Chapter 2 Taking Back Space
When his parents died in a car accident early, his uncle and aunt became Yu Duoduo's only relatives in the world, so he always trusted them and responded to any requests they made.
But who would have thought that it is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away.
Yu Duoduo was a minor when his father and mother passed away.
Under the pretext of taking care of Yu Duoduo's daily life, her uncle and aunt moved into their 150-square-meter walk-up flat near the Third Ring Road.
As the guardian, the uncle has control of the house title, as well as all the savings and valuables left by Yu Duoduo's parents.
It was so difficult for Duoduo to get back his belongings when he grew up. That family showed the country people's stubbornness and the spirit of not being afraid of wearing shoes even if they are barefoot to the fullest.
The gentle and introverted Yu Duoduo couldn't bear to fall out with her only relative, so in order to live a more peaceful life, she simply moved out and bought a house.
When the end of the world came in the previous life, the small flats in the Third Ring Road were the first to be flooded.
Then the family naturally moved into her apartment, ate her food and drank her drinks, under the pretext that family should help each other.
But their so-called help has always been one-sided, just asking Yu Duoduo to help them.
Now thinking back, it was a little strange. She had some food at the beginning, but it was eaten up by the family. She was so hungry that her chest was sticking to her back, but the family members were all beaming from beginning to end...
She had wondered before where the food they ate came from, but she thought that supernatural things only existed in novels and movies. How could the things she imagined happen in real life...
But she was reborn! Doesn't this mean that, in fact, nothing is impossible!
When that family came to her apartment, they were clearly empty-handed and didn't bring anything with them. So how come they were able to conjure up food and daily necessities out of thin air later?
There must be a secret here.
In an instant, Yu Duoduo suddenly thought of something...
The most profound memory in her mind was the jade bracelet that her aunt wore on her hand when she came to her apartment that day, because it had belonged to her mother and was said to be a family heirloom.
After my mother died, the bracelet was passed to my aunt, but she always disliked the bracelet because it was too dark and old-fashioned, and refused to wear it. But when she came to the apartment, she wore it, and she has always treasured it...
She stood up and walked straight to the utility room, dragging out a toolbox containing a hammer, axe, wrench, pliers, scissors, etc.
He then changed his clothes and dragged his suitcase out the door.
The temperature outside was hotter than inside. Yu Duoduo turned on the air conditioner of the mini cooper to the maximum and drove towards his home on the Third Ring Road.
The text message phone rang several times along the way. Yu Mumu was afraid of missing out on messages from his childhood sweetheart, so he turned on his phone to check at several red lights.
Too bad he never came back.
All the messages were sent by that female colleague whose face is thicker than tree bark.
[Have you set off yet? I'll be waiting for you at the gate of the community! ]
[I'm standing by the road. You can see me when you get there.]
[The weather is too hot, please hurry up, little sister! ]
…
When did I agree to pick her up? That's so funny!
Since you want to wait, then wait. After all, in this 50℃ high temperature, you can get heatstroke if you stand on the roadside for ten minutes.
After a while, the car drove into the residential area. Yu Duoduo parked the mini car at a nearby place and climbed the stairs to the third floor.
There was no one at home. She must have been getting ready to go out to escape the heat, so the whole family went to the supermarket for a shopping spree. She even brought a scary thing with her, but it seemed like it wasn't going to be useful.
Yu Duoduo rushed into his aunt's bedroom first and searched for a while. As a result, he found the bracelet lying in the drawer of the bedside table, covered with dust.
She thought about it, took out a blade from her toolbox, cut her finger and dripped blood on the bracelet. She remembered that this is what was written in novels.
The emerald green bracelet suddenly darkened in color, and then became hot. With a dull bang, the hot bracelet fell onto the carpet.
How come this is different from what I expected? Shouldn't something happen? Could it be that I was thinking in the wrong direction?
Yu Duoduo bent down to pick up the bracelet that fell on the ground. When he stood up, he suddenly found a translucent door in front of him, overlapping with the bed in front of him, like a three-dimensional projection.
Yu Duoduo subconsciously reached out to open the door. A blinding light shone in, and when she opened her eyes again she was already inside the door.
