After preparing all the kimchi and spicy hot pot, it was already dark. Hua Mi put the electric flatbed truck back into her Level 4 warehouse, snapped her fingers, and instantly returned to the supermarket to sleep.
She maintained her habits well; she was still not used to going out for walks in the evening unless absolutely necessary.
As night fell, Hua Mi casually wiped her body with a large bucket of mineral water, focusing on washing her buttocks, before lying on the second floor of the small supermarket playing on her phone.
She fell asleep without realizing it.
She was startled awake again when a notification suddenly appeared before her tightly closed eyes.
【!! Insufficient energy detected...】
【!! Insufficient energy detected...】
【!! Insufficient energy detected...】
The information must have been quite important, because it sent Hua Mi three notifications in a row.
The lights on the second floor of the supermarket flickered, which seemed to be due to unstable voltage.
Electricity... Hua Mi opened her blurry eyes and realized that even though the earthquake had been going on for so long, she hadn't worried about the electricity situation in her supermarket.
It's estimated that this post-apocalyptic supermarket provided her with the electricity.
What should we do if there's a lack of energy? Should we cut off her power?
She opened the control panel and checked the level 2 factory. The green health bar on it was completely empty, and a red lightning bolt icon had appeared.
It definitely needs charging.
Hua Mi looked down at her phone again. A Fu had sent her a message: the water plant was operating at full capacity to produce mineral water. The 100,000 bottles of mineral water produced after she left had been made, but there were too many people in the market who wanted water. The water plant planned to sell 50,000 bottles to her first, and the rest to people in Xiangcheng who came to buy water.
Furthermore, the water plant also wants to order another 200,000 1.5L mineral water bottles from her.
Hua Mi immediately made a phone call to the water treatment plant manager.
"I don't want the remaining 50,000 bottles of mineral water. Does your factory have a large generator set? A big factory like yours should be able to get these things, right?"
"Such channels exist, but the price..."
The factory manager put it vaguely, but in any case, 50,000 bottles of mineral water certainly couldn't compare to a large generator set.
Moreover, to keep the generator set running in this environment, a large amount of diesel fuel will be needed.
The channels must also be legal.
The factory manager was very confident. They had all the necessary paperwork and strong connections, so getting more diesel fuel wouldn't be a problem.
Hua Mi immediately smiled.
"Factory manager, money is no problem. Just get me a generator set, and I'll give you as many mineral water bottles as you want."
The two parties negotiated a price that was acceptable to each other. Hua Mi would provide the water plant with mineral water bottles, and the plant manager would provide her with a generator set and cover the diesel fuel needed thereafter.
Mutual cooperation and mutual benefit.
The factory manager acted quickly. Just as Afu brought Hua Mi a large truckload of bottled water, the factory manager had already sent people to move the generator set outside the ruins.
As previously agreed, Afu and the person delivering the generator set only needed to deliver the goods to the ruins in front of the Huami Supermarket.
Hua Mi will hire a city road clearing team to fix the road.
After the road was repaired, the workers went back to move bottled water and install generator sets.
This should take a few days... That's what everyone thinks.
So once the items are delivered, everyone can relax and go about their business.
However, less than half a day later, Hua Mi, holding a bowl of spicy hot pot, called the factory manager.
"I've already moved the generator set and bottled water. Send someone to install the generator set, and also tell Afu to come and pick up the truck."
The factory manager exclaimed "Huh?", not quite understanding what was going on. After thinking for a moment, he asked in confusion:
"Are the city's road clearing teams that amazing? They fixed the road so easily?"
"It's not fixed yet, but I've already moved the generator set next to my supermarket."
Hua Mi didn't offer much explanation. The world was about to end, and it would soon become bizarre and fantastical. What was the point of her explaining so much?
Who knows, the factory manager might not be alive the next day.
The factory manager was also bewildered. A generator set was about the size of a shipping container. Hua Mi had to find an overhead crane to transport such a large and heavy generator set into the ruins.
Sure enough, having Gong as a backer means having a wide network of connections.
The factory manager wasted no more time and immediately called to gather workers to install the generator set for Hua Mi.
Installing such a large device would take a considerable amount of time, so in order to save electricity, Hua Mi packed up the items in the supermarket, leaving only water and instant noodles for the workers, and went to the temporary first aid center to use the electricity to charge her device.
The makeshift aid center has electricity and provides survivors with three meals and two snacks a day, all free of charge!
It's free!!!
So when Hua Mi emerged from the ruins, she was picking up power banks from the rubble all the way.
She picks up any power bank she sees.
These things are definitely something everyone has now, or even several. So when Hua Mi came out of the ruins, she probably picked up dozens of different kinds of power banks.
She was overjoyed, feeling incredibly clever that with so many power banks, she could keep her phone powered up without worry.
Even if her phone loses signal, she can still play a single-player version of Candy Crush.
Thinking about it this way, it's all worth it, no matter how tired I am.
As a result, when she rode her flatbed cart to the temporary medical center, she found that, at some point, stalls had been set up outside the center, selling all sorts of things.
Of course, there are also people selling power banks, all of which are found and sold by weight.
They also sell brand new power banks, but they are a bit more expensive. However, they are still much cheaper than before the earthquake, costing only about ten yuan each.
So why didn't Hua Mi, who spent hours rummaging through the ruins and was exhausted, spend some money to buy dozens of kilograms of power banks?
Hua Mi was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth. In retaliation, she ran to the power bank stall and said in a gruff voice:
"Make it cheaper, I'll take all these power banks!"
The stall owner looked at Hua Mi with surprise. When he saw Hua Mi take out her phone to transfer money to him, he quickly got up and quoted a price.
Hua Mi cut his price in half, and the stall owner nodded in agreement without hesitation.
After receiving the money, the stall owner pointed to his large stall, which was piled high with power banks.
"This stall is yours, please, you're the generous one!"
Then, he casually slung his bag over his shoulder, left his stall, and continued digging for power banks in the ruins.
Watching the stall owner's hurried departure, Hua Mi felt that she might have been a bit impulsive. There were so many power banks, and she couldn't just put them into her Level 4 warehouse in front of everyone.
Hua Mi's eyes lit up when she saw a power strip behind the stall.
This line was pulled out from the temporary first aid center; I wonder who was so clever to pull it.
She immediately sat down in front of the original stall owner's stall, dragged over an unused power strip, and charged her mountain of power banks.
