Chapter 12 A Helper
"Sister Su You, to be honest, your sister Min told me that you want to start a cosmetics business. But I saw that the people who came to deliver goods today were all special delivery trucks from large supermarkets, and they were all carrying food, clothes, and the like."
"Your sister Min also said that you reminded her that the weather has been bad recently and there might be heavy rain, so she should stock up on more supplies. Is this true?"
Sun Liancheng's tone revealed seriousness and it didn't look like he was joking.
Su You had to cheer up and take a fresh look at this seemingly ordinary man.
She just reminded Sister Min to be careful about climate change and stock up on supplies, but she didn't say much else.
In his previous life, Su You heard Sister Min mention that her husband Sun Liancheng had been working in warehouse management for more than ten years. The family was used to stockpiling goods, so they were well prepared. For a period of time after the end of the world began, they lived a more comfortable and carefree life than others.
Later, the couple stockpiled a lot of goods, but they were also kind-hearted and often gave supplies to others.
Could it be that this was not a coincidence, but he knew something in advance?
She pretended to be confused and said, "Brother Sun, what are you talking about? I don't understand."
Seeing this, Sun Liancheng felt a little helpless and explained, "Don't worry, sister. I'm not here to expose or threaten you. I just want to confirm whether this is true or not."
As he spoke, he quietly glanced around again, confirming that no one was around. He then said mysteriously, "To tell you the truth, the higher-ups have been tightening control over certain items lately. I have a brother in a special agency, and he told me to stockpile some supplies in advance, saying that things might change in the future, and this would give me a foundation for the future."
Hearing this, Su You's expression became serious.
Sun Liancheng doesn't look like he's talking nonsense.
Could it be that someone had already noticed the natural disaster in the previous life?
Su You is not stupid. Thinking back to the inexplicable tragic death of Sun Liancheng in his previous life, could it be related to this matter?
Su You nodded. "Yes, according to the prophecy, the end of the world will begin in a month. I have a friend who is a survivalist and has been following the news. This time he was very sure and contacted me to stock up in advance. These are the items he requested."
She said it half-seriously.
Although she had received favors, she did not know Sun Liancheng well.
If what he said was false and he was trying to trick her, she could get away without losing too much money and then change her identity and move to other cities to continue stockpiling goods.
After hearing Su You's words, Sun Liancheng looked like he had no doubts at all.
He clapped his hands and sighed, "I see, it seems what he said is true."
Su You asked: "Brother Sun, you said your friend is in a special agency. Does he know the cause of this apocalypse?"
Sun Liancheng frowned as he thought of something. "He didn't reveal anything, only that the probability is very high. If it happens, the entire planet will deteriorate in an irreversible direction."
Su You seemed to be lost in thought.
Sun Liancheng sighed, "If the apocalypse really comes, it'll be hard for us ordinary people to survive. We can only stock up in advance and hold out as long as we can. After all, a good death is worse than a miserable life."
As the head of the family, although Sun Liancheng is good at preparing for a rainy day, he is still an ordinary person in the face of such an irresistible natural disaster and has no power to fight back.
The man, who was almost forty, showed a wry smile.
"Sister Su You, to be honest, I contacted you just to find a way out. I can see that your friend has a lot of money and should be a big shot. If there's a shelter or an air-raid shelter out there, I hope you can lend us a hand for your sister Min's sake."
"Don't worry, I'll keep the contents of your warehouse confidential no matter what. If you need me for anything, just let me know."
Sun Liancheng's magnanimity made Su You seem overly cautious.
He is indeed a good helper here.
Su You said, "Okay, Brother Sun, if I'm not here in the future, I'll have to trouble you to take care of the warehouse."
"No problem, no problem."
Sun Liancheng's words reminded Su You.
Using the warehouse as a transfer point for materials seemed to have significant drawbacks. She was being too careless.
There is a close connection between warehouse managers and cargo transport personnel, which means that they are not completely ignorant of what is in the cargo boxes.
If no one helps to cover up, there is a high probability that large amounts of supplies will be discovered if they are transported into the warehouse for a long time.
She just needed a helper to help her cover up and deal with these things.
"Brother Sun, I've taken your words to heart. If there's any news about the shelter, I'll keep an eye out for you. As for Sister Min, I hope you can keep it a secret for now to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings and trouble."
Sun Liancheng agreed repeatedly: "Of course. It's hard for anyone to say something without any basis. Telling it to others will only bring trouble. Don't worry, you and I are the only ones who know about this."
Su You nodded. She thought of something and asked, "Have you started stockpiling goods?"
Sun Liancheng: "It just started yesterday. I have a villa in the Huanshan Valley Resort. It's on high ground, has plenty of water and electricity, and even has a storage room. I plan to store my belongings there. If there's any danger in the future, I can go there to take shelter."
Huanshan Valley Resort is located in the northwest of Shenzhen City and is indeed the highest place in the vicinity.
Sun Liancheng did not hide the fact from her that he had moved to a villa surrounded by mountains and valleys in his previous life.
That area belongs to the wealthy area of Shenzhen, with a large number of villas and holiday homestays. Later, heavy rains came, and some people in the city chose to move to the northwestern mountainous area.
Su You said: "Okay, Brother Sun, first stock up according to your plan. If I have any news, I will contact you as soon as possible."
Seeing that Su You had completely changed his attitude, Sun Liancheng finally felt relieved.
Su You had something else to do in the afternoon, so after exchanging a few more words with Sun Liancheng, he chose to say goodbye.
This trip, she gained a lot. Not only was the base upgraded, but she also gained an extra helper.
The black SUV drove on the gray asphalt road and drove out of the blue warehouse area.
Sun Liancheng sat on the hillside, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one.
He felt relieved for the time being.
Since that day, his brother left only one sentence and there was no news after that.
He was still skeptical at first, until Su You showed up and made him realize that his wife's colleague had actually hoarded so many goods. This was a huge sum of money, not something a girl of this age could afford.
He had a feeling that there must be a big man behind this girl who was controlling everything.
Sun Liancheng had to be vigilant and verify carefully.
Now that my speculation has come true, I feel relieved, but I also feel worried about the future.
When the end of the world comes, he just wants to protect his wife and children.
He did all this just in the hope that the big man behind Su You would be able to spare a hand and help him in the future.