This is a 200-square-meter apartment with three bedrooms, two living rooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. The interior is empty, but there is water and electricity.
Walking out from the hall, there is a small garden of 100 square meters, and outside the garden is a thick white fog.
This is the secret of my aunt's family eating alone! An independent space!
Yu Duoduo walked around inside, then opened the door and left the space. After closing the door, the projection disappeared, but her consciousness could clearly sense the existence of that space.
The magical thing is that as long as something is within her sight, no matter how big or small, as long as she wants, she can use her consciousness to put it into the space, and can also adjust the position of the thing at will.
In order to understand the function of the space, Yu Duoduo threw whatever he saw in the house into the room, including the fruits on the coffee table and the hamster raised by his cousin.
She discovered that indoor spaces have unlimited freshness-preserving capabilities, while small gardens do not.
But animals can only move around in the small garden and are not allowed indoors.
After completing the inspection, she threw out all the garbage in the space.
Yu Duoduo's mood gradually improved. Facing the end of the world with the space, it didn't seem so scary!
She turned the entire house upside down, and almost everything her parents left behind was eaten up by the locusts.
However, he unexpectedly found a safe door on the overturned TV wall. He took out an axe and chopped it open. Unexpectedly, he found 500,000 yuan in cash and the property certificate of his home.
She was very sure that this money was left for her by her parents, because her uncle and aunt were penniless when they came from their hometown and had no proper jobs, so how could they have so much savings!
Throw the cash into the space and put the property deed into the bag.
"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving."
It was a farewell, and then he closed the door and left.
The apocalyptic flood came, and at its highest point the water reached a height of several dozen meters. The terrain here was low-lying, and the houses were too short and too old to withstand the flood, and were submerged in water early on.
The apartment where I live is in the city center, in a high location and on a high floor, so my aunt and her family from my previous life came to live with me.
In this life, she will definitely not repeat the same mistake and be kind to that family. She wants to live selfishly for herself.
The 1 million she has now plus the 500,000 in cash she just received makes a total of 1.5 million!
Thinking of the red house deed in his hand, Yu Duoduo picked up his mobile phone and called a friend.
"Xiao Jin, I have something to ask you. If I use the property deed as collateral for a mortgage, how many days will it take for the money to be credited?"
"Usually it takes 7 days. Do you have a loan?" the other party replied.
“There is no mortgage, it’s my parents’ house, but 7 days… is too long!”
“That’s easy. It only takes us three days to process the property title without a loan. But for Sister Yu’s sake, I can go through an internal process and the money will be in your account today!
Here, sister, just take a photo of the property deed and your ID card and send it to me!"
"Okay, thank you. Sister Yu will introduce more business to you in the future!"
After finalizing the mortgage, Yu Duoduo drove to a nearby bank.
In the digital age, it is still more convenient to keep money on your mobile phone!
Ding——income of 500,000 yuan, balance of 1,500,666 yuan.
Time to go stock up on supplies!
At 9 o'clock in the morning, Yu Duoduo drove his air-conditioned mini car to the largest agricultural wholesale market in the city.
There were a lot of things she wanted to stockpile, so in order to avoid arousing suspicion, she parked her car in a parking lot not far away and rented a large truck with a container and parked it in the alley next to the farmer's market.
There are many small vendors coming here to purchase goods, and there is a lot of noise and people and vehicles mixed together.
Yu Duoduo mixed in the crowd and went to the area where rice, flour and oil were sold first.
Staple food is the fundamental guarantee for survival in the end times. It does not matter how good it is, but how much it is needed.
10,000 kilograms of Wuchang rice and Thai fragrant rice are needed each, and 5,000 kilograms of low-, medium- and high-gluten flour are needed each.
1,000 boxes each of dried noodles, non-fried instant noodles, and alkaline noodles, and 200 boxes each of rice noodles and sweet potato noodles.
1,000 kilograms each of red beans, mung beans, soybeans, millet, corn, and black rice are needed.
100 barrels each of 5L/barrel peanut oil, corn oil and sunflower oil.
She would not be able to finish all of this even if she died of natural causes.
But only with enough food can she have enough confidence to survive in the apocalypse.
