I survived with my sister in the doomsday
Chapter 74: Reinforced Housing
After teaching Feicui how to drive, she drove home and went down the spiral staircase with a lot of clanging and barely made it back to the parking space on our floor. I was so scared that I broke out in a sweat, but at least she landed safely.
Xiaobai looked for a long time and finally couldn't help but call me to his house out of curiosity.
I was still wondering what was going on. After entering his house, Xiaobai pulled me to sit down face to face and looked at me straight, sizing me up for a long time. Lin Lin, who was standing by, smiled and assured me that he didn't say anything.
I secretly felt that something was not good. Maybe Xiaobai discovered something, or maybe what we had done in the past few days was a bit exaggerated and unbelievable to Xiaobai. If he didn't discover it, he would be really stupid.
Sure enough, Xiaobai finally spoke and asked me like he was interrogating a prisoner: Are you hiding something from me?
Seeing my exposed expression, he began to recount the strange things he felt. Actually, although Xiaobai seemed to be indifferent to worldly matters, he was actually very thoughtful. What he felt was particularly wrong was Feicui. Why could she pick up two cars so easily, while he couldn't find any on the road?
And how could Lin Lin and I earn 300,000 yuan so quickly and have these large appliances? No matter how worthless they are, no one would give them away for free, right? This was something he was very curious about, but he was busy with stockpiling these days and didn't have time to ask me. He asked Lin Lin, but Lin Lin refused to tell him, and just said that she promised me not to tell others.
In fact, it was only a matter of time before Xiaobai discovered the abnormality in our family, because we lived under the same roof and none of us could hide anything. Sooner or later he would find out about these things. I stopped hesitating and decided to tell him earlier. I asked Xiaobai in return, "Do you feel any physical changes in yourself recently?"
Xiaobai immediately replied, "Yes!" He was curious about why his broken leg had healed and he was able to walk briskly. People say that it takes at least 100 days to heal a broken bone, but only a month had passed.
I said that you had only been in contact with your grandpa during this period, and it was your grandpa who cured you. Didn’t you feel it?
Xiaobai widened his eyes, looked at me in disbelief, and asked me, "Isn't this the effect of your family's ancestral magic medicine?"
I said that my grandpa had the ability to help others treat external injuries after the earthquake, and that he had a 30-square-meter space. I didn't want to tell everyone the fact that my grandpa could output the space. In the past two days, my grandpa gave me square meters of his space. Out of protection for my grandpa, only Feicui and I knew about this, and I didn't even tell Pearl this time.
If everyone wants to divide the grandfather's space and not give it to someone, it will not be good at all and will also hurt the harmony.
I said that as for me, I have a space supermarket. I connected the space and my supermarket together. Anyway, no one except myself knows what my space looks like. I also told him that I have things like toilet paper in my supermarket. Lin Lin can tell you in detail because that's how cigarettes are made.
Xiaobai was shocked, but finally understood what was going on between us. He even asked about Lin Lin's abilities, and then told me that both of them had somewhat useless abilities.
I say running fast can save your life. If you encounter trouble, you can just run and no one can catch you. How great is that? It's better than ordinary people.
It’s good that we are all together now and don’t have to hide our abilities. But we are a team and we all have special abilities. No one can expose their abilities. If one day they are exposed, we will become sitting ducks and may be coveted by some force in the future. Don’t let us do research on them anymore.
Xiao Bai said, "I'm not stupid. Of course I know how to keep a secret. If you had told me earlier, would I have stocked up more things? Could I have put the vegetables that can't fit in the refrigerator in your space?" And I carried 50-jin bags of rice and flour and boxes of mineral water like a fool. You didn't say you had the ability to do it, and you watched me suffer?
He was obviously a little angry.
The next morning I arranged for Feicui to drive Pearl to school. I was afraid that the novice female driver would have problems, so I specially sent a sparring partner Lin Lin to be her co-driver. The two of them took the beautiful little Pearl to school. Yesterday I took Pearl to a high-end women's clothing store and bought her a few sets of beautiful and fitting clothes. Private high schools don't have uniform school uniforms. Other children are very particular about their clothes, so we can't lose our taste.
