Chapter 6: Yao Family’s Heirloom

Inside the box, lying on the silk brocade, was a simple green jade pendant. When Yao Ran saw the jade pendant, a memory came to her mind. She remembered that her grandfather said that this jade pendant was an heirloom of the Yao family and would only be passed on to the next head of the family.

She took out the jade pendant and thought, 'It's a pity that Lan Lifei took a fancy to this jade pendant and snatched it away from me in the past. This time, I won't let her lay her hands on this jade pendant again.'

Thinking of this, she put the jade pendant back on the wooden box and said, "Assistant He, I need your help."

Assistant He nodded, "Miss, if you need anything, just tell me directly."

Yao Ran then raised her eyes and looked at him calmly, "I want to sell the company and sell all my assets, including houses, villas, apartments, cars, jewelry, and everything that can be sold for money. Can you help me solve this problem?"

Assistant He was stunned after hearing what she said. The next second, he came back to his senses and asked worriedly, "Miss, why do you want to sell the company? The chairman founded this company from scratch. If you just sell it like this…"

Yao Ran knew that a natural disaster was coming, but she couldn't tell anyone. Rather than letting the money turn into waste paper, she preferred to use it to stock up on supplies while she still had time.

Moreover, she also gained spatial abilities and a place to hide supplies, giving her a greater chance of survival this time.

She made up her mind and lied without blinking an eye, "Assistant He, I want to leave this country."

When Assistant He heard this, what he wanted to say got stuck in his throat. He looked at her for a few seconds and sighed, "Fine. I will help you sell everything. What will you do after you go abroad?"

Yao Ran shook her head, "I will think about it after I leave this country."

"Then I will go make preparations." Assistant He said after a moment of silence.

Yao Ran nodded, "Thank you."

After Assistant He left, Yao Ran took the phone from the bedside table. She opened her bank account and found that the balance was only a few hundred yuan.

She sneered at herself and chuckled, "As the chairman of the Yao Group, I actually only have so much money on hand. In my previous life, I was really foolish and useless."

She clenched her phone and closed her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, the weakness and self-loathing in her eyes disappeared, replaced by cold and determined eyes.

While waiting for news from Lawyer Li and Assistant He, Yao Ran was not idle either. She started by making a list of supplies she needed to buy. After her rebirth, her abilities regressed to their lowest level.

In previous lives, the end of the world began with heavy rains and typhoons. Since then, floods, tsunamis, extreme cold, extreme heat, earthquakes, acid rain, plagues, animal and plant mutations, insect infestation, and nuclear radiation have all struck without interruption.

The disaster didn't end until the day she blew herself up with no hope in sight.

Currently, her space is only one hundred square meters, and she can't store many things. However, she is confident that after selling everything and having tens of billions of funds, she should be able to live longer and better in this life.

Yao Ran was typing on her mobile phone, and the list of supplies she needed to buy was getting longer and longer. Weapons, food, medicines, clothes, hot and cold protective clothing, seeds, soil, household appliances, gasoline, liquefied gas, solar generators, radiation protective suits, daily necessities, etc.

Although she has water element ability, her abilities have now been reduced to the lowest level. At her current level, she can only produce a few buckets of water every day. There simply wasn't enough for her, so she added water and water purification tablets and water purification equipment to the list.

She needs to prepare many things, but the most troublesome ones are weapons, medicines, and fuel. Citizens are prohibited from possessing weapons, while the state controls medicines and fuel.

Yao Ran thought for a while and opened the address book on her phone. There are not many names on the list, but all of them are prominent figures in business and military circles. These people were her grandfather's best friends and their sons or grandsons.

Since her grandfather passed away, what she has now is only a huge inheritance and connections with these prominent figures.

Yao Ran browsed the list for a while and found the name he wanted to contact. She took a deep breath before pressing the call button. After waiting for a while, a man's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Ran Ran?"

Yao Ran calmed down and said, "Hello, Grandpa Xu. I'm really sorry for calling you suddenly."

Grandpa Xu heard her weak voice and asked with concern, "How are you? I saw the news last night. That beast Lan Guanghui should be killed for doing such a thing to you. If your grandfather was still alive, he would not let you suffer at the hands of Lan Guanghui."

Grandpa Xu and Yao Ran's grandfather are from the same village, and they get along better than their biological brothers. While her grandfather established his business empire, Grandpa Xu also established his business empire. However, unlike her grandfather, Grandpa Xu is an underground boss.

Since Yao Ran could not purchase weapons through ordinary channels, she could only try to seek help from Grandpa Xu.
