Chapter 7 Stockpiling Daily Necessities



At four in the morning, Lin Yue got up and went to the underground parking garage. Without even looking at the Volkswagen that had already returned, she drove the small truck directly into the garage.

When it comes to sourcing goods, you have to make it look like you're sourcing goods; you can't just do it for the masses.

Because she was planning to stay in a neighboring city for two days, she specifically told the steamed bun shop owner not to make any steamed buns for the next two days, and to wait until she returned.

It takes five hours to drive from W City to H City, but Lin Yue specifically chose a route with more gas stations, so it took her twice as long to get to H City, more than ten hours.

After arriving in H City and finding a place to stay, it was already past six in the evening. She simply ate dinner and continued to rest, planning to go to the wholesale market the next morning.

Although the prices at the wholesale market are not factory prices, they are still much cheaper than in stores.

The next day, Lin Yue arrived at the wholesale market early and began stocking up. She bought enough seasonings and hot pot base for two lifetimes, especially salt and oil. The amount was so much that she probably couldn't finish it in five lifetimes.

Next came bottled water. I took five thousand cases of both large and small bottles. More would be too conspicuous, and with over two million yuan to spend, there were many other things to buy, so I had to plan ahead. Besides, five thousand cases was quite a lot.

Later, if the apocalypse comes, she plans to do another free shopping spree, provided, of course, that there is an apocalypse.

As for not competing with others for survival resources, that's not something she should even consider; she's not that kind.

Perhaps I was kind in the past, but now, I am kind, though not much.

After buying the water, the next step was clothes, shoes, socks, blankets, mosquito nets, and bedding sets. Most of the clothes I bought were down jackets, cotton-padded coats, sweaters, and thermal underwear. The blankets also had to be thick, but of course, I didn't overlook the thin ones either.

Because she was buying the thick clothes out of season, the shopkeeper was able to clear out his inventory, making them much cheaper. She scanned several full-body items in her own size and a size larger before finally finishing.

These are all the things I bought on the first day.

For the next two days, Lin Yue continued to visit the wholesale market.

In the past two days, she has been stocking up on tissues, sanitary napkins, disposable tableware, garbage bags, cat litter, towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, shower gel, laundry detergent, laundry powder, soap, and everything else she thinks she might need.

Yes, she also stockpiled 50,000 small umbrellas, all kinds of sizes. The boss looked at her like she was nothing special, but she didn't show any expression.

She spends the money, he sells it; she doesn't need to explain.

After hoarding these, she spent nearly 700,000 yuan.

Seeing that she still had 1.4 million yuan in savings, Lin Yue decisively rushed back to W City and stocked up on 400,000 yuan worth of various fruits at the fruit wholesale market.

After stocking up on fruit, she drove around the countryside, looking for farm owners to buy pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, fish, and eggs.

She asks the farm owner to find someone to kill and butcher the animals for her, pays a processing fee, and then hauls them away in a small truck to a place to store them.

The people walking behind were stockpiling seafood.

She arrived at the seafood market early and waited there. Then she followed the seafood vendor who came to deliver seafood to the market and ordered 300,000 yuan worth of various seafood, which would be delivered and taken away over three days.

The main thing about seafood is freshness; it's impossible to eat it at every meal, so it's okay to have a little less.

On the last day after she finished hauling the seafood, her supervisor called.

Following the address given by Professor Qi, Lin Yue drove her small truck to a relatively remote warehouse in the East District.

In front of the warehouse, the mentor and his lover were standing at the door.

Lin Yue got out of the car and greeted them with a smile.

"Good morning, teacher and teacher's wife!"

"Hey! Lin Yue, where did you come from? Why do you smell so fishy?" Instructor Qi asked.

"Teacher, I went to the seafood market early this morning to buy seafood wholesale. I just finished dealing with the seafood and you called me."

"What, you really don't want to be a doctor anymore?" Lin Yue's professional skills are still very strong, otherwise how could she become his most outstanding student?

"No, I..." Lin Yue stopped.

While she was treating other patients, her parents died. Although they didn't die from illness, she still couldn't get over it.

When the teacher's wife saw that Lin Yue was in a low mood, she immediately pulled Professor Qi aside.

"Xiaoyue, don't listen to your teacher, that old stubborn man. As long as you like something, you can do anything. Why do you have to be a doctor? Come on, your teacher's wife will take you to see what you want." The teacher's wife pulled Lin Yue over to look at the medicine.

Lin Yue is a girl who knows how to talk and do things, and she has always liked her very much.

The medicine Lin Yue bought was still in the car, even before Professor Qi had unloaded it.

There's really nothing to see here. She doesn't trust those with ulterior motives, but she does trust her mentor.

Besides, this is a private transaction, so I don't believe she can do anything about it.

The ex-factory price of two million is mostly for commonly used drugs, and the quantity is still considerable. At least if she wanted to change the packaging, her current small truck wouldn't be able to hold it all.

Looking at the truck loaded with medicine, Lin Yue thought for a moment and said, "Teacher's wife, could I borrow this truck for a few days? I'll drive it away and return it to you after I unload it."

The pharmaceutical factory was owned by the teacher's wife, so of course her opinion had to be sought.

"Do you have a driver's license for this car?" the teacher's wife asked in surprise.

"Yes, don't worry, Mrs. Teacher." He took out his driver's license from his bag and showed it to his wife.

"Alright, you can drive it away then, but it'll be a rental, and you'll have to pay for the gas yourself," the teacher's wife said businesslike.

"I understand, I won't make things difficult for my teacher's wife." Lin Yue was still sensible and knew how to navigate social situations.

"Okay, then be careful on the road."

Professor Qi suggested that Lin Yue park her small truck directly in the warehouse to save her the trouble of making multiple trips, and Lin Yue readily agreed.

After saying goodbye to the two, Lin Yue went through her usual routine, but this time, instead of donating the medicine, she donated 50,000 jin of rice.

At this point, Lin Yue had prepared all the necessary supplies.

It's June 11th now, four days before the doomsday warning.

Lin Yue drove the truck to a large parking lot and stayed at home for three days. Except for picking up the meals she had ordered, she did not go out again.

On June 14th, he drove the truck to return it to his teacher's wife.

She also brought ten bags of good rice, half a pig, twenty catties of beef, and some seafood, explaining that the rice was missing when it was donated, the pork and beef were gifts from relatives, and the seafood had not been sold.

If there really is an apocalypse, although her mentor's family would certainly be protected by the government because they own a pharmaceutical factory, she also hopes that they can live a better life before the government intervenes.

Driving her own small truck, Lin Yue, on a whim, went to the city's wholesale market and bought all the snacks she thought were delicious.

For example, I'll buy 10,000 packs of each of spicy strips, pig's trotters, and chicken feet, and also sweep up all the self-heating rice, instant noodles, and other fast food that I forgot to stock up on before.

At this point, her savings amounted to only 413,000 yuan.

After packing her things, she went to retrieve the last day's meals and stored them in her spatial storage as well. She thought for a moment...

Finally, she bought five high-security doors, five iron doors that allow people to see through them, some steel materials—iron bars, and electrical wires—and had them delivered to her house.

If necessary, she will install a security door and an iron gate on the tenth-floor staircase and then connect it to electricity.
