Shen Xiaobei was already 99.99% certain that she didn’t have much time left.
The day before yesterday, she "dreamed" for 10 hours, the day before yesterday was 11 hours, the day before yesterday was 12 hours, and yesterday was 13 hours.
According to this rule of increasing her body and will by one hour a day, the number of days she still has limited freedom to control her body and will should only be ten days left.
She didn't want to take any more chances.
Stock up! Stock up! Stock up!
Shen Xiaobei immediately got up and washed up briefly. From the pile of cosmetics, she casually picked up a lipstick and applied two layers on her lips, which looked pale, to make herself look more energetic.
Then he immediately went downstairs and drove to the outskirts of the city, and quickly rented an idle old warehouse.
After getting the warehouse key from the landlord, he went to a grain and oil wholesale department.
"Boss, this, this, and this. We need 20 bags of each of these three kinds of rice, 50 jin each. That's 3,000 jin in total. And 2,000 jin of flour, all in 50 jin bags."
"Okay, pretty! You bought so much rice and flour at once. Did you contract the canteen of some school? You've probably never come to me to do your shopping before, have you? How about we add each other on WeChat?"
"Haha, no, I didn't contract the cafeteria for any school. I did contract the cafeteria for a garment factory."
When Shen Xiaobei heard the words of the boss of the grain and oil wholesale department, he paused, smiled and told a little lie.
The boss was a middle-aged man who was a little overweight. He was very enthusiastic and took the opportunity to chat with her.
Shen Xiaobei didn't want to chat any more, let alone add WeChat with him, because she would not come here again in the future.
After saying a few perfunctory words, she got down to business.
"Boss, we have rice vermicelli and noodles, thick, thin, flat, round, and in various flavors. I want 100 kilograms of each."
"There are also soybeans, red beans, mung beans, white sugar, brown sugar, rock sugar, white fungus, mushrooms, red dates, kelp, peanuts, etc., each of which also needs 100 kilograms."
"And these cooking oils, peanut, corn, rapeseed... in big barrels, 30 barrels of each. Oh, and sesame oil, in small bottles, 100 bottles."
"Oh, and salt, 200 bags. Also, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, aged vinegar, white vinegar, MSG, chicken bouillon, tomato sauce, chili sauce, soybean paste, sesame paste... 100 bottles each. And those bagged condiments, 100 bags each as well."
"Hmm... rice, noodles, oil, seasonings, and dry goods, everything's here! Uh... let me take a closer look, is there anything missing?"
"Well, it seems that's all! Boss, that's all I said just now!"
"Oh, okay!"
The boss was so happy to receive such a big order that he couldn't stop smiling. He immediately started to prepare the goods with two shop assistants.
It took two or three hours to complete the inventory and load everything into a truck.
Shen Xiaobei drove her own car in front to lead the way, and the guy from the wholesale department followed her in a truck. After two round trips, they finally pulled all the supplies to the old warehouse she had just rented.
After all the supplies were stacked into the warehouse and the door was locked, she watched the guy drive away in the truck, with no one passing by, and then she said something silently in her heart.
Then, all the supplies in the warehouse were automatically transferred to her personal space without anyone noticing.
Shen Xiaobei has a portable space for storing things.
This space cannot store living things, but can store anything that can fit in it without expiring or spoiling.
This is her secret.
No one in the world knows except herself.
In addition to this secret, she also has another secret that makes her feel very strange and puzzled.
More than a month ago, her father, who loved playing mahjong, went to the mahjong hall to play mahjong all night. When the game was about to end, he suddenly suffered a cerebral hemorrhage at the table.
After receiving the call, she immediately drove back to her hometown county to see her father for the last time.
Angry at his father's lack of fighting spirit and saddened by his misfortune, he arranged his father's funeral together with his uncles, aunts, and cousins.
After the funeral, when cleaning up the things in his father's room, Shen Xiaobei found an old but exquisitely carved red wooden box in the corner of a wooden cabinet.
She had never seen this wooden box at home before.
He opened it and took a look, and found that inside was a red agate bracelet that looked a bit old.
An artistic word is engraved on the inner wall of the bracelet.
Fortunately, she had been practicing calligraphy in elementary and middle school, so she recognized that the word was "梦" written in small seal script.
Shen Xiaobei's mother's name contains the word "dream", but her mother died of illness when she was five years old, and she has almost no memory of her.
"Could this be something my mother used to wear?"
She was a little confused. Why did her father collect such an old bracelet?
She grew up with her grandmother and father, but her father loved playing cards and was often not at home, so he rarely took care of her.
Their relationship as father and daughter has never been very close.
During her freshman year, her 87-year-old grandmother passed away. Every time she went home during the holidays, the house was cold and desolate because her father was always out playing cards.
Over the years, her feelings towards him were more of implicit contempt and disappointment than respect and love.
But when she saw that there was a bracelet hidden in her father's room, which might be her mother's relic, she found that the negative emotions she had towards her father seemed to disappear in an instant.
What followed was a feeling of sighing and sadness for him, and a longing that she was not willing to admit openly.
