Rebirth of a Farmhouse with Space
Chapter 218 Buying Daily Supplies
This high temperature is global. The freshwater resources of some small island countries have evaporated by more than half due to the high temperature. This has caused a flood panic, and looting and smashing have begun to occur.
Fortunately, the Xia Kingdom is vast and rich in resources, so this phenomenon has not occurred yet. However, if the high temperature continues, no one can guarantee that social chaos and collapse of order will not occur. Of course, such phenomena have occurred in previous years, and droughts that occur rarely in a century have also occurred.
In the group, everyone is talking about the current situation in their hometown.
Nan Zhaozhao had no choice. The eldest brother reminded her not to interfere with the trajectory of this world. It was already her limit for her to remind them in the group. Whether they believed it or not was their own business!
In the evening, Nan Chen and Ms. Dong came back. Nan Zhaozhao immediately told them briefly about the extreme natural disasters they would face in the future. However, their reactions were completely opposite. Nan Chen looked solemn. His business spread all over the world, so if there was a global natural disaster, his business would naturally be greatly affected.
Ms. Dong, on the other hand, was different. She seemed a little surprised, with a hint of indescribable joy in her tone. "Is a global supernatural disaster like the apocalyptic outbreak described in novels?"
Nan Zhaozhao thought about it and nodded, "Almost! By then, a large number of the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the lower classes will surely be swallowed up by natural disasters!"
Nan Chen sighed deeply and said, "Yes, humans seem so small and powerless in the face of natural disasters! Those who can survive are mostly capable and prepared."
Ms. Dong slapped her thigh and said, "What are we waiting for? Let's get ready quickly. Xiaobao, let's get up early tomorrow to buy daily necessities! Husband, you go find a construction team to renovate our house!"
Nan Chen saw Ms. Dong's startled expression and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. "Honey, calm down. We still have Xiaobao's portable space. No matter what, our family won't starve or freeze!"
"right!"
Nan Chen looked at Nan Zhaozhao again and asked, "Xiaobao, if you can put the island resort into your space, then Dad will transfer some of the manufacturing plants and storage warehouses under his name to you. Can you put those into your space as well?"
Nan Zhaozhao said, "It should be possible!"
"Okay, I'll start preparing tonight." His career can be said to have reached its peak now. If all the industry funds were recovered, it would be enough for his family to live in wealth and prosperity for several lifetimes.
That night, Ms. Dong couldn't sleep the whole night, and she kept thinking about how to live a good life in the apocalypse!
The next day, Nan Zhaozhao was still asleep when Ms. Dong woke her up by patting her butt. "Xiaobao, hurry up and get up. We still have a lot of things to do today!"
Nan Zhaozhao, with her messy hair, looked at her elderly mother sitting beside her bed with a confused look on her face and asked, "Mom, what are you doing so early in the morning?"
"It's getting late. It's almost eight o'clock. Hurry up and get up. We need to go buy daily necessities. Didn't we say that the end of the world is coming? We have to prepare in advance!"
"Mom, I still want to sleep. Please let me sleep for another half an hour. I will definitely accompany you to buy supplies in half an hour!"
"Pa!" Ms. Dong slapped Nan Zhaozhao's little butt and scolded her angrily, "You little lazy bum, it's already so late, and you're still asleep? Hurry up and get up!"
Nan Zhaozhao was startled by Ms. Dong and woke up instantly. After getting up, Nan Zhaozhao also brushed her teeth at Ms. Dong's urging!
During breakfast, Ms. Dong leaned over to Nan Zhaozhao and whispered, "Xiaobao, I read a novel like this. It's about the end of the world and they fire all the nannies and servants. Then they give them some money and subtly tell them to go home and stock up on daily necessities. After that, they go on all kinds of shopping. What do you think, should we do the same?"
"Mom, if you fire them all, who will do the housework and cook for us?"
Ms. Dong glanced at the servants busy around her and lowered her voice again, "As for me, you know, the food your mother cooks is still delicious!"
"Come on, one or two meals is fine, but you won't be able to handle it for a long time. Besides, my dad will be worried about you too. So, let's wait until Dad comes back tonight and see what he says!"
"Hurry up and eat those. After you're done, we'll set off. I've already made a plan. Let's go to the farmers' market first and buy some rice, flour, grain, oil, etc. We'll take care of the food first, and then we'll go stock up on daily necessities!"
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say!" Nan Zhaozhao was also helpless. Ms. Dong had no other hobbies. She just liked reading original novels. She was not interested in playing mahjong or buying luxury goods!
The mother and daughter put on sunscreen and made all the necessary preparations. Just as they were about to go out, they stepped back from the doorway. "Housekeeper, what's the temperature outside today?"
"Madam, the temperature outside is 42 degrees Celsius today. Due to the high temperature, all construction sites and factories have stopped working, and many company employees are working from home!"
"so serious?"
"Yes, ma'am, where are you and the young lady going?"
"We are planning to go shopping, huh!" Ms. Dong thought for a while and said, "How about this, let the driver drive the car to the basement, and we will get in the car directly from the basement. Remember to ask him to turn on the air conditioner first!" She and Xiaobao are both delicate girls, and they can't bear to be exposed to such strong sun!
"Yes!"
At nine in the morning, the temperature outside was already as high as 42 degrees. I wonder if there was still anyone at the farmers' market!
"Mom, are we still going?"
"Go, it's so hot today, those merchants selling rice, flour, grain and oil must have turned on the air conditioners, so we just need to go to the stores with air conditioning!" Ms. Dong has a beautiful idea, but who knows what if it is really the case!
The mother and daughter first took a car to a rice shop. The rice shop was not big, only about 100 square meters, and there was not much rice inside. There were only about 15 bags of each variety of rice. Ms. Dong was a little disgusted, "Boss, you have too little rice and flour in your shop. Do you have any more?"
The boss was a middle-aged man, very fat, with a belly bigger than that of an eight-month pregnant woman. But don't be fooled by his sturdy and strong appearance. His voice was very gentle. "Madam, the things displayed in my store are all samples. If you want more, I can take you to the warehouse to have a look!"
"Warehouse? Is it far?"
The boss nodded. "It's a bit far, but I see you guys drove here too. If you drive, it'll only take fifteen minutes!"
Ms. Dong asked, "Sure. By the way, do you only sell rice and noodles? Do you also sell other things, such as seasonings, oil, salt, etc.?"
"We don't sell these, but next to my warehouse is a shop that specializes in selling seasonings. If you need a large quantity, I can call the boss and have him come over directly so that you can discuss it directly there!"
"Okay, let him go!" Ms. Dong was also straightforward. After all, she was rich and had a strong foundation, so she was not afraid of anyone.
