Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Preparations Under Scrutiny and Secret Moves for the End Times

The way to obtain guns was sorted out, and Zhang Yi felt much more at ease. During the apocalypse, with this weapon, one could have great confidence whether encountering humans or non - human threats.

The next day, Zhang Yi packed some important items in his house into his space. Since his house was going to be turned into a safe house, he had to temporarily move to a hotel.

Early in the morning, three black vans drove into Yuelu Community. A large number of workers from Zhanlong Company in work clothes got off the vans and began to measure the data of Zhang Yi's house. Many neighbors around were also full of curiosity when they saw this scene.

"What on earth has gotten into Zhang Yi? Why is he always up to so many strange things lately?"

Several colleagues also joked, "Yeah. The other day I saw him in the supermarket buying three carts of food!"

"Hahaha! One would think the end of the world is coming. Stockpiling so much food, won't it all be wasted if it expires?"

"Maybe there's something wrong with his mental state!"

Everyone didn't understand Zhang Yi's abnormal behavior, but no one really cared. They just regarded Zhang Yi as a laughingstock.

Even Fang Yuqing and Li Cainin thought Zhang Yi had lost his mind.

Li Cainin suddenly realized, "I get it now. No wonder he went to a Michelin - three - star restaurant that day. He's gone crazy!"

Fang Yuqing frowned, feeling particularly unhappy. When she thought about that day when she took the initiative to approach Zhang Yi and helped him push so many things home until her feet were sore, she was filled with anger.

"What on earth is Zhang Yi doing?"

Li Cainin said with some concern, "He promised to treat us to a big meal. He won't forget, will he?"

She had been longing to have a meal at a Michelin - three - star restaurant.

Fang Yuqing sneered, "Forget it! Looking at his abnormal mental state lately, I wouldn't go even if he invited me."

"What if people find out we're having a meal with him? How embarrassing!"

She planned to catch a wealthy husband in the future, and she mustn't ruin her reputation.

Hearing what Fang Yuqing said, Li Cainin felt very reluctant in her heart, but there was nothing she could do and had to give up.

On Zhang Yi's side, he didn't care at all what the neighbors thought. In a month, they would understand who the real laughingstock was.

Zhang Yi left home and drove to the Walmart warehouse. It was Monday, and it was time to go to work. He also wanted to explore the warehouse thoroughly for future actions.

The Walmart warehouse was in the economic development zone, on the outskirts of Tianhai City. Because the land price was relatively low here, many large - group warehouses in Tianhai City were gathered. Even some pharmaceutical enterprise warehouses were also here. This would make it convenient for Zhang Yi to obtain some special - effect drugs later.

After arriving at the Walmart warehouse, Zhang Yi clocked in as usual. As the warehouse supervisor, he was extremely familiar with this place. It could be said that he knew every warehouse and even every shelf like the back of his hand.

In the past, when he came here, he would feel extremely bored. But today, looking at these huge warehouses and the supplies worth billions, he felt only endless excitement in his heart. Because soon, these things would be taken by him and become the most important living resources during the apocalypse.

As the South China general warehouse of Walmart, the amount of supplies here was beyond anyone's imagination. There were tens of thousands of cases of Coke alone! The entire warehouse covered an area of several million square meters, filled with all kinds of living supplies. Among them, besides food, clothing, hardware tools, and other daily necessities, there were even cars, drones, diesel generators, and barreled gasoline. Virtually, as long as it was something that supermarkets were allowed to sell, you could definitely find it here.

Zhang Yi had worked here for many years and already knew exactly what was on each shelf. Moreover, he was also very clear about the shift schedules and the positions of the surveillance cameras here. Although the surveillance here was very strict, he, who was familiar with the loopholes, could paralyze the entire surveillance system within ten minutes. Then, using the ability of the system space, he could take away all the things here!

However, for now, Zhang Yi was in no hurry to act. There was still plenty of time, and he didn't want to alert the enemy. After strolling around the warehouse, he left.

With a pack of Yellow Crane Tower cigarettes, he came to the warehouse of Ruining Pharmaceutical Company next door. Since they usually worked in the same area, he was quite familiar with the staff here.

After arriving, Zhang Yi found Zhou Hairun, a manager of their warehouse. Everyone knew each other well. In the warehouses of large groups, there were always people who took advantage of the warehouse for personal gain. This Zhou Hairun's brother - in - law was vice - president of Ruining Group. So usually, he had stolen quite a number of drugs from the warehouse and sold them.

After Zhang Yi found Zhou Hairun, he had a chat with him and then subtly revealed his purpose. He hoped to obtain several boxes of special - effect drugs for treating acute diseases.

At first, Zhou Hairun was on guard. But later, when Zhang Yi said that he could pay double the market price as long as the drugs were obtained, Zhou Hairun couldn't hold back anymore. Eventually, the two reached a deal of 3 million for five boxes of drugs.

After sorting out the drugs, Zhang Yi had basically prepared all the supplies needed for the end times. With less than a month left until the end times, he was naturally in no mood to continue working.

So he went to the warehouse manager's office and lied that a granduncle in his hometown had passed away and he needed to go back to attend the funeral and asked for a twenty - day leave.

Zhang Yi usually had a good relationship with his colleagues and the manager, so he wasn't made things difficult for and easily got the leave approved.

For the next period of time, Zhang Yi planned to stay comfortably in a five - star hotel. Then wait for the supplies he purchased to arrive one after another and the completion of the safe house construction.

When he walked out of the manager's office, he happened to see Fang Yuqing bending over, pouring coffee in front of the coffee machine. It had to be said that this woman indeed had the charm of a scheming beauty, with a certain allure in her bones. Even when pouring coffee, she swayed her hips seductively. As a result, some young men were attracted and came to court her.

Beside her, a man invited Fang Yuqing to a Jay Chou concert with a smile, waving the tickets in his hand as if showing off. This man was Zhou Peng. Zhang Yi had a relatively deep impression of him. Because they also lived in the same community. Moreover, he was Fang Yuqing's loyal admirer. In his previous life, he was one of the people who had caused Zhang Yi's death.
