"No, no, no! Let's put this plan on hold for now!" Even if he could get more supplies, what good would it do? He couldn't just transport them directly to H country.
"Alright, my little Mengru, I know what happened last time left you feeling resentful, and I'm really resentful too, but there's nothing I can do now!" Li Jin decisively refused. He had already received news that the zombie outbreak was imminent, and at this critical juncture, he didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.
Lin Mengru looked at him with resentment. When she first climbed up to Li Jin, she thought she could live a life of luxury and never have to worry about anything. Who knew that Li's power was much less than she had imagined?
It seems she still needs to find a way to climb up to someone of higher status.
"Mengru, you should give up this idea for now! People who can live comfortably in this apocalypse must have some skills! Offending them is not a wise choice," Li Jin advised earnestly.
Lin Mengru appeared meek and submissive, but in reality, she was extremely resentful. It was impossible for her to let Ye Ning go.
All the misfortunes in her life were brought about by Ye Ning, so it's impossible for her to give up revenge.
Since Li Jin was unwilling to help her, she had no choice but to seek help herself.
After finishing his meal, Li Jin received a phone call and then hurriedly went out again.
After seeing Li Jin leave from the window, Lin Mengru dialed the phone.
"Hey! Brother Chi? I've got some information about making a fortune. Do you want it?" Lin Mengru said coquettishly.
"Information to make a fortune? What information?" Upon hearing the word "make a fortune," the person on the other end of the phone became visibly excited.
"Supplies, a large amount of supplies! Brother Chi, are you interested?" Lin Mengru deliberately whetted his appetite.
"Of course I want it! What information? Mengru, tell me quickly!"
The person speaking was Chen Tianchi, the biological father of Lin Mengru's son and Lin Mengru's boyfriend from junior high school who was a troublemaker.
Lin Mengru followed Chen Tianchi for several years when she was in school, and even secretly gave birth to his son. At that time, Chen Tianchi was a very popular school bully and a rich second-generation.
Just when Lin Mengru thought she could marry into a wealthy family and become a rich wife, fate dealt her a heavy blow: the Chen family went bankrupt.
After going bankrupt, Chen Tianchi, who was neither good enough for high-paying jobs nor good enough for low-paying ones, quickly became a pariah.
For a long time afterward, Lin Mengru became the target of his blackmail.
It could be said that Lin Mengru had been supporting him all along, and he had been secretly doing some shady things for Lin Mengru, and that person had never left.
After the extreme cold arrived, Lin Mengru lost contact with Chen Tianchi. She thought he had frozen to death, but who knew he would suddenly come looking for her a few days ago.
It turns out that after the apocalypse began, he had been staying at home, and his phone had run out of battery.
Chen Tianchi, who never planned for the future, naturally had no supplies at home. However, he survived to this day by robbing his neighbors of their supplies with a ruthless spirit.
"I know a place with 10 million worth of supplies. If we can get our hands on it, we'll be set for life," Lin Mengru said, building up the anticipation.
"10 million worth of supplies? What! Mengru, are you serious? Where is that place?" Chen Tianchi asked frantically.
My God, 10 million worth of supplies, that's a lot!
In fact, Li Mengru underestimated the supplies in the warehouse. Ye Ning alone purchased 20 million worth of supplies there. Adding the supplies she bought for free from nearby supermarkets and those she scavenged from other warehouses, the total value of supplies there was at least 200 to 300 million.
Since his family went bankrupt due to his father's failed investment, Chen Tianchi has been desperately trying to get rich. Unfortunately, he is neither good at academics nor martial arts, and he has no business acumen. He has never had the chance to get rich and instead squandered all the resources his father left him. Now that he finally has this opportunity, of course he wants to seize it!
"What benefit would I get from telling you?" It was impossible for her to give him the information for nothing.
"How about a 30/70 split? I'll take 70% and you take 30%!" Chen Tianchi quickly said. In his eyes, Lin Mengru didn't need to put in any effort; she only needed to talk. A 30/70 split would still be a win for Lin Mengru.
"No way! A 40/60 split!" Lin Mengru immediately rejected the idea.
"What do you mean 40/60?" Chen Tianchi was a little annoyed that he only got 60% for contributing manpower and effort. But then he thought it was fine; he could always turn against them later. "Alright, alright! I get 60%, you get 40%!"
“It’s not that you get six and I get four, but that I get six and you get four,” Lin Mengru said, enunciating each word clearly.
"What? Lin Mengru, aren't you being too greedy?" Chen Tianchi was so anxious he almost jumped up.
"If you think I'm asking for too much, then let's just forget about it!" Lin Mengru said with a regretful expression. "Actually, I just wanted to test you. I'm all yours, and my supplies are all yours too, aren't they?"
"But I never expected that my little test would elicit such a strong reaction from you. It turns out you've never considered me one of your own. You've really hurt me deeply." Lin Mengru choked up as she spoke.
"This! Mengru, that's not what I meant!" The simple-minded Chen Tianchi immediately panicked.
That's absolutely right. Anyway, Lin Mengru is his woman. No matter how much he splits the profits, those supplies will be his sooner or later. The most urgent thing is to find out the location as soon as possible.
Thinking about it this way, Lin Tianchi felt much better.
"Oh, Mengru, what are you saying? You're absolutely right. What's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours, right? Even if you get 60% and I get 40%, I wouldn't have any objections," Chen Tianchi quickly declared his loyalty.
On scientific methods of fish farming.
Lin Mengru is definitely an expert in this area.
"Alright, it's settled then!" After receiving Chen Tianchi's promise, Lin Mengru did not push her luck any further, because she knew that excessive suppression would only backfire.
"Mengru, can you tell me your address now?" Chen Tianchi asked hurriedly.
“Of course, Brother Chi…” Lin Mengru did not delay this time and readily told him the address of the warehouse.
For Lin Mengru, while supplies were important, the most important thing was to steal Ye Ning's supplies so she could vent her anger.
"It's there! I know!" Chen Tianchi nodded. Coincidentally, the address Lin Mengru mentioned wasn't too far from where he was now.
"Brother Chi, when can you get there?" Lin Mengru asked impatiently.
Now that the benefits have been distributed, the sooner the better.
"Let's go tomorrow!" Chen Tianchi was also eager to go, but it was already getting dark.
"Alright then!" Lin Mengru knew that haste makes waste.
Actually, she found out the information unintentionally from inside the rescue center. She learned that Ye Ning had actually stockpiled a lot of goods in another warehouse in addition to the shelter.
Ye Ning, do you think I can't do anything just because you're holed up in this fortress? You're seriously underestimating me!
In fact, Ye Ning didn't underestimate Lin Mengru; she simply didn't take Lin Mengru seriously at all.
