Xia He did the math. Although she had a lot of money, after deducting the food she had bought so far, she still had about 150 million left. However, there were still many things she hadn't bought, and weapons and oil were not things that could be bought in large quantities domestically. She would have to go to Saudi Arabia for those.
Fortunately, Xiahe's life as a corporate slave was not for nothing. She had some business dealings with Saudi Arabia before, and she had contacted the person there. Although she had never been there, she was quite familiar with the person, Linda. The two often shared their country's food and culture. Xiahe had wanted to go to Saudi Arabia for a while, and she had already obtained her passport, but she hadn't had the time. Now that's great!
Once all the supplies for the next 30 days are collected, Xia He will head straight to Saudi Arabia. However, the supplies in China are not yet complete. The main issue is the food from the restaurants, such as crayfish, spicy hot pot, and dry pot dishes. These will take another 30 days to be collected. It's the 16th now, and the latest it will be collected is June 15th. Other supplies ordered online are much more convenient and can be collected within a month. As for the online orders, Xia He has set up a separate room in the warehouse specifically for storing packages.
This compartment requires Xia He to provide a unique password when the courier delivers the package. The password can only be used once and is then invalid, making package pickup very convenient and eliminating concerns about theft. More importantly, the fortress can be completed within a month. Once completed, they can then see what needs to be added. Some items cannot be purchased domestically and can only be obtained from Saudi Arabia.
Because Saudi Arabia is a major oil-producing country with a very prosperous economy and a very open culture, various underground transactions have emerged. Therefore, you can buy almost anything in Saudi Arabia. So Xia He plans to buy up the basic supplies in Shu and then drive to the neighboring province every day to buy different things. The destinations must be places that can be reached and returned on the same day, because Xia He also needs to rush to collect the meals the next day.
Next, Xia He prepared to buy outdoor equipment and drove to the largest outdoor equipment mall. Because hiking and camping have become very popular in the last 10 years, the corresponding outdoor equipment is also very complete. In her previous life, many outdoor enthusiasts relied on the hiking and camping equipment they had used to survive many terrible experiences during the apocalypse.
Xia He first went to the outdoor shoes section, where there were hiking boots, trekking shoes, mountain boots, rock climbing shoes, river tracing shoes, beach shoes/sandals, outdoor casual shoes, snow boots and rubber shoes.
Then there's outdoor clothing: waterproof jackets and pants, fleece jackets and pants, quick-drying clothing, outdoor shirts, outdoor T-shirts, camouflage clothing, quick-drying fabrics, thermal underwear, down jackets, cotton-padded jackets, ski clothing, sweaters and windbreakers, casual clothing, cycling apparel, vests, and windbreakers...
This includes matching clothing and accessories: hats, gloves, headscarves, earmuffs, outdoor glasses, scarves, neck warmers, raincoats, ponchos, gaiters, outdoor socks, air-circulating insoles, and quick-drying towels. Next is camping gear: tents, sleeping bags, sleeping mats, ground sheets, water bottles, water containers, stoves, communication equipment, navigation systems, knives and tools, flashlights, lamps, binoculars, trekking poles, walking sticks, and cleaning and protective equipment.
There are even outdoor tableware items, such as small cups, chopsticks, spoons, forks, and so on. Of course, among the outdoor supplies, Xia He's favorite is outdoor cooking equipment, including pot sets, single pots, hanging pots, alcohol stoves, oil stoves, wood stoves, gas stoves, gas canisters, campfires, tableware, chopsticks, spoons, kettles, bowls, knives, and so on.
Xia He had already envisioned a post-apocalyptic scene of having an outdoor barbecue with her two dogs on her balcony. She prepared 100 sets of each brand of groceries to ensure she wouldn't run out. Preparing for these also meant stocking up on fuel. Because Xia He was buying so much, the mall manager accompanied her, and Xia He again used the excuse of charitable donation, while simultaneously requesting a large quantity of fuel.
So the manager gave Xiahe the contact information of suppliers of solid alcohol blocks, bottled natural gas, diesel, etc. Xiahe directly told the manager to purchase them together and deliver them together, and to pay the manager the middleman's fee. She also said that the quality and quantity must be sufficient, and the fuel should be enough for at least one person for 50 years.
Upon hearing these items, the manager, though outwardly calm, inwardly suspected something was amiss. Otherwise, why would someone buy so much outdoor gear? However, given the sheer size of Xia He's order, the manager suppressed his doubts, accepted the order with a smile, and arranged a delivery time before Xia He left.
