Chapter 266: Heat Upgrade 1



Jiang Zhou was thinking about his own things in the clouds, but Yu Bai knew nothing about it.

What she was concerned about was how to help Han Yi, who was far away in the end times, safely survive the coming scorching heat that would devour all life.

The next morning, just after daybreak, Yu Bai and his second brother Yu Nian appeared at the door of their supermarket.

There are many things to do today, and every minute and every second is extremely precious.

Yu Nian acted quickly and immediately contacted a familiar ice cream factory in the name of the supermarket.

"Lao Li, it's me, Yunian. I'm urgently placing an order for a batch of ice cream. The quantity is... huge."

Mr. Li, the person in charge of the ice cream factory on the other end of the phone was obviously a little stunned by this sudden large order.

"Boss Yu? So early? How much is the quantity? Our small factory can't afford your excessive efforts."

After all, it is just a small or medium-sized supermarket, and the order volume on weekdays is limited.

The figures reported by Yu Nian made Old Li gasp.

"Boss Yu, you're going to clear out all my inventory these past few days! We haven't been working together for long, and this... funding..."

His hesitation could be clearly heard through the receiver. This batch of goods represented almost all of their recent production capacity. If there was any problem with the collection of payment, the small factory's capital chain would be broken immediately.

"Money is not a problem." Yu Nian heard his concerns and said in an unquestionable tone, "I'll transfer half of the deposit to you right away, and the balance will be paid immediately after the goods arrive."

Before he finished speaking, the mobile banking notification sounded.

Old Li looked at the deposit that had arrived so quickly, and his heart was relieved. He said repeatedly, "Great! Great! Boss Yu is so straightforward! I'll arrange it right away and ensure the goods are the freshest!"

After hanging up the phone with the ice cream factory, Yu Nian immediately contacted the ice factory and finalized an order for a considerable amount of industrial ice.

On the other side, Yu Bai was not idle either.

Through Lao Fang, she contacted several dealers who specialized in dealing in second-hand equipment.

The old man was generous and resourceful, and he quickly helped her secure a sufficient number of second-hand large-capacity refrigerators, freezers, refrigerators, several powerful second-hand diesel generators, and several second-hand solar panels.

Reasonable price and door-to-door delivery.

Everything was arranged in a hurry. Yu Bai felt relieved as he watched the supplies that were delivered one after another being properly placed.

She found a corner where no one noticed her, and with a thought, her figure disappeared from the spot and entered the space.

Yu Bai quickly walked to the west gate that led to the end of the world, took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, and began to call out: "Han Yi! Han Yi! Can you hear me?"

The apocalypse at this moment is completely different from the tranquility of space.

The scorching air seemed to be solidified, and the sun was like a huge fireball, scorching everything on the earth.

Even if you hide in a relatively safe building, the pervasive heat makes it hard to breathe.

The fresh fruits and vegetables that Yu Bai sent yesterday had already wilted after just one night. The edges began to lose water and curl, giving off a slight smell of impending decay.

Zheng Sisi was directing several survivors to laboriously move large buckets of water to various floors.

Clean water is one of the most precious resources today. It is not only used for drinking, but more importantly, people use it to apply wet towels on their bodies to resist the increasingly unbearable high temperatures.

"Use them sparingly! I don't know when this weather will end!" Zheng Sisi wiped the sweat from her forehead, her voice hoarse.

In the corner, the ignorant mutant piglet brought back by Han Yi seemed extremely irritable at the moment.

It kept pacing around in the makeshift fence, making low, anxious grunting sounds in its throat.

Its little hooves were digging in the ground, and occasionally it would slam into the fence, revealing an almost manic feeling, completely different from its usual naive appearance.

Their small bodies turned slightly red due to the heat, and fine beads of sweat condensed on their short, hard manes.

Han Yi frowned and looked at the little creatures that were equally restless.

The scorching heat of the apocalypse is so intense that even these thick-skinned mutant creatures can hardly bear it.

He acted decisively and ordered people to bring over a large iron barrel usually used to store water, and laboriously filled it with relatively cool deep well water.

"Get them in!"

Several people hurriedly picked up the five whining and struggling piglets one by one and threw them into the bucket with a "plop, plop".

Water splashed everywhere.

Almost instantly, the cool well water wrapped around their scalding bodies, and the heat that was enough to drive living creatures crazy was greatly relieved.

The five little piglets immediately calmed down and floated comfortably on the water, with only their noses and squinted eyes showing. They hummed comfortably and made satisfied gurgling sounds in their throats, as if they had just returned to heaven from hell.

Zheng Sisi and others were amazed. This method was simple and crude, but extremely effective.

At this moment, a familiar and somewhat anxious voice suddenly rang out in Han Yi's mind: "Han Yi! Han Yi! Can you hear me?"

It's Yu Bai!

Han Yi was cheered up and didn't bother to explain to Zheng Sisi. He just left a sentence "Keep an eye on them, I'll be back soon", and then his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot with a thought.

The next second, he was already in Yu Bai's space.

Compared to the scorching hell outside that seemed to melt people, the space inside was refreshing and pleasant. What shocked him even more was the mountain of things before him—

Boxes of ice cream, steaming cold, were piled up like small hills.

Next to it are larger, crystal clear industrial ice blocks, emitting a chill that penetrates the bone marrow.

Further to the side, there are several brand new and second-hand large-capacity refrigerators and freezers that appear to be in excellent condition. There are even a few refrigeration units, diesel generators, and solar panels standing there quietly.
