In The Last Days Of Natural Disasters, 100 Million A Day Is Frantically Hoarding Goods

Chapter 9 Exchanged Two Catties Of Gold And A Pigeon Egg Diamond Ring

In the face of disaster, supplies come first.

No one dares to be sloppy.

After a while, only one person passed by.

When Rong Huaiyan was about to leave, Qiao Xiachu stepped forward, the rain was splashing on the umbrella, the sound was so loud that it almost drowned out all the noises.

"Mr. Rong, I want to ask—"

"I know."

Before she could ask, Rong Huaiyan showed a trace of emotion on his cheeks, his tone was not as cold as before, and his brows softened a little, knowing what she wanted to ask, he said: "Wait for my news, don't act rashly, don't leave Tianding for now .”

After speaking, Rong Huaiyan turned and left.

Under his leadership, a group of people boarded the plane with an owner on the 10th floor, and soon penetrated the rain curtain, left Tianding, and disappeared into the sky.

Yunsu stepped forward quickly, walked up to her, and asked, "Sister, do you know that person?"

Qiao Xiachu's expression was slightly rippling, and he shook his head: "I don't know."

In the previous life, it was not Rong Huaiyan who carried things for Mo Bai, but how could such an important thing be easily entrusted to ordinary people, it must be someone he can trust.

When she heard Rong Huaiyan's words, although she didn't understand the reason, there must be a reason for Mo Bai that it was inconvenient to see her, so she was not in a hurry now.

It's just that she doesn't need to talk to outsiders.

Trust is a dangerous thing in the last days.

"I think he seems to be a person with status. If we can know him, can we move to a safe place." Yunsu said his thoughts.

It took so long for the relief supplies to arrive at Zoucheng and Tianding. They must have overcome all difficulties and obstacles along the way to finally come here.

Given the chance, she wants to get out of here.

Qiao Xiachu was noncommittal.

Leaving is not so easy.

She held the bag in her hand, and glanced at it lightly. It was complete, including instant noodles, mineral water, and steamed buns, boiled eggs.

According to this amount, it is a day's amount for a person to say less.

"It's great to have something to eat, it's saved, we're all saved—" Grandma Liu shouted excitedly.

The others also showed hope one by one.

What could be more convincing than materials?

As long as there is food, there is hope of survival, and one day when the rain stops and the flood recedes, everything will return to the world before the flood.

Qiao Xiachu didn't say a word.

It's good to be optimistic, at least you'll feel better in your heart, but when hope turns into despair, it's the scariest thing.

Back in the house, Qiao Xiachu locked the double security door, put the instant noodles on the table, then took out a cup of milk tea from the space, tore off the packaging, poked the tube in with a bang, and drank the milk tea while drinking Roll iron.

Life goes on and on, and you don't stop pulling iron.

"The rain has stopped—"

At this time, a fierce shout came from the opposite building.

Everyone looked at the misty sky expectantly.

Sure enough, the rain stopped.

"Great, great. We're saved now, God won't just sit idly by, and will definitely give us a way out, hahahaha."

"God has eyes."

"We are saved. When the water recedes, I want to eat skewers, I want to eat hot pot, I want to watch TV all night long, play games and brush copies, woo woo, save the child—"

Many people poked their heads outside and issued a liberation declaration by their windows.

Excited, excited, and full of hope for the future, everyone seemed to be waiting for the weather to clear up and live the normal life in the past.

yes.

In the past, I always felt that life was unsatisfactory and all kinds of things were not good. For the first time, I realized that the ordinary days in the past turned out to be so beautiful and colorful.

Qiao Xiachu closed all the windows, took out the family bucket from the space, stuck the fried chicken legs with two fingers, chewed slowly, and savored the joy of fried chicken with iced milk tea.

Although it's summer, it's been raining all the time, so it's not very hot, but no matter what, we have to respect this season. Summer is not perfect without iced milk tea.

Qiao Xiachu ate and drank happily, and burped a lot. Seeing that there were still two roasted wings in the family bucket, he threw it back into the space.

The water level will not recede for a while, and there is no place to throw garbage.

Residents in the building directly throw out the windows. The flowing water used to take away the garbage. Now when the rain stops, the garbage will accumulate in the community. The smell of rotting garbage will be absolutely disgusting.

After she had eaten and drank enough, she continued to practice.

