"Yeah, she was already rich before the apocalypse. She probably married into a wealthy family long ago and wouldn't even bother with poor people like us," Ji Xiaoxiao said self-deprecatingly.
But she made a decision in her heart: she would not let Jiang Zhi get away with it.
Jiang Zhi walked two or three kilometers in the city. Walking in the snow was not easy, and it took her more than an hour to cover those two or three kilometers.
She also killed a mutated raccoon along the way. It was probably an escaped raccoon from the zoo after the apocalypse. It was severely mutated and had a very ugly appearance.
This little raccoon has a piece of red crystal in its brain, so it's quite an unexpected bonus for today.
Jiang Zhi put away the motorcycle and moved the off-road vehicle out of her spatial storage. It was definitely more comfortable being wrapped in metal, and at least she could turn on the heater. The motorcycle, which was practically flesh wrapped in metal, didn't even have a windshield; she'd freeze to death riding it back home.
Jiang Zhi drove slowly onto the main road and saw a team of about ten people wearing military overcoats and carrying guns moving the cars blocking the road. Among them were several people with superpowers.
"Stop the car and get out for inspection."
Two soldiers holding small red flags blocked Jiang Zhi's way. Jiang Zhi stepped on the brakes, opened the door, and got out of the car.
"Hello, this is my identification." Jiang Zhi took out the certificate given to her by the base.
"You're from the Shuofang base, so how did you get this vehicle across the road?" one of them asked in a serious tone.
Jiang Zhi: "..." Sure enough, there are no stupid people in this world.
“We took a detour, a side road into the city. I’m coming back on the main road to try my luck.” Jiang Zhi took out a paper map from the driver’s seat and pointed out a side road to them.
Large vehicles cannot enter through the side roads. There are many narrow alleys inside, leading in all directions. Even if they investigate, they will not know exactly which one Jiang Zhi took. There will always be one that leads to the same place.
"Alright, get in the car and wait. These cars blocking the road will be moved soon."
They are clearly well-trained professionals.
"Excuse me, are you the leader, young man?" Jiang Zhi asked the man who had stopped her car earlier.
He was wearing a military green overcoat, a woolen hat, and a satellite phone on his waist. Even without saying a word, you could see his upright character.
"I am Wei Ming, the captain of the 13th Guard Squad of the Shuofang Base."
"My name is Jiang Zhi. I've accepted a mission from the base and I'm heading back now."
The two exchanged names, and Jiang Zhi didn't get in the car; instead, she helped them move the car.
"Are you also a superhuman?" Wei Ming asked, noticing Jiang Zhi's demeanor, which clearly indicated she wasn't an ordinary person.
"No, I used to practice martial arts before the natural disaster. I'm just stronger than the average person," Jiang Zhi shook her head.
She doesn't want to reveal herself yet.
Wanfu was left in the car, the engine was running, and the air conditioning was on so it wasn't cold.
The Thirteenth Squad consists of sixteen people. They are the advance team, ordered to clear the roads into the city. In addition, there is a team of excavators responsible for road repair.
There were only five or six cars, and they were quickly moved. Jiang Zhi waved goodbye to them and drove off in a flash.
"Captain, you're quite the ladies' man!"
"I think this girl is good; she's not pretentious and she's very capable."
"Captain, chase bravely, we'll fly for you."
As soon as Jiang Zhi left, the others began to tease Wei Ming.
Wei Ming, feeling embarrassed, patted the person next to him and waved his hand, saying, "Go away, have you finished your work? Don't start talking nonsense!"
The cars that had been blocking the road were all moved. Jiang Zhi sped all the way to the entrance of the base, got out of the car, and spent 10 points, which was the parking fee mentioned earlier.
This fee is charged to every vehicle that enters the parking area, regardless of how long it is parked; it earns 10 points.
Of course, if the base finds the car is unclaimed during an inspection, it will be towed away.
Upon entering the base, Jiang Zhi first went to the mission hall to hand over the mission. This mission was issued by the base hospital. Jiang Zhi presented thirty adrenaline injections, and 600 points were credited to her card.
"Thank you so much. These injections are all intact and can save at least thirty people," the staff member said with a smile.
"You're welcome," Jiang Zhi replied.
This can be considered a settlement of money and goods.
With points in hand, Jiang Zhi planned to visit the base supermarket. This supermarket was originally a supply and marketing cooperative. After the apocalypse, the base management allocated both storefronts to it and built a relatively large supermarket.
The prices inside were much higher than when they were brought in, and Jiang Zhi mainly wanted to know the price of gasoline.
The gasoline currently available is mostly from reserves or salvage operations during periods of extreme heat, and the ability to supply gasoline to gas stations has almost completely been lost. However, there were large reserves of gasoline in the past, so the supply can last for a while longer.
Jiang Zhi glanced at the numbers: before the apocalypse, 1L of gasoline cost 12.8 yuan, but after the apocalypse, 1L of gasoline would cost 200 points.
This price... you really can't afford it without some capital.
Jiang Zhi just exchanged 600 points, which can only buy 3L of gasoline. What can 3L do?
They had previously stockpiled enough oil to fill several tanker trucks.
These are all illegal oils sourced from the US, not through legitimate channels, hence the slightly lower price.
Jiang Zhi bought two jin of rice, a bottle of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce, and two packs of instant noodles with chili oil, spending 86 points.
She bought all this just to put on a show. There are too many eyes around, and if she keeps eating what she's already hoarded, people will become suspicious.
After driving home, Jiang Zhi did the same thing as last time: drained most of the oil from the car, then covered it with a lid and went upstairs.
As soon as Wanfu entered the house, it jumped out of Jiang Zhi's pocket and hurriedly ran into the bathroom to relieve itself in the sand in the cardboard box.
Jiang Zhi glanced at it and thought, "Goodness, thank goodness it didn't spill on me."
Before the apocalypse, Jiang Zhi didn't think about cat litter when she was stockpiling supplies. She simply found some sand in her spatial storage, put it in a box, and that became a natural cat litter box.
She goes to the bathroom in the space herself when she needs to use the toilet.
When it got extremely hot, she dug a septic tank in her spatial dimension. There are plenty of tutorial videos online; anyone can do it.
The drainpipe under the toilet in the villa is connected to a septic tank, so she doesn't need to worry about using the toilet.
As for the wilderness, who would worry about that?
After Wanfu finished using the toilet, he even knew to cover his poop with sand. Jiang Zhi found it smelly, so she quickly moved the thing into her spatial storage and threw it into some unknown mountain to decompose naturally.
After driving all day, Jiang Zhi was tired and just wanted to eat something simple for dinner. She hadn't eaten lunch, only nibbling on a soft bread roll on the way, while Wanfu ate a small rice ball.
After lighting the stove, Jiang Zhi took out two snacks from her spatial storage: grilled squid and potatoes, and grilled cold noodles.
Wanfu, let's have some braised duck leg tonight.
Jiang Zhi boiled the braised duck legs twice in boiling water to dilute the seasonings, which made Wan Fucai so lucky.
Wanfu is a country cat, and it eats whatever Jiang Zhi eats without being picky.
After the apocalypse, we found this little thing. What about getting pet vaccinations or feeding it fine cat food? Of course, we didn't have those kinds of conditions. It all depended on Wanfu's own little body to survive.
