Chapter 2 Stocking up on supplies
Was that true just now?
She turned on the camera she usually used for daily filming and pointed it at herself, then silently said something in her mind as she entered. Sure enough, it was that space again. When she came out and played back what she had just filmed, she was surprised to find that only her consciousness had entered this space, and her body had not entered at the same time.
Considering her experience of reading novels over the years, this space couldn't be a golden finger.
Then place the camera and test it on the water cup, hand cream and charger on the table one by one.
“Oh my god…”
She actually possessed magical powers, and that unknown space was used to store things.
The exclamation was interrupted, she...she...what did she see?
There was a tender sprout on the tip of her index finger. She mustered up the courage to touch it. It shook from side to side as if acting coquettishly, then grew rapidly and gradually became a vine.
It moved with Zhao Nanyu's movements. Zhao Nanyu swung it, and the cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
"Zhao Nanyu, calm down, please stay calm."
Zhao Nanyu was talking to himself with great confidence.
His brain was working rapidly. This wasn't an ordinary golden finger. It couldn't be a superpower.
Superpowers? Damn it, superpowers in apocalyptic novels?
I rushed to the desktop computer and searched for the end of the world. A bunch of strange novels popped up. I looked through the comments below and found one or two prophecies about the end of the world.
Is the end of the world really coming?
Or is there someone else who has the same strange abilities as her and is making random guesses?
Maybe she was overthinking it. Someone was creating panic to attract traffic and gain popularity?
When she raised her head from the screen again, the area around her eyes was as dark as a giant panda's, and her strength seemed to have been drained away.
Her round eyes turned slowly, and everything told her one thing clearly, which was to stock up on supplies every minute.
As the saying goes, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
Don't waste any more time, just get started.
There are no street lights in the countryside. Aunt Li next door got up in the middle of the night and saw a figure stealing vegetables stealing in the fields.
They went back to the house and woke up the old man. Then, they beat the thief with clubs and said, "Who are you, little thief? How dare you come to our Zhaojia Village to steal things? Do you want to die?"
"Aunt Li, Uncle Li, please stop hitting me. It's me, Nan Yu, I picked the vegetables from our garden."
Zhao Nanyu was so scared when she saw the hammer hitting her forehead that she dodged here and there. The small flashlight she was wearing on her head fell to the ground, just illuminating her face.
Aunt Li and her husband took a closer look and then checked again. They were sure that the vegetables they were pulling out were not from their own garden. They put down the pestle awkwardly and muttered, "You girl, why are you pulling vegetables so late at night?"
"I'm planning to cook a table full of dishes for Chinese New Year, but I need to go to the supermarket to buy fish and meat tomorrow morning. I'm afraid I won't have enough time. I can't sleep tonight anyway, so I'm going to pick the vegetables so I don't have to do it again tomorrow."
Zhao Nanyu said, and then added, "Aunt Li, do you want me to bring you some meat tomorrow?"
The old couple was used to living frugally, and since they had chickens at home, they subconsciously wanted to wave their hands and say no.
Zhao Nanyu quickly added, "I heard there's a new supermarket in town that's having a sale. Your son, daughter-in-law, and grandson will be home tomorrow, right? Buy some more for them to have during the New Year."
When it comes to her precious grandson, Aunt Li doesn't think twice and makes the decision, "Okay, bring some back for me tomorrow, and also bring me a bottle of vinegar."
"Okay."
"By the way, Aunt Li and Uncle Li, the vegetables in this field are growing well. You should pull them all out tomorrow. They won't go bad even in the winter. I just checked my vegetable patch and saw that several spots have been trampled by stray livestock. It's such a pity. The vegetables are so good! I'm so heartbroken."
Uncle Li and Aunt Li glanced at the place where Zhao Nanyu pointed, and sure enough, it was stepped on and broken.
He quickly replied "Okay". Before leaving, Aunt Li walked around her vegetable garden several times out of concern. After checking that there was no problem, she yawned and went back to the house.
After the two left, Zhao Nanyu took a breath. She was pulling out the trees so hard that she stepped on the crushed ground without noticing.
Although Uncle Li and Aunt Li are a bit stingy and calculating, they are not bad people at heart. There is no harm in stockpiling vegetables anyway.
What she didn't know was that after the end of the world came, Aunt Li and her family were extremely grateful for her reminder.
After picking all the vegetables in the vegetable garden, Zhao Nanyu looked around and saw that there was no one around. He muttered something in his mind, and three large baskets of fresh vegetables entered the space.
The sky was turning white, and she was already waiting at the entrance of the supermarket in her car.
He closed his eyes and dozed off in the car until nine o'clock. As soon as the supermarket door opened, Zhao Nanyu rushed in first.
Including all her savings, it’s one million.
She kept 200,000 yuan for herself and planned to use the remaining 800,000 yuan to buy supplies.
She was gambling. If the apocalypse didn't come, everyone would be happy. The supplies would be in the space anyway, and she could use them in her daily life, so it wasn't a loss. If the apocalypse really came, she didn't dare to think about it and was afraid.
I bought a hundred bags of rice, a hundred bundles of noodles, a hundred bags of flour, and I also bought a lot of fruits and vegetables. I also took all the snacks and self-heating fast food I could see.
She bought a lot, but not too much. After all, the supermarket in town had limited supplies and her money was limited. In the end, she asked the supermarket to help deliver the goods. The large truck was not easy to turn around on the country road, so Zhao Nanyu asked the driver to unload everything on the side of the road, and then waited for the driver to leave before quickly putting everything into the space.
Then she drove to the vegetable market, fruit shop, and mall. After visiting the town, she drove another two hours to the city. She visited almost every store, covering her face with a hat and mask while shopping. Even with all this going on, it was the manager of the first supermarket who gave her a strange look that reminded her that she couldn't buy large quantities from a single store. This was difficult to explain.
She didn't know why, but she felt a sense of urgency, so urgent that she didn't even have time to rent a warehouse. She had to find an excuse to deliver each batch of goods to a remote location and then store them in the space.
This would easily lead to her being discovered, but she was in a hurry, very anxious, and didn't dare to delay even a moment.
Her intuition told her that she couldn't keep a single cent of the remaining 200,000 yuan.
Gritting his teeth, Zhao Nanyu bought some basic medicines, disinfectant, alcohol, Band-Aids, bandages, jackets, knives, hammers, sneakers, sanitary napkins, underwear, vegetable and fruit seeds, live chickens, ducks, fish, pigs, etc.
As long as she could think of it, she had bought it to the best of her ability.
With ten yuan left in his pocket, Zhao Nanyu bought a good number online, registered a new account, and published an article to remind everyone to pay attention to virus protection and stock up on food as soon as possible, as the end of the world might be on the way.
As expected, there was a lot of scolding below, and later the account was reported and blocked.
On New Year’s Eve, fireworks are set off outside the window and the whole family is reunited.
Zhao Nanyu skillfully dialed a phone number. The man's cheerful voice rang in her ears across thousands of miles, and all her fatigue disappeared.
