Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan have been traveling abroad for a month and a half. At most, they will have to return to China in another month.
"Brother Yanming, do we still have any money?" Bi Qiaoan watched as Shen Yanming's money flowed out of his pockets every day, so much so that it was impossible to count.
Shen Yanming smiled and patted Bi Qiaoan's head, "There are many, many, many more."
Bi Qiaoan stared wide-eyed in shock, her expression amusing Shen Yanming. "The Shen Group has been operating for so many years and is already a behemoth. Even if I sold my shares at a low price back then, it was still an astronomical figure that ordinary people couldn't imagine."
It looks like we've been shopping non-stop for the past month and a half, but in reality, we've only spent about one-fifth of that amount.
"We're so rich! Should we keep buying and buying? It seems like we could buy so much stuff we'd never run out." Bi Qiaoan knew that Shen Yanming's space was almost full, but her own space was still empty, and their space was constantly expanding, so even if they continued to buy, they could still fit it all in.
"Ever since we were reborn and have a space again, I've been thinking, what if we time travel again someday? So I want to buy more supplies, the more supplies we have, the more secure we feel."
Bi Qiaoan nodded after hearing this. In fact, she was the same way. Perhaps the shadows in her past life were too great, and she always lacked a sense of security in this life.
The supermarket was handling its inventory in an orderly manner, and Shen Yanming obtained the contact information of various manufacturers through the supermarket manager.
For the next two weeks, Shen Yanming took Bi Qiaoan to various factories to place orders every day. Because they were doing it under the guise of a supermarket and paying in cash, almost no factories gave Shen Yanming any trouble.
In just half a month, Shen Yanming collected another batch of seasonings, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels, toilet paper, sanitary napkins, bed sheets and duvet covers, quilts and air conditioning blankets, tents, pure milk, skin care products, cosmetics, candy and biscuits, etc. into the space.
By the end of September, Shen Yanming was preparing to return to China with Bi Qiaoan. In the past two months, Shen Yanming's 15-acre storage space had been crammed full, and Bi Qiaoan's space, which was about 2 acres in size, had been filled with supplies that had no expiration date.
At this moment, Bi Qiaoan finally couldn't help but speak up, "Brother Yanmin, I want to go to Meicher Company."
Shen Yanming was stunned. What did Meichel Company do? He had never heard of it!
Bi Qiaoan could tell what Shen Yanming was thinking just by looking at his expression, so she explained, "Meicher Company is a company that specializes in cultivating flowers. They have been cultivating new flower varieties for decades. I want to visit and buy some seeds. Perhaps this is the last time in my life."
After hearing this, Shen Yanming took Bi Qiaoan to Mechel and visited Mechel's greenhouse. Shen Yanming was shocked, saying that it was so beautiful. He said that if these beautiful flowers disappeared one day in the future, it would be a disaster for human aesthetics.
Bi Qiaoan bought two sets of all the seeds, bulbs, and seedlings that Meiqier was selling, and happily followed Shen Yanming back to the hotel. As soon as they got back to the hotel, she couldn't wait to enter her spatial dimension.
One copy was given to Shen Yanming for safekeeping, and the other was sown by himself.
Bi Qiaoan found a piece of land that had not yet been cultivated, and surrounded it with colorful ribbons to indicate that this land would be her own exclusive flower field in the future.
Then she happily planted the seedlings and bulbs, hoping that the flowers would grow strong and healthy. In such a dark world as the apocalypse, seeing these flowers should be an extremely happy thing.
Perhaps because she had never planted flowers before, or perhaps because Bi Qiaoan planted a large variety of flowers at once, this time the planting space was expanded by five acres, and now Bi Qiaoan's planting space is twenty acres in size.
In other words, Shen Yanming now has an extra five acres of space to store supplies.
However, he couldn't keep taking advantage of the same place, so Shen Yanming decided to let Lan Guo go.
Before leaving, Shen Yanming handed over the supermarket to the manager, who told him that all he needed to do was submit the expense reports to him online every month.
The two could have flown directly from Lan Kingdom to Qinghua Kingdom, but Shen Yanming decided to transit through Bing Kingdom instead. The reason was simple: Bing Kingdom was famous for its furs, which were extremely effective at keeping warm.
As soon as he got off the plane, Shen Yanming contacted local fur merchants and bought hundreds of different styles of men's and women's fur coats. He then bought a ticket back to China without stopping.
It wasn't until they set foot on Qinghua Kingdom's soil again that Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan felt at ease. They had gone on a shopping spree in several countries, and luckily, no one noticed anything amiss.
Now that I'm back, I need to tone everything down a bit.
Bi Qiaoan and Shen Yanming arrived home on the afternoon of October 3rd. After a quick wash, they slept soundly until noon the next day when they were woken up by hunger.
With at least a week left before reporting to their new workplace, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan discussed it and decided to go all out and bring back all the warehouses of supplies they had prepared a few months ago. They figured they could feel more at ease once they had them back.
After discussing their plans, the two had lunch and then drove to the southern province. After several hours' drive, they arrived in the southern province just as darkness fell and headed towards the warehouse under cover of night.
The warehouse was in the suburbs, sparsely populated and without security cameras. Shen Yanming opened the warehouse door and, thankfully, everything was still there.
The initial reason for storing the supplies here was for convenience, but while it made things convenient for himself, it also made things convenient for others. So Shen Yanming took a chance and prayed that the supplies would still be there when he came to retrieve them.
Sure enough, God was kind to me!
Bi Qiaoan followed Shen Yanming to three more warehouses. Like the first one, all three warehouses were located in remote and deserted areas, but fortunately, the contents were still there.
The timing is perfect. In peacetime, almost no one dares to steal large quantities of supplies. But in a year or two, in the apocalypse, even if social order is still in place, when people can't survive, who will care about laws and morality? At that time, these supplies will inevitably be lost.
By the time they finished collecting supplies from several warehouses, it was already dawn. Bi Qiaoan and Shen Yanming weren't sleepy at all, so they decided to stroll around Nanshi, the capital of Nan Province. Early in the morning, the streets were bustling with people, some preparing for work, some going out for breakfast, and some going to school together. The sounds of people, birds, and car horns made the city feel especially vibrant and lively.
Perhaps all cities have a vibrant, everyday life, but I haven't stopped to appreciate it properly in a long time, so I haven't noticed it.
Bi Qiaoan gazed greedily at all of this. One day, all this liveliness would vanish. What would be left of this city then? Shallow, emaciated, desperate, and weeping?
Bi Qiaoan dared not think any further. There was nothing she could do; she could not change the fate of these people.
Shen Yanming held Bi Qiaoan's hand, "It will be alright, everything will be alright!"
Looking into Shen Yanming's eyes, Bi Qiaoan nodded, "I believe we can all pull through!"
