Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

54 days until the end of the world.

I got up at seven in the morning, did a ten-kilometer endurance run, went home to take a shower, and fed the two little ones with goat milk before taking a car to the car rental company where I had paid the rent a few days ago.

She rented a silver Wuling van. After registering with her ID card and paying a deposit of 8,000 yuan, she paid a month's rent directly, 200 yuan a day, which came to 6,000 yuan a month.

Although cars are in short supply after the apocalypse, they are also very likely to attract excessive attention, and vans are not suitable for driving on mountain roads or places with poor road conditions. Gu Tongwan has his own plans for this, so he is not in a hurry to buy a car and still chooses to rent one.

Moreover, cars are rather expensive, and she currently has limited funds, so she can only change her car-buying plan to look for an opportunity to buy it for free after the end of the world.

As for why she rented a van, it was because she often needed to go out and transport goods during this period. The sedan did not have enough space to carry much goods, and if it was a pickup truck, the supplies piled in the back could easily cause trouble, so a mini van was the most suitable.

Not only did she rent this Wuling Hongguang, she also rented a Ford F650. This car has a large fuel tank capacity of 600L, so she can fill up at least 550L of diesel every time she goes to the gas station. In the future, she will need to use diesel generators, especially large generators, which have a staggering hourly fuel consumption, so she has to be prepared.

It's not that she hadn't thought about purchasing a batch of gasoline and diesel from black market traders, but the country has strict control over fuel. She couldn't buy a large amount of fuel after asking several black market traders. In the end, she could only find a way to rent a car with a large fuel tank. At most, she could just go to a few gas stations a day to fill up the gas a few more times.

As for gasoline, I plan to rent a Toyota Tundra with a large fuel tank later, and get some gasoline in a similar way. However, I currently have limited funds. The deposit for the Ford alone is 50,000, plus the daily rental of 500, so there are only a few hundred thousand in my card at the moment. I have to plan when spending money.

Driving a rented Wuling Hongguang, Gu Tongwan couldn't help but raise his lips when thinking of the two little ones stumbling after him just before he went out. Do they think of him as their "mother"?

Driving to the farmers' market ten kilometers away, the lively scene here is so lively that it is hard to imagine that this place will be dead silent in the near future.

According to my own stockpiling plan, the first stop is the farmers' market, the second stop is the electrical market, the third stop is the outdoor goods store, and the fourth stop is the large supermarket department store.

Of course, it is impossible to visit all the above places in one day, and it may even take several days to purchase from one place.

The area she bore the brunt of was the raw meat section.

Today the prices of beef and mutton have been high. Beef is 48 yuan per pound, mutton is 40 yuan, pork ranges from 15 to 25 yuan depending on the part, and ribs are as high as 32 yuan.

Of course, the above is only the market unit price. If you buy it at wholesale price, you should be able to get a discount of 15 to 20 percent on the market price.

Although the price is relatively high, considering the various natural disasters sweeping across the world in the end times, not to mention meat, even the most common potatoes and sweet potatoes will become rare delicacies. In his previous life, Gu Tongwan remembered that what he ate the most was the mutant rat meat in the sewers and the roots of a kind of wild grass buried deep in the soil.

Because he had limited funds, Gu Tongwan tried his best to spend money wisely every time.

"Boss, give me 500 kilograms of pork, beef, and mutton, and 200 kilograms of pig's trotters, pig's liver, and pig's large intestines..."

This farmers' market is the largest in the nearby urban areas. Some large restaurants or chain supermarkets even purchase hundreds of kilograms of goods a day. The boss is no longer surprised by people who purchase in large quantities. He immediately turned to his wife and said, "Calculate the price for this beautiful lady."

A total of 100,000 yuan was spent on buying pork, beef, mutton and various parts of meat. Seeing that there was still half space in the van, Gu Tongwan went to the poultry area and bought processed chickens, ducks, geese, pigeons and quails. He ordered 300 of each, which also cost nearly 50,000 yuan.

On the way to pick up the goods, he met a bun shop next door that was selling all kinds of fresh buns. White hot steam was rising and the aroma of wheat was coming towards him. Gu Tongwan directly ordered all kinds of buns, a total of 2,000 buns. Among them, there were buns with pork and preserved vegetable fillings, pork and water chestnut fillings, beef and green onion fillings, red bean paste fillings, fennel and white mushroom fillings, red bean paste fillings, and taro fillings. He took 500 first and came back the next day to get the rest, which cost 3,000.

As soon as the van was full, Gu Tongwan drove the car to a corner of the farmers' market. He lowered the car curtains and put all the supplies directly into the space.

I repeated this process three times before I was able to fit all the things into the space.

Then he drove the car to the rice and flour area.

I quickly bought a large amount of rice and flour, 500 kilograms of rice and 600 kilograms of various types of flour, and the remaining grains and beans were each 50 kilograms in bags. It cost more than 10,000 yuan.

Afterwards, he went to the vegetable section and bought potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, broccoli, chili peppers, cabbage, Shanghai greens, etc., spending more than 8,000 yuan.

Until after four o'clock in the afternoon, except for seafood and fruits, which had not yet been purchased, two-thirds of the space of more than 30 square meters was now occupied by various meats, rice, noodles and vegetables.

While waiting for the goods to be packaged, Gu Tongwan bought another 300 kilograms of compressed biscuits online. These mini compressed biscuits were only half the size of a fist, but came in many flavors, including scallion oil, peanuts, red dates, sesame, and minced meat.

Not only compressed food, but also self-heating hot pot, there are more than 200 boxes.

