Chapter 013 Chapter 13

The first step on the way out was to be stopped at the mezzanine floor.

The blizzard had already blocked the first floor. If you want to get out, you have to break through the snow yourself.

Ji Yang carried a mountaineering bag to hide herself from others. Even though she knew that there was a power outage across the country and cameras were useless, she still carefully took out a folding ordnance shovel from the bag and shoveled the snow away bit by bit.

Xixi looked at her movements, let out a roar, and threw herself into the snow.

Seeing that it was having fun, Ji Yang ignored it and dug a hole that she could pass through. She then left the snow behind her and quickly blocked the hole again.

Afterwards, she took the oxygen cylinder and dug out a small hole for breathing. She used the ordnance shovel in her hand as a medium to throw a lump of ice and snow into the space with each blow, and her efficiency increased immediately.

Xixi was running around in the snow, appearing in front of Ji Yang from time to time.

They have adapted well to this extremely cold climate.

But after half an hour, Xixi couldn't bear it anymore. She had no mood to jump around anymore. She just clung to Ji Yang closely, her calves trembling.

Ji Yang understood. The puppy hadn't come out yet and its fur had not grown enough in the warm room. She stretched out her hand and sent the puppy into the space.

This was not Xixi's first time to come to the space, and the place he went to was still the sheepfold. He was very familiar with these things, almost engraved in his bones. After he recovered from the chill, he immediately circled around the four sheep proudly, as if checking their condition.

After confirming that she was of no use for the time being, Xixi found a corner to lie down.

Ji Yang, relying on the blessing of space, moved away from Jiafu Community and came to the first stop - a supermarket one kilometer away from Jiafu Community.

The supermarket is on the second floor, and the first floor is home to various jewelry stores selling gold, silver, and jade.

After breaking through the snow layer and going in, we found that the door of the supermarket had been broken long ago, and the snow had spread inside. Because people who were stocking up on goods were coming and going, the place was trampled all over, and it looked very dirty.

However, due to heavy snow, the jewelry store staff had not come to work for a long time and all the shops were closed. For safety reasons, Ji Yang did not act immediately, but walked around the entire mall first.

She didn't find anyone until she reached the top layer, so she went back to the snow layer and released Xixi.

The scene suddenly changed. Xixi immediately stood up and looked around vigilantly. After seeing Ji Yang, she came over with her tail wagging.

Ji Yang rubbed its head and said, "Stay here and call out if anyone comes. Got it?"

"Woof!" Xixi responded softly.

Ji Yang felt relieved and took out the pry tools to pry the door open.

The alarms had long been out of power, but it still took only a minute or two to pry open the first door. This was all thanks to the experience she had accumulated in her previous life in order to survive.

But in the next second, Ji Yang's heart sank.

It was her first time doing such a thing, and what greeted her was an empty display case!

Ji Yang almost went berserk!

Is it possible that her space cannot be upgraded in the early stage? !

But the next second, she suddenly remembered something, and looked around without giving up. Finally, she locked the cabinet behind the cash register. She didn't have the key, so she just used an axe to chop it open. The cabinet opened and there were safes inside.

The safe is built-in.

She tried to pull it, but couldn't pull it out. Fortunately, she had considered a similar situation before, so she took out the cutting machine she had prepared, put on the tools, and started working.

"Buzz——" a harsh sound rang out.

Ji Yang was shocked, but fortunately the safe was not so indestructible and a hole was quickly cut in it, revealing the things inside.

There were boxes of collected jewellery!

In order to save time, Ji Yang chose a store that specialized in selling jade jewelry. He didn't even need to look at it at the moment. He just received it directly into the space, and immediately the space... didn't respond.

Ji Yang was silent.

It seems that the batch she got is not of very good quality.

Never mind, there are still a bunch!

Next, Ji Yang worked without stopping for a moment. He finished one safe in almost three to five minutes and opened all the safes.

Finally, the last safe was opened and the things were stored in the space. The space was expanded again... fifty square meters.

Right next to the breeding area.

It was still the same as before, all dark brown land, and nothing else.

Fortunately, she had previously surrounded the breeding area with fences, so now that the space was expanded, they couldn't escape.

There is only one store that specializes in selling jade in this mall, and the other shops sell a mix of gold, silver and jewelry. Ji Yang did not choose to pry open the doors of other stores, as that would be too troublesome and the amount of jade he would get would be very small.

Just go straight to the next destination.

It was just too cold now. Ji Yang's hands and feet were already cold after working so hard for so long, so he took out a gas stove and a small milk pot from his backpack and cooked himself a bowl of instant noodles.

It is the most convenient, quickest and also warms your stomach.

The instant noodles were from Lord Tang's family. They were light in taste but fragrant. Ji Yang finished the noodles and soup one mouthful at a time. Beads of sweat appeared on the tip of his nose. He quickly wiped them clean and put the things into his bag, actually into the space. He put Xixi back into the space, put on a white cloak to cover his body, and took out a snowmobile.

Having not used these things for a long time, Ji Yang was unfamiliar with them and studied them for a while before he could open them successfully.

With a loud bang, the snowmobile flew out, splashing countless snowflakes.

——

When it comes to buying for free, you’ll become familiar with it the second time you do it.

With a snowmobile again, the efficiency was even higher this time. In just ten minutes, Ji Yang arrived at the second destination.

The cutting machine was taken out and Xixi stood guard.

