't Shushu tell you? Our whole family can come in. We were hoping you could talk to your parents about it."

"I...I said it..." Qin Xiaoxiao stammered. She just couldn't believe it yet.

Seeing that Wang Jie and Qin Xiaoxiao finally had no choice but to believe it, Tong Shu didn't say much and took them directly to their work stations.

The long-term task indicator showed that Tong Shu had completed another phase of the task, and she was awarded 1,000 Sen coins as a task reward.

Back in the real world, Wang Jie and Qin Xiaoxiao sat blankly on the sofa, Qin Xiaoxiao constantly biting the straw of her fruit tea.

"Bro, would you like some more Long Island Iced Tea?"

"No...no way," Wang Jie shook his head. "I still have to drive back, and I'll have to think about how to tell my parents on the way."

"That's not urgent," Tong Shu said. "The most important thing right now is, cousin, do you have any way to get the medicine?"

"medicine?"

"Yes, a lot of medicine. We need to unlock all the available medicine catalogs so that we have a guarantee if a disaster breaks out."

Wang Jie rested his chin on his hand and pondered, "I can call a pharmaceutical representative who has a long-term partnership with our hospital and tell him that my cousin is planning to open a pharmacy. I can ask him to send over the medicines according to the list. Xiao Xiao and I will compile the list."

"That would be great if it could be done like this!" Tong Shu was immediately delighted. With the medicine problem solved, everything else was relatively easy.

“But buying and selling medicine is no small matter, and it costs a lot of money. Do you have enough money?” Wang Jie asked.

Tong Shu said, "My dad and I calculated it, and we still have over a million left."

“Brother, my family will pay for this,” Qin Xiaoxiao said. “Since we’re all going to be fighting disasters and seeking refuge together, there’s no reason for Aunt’s family to pay. My dad has been farming all these years, but he’s saved up several hundred thousand yuan. I’ll sell the house in the next couple of days and make sure we buy all the medicine!”

Wang Jie blushed slightly: "Yes, I was only thinking about how to buy the medicine... You don't need to sell your house, my family has saved a lot of money, it should be enough together."

"Ugh!" Qin Xiaoxiao perked up again: "What's the point of keeping the house? Didn't you hear what Shushu said? Several buildings in the city center have collapsed! Our houses are all nearby, so it's possible they'll collapse the day the disaster starts. It's better to convert them into cash sooner and buy more supplies!"

Wang Jie thought about it and agreed. Everyone was going to Tong Shu's house to take refuge, so the house wasn't that important anymore.

"Okay, let's hurry home."

Qin Xiaoxiao jumped up from the sofa, said goodbye to Tong Shu's family, and then hurriedly left with Wang Jie.

"Dad, how's the tire modification going?" Tong Shu asked, remembering what her father had been busy with.

"It's all done." Tong Songming washed his hands. "The tire seemed to be of very good quality to begin with, and after the modification, it's said to have super buoyancy and super explosion-proof properties."

Tong Shu thought about it and figured it was probably because the car was made from materials from the island, so it came with special effects from the factory.

Wang Jie and Qin Xiaoxiao acted quickly. Since the house was registered in both their names and was located in the city center and a good school district, their parents hadn't even realized what was happening before the house was sold, and they had arranged to take possession of it in early July.

Ignoring their parents' crying and scolding, the two siblings got together and worked through the night to compile a list of medicines, ordering all the commonly used and uncommon medicines they could think of. For some of the medicines that were hard to find on the market, Wang Jie even asked his doctoral supervisor to find connections for him. Finally, they completed the purchase before the end of June.

During this time, Tong Shu's two aunts called Shu Hua several times, crying and saying that their child had suddenly gone crazy and sold the house to start a business, selling off the family business that she had worked hard for most of her life.

Shu Hua could only comfort her two older sisters and tentatively ask them if they wanted to come and stay at the Tong family's house first.

