After saying that, she rode away on her bicycle.

Zhou Xiangqun glared fiercely at Jiang Pengyue.

It's all her fault.

An adopted daughter stole the affections of the real heiress, causing the fiancée to be unable to return home.

With resentment building up in his heart, he grew to hate Jiang Pengyue more and more.

Jiang Pengyue felt a chill run through her heart.

The joy of receiving the marriage certificate suddenly became worthless. It seemed that there was no longer the expected elation, only a sense of melancholy.

After leaving the registration office, Xu Manzhi went to a town outside the Haicheng Military Region.

She didn't like the red shirt she was wearing; it was too eye-catching.

So, at the supply and marketing cooperative in the city, she specifically bought a white shirt, a shovel, a knife, and several burlap sacks...

She only spent about 30 yuan in the whole transaction.

The supply and marketing cooperative's counter was filled with a dazzling array of tools, food, and various daily necessities. Judging from the price tags and receipts, the five hundred yuan that Jiang Pengyue bribed her could actually buy a lot of things.

Wow.

The receipt is more powerful than a steamed bun.

This world is amazing.

She wanted... tickets with portraits printed on them.

Especially a group of people.

The more the better.

After changing her clothes in the small room of the supply and marketing cooperative, Xu Manzhi immediately sold the red shirt and received a banknote marked ten yuan...

Not bad, not bad.

She recalled the table, chairs, cabinets, and a room full of books and small boxes in the Jiang family's house... it seemed like they could be sold for a lot of money.

In an instant, it was as if her Ren and Du meridians had been opened.

A scene she had never seen before took root in her heart.

Very good.

Xu Manzhi rode her bicycle all the way to the small town she had visited before.

As soon as I entered, I heard several women chatting.

"Waaaaah, I'm so happy! There haven't been any snakes coiled around the eaves lately."

"You know what, you really can't believe it, my son was bitten by a snake while taking a bath, and we didn't see a single snake yesterday."

"That's right. It's strange, really. There's a lot of grass behind the town, and snakes and insects roam around there. It's the most dangerous place. The snake-catching team has gone there a few times, but it didn't work. Who did this?"

"Whoever it is, I thank him!"

"Right now, there are wild boars—"

Wild boar?

Xu Manzhi's ears perked up instantly.

She had only ever seen small ditches and furry animals before, never... a wild boar.

This animal is extremely ferocious.

Old Xu once said that wild boars eat people. After the apocalypse, animal genes mutated, and wild boars became short, skin and bones with little meat, but their attack power increased exponentially. They are also social animals, so it is very dangerous to step into their territory.

but--

Danger and opportunity coexist.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Before the apocalypse, wild boars, fed on lush grass, might have had tender and juicy meat...

Splash!

The thought of tender pork made Xu Manzhi's mouth water. She couldn't resist any longer, so she locked her bicycle next to the town's post office and set off into the mountains with her tools.

Wild boar, wild boar, your great-aunt is here to patrol the mountain!

Be a good boy/girl.

Little piggy, come here quickly~
