The two signed a two-year rental contract and Sinan started to renovate the house.
According to her dream, in one month, the world will experience an unprecedented high temperature outbreak. The temperature will gradually rise from the acceptable 37 or 38 degrees to over 60 degrees. Countless people will die from heat stroke and heat stroke around the world, thus triggering a series of natural disasters.
The place where she was located was in the southwest of Country Z, and the seasons were always distinct. Even if it was very hot in summer, the temperature never exceeded 40 degrees.
But according to the scenes in the dream, one month later, Xingcheng will be like other regions and other countries, with rising temperatures for several months, until most of the country's power supply equipment is paralyzed and the number of human deaths reaches a horrifying number. Only then will the temperature drop and severe weather with hail and heavy rains will begin.
The dream she had could not predict the specific time of the natural disaster, but she remembered the approximate month. In order to cope with the high temperature and subsequent power outages, the first thing she had to do was to replace the electronic fingerprint lock with a sturdy anti-theft door, and then build an iron door at the entrance of the house for protection, so as to prevent the electronic door lock from being unable to be opened after the power outage, and someone breaking in later would pose a threat to her as a single woman.
She checked the air conditioners in the room and found that they were all custom-made high-end foreign air conditioners with excellent cooling and heating effects. She had no plan to replace them. She only planned to build an insulating shed over the air conditioners to prevent the scorching sun from melting the air conditioners when the temperature is high.
Next, she customized solar panels and installed them on the left side of the large balcony outside the living room. She built a small insulated shed on the right side to raise chickens and ducks. She also built a small fish pond in the middle of the balcony to raise fish, so that she could do both planting and breeding.
The next step was to replace all the indoor windows with tempered glass to prevent bad weather from damaging the windows and causing leaks in the house.
After the natural disaster begins, the successive bad weather will catch people off guard. If they want to protect themselves, in addition to stockpiling a large amount of supplies, they must also prepare for the future and start a series of self-sufficiency.
Planting and breeding are genes engraved in the bones of Chinese people and cannot be abandoned, and Sinan is no exception.
There are only four entrances on the floor where Cheng Wei's cousin's house is located, and there are passages of more than ten meters between residents on each floor. There is no situation where doors are facing doors or households are facing each other.
Sinan paid double the price and asked the renovation workers to work overtime. They first installed an iron door in front of the passage belonging to 1501. Only an old man who was disturbed by the noise of the renovation came out to take a look. He didn't say anything, looked for a while and then went back. The renovation went relatively smoothly.
While the workers continued to install insulation sheds, heating panels, build chicken coops, and repair fish ponds, Sinan also began to purchase and stockpile various supplies in large quantities.
The space is very large and has a constant temperature, so living things cannot be stored there. The natural disaster will last for many years, so the first supplies to be purchased are naturally various types of rice, flour, grain, oil, and cereals that are durable and can be stored for a long time.
Si Nan went straight to the largest wholesale market for rice, grain, oil and other foods in Xingcheng and ordered a large amount of rice, flour, grain, oil, various condiments, dried black fungus, dried kelp, dried mushrooms and other dry goods, especially salt, dried chili peppers, dried peppercorns, cooking oil, etc. These things were hard to get in the later period of the natural disaster. As a person who had been eating heavy-tasting food since childhood, Si Nan felt that the food had no taste if one of them was missing. With sufficient rice and flour, the food would be more delicious, so she was willing to buy more and store them.
She asked the bosses to deliver their goods to a suburban warehouse she had just rented, and moved all the goods into the space at night when no one was around.
For fear that ordering too much food would be noticed, she traveled to several cities and spent nearly seven hundred thousand to stockpile rice, flour, and grains, all of which she put into the space. After returning to Xingcheng to get paid, she saw that the house had been decorated the way she wanted, so she began to stockpile other supplies.
Various canned foods, instant noodles, sugars, meats, fruits, compressed biscuits, high-calorie chocolate, functional drinks, melon seeds, peanuts and other snacks were all purchased in large quantities. A batch of fresh fruits and vegetables were also ordered and the boss was asked to deliver them to the designated warehouse location.
A boss curiously asked her if she wanted to open a supermarket. If she did, he could give her a discount if the sales volume was large.
Si Nan looked at the balance of less than 500,000 yuan in his bank card, smiled bitterly, and shook his head to refuse.
Money is easy to spend but hard to earn. She stayed in the hospital for more than three months, and her company fired her on the grounds that she had been absent from the job for a long time.
Of course, she was not someone who could be easily bullied. After being discharged from the hospital, she went to the company and made a fuss, and got her own severance compensation through labor arbitration, receiving more than 70,000 yuan in compensation.
After spending all sorts of money on these 70,000 plus the 1.5 million that came later, less than one-third was left, so of course he had to buy important supplies.
What is most lacking after a natural disaster is not only food, but also medicine, in addition to various tents, backpacks, sleeping bags, moisture-proof mats, air cushions, down jackets and pants, windproof pants, stoves, compasses, multi-functional kettles, flashlights, life jackets, assault boats, rafts, etc., as well as various knives and self-defense weapons for outdoor survival.
Sinan doubled his purchases of all the utensils he could think of, focusing on various magnetic stoves, butane portable gas tank stoves, large water storage buckets, cat litter, and so on.
After the natural disaster, there was no water, electricity or gas, so if you wanted to cook, you could only use primitive methods.