Judging from her personal experience that night, the fighting skills and knife skills left by Mo Bai are quite good. When confronting the enemy, how strong is it to control the enemy with one move.

However, it is still quite dangerous to face the enemy's battle-tested mercenaries and the like.

Fortunately, in a short time, they will not meet in Zoucheng.

She had to train at a faster pace to get stronger, stronger.

Five days in a row.

The rain stopped, but the flood did not recede.

Everyone who had hoped so much was dumbfounded.

"Why hasn't the flood receded?"

"what's going on?"

"I want to go out, I want the internet, I want calls and water—"

The screams like howling wolves can be heard endlessly.

When the second batch of supplies arrived, everyone was restless. One after another, they chased the deliverers, asking what the hell was going on with the weather, and why the disaster hadn’t passed after the rain stopped.

The staff are also helpless.

What they know is limited, they just follow the orders from above to distribute supplies, and they risk their lives every time they go out.

The residents took the supplies and wept bitterly.

Some people wanted to leave Tianding, took out their big red plastic basins, scooped water out, and paddled with the basins, trying to swim away, but they turned somersaults after a few strokes.

In the end, they had to thump in the stinky water and swim back disheveled.

Hope is slowly castrated, making people irritated and increasingly unstable.

Qiao Xiachu doesn't care.

She repeatedly trains with irons every day, teases cats, and watches dramas in her spare time. She has watched "Forrest Gump", "The Shawshank Redemption", "I Am Legend" and other movies hundreds of times. And books, brushed over and over again.

Of course, there is a generator installed in her house, and there is enough gasoline in the space. If she wants to heat hot water, or take a hot bath, and wash her hair, it will also generate electricity normally.

The only inconvenience is cooking.

Even if the range hood is powered on and the windows are closed, there will still be a smell of oily smoke wafting out. At this moment, being watched by someone can easily attract a group of hungry wolves.

Still don't risk yourself.

During this period of time, I usually eat stir-fried vegetables and rice bought from restaurants. Sometimes I want to drink soup, so I boil some water and directly use boiling water to make a cup of seaweed soup.

The food in the restaurant is too greasy, so I just put some dried noodles, cracked two eggs, and a few slices of green vegetables. It tastes very light, but it is enough to have enough nutrition, and I don’t need to pay attention to anything.

Of course, if someone outside sees this, Ha Lazi might be lost all over the place...

Qiao Xiachu smelled the stench coming in from outside. Looking outside, the water below became still water and stopped flowing. Every household threw out colorful plastic bags, cardboard boxes, garbage bags, and a pile of The messy garbage, soaked in water and slowly fermented, exudes a strong stench under the recent continuous high temperature of 37-8 degrees.

She closes the window and turns on the air freshener.

The air finally got better.

After walking two steps, she found a few bugs in the corner.

not good.

Once the operation of the community is stopped and the sanitation cannot keep up, cockroaches and mice will gather in groups. Many people are not starved to death, but are harassed to death by crazy insects.

Qiao Xiachu quickly took out the insect spray, sprayed all four corners once, then transferred a bag of cement from the space, mixed part of it, and blocked all the floor drains, water pipes and other places.

Anyway, the water will be cut off permanently, so when going to the toilet in the future, just like Xiao Hei, use cat litter.

Although there is a pastoral area in the space, she can produce and sell it herself, but it is a bit heavy taste, so let's use it first, let's see the situation later.

bang bang bang—

There was a loud knock on the door outside.

"Miss Joe—"

A familiar voice sounded.

Qiao Xiachu looked through the cat's eyes and found that it was the property manager of the community.

She opened the anti-theft door inside, and asked through the thick iron door, "What's the matter with you?"

The administrator said earnestly: "The community has no water, electricity, or internet. I'm here to ask if your family has an assault boat. Someone is willing to exchange gold bars for—"

Qiao Xiachu looked wary and said, "Why didn't you show up a few days ago?"

When this incident was mentioned, the administrator also looked embarrassed: "I was broken by Xie Jinfang a while ago, and I have been recuperating at home, and then I got better. I want to find a way to see if I can contact the head office..."

Qiao Xiachu said lightly: "Oh."

She is about to close the door.

She has an assault boat.

It's just who knows what they're up to.

