The next day after Su Keke came back, she drove to the Lanshan villa area again.
This time she went alone. She told Grandma Qiao that she just wanted to try her luck again and asked Grandma Qiao to stay at home without worry.
The market organized by the municipal office has ended these days. In just this short week, many people have been able to exchange enough food to sustain themselves for many days.
After the market was over, there were even fewer people on the streets. In such cold weather, anyone who had a little food at home would not go out to suffer the cold.
Even if I stayed at home wrapped in two quilts, I still didn't feel warm, let alone going out. When the wind blew hard, I could get bloody cuts on my face.
While driving along the way, Su Keke met several people wearing torn cotton coats and carrying bamboo baskets.
It's obvious that he went out to dig some wild vegetables to fill his stomach because he couldn't make ends meet at home.
In the previous life, Su Keke, Grandma Qiao, and the people on the 20th floor had to go out to pick wild vegetables at dawn on extremely cold days. Even though it was very cold at that time, they had to go out. If they went a little later, they might not be able to pick any wild vegetables.
When the people on the side of the road saw Su Keke's SUV passing by, their eyes were filled with envy.
They thought how rich and powerful this person must be to be able to afford a car in the end times. They hadn't seen such a brand new car on the road for a long time.
Only when Su Keke's car disappeared did these people sigh and continue walking towards the sunny slope more than 10 kilometers away in the cold wind.
A new patch of wild vegetables has been discovered over there that is growing very well. They have to get there early, otherwise they might be gone. Now the rich eat rice and the poor eat wild vegetables.
There are only about ten rich people in Liangcheng, but there are a lot of poor people, so you have to go digging wild vegetables early every day. If you go too late, there won’t even be a root left for you.
In her previous life, Su Keke had envied others for being able to eat instant noodles in the extreme cold.
At that time, her own pursuit was very simple, just to be able to have enough food and clothes with Grandma Qiao in the extreme cold.
However, this request was simply a luxury for them at that time.
At that time, the fact that Su Ke survived by eating wild vegetables was probably the greatest blessing from fate.
In the previous life, the Chinese government also had a difficult time and was powerless to deal with many things. Countless victims froze to death or starved to death in the extreme cold.
Su Keke drove the car to the foot of Lanshan Mountain very quickly. At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Grandma Qiao had told her before she left the house, "Remember to blacken your face!"
Su Keke quickly stopped the car on the side of the road and took out the bottle of tanning foundation that Grandma Qiao had stuffed into her pocket from her down jacket.
"Putting on makeup is so troublesome!" Su Keke complained and started to apply foundation on her face in front of the mirror.
Unexpectedly, she used too much and turned herself into a big black girl. In an instant, a version of herself that was N shades darker appeared in the mirror.
Seeing herself so dark, Su Keke almost fainted from laughing.
She winked at the mirror, revealing a row of white teeth.
"Oh my god! My teeth are so white they're scary!"
Now Su Keke finally understood why black people's teeth are so white. Isn't it because of the dark skin that sets off their teeth?
Just as Su Keke was tinkering with her vehicle, a white Land Rover Range Rover slowly drove past her SUV.
Both vehicles had anti-peeping glass film, so no one could see clearly who was sitting in the car.
Su Keke quickly started the car and followed the Land Rover. She thought that if she could meet someone from the Du family today, then this trip would not be in vain.
When Su Keke's SUV followed the Land Rover and was about to reach the main entrance of the villa area, as expected, she was stopped by security personnel again.
So she could only watch the Land Rover drive into the villa area.
The security guards who stopped the car today were not the two she had seen the day before yesterday, but they said the same thing to Su Keke.
They all asked Su Keke to turn around and go down the mountain immediately. This was a private place not open to the public. Only the owner could enter.
"Hello! I want to find the person in charge of your villa area. I have something important to discuss with him. Please help inform him."
Su Keke learned her lesson this time. She quickly stopped the car, got out and secretly stuffed two large boxes of Dove chocolate into the hands of the two security guards, avoiding the cameras.
In the apocalypse, nothing is as effective as sending food. These security personnel work in the Arashiyama villa area, so having enough food and clothing is certainly not a problem, but high-calorie snacks like chocolate should not be distributed here.
The two security guards looked at each other in bewilderment as they looked at the chocolates in their hands. Apart from those rich people who liked to stock up and lived in the villa, who else would have a snack like chocolate that could satisfy their hunger?
"How about we go and report to Mr. Xiao Du?"
A security guard quickly opened the bucket of chocolates that Su Keke gave him and stuffed all the chocolates inside into his pocket.
He has an 18-year-old sister who loves to eat this kind of Dove chocolate.
Before the disaster, he would buy two barrels of Dove chocolate for his sister every time he got his salary. After the disaster, the family was lucky to have food to eat, so they didn't dare to think about these snacks that could no longer be produced.
"Okay! I'll watch from here, and you go report to Mr. Xiao Du."
The other security guard also imitated the previous one and took off the outer packaging of the chocolate that Su Keke gave them and put it neatly in his cotton coat pocket.
"Wait here for a moment. We will go report first. It is not up to us to decide whether Mr. Xiao Du will see you or not."
"Okay! Okay! Thank you so much!"
Su Keke knew there was a chance, and she suddenly felt a little excited.
In the villa area, Du Yichen, who is respected by everyone as Mr. Xiao Du, is the second son of Du Huairen. He is in charge of all the affairs of this villa area.
"Someone wants to see me at the gate? And they say it's something important?"
Du Yichen was sitting on the sofa in the office, holding the teapot in one hand and pouring himself a cup of black tea, when someone came to report that there was someone at the door who wanted to see him.
It is said that black tea can keep you warm, but he actually doesn't know that. But over the past few days, he followed his father and slowly fell in love with drinking black tea.
The security personnel turned on the air conditioner in the office before he came back, and the temperature was set to 30 degrees, which was just right.
After the natural disaster, many of the Du family’s businesses were damaged to varying degrees, and now the whole family lives in the Lanshan villa area.
They have so many houses, but the one in Lanshan is the safest at the moment. It was not flooded during the last big flood.
When his father bought this piece of land, he asked a master of metaphysics to take a look. The master said that this was a Feng Shui treasure land, and if his father built a house here, it would be able to ward off some unexpected disasters.
At that time, Du Yichen really didn't believe what this master of metaphysics said, but his father Du Huairen believed it without a doubt.
Unexpectedly, the continuous natural disasters now have confirmed what the master said at that time.
If Du Yicheng has nothing to do now, he basically stays in the villa. Occasionally he goes to play chess with his father or drink tea. His life is relaxed and comfortable.
If he hadn't gone out so early today to meet a big boss who was dealing in arms, he wouldn't have gone out. In the end times, it's not enough to have money and supplies, you also need people and guns.
The whole world is suffering from disasters now, and all kinds of transportation have been interrupted. Even the arms tycoons do not have much stock on hand. Today, there were a total of 5 buyers bidding together. Du Yichen transported a truck of food and only got 20 ordinary pistols and two boxes of bullets in return.
Du Yiben originally didn't want to see the people at the door. The important thing these people said was that they wanted to live in the villa area.
The old man has made it clear that he will not sell his two empty houses, even if they are empty.
Therefore, whether before or after the natural disaster, he had rejected many people. In the end, he simply avoided meeting them to avoid trouble.