Pearl's school has a cafeteria. In addition to paying the school selection fee, she was also charged 20,000 yuan in tuition and miscellaneous fees when she registered that day, which included book fees, food expenses, etc., so she had two meals a day at school. Private high schools no longer have the trouble of the college entrance examination. In the past, due to the pressure of studying, she would not be able to leave school until midnight. Because of the college entrance examination, the whole country is paralyzed, so now she is out of school at seven o'clock every night, so she has to be picked up at night. Fortunately, our family is large now, with many people, and we have two cars taking turns to pick her up, so Pearl must not walk back.
The reason why I didn't go with my grandfather to deliver the pearls was that my grandfather and Xiaobai had agreed to stock up on supplies today. Now Xiaobai also has some experience in stockpiling. He has spent 70,000 to 80,000 yuan in the past few days, and has more than 200,000 yuan left. He said that my grandfather has space, so the things we buy can be put into my grandfather's space, which is simply wonderful.
When we went out early in the morning, the three of us went to the breakfast shop to have breakfast. Seeing the boss steaming dumplings, the two of them and I whispered that we should buy more dumplings and put them in the grandfather's space, and let grandpa set up a specially built cooked food area to stock up more breakfast. This way, when we want to eat dumplings in the morning, we can just take them directly from the space. The time in space is still, and the dumplings will be different from those just bought from the breakfast shop!
Grandpa praised my suggestion. If necessary, we can stock up some more during this period, so that we don't have to rush to prepare breakfast for Zhenzhu and others who go to school early in the morning. It's much easier. We bought all the buns in the shop and asked grandpa to store them in the space while they were still hot.
Grandpa is like a warehouse! We went to the steel frame factory to order some large steel frames, and even bought large plastic baskets to put on the steel frames for classification. We rented a warehouse with a space similar to that of Grandpa outside the market in advance. First, the shelves were put into the warehouse, and then the workers put the baskets on the floor of the warehouse to wait for the fresh ingredients to be purchased. Then we went to the market, where there were vegetables shipped from the vegetable greenhouse, cucumbers, beans, eggplants, peppers, and the most and cheapest were potatoes and sweet potatoes. We bought 100 kilograms. There were also pigs, chickens, ducks, beef and mutton shipped from the meat farm. We bought five pigs, 100 chickens and ducks. Mutton and beef were too expensive, so we only bought kilograms of each. Now that the grapes are ripe, we also bought a basket of grapes, two baskets of watermelons, and two baskets of cantaloupe. After buying, we gave the merchants the address and asked them to deliver them to our warehouse, and I went back to the warehouse to direct the workers to stack the things. Who asked us what we bought so many things for? We answered that we were going to open a fruit and vegetable supermarket when we returned.
I saw some fresh eggs and bought a basket of them. Of course, the money Xiaobai and I had together was only 300,000 yuan. With prices soaring now, our purchasing power is really limited. But that still filled half of the warehouse.
After spending almost all the money, I told Xiaobai that it was enough and we should stop here for today. We pretended to go back to the warehouse to load things, but in fact grandpa put the full shelves into his space and left the empty shelves in the warehouse, ready to be taken away when he came back to buy something next time.
In the end, I went to the market again to buy the little chicks that grandpa had been longing for. On the way back, I dug some soil on the roadside, bought some wire mesh to make a fence, and also bought a special feeding trough and chicken feed, which was a large bag of a mixture of Kang and corn flour. I passed by a building materials store and bought nails and wooden boards. Grandpa was going home to make a chicken coop himself.
After returning home, Xiao Bai started to look around the house and told me, if we encounter special weather, will our windows burst? And the top floor should be waterproofed again, what if it leaks in during a rainstorm? And are the doors of our two houses strong? If someone wants to rob us, how can we stop them? Although it seems calm here in the middle of the mountain, other places are falling, and there may be thieves and bandits who sneak into the base, so we must be prepared.
With the lesson learned from the previous incident with Hu Haotian's gang of gangsters, I felt that Xiaobai was not just worrying about nothing. I decided to work with him on the security of the two houses. First, I arranged for workers to come tomorrow to improve the waterproofing of our two roofs. I also asked a special security company, and they sent experts who specialized in security work. Temporarily, we used the little remaining money to replace a set of alloy steel safety doors for each house, and also sealed the door of our elevator room with the same door. In the past, when there was a signal network, there was an additional function of real-time monitoring, but now we can only use super anti-theft locks.
We are on the top floor, and he blocked the passage leading to the top floor parking space with steel plates. Although it is a bit more difficult to enter the car, it can also provide some protection.
Fortunately, there is enough money left, so I plan to drive and sell toilet paper tomorrow to make some money.
