When Su Can looked at the two snowmobiles in storage, he was very satisfied. With these things, his worries about the future naturally lessened.
Su Can stretched lazily as he thought about what to do next. Finally, he decided now was the time to buy fuel.
With this thought in mind, Su Can walked out. Just as he reached the entrance, he saw a familiar truck.
"Mr. Su, Mr. Su!" the driver called out and waved at Su Can enthusiastically.
"It's you," Su Can said as he waved in return. The other party was sent by the canned food company to help Su Can arrange the canned food in the warehouse.
"Mr. Su, you're the first person I know of who bought so much canned food from our company," the worker said with a friendly smile.
"That's because I like canned food," Su Can replied and returned the smile, "I guess I'm the only one who has such a weird taste…"
The worker laughed and waved his hand before he said, "No, no. You don't know this, but recently, we received a lot of orders. They're also buying a lot of canned food…"
"Is that so?" Su Can raised his eyebrows when he heard this. At the same time, he speculated that the country must be making preparations as well.
There were only about 40 days left until the apocalypse. Su Can made up his mind to speed up his preparations and complete everything before time was up.
…
At the supermarket.
Li Jiayue looked at the vegetables and complained, dissatisfied, "Things in the supermarket have become much more expensive recently… Yesterday, a catty of vegetables was sold for five yuan, but today, it suddenly rose to 18 yuan. This is really too expensive…"
"Is that so?" Su Can asked as he scratched his head. After purchasing the supplies, he still had quite a few million left, and the prices of vegetables were not worth mentioning to him after all.
Li Jiayue frowned before she suddenly asked, "By the way, do you think…"
Li Jiayue trailed off.
Su Can looked at her in confusion. "What's wrong?"
Li Jiayue's frown deepened as she said, "More and more people are talking about an apocalypse recently. The temperature had eased for two days, and everyone's suddenly talking about an apocalypse…"
Su Can nodded. "Indeed, there's a lot of news about this…"
Su Can had been keeping up with the news on the Internet. Everyone was becoming increasingly certain that a large-scale disaster was looming on the horizon, and this, in turn, affected the prices of many things. However, he was not worried. After all, he had already prepared everything he needed.
At this moment, Li Jiayue looked at the display and asked, "By the way, do you like beef?"
Su Can nodded. "I quite like it."
As soon as Li Jiayue heard this, she selected the best grade of beef and placed it in her cart as she said with a smile, "Then, you're in luck today…"
Su Can smiled. "Is that so? I look forward to it…"
…
At this time, a senior executive of the bank looked at the investigation report that his subordinate presented to him and frowned. "So, you're saying he bought millions of cans of canned food for his own consumption?"
Then, his tone grew indignant as he continued to say, "Do you think I'm f*cking stupid? How can one person eat so much canned food? He won't be able to finish it in his f*cking lifetime!"
The bank employer, who was in charge of the investigation, shrank back in fear. An aggrieved expression could be seen on his face as he said, "I know that, but that's what he said… Moreover, after observing him for a few days, it really seems like he has no intention of making profits from the canned food. That's why I concluded the investigation."
The senior executive sighed. "Apart from this, what else did you observe?"
"Speaking of this… In fact, during this period of time, apart from Mr. Su, there are quite a number of people stockpiling canned food as well," the bank employee said.
After handing over a long list, the bank employee said, "This is the result of the investigation after a few days. I don't know what's going on with these people, but they've been buying a lot of canned food recently… The canned food they bought can last them for a lifetime. Moreover, many of them requested canned food that can be kept for decades…"
Upon hearing this, the bank's senior executive stroked his chin and murmured to himself, "There's such a thing?"
After a moment, he said to the bank employee, "Very well, I have no more questions. You can take your leave."
"Alright."
After his subordinates left, the senior executive looked at the documents on his desk.
The people who hoarded the canned food were scattered all over the country, but they all belonged to the group of people who believed in the impending disaster.
'Is this really the reason?'
The senior executive frowned.
Previously, to find out what was going on, the senior executive had deliberately joined a group chat of people who believed in the apocalypse and pretended to be someone who was trying to obtain supplies. As expected, most of the people seemed to be joking, but Su Can seemed to be serious. The time Su Can prepared for all this coincided with the time he spoke to Su Can. He was certain that Su Can was aware of something. However, if Su Can knew something, why did Su Can have to join the group chat? Did Su Can have some ulterior motive?
The senior executive stroked his chin and mulled over the matter carefully.
