Chapter 5 Stocking up on supplies

After leaving the gym, Qiao Yun took a taxi using a taxi-hailing app.

The things she bought at Dongdong last night will not be delivered to the villa until the afternoon, so now Qiao Yun plans to look for some seeds first.

Seeds that can grow in harsh environments and whose fruits can satisfy hunger.

Qiao Yun came to a flower and bird market, and as soon as she entered the flower and bird street, she saw a familiar figure.

Qiao Yun knew that person. She was the person who played the most critical role in the battle to reclaim the area at Mogao Base during the end of the world - Liu Ruxu.

Liu Ruxu is a dual-power user. She possesses both wood and fire powers. She can attack and defend with ease in battle.

The point is that she is a beautiful woman, and I don’t know how many teams are vying for her.

But her ending was not as good as expected. After the regional offensive and defensive war was successfully concluded, Liu Ruxu lost news.

Rumor has it that she was kidnapped by another base, and others said that she was imprisoned as an experimental subject.

As for what the truth is, it is unknown.

Such a powerful person must be a good choice if he is included in the team. Qiao Yun thought like this, and followed behind him, planning to find an opportunity to get close to him.

In the blink of an eye, Qiao Yun lost the person.

While he was looking around, a hand suddenly rested on Qiao Yun's shoulder.

"Sister Qiao, it's really you!"

Qiao Yun looked back and saw a man with a big head and a big smile. He was her squad leader—Zhao Liang.

"I didn't even recognize you, why did you cut your hair?" Zhao Liang looked Qiao Yun up and down.

"I'm here to buy some seeds." Qiao Yun was still looking around for Liu Ruxu, and there was no need to plan to say anything more to Zhao Liang.

"Buying seeds? My family buys seeds, come and take a look?" Zhao Liang took Qiao Yun's wrist and entered his store.

This store is not big, but the things are neatly arranged and look well-organized.

"What kind of seeds should I buy?" Zhao Liang stood in front of the shelf with his arms folded and looked like a boss.

Qiao Yun looked carefully at the unlabeled seeds on the shelf and was confused. She didn't recognize any of them.

"I want to buy some good seeds, ones with a short growth cycle, and edible ones." Qiao Yun picked up a bag of seeds and weighed them, "What kind of seeds are these?"

"What you're holding is sunflowers." Zhao Liang pointed to the thing in Qiao Yun's hand, turned around and rummaged through the shelves, "Why didn't I know you still had this hobby?"

"Those with a short growth cycle, cucumbers, lettuce, etc. are all pretty good." Zhao Liang took down a pile of bags from the shelf and hugged them to his chest.

"If you think it's good, wrap it up for me and get more. Then give me some corn and potato seeds." Qiao Yun naturally didn't understand this, so since she wanted to buy them, she bought them all.

"Okay, rich lady, can you carry so many of them back?" Zhao Liang sorted out a bunch of them as Qiao Yun asked and put them on the table.

Qiao Yun looked at the seeds. They all looked different, but she couldn't recognize any of them. "You put the label on them first."

Zhao Liang did as he was told, turned around and took a piece of label paper from the cashier drawer and started working.

"When you're done, you can move back with me and teach me how to do it." Qiao Yun took out her phone, unlocked it skillfully, and opened a taxi-hailing app.

Zhao Liang worked very neatly. He put the labels on in just a few clicks and put the scattered seeds into large boxes and sealed them with transparent tape.

"Okay." Zhao Liang raised his head and shouted to the attic, "Grandma, come down and look at the store for a while! I'll go deliver the goods."

After saying that, he and Qiao Yun went out together.

As the car drove along, Zhao Liang was not idle and asked loudly, "Sister Qiao, why did you buy so many seeds?"

Qiao Yun was too lazy to pay attention to him. She looked through the logistics information of the furniture she ordered last night on her mobile phone and casually responded, "Hobby."

Zhao Liang is thick-skinned and is not afraid of embarrassment. After all, he is the leader of the class and he should care about his classmates.

So he continued to ask questions tirelessly.

"Sister Qiao, aren't you a survival enthusiast?"

Of course Qiao Yun is not that interested.

If the end of the world wasn't imminent, she wouldn't be interested in running here and there every day. Wouldn't it be nice to curl up at home and watch dramas with the air conditioner on?

The journey was smooth, and in about half an hour, the two of them successfully arrived at the suburban villa.

"I'll go! Sister Qiao, is this your house?" Zhao Liang got out of the car and was shocked when he saw the double-story luxury villa.

Qiao Yun didn't have a deep bond with her classmates, and she was the taciturn type in class.

She usually only communicates with Cen Gui and Qin Mian, so the classmates in the class only know her as follows: she is a woman, beautiful, and has a partner.

Qiao Yun did not answer, but took Zhao Liang straight to the garden behind the villa.

"I want to plant it here." Qiao Yun pointed to an open space in front of her.

Tong Tianhui has taken good care of this place. Although he has not lived here for a long time, the weeds in the garden do not grow wildly, and it looks like it has been carefully taken care of.

Zhao Liang knelt down and loosened the soil with his hands, and then his eyes lit up, "Sister Qiao, this land is perfect for planting. This is a good land for sowing!"