If it is indoors, it is not very dangerous. But if it is outdoors, the fire and the aroma of food can attract many dangerous beasts and humans. If you want to cook food, you have to act quickly. It doesn't hurt to stock up some gas tanks.
After the water supply was cut off, water supply became a big problem. People can survive for several days without food, but if they don’t drink water for several days, they may die.
Besides, after the water supply is cut off, there is no water to flush the toilet. It may be okay for a day or two, but if it lasts for more than ten days or half a month, the smell is simply fatal.
So she bought a dozen large barrels that could hold more than ten tons of water. At night, she would drain water from them frantically, filling the barrels and putting them into the space.
We also ordered a lot of cat litter and stored bags of it in the space in case of emergency.
Her dreams were fragmented and she could only remember the general idea after waking up, but every time she remembered that she was in deep danger. In order to protect herself, it was necessary to buy some knives and weapons for self-defense.
Si Nan is 1.65 meters tall, weighs 95 kilograms, is thin, and works hard. She seldom exercises. It is obviously unrealistic for her to fight someone head-on with a knife. If she wants to save her life, she can only use dirty tricks. The weapons suitable for women with weak fighting power are often small needle crossbows and thermal weapons.
Country Z is a country that is notorious for its strict control over hot weapons and knives. Ordinary people cannot even buy larger knives, let alone hot weapons that can be fatal in one blow.
After much thought, she went to an old blacksmith shop outside the suburbs of Xingcheng and ordered a few long swords and short daggers. She also paid a high price to ask the old blacksmith to make five small military crossbows the size of washbasins according to the improved drawings on the Internet. The arrows were all sharp iron arrows half an arm's length.
This crossbow is equipped with a powerful spring and has a very fast firing rate. The small arrows can penetrate a thick down jacket and have very little recoil, making it most suitable for women to use for self-defense.
Si Nan discovered the old blacksmith when the company came to the suburbs for a team-building event last year. His technique of making farm tools and knives was very similar to that of the blacksmith in the small town of Zizhu where Si Nan grew up. At that time, Si Nan chatted with the old blacksmith for a while and said that he would ask him to make a few kitchen knives when he had time.
Now he found an old blacksmith and ordered nearly twenty weapons to be made at once. The old blacksmith kept muttering to himself and kept asking Si Nan what he was doing with them.
Si Nan had no choice but to lie and made up a random excuse to fool him. He then doubled the original price. Only then did the old blacksmith stop asking questions and asked her to pick up the goods in half a month.
After returning from the suburbs, Sinan went around the major pharmacies in Xingcheng without stopping, buying all kinds of cold medicines, anti-inflammatory drugs, alcohol, hemostatic powder, vitamins and other medicines.
Because he had no connections and could not buy too many medicines to avoid attracting other people's attention, Si Nan chose to forgo purchasing many high-priced or rare drugs.
Then I stockpiled a lot of daily necessities such as paper towels, sanitary napkins, toothpaste and toothbrushes, towels, needles and thread, bedding, etc.
Then she went around the various restaurants she liked to eat at and ordered many common dishes, such as Sinan's favorite hot pot, roast duck, stewed dishes, seafood and various braised and stir-fried dishes, and she didn't leave out any steamed buns or steamed buns. She would order more than a thousand at a time and prepay the money in advance, which made the restaurant owners very happy and they would pack up the food for her as quickly as possible.
After finishing all this, more than half a month had passed, and Si Nan's weapon was also ready. She took the crossbow, stood in the farmyard of the blacksmith shop, installed five arrows, aimed at a tree not far away, and pulled the trigger -
"Swish——" accompanied by a slight sound of breaking through the air, the arrow flew out at an extremely fast speed and hit the tree trunk at the bottom, making a dull "thump" sound. The bark that was hit instantly shattered into pieces, and a lot of wood chips flew in the air. The round iron arrow at the tail of the arrow without any decoration trembled slightly.
Si Nan walked over and found that the iron arrow had penetrated the tree trunk about five centimeters. It took some effort to push it in. He was overjoyed and paid the balance readily. Before leaving, he mentioned the coming end of the world to the old blacksmith.
"Uncle Li, there are rumors online that the end of the world is coming. When that happens, natural disasters and man-made calamities will continue. I think you are doing well, and you have both old and young people at home. Why don't you buy some more food and store it at home to prepare for the coming doomsday."
Half a month ago, Si Nan appeared in major forums every day, posting some news about the coming doomsday. Of course, they were quickly deleted and harmonized by the Internet police. She even received a warning from the Internet police of a forum, asking her not to spread false rumors, otherwise she would be held legally responsible.
She was a little depressed at the time. She was not a saint and did not have the heart to save the world, but when she came to this world, no matter what situation she was in, there would always be times when she felt the beauty of the world and received help from others. If the end of the world was really as devastating as her dream, and it happened one after another, as a person who could predict it in advance, she hoped to do her best to help people who were already struggling in the world to prepare in advance and have an easier time in the future natural disasters.
Unfortunately, the Internet police deleted the posts too quickly. Very few people could see her posts, and even fewer believed them. She stopped for several days because of this.
One day later, she found that someone had posted the same post as hers online, but before she could contact the other party, the post was deleted.
Every day after that, she would regularly issue a doomsday warning. No matter if anyone saw it or believed it, at least she had done what she thought she should do and was not ashamed of her conscience. Whether others believed it or not was none of her business.
