Chapter 3 Stockpiling Supplies
There were too many things, so Yu Duoduo asked the boss to help her move them all to a rented truck. When no one was paying attention, she closed the truck door and swept all the staple foods into a room in the space.
From floor to ceiling, the room, which was approximately 30 square meters, was instantly filled up by 2/3.
Walking further into the shop, the next is the meat area.
The slaughtered pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, dogs and rabbits were stripped of their fur and hung upside down on racks with iron hooks, which made Yu Duoduo think of a word - a forest of hanging corpses!
Yu Duoduo chose a stall with fewer customers. The owner was busy shaving a pig's foot.
Sensing that a customer was coming, the boss glanced back and saw a slender girl. He said nonchalantly, "We are doing wholesale here, not retail!"
No wonder the business is bad, the attitude is bad, these wholesalers are the best at judging people and treating them the right way. Yu Duoduo said slowly:
"We need 5,000 kilograms each of pork belly and tenderloin, and 1,000 kilograms each of pork belly, hind leg meat, pork ribs, big bones, dragon bones, and pig's trotters.
1,000 kilograms each of beef tenderloin, beef tendon, beef brisket, beef ribs, lamb tenderloin, lamb ribs, and lamb legs are required.
We need 500 chickens and 500 ducks. We need 500 kilograms of chicken wings, duck wings, and chicken breasts, and 50 kilograms of duck blood.”
Meat is a consumable. In the end times, people eat less and less. As time goes by, it becomes more like a luxury.
Although Yu Duoduo looks thin, she loves meat when she eats. The meat is bought according to her own preferences. Even if she eats a pound of meat every day, it should be no problem for her to eat it for thirty to fifty years.
When the boss heard this, he was stunned for a few seconds, then he turned around and found that it was a big customer!
He had made a mistake just now. He thought that skinny little girl would only buy half a pound of cat food!
"Miss, you are kidding, right? This meat cannot be returned once it leaves the warehouse!" the boss asked uncertainly.
"It's the company's anniversary and we're giving out benefits to employees. The boss needs them urgently. Can we get them today?"
Yu Duoduo's company distributes benefits during every festival and holiday. She has a good relationship with her colleagues in the materials department. She heard from them that bosses who sell agricultural products like the products purchased by the company the most because they sell them at a fixed price and there is basically no risk of returns.
"Oh! You're purchasing for the company. Sure, you can get it right away!" The butcher's shop owner smiled happily.
"Our boss has a good relationship with the leaders of the quality inspection department. This is a benefit for employees. Don't take advantage of my young age and give me something of inferior quality!"
Yu Duoduo first put some pressure on his boss to prevent him from playing tricks.
"How dare we! We are in the wholesale business, selling at least dozens of pigs, cattle and sheep every day. We dare not ruin our reputation. Don't worry, girl! Do you want anything else?"
Yu Duoduo suddenly thought of the 100-square-meter garden in his own space. Why not raise some living things in it and wait for them to slowly reproduce in the space? This way, no matter how long it takes, he won’t have to worry about running out of meat!
"Boss, do you have live chickens for sale?"
The boss suddenly laughed and said, "Girl, this is the largest farmer's market. We have everything! Just tell me how much you want."
Yu Duoduo thought about it and said conservatively, "Then we need 10 chickens, 7 females and 3 males."
She was not worried that the garden would not be able to accommodate the birds, but she was worried whether her food would be enough to feed so many mouths!
The boss moved quickly. He immediately picked up the calculator, typed in the total price, and said with a smile.
"The total is 488,500. I'll round it off to 488,000. Miss, do you want to pay by credit card or transfer?"
"Transfer the money." Yu Duoduo swiped the card with a painful heart, and more than four hundred thousand yuan went out.
"Here, young lady, I'll give you 50 kilograms of pork belly and 20 kilograms of pig blood! If there's more business like this in the future, please introduce me to more places!"
Seeing that the little girl bought so many things and paid without even bargaining, the butcher smiled and spoke.
