Chapter 16: Stockpiling (6)

The woman nodded, started typing on the keyboard, and said, "Miss, we need at least one day to prepare your order. The earliest we can deliver your order is tomorrow."

Yao Ran nodded, "All right."

The woman typed for a while and asked, "Do you want to pay by card or cash?"

Yao Ran took out her black card and said, "I will pay with a debit card."

After typing on the keyboard, the woman printed out the purchase order and said, "This is your purchase order. You need to pay a 10% deposit first, and the rest will be paid after we ship the goods."

Yao Ran nodded, signed the purchase order, and paid the down payment. After spending more than 800 million to buy meat, she received a call.

"Hello?"

The next second, a man's voice came, "Miss, we are done here."

Yao Ran glanced at the time on her phone and said, "Sir, you can leave when you are done. I will transfer the money after I check the shelves."

The man agreed and hung up the phone. Afterward, Yao Ran drove back to the warehouse. Before she could take a look at the shelves, she received another call from the grain store and then the oil store. Those stores will deliver the items she ordered.

Yao Ran checked the shelves while waiting for the delivery. After making sure there was no problem, she sent the remaining money to the shelve store owner.

She waited for a while and saw several large trucks approaching from a distance. As the delivery came one after another, including her online purchases, Yao Ran spent the rest of the day receiving the goods.

When she received the last delivery today, it was already dark. She turned off the lights and put away the shelves that were already filled with supplies. After locking the warehouse, Yao Ran drove back to her small apartment.

When she got home, Yao Ran took a quick shower and then lay on the bed. While she was resting, she used her consciousness to sort out the supplies in the space. With the addition of these shelves, the space became more organized, and she was able to free up more space.

After handling the supplies, Yao Ran measured the land next to the farmland. She plans to build a pig pen, chicken coop, cow shed, etc., to house the livestock she just bought. Considering the fish, she also needs to prepare a fish pond for them. The lake water is reserved for drinking water and is not suitable for fish and seafood farming.

After finishing that, Yao Ran withdrew her consciousness from the space. Before going to bed, she ate a few steamed buns for dinner and bought many things from several online shopping platforms.

The next day, a phone call woke her up. Yao Ran fumbled around the bed for a while before finding the phone. Half asleep, she turned on her phone and answered the call.

"Hello? Who is this?" She asked in a hoarse voice.

The next second, Assistant He's voice came, "I'm sorry to disturb your sleep, Miss."

Yao Ran rubbed her eyes and said, "It's fine. What's wrong?"

Assistant He replied, "Lawyer Li just contacted me and said that Lan Guanghui, Chen Meilin, and Lan Lifei would be imprisoned for two months. It seems that Lan Guanghui has a backing and connection with people in government."

Yao Ran was not surprised after hearing Assistant He's answer. If Lan Guanghui doesn't have abilities, he won't be able to live a comfortable life at the end of the world.

Moreover, the fact that he was able to prepare so many supplies in the previous life proved that he indeed got some information about the incoming natural disaster.

Yao Ran sat up and said, "It doesn't matter. Two months is enough for them to learn their lesson. Is there anything else?"

"Yes. I listed your fixed assets on the market, your jewelry and antiques up for auction, and sold your bags, shoes, etc. The money will be credited to your bank account in a few hours."

Yao Ran listened to Assistant He's report calmly and said, "I understand. Thank you, Assistant He."

There was a hint of a smile in his voice when he said, "This is what I should do. I have to go see Lawyer Li, so I won't disturb you any longer."

"All right."

Yao Ran hung up the phone and looked out the window. She stretched, went to wash up, and started another day of shopping spree.

After a simple breakfast, Yao Ran drove to the warehouse. When she arrived, she sat on a chair and took out her phone.

While waiting for delivery at the warehouse, Yao Ran placed a lot of orders on the food app. After the end of the world, she would never have the chance to taste this kind of food. Therefore, she might as well stock up on more while she can.

After placing big orders at more than twenty restaurants, Yao Ran searched for the contact information of several companies and factories.

Today, she plans to purchase goods directly from large companies and factories. In addition to a sufficient supply and complete varieties, the price is also lower than that of the market. If she can save more money, she can buy more supplies.

The first company she contacted was a mineral water company. No matter what natural disasters the survivors face in the future, water is the scarcest resource.

Before the emergence of ability users after the spread of nuclear radiation, people had no way to find clean water sources.

The best they could do was gather rainwater and filter the contaminated water for drinking. However, the consequences were dire. Most people either died from poisoning or mutated into brainless monsters.
