Banxia wiped the sweat from her forehead; she seemed to have overestimated herself!
It took her a full hour just to visit the library on one campus of her alma mater, not to mention that she wanted to visit all the museums in the city!
She told the Devouring Tree to continue collecting books, and then took out the map and replanned the route.
The libraries and large museums of several key universities are a must-visit. If you can find ordinary universities and small museums along the way, then visit them as well. Otherwise, leave them aside for the time being.
Once humans regain consciousness, they will definitely prioritize stockpiling water and food. Books and antiques are unlikely to be on the agenda for ordinary people; they can always come back for them later.
After finishing with my alma mater's library, I went to the library next door, which is my arch-rival. Both universities are comprehensive institutions with extensive and diverse collections of books.
Then there are the libraries of nearby medical universities, industrial universities, electronic science and technology universities, and other specialized universities.
It's worth mentioning that the database mainframes of every university library were taken away, which suggests that Guo Jia had long anticipated the issue of civilization's preservation.
Banxia smiled bitterly.
When a meteor shower occurs, the Earth's magnetic field also changes, and all electronic devices will be affected to varying degrees. At best, data will be corrupted; at worst, they will explode and be rendered unusable. The main unit that is taken away may not even be able to be used normally.
That's why she went to great lengths to collect physical books.
After collecting the books, we went to the large museum next door.
Through the bulletproof glass, Banxia saw that most of the museum's collection had disappeared, leaving only some items in their original places. It seemed that Guo Jia had taken some of them with him.
She stored the remaining collection in her spatial dimension, planning to anonymously donate it to the authorities if humanity survives to the future.
One person worked tirelessly for twenty-four hours straight, visiting all the major museums and libraries in City A.
"Banxia," the Devouring Tree waved a branch, "Shall we gather food next?"
The words "fill your stomach" have been etched into the souls of everyone in this post-apocalyptic world, including Tian Tian, this alien plant.
Banxia shook her head: "We have enough food. Let's not rush to collect food. Let's go to the industrial zone and collect a batch of machinery!"
"Hmph!" The Devouring Tree immediately got angry. "You can't eat or drink those things, so why are you collecting them?"
When collecting experimental equipment, books, and antiques, it thought to itself that these things wouldn't even be worth a steamed bun in the future, and storing them in the space was just taking up space for nothing.
But since her friend was happy, it couldn't say much. Unexpectedly, with only 48 hours left, she was still neglecting her duties!
This is infuriating!
Banxia quickly reassured it: "Have you forgotten? In our previous life, the base manager spent two hundred level-three crystal cores to acquire a large crusher! Moreover, the factory warehouse has far more supplies than the supermarket's inventory!"
She didn't know whether the things in the warehouse were still there!
After thinking carefully for a few minutes, the Devouring Tree finally recalled the incident from a corner of its memory, and its anger immediately subsided.
When food is plentiful, improving one's strength is indeed more important than finding new food!
With an agreement reached between the person and the tree, Banxia jumped onto the motorcycle and immediately accelerated to 350 km/h.
She was going to the industrial zone, where there were many factories: battery factories, wineries, pharmaceutical factories, food factories, garment factories, textile factories, leather factories, and daily chemical factories, as well as several large food and beverage, sewing machinery, and medical instrument general equipment manufacturing plants.
The first place that Yi Ren and Shu visited was a food and beverage machinery factory.
Banxia instructed Tiantian: "Collect ten units for each finished product, and collect half of the raw materials."
The Devouring Tree was somewhat displeased: "There's plenty of space; it can hold everything!"
Banxia touched Tiantian's tree trunk: "Things are valued for their rarity; if there are too many, they won't fetch a good price."
Actually, it was because she didn't want to push things to the extreme, because people can do anything when they're in dire straits.
She has plenty to eat and drink, so why bother?
Washing machines, conveyors, crushers, juicers, dryers, canning machines, sterilizers, concentrators, wrapping machines, sealing machines, packaging machines...
Banxia was overwhelmed by the sheer number of products, so she put several product guides and user manuals into her storage space, just in case she couldn't recognize what these machines were for in the future.
As for raw materials, I know even less; I just buy half the inventory and leave.
After finishing, we went to the sewing equipment factory next door.
Cotton quilt sewing machine, intelligent fireproof roller shutter sewing machine, greenhouse thermos cup sewing machine, cotton door curtain sewing machine, sewing machine needles, shuttles...
Ten of each type of machine were purchased, and half of the inventory of sewing machine needles, shuttles, and other accessories and raw materials were directly plundered. Who knows when these accessories will be produced?
Then came the medical device factory...
After collecting the equipment, we visited each factory one by one.
The finished products and raw material inventories of the food factory, beverage factory, clothing factory, textile factory, leather factory, pharmaceutical factory, tea factory, and winery are clearly incorrect. The remaining items are not even enough to fill a corner, so it is estimated that they have been confiscated by Guo Jia.
That's true. There are no workers during the three months of extreme cold. If we don't requisition the goods from the company warehouses, how can we supply the food, drink and sanitation needs of 20 million people in the city for three whole months?
Banxia hesitated for a moment and then chose to give up, leaving a way out for the ordinary survivors.
She took one-tenth of the finished product inventory and half of the raw material inventory from the remaining chemical plant, paper mill, home appliance plant, and battery plant, and also dismantled two production lines from each of them.
The cigarette factory cleared out all its raw materials and finished products. These weren't essential survival supplies, so she didn't feel any burden carrying them.
It only took six hours to clear out the entire industrial zone.
