Chapter 91 The Listener Has a Mind



Fearing the tanker trucks would freeze, Zuo Ling placed them on the ground in the space to thaw.

Four cans of gasoline and four cans of diesel, 100 tons each, enough for her to use for a long time.

What was found in the office building were mostly office supplies such as computers, printers, copiers, printing paper, metal cabinets, and pens.

The items with some value are cigarettes, alcohol, tea, and ginseng, but since it's an office, the quantity is limited, and any items that are there haven't been moved yet.

Zuo Ling was interested in the eight safes; four were taken from the finance office, and the other four were from the offices of the various CEOs.

Large-volume payments are mostly settled online, with the finance department keeping only a small amount of reserve funds.

It has to be said that the key obtained from Tang Fei was extremely useful; all eight safes were opened without any effort.

The safe in the finance office contained various certificates, financial seals, personal seals, and a small amount of cash, totaling over 100,000 yuan across several businesses.

The safes belonging to the several CEOs were quite enviable, containing over 8 million yuan in cash, all in thousand-yuan bills, more than 100 gold bars, and a stack of property deeds, share certificates, and other documents.

The property ownership certificate and shareholding certificate were useless to Zuo Ling, so they were set aside.

With over 100 gold bars and the gold bars in the space placed together, and the paper money still valid, they can buy quite a lot of things.

After tidying up for a while, I took a sip of water and rested. Looking out the car window, I saw that the snow was falling more and more heavily.

I checked the weather forecast; it was -75 degrees Celsius.

People are chatting in the neighborhood WeChat group.

"It's freezing! The car is so cold and stuffy."

"It's cold enough, but it's snowing too. I'll have to go out and shovel snow later. I'm afraid the snow will bury me in the car."

"I went to buy charcoal today. It used to cost 20 yuan a box, but now you can't even buy it for 200 yuan."

"Many people went out to collect wood, and I went too. But everyone around here has already collected it all. Tomorrow I'll have to go to a farther place to collect more."

"I'll go pick them up tomorrow too, or I'll freeze to death."

"Young people are alright, they can go further, but what about the older ones? They might freeze to death before they even find any wood."

"well……"

Alas, what followed was a long silence.

Turning off her phone, Zuo Ling began sorting through the thousands of cars she had collected.

The car was first submerged in water, then quickly frozen solid. Zuo Ling threw them all onto the ground to thaw.

It's hard to say whether a flooded car can be used, but some of the oil should be able to be extracted.

Even if the car is no longer usable, you can dismantle it and sell the valuable parts.

When we packed up the car, we found a lot of iron and steel frames. Almost none of them were intact; they were either broken or severely deformed. We couldn't even pick out a few intact ones to put in the storage space. This shows how powerful the tsunami was last night.

With the car set aside, Zuo Ling began cleaning up Tianjin's biggest haul: the shipping containers.

They took more than 300 containers in the early stages, collected some more while fleeing, and added some that they dug out of the ice, totaling 1267 containers.

For Zuo Ling personally, 1267 containers is a lot.

But for Tianjin Port, which has tens of thousands of containers backlogged, this is far too little.

Most of the containers were swept to the seabed by the tsunami, while a small portion was destroyed.

Those things that are swept into the sea may see the light of day again, but those that are destroyed can never be recovered. Just thinking about it is heartbreaking.

Zuo Ling opened containers like opening blind boxes, and most of them were related to food, clothing, and daily necessities.

Elephant Country's fragrant rice, mangosteen, and rambutan; Rabbit Country's olive oil; Kangaroo Country's cherries; Romantic Country's apples; Lily Country's blueberries; Lotus Country's dragon fruit; Thousand Castle Country's kiwifruit; Romantic Country's wine; Beautiful Country's corn and wheat; Maple Leaf Country's soybeans; Football Country's pork; and imported seafood from all over the world, as well as beef and mutton.

The containers for meat and fruit are equipped with their own power supply and refrigeration/freezing systems, so there's no need to worry about the food spoiling for at least a month.

Besides food, there are also many high-end luxury goods, such as bags, clothing, shoes, cosmetics, furs, cashmere and camel hair products, etc.

Dozens of large containers were filled with electronic products such as laptops, desktop computers, mobile phones, game consoles, and remote-controlled airplanes, as well as home appliances, auto parts, and agricultural vehicle parts.

To Zuo Ling's delight, she found six large containers of rare metals.

Zuo Ling didn't know where or how rare metals were used, but she knew that various rare metals were extremely scarce in the post-apocalyptic world, and that she could use them to exchange for things she needed with the government if the opportunity arose.

Several shipping containers were filled with top-of-the-line luxury cars: Bugatti, Ferrari, Veyron convertible, Pagani...

There were ten of them. Before the apocalypse, owning any one of them would be something to brag about for a lifetime.

If this were today, Zuo Ling's first reaction would be, "Oh no, what a waste of shipping containers! What use are these precious and fragile things in the apocalypse?"

Disappointment hadn't passed when a pleasant surprise followed: a modified Hummer H2, with its rugged appearance, immediately captured Zuo Ling's heart.

She touched it left and right, picked up the instruction manual, and used her broken English-to-English translator to catch two words: bulletproof!

Haha, bulletproof! What a steal!

Zuo Ling, who had suddenly become rich from a poor background, had only heard of the Hummer's reputation in legends and never imagined that one day he could own one himself.

Zuo Ling's emotions infected the waterfall; the little guy jumped up and down in the Hummer, even more excited than Zuo Ling.

After the initial excitement, it was time to open the blind boxes.

Two containers each for medical devices and Western medicines.

The medical equipment is set aside; we'll sort through the Western medicines later to see what diseases they actually treat.

Inside the container of Western medicine, there were two refrigerator-like devices containing many different vials of injections, all with English names that Zuo Ling couldn't understand at all.

She's healthy and won't need it for a while, so she's too lazy to research what diseases it treats.

Once the container door was closed, it remained untouched.

The cat and dog food filled a large container.
