Chapter 90 - gas stations

Zhang Yi knew this area too well, throughout Tianhai City, the warehouses of hundreds of groups were concentrated here, both big and small.

If he could gather all the supplies back, not to mention himself, even feeding a few thousand people would not be a problem.

Only, whether those supplies were still there now or not, that was the biggest problem.

Zhang Yi took out his pistol and crowbar and came to the warehouse of RT-Mart not far away to check.

He took the crowbar and smashed the window directly from the top.

As a result, he poked his head inside, only to find that the large factory building had become empty at this time.

"Been transshipped away?"

Zhang Yi's mind was prepared for this, so he was not too surprised.

He continued to come to the other warehouses and the result was the same.

The warehouses for medical equipment, household goods, food, and even snacks and pet food were all emptied.

"It's the same as I thought."

"When a disaster happens, those official experts will be the first to report the situation. The people up there will definitely have to transfer the supplies."

That was why, Zhang Yi had to empty the Walmart warehouse a week in advance.

He knew that once the disaster struck, those powerful bigwigs would only prioritize themselves and would not consider the deaths of ordinary people.

Zhang Yi did not give up the search.

There were hundreds of warehouses here, so there might be something in there that hadn't been taken away and happened to be of use to him.

Sure enough, after half a day's work, Zhang Yi found a warehouse where cars were stored.

The area inside was millions of square meters and very wide.

On the steel racks, cars were neatly arranged like sardine cans.

There was no lack of many luxurious cars inside, capable of selling for large millions of dollars before the end of the world!

But now, they were complete waste and could not really think of any use for them.

After seeing so many vehicles, Zhang Yi also felt very chickenish.

He straightened his teeth, and after half a day of agonizing, he finally clenched his teeth, "Anyway, there are still so many places in the space, so let's throw them in first. In case it is useful in the future?"

Men, all love cars.

Seeing so many expensive luxury cars inside, Zhang Yi thought of collecting them and playing with them, although there was no way to drive them at this time, he could also get addicted to them.

Consider it as a high-level model.

So he picked a dozen of his favorite cars and put them into his alien space.

Next, for the whole day, Zhang Yi was busy in this warehouse area.

Most of the warehouses were emptied, and the ones that remained were those that were not convenient to carry away.

For example, large mechanical equipment, or batches of decoration materials.

Not a single bit of food or use was found!

Zhang Yi gritted his teeth, endured the nagging pains, and picked up many things like rags.

Heavy trucks, excavators, Rolls Royce Phantom, bulldozers ...

"What if I can use it in the future?"

Zhang Yi advised himself so.

Then he felt that his idea was really funny, in the freezing weather, this kind of car can't even run for a centimeter when driven out, so it's of no use whatsoever!

Luckily, the alien space was big enough to stuff all these cars into it and it was still spacious.

After half a day, Zhang Yi thinks it's about time.

There was no more value in exploring this place, and he didn't have anything else that he desperately needed right now.

He took out a piece of chocolate from the foreign space and quickly ate it into his stomach.

It was the cold wind that poured into his mouth when he ate, the taste was slightly unpleasant.

It couldn't be helped, drinking hot water was out of the question right now, once the lid was unscrewed, it wouldn't take more than half a minute for it to cool down.

Zhang Yi fished a mouthful of snow from the ground and stuffed it into his mouth, making up some water to drink.

Then soon, he thought of another place he needed to go.

Because of the many cars, gasoline and diesel were associated with it.

Originally, the gasoline and diesel stored in the alien space was enough for daily life.

But according to the current situation, he would apply a lot to snowmobiles as daily transportation.

In that case, the amount of those stored would not necessarily be enough.

Out of caution, Zhang Yi still decided to go to a gas station to see if he could get some fuel.

Zhang Yi mounted the snowmobile and after pondering for a while, he drove towards the largest gas station in Tianhai City.

Not long after, he arrived at the location in his memory.

However, after arriving here, the scene in front of him made him exhale a long breath of white smoke.

The huge gas station had been completely covered by the falling snow.

Zhang Yi was only able to judge its location by the tall buildings around it.

Although he had been mentally prepared, he was inevitably still a bit disappointed.

"There are no high-rise buildings at the gas station, so in that case, wouldn't it be impossible to find a place to refuel?"

"Damn it!"

Zhang Yi frowned, somewhat helpless at the situation in front of him.

Just according to the current thickness of ice and snow, digging by human power was almost impossible.

Moreover, hell knows how many years the snowstorm would last.

Could it be that he would have to conserve oil in the future?

Based on the stock in his isospace and how much oil the snowmobiles consumed, they might be depleted in twenty years.

This was not good news!

"Manpower is still really weak, if only we could use large mechanical equipment to dig."

Zhang Yi smiled as if mocking himself.

Just as he was about to twist the key to leave, he suddenly seemed to think of something.

"Excavation equipment?"

"Is an excavator possible?"

He had just picked up some operating vehicles from the warehouse, including a few excavators.

Originally, he had only picked them up for collection, waiting for the future when he might have the chance to use them.

He didn't expect it to be used so soon!

Digging a hole in the snow with an excavator was definitely a breeze.

But to be honest, this thing was really quite rare.

After all, it was rare to see such deep snow and ice on planets in the past.

Even more so, no one drove an excavator to work in the North Pole, and people used icebreakers.

However, after Zhang Yi carefully thought about it, he thought that this idea was absolutely feasible!

Right now, the snow and ice accumulation time is less than a month, and did not form too hard ice, with the excavator can be dug!

Underground snow and ice at most a dozen meters, he only need to dig to the windows and doors and other entrances can be broken into.

So, it wouldn't take too much time.

"Feasible!"

Zhang Yi did as he said, and directly fetched a large excavator from within the Other Space.

"Bang!"

The nearly twenty-ton excavator slammed heavily on the ground, and surprisingly, it directly sunk in by more than a meter!

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yi lightly laughed, "This is good, saving me from digging down."

The snow on the surface was still relatively thin after all, and was simply unable to withstand this kind of weight.

But the snow below should have accumulated thicker.

It was Zhang Yi's first time driving an excavator, but it was not a big problem.

He had driven cranes, forklifts and big trucks before when he worked in the warehouse.

This thing was no big deal, and he knew how to drive it after a little bit of pondering.

Although he didn't dare to say how good his skills were, he could at least operate it.
