She arrived in Haishi on October 28th, and that evening Li Xin'er was trending on social media again.
However, this time it wasn't a scandal, but rather red carpet photos that went viral.
Her stunning beauty captivated everyone that night.
Her long, black, wavy hair, like seaweed, cascaded over her shoulders, making her skin appear as white as snow. She wore a black, high-slit evening gown with openwork lace trim, exuding exquisite and aloof beauty.
Wearing black high heels, her figure swayed gracefully with each step, her lips slightly upturned, exuding a cool, mysterious, and noble aura.
Li Xin'er didn't have time to check the news online; she only knew that Sister Xia was in a good mood when she called her.
I also told her to keep a low profile during her break and not to cause any trouble, as she has many scheduled activities to catch up on after these two months of rest...
Once she trended on social media for her red carpet appearance, she landed numerous endorsements from luxury brands.
Li Xin'er responded 'well-behavedly' to all of them.
She didn't stay in Haishi for long; she bought a ticket on the 29th and started her next journey to Province C.
Explore the ancient city, enjoy hot pot, see pandas...
With so many delicious foods, Li Xin'er had a blast and became hopelessly addicted to hot pot, eating it every single day during her stay in Province C.
Fortunately, the spiritual spring water helped her recover; otherwise, she might still be in the proctology department when the apocalypse came.
Then came the shopping spree. Hot pot ingredients were a must, because I loved them so much that I placed orders for 10,000 bags from each of five hot pot ingredient manufacturers.
She's stockpiled 50,000 bags of hot pot ingredients alone. If she takes one bag a day, she'll still have plenty to spare even if she lives to be a hundred.
Then there are various local specialties: cured meat, pickled vegetables, condiments (vinegar, broad bean paste, fermented bean curd, etc.), rice,
There's a saying that for every ten cups of tea in China, one comes from the tea mountains of Province C.
One in every ten pigs comes from province C.
For every 10 jin (5 catties) of rapeseed oil, 3 jin (1.5 catties) are extracted from rapeseed in Province C.
Of every 10 lemons and blood oranges, 7 are harvested from trees in Province C.
I've also stocked up on a lot of liquor, because the liquor from City C is definitely among the best in the country.
Cigarettes, alcohol, tea, and candy would all be luxuries in the apocalypse.
Buy, buy, buy!
Stock up!
Fortunately, all the houses, jewelry, and luxury goods she had listed for sale had already been sold off, and the money had all been deposited into her account—not much, just a few billion.
Now all she has left is the duplex apartment she lives in in S City, a small villa in a good location in Hai City, and more than a dozen cars in the garages on both sides.
These things will be dealt with after her domestic trip ends and before she goes abroad.
Both houses will definitely have to be sold; keeping them will only benefit others when the end of the world comes.
According to the original book, houses in good locations are enclosed within the base area, and regardless of whose house it is, it belongs to the base, which has absolute right to dispose of it.
You disagree? You're unwilling? Who cares about you!
That's the end of the world; might makes right.
If you live in a bad location, you'll have to put in the effort to defend yourself. You can't fight against many people, and life won't be so easy if you're separated from your community.
As for cars, Li Xin'er plans to choose the ones she likes to store, sell the others, and then stock up on cars abroad.
Armored vehicles, RVs, off-road tanks—she'd have to get her hands on some of them…
During her time in Province C, she kept a close eye on the changes in the Space Tower, gradually discovering patterns and identifying several issues.
The numbers on the door panel are a progress bar; as she collects and stores supplies in the basement, the number increases.
As for the exact rate of increase, she hasn't figured out the pattern yet.
I've tried many times, and it has nothing to do with the volume of the collected supplies, the quantity, or even their value...
Li Xin'er was so anxious and restless for several days that even eating hot pot three times a day couldn't calm her down.
She simply stopped thinking about it and told Ersha to keep an eye on the broken tower and let out a couple of howls to alert her if anything changed.
On November 12th, Li Xin'er, who had been in Province C for more than ten days, took a train to the plateau and successfully arrived in the city after a journey of thirty-six hours.
The scenery along the way was beautiful; those thirty-six hours were definitely worth it.
Snow-capped mountains and glaciers, lakes and forests, towering peaks and deep valleys, temples and palaces...
Play, play, play!
Cordyceps sinensis, matsutake mushrooms, yak jerky, saffron, Tibetan knives, stone pots, gastrodia elata, walnuts, Zhanang woolen fabric, red potatoes, highland barley...
Buy, buy, buy!
On November 20th, I flew back to S City from the plateau. As soon as I stepped into the house, my two silly friends started howling loudly in the room.
Li Xin'er had it keep an eye on the broken tower, which also broke the spatial shield, so she could hear any noise Ersha made in the space at any time.
Quickly lock the door, throw off your shoes and suitcase, and mentally check the space. The door to the broken tower is actually open!
Li Xin'er glanced around the room, made sure the curtains were closed, and then slipped into her spatial dimension.
"Awooooo~"
Upon seeing Li Xin'er, Er Sha jumped up from the ground with a start, shouting excitedly, like a ghost howling.
Li Xin'er glanced at the entrance to the tower, which had been restored to two wide-open wooden doors.
He stepped inside, and Ersha quickly followed.
"Awooooo!"
Ersha, who was blocked outside the door, cursed and swore.
Li Xin'er turned around and looked at him, somewhat surprised, and smiled:
"Wait outside."
But the smile didn't reach his eyes.
She didn't restrict Ersha from coming in, so it can only be this broken tower's doing.
From the moment she became conscious, everything in the space was under her control, except for this little dilapidated tower. It repeatedly exceeded her control, a feeling that made her very unhappy.
From the outside, it looked like an ordinary empty room, but once inside, the fog seemed to dissipate, revealing its true form.
