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

The neighboring hill became the location of Wujia Village.

Having a bigger place and more spacious living is a good thing.

But the thought of them being abandoned and isolated makes me feel particularly uneasy.

Wu Qinglan's mother mentioned this matter when she went to take care of Wu Qinglan.

“Qinglan, why is President Wei so petty? Even if our Wu Family Village has wronged him, haven’t we made amends? How many people in our village have died trying to apologize?” Wu Qinglan’s mother said, “Now our village is left with only the elderly, women and children. If no one protects us, we might be targeted one day and have our throats slit in the middle of the night without even knowing it.”

"Mom, I'm trying to think of a solution, but what can I do?" Wu Qinglan, who was heavily pregnant and could give birth at any moment, said with a worried look, "I can't even take care of myself right now. Mom, these two mountains are close by, so you can at least keep an eye on things."

Wei Lie's team suddenly gained more than a hundred people, making the shelter lively.

Especially the people Duan Qi brought were his and his employees' family members. With so many family members, the atmosphere of daily life became very strong.

Sure enough, in just three days, just enough time for the temperature to rise back to 25 degrees Celsius, these family members had already clearly marked out the caves they had designated for themselves.

When Mu Jiuyue arrived, she saw that several cave entrances had clothes racks hanging up, where families were drying their winter clothes and shoes.

The art style feels completely different now.

"Not bad, Wei Lie." Mu Jiuyue sat down in front of Wei Lie, swayed back and forth, and said, "Finally, you've gathered the people from the next mountain together."

"This is all thanks to everyone," Wei Lie replied with a smile.

"I wouldn't dare take credit," Mu Jiuyue said. "Aren't you afraid that Wu Family Village will cause trouble again by leaving it hanging like this?"

“I didn’t leave them hanging, and I certainly caused them trouble when the time came,” Wei Lie said matter-of-factly. “Village Chief Wu is wicked and cannot be cooperated with. Taking in the people of Wu Family Village will only bring trouble upon myself.”

"Okay, you've thought it through." Mu Jiuyue took out two boxes of fresh strawberries from her space, handed one box to Wei Lie, and then ate them one by one, looking incredibly relaxed.

Wei Lie really liked Mu Jiuyue's relaxed demeanor; it was particularly endearing.

"The temperature is rising, and in a few days we'll be back in extreme heat," Mu Jiuyue said. "The ice on the mountainside is also melting. I want to remind everyone not to wander around outside these next few days. If you accidentally fall into the water, no one will be there to help you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Secretary Cao rushed in from outside.

Secretary Cao greeted Mu Jiuyue first, then said to Wei Lie, "President Wei, the ice on the front slope has melted. Our people went to collect some, and they pulled out a bunch of dead fish. I thought these dead fish looked a bit abnormal, so I had the doctor, chemistry teacher, and biology teacher do some testing. The results are in. These fish died from a type of bacteria we've never seen before."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Lie and Mu Jiuyue stood up abruptly.

Mu Jiuyue spoke softly, "You've finally arrived."

Wei Lie took a deep breath and said quickly, "Quickly, have everyone in the cave disinfected. Everyone who comes back from outside should also be fully disinfected. Also, notify Lin Zhen and Director Lin to stay vigilant."

"Okay." Secretary Cao turned and walked out.

Wei Lie turned to Mu Jiuyue and asked, "Jiuyue, tell me the truth, will these viruses and bacteria contaminate our existing supplies?"

"I'm not sure." Mu Jiuyue thought for a moment and said, "This virus can only survive in high temperatures. Materials stored at low temperatures should not be contaminated."

"Understood." Wei Lie said solemnly, "From now on, we all need to be careful! I have some supplies here that cannot be stored at low temperatures, I hope you can help me store them."

"The key." Mu Jiuyue didn't waste any words and stretched out her hand to Wei Lie.

Wei Lie skillfully placed the key in her palm and recited the new password.

Every time Mu Jiuyue received something from Wei Lie, she was shocked.

This time, at least there's no need to be shocked.

Because she finally got used to it.

All I can say is that Wei Lie is a real master of managing a household.

With his ability to gather supplies, he could easily become a quartermaster in any dynasty, regardless of his rank.

As usual, Mu Jiuyue collected all the supplies that Wei Lie had asked her to take!

After Mu Jiuyue finished doing all this, she turned around and prepared to leave.

He hadn't walked more than a few steps when he suddenly saw Wu Qinglan, heavily pregnant, looking at him warily: "Ajiu, what are you doing here?"

"Then what are you doing here?" Mu Jiuyue retorted. "Are you about to give birth? Running to the warehouse area, are you planning to give birth in the warehouse?"

"Don't try to fool me. You're not planning to steal anything, are you?" Wu Qinglan looked at Mu Jiuyue warily. "I knew it. You're so young, yet you're already harboring wicked intentions. You're no good!"

Mu Jiuyue pointed at herself in shock: "Me? Embezzling money?"

"Hmph, you're just relying on your relationship with President Wei. Do you really think you can do whatever you want?" Wu Qinglan became angrier as she spoke. "Even if President Wei is still interested in you now, he'll get tired of you sooner or later! Hogg is President Wei's true right-hand man, the person he can truly rely on. The day President Wei gets tired of you, that's when you'll be abandoned!"

Mu Jiuyue became more and more confused: "No, can you speak like a human being? What is my relationship with Wei Lie?"

"Still pretending?" Wu Qinglan glanced at Mu Jiuyue with disdain: "You've always been aloof from women and refused to accept the girls from our Wu Family Village, isn't it because you like men?"

Mu Jiuyue scratched her head: "I like men, that's not strange, is it? It would be strange if I liked women, okay?"

"You finally admit it!" Wu Qinglan said arrogantly, as if she had known all along, holding her belly. "I knew it. You and President Wei weren't just friends."

"What do I have to admit?" Mu Jiuyue was even more confused: "Forget it, I'm not going to argue with you. Think what you want."

After saying that, Mu Jiuyue turned to leave.

"Want to leave? Not so easy!" Wu Qinglan grabbed Mu Jiuyue and said in a sinister tone, "Today, if I don't get you away from President Wei, I'm not Wu Qinglan!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Qinglan suddenly raised her voice and shouted, "Help! Help! Someone is trying to take advantage of me!"

Mu Jiuyue was completely stunned!

Those who rushed over after hearing the cries for help were also stunned!

Wu Qinglan tore open her clothes, looking humiliated, and sat on the ground, sobbing, "I can't face anyone anymore, I don't want to live anymore!"

The next second, Hogg arrived.

Seeing Wu Qinglan throwing a tantrum, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes. If it weren't for the fact that she was pregnant, he would have left!

Wu Qinglan grabbed Hogg's pants, crying and screaming, "Husband, do you believe me or Mu Jiu? He's trying to take advantage of me!"