Yu Duoduo nodded.
"Okay! I'll prepare the goods for you right away." The butcher turned around and asked, "Miss, do you need delivery service? Can you give me an address and I'll deliver it to your door?"
"No, my car is parked outside. Please help me move it to the car!"
Soon, the required things were ready. The boss called three helpers and pushed two carts back and forth between the warehouse and the truck. After about ten trips, they finally finished loading.
As it got closer to noon, the weather got hotter. The truck's container was like a steamer, and so much meat would soon go bad if kept in the truck.
After the boss finished loading the goods and went back to his stall, Yu Duoduo immediately jumped into the car and swept all the meat into the space.
It just filled up the room where the food was stored.
Yu Duoduo threw the live chicken into the small garden. Without the restraints of the cage, the chicken ran around happily in the garden.
Yu Duoduo ignored them. There were still too many supplies to buy. The more things she stockpiled, the longer and more comfortably she could live in the apocalypse.
After jumping off the truck container, her clothes were soaked with sweat, but luckily she was dressed in black, so it didn't matter. She then ran to the aquatic area without stopping.
1,000 crucian carp, black carp, grass carp, bighead carp and basa fish each need to be gutted.
500 kilograms each of frozen sole, white pomfret, cod, eel, shrimp, clams, scallops, and octopus, and 1,000 hairy crabs.
The seafood and hairy crabs were ready-made and packed in plastic boxes. Yu Duoduo borrowed a cart from the boss, loaded them onto the truck himself, and then put them directly into the space.
Seafood doesn't take up much space. Yu Duoduo stacked the plastic boxes one by one into the bathroom. One-third of the 10-square-meter bathroom was filled with seafood and crabs, and the rest of the space was reserved for freshly killed fish.
It takes time to kill the fish, so Yu Duoduo agreed with the boss to come back later to get it, and then went to the dry goods and seasoning area not far away.
5,000 each of chicken eggs, duck eggs, and quail eggs, and 3,000 each of preserved eggs and salted duck eggs.
The boss gave her 50 palm-sized goose eggs, saying that one was equivalent to five or six chicken eggs, and that they were big and would fill her up!
For this reason, Yu Duoduo asked for 1,000 more goose eggs.
Although he bought live chickens and ducks, Yu Duoduo did not expect to achieve egg freedom by relying on the dozen or so hens and ducks. After all, the end of the world is dangerous, and it is still unknown whether those chickens and ducks can survive.
Next are 500 kilograms each of cured sausages, cured meat, and cured fish, and 5,000 each of starch ham sausages, corn sausages, and chicken sausages.
The dried goods are durable, including 500 kilograms each of shiitake mushrooms, king oyster mushrooms, black fungus, white fungus, dried shrimps, seaweed, red dates, and dried vegetables.
Next are the condiments, 100 barrels each of 20L/barrel light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, aged vinegar, and oyster sauce.
200 bottles each of cooking wine, bean paste, chili sauce, soybean paste, tomato sauce, salad dressing, sesame paste, and Lao Gan Ma sauce.
I needed 20 boxes each of concentrated soup base, original soup, butter, vegetable oil, mushroom soup, three fresh ingredients, and tomato hot pot base, and the boss gave me 2 boxes of special hot pot sauce.
500 kilograms each of chicken essence, starch, baking soda, yeast powder, pepper, cumin powder, five-spice powder, and chili powder; 200 kilograms each of Sichuan pepper, star anise, cumin, Sichuan pepper, pepper, bay leaves, fennel, and cinnamon.
5,000 kilograms each of white granulated sugar, white rock sugar, yellow rock sugar, and brown sugar, 200 boxes of sugar cubes, and 5,000 kilograms each of iodized salt and non-iodized salt.
Sugar and salt are both indispensable things for people, especially salt. In the last days, when the flood passes, there will be no place to find money even if you have it.
These things were piled up by Yu Duoduo in a 30㎡ room, occupying 1/2 of the room, layer by layer, which was quite spectacular!
