The opening theme song of the evening news program began to play.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Bai Xizhu calmly took out her phone and answered the call.
"Hello? Uh-huh, okay, got it."
Bai Xizhu answered with her phone and then handed it to her grandmother, Liu Jing.
It was Bai Anhai calling. He said the rented warehouse was full and asked Bai Xizhu to go over and store the supplies in the space.
"Okay! Got it, you guys get back to work!"
Liu Jing and Bai Anhai chatted briefly before hanging up the phone.
"Sis, your ringtone is so...righteous!"
Bai Yifan couldn't help but complain.
"That voice makes me feel at ease!" Bai Xizhu put her phone in her pocket. "I'm going to the warehouse now. You take good care of Grandpa and Grandma at home!"
"Don't worry, I'm here!"
Bai Yifan patted his chest!
"Xiao Zhu, drive carefully and tell your parents to come back early. Grandpa will make you some stewed pork ribs!"
Bai Zhengxuan smiled and said to Bai Xizhu.
"good!"
Bai Xizhu's eyes lit up.
Three years into the apocalypse, who still eats pork ribs?
Bai Xizhu gave Bai Yifan a few more brief instructions and then left.
Bai Anhai drove away the family car, so Bai Xizhu had to take a taxi to the warehouse that her family rented.
The rented warehouse is some distance from the residential area, in the suburbs, where there are few people, but the transportation is convenient and trucks can easily come by.
It took about an hour for the taxi to finally stop in front of a simple warehouse.
Wang Yiyun was waiting in front of the warehouse. As soon as she saw Bai Xizhu coming over, she quickly waved.
"Xiao Zhu, over here!"
Wang Yiyun looked at Bai Xizhu with a smile, always feeling that her daughter was quiet and beautiful, much more likable than the brat!
"Mom, the warehouse you rented is huge!"
Bai Xizhu stared in disbelief at the warehouse that covered nearly 500 square meters in front of her.
"This place is in the suburbs, so the price is cheap. It only costs a few thousand yuan for three months."
As Wang Yiyun spoke, she handed Bai Xizhu a small box.
The small box is made of wood and is exquisitely designed to resemble a pendant, with a cute pink bunny on the surface.
Open the small wooden box; it was filled with needles.
The needle is about the same size as a regular needle, but unlike a regular needle, it does not have a hole for threading and is also harder than a regular needle.
Bai Xizhu took out a piece, tried to bend it, and managed to bend it a little.
“This needle is specially made; your dad had many made.”
Wang Yiyun pulled Bai Xizhu into the warehouse and spoke to her in a low voice.
Bai Xizhu pinched the needle with her fingers, and a layer of frost instantly formed on the surface of the needle.
Then the needle floated up and shot suddenly toward a large tree to the side.
Bang!
A very faint sound came as the needle sank completely into the tree, leaving only a tiny hole.
Bai Xizhu narrowed her eyes slightly, and the needle was pulled out of the tree again, returning to Bai Xizhu's hand intact.
Bai Xizhu glanced at the surface of the needle; the needle tip had not deformed despite being encased in frost.
The combination of control-type and ice-type abilities allows one to unleash the full power of even a tiny needle.
"She truly is my daughter!"
Wang Yiyun watched Bai Xizhu's actions with a shining gaze, almost ready to applaud.
Bai Xizhu smiled and put the needles back into the small wooden box, then hung the box on her waist and carried it with her.
Enter the warehouse.
A truck was parked at the entrance of the warehouse, and it was already completely full.
Bai Anhai was unloading things from the truck, his shirt soaked with sweat, but he kept moving goods.
To prevent anyone from discovering the supplies inside, Bai Anhai specifically rented a truck and mostly picked up the goods from the suppliers himself.
"Dad, I can just put it into my spatial storage; you don't need to move it downstairs."
Bai Xizhu quickly stopped Bai Anhai, who was working.
"Okay, Xiao Zhu is still the best!"
Bai Anhai got off the truck and pointed to two large boxes placed to the side.
"One box contains needles, and the other contains knives. That way, we won't be completely unarmed!"
The box was huge, easily large enough to fit Bai Xizhu inside. Bai Xizhu opened the box, and inside were neatly arranged needles.
It's close to 100,000, if not 100,000.
The other box contained longswords that had been sharpened. The swords were thin and light, making them perfect for holding as weapons.
They had not only long swords, but also short daggers.
Bai Xizhu felt very reassured just looking at the two boxes of weapons.
Bai Xizhu waved her hand and put the two boxes into her spatial storage first.
"Honey, is there anything else we're missing?"
Bai Anhai pointed generously to the warehouse that was now completely filled.
All I could see were supplies.
There were stacks and stacks of toilet paper alone.
Various condiments and cooking oils were also displayed in boxes and boxes.
Hundreds of bags of rice and flour were neatly arranged.
I bought a lot of snacks, especially candies and chocolates, which were everywhere.
These supplies are enough to feed a family for several years!
"That's about enough. Let's buy some more cigarettes, alcohol, and clothes. We don't need to stock up on rice, flour, and various vegetables anymore; there are plenty of seeds in the space."
Bai Xizhu pondered for a moment.
Staple foods and vegetables can be grown in the space.
That's all the supplies we have in this area.
If people hoard large amounts of food without any regard for their own safety, then people outside will have no means to survive.
However, cigarettes, alcohol, and clothes are indispensable.
Tobacco and alcohol can be used as capital for exchanging goods in the apocalypse.
