"Second Young Master, what should we do? Should we go and snatch all these supplies back now?" Uncle Zhou asked cautiously.
Zhou Haiyuan's expression was uncertain as he recalled the horrific scene of the last attack on the shelter.
Ever since that crushing defeat, he had been keeping an eye on Ye Ning's situation and knew that she had also built up her own power base, and that it was developing very quickly.
Attacking them now would definitely be even more troublesome.
Most importantly, although he has now officially taken over Xinyuan Group.
However, after the apocalypse arrived, the original order began to collapse, and the old guys in the group also began to become restless and secretly developed their own power behind the scenes.
Although they outwardly obeyed him, they each harbored their own ulterior motives.
If they cause any trouble while he's attacking Ye Ning's shelter, it will be a loss for them.
"We definitely need to get them back, but now isn't the best time!"
Once he's dealt with those old men, he'll settle the score with them properly.
Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen returned to the shelter safely.
"Jingchen, do you think Zhou Haiyuan will find out that we did this?" Ye Ning asked with some concern.
"It's not a matter of whether they will or won't, it's that they will definitely find out!" Xiao Jingchen said nonchalantly. He could deliberately leave no trace, he wasn't afraid of them finding out.
"Then how should we deal with this, Mr. Xiao? Should we go back now and make some preparations?" Brother Long Fei asked with some concern.
"No need! No need to deal with it. I'm not afraid they won't come knocking on my door."
Ye Ning hasn't avenged her past life's grudges yet! If they come knocking on her door, this is the perfect opportunity to collect all the debts they owe.
As soon as the helicopter landed, Aunt Wang and Uncle Liu rushed over.
"Miss, Young Master Xiao! Where have you both been? You haven't come back all night, and we almost thought something had happened to you!" Wang Ma said with a worried expression.
"It's alright! Aunt Wang, we're just going out for a bit. With Jingchen here, nothing will happen!" Ye Ning jumped off the helicopter.
"Oh right! Aunt Wang, cook us all a late-night snack. We've been busy all night and are a little hungry!" Ye Ning said, pulling Xiao Jingchen's hand as she yawned and returned to the living area.
Twenty minutes later, the steaming hot wontons were served on the table.
"The weather is getting colder and colder, the second snowfall is coming soon!" Ye Ning looked at the fine snowflakes outside, like sprinkled salt.
"No matter what, we've really had a great harvest this time. With this batch of supplies, we'll have more than enough for ten years, or even fifty." Ye Ning stretched and skipped like a young girl to sit down at the dining table.
"Eat up! It won't taste good if it gets cold!" Xiao Jingchen pushed the wontons in front of Ye Ning, his face full of doting affection.
He remembered that when he and Ye Ning were in school, Wang Ma would always serve them a bowl of wontons as a late-night snack every winter evening after they came back from self-study.
Then he and Ye Ning finished eating and went to sleep. In his past life, on many cold nights, he would dream of the time when he and Ye Ning ate wontons together.
Looking at Ye Ning's somewhat blurred face behind the rising steam, this must be what they call the warmth and comfort of everyday life.
"Mmm! So delicious!" Ye Ning took a bite of a wonton. "Wang Ma's cooking is still exactly the same as before. Jing Chen, you should eat too!"
"Hmm! By the way! Jingchen, guess what I found in the smallest warehouse this time?" Ye Ning said mysteriously.
"What?" Xiao Jingchen looked at Ye Ning with great interest.
"Energy extractor!" Ye Ning exclaimed with delight, then took out the energy extractor from her spatial storage.
Energy pills are the hard currency of the superpower era. Now that we have an energy extractor, we no longer need to waste resources exchanging them with others.
"Jingchen, why aren't you surprised at all?"
"No! I'm quite surprised." Xiao Jingchen quickly showed a surprised expression.
In fact, he had already received information from Uncle Yun that there was an energy extractor at Warehouse No. 1.
"Ugh! Jingchen, your acting is terrible!" Ye Ning pouted. "Jingchen, tell me the truth, did you already know this all along?"
Xiao Jingchen nodded honestly.
After finishing her late-night snack, it was already past midnight, and Ye Ning kept yawning.
"Alright! Let's go to sleep first! We can discuss the energy extractor tomorrow!"
"Okay!" Ye Ning yawned, changed into her pajamas, lay down on the bed, and quickly fell asleep.
The next day, Ye Ning got up early.
First, she gathered Lei Siming and his group, and then took out the energy extractor from her spatial storage.
Lei Siming was completely mesmerized the moment he saw the energy extractor.
A group of people were studying the energy extractor.
It wasn't until dark that the first energy pill was finally extracted from the energy extractor.
"No, the purity is too low! It must be an operational problem. I'll have to study it again tomorrow!" Xiao Jingchen checked and found that the extracted energy pills were not very complete.
Over the next few days, Xiao Jingchen and his team studied the energy extractor. After a week, they finally extracted energy pills of the required purity.
Although the extraction speed is slow, it can be gradually improved in the future.
Ye Ning has been sorting and classifying the supplies she received from Xinyuan Group these past few days.
The first large warehouse was almost entirely filled with food: fast food, compressed food, and all sorts of daily necessities, salt, sugar, vacuum-packed food, chocolate, compressed biscuits, and various canned goods.
In addition, there are also many daily necessities, such as soap, alcohol, batteries, and flashlights.
The second warehouse contained all sorts of warm clothing, including tens of thousands of pairs of wool socks. There were also specially made winter coats, clearly not comparable to ordinary winter coats on the market.
Because Xinyuan Group had heard some rumors before the end of the world, it made quite comprehensive preparations.
The third warehouse was filled with building materials, and even aerospace materials, not much different from the materials Ye Ning used to build the shelter. This was a real lifesaver, as Ye Ning was planning to expand the shelter area as well.
New facilities are being built on Gaofeng's side, so all these building materials can be used now.
While Ye Ning was busy with her own affairs, Li Churan was also not idle, as she was about to welcome a new batch of guests.
