Chapter 19 Food City
There were also some miscellaneous daily necessities, such as tin foil, steel wool, rags, various pots, pans, buckets, umbrellas, rainwater collectors, vacuum bags, vacuum packaging machines, needles and thread and sewing boxes, small hangers and large folding hangers, mops, brooms, dustpans, plastic wrap, nail clippers and razors, clips and tweezers, glue guns and glue sticks, whetstones, straw mats, etc., ranging from 50 to 100 items each. Some of the items had a larger total amount, so I bought more.
Then there's the lighter.
There are fifty pieces in a plate, totaling 100 yuan.
Jiang Rong bought 50 boards in total.
There are also gas tanks. A small gas tank costs about 70 yuan, and a normal-sized one costs around 120 yuan.
Jiang Rong bought 200 small gas cylinders and 300 large gas cylinders as well as the corresponding connecting equipment.
Usually a family of three can use a small tank of gas for one month, and a normal-sized tank can last for nearly two months. Of course, this standard also depends on the frequency of use. If it is used frequently, the time will naturally be much shorter.
What Jiang Rong prepared can be used for a very long time.
However, these are still empty bottles and will have to be sent to the gas company to be refilled later. Jiang Rong plans to deliver them in batches and in different locations later.
Jiang Rong wandered around the wholesale market, wanting to stock up on almost everything he saw.
When I passed by the camping store, I walked straight in. The store was not small and had a complete range of items.
Jiang Rong bought hundreds of tents and sleeping bags at one go.
There are a variety of things in here, but most of them are tools, and there is even a first aid kit.
Moreover, this full-equipment first aid kit contains many simple first aid equipment and medicines.
There are also first aid kits of the same type.
Jiang Rong also bought hundreds of sets.
If we ever lose contact or have to separate in the future, these may be of some help.
In addition, there are also a wide range of other tool products.
Jiang Rong bought two hundred multifunctional military knives, 10 multifunctional hand-crank radios, and several wireless radios of other brands.
Soon after the natural disaster, the whole world will face large-scale water, electricity and network outages. After that, it was restored intermittently several times, but each time some small areas would be cut off again for various reasons within a few days of recovery. Later, the base gave up the attempt to connect electricity because the supply was too high. Only some special departments and workers could enjoy the treatment of electricity.
As for water sources, there is still ice and snow in extreme cold weather. When it comes to extreme drought, water can be replenished by digging wells in the early stage. In the later stage, the water level is getting lower and lower. Large-scale floods due to competition for water sources will occur every few days.
At that time, life was very difficult for both humans and mutant animals and plants, and the atmosphere in the whole world was extremely violent.
Jiang Rong was now thinking back on the events of his past life, and it felt like a dream, too dark to be real.
There is a huge sense of disconnection from the peaceful world I am in now.
If only it were just a dream, that would be great.
Jiang Rong shook his head helplessly.
Jiang Rong was distracted for a moment, then came back to continue.
Then, as she was walking around, she discovered a set of exquisitely crafted crossbows.
It looks quite heavy, as the crossbow body is made of iron, and even the arrows are made of iron.
Afterwards, he asked the boss, who said that it was not for sale but only for display. Jiang Rong withdrew his thoughts with some disappointment.
Because it is difficult to buy a crossbow, in the early days of the end of the world, if this kind of crossbow can be used skillfully, it can be of great help, directly improving the defense and attack power by several levels.
Jiang Rong himself knows how to use it. He got one by chance in his previous life and practiced with it for a long time, but it was damaged in a battle later.
This is also the only thing she protects at all costs and won't let those people take it away.
Whoever tries to snatch this thing from her will be killed.
However, that was after she returned home and had no more worries in her heart.
People who have nothing to worry about are more likely to go crazy and fight...
Anyway, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. During that period, anyone who was not too much stronger than her would have to take a detour when they saw her.
After all, no one wants to be entangled by a madman.
Jiang Rong was disappointed, but it was not that she couldn't buy this thing, she just didn't think of it before.
She could go online and buy professional archery equipment, then bring it home and try to modify it herself.
Jiang Rong bought it right away without any delay. He directly opened Taobao on his mobile phone and searched for a while. He chose a brand store with a better quality assurance. He placed a total of 500 orders and bought 50,000 corresponding hair clippers.
I also searched online and downloaded some videos and specific knowledge on the production of crossbows and arrows, so that I can study them when I have free time.
By that time, she, who was made of iron, would definitely not be able to do it.
Then we can only make more wooden ones. Although the effect will be slightly worse, it will definitely be enough for self-defense as long as we don’t encounter any powerful or high-level mutant beasts.
After the end of the world, mutant beasts will evolve slowly and will not be incredibly strong from the beginning. This will give weak humans a chance to catch their breath.
In short, after Jiang Rong buys this place, he will probably have to go to the nearby building materials market to buy some things that he can use in the future.
In addition to this crossbow, the store also has axe, fishing rod, compass, window-breaking pen, waterproof gloves, life blanket, escape rope, fire blanket, life jacket, stab-proof vest, night vision goggles, telescope, iron rod, folding ladder, folding table and chairs and various tool boxes.
Jiang Rong stocked up on a little of everything.
Especially telescopes, night vision goggles and compasses, which are more practical items for survival in the wild.
Finally, Jiang Rong bought 500 oxygen tanks, the kind that come fully inflated, from this store.
For backup.
After buying these, Jiang Rong left his address, paid the deposit, and left the store to go to the next one.
After that, the things she bought were more scattered, and she almost went through the entire wholesale market, from afternoon to evening.
For example, baseball bats, tactical axes, pliers, door blockers, engineer axes, multi-functional engineer shovels, crowbars, jacks, folding stakes, electric saws, steel knives, large and small scissors, various tendon cloth and waterproof canvas, safety rope sets, multi-functional knives, wire, barbed wire, hammers, screwdrivers, various safety ropes, wire ropes, nails, whistles and maps.
The quantities purchased varied, but were almost never less than 100. Some of them overlapped, but Jiang Rong stockpiled some of the equipment and machinery, which might have different specific uses.
Jiang Rong was not in a hurry to return to the warehouse in the evening. She called the gatekeeper to discuss something, paid him 50 yuan in overtime pay, and then drove her affordable car directly to the largest food city in the city.
By the time Jiang Rong arrived at his destination, it was around eight o'clock in the evening.
It was already completely dark, and the streets were crowded with people coming out for dinner or dinner parties.
Jiang Rong was not in a hurry. He bought a bucket full of barbecue for thirty yuan and ate while walking around.
The food stall area here covers a huge area. There are ten snack streets that are so long that you can't see the end of them, arranged in an orderly manner.
There are also various barbecue stalls, grilled fish stalls, and spicy crayfish stalls.
There are dozens of tables in front of each stall, but there are not many people sitting there at the moment.
Jiang Rong estimated that the place would gradually become crowded with people after 11pm, all of whom would come out for a midnight snack.
In addition to the snack street on this side, there is also a large shopping mall and various food shops on the other side, as well as two very long clothing streets and an amusement park.
There are so many things to see and so many people to see.