After thinking it over, Tong Shu's two aunts realized they had no choice but to rely on their sister for the time being, so they agreed to come over on the day the buyer took possession of the house.

Fortunately, Tong Shu's home is a small duplex, so there are enough guest rooms.

On July 5th, Tong Shu's two aunts moved into Tong Shu's house with their entire families, carrying large bags and small packages.

Wang Jie and Qin Xiaoxiao were very decisive. They told their families that they had packed up and sold all the furniture and appliances. They packed up and only brought some clothes and personal items with them.

What the aunts didn't know was that no sooner had they left the house than Tong Shu and her cousins ​​returned home and brought out all sorts of furniture and appliances to light up the catalog.

Since different brands and designs are different catalogs anyway, there's no harm in including them.

So after entering the Tong family home, the aunt and uncle still ignored their child, pretending not to see him.

Wang Jie and Qin Xiaoxiao also looked embarrassed.

They simply didn't have time to explain to their parents!

Tong Shu was helpless, but fortunately, the number of people in the know this time had reached a fairly substantial level.

It didn't take her long to get her four aunts and uncles to join the island's work team.

Uncle Wang Jianye: Clothing store clerk

Aunt Shuli: Tailor

Second Aunt Shuya: Restaurant Waitress

Second aunt's husband, Qin Jiaqiang: Farm manager

[Congratulations to the island owner on the growing team! Rewards: 5000 Forest Coins, 50 Magical Fabrics, and 1 copy of Xiuxiu's Costume Design Guide]

[Magic Fabric: Nini's magical fabric has been imbued with magic; different clothes made from it will have different magical effects!]

[Xiuxiu's Complete Collection of Costume Designs: The heirloom of Xiuxiu, the greatest costume designer on Komori Island! It records all of Xiuxiu's designs from her entire career, for tailor use only.]

[Congratulations, Island Owner! You have completed 69,021 items in your collection! You have received the following rewards: 10,000 Forest Coins, 1 Buto's First Aid Kit, and 10 Super Backpacks]

[Bhuto's Personal First Aid Kit: The personal first aid kit of the island's renowned doctor Bhuto, enhanced by Nini's magic, is forever dust-free and sterile, allowing you to administer an injection to a patient anytime, anywhere!]

[Super Backpack: A backpack imbued with time-space magic, where time is frozen and the space is a full 10 cubic meters! Once bound, it can only be used by the user.]

A wave of rewards left Tong Shu feeling dizzy.

With her exceptional understanding gained from years of gaming, she quickly allocated the rewards.

Each person received a super backpack, so they could survive if they got separated. Tong Shu didn't bring a separate backpack, since her backpack allowed her to retrieve items from various parts of the island at any time, and her supplies could be stored at the island villa.

Tong Shu gave Shu Li a complete guide to clothing design and asked her to find some design blueprints for anti-radiation clothing. She suggested that she could use some special fabric to make a few sets of anti-radiation clothing, which would undoubtedly provide an extra layer of protection for everyone's survival.

The first aid kit was undoubtedly given to Wang Jie. Wang Jie immediately opened it and examined it. It contained not only some small equipment and medicines, but also a set of acupuncture needles. Surprisingly, although Wang Jie was a Western doctor, he knew how to use the needles the moment he picked them up.

For the next period of time, everyone was busy checking for omissions and filling in gaps, seeing which illustrations had not yet been unlocked.

Shuli lived up to expectations, creating a radiation protection suit shaped like a windproof jacket and pants. When Tong Shu tried it on, she couldn't help but marvel at how, despite being long-sleeved and long-legged, it wasn't hot at all. She even put on the hat and went for a walk outside without getting sunburned.

Tong Songming kept shuttling between the island and his home, using the collected materials to tinker and modify the doors, windows, floors, walls, and other parts of his home.

After all, I designed this house myself. If I'm lucky, the house won't collapse, and I can come back and continue living here.
