Chapter 28 - 2,000 for a packet of instant noodles!

Aunt Lin was robbed of her family's supplies by Chen Zhenghao, and herself and her grandson Xiao Hu were brutally beaten.

The old woman held on to her breath, but she was still able to move around.

However, her grandson, Little Tiger, was severely kicked in the stomach by Chen Zhenghao's henchman, Little Karami!

A six year old child being kicked in the stomach like that couldn't take it at all, and his internal organs were all out of whack.

In desperation, she was only able to ask for help inside the owners' group, hoping that someone could help save her grandson.

However, due to her previous incident of cheating for supplies, it made everyone particularly resentful of her, and no one was willing to help her at all.

"Oooooooooh, I know that what happened before was wrong on my part. But my grandson is innocent!"

"He's still a child, please save him!"

Auntie Lin let out a loud cry in the group, her voice filled with despair.

The owners, however, had no one to sympathise with her.

Instead, some mocked.

"Who knows if it's true or false again this time."

"Right, right, besides, we're not doctors, we don't have that ability to help you."

"If you hadn't lied to everyone about the supplies yourself in the first place, would Brother Howe have beaten your grandson? In the end, it's still your own fault."

Big Aunt Lin broke down and cried, "A thousand mistakes are all my fault, as long as you can save my grandson, I'll kowtow to you all!"

Just at this time, a woman named Zhou Ke'er sent a message.

"Let me give the child a look! But I don't guarantee that I can cure him."

When Zhang Yi saw Zhou Ke'er's message, the image of an imperial lady with a long ponytail and a tall and proud figure immediately appeared in his mind.

Zhou Ke'er was a doctor at the First People's Hospital of Tianhai City.

In her last life, she had used her medical knowledge to save many people.

It was one of the few good people amongst the neighbours.

She was usually a bit high strung and didn't love to talk much inside the owners' group.

It was only this time when she saw that Xiao Hu's life was in danger that she stood up and spoke out.

Aunt Lin also remembered that there was such a doctor in the neighbourhood, and hurriedly thanked her for sending the child there.

After half an hour, Aunt Lin's anxious voice once again sounded in the group.

"Who has haemostatic drugs, anti-shock drugs and antibiotics inside their home?"

"My Little Tiger needs an operation, please help everyone! I kowtow to you all!"

Lin Xiaohu was badly injured, that kick had ruptured his liver.

Although Zhou Tuan'er was a doctor, she didn't have that much medicine at home.

When the homeowners heard Aunt Lin's plea for help, they all smiled and didn't say anything.

Just kidding, no one would have these medicines at home!

Chen Zhenghao was still talking smack in the group.

"How to kowtow, kowtow inside the group?"

A large "hahaha" of laughter came from the bottom.

Big Aunt Lin's voice was tinged with tears, "As long as you guys can help, I'll kowtow now!"

Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows.

Not to mention, he had all these medicines inside his alien space.

However, he would definitely not take them out to save Lin Xiaohu.

For one thing, under the post-apocalyptic world, drugs were supplies as important as food, and he didn't want to expose them.

Secondly, he really hated Auntie Lin and that spoiled monkey child.

Besides, with such serious injuries, even if he was barely saved, he wouldn't be able to survive the long winter.

Might as well leave these medicines behind and use them himself.

In the back, no matter how much Aunt Lin begged in the group, no one came forward to help her.

It was only after a long time that Dr Zhou Tuan'er sent a message in the group.

Saying that she had temporarily helped Lin Xiaohu stop her injuries, but it was only an emergency treatment and wouldn't last long.

After that, he had to go to the hospital for an operation to keep the child alive.

She also said that if people were experiencing an emergency, she could help treat them.

What quickly followed was a bunch of rainbow farts.

Even Chen Zhenghao and the rich second generation Xu Hao were attentive and praised Zhou Ke'er for her kindness as a healer.

In the past, everyone was not too fond of this high and cold female doctor.

However, at times like this, everyone was afraid of death, so they all worked hard to please Zhou Ke'er.

Zhang Yi still didn't speak inside the chat group, only quietly observing the changes in the situation.

In the last few days, Fang Yuqing did not contact him again.

Zhang Yi was also happy to be idle, but he knew that this White Lotus would definitely come over to beg him soon.

Not looking for him now, she just wanted to maintain her pitiful vanity, she had always thought of herself as a high and mighty woman who would not take the initiative to bow down to men.

Of course, except for rich men.

But what about later?

The snow was still falling, and the entire ground floor was completely flooded.

Now, not to mention leaving the district, even if one wanted to leave the district's gate, one would have to face four or five metres of snow.

It was an inevitable thing that supplies would be depleted.

At that time, with this White Lotus's temperament, she would definitely come over to Zhang Yi to ask for it.

...

A week had passed since the beginning of the doomsday.

Seven days was not a long time to say the least, but for a group of people who endured the bitter cold and could only curl up at home every day, it was even longer than spending seven years!

From the beginning, there was still hope within them.

By now, almost everyone recognised the reality.

The possibility of waiting for rescue inside their homes was already minimal.

Because through the internet, they had learnt that the whole world had encountered a mega snowstorm that was rare to come across in hundreds of thousands of years!

The entire world was flooded by the blizzard, and even in some cities in the north, where the temperature reached over a hundred degrees below zero, the blizzard fell even harder, and many cities were directly flooded!

Although the officials were still encouraging everyone to unite and live well through the few channels available.

But looking at the frozen cities outside, everyone's hearts completely sank.

The problems caused by the lack of supplies became more and more acute.

All the food in Aunt Lin's home had been looted by Chen Zhenghao, and her grandson lay dying in bed, causing her to fall into a state of madness.

All day long, she screamed madly in the group, saying that she was the leader of the neighbourhood committee and demanding that everyone must give her all the supplies!

But now, the big guys have kind of learnt their lesson, and no one gives a damn about her at all.

In the owners' group, Xie Limei, a precious mother living on the 12th floor, suddenly sent a message.

"Who still has food at home? My child and I have not eaten for two days. I ... I can buy it at a high price!"

It was this message that caused a subtle change inside the owners' group.

In the past, everyone felt that the disaster would soon pass and the city would be unsealed.

So, although there were transactions of food, the prices were just a few times higher than usual.

But nowadays, more and more people were running out of supplies inside their homes.

At times like this, food was life, the hope of living!

Not long after, someone suddenly said, "I still have a few packets of instant noodles at home, I can sell them to you if I need them. However, I want $1000 for a packet!"

1000 for a packet of instant noodles!

This was something that was unimaginable to even think about in the past.

They probably didn't even think about how much of an impact this one transaction would have on the entire Owner's Building.

Zhang Yi looked at his mobile phone with his chin in his hand and said indifferently, "Wonderful things are about to begin."

Xie Limei did not reply, obviously still somewhat hesitant.

At least for now, people were still holding on to a glimmer of hope that the snowstorm would pass.

When it did, people would still have to live, still have to make money.

Just at this time, Xu Hao, the rich second generation who hadn't spoken in the group for a long time, suddenly appeared.

"I'll offer 2,000 for a pack! How many your family has, I'll take them all!"
