There were quite a few items, but not an overwhelming amount.
For the ten burly, bald men, this amount of food wouldn't last very long.
Su Nian figured that these must be the supplies they carried in their vehicle for consumption while on the road.
Their hideout must have more supplies.
They had carefully chosen this route, even laying down steel plates to block the road before using a bus to create a barricade. It was clear they were experienced, likely not their first time doing something like this.
Su Nian couldn't believe that this was all the supplies they had.
The problem was, now that these men were dead, how was she going to find their hideout?
Although it was a pity she couldn't get her hands on those supplies, Su Nian didn't regret killing those men.
If you don't remove the roots, the grass will grow back come spring.
Compared to potential threats, supplies were nothing.
After all, she was a woman with billions in supplies!
Su Nian stored all the supplies in her spatial storage and then picked up a steel pipe, rummaging through the vehicle.
Eventually, she found a bag of jewelry, probably weighing tens of pounds, likely looted by these men.
Besides that, there were just some miscellaneous living supplies that Su Nian didn't care for and didn't take.
After getting off the bus, Su Nian walked back.
First, she collected the steel nail board, then moved the bodies to one side before driving away.
After driving for more than ten minutes, Su Nian finally stopped, took out the supplies she got from the bus, and piled them in her vehicle.
These supplies didn't take up much space on the bus, but they filled Su Nian's car to the brim.
Looking at these supplies, Su Nian thought she could exchange them for quite a few contribution points.
To avoid encountering similar situations, Su Nian didn't wander outside anymore.
She took out an iron fence gate, placed it on top of the car, and secured it with ropes before driving back to the first base.
For someone like Su Nian, who had left the base and returned, there was no need to queue with those who had just arrived at the base; she took another entrance.
Driving into the base, Su Nian went straight to the service hall.
It was only eleven o'clock, still early, and the busiest time in the base, with many people in the service hall.
Su Nian found a staff member, mentioned she had supplies to exchange but couldn't carry them in by herself, so the staff member called a few people to follow Su Nian to her car.
As Su Nian opened the car door, the staff members gasped at the sight of the boxes crammed inside.
They were prepared when Su Nian said she had a lot of supplies.
But seeing them in person, they couldn't believe there were so many!
How did a seemingly frail girl like Su Nian come by so much supply?
However, upon meeting Su Nian's cold gaze, the staff members immediately dismissed their doubts and began to inventory the supplies.
How Su Nian acquired the supplies was none of their concern.
What mattered was that among these supplies, tobacco and alcohol were in high demand, and they could keep some for those who wanted them, surely benefiting from it...
The supplies were numerous, but since they were boxed and there were several people counting, the process was quick.
Su Nian exchanged this batch of supplies for three thousand six hundred contribution points.
The rent for Su Nian's house was one hundred contribution points a month.
Meaning, Su Nian now had enough contribution points to pay for three years of rent.
With contribution points in hand, Su Nian wasn't in a hurry to renew her rent.
She had only been at the base for two days and had already accumulated so many contribution points, which could arouse suspicion.
It would be the same if she went next month.
Leaving the service hall, Su Nian drove home in a good mood.
Parking the car downstairs, Su Nian stepped on the tires to climb onto the hood, then from the hood to the roof.
She untied the ropes binding the iron fence gate and, with a push, let it fall to the ground.
The ground was just ordinary dirt, not even hardened, so she wasn't worried about damaging it.
Jumping down from the car, Su Nian hadn't straightened up when she heard someone speak.
"Need help?"
Hearing this, Su Nian paused, then turned to look.
Was he talking to her?
When she saw the man standing at the entrance of the building, Su Nian frowned.
Just by his silver hair, Su Nian recognized him immediately.
It was the man who had sold her the ring.
The ring was still on her finger, and Su Nian's fingers subconsciously rubbed it a few times.
This man looked capable, so it wasn't surprising he could come to the first base.
But the base was so large, and for them to meet like this seemed too coincidental, didn't it?
But if it was said that this man was stalking her, Su Nian found it unlikely.
Seeing Su Nian not responding, Jing Mo asked again with a smile, "Need help?"
Looking at his harmless smile, Su Nian didn't let her guard down, "Why are you here?"
"I live here!" Jing Mo said, pointing upwards with a finger, "I live on the sixth floor."
Su Nian, ""
If someone told Su Nian this was purely coincidental, she would never believe it.
Once or twice could be a coincidence, but to this extent, it seemed premeditated, right?
"You're stalking me."
"No, no, no!" Jing Mo waved his hands, "I just arrived at the base tonight. The housing rental center showed me some houses, and I happened to see you coming down from upstairs. Knowing the opposite door was vacant, I rented it."
Hearing Jing Mo's explanation, Su Nian's frown eased slightly, but she still felt uncomfortable, "Why do you want to live opposite me?"
Jing Mo scratched his head, "I just thought, since we've met before, being neighbors with someone familiar might not be too bad."
Familiar?
Su Nian was at a loss for words.
They had, at most, met three times, and that qualified as being familiar?
However, Su Nian had no plans to rent two apartments, and the apartment opposite hers couldn't stay vacant forever.
Compared to a completely unknown neighbor whose temperament was a mystery, Jing Mo seemed acceptable.
Most importantly, Jing Mo had already rented the apartment, and she had no reason or right to drive him away.
Looking at the iron fence gate on the ground, Su Nian had an idea, "I was planning to install this at my door, but what about putting it at the staircase entrance?"
"Of course!" Jing Mo agreed without hesitation, "Installing a gate like this means others can't come directly to our doors, making it much safer.
You're going out, and I won't take advantage of you for nothing. What supplies do you want?
Let's first move the gate upstairs, then you can come to my place and see what you want, pick anything."
Su Nian raised an eyebrow; he sure talked big!
Was this the same man who had rubbed his stomach, pitifully saying he was going to starve to death?
