Then Xiahe took the two little ones and followed Uncle Li back to his house. On the way, Xiahe asked if she could buy Aunt Sun's dried mangoes. Uncle Li and Aunt Sun both said that Xiahe could take as many as she wanted. However, Xiahe insisted on paying Uncle Li. So, in the midst of the stalemate, Xiahe, carrying a bag of dried mangoes, quickly threw down 1,000 yuan as she walked out of Uncle Li's yard, and then grabbed the two little ones and ran away as fast as she could.
Uncle Li looked at the 1,000 yuan on the ground, and tears welled up in his eyes...
As Xia He walked out of Fuqiang Village, she kept thinking about what Village Chief Zhao had said: the people of Xingfu Village were all thieves, and her warehouse was right under their noses. No wonder the rent for this warehouse was so cheap!
On the way back in Xia He's Wuling van, the two little ones suddenly started barking. Xia He looked in the direction of their cries and saw the shifty-eyed man she had seen at the warehouse earlier that day. Beside him were two other short men with similar shifty eyes. They also noticed Xia He and stared at her Wuling van with scrutinizing eyes.
Xia He inwardly cried out in alarm. It seemed that her warehouse had already attracted the malice of the people of Xingfu Village. Fortunately, there was nothing in the warehouse at the moment, otherwise Xia He would not have been able to sleep peacefully tonight.
Xia He decided to put everything else aside for today and go home first. The two little ones had been out for so long and were already very tired. Xia He took the two little ones home first, and then drove her Wuling van to various restaurants where she had ordered food. Although she was very tired, Xia He looked at the truckload of delicious food and thought about the wonderful life after the apocalypse, so she had no choice but to grit her teeth and persevere!
After Xia He picked up her meal, she drove to a car rental shop and rented a small van, asking the manager to drive it to her neighborhood. Meanwhile, Xia He took out her phone and contacted Village Chief Zhao. "Village Chief Zhao, could you please hire a few young men from the village to help me guard the warehouse? Only during the day; someone will come to move the goods out between 6 and 8 pm every evening, so you don't need to send anyone to guard it at night. During the day, while you're guarding it, could you also help me collect the goods?" Village Chief Zhao readily agreed.
Xia He realized that storing her goods in the warehouse was no longer safe. Moreover, the goods in the warehouse were only allowed to enter and not leave. Before, there were few people there, so no one cared. But now, with the people of Xingfu Village watching her closely, Xia He had no way to slack off.
They could only find a few people to guard the warehouse during the day, and at night, Xia He would go to the warehouse to collect goods, and then pretend to move the goods in and out of the warehouse several times with a truck.
In this way, even if the people of Xingfu Village attack the warehouse at night when no one is around, they will only find nothing!
After finishing her work, Xia He drove to the university gate. She had been busy all day, and it was 7 p.m., just as the university students' nightlife was beginning. Xia He saw rows of small carts neatly parked on the roadside in front of the university gate, selling fried chicken, mini hamburgers, beer, drinks, barbecue, spicy hot pot, braised dishes and cold dishes, crayfish, fried skewers and maocai... Xia He was dazzled by the variety.
Xia He, witnessing the lively scene before her, couldn't resist taking a picture with her phone. She could look back at the bustling streets of the past after the apocalypse. Then she joined the group of university students, vying for food... like fried noodles. The toppings for fried noodles were optional; Xia He had just squeezed to the front of the stall, intending to add some enoki mushrooms, when a male university student swiftly added the last bit to his own basket...
And so, Xia He's idea of ​​stockpiling some more food at the university gate was thwarted by the college student special forces!
