Natural Disaster Strikes: I Stockpiled Billions and Carved My Way Through the Apocalypse
Chapter 13 Finding Shelter
Mu Jiuyue quickly found the cave as Lao Hou had instructed.
Don't even say it.
The location is superb.
K City is not a coastal city; it is several hundred kilometers away from the coastline and is also separated by a shallow mountain range.
Even if a tsunami breaks out, K City will not be swallowed up.
K City was not submerged until the icebergs melted.
But by then, most of the landmass on the planet had been swallowed up, not just K City.
When that time comes, they will migrate westward.
Originally, K City wasn't Mu Jiuyue's first choice, but the location of this cave was so good that Mu Jiuyue wavered in her original idea.
Of course, the most important thing is that she is really familiar with K City.
It's relatively convenient to buy for free.
Everything else is bullshit.
Mu Jiuyue walked around the cave, thoroughly exploring its interior and exterior.
They discovered that it was a cave shaped like a treasure bottle.
The entrance is narrow, allowing only one person to pass at a time, and can be easily concealed with rocks.
But after walking a dozen or so steps, the space opens up into an open area of about 300 square meters. Further in, sunlight filters through from above, and although the sunlight isn't strong, ventilation is not a problem.
Further in, there is a natural spring, bubbling with water, and a small pool that can meet their living needs.
The cave is not large, but it has been well-maintained, making it warm in winter and cool in summer, easily accommodating both hot and cold weather.
No matter how thick the walls of a city are, they can't compare to the thickness of a mountain, let alone provide insulation.
Mu Jiuyue immediately made the decision and settled on this shelter.
She called Lao Hou and asked him to order a batch of building materials so she could start the renovation right away.
The reason we didn't hire a construction team but did it ourselves was...
Of course, it's for the sake of secrecy!
They've already hidden themselves; if they were to let others know their location, they'd be courting death!
When the apocalypse comes, the construction crew will know there's a prime location here, and they'll fight tooth and nail to take it.
Mu Jiuyue has always been very capable with her hands since she was a child. She has done all kinds of jobs, including simple tasks like bricklaying and carpentry.
So she only asked for the materials and did all the modifications herself.
Mu Jiuyue returned to downtown K City and first found someone to order a mobile house.
Mobile homes don't need to be very large.
A little over 100 square meters is enough, with three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom.
The entire steel structure is reinforced with thickened concrete, and a solid foundation is laid, creating a massive concrete lump that can withstand the bites of poisonous insects.
Mu Jiuyue took care of the rest of the interior decoration herself.
Lay water and electrical lines, install sockets, lay flooring and ceilings, and install bathtubs, toilets, and sinks.
Each room has a heated kang (a traditional heated platform bed) for warmth and protection from the cold.
The closet was crammed full of bedding, warm clothes, shoes, and socks.
Then it was put into the space and placed directly in the cave.
After adjusting the location, they began laying the electrical circuits inside the cave.
Mu Jiuyue spent three days illuminating the entire cave, turning it into a small, complete shelter once the generator was plugged in.
Seeing the finished product, Mu Jiuyue finally breathed a sigh of relief, and half of her anxiety was relieved.
After looking at the photos, Lao Hou gave Mu Jiuyue a thumbs up and told her that all the seeds and seedlings of various grains, medicinal herbs, vegetables, and fruits that he had ordered had arrived.
Mu Jiuyue happily stuffed it into her spatial storage, planning to study farming when she had time.
She can do everything, but she really can't farm.
So she went and bought a bunch of books about planting.
It was only then that she forgot about the need for spiritual nourishment.
She went online and placed a huge order, having people download all sorts of electronic food products for her.
I want everything, whether it's from China or abroad, whether it's from modern times or contemporary times, as long as it can be found online!
At this moment.
Wei Lie finally found out Mu Jiuyue's whereabouts.
When he learned that Mu Jiuyue had frantically bought a lot of supplies, he was immediately intrigued and gave orders to his men to buy them in categories such as clothing, food, housing, and transportation.
He had a premonition.
Mu Jiuyue must have found out something.
Moreover, it is a matter of life and death for humanity.
"This is the last batch of supplies in September." Old Hou pointed to a large pile of prepared food in front of him and said, "Two of the cooks collapsed from exhaustion, and the other two are too tired to work overtime."
"That's about enough." Mu Jiuyue said after collecting the last dish of food, "This is enough for the two of us to eat for a lifetime. I have a lot of food stored over there, so we won't have any problem eating and drinking our fill."
"What should we do next?" Old Hou asked.
"Close the restaurant and send everyone away." Mu Jiuyue paused for a moment and said, "There are less than half a month left before the apocalypse. Let them go home and reunite with their families."
“Okay, I gave each of them two bags of rice, two bags of flour, and two barrels of oil, plus an extra two thousand yuan bonus,” Old Hou said. “That’s all we can do.”
Mu Jiuyue was very satisfied with Lao Hou's clear-headedness.
Very good, no unnecessary words, no saintly attitude.
Mu Jiuyue and Lao Hou packed up the last few things, put them into their spatial storage, and then went to the shelter to make final preparations.
"Apply more acid-resistant paint here so we can withstand the acid rain." Mu Jiuyue handed the paint to Old Hou on the shelf. Old Hou took it with a cigarette in his mouth and said, "You've done a great job with this little house. It's more than enough for the two of us."
"That's right." Mu Jiuyue said proudly, "It cost me 500,000 to customize the frame!"
Rumble.
The sound of machinery could be heard outside.
Mu Jiuyue and Lao Hou's colleague were stunned for a moment.
What is this sound?
The two of them came down from the scaffolding and came to the outside of the cave, where they were immediately stunned by what they saw!
Several helicopters landed on a nearby platform, bringing a bunch of unfamiliar tools, and began digging a hole not far from their cave.
At the foot of the mountain, a convoy of fully loaded transport vehicles, carrying a lot of supplies, wound its way uphill.
"Old Hou, didn't you say that no one comes here?" Mu Jiuyue turned her head and glared at Old Hou.
Old Hou scratched his neck and said, "Yes, nobody came here before. I was the only one who found this cave back then. I never thought anyone else would know about this place! What do we do now?"
"What else can we do? More neighbors, of course," Mu Jiuyue said helplessly. "Hopefully, they'll be easygoing neighbors who won't cause trouble. Otherwise, we'll have to find another shelter."
Judging from their impressive display of force, they can't be stupid, right?
Just as Mu Jiuyue was about to retreat, she heard a familiar male voice: "Hi, we meet again!"
Mu Jiuyue turned around abruptly and saw Wei Lie wearing a black training uniform, waving at her.
His smile was so bright, I really wanted to punch him and smash his face.
Mu Jiuyue turned and left, with no intention of catching up with him.
However, Wei Lie only needed one sentence to make Mu Jiuyue stop in her tracks and greet him with a smile.
Wei Lie said, "I found another box of those rings from last time, do you want them?"
