Hua Mi hung up the phone with Chi Chuan and sat inside the counter, reaching into the level 6 storage to grab a pack of spicy potatoes to snack on, vexedly wondering where she could place a bulk order for rescue equipment for the relief team at this time.
She had no other choice, this was Gong Yi’s dying wish, and she initially didn’t want to do it, but since Cao Feng was incapacitated, she took it upon herself to help since she had the capacity.
Unable to think of any other solutions, Hua Mi turned on her cellphone to start browsing online where there were indeed some rescue equipment available:
Hand-crank radios, compasses, folding shovels, multifunctional survival axes, safety ropes, stainless steel whistles, SOS toolkits, first-aid manuals, PVC raincoats, escape masks, thermal blankets, fire extinguishers, nursing packs, long-burn candles, emergency matches, non-slip gloves, compressed biscuits, Fluorescent Sticks, carabiners…
She bought X52 of each item.
The reason she settled for 52 was that she wanted to buy 1,000,000, but the online shopping site prompted her that it exceeded the maximum purchase quantity.
Having no other option, Hua Mi could only turn to other online shops to place orders, but in peace times, few people needed these items, so there weren’t many stores selling related rescue equipment online.
Even in other shops, the maximum quantity available was only X100.
Hua Mi was busy from daylight until night, and still only managed to order a few thousand of each rescue equipment item.
With the road conditions in Xiang City, who knows how much would actually be delivered.
Too disheartened.
The drizzle outside the supermarket never stopped, and in the pitch dark outside the door, Huo Jing rushed into the supermarket wearing a raincoat.
He urgently said,
“Miss Hua, do you have raincoats for sale? Is there any way to get raincoats? Umbrellas would also do.”
Hua Mi sat behind the counter, staring blankly at Huo Jing, who was wearing a woman’s raincoat that seemed too small.
She then listened as Huo Jing explained,
“It’s like this, my whole family moved into the temporary relief center, but we weren’t well-prepared before, and it’s been raining all day, seriously affecting our movement.”
He spoke with a sense of helplessness, before their whole family had planned to move to the neighboring city, but then half of that city collapsed, and now the whole family was living in a relief center, only to discover that they were unprepared in every aspect.
Even the most basic rain gear, the entire family, young and old, only had one piece.

They wanted to go out and buy some, but there wasn’t a single stall in the entire relief center selling rain gear.
Sometimes it’s just like that, the more you want something, the harder it is to find it.
It was really frustrating.
Hua Mi looked at Huo Jing and couldn’t help but smile,
“Yes, and I have plenty.”
Some time ago, when she was shopping at the street stalls, she shrewdly bought out all the rain gear from one stall.
Saying that, Hua Mi pulled out a pack of men’s raincoats, a pack of women’s raincoats, and three packs of children’s raincoats from under the counter.
She knew Huo Jing had many family members, but Huo Jing’s small family consisted only of himself, his wife, and their three children.
“I can give you these raincoats, but you’ll have to do some work for me.”
Hua Mi stood up, pointing at a patch of wasteland outside the supermarket,
“Help me level that piece of land. I just need you to clear three square meters for me, I need it right now.”
Actually, the workers who had installed the generator set had already cleared the area around the supermarket for Hua Mi.
But Hua Mi had dug a shallow trench in that circle of land and put up a wire fence, so there wasn’t three square meters left for her Black Land.
She needed to tidy up a flat piece of land closest to the supermarket for cultivation.
This way, she wouldn’t have to worry about her Black Land being too far from the supermarket when encountering unpredictable disasters in the future, which would require her to travel a great distance to cultivate it.
Huo Jing in the supermarket turned his head to check the sky outside, and it was already dark. He nodded,
“Okay, I’ll get that for you.”
Huo Jing wasn’t a vague sort of person, he had been helping Hua Mi out recently. Although it was tough work on the collapsed ruins, he could get a case of mineral water and five packets of instant noodles from Hua Mi each day.
At first, for a day or two, this case of mineral water and five packets of instant noodles could save the lives of Huo Jing’s family of five.
But later, after donations from various sectors arrived, for the rescue center that provided three meals and two snacks a day for survivors, this amount of supplies wasn’t worth much.
The mineral water and instant noodles weren’t used up by Huo Jing’s family.
But they hoarded them all.
Occasionally counting them, the cases of mineral water and piles of instant noodles surprisingly accumulated into two small hills for the Huo family.
Watching Huo Jing’s figure disappear into the curtain of rain, Hua Mi turned on the surveillance computer on the counter and patrolled the surroundings of the supermarket, then went upstairs to sleep.
She slept quite heavily, in fact, she didn’t go to bed late, but the next morning, she was slow to wake up.
Sleepiness! She had probably been too exhausted recently and developed a problem with excessive sleepiness.
It wasn’t a big issue, Hua Mi didn’t think it affected her.
The rain was still falling, the fine drizzle wasn’t heavy, but the weather was overcast and cold. The cold snap hadn’t arrived yet, but the continuous rainy season had come first.
Barely opening her eyes, Hua Mi checked her phone and saw a message from Huo Jing; he had cleared a 10-square meter area for her overnight.
But he hadn’t mentioned anything about wanting extra pay.
Hua Mi felt this guy was really easy to deal with.
She lazily got up, brushing her teeth and washing her face slowly, while with a listless gaze, she read the message sent by Ye Rong.
[Ye Rong: picture.jpg]
What the hell?
Hua Mi waited for the picture to transmit, and after a careful look, it turned out to be a photo of Cao Feng sitting up.
“Hey, the young man’s pretty good!”
She finally shook off some of the lethargy, smiled, pressed on the photo of Cao Feng, forwarded it to Gong Yi, and then sent him a message,
[Hua Mi: I’ve ordered a lot of food and water, but I can’t find enough rescue equipment. If you have any connections, please let me know, and I’ll get in touch.]
There was no reply from the other end, probably busy turning over stones.
After Hua Mi finished brushing her teeth and all, she took out a piece of bread from the level 6 storage, and while eating, she continued to shop online for rescue equipment.
Ding! Chi Chuan sent her a message,
[Chi Chuan: Sister Hua, I have a friend of a friend of a friend, who wants to offload a bulk lot of solar panels. Do you want them?]
Hua Mi propped her head up, glanced at the drizzle outside the window, yawned with low energy, and replied,
[Hua Mi: Yes, haul them all to Xiang City.]
The cold snap was coming, and the solar panels might not be usable, but that was okay. After the cold snap would be the scorching heat, and the blistering sun that could dry people into jerky every day.
By then, the solar panels would come in handy.
She had money, she was capricious, and she just wanted to buy, buy, buy.
Chi Chuan replied with a smiley face, and didn’t message back.
Then Hua Mi lay down on the counter and inexplicably fell asleep again.
