Chapter 3: Continue Stockpiling



So Jiang Zhi booked a single-level apartment, a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment with a kitchen and bathroom, 65 square meters, with a second-floor viewing platform, and it was fully furnished, including both soft and hard furnishings, for a total of 3.94 million yuan including shipping.

Originally, it would have only cost 3.84 million, but Jiang Zhi had certain requirements for the invisibility of the appearance, so the designer had to work on the optics, which added 100,000.

Jiang Zhi was very satisfied with this.

There were also various items in the supermarket's household goods section, such as sanitary napkins, tissues, and even diapers, as well as various kitchen utensils, laundry detergent, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and the like, all ordered from manufacturers in one go. Jiang Zhi bought ten tons of sanitary napkins and toilet paper alone.

The future weather will be extremely hot, and to survive, sufficient cooling equipment is essential. Jiang Zhi's first thought is ice, which is useful during periods of extreme cold. The seafood market has a dedicated ice-making factory, so Jiang Zhi bought a large quantity of ice along with a large quantity of seafood.

To minimize ice loss, Jiang Zhi directly booked the extra ice production of four ice factories for half a month. She didn't care about wasting some dead fish and shrimp to obtain ice, so she simply placed various purchased fish and shrimp in a warehouse rented by the sea, and then had the ice factories deliver ice to the warehouse every day.

In this way, Jiang Zhi obtained a large amount of ice, which was much more cost-effective than making ice herself.

However, Jiang Zhi still bought seven or eight small ice makers, which was better than nothing.

If she can persevere until the extreme cold, she will be able to collect natural ice blocks during that time.

Besides cooling, heating facilities are very important in extremely cold weather.

Jiang Zhi found out there were many things that could keep her warm. She went on a shopping spree, browsing through all sorts of products that could generate heat, including hot water bottles, electric hot water bags, heat packs, electric heaters, electric blankets, and fan heaters.

Besides seafood, Jiang Zhi also gets takeout from seafood restaurants every time. In addition to seafood, she accidentally discovered several very affordable fast food restaurants online, where you can eat your fill for twelve yuan and there is no limit to the dishes.

Shouldn't we take advantage of this?

So she went to these stores and ordered four or five thousand different set meals under the guise of customized staff meals for the film crew, which were all stored in the time-freezing zone of the space.

She took the food out of the space a day later, and it was still piping hot, exactly the same as when she put it in.

Besides these inexpensive meals, Jiang Zhi also packed various banquet dishes from the hotel. She packed them up wherever she went.

She ate everything she saw and wanted to eat, including boiled fish, dry pot chicken, braised fish, cold rabbit, black chicken soup, squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, grilled gluten, fried skewers, barbecue, cold noodles, and other snacks, and then packed them up to go.

Besides main dishes, Jiang Zhi also ordered steamed buns, mantou (steamed bread), twisted rolls, and even pickles from breakfast stalls. She chose five good steamed bun shops and ordered two hundred of each type of steamed bun and mantou every day. She loved beef and braised pork fillings, so she ordered fifty extra of each of those. After doing this for half a month, Jiang Zhi had amassed countless steamed buns and mantou.

In the apocalypse, apart from the very beginning when she could still enjoy a delicious and visually appealing meal, she never had a decent meal again.

It wasn't just compressed biscuits; it was all sorts of odds and ends from the communal meals. When people had nothing decent to eat, they would put anything into the pot to boil. After the water boiled, they would add compressed biscuits, sausages, broken instant noodles, grass roots, tree bark... even soil. As long as it could be boiled successfully and wouldn't kill anyone, they would add it.

Cook a large pot of food, and give each person a small bowl.

Those who are able should eat more, and those who are not should eat less.

When they ran out of food, they started eating people.

It can be described as a collapse of the system, moral decay, and moral depravity.

Therefore, Jiang Zhi values ​​food more than clothing.

Having lived through that darkest of times, she returned with an unparalleled reverence for food. She didn't wolf down her food or eat ungracefully just because she hadn't eaten in so long. Instead, she savored each bite, appreciating the joy that food brought her.

She took some time to go to a suburban farm and bought a small number of live poultry, pigs, cows, and sheep. She didn't dare to buy too many, as the space would allow them to reproduce, and since the post-apocalyptic world was evolving, these things should also evolve.

Mutant pigs and mutant cattle can be slaughtered and eaten once they are subdued. However, very few domesticated animals have survived extreme heat or cold.

Most of them evolved from wild animals.

There were also fresh vegetables, as well as sweet potatoes and potatoes that could stave off hunger. She rented a truck and went directly to the place of origin to pick them up one truckload at a time, not daring to relax for a moment.

Jiang Zhi spent a month and a half purchasing various supplies, and when she returned home, she spent a lot of money online.

She bought everything she could see and could afford, including small bread rolls, chicken feet, sunflower seeds, peanuts, candy, duck necks, and beef jerky. The total amount she spent was several hundred thousand yuan.

Actually, a batch of these were also distributed during the wholesale process.

She filled in warehouse addresses, hired someone to receive the goods for her, and then Jiang Zhi took her passport and went abroad. Some things can't be bought in China; you have to go abroad to get them.

Jiang Zhi's first stop was the United States. It was already mid-April, and the people there were already wearing light clothing such as short sleeves. Jiang Zhi didn't have time to see how the people there were living.

She donned a muscle suit, an expensive human skin mask and hood, wore men's clothes, and used makeup to draw a centipede-like scar on her face, added dragon tattoos to her hands, and sported curly wool hair. She disguised herself to the point that her deceased mother wouldn't recognize her before taking action.

Here, guns are legal, and she can find shops to buy them. Within the legal limits, she traveled to several states, spending a hundred million on arms, and also stockpiled large quantities of gasoline and diesel, along with about a hundred gas cylinders.

She also bought five motorcycles, and plans to buy a few more domestically produced motorcycles, electric scooters, and bicycles after returning to China. After the earthquake, the roads were almost completely destroyed; sometimes a four-wheeled vehicle was less desirable than a two-wheeled motorcycle.
