The three Zhang Yi returned to the neighbourhood pushing three large carts of supplies.
Along the way, many neighbours saw this scene and could not help but talk about it.
Zhang Yi wasn't afraid of being seen, after all, some of the neighbours had already seen it when he was shopping at the supermarket.
Moreover, Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining would definitely spread this matter afterwards.
There was no point in hiding in the slightest.
He had even anticipated the time of doom, when quite a few people would try to rush into his house to rob things.
All of this was something he had actually experienced.
But he wasn't afraid yet, because in this life, he would prepare in advance.
It was to make those people see, but not eat, and in the end, they could only be angry.
Zhang Yi and Fang Yuqing they lived in an apartment building.
Because Zhang Yi worked as a manager in Walmart's warehouse, the neighbours often asked him to help them buy discounted things.
Therefore, everyone knew Zhang Yi.
Seeing that Zhang Yi and the three of them had bought so many things, an old lady who had brought her grandson out to play came over.
She looked at the food inside the trolley, as well as the fresh beef and mutton, and was instantly a bit tempted.
"Little Zhang ah, why did you guys bring so many things back. Isn't it disposed of inside the warehouse."
"You won't be able to use up so much, why don't you give some to the neighbours?"
This was Auntie Lin, who worked in the property committee, and usually relied on the fact that she had a bit of power in the neighbourhood, so she often pointed her finger at the neighbours, treating herself as a leader.
In the past, she also often asked Zhang Yi to help her buy cheap discounted goods, and her character was extremely fond of taking advantage of small advantages.
And in her previous life, she had also relied on hucksterism to ask for some food from Zhang Yi.
But when all the neighbours rushed to Zhang Yi's house to rob it, instead of stopping it, she acted more energetic than the youngsters.
Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining didn't want to mess with this woman, and hurriedly said, "All these things were bought by Zhang Yi, we're just helping him return them."
Big Aunt Lin's eyes immediately looked towards Zhang Yi and said with a smile, "Little Zhang, it looks like it's something from your warehouse. How about sharing some of it with Big Aunt Lin?"
As she spoke, that grandson of hers, Xiaohu, had already climbed onto a trolley and reached out to pull out a box of chocolates.
Don't look at him as a small man, but his eyes are very vicious, that box of imported chocolates sells for more than two hundred in the supermarket.
Zhang Yi without saying a word, split his hand and snatched the thing back.
Then he coldly said to Auntie Lin, "Sorry, I'll keep these for myself!"
Anyway, it was going to be the end of the world soon, so he didn't even bother to be polite now.
Aunt Lin's face suddenly changed, "You ..."
Zhang Yi was so disrespectful to her, the leader of the neighbourhood, that it made her very angry.
Especially her grandson Xiaohu, after being peeled away by Zhang Yi, was crying for chocolate.
"Little kids don't know any better, otherwise you can just give him a box of chocolates! Consider it my purchase and I'll give you the money back."
Big Aunt Lin said in a deep voice.
Zhang Yi, however, had his mouth turned away.
Nowadays, it was all about mobile payments, paying was incredibly convenient.
When she said something about giving the money back, it was obvious that she wanted to renege on the debt.
"I said, this is for me to eat myself. Go to the supermarket and buy it yourself if you want to eat it!"
Zhang Yi sneered, then greeted Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining and left.
Just as they left with their front feet, the sound of Auntie Lin's loud curses came from behind.
Zhang Yi turned a deaf ear.
Aunt Lin's son and daughter-in-law were working outside, and she was the only one at home with her grandson.
On weekdays, the old woman only bought food for one day.
So after the end came, their family's supplies were the first to run out.
In the beginning, Zhang Yi's soft heart helped them, but in this life, without Zhang Yi's help, it's a miracle that this immoral old woman and her mischievous grandson Xiaohu can survive for ten days.
Zhang Yi didn't want to mess with the corpse.
It was not that he was cruel, but when that day came, it would be very difficult for everyone to take care of themselves.
Other people's lives and deaths would naturally have to be behind him.
When he had pushed all three carts of supplies back home, Zhang Yi let them leave.
"Zhang Yi, don't forget to treat them!"
Fang Yuqing winked playfully at Zhang Yi.
However, after Zhang Yi saw it, he only felt a wave of revulsion inside.
He made a perfunctory gesture.
The two women had planned to stay and look for clues that Zhang Yi was an invisible rich second generation.
But seeing that Zhang Yi looked like he had no intention of entertaining them, the two had no choice but to leave first.
After they left, Zhang Yi opened his alien space and then put everything inside.
He was prepared to observe if there would be any changes when these materials were placed in the space.
After doing so, it was already very late in the day.
Zhang Yi did not rush to rest, but took out a pen and paper to plan in detail the preparations for the next month.
Although he was usually lazy, but in order to stay alive, people were always able to burst out enough potential.
"If you want to live comfortably in the end of days, the first thing you need to do is to take care of the food problem, this is a good solution."
"Apart from the things I pick up on a daily basis, everything else can be taken from amongst the warehouse. But this can't be rushed, you have to do your research first."
"And it has to be collected a few days before the end, to avoid attracting attention. If you get caught, you definitely won't be able to survive a few days in the squad room."
