Feng Qingxue put about a dozen barrel-shaped steel pots in the space, each filled with steaming rice porridges, rice, and soy milk.
Besides that, Feng Qingxue's space also housed a tremendous amount of fresh fruits and vegetables from all over the country, a large number of dried vegetables such as shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, seaweed, kelp, dried beans, a bulk amount of onions, ginger, garlic and pickled vegetables such as sugar garlic, pickled vegetables, and sauerkraut, a mass quantity of grains like red beans, green beans, black beans, yellow beans, black sesame, white sesame, pearl barley, oats, a multitude of cooking oils such as peanut oil, soybean oil, tea oil, sesame oil, rapeseed oil, sunflower seed oil, a lot of condiments such as oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, star anise, Sichuan pepper, shrimp paste, bean paste, various kinds of sugars such as brown sugar, white sugar, black sugar, rock sugar and so on.
Looking at it, it truly was a feast for the eyes.
Many of the items were purchased wholesale from the place of origin. Even the cooking oils were pressed from purchased peanuts, soybeans, sesame, rapeseed, sunflower seeds, at an oil mill. The leftover meal from these oil extraction processes such as soy-cake and peanut residue were kept in the space, lowering the cost greatly.
Medications were essential, like common anti-inflammatory drugs, cold drugs, fever reducers, Band-Aids, trauma medication...
Just preparing food and medicine wasn't sufficient, Feng Qingxue particularly purchased a large amount of fabric, clothes, and shoes from fabric factories, clothing factories, and shoe factories. They were suitable for men, women, the elderly, and children, covering all the four seasons. Although they were not necessarily visually appealing, they were durable and wear-resistant.
If a yurt proved to be inconvenient, there were also tents, sleeping bags and other essentials for outdoor living, as well as rain gear like umbrellas, raincoats, and rain boots.
Considering that she was at the prime of her life and might get married and have children, Feng Qingxue also prepared a large amount of infant and toddler supplies.
Baby formula, baby bottles, medications, clothes, diapers...
Of course, Feng Qingxue didn't forget to prepare her personal hygiene products, bedding, and toiletries that would last for over a decade.
By the end of it all, Feng Qingxue had also gathered various types of seeds.
After deep consideration, Feng Qingxue bought many kitchenware items, such as portable iron stoves, coal ball stoves, a large number of coal balls, coal, a bulk quantity of pots, bowls and spoons, thermal flasks, thermos mugs, various knives, and lighting equipment.
The knives included vegetable cutters, bone choppers, and also those to defend against enemies, such as big machetes, military knives, daggers, etc.
The unknown is the most dangerous so it's crucial to make preparations for her own safety.
No rice means no meals, and no kitchenware would also lead to the same.
After the apocalypse, no one knows what the situation would be like.
Who hasn't read post-apocalyptic novels, even if they haven't experienced one?
Even though those post-apocalyptic novels are fictional, many of their plots are likely to happen.
Having bought many fabrics and woolen yarns, Feng Qingxue also bought scissors, needles, woolen yarn needles, and sewing machines. The sewing machines were the old-fashioned type you operate with your feet. She had learned to use them when she was young, being taught by her grandmother and mother. It was the Phoenix Brand.
Mainly because Feng Qingxue only knew how to use this type of sewing machine and feared that electricity would be unavailable in the post-apocalyptic world.
Nowadays, many people no longer sew clothes. Even tailors who alter clothes use more advanced electric sewing machines. Therefore, these old-fashioned sewing machines were particularly cheap. Feng Qingxue bought ten at once, and the costs for the necessary accessories were minimal.
In the post-apocalyptic world, without clothing factories and purchasable clothes, self-mending will inevitably become necessary.
Under the strict requirements of her grandmother and mother, Feng Qingxue has some sewing skills.
In fact, many young women in this era no longer observed such craft. However, she did. Her grandmother and mother often said that the more skills one has, the better they are prepared for any situation, realizing how valuable a skill could be.
