Natural Disaster Strikes: I Stockpiled Billions and Carved My Way Through the Apocalypse

Mu Jiuyue took it and looked at it.

Good guy.

This completely surrounds the mountaintop.

When the mice come, they have to step on a few landmines before they can go home.

“My men have brought the latest news. Four days ago, there was a riot in the southwest shelters, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.” Wei Lie poked at the charcoal fire and said, “The capital is also in chaos. Everyone is vying for power and profit, and they disagree with each other, so they are now fighting their own battles. Because they cannot coordinate, many problems have arisen. This cold snap has killed nearly a million people. Many people are fleeing the shelters in the capital, preparing to head south.”

“The rioters are coming.” Mu Jiuyue sat up straight immediately: “Our K City is neither too far nor too close to the capital, so someone will definitely come.”

“That’s right.” Wei Lie nodded. “The K City shelter is probably going to be in chaos too. Director Lin has already sent me a message, telling me to either take sides or remain silent.”

So what did you choose?

"Keep quiet." Wei Lie replied with a smile, "Even if Director Lin is very capable, I need to see enough strength from him before deciding whether to take sides. Besides, my ultimate goal is not to take sides, but to be independent."

“That makes sense,” Mu Jiuyue said. “So what do you want me to do?”

"Hey, don't say that. I'm not in a position to order you around." Wei Lie waved his hand with a smile: "I just hope that when the rioters arrive, you can lend a hand in areas I can't handle."

“Of course. After all, this mountain is my home,” Mu Jiuyue said. “Even if you hadn’t said anything, I would have still taken action.”

Just then, Secretary Cao came to Wei Lie: "President Wei, there's an emergency. Director Lin sent a message saying he's willing to pay one ton of gold, ten antiques, and 50,000 jin of sugar in exchange for our support of the shelter. If it's successful, he's willing to give you one-third of the rights."

Mu Jiuyue clapped her hands: "Wow, what a grand gesture!"

"Do you want to go?" Wei Lie asked Mu Jiuyue.

"What was J's reaction?" Mu Jiuyue asked back, "I don't believe it. At this point, J hasn't made a single move."

“The J side is currently still carrying out disaster relief operations and should not have time to attend to the shelters,” Wei Lie replied. “It’s just that the sudden cold has also hindered their progress.”

“No wonder Director Lin wants to take action now.” Mu Jiuyue nodded and said, “Since we’re just killing time anyway, it’s good to go and see what’s going on.”

Wei Lie immediately said to Secretary Cao, "Please tell Director Lin that we will go and help."

Secretary Cao: "Yes."

“Although we’ve chosen sides, I don’t recommend getting too involved with the shelter,” Mu Jiuyue said. “How can we tolerate someone else snoring beside our bed? We can’t completely trust Director Lin either. Once he takes control of the shelter, it’ll be time to discard him after he’s done his work.”

Wei Lie smiled without any surprise and said, "That's what I think too. Pushing Director Lin to the top is just for better cooperation in the future. I haven't settled the score with him for letting people come to this mountain. I hold grudges very much."

Mu Jiuyue and Wei Lie exchanged a smile.

Very well, they're all ruthless.

Wei Lie and Mu Jiuyue, dressed in full protective gear, led a dozen or so people, added snow chains to the tires, and drove a large truck toward the shelter.

It used to be inconvenient to travel when it rained, but now it's easy to get anywhere.

There are no roads anymore; you can walk on any icy surface.

While passing through a high-rise residential area, I saw several military green trucks distributing supplies to the survivors who were queuing up.

Several young people, wearing thick coats and shivering from the cold, were still bravely distributing supplies.

Those queuing up looked pale and thin, and despite being dressed in bulky clothes, they were still shivering from the cold.

Just as they were about to pass by the group, someone suddenly rushed out from the crowd, knelt down in front of Wei Lie's car, and cried out in tears, "Sir, please buy me! I never want to live like this again! I'll do anything as long as I have food to eat."

The car braked in time, preventing a collision.

The driver turned to Wei Lie: "What do we do?"

"Turn around," Wei Lie replied without looking up.

Just as the car was about to leave, more and more people rushed up, trying to stop Wei Lie's car.

The people in the nearby military green truck immediately shouted urgently, "Stop them! Quickly, stop them!"

The young men immediately forgot about distributing supplies and rushed to stop the reckless people who were trying to crash into the car.

With fewer people guarding the supplies, some of the people who had been queuing suddenly turned hostile and scattered, ready to grab the supplies and run.

"Let's all rush in and grab these supplies! Those dogs, fed on dog food, are all glowing with health, all paid for with our taxpayers' hard-earned money! And we're left here starving and freezing!"

"Yes, everyone should be allocated quotas based on their ID cards. So many people died, and whose quotas were they? They were all pocketed by those corrupt officials!"

"Rob it! Everyone go and rob it!"

The once orderly queue spiraled out of control.

Several young men were even pushed to the ground and had their weapons taken from them.

I don't know who opened the first gun, but things quickly descended into chaos.

A significant portion of the supplies on the truck was stolen.

Many people got their heads broken in the scramble, and their blood froze before they even bled much, which looked particularly frightening.

The men who had originally blocked Wei Lie's car saw that others were looting supplies, so they turned around and went back to loot as well.

The whole scene was extremely chaotic.

Mu Jiuyue suddenly pulled out an M700, aimed at a man who was brutally attacking a junior soldier, and lightly tapped it.

boom!

A blood-red flower blooms.

The murderer collapsed in disbelief in a pool of blood.

"What are you all standing there for? Move!" Wei Lie gave the order, and the dozen or so men in the car simultaneously grabbed their weapons and called out the names of the perpetrators one by one.

This move completely intimidated the perpetrators.

The young people finally gained control of the situation and pinned the rioters to the ice.

"Don't move! Or we'll open fire!"

Mu Jiuyue jumped out of the car and walked towards a young man.

He glanced at his epaulets and said, "First time carrying out an order? At a time like this, you're still being soft-hearted. You're only hurting your men."

"You are..." The young man glanced at the M700 in Mu Jiuyue's hand and suddenly realized, "Thank you for what you did just now."

"Of course." Mu Jiuyue noticed the bluish-purple frostbite visible beneath the other person's worn gloves.

With a sigh, he took out several tubes of frostbite ointment from his pocket, stuffed them into the other man's pocket, patted him on the shoulder without saying anything else, and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute." The young man called out to Mu Jiuyue, "My name is Tao Xiaohu, what's yours?"

"Mu Jiu".

"Have we met before?"

"Well, probably."