"Wait, don't worry, I have no bad intentions, but the owner of the 12th floor is actually my boss. He wants to organize people to deliver supplies for disaster relief. There are gold bars at home that can be exchanged..." the administrator said.

The owner of the property lived on the 12th floor, but Qiao Xiachu knew it very well.

In the previous life, the overlords smashed open the door on the 12th floor first, beating the old gold master to the point of crippling.

Qiao Xiachu needs some gold bars.

It's been a long time since I got gold bars and precious stones, and the space hasn't changed at all. The farms and pastures and the vast open space were all "fed" by her with treasures in her previous life.

She thought for a while and said, "I only have a small assault boat. I originally planned to wait for the rain to stop and go out by myself. If you need it, you can exchange it with two catties of gold."

Two catties of gold...

The lion opened his mouth wide.

If this is normal, the administrator will definitely slap her.

But in the current situation, let alone two catties of gold, even three catties and ten catties, as long as you have it on hand, there is no one who disagrees.

He quickly nodded and bowed: "Okay, okay, I'll go get it now, I'll go right away, just wait a moment."

There was a snap.

Qiao Xiachu closed the security door.

When the administrator came over with the dead gold, he was afraid that Qiao Xiachu would regret it, so he hurriedly said, "Miss Qiao, there is also a ten-carat diamond ring here, which was given to you by our boss. If you don't mind, just accept it." Come down."

Qiao Xiachu nodded slightly.

She took out a low-priced assault boat from the space in advance, regardless of whether the other party had gasoline or not, took the gold directly from the administrator, then handed the assault boat out, and then closed the big iron gate in a hurry.

The administrator twitched.

He shouted a "mullet roe" in his heart.

How ruthless.

Two catties of gold and a ten-carat diamond ring are exchanged for a broken assault boat. After the disaster is over, Qiao Xiachu may not be able to stay in the community anymore.

He slandered in his heart, but he still carefully took the assault boat downstairs. .

Qiao Xiachu didn't bother to care about him.

After getting the gold, she checked the bag carefully, and there were indeed a lot of gold bricks in it. Calculated from the grams on it, it was indeed a full two catties.

Plus a dove egg ring.

Um.

not bad.

She is quite satisfied.

There are more than a thousand assault boats traded.

It's a good deal.

Anyway, there are hundreds of assault boats in the space.

She threw all the golden pigeon eggs into space.

After a while, the gold and diamond ring disappeared

In an instant, the area of ​​the space increased in seconds, the air became fresher, and the usual foggy sky became somewhat clearer.

Great.

Who would think that there is too much space?

Just think of space to eat gold and gems.

I'm a little worried.

She still has 80 to 90 million in cash, but unfortunately she can't buy gold...

Qiao Xiachu rubbed his temples, recalling carefully, who else in Tianding is the boss, and see if they can exchange instant noodles for some gold or jade.

The more the better.

At night, Qiao Xiachu was about to go to bed when he heard three regular knocking sounds from outside.

what.

This sound was the knocking sound that Mobai had agreed with her.

Could it be that Mobai came?

Excited, Qiao Xiachu quickly dressed, with a saber tied to her calf, and a barbell in her hand, she walked carefully to the door and quietly opened the first security door.

"Miss Qiao, it's me..."

A dark voice filled with splashes sounded.

Rong Huaiyan.

Qiao Xiachu still didn't let go of his guard, and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing at my house in the middle of the night?"

It was dark outside.

Rong Huaiyan stood outside the door, apart from being able to hear his voice clearly, he couldn't see his face.

"What a coincidence, my house is in 2003," he said.

2003?

Qiao Xiachu was stunned.

Someone bought the house next door to her, but she never lived in it. From the beginning to the end, she couldn't figure out who her neighbor was.

In her previous life, she had never seen it once.

"Miss Qiao, if you don't mind, you can come to my house for a while. There are some things that are inconvenient to say outside." Rong Huaiyan said.

There are people everywhere in the corridor.

After the house was flooded, they wandered and wandered in the corridors of each floor.

Qiao Xiachu thought for a while, and for the sake of silence, she decided to take a risk, and said, "Then you come in."

Entering a strange place, even someone else's home, is an adventure.

She doesn't want to be too passive.

Anyway, all the materials are hidden in the space, and some obstacles and mechanisms are set up in the hidden places in the room. Once a stranger breaks in, she will lure the enemy into it at any time.

