Chapter 185: Organizing Space Supplies (33)
But these are things of the past. No matter what Ling Jiang did before, they are allies now and they just need to not do anything to hurt each other.
Besides, to be honest, Lan Jin really didn't believe that Ling Jiang had no other feelings for Lao Shi, so the reason she cried so miserably just now was definitely not because of being cuckolded.
However, Ling Jiang left without taking any action, which really surprised Lan Jin.
"I thought you were going to beat her up." If the girl didn't know about it, it would be unfair. If she knew about it, the meaning would be different. But no matter whether the girl knew about Ling Jiang's existence or not, Lao Shi knew about it, so Lao Shi really deserved a beating.
"The boss told me to beat him up to vent my anger. When I heard that, I knew he really liked the girl. What's the point in me hitting her again?" Ling Jiang felt very bored. She glanced at Lan Jin and asked, "How did you deal with this kind of thing when you encountered it?"
No matter how you deal with it, you have to deal with it. Anyway, you must have endured it at the time, and it must have been resolved later, so naturally you won’t be thinking about it anymore.
Now she explained, "It wasn't about making money. I was holding it in for a while, and after my divorce, the space appeared. During that time, all I could think about was material things. I was afraid that if something unexpected happened, my child and I wouldn't know what to do, so I didn't pay attention to it before. Then the end of the world came..."
Yes, the end of the world has come, and everything has been solved smoothly. Even though it was not so smooth at the beginning because there were too many people around, the things that needed to be solved were still solved without any regrets.
Ling Jiang glanced at her and smiled, "I know it was you who did it to your ex-husband and that mistress."
Lan Jin paused while rummaging through the supplies and asked, "How do you know I did this?"
When Ren Xing was dealt with, no one lived on the 32nd floor except her, so Ling Jiang couldn't have seen it. The same thing happened to Meng Ying that time. She led people to the parking lot when she went downstairs to try the access card in the middle of the night. Although every household turned on the lights in the middle of the night, how could anyone see her dealing with Meng Ying without street lights, not to mention in the parking lot? So how did Ling Jiang know?
Ling Jiang smiled at her and said, "You took care of Meng Ying in the parking lot, right? I was at home when I heard the noise and knew you were going downstairs to try the access card, so I didn't think much of it. But Lao Gao accidentally saw it."
At that time, Lan Jin had not met Lao Gao yet. He was not a good person to begin with. Before moving to this community, he had killed many people in order to survive. This kind of thing was too common for the two of them. They just took a look and then left.
Lao Gao saw Lan Jin dealing with Meng Ying, but because she left too quickly, he didn't see Lan Jin use the space to take Meng Ying in. Otherwise, Lan Jin felt safe. If Lao Gao had stayed a little longer, her space would have been exposed long ago.
Hearing this, Lan Jin stood there in a daze for a long time. He thought, no matter how careful he was, there should be no one in the parking lot, how come Lao Gao still saw him?
But since he had seen it all, Lan Jin had nothing to argue about. However, there was definitely no need to elaborate on the whole process. There was no other way to deal with such people except those.
…
There were too many and too many different kinds of supplies in her space. Although she had done some simple classification, it was always too simple. Whenever she wanted to find supplies, she had to rummage through the pile. Lao Gao had nothing to do, so he planned to organize the supplies for her.
All the food items were piled together. He put together all the things Lan Jin had bought earlier and the things she had smuggled from the supermarket into one category.
If they hadn't sorted out the supplies, they wouldn't have known that there were quite a lot of messy things in Lan Jin's space. Then, she pushed those foods that didn't need to be cooked but could be used as snacks to the front, so that they could have some to eat in an emergency.
The food was fine, as Lan Jin had specially organized it. But the seasonings and other things were a real mess.
Lao Gao thought of a way. He not only reclassified all the supplies, but also took a notebook, divided the areas, and recorded the types and quantities of supplies. Every time he took something out or put it back in, he would keep a record. In this way, no matter what the situation, Lan Jin would have a clear idea.
This kind of work is really meticulous. Lan Jin couldn't believe that Lao Gao, with his full beard, actually had that kind of patience.
But since someone helped her do it, she did it. Even if she sorted it out in the end, there was nothing she could do because there were too many supplies and these people coveted them. Her supplies and space could only be controlled by herself, and even if others wanted to take them, they couldn't.
This busy work lasted nearly 4 hours. After working so hard, I was really hungry. Lan Jin said, "Have some midnight snack and then go to bed. It's getting late and we still have to travel tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, everyone stopped what they were doing.
Lao Gao handed the notebook he had written down to Lan Jin and said, "Okay, I remember where I am now. You can take a look at it first. We'll continue tomorrow night. It will probably take three or four days, so it should be almost done. Let's finish it first and talk about it later."
For midnight snack, everyone held a large bowl of noodles cooked by Grandma Ling and ate it with relish. However, Lan Jin still found time to ask, "It's okay if you don't remember. I know roughly how much supplies there are."
"Although we have an idea of the supplies, there is no exact number. Besides, if we sort them out, we can find what we need more clearly." Lao Gao was not so eager when it came to food. After all, the supplies in the space could feed them to death. But he really wanted to understand the other things clearly and have an idea of them in mind, in case he could use them in the future, so that he wouldn't have to come into the space to look for them or make a fuss.
But to be honest, although they all had everything else, they were still far behind in weapons. Even though Lan Jin had bought some before, the lethality was never as great as Mu Cang's. Not to mention others, Lao Gao himself really wanted to get some back.
Lao Gao took a bite of noodles and suggested, "I think we should get some weapons back."
But speaking of weapons, Ling Jiang did get a wooden cannon from the thirty or so people who came to them to ask for supplies. She gave it to Lao Gao at the time. Since he couldn't get a sub-bow, Lao Gao modified it. It has some lethality, but it's not that great.
Now it is the end of the world, but this is not a novel after all. It is not so easy to get these highly lethal weapons.
"If you can't get weapons like wooden cannons, then get some long swords. Daggers are good, crossbows are good too, but if you encounter large-scale danger..." Before Lao Gao finished speaking, Lan Jin said, "Hide in the space. Isn't that how we hid last time?"
