Eighty boxes of seasoned pasta, hot and sour noodles, and snail rice noodles, with ten bags per box.
Eighty boxes of each of the various flavors of self-heating hot pot, self-heating claypot rice, self-heating twice-cooked pork, and self-heating mushroom and beef were also purchased, with ten boxes per box.
There are also sixty boxes each of canned beef, canned luncheon meat, canned fish, and canned pork meatballs, with twelve cans in each box.
They also bought compressed biscuits, various canned fruits, various ready-to-eat chili sauces, beef sauce, pickled vegetable sauce, various breads, dehydrated vegetables, salt, cooking oil, and various seasonings in huge quantities.
They also ordered a lot of things that bring them joy, such as Coca-Cola, Sprite, soft drinks, and bottled milk-flavored beverages of various flavors.
They also ordered a lot of snacks that the siblings liked, such as potato chips, spicy strips, and chocolate to replenish their energy.
Finally, there is the source of life – drinking water.
Although there are wells in the space that can pump water, what if the water in the wells runs out?
Five hundred 15-liter barrels of drinking water and five hundred cases of bottled drinking water.
Besides food, they also buy cleaning supplies such as shampoo, toothpaste, tissues, soap, and laundry detergent by the bottle, pack, or box of 100.
Especially sanitary napkins, both day and night use, as well as menstrual panties; Xu Lai dragged her mother, Song Qiu'e, to pick out a supply that would last the two of them about ten years.
"Lai Lai, isn't the quantity you ordered a bit too much?"
Seeing the number of sanitary napkins her daughter had written down in her notebook, Song Qiu'e hesitated again and asked.
Is this apocalyptic disaster going to last for ten years?
"Mom, it's okay. If we can't use it all ourselves, we can sell it to others later. And the price of this stuff is ridiculously high!"
Xu Lai clearly remembered that in her previous life, the torrential rain disaster lasted for one year and two months.
After the torrential rain came an extreme heat disaster, and she and her brother died six months after the disaster struck.
She didn't know exactly how long the apocalyptic disaster lasted, but she remembered very clearly how cruel the days after the disaster were.
In the apocalypse, a small sanitary napkin is more important than some people's lives.
Therefore, it's best to stock up on as many of these necessities as possible.
The sheer volume of their purchases this time still piqued the curiosity of the person in charge, but Xu Lai and her family managed to brush it off with the same excuse.
When it came time to pay, these items cost over 350,000 yuan.
This deal likely boosted the supermarket manager's performance significantly; throughout the entire reception, his ever-present, upturned smile was probably impossible to suppress even with an AK47.
After storing the goods in the space in the same way, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
The family went to a hot pot restaurant in the city and had a sumptuous hot pot meal.
After dinner, the family went back to their house in the city to rest.
When Xu Haiguo and his wife bought this house a few years ago, they included their second uncle's room in the purchase price.
Four bedrooms and two living rooms, with a total area of 168 square meters.
It's quite spacious for five people to live here.
The next day was the day Xu Lai and her younger brother Xu Chao went back to school after their Qingming Festival holiday.
Early in the morning, Song Qiu'e asked her son and daughter for a long leave.
Xu Haiguo also took the opportunity to dismiss his brothers on the construction site and subtly instructed these brothers who had worked with him for many years to stockpile as much food as possible.
Xu Lai is a third-year student, so it was much easier for her to ask for leave. She simply sent a WeChat message to her counselor requesting nine days off.
Anyway, nine days later, the virus will break out on a large scale, and the government will require people to stay at home in isolation.
After taking leave, Xu Lai thought of her roommates in the dormitory.
Besides her, the other three in the dormitory were from out of town.
These three roommates are all very nice people. They have lived together for almost three years and have always gotten along quite well.
She didn't return to her dorm last night, and her three roommates even asked her about it in their group chat.
Given the sudden and rapid outbreak of the virus in their previous life, they certainly wouldn't have had time to return to their hometown.
Xu Lai sincerely hopes that they can safely get through the virus outbreak and survive the apocalyptic disaster.
So she picked up her phone, opened the roommate group chat, and typed: "Girls, I've seen so many patients with fever and cough at the hospital these past few days, it's terrifying! You guys need to stock up on food and drinks!"
A few seconds later, a new message popped up in their dormitory's group chat.
Liu Xing: "My God, it's only been less than half a year since the COVID-19 lockdown was lifted, has a large number of people tested positive again? Lai Lai, are you okay?"
If there are too many people testing positive again, we might have to implement another lockdown.
Leng Jia: "Okay, I'll go stock up on food after school at noon. Just thinking about how we ate nothing but plain noodles in the dorm for a whole month this time last year makes me feel utterly hopeless!"
After sending those words, she also added a crying emoji.
Li Lan: "I want to stock up too! I want to stock up too! Luckily, Lai Lai, you reminded us!"
Seeing that her roommate had taken her words to heart, Xu Lai felt much more at ease.
"I checked, it's just a common cold, nothing to worry about. Remember to stock up on masks, disinfectants, and other supplies. Also, ask your uncles and aunts to stock up on rice and flour!"
After sending these reminders, Xu Lai put her phone away.
Actually, she really wanted her roommates to pack their bags and go back to their hometowns, but if she told them, "The apocalypse is coming in a month!"
Even if they have a very good relationship, they would probably just think she was joking.
Let's leave it at that for now. She'll try to persuade her roommates after the virus is over.
As for people in society, whenever she posts online about a new virus outbreak or an apocalyptic rainstorm disaster in a little over a month, it's considered a threat.
It's likely that the cyber police will contact her before tomorrow, warning her that she is spreading alarmist information, disseminating false information online, and disrupting social order.
"The real estate agent sent me a message saying that someone wants to buy our old house in the South Bay area this afternoon!"
She put her phone in her pocket and was about to go out with her family to continue shopping when her father, Xu Haiguo, received a phone call.
After a day of shopping yesterday, everyone realized that money really doesn't last long.
Moreover, the appliances and other equipment they need to buy later will be even more expensive.
That's great! If the house is sold, the family will have some income.
"To save time, let's split up today!"
Xu Lai offered suggestions.
"Today, Mom and Dad are in one group, and my second uncle, my younger brother, and I are in another!"
Both my parents need to be present to sign the paperwork for selling the house.
After selling the house, they went to the building materials market to buy bank-specific explosion-proof and burglarproof doors, electric fence doors, burglarproof windows, cement, and materials such as fire-fighting and thermal insulation cotton.
In the apocalypse, burglary, murder, and arson have become commonplace, so you'd better make sure to reinforce and defend your own doors and windows.
The grandfather, grandfather, and grandson went to the clothing wholesale market in the city.