Zhang Yi wrote down the word 'food' on his book and put a tick after it.
"Then there's heating."
"After arriving at the end of the world, the energy supply is extremely short, and air conditioners will soon be out of use."
"Then the simplest method will have to be used. Fireplaces are the first choice!"
The fireplace and the kang are similar in principle, both using primitive methods to heat the house.
The winter temperatures in Europe were particularly low, and all used this method to get through the long winter.
"In that case, the house will have to be redecorated again, preferably with an insulating heat barrier."
Speaking of renovation, Zhang Yi thought of his previous life when his house was broken into, and he could not help but feel a tightness in his heart.
"It is also necessary to make my house an impenetrable steel fortress."
"The first thing is to fully pretend thick steel plates, at least it has to be able to withstand normal blasting."
After the doomsday came, people would do anything to survive, and one had to be completely prepared.
One could not joke with the safety of their lives, Zhang Yi had already tasted death once and would never want to experience it a second time.
The problem of the safe house is also good to solve.
Tianhai City had security companies that specialised in doing security work for the powerful and wealthy.
Among them, there is the service of creating a safe house.
Zhang Yi remembered that in his previous life, there was once a top tycoon who built a super fortress that could even withstand attacks from small h-weapons.
"Then, there are medicines. I have to prevent myself from getting sick and not being able to heal."
"There are many commonly used medicines amongst Walmart's warehouses that can treat minor illnesses like colds and fevers. But these are far from enough."
"The Cambrian storm lasts for decades at least, I have to be prepared for everything."
Fortunately, Zhang Yi's connections in Tianhai City were relatively good.
After all, he was in storage management, and he knew some of the hospital storage staff.
As long as they could give out enough money, they could get whatever medicine they wanted.
After these issues were resolved, Zhang Yi tapped on the book with the biros in his hand.
"Next, there's one last issue that needs to be resolved."
His gaze became sharp.
"That is weapons!"
With the arrival of the end of the world and the loss of humanity, fights for supplies could be seen everywhere.
Human life was like grass, and if you wanted to stay alive, you had to have enough force.
Zhang Yi was not a fighting expert, but even the highest martial arts skill was afraid of a chopper.
As long as the weapons prepared were strong enough, there was no need to worry about such problems.
"The cleaver, crowbar and axe are good to get."
"There are also channels for bows, air guns and compound bows."
"But the most powerful of all, of course, is still the American Curve. This thing, the only way to obtain it is through the black market."
Zhang Yi stroked his chin, there was no way to fix this problem for the time being.
But he still had a month to go, so as long as he was willing to spend money, there should be a way to get it done.
He spent three hours working out the perfect plan before taking a painfully hot bath and then lying down on his comfortable bed to sleep.
...
Early the next morning, Zhang Yi got up from his bed.
He had not slept very well during the night, during which he had woken up several times due to nightmares.
After waking up, he realised that he was still lying in the warm and comfortable bed at home, and only then did he let out a long sigh of relief.
That period of time at the end of the world had caused great damage to his mind.
In order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, Zhang Yi became even more determined to be completely prepared!
Zhang Yi woke up and made himself a breakfast.
Then he opened the foreign space to check the changes in the supplies thrown into it.
To his delight, the meat and fruits and vegetables that had been left for a night had not changed at all.
Meat could not be seen for a short period of time, but fruits and vegetables would easily become unfresh after a night.
However, after placing them in the foreign space, the fruits and vegetables were just as they were when they were bought yesterday.
"My foreign space is independent of this world, perhaps the rules of time change are different."
"It's possible that time flows more slowly or is even static. This is great news!"
"In this way, I can put all sorts of things inside without fear."
However, when Zhang Yi checked the few fish he had put in, he found that they were all dead.
They were lifelike after death and did not appear to have deteriorated.
Zhang Yi stroked his chin and understood some more rules of using the alien space.
"Living things can't survive for a long time when put inside, it looks like my idea of living in it myself is not very practical."
It wasn't a big problem, the inside of the alien space was white, how could it be as comfortable as Zhang Yi's own home.
As long as he was able to put things inside, it would be fine.
Thinking this way, Zhang Yi's mind was filled with many things.
Since he could preserve fresh meat and vegetables and fruits, what about prepared meals?
Although Zhang Yi could cook by himself, but in the end, the gap was still not small compared to a professional chef.
In the future, he could only rely on himself to cook, and it would get tiresome for him sooner or later.
Thus, Zhang Yi immediately called the biggest five-star hotel in Tianhai City.
"Hello, this is Hongfu World Hotel. May I help you?"
Zhang Yi immediately said, "My family is going to invite guests inside my house and have a big three-day and three-night banquet. So I need to book 500 tables of meals!"
The person on the other end of the phone was also taken aback.
500 tables of food, it would take a long time for them to do it.
Moreover, they were a five-star hotel, and the cheapest table would cost three to four thousand.
If 500 tables went down, that would be more than a million!
The waiter didn't dare to take matters into his own hands and quickly said, "Please wait, I'll go ask our manager."
After a while, another person took over the phone.
"Hello sir, I am Chen Dingfang, the manager of Hongfu Hotel. I wonder how you are addressed?"
