Chapter 2 Urgent! Stocking up on supplies (I)



Ruan Jiaojiao couldn't wait to check her own space. She found that her system space was extremely large, boundless and there was no end in sight.

She wanted to test whether this space had the ability to preserve freshness, so she boiled a pot of hot water, poured a cup of water, and placed it in the space.

Planning to wait an hour to see how the hot water changes, she turned on her cell phone and began looking for large warehouses nearby.

Finally, I found a large, almost abandoned warehouse in the western suburbs. I contacted the warehouse owner and eventually rented the warehouse for 100,000 yuan a month. I also rented a large truck at the same time.

When Ruan Jiaojiao probed her mental power into the space again, she found that the hot water in the space was still steaming.

Then came a burst of ecstasy. This space could keep things fresh, so she didn't have to worry about the expiration date and could stockpile as much supplies as she wanted.

Ruan Jiaojiao immediately put on some makeup and changed into a set of clothes that was completely different from her usual style. The overall effect was that even familiar people would not recognize her.

Ruan Jiaojiao drove quickly to the largest comprehensive wholesale market in the city because she needed to buy a large quantity of supplies.

So she had her business cards ordered in advance. On the glittering golden card, it read "Head of the Purchasing Department of a certain group." The group's name was written in English, and coupled with the glittering gold film, it looked very wealthy.

Before coming here, Ruan Jiaojiao read many novels about hoarding, including apocalyptic novels, period novels, and time-travel novels. As long as it was about hoarding, Ruan Jiaojiao did not miss any of them.

She secretly felt lucky that she hadn't traveled to the apocalypse. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to eat after facing those disgusting zombies every day. Furthermore, the scariest thing about the apocalypse wasn't the zombies, but human nature.

Although conditions were more difficult in the 1960s and 1970s, at least the environment was peaceful and stable, and people were in good spirits.

After Ruan Jiaojiao entered the wholesale market, she made a series of inquiries and finally found the business with the largest throughput.

This business has a lot of customers and is doing good business. The boss is very busy and naturally has no time to take care of Ruan Jiaojiao.

Only one employee who looked like a new employee came up to me and asked, "How can I help you?"

Ruan Jiaojiao said, "I have quite a lot of things I want. Take a pen and write them down first."

Based on Ruan Jiaojiao's experience in reading period literature, in the 1960s and 1970s, rice and flour were staple foods and there was no need to worry about sales.

Moreover, judging by the price difference between modern food and food in the 1960s and 1970s, it can be said that food in the 1960s and 1970s was more expensive.

After all, productivity was relatively low at that time and supply was less than demand, so people could accumulate wealth by reselling grain, and then take advantage of the spring breeze of reform and opening up to buy land and courtyard houses.

Ruan Jiaojiao just didn't believe it. With these prophets and the supplies in hand, she thought, this person couldn't become a first-generation rich man and live a life of easy wins from then on.

"The quality of your rice is pretty good. Give me 5,000 tons. Also, give me 1,000 tons of Wuchang rice." Ruan Jiaojiao touched the rice.

Wuchang rice is what we usually eat at home. She likes it very much, so she keeps this rice for herself.

The employee's hand holding the paper and pen trembled, and he looked up in surprise and said, "5,000 tons? One ton is 2,000 kilograms. Do you really want 5,000 tons?"

"I know. Please write this down. And I want 5,000 tons of flour as well."

"Brown rice, black rice, and millet, all 2,000 tons."

Glutinous rice is usually consumed during holidays and is rarely eaten on weekdays. Noodles and flour are also very popular in the north, and Ruan Jiaojiao herself enjoys noodles.

"1,000 tons of glutinous rice, 5,000 tons of noodles, and 5,000 tons of flour."

"Do you need anything else?" The employee's face was full of smiles, his hands trembling. He suppressed his inner excitement and wrote down the words one by one.

"Does your business sell condiments? Soy sauce, white sugar, brown sugar, etc." Ruan Jiaojiao asked. "They have to be good quality. Don't fool me with some junk."

"Yes, yes, yes. How could we possibly fool you? Our boss also sells various oils, rapeseed oil, olive oil, salad oil, all kinds of oil." The employee explained with a smile on his face.

"I want the kind of soy sauce with zero additives. Do you have it?" Ruan Jiaojiao asked.

"Of course there is," the employee nodded. He thought to himself, "Even if there isn't one, I'll make it for you. This is a big deal." If it works, the commission is inevitable, and the employee is already imagining a bright future.

"3,000 bottles of light soy sauce, 3,000 bottles of zero-additive dark soy sauce, 3,000 bottles of oyster sauce, and 5,000 bottles of vinegar."

In the 1960s and 1970s, brown sugar was also in short supply. It was indispensable during childbirth and confinement period, so naturally there was no worry about its sales.

Ruan Jiaojiao pointed at the brown sugar and said, "200,000 catties of brown sugar, 50,000 catties of white sugar and rock sugar, and 30,000 catties of yellow sugar."

"50,000 barrels of rapeseed oil, 50,000 barrels of peanut oil, and 50,000 barrels of salad oil. Also, 20,000 barrels of corn oil, 30,000 barrels of sesame oil, and 30,000 barrels of olive oil."

When I cook, I usually add some sesame oil, which makes it very fragrant.

Ruan Jiaojiao thought about it in her mind and found that there was still a very important thing that she had not stocked up on, pork.

Pork was still in short supply in that era when everyone was short of food, so Ruan Jiaojiao planned to stock up as much as possible.

I also prefer to eat ribs, pig ears and pork, but I don’t eat much of the internal organs.

So Ruan Jiaojiao planned to stock up more ribs, pig ears, and pork, and stock up less of the offal that she didn't like.

Moreover, Ruan Jiaojiao remembered that in most of the novels she had read before, things like pig offal did not require tickets, so she could stock up less.