Ji Yang acted quickly and cleared out the store in just an hour. This time the space was expanded by another 50 square meters.

Ji Yang frowned in dissatisfaction. These pieces were still not good enough. She guessed that the better ones were in the deeper warehouses. After all, she bought jewelry herself, which cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. The jewelry left by her grandparents were no more expensive than that.

But generally speaking, most of the jewelry in these stores is worth thousands or tens of thousands. Hundreds of thousands are already very expensive, and those worth millions or tens of millions are not necessarily available in stock.

There is even a brand premium and a craftsmanship premium.

Therefore, the inventory in a store increases by 50 square meters.

Given the circumstances, I can only work harder.

Ji Yang comforted himself and continued to move on to the next destination.

These places were all noted down when she was stockpiling cooked food in the last few days. She was familiar with the routes. By five o'clock in the afternoon, when it was dark and she was too cold to bear it, she quickly drove her snowmobile back.

There was no one in sight along the way.

When they arrived near Jiafu Community, Ji Yang found a corner, put away the motorcycle, and went in again along the passage he had taken when he went out.

I went all the way to the fifteenth floor, but still didn't see anyone.

It was too cold, and even if someone heard the noise, they were reluctant to come out to check.

When she got home and opened the door, the warm air that hit her face made her feel alive.

Quickly adding more firewood to the two fireplaces, Ji Yang let Xixi out as well. It had worked really hard today, so he gave it a big bowl of meat for dinner so that it could eat its fill!

Ji Yang went into the space to take a shower.

Originally she took a shower in her room, but now her space has expanded to 350 square meters, 100 square meters of which is used to raise poultry, leaving 250 square meters, which is enough to accommodate the mobile house she bought before. Her house only occupies 120 square meters.

The house has been installed with water and electricity, and there is a water tower on the roof for storing water. She deliberately chose a very large water tower that can store one thousand liters of water at a time. In fact, there are even larger ones, but she was afraid that the house could not bear the weight, so she compromised.

There are no underground pipes for drainage.

Ji Yang was still a little hesitant, so instead of using the water tower directly, he took a bath in a bathtub.

The temperature in the space is just right. The only downside is that it is too quiet. Although there are some sounds of poultry moving around, that's all. There is no sound of wind, birds, or any other sounds.

Ji Yang actually didn’t like staying here for a long time. She always felt terrified that she was the only one left in the world.

It just so happened that she was living in a disaster era, and this situation might come true, so she disliked it even more.

Therefore, Ji Yang only planned to take a shower here. The water pipes at home were frozen, so he couldn't use the shower head. The temperature was too low and taking a shower was also cold. This space was the most suitable.

She doesn't go to the space for other things, such as eating and sleeping. Even though this world is very dangerous, she still likes it.

After taking a hot shower, Ji Yang did not fold up the house this time. He would take a shower here from now on.

As for going to the toilet, the water in the toilet had frozen long before the water outage and could not be flushed, so Ji Yang simply switched to cat litter.

I guess other people in the community just dumped the garbage outside, but most of them had a sense of public morality and didn't dump it right in front of them. Even if there was heavy snow from time to time, it would quickly cover the garbage and not attract attention.

Just wait for the snow to melt. Only those living on the bottom floor can understand how disgusting it is.

There was still some meat left in Xixi's food bowl. Looking at its belly, it was round and bulging, so it probably couldn't eat any more.

The little guy has never been hungry, so he won’t eat desperately.

Ji Yang didn't care. She would eat it after it was digested. She was so tired that she was too lazy to blow-dry her hair. The air was dry anyway, so it would dry in a while.

She curled up on the sofa, scanned the space with her consciousness, and then brought out a hot bowl of tomato and beef brisket rice and started eating.

She poured the salty and sour soup on the rice, stirred it, and put it into her mouth. As soon as the tip of her tongue touched it, her mouth began to water and her appetite increased wildly.

After taking another bite of the tender stewed beef and feeling the warm food slowly entering her stomach, she finally felt relaxed.

The world is big, but eating is the most important thing.

Food means survival.

While eating, Ji Yang was thinking about how to plan for the vacant space next.

The breeding area must be expanded again, otherwise there will not be enough when these guys grow up. Moreover, she has recently read some knowledge about breeding and learned that pigs can reproduce in six months, but for health reasons, farmers usually wait until eight months or one year old to start breeding.

That is to say, for this group of little guys, the males and females need to be raised separately for a while.

Ji Yang thought about it, then sprinkled grass seeds on one hundred square meters of the area, and then surrounded it with a fence, leaving thirty square meters of open space that could be used for planting.

Picking out Chinese cabbage from a pile of seeds, she consciously controlled the seeds and scattered them. Following the instructions in the tutorial, she covered them with a thin layer of soil and then left them alone.

She actually wanted to build a pond.

This way she could raise some fish and shrimp, especially hairy crabs and crayfish, as well as various freshwater fish, all of which she liked, but unfortunately, she had just tried to pour the bath water into the soil, and it was instantly absorbed, leaving nothing behind.

The soil that has absorbed water is a little moister than before, but that's all.

Under normal circumstances, such a large basin of water will leave at least a small puddle, and it will take a while for the soil to absorb all the water.

Therefore, Ji Yang speculated that it might be impossible to build a pond in this space, or it might have fresh water or even sea water areas.

All I can do is feed it as much jade as possible.

Ji Yang is quite looking forward to it. He wonders what this space will evolve into.