"You actually understand this?" Zhao Liang's reaction made Qiao Yun's eyes light up.

"Of course, my grandparents are doing this all day long, so naturally I can do it." Zhao Liang stood up and patted his chest with a proud expression on his face.

Zhao Liang's planting skills are indeed impressive, but with his unreliable appearance, it remains to be seen whether he should be included in the team. Qiao Yun thought to herself.

"How about I hire you to come and take care of it for me?" Qiao Yun pointed to the large box with seeds on the side and raised her chin at Zhao Liang.

Zhao Liang scratched his head in confusion and muttered in a low voice, "Okay, okay, but this is too far from my store."

Also, it takes more than half an hour one way, and without waiting for a red light, it is a bit troublesome to go back and forth every day.

After thinking about it, it would be a good thing if the survival team had a member with planting skills, and settling down could achieve sustainable development.

However, Zhao Liang was not familiar with Qiao Yun, and he did not know his behavior. It was not a wise move to stay hastily.

Qiao Yun folded her arms and thought.

Seeing that Qiao Yun was thoughtful and didn't want to answer, Zhao Liang picked up a branch from the side and bent down to divide areas in the garden.

"This area is for planting corn. The amount of corn is large and it matures slowly, so it doesn't require a large area. This area is for potatoes..." Zhao Liang said to himself while working.

Qiao Yun saw Zhao Liang's every move, and doing things in an orderly and planned manner was the basic standard for a team in her mind.

"Move here." Qiao Yun opened her lips and uttered two words, staring at the person with her eyes.

Zhao Liang was startled again and stood there blankly, "I have no problem, it's just that my grandma is old and she still needs me to take care of her."

Zhao Liang's parents work in E City, and he and his grandmother are currently huddled in the attic of the shop. He is really interested in Qiao Yun's proposal to live in a villa and take care of her garden.

Who doesn't want to live in a nice place?

However, due to the inconvenience of my grandmother at home, I thought it was better to decline.

Qiao Yun was thinking that if an old man was added to the team, it would be inconvenient for the team to move.

But the food problem can be solved, and the problem of myself and Cen Gui not being able to cook is also solved.

It is also a good thing to be able to eat hot dishes and rice every day. If the old lady is left at home alone, once the zombies break out, whether she can survive will be a problem.

If you can pull one up, that's one.

"We've all moved here. Don't worry about food and accommodation. I'll take care of it. The prerequisite is that you have to take care of the garden."

At this moment, Zhao Liang just felt that he had gotten a big deal. Could such a good thing happen to him?

Being taken care of by a rich woman and reaching the pinnacle of life is no longer a dream. "Okay, what you said. How to calculate the salary."

Money is not a problem in the last days, and Qiao Yun doesn't know the market price. What if it's too low and people don't like it? "You decide the wages. Pack up and move in tomorrow."

Zhao Liang was stunned by Qiao Yun's words. He had seen rich people, but never such rich people!

"I'll go back and discuss it with my grandma, and I'll call you tonight."

After seeing Zhao Liang off, the courier phone call came.

The home appliances ordered last night had already arrived at the door. Qiao Yun trotted all the way to the gate and paid the workers to install them.

Qiao Yun followed the workers and lamented the convenience of online shopping nowadays. As long as you place an order, the workers will come directly to your door to install and clean. It's good news for lazy people.

After about four hours, the basic electrical appliances were installed.

Water heater, fan, bed, etc.

After sending away the workers, Qiao Yun looked at the bedroom filled with furniture and felt full of accomplishment.

It's time to move in.

As for the luggage to be packed, Qiao Yun did not plan to move all the things from her original home. There were too many scattered things and it was difficult to pack.

If you leave the shelter in the future, you will have to give it up, so it is better not to bring it with you.

Nowadays, just buying enough changes of clothes and daily necessities is enough.

Why not take action now? Qiao Yun took a taxi and headed to the city center shopping mall.

When she walked into a clothing store and faced the passionate sales promotion from the shopping guide, Qiao Yun only felt her ears hurt and her head hurt.

She was most afraid of the shopping guide nagging in her ear, but Qiao Yun ignored it and picked out a few light suits and sneakers based on her own ideas.

Autumn is coming soon, and the temperature in the last days is unpredictable, so you need to prepare enough warm clothes.

Bought a bunch of blankets and baby warmers, enough cotton socks and underwear.

Seeing that this big customer was generous, the shopping guide provided Qiao Yun with door-to-door delivery service. After a simple thank you, Qiao Yun went straight to the supermarket.

Wandering to the daily necessities section, Qiao Yun did not hesitate to stuff all the sanitary napkins on the shelf into the shopping cart.

Sanitary napkins were a scarce product in the apocalypse, and she didn't want to be like the ancient people who had to wear cotton during their menstrual period.

There are also toilet paper. There are too many things to buy. The shopping cart is already full. Qiao Yun only regrets that she has not awakened her space power now.

Seeing that the shopping cart could no longer be filled, the purchase had to be temporarily terminated.

After paying the bill and carrying large and small bags, I took an online taxi back to the villa.
