A gentle breeze lifted the curtains, and sunlight streamed through the gaps, falling on Jiang Yao's face. The sunlight was warm, and the breeze was gentle.
Wait, the sunlight! Jiang Yao suddenly opened her eyes. I'm not dreaming.
It was real sunshine, the sounds of children playing downstairs, and cicadas chirping in the trees... When I came to my senses, what came into view was the house I lived in before the apocalypse.
The room's furnishings and the posters on the walls were all so familiar yet incredible.
She looked at the calendar on the table, which showed August 1, 2323, four months before the apocalypse.
I opened the refrigerator, picked up a bottle of mineral water, and drank it. During those two years of natural disasters, there were constant natural disasters, extreme cold, storms, extreme heat, torrential rain, earthquakes, and other meteorological disasters, and there was an extreme shortage of living supplies.
With mutations in animals and plants, and viral infections in humans, simply living has become a luxury.
At first, everyone thought it was just a cold wave, and no one knew that it was just the beginning of an extreme cold spell.
The extreme cold lasted for a full six months, so Jiang Yao still had a lot to do in the next four months.
The first thing to do is to sell the two villas in the suburbs and the 200-square-meter house in the city center, and also sell the shares in these properties.
Jiang Yao picked up the phone and contacted Shenhong Real Estate. She said, "I have two villas in the suburbs and a 200-square-meter house in Hongding Huafu in the city center. I hope to sell these three houses as soon as possible, even if it's 10% below market price."
The real estate agent hesitated for a moment. Was this guy out of his mind? Such a good place, and he wanted to lower the price? But if there was money to be made, he didn't want to meddle. He smiled and said, "Okay, Ms. Jiang."
Jiang Yao hung up the phone and went to Jiang's Group Co., Ltd.
Upon arriving at the Jiang Group, we went straight to President Jiang's office on the 13th floor.
Upon seeing his second uncle, he went straight to the point: "Second Uncle, I urgently need money and want to sell my 45% stake in the Jiang family."
"If you're interested, I can sell it to you for a friendly price of 2.1 billion. If you're not interested, then I'll have to contact a tech company to sell it to."
Jiang Sheng was quite surprised. "Hey, is Jiang Yao out of her mind?! Selling it to me for 2.1 billion at a 'friendship price'? You know, Jiang Yao's shares are worth far more than that! Sure enough, a woman can't accomplish anything significant; she doesn't understand anything!"
Jiang Sheng replied without hesitation, "Okay, 2.1 billion it is." "Shall we have Attorney Zhang bring the transfer contract over now?"
After the transfer agreement was signed and the money was received, Jiang Yao began to plan and prepare to stockpile supplies.
Her gaze fell on the jade bracelet on her wrist. She remembered that in her previous life, Jiang Xue borrowed the bracelet that her grandmother had left her from her. Not long after, a natural disaster struck. At that time, when everyone was starving and fighting for a piece of clothing, Jiang Sheng's family was well-fed and clothed.
This made Jiang Yao wonder if such a thing as a spatial dimension really existed.
After returning home, Jiang Yao, on a whim, pricked her finger with a needle. The moment a drop of blood fell onto the bracelet, she discovered a large space in front of her, though she didn't know exactly how much she could put in it.
Jiang Yao chuckled foolishly. With this space, she could hoard everything she wanted and just relax and win.
Jiang Yao first contacted a manufacturer to order 100 sets of down comforters and 500 sets of bedding for all seasons, so that they could be easily washed when there was no water.
Disposable pure cotton underwear, sports bras, bras, and socks in various sizes for men and women.
We need 300 pieces each of men's and women's windbreakers, all-season sportswear, and thermal cotton-padded clothes. Please contact us by phone to arrange delivery to the designated warehouse within one month.
Next, plan the list of supplies to be purchased at the wholesale and retail market the next day, including windproof lighters, matches, flashlights, rechargeable desk lamps, candles, kerosene lamps, alcohol lamps, hand warmers, outdoor tents, sleeping bags, air mattresses, soap, laundry detergent, instant noodles, sausages, cooked food, rice, flour, oil, and various seasonings.
Jiang Yao sat on the sofa, stretching and looking at the moonlight outside. She thought about how terrifying human nature could become when the extreme cold arrived. People would even harm pregnant women and the elderly just for a bite to eat.
Thinking about the extreme cold, extreme heat, and torrential rain, she needed to find a place to take shelter and build a safe haven... As she thought about these things, Jiang Yao slowly fell asleep.
When Jiang Yao woke up in the morning, she was still somewhat unwilling to believe that she had really been reborn.
After a quick breakfast, I picked up my shopping list and began my shopping spree.
Arriving at the underground parking garage, looking at the rows of Lamborghinis, Bentleys, Rolls-Royces, and Maybachs, I couldn't help but feel sorry that these cars would be submerged in water and totaled during the rainy season.
However, the gasoline can be extracted before the extreme cold arrives, since gasoline is difficult to store.
I found my own Mini i3 among them and drove to the most famous wholesale market in the country.
Before arriving at the Zheshi Trade Wholesale Market, we rented a truck nearby.
Since I had already rented four large warehouses of 450 square meters each in different locations online for receiving goods, I could just go directly to the grain and oil wholesale area.
Arriving at a rice shop, I negotiated with the owner to order 5,000 portions of each of the following types of rice: 50 jin, 20 jin, 10 jin, and 2 jin. These are all Northeast crab-field rice varieties.
500 portions of each type of white flour, 5000 packets of long-grain spice, and 2000 boxes each of 4-liter barrels of corn oil, soybean oil, peanut oil, and olive oil. When the boss asks, you can say it's for the factory's employee benefits, and also to purchase supplies for the canteen.