Rong Huaiyan stepped into the room.

When Qiao Xiachu closed the anti-theft door, he looked at the beautiful girl in front of him and said, "It's like this, Qiao Mobai and I met when we were on a mission. I was responsible for their safety during a field mission. We trusted each other when we came close to escaping death."

Qiao Mobai is a biologist.

The field of plants he studies is at the cutting edge.

As early as a few months ago, he discovered that something was wrong with the plants on the earth. After a series of deduction, he found that there might be a series of terrible disasters, and submitted a prevention report in advance.

Unfortunately, the report was not taken seriously.

He could only ask himself to send defense items to Qiao Xiachu, and convey information about stockpiling supplies.

At that time, Qiao Mobai did not dare to be 100% sure. He was worried that the news would spread widely and cause unnecessary riots, so he did not speak publicly.

Of course, his status also restricted him from doing so.

"Now, the first base is under construction, and Mr. Qiao has already brought rare plants into the laboratory. I have conveyed your words to him. He said he will pay attention, so you don't have to worry." Rong Huaiyan said.

Qiao Mobai and Qiao Dongliu are bound to meet.

There is no doubt about it.

Not only because of the father-son relationship between the two, but more importantly, the research directions of the two overlap, and they may cooperate together in the future.

He looked at her expression, saw that she was still not showing any signs, and said: "I am responsible for some things in Zoucheng, and I will stay in Tianding for a few days. If you need to take care of anything, you can mention it to me."

Perhaps, when this sentence was said, it was not only because of Qiao Mobai.

Or maybe the girl is facing a disaster, but she lives her life in a leisurely manner, without panic or crying, as if tomorrow is the end, and it doesn't matter...

Qiao Xiachu thought for a while, and said bluntly, "I really need you to do me a little favor."

"what?"

"I want information on the owner of Building No. 7."

As soon as Qiao Xiachu finished speaking, Rong Huaiyan was slightly taken aback.

He thought she would ask for supplies, but he didn't expect that it was just such a small request...

However, he quickly turned the corner, guessing that she was a girl who was worried about being robbed of rations by people in the same building, so she knew herself and the enemy, and took defensive measures.

After making up his mind, he subconsciously believed her.

"Okay, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

Rong Huaiyan nodded.

This one is easy and effortless.

"Then thank you, I have an apple here as a thank you gift." Qiao Xiachu opened the cabinet, pretended to reach out to take it out, and then transferred a red Fuji from the space.

She didn't take the fresh ones, it was still outside for a long time, so it was a little bit of a mess.

"then."

Qiao Xiachu threw it at him.

Rong Huaiyan caught the falling apple with lightning speed, smelled the aroma of the apple under his breath, nodded to her, and said solemnly: "Thank you."

He stuffed the apple into his pocket, turned around and went out.

Qiao Xiachu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

It is best to have a list. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ma Liuer will collect a batch and fill up the space. Maybe there will be a surprise next time.

Rong Huaiyan is very trustworthy.

Early in the morning, he handed a list to her, and said to her: "Tomorrow is the day when Tianding distributes supplies, you should not go out recently, the flood outside has not receded, and the corpses in the water are rotting, and they are cleaning up. "

"Thank you." Qiao Xiachu said.

She raised the list in her hand, nodded and smiled at him, her black eyes shining brightly.

Rong Huaiyan's gaze froze for two seconds.

For the first time, he experienced the power of a word: pleasing to the eye.

Qiao Mobai once said, when you see my sister, don’t look at her too much, she will bite when she is angry, so be careful to bite you into a fool.

I see……

Rong Huaiyan withdrew his gaze, turned around and left forcibly.

Qiao Xiachu didn't notice the man's momentary absence, closed the door happily, and began to study the rich men in the community.

I have to say that Tianding is really a magnet for rich people.

In one building, there were actually seven rich people living there.

In addition to the property manager on the 12th floor, there are also Internet bosses, the CEO of a best-selling game, a jeweler, and the president of a film and television industry...

Tut tut.

It's too unfortunate for a group of wealthy people to gather together.

Qiao Xiachu laughed happily.

She was thinking about how to find a suitable opportunity to exchange materials for some treasures.

"Aim~~"

Xiao Hei took graceful catwalks and rubbed against her feet.

Qiao Xiachu had a flash of inspiration and thought of a way.