These foods are the most convenient and filling in the apocalypse, but Gu Tongwan does not plan to buy too much. After all, during the period when the real natural disaster comes, she can still go out to search for supplies here. In the apocalypse, the truly rare foods are fresh vegetables and meat, especially when eternal night and extreme cold come. A large amount of land cannot be used for planting. Only a small amount of vegetables such as mushrooms and leeks that do not like sunlight can be cultivated.

However, just sitting in the car for a short ten minutes cost nearly three thousand yuan.

On the first day of stockpiling, the total cost was about 180,000 yuan.

Gu Tongwan knew that the supplies he bought were far less than he had expected. After all, there was only so much money in his small treasury, and he could only do things within his means. He would stock up more when he got the money after some time.

After arriving home, Gu Tongwan immediately placed orders online. He mainly purchased various seasonings, especially peanut oil and salt. These had become scarce goods when all food processing factories were shut down at the end of the world. In the first month of the end of the world, a barrel of peanut oil that originally cost 120 yuan could be sold for 500 yuan, and a bag of salt that originally cost 2 yuan could be sold for 30 yuan. Three years later, these supplies could only be enjoyed by a small number of privileged people, and ordinary people could only eat tasteless baked potatoes or compressed biscuits.

As someone who had experienced the eight years of the apocalypse, Gu Tongwan knew well the pain of not having enough to eat. When the extreme cold came, there was not even tree bark to chew on.

She bought a batch of seasonings and spent more than 30,000 yuan, but it was not enough. The things she bought could only last for three to four years even if she used them sparingly. This time she planned to live longer than her previous life, and she needed more gold to upgrade the space. More importantly, the water and energy problems had not been solved, but most of the funds she had were spent like water. This made Gu Tongwan feel a sense of crisis.

How can money come?

He muttered something, and as if his words were coming true, the system's voice suddenly rang out.

[A wanted criminal has been detected, located near the "Furong Community" five kilometers away. You can get 300 points for completing this task. ]

This made Gu Tongwan's eyes suddenly light up. This system is not so deceptive sometimes. Is this a way to make money?

When he closed his eyes, he saw something on the computer screen. It marked the specific location of the fugitive "Xue Minghai", which was in Box F on the third floor of a KTV near Fu Furong Community.

Gu Tongwan glanced at the time. It was now 9:30 in the evening. He then checked the bounty on "Xue Minghai" on his phone and his eyes suddenly narrowed.

One million and a half? Or a financial fraudster?

No wonder the bounty is so high. In the past four years, this man used the shell companies in his hands to pull tricks of making money out of nothing, and raised tens of billions of yuan in financing. In the end, he absconded with the money. He has been living overseas for the past two years and dared not to come back, but now he is in China for some reason.

No matter what, he couldn't let the duck that came to his door fly away. Gu Tongwan changed into sportswear, went to the gate of the community, scanned a shared electric motorcycle, and twenty minutes later he arrived at the KTV city.

He found the door of Box F, but he didn't dare to act rashly when he was not sure how many people were inside. So he specially opened a small box nearby, but he went to the bathroom frequently, mainly for the purpose of finding an opportunity to enter Box F.

Just when she was thinking about how to find out the news, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the F box finally being opened. It was filled with smoke and it seemed that there were several men drinking and hugging each other.

As luck would have it, the man who pushed the door open was Xue Minghai. He seemed to have drunk quite a bit of alcohol and was even staggering as he walked.

Gu Tongwan followed closely and saw Xue Minghai turn around and go into the bathroom.

He glanced at the "Out of Service" sign on the side and placed it outside the door.

After a while, a muffled groan and the sound of splashing water came from the men's restroom. It seemed to be just a matter of a moment, and everything returned to calm.

In fact, it’s not that Xue Minghai is not cautious enough, but he was depressed after escaping for two years. The main purpose of returning to China this time is to transfer part of the domestic funds to overseas accounts as soon as possible. If the middleman had not been caught, he would not have had to make this trip himself.

He solved all the problems during the day and was dragged out for drinks at night. Thinking that it was only a matter of one night, his current identity and face had been tampered with, so who could possibly recognize him?

With this lucky mentality in his heart, even when he saw a girl appear in the bathroom, Xue Minghai only squinted his eyes in amazement at Gu Tongwan's beauty, and even had some obscene thoughts in his mind.

As a result, when a fist hit him in the face, Xue Minghai was sobered up and wanted to stand up and fight back, but it was too late.

This girl looked weak, but she was very strong, and her moves were even as vicious as some professional thugs he had seen. After a while, Xue Minghai couldn't even resist and was punched so hard that bubbles came out of his eyes.

When Captain Chen, who had received the call, brought his men over, they also gasped. They saw Xue Minghai, whom their bureau had been tracking for more than four years, lying on the toilet, soaking wet, with his hands tied behind his back and his mouth blocked by his own socks. This scene was all too familiar.

Whether it was the way the binding was done or the fact that the cubicle was so clean that there was no trace of a fight, this meant that Xue Minghai was subdued by the other party in one move.

Although Xue Minghai was not a gangster, he had at least evaded arrest by the police many times, so he must have some skills. But now he was lying on the toilet like a dead dog. Who on earth was he...

Captain Chen glanced over there and saw a young woman leaning leisurely against the sink, looking down at her phone with a serious expression, as if she was busy looking at something. When he got closer, he could vaguely see that it was a food delivery platform.

Do you have time to watch midnight snacks? Or are you in the bathroom...

But when the girl raised her head, Captain Chen's pupils shrank suddenly. Why is it her again? !
