Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

"Miss, it's not a good idea for us to leave like this. What if the lady finds out that we are not there and blames us?"

At this time, at a gathering near Ciguang Temple, two girls, one in white and one in pink, were walking among the crowd.

The leading woman in white had a face as white as jade, skin as white as snow, a pair of bright and clear eyes as bright as stars, and lips that were red without any rouge. Although she had not fully grown yet, one could already glimpse her future beauty and glamour.

The pink-dressed woman following behind seemed to be a maid, with a round face and big almond-shaped eyes that showed a bit of naivety. At this moment, there was a trace of sadness on her face, as if she had encountered some troubles.

Although because of Ciguang Temple, people here can see some dignitaries almost every day, but when they see Shi Anan and Fu Xin's outstanding temperament and appearance, they still secretly admire them.

After hearing Fu Xin's words, Shi An An said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid. Even if the sky falls, I'll still hold it up. Besides, we didn't go too far. We were just strolling around nearby. We can just go there and wait before 3 p.m."

"Besides, they all went upstairs to eat vegetarian food. Are we going to starve in the car?"

Due to the popularity of Ciguang Temple, over time, gatherings similar to temple fairs formed around it.

Many villagers nearby would bring some local specialties to sell or set up stalls to sell food, and peddlers from other places would also pick out some novel gadgets.

Shi Anan took Fu Xin to eat some noodles and then went for a leisurely stroll.

Although the technology of this dynasty was backward, some handicrafts were quite exquisite. She happened to see a vendor selling wood carvings, and the carved pendants and ornaments were very artistic.

Unfortunately, the wood used is not very precious material, and although the craftsmanship is good, it lacks innovation.

Shi Anan asked the waiter and learned that a palm-sized wooden carving pendant could only be exchanged for 500 copper coins, while a larger desktop ornament could be exchanged for 1 silver coin.

Before, she was dissatisfied that the model she got from the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion could only be exchanged for 20 silver coins, but now it seems that it was too much.

Later I visited other stalls selling woven or embroidered products, and the situation was similar to this one.

There are still too few things at the gathering, I still have to go to the shops in the capital to have a look!

Seeing that the time was almost up, by the time the two of them reached the carriage, Fang and the others had finished praying and came out.

They returned by carriage just like they came. Shi Anan's carriage was still the last one to come, but the difference was that she let Fu Xin get in the carriage as well.

"Fu Xin, I want to discuss something with you. When we arrive in the capital, you put on my clothes and follow me back first. I have something to do. Meet me at the side door closest to our yard at 0:00 p.m." If she missed this opportunity, she didn't know if she would be able to go out again before the end of the world.

"Miss, what are you going to do?"

"No, no, how can I pretend to be you? I will definitely be discovered. Can't you just tell the lady if you have something to say?"

Fu Xin shook her head and refused without hesitation.

"Oh, I just want to go for a stroll in the capital. Do you think if I tell my mother directly that I want to go out and have fun, will she agree?"

"It's okay, they don't care at all. They haven't even looked at me straight in the eye today. You are about the same size as me. When you get to the mansion, wait for others to go in first, then keep your head down and go back. If Auntie finds out, tell her the truth!"

Even if she was discovered, she would just be confined to her house. By that time, she would have stockpiled supplies and all she had to do was wait for the end of the world.

"But..." Fu Xin still didn't dare.

"Don't say but. I am a young lady and you have to listen to me. Remember to open the side door for me at 4 p.m., otherwise I, your young lady, will not come back." This child is good in every way except that she is a little timid.

Under Shi Anan's powerful suppression, when they arrived in the capital, Fu Xin reluctantly exchanged clothes with her.

Shi Anan lifted the car curtain and took a look. When she happened to pass by the target she had previously taken a fancy to, she lifted the curtain and asked the driver to stop the car so that she could get out and walk.

When the coachman saw someone coming out, he casually glanced at the servant, and found that it was the little maid who went in before, so he stopped the horse without paying any attention. After An An got off, he continued to drive the carriage attentively.

It's no wonder that the coachman didn't recognize her. The third young lady of the Shi family is not valued. This is something all the servants of the Shi family know. As the saying goes, the master's preferences are the servants' weather vane. Naturally, an unfavored young lady will not attract their attention.

Moreover, the original owner lived a secluded life and rarely went out. Even when she came out, she usually kept her head down. Many servants actually didn't remember what she looked like, and this coachman was one of them.

So when he saw An An wearing Fu Xin's clothes, he subconsciously thought she was a maid. After all, the maids' clothes were all of the same style, with only some level distinctions in color.

Shi Anan walked beside the carriage. After the carriage moved for a while, she looked at Fu Xin, who had lifted the curtain and was looking at her worriedly. She gave her a reassuring look, then slowed down her pace and gradually fell behind the carriage.

Watching the carriage go away, Shi Anan first spent 50 cents to rent an empty utility room in the inn. Originally, the owner was unwilling to rent this room, and it would be troublesome for him if it got dirty.

Shi Anan persuaded the boss by promising that she would not make the place dirty, and that she would only rent it for one night and would restore the things to their original condition before leaving. Only then did the boss agree, thinking that any money earned was good money earned.

After securing the venue, Shi Anan finally felt at ease to go shopping.

First, I went to the butcher shop and bought all the meat I could from the boss, including pork, chicken, duck and mutton.

Then I went to a vegetable stall and bought some vegetables available in this season. The weather in February was too cold, and there were not many kinds of vegetables available in ancient times, just some cabbage, greens, cabbage, beans, white radish, etc., but something was better than nothing.

Finally, I went to purchase eggs, including chicken eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs.

As for fruits, she also picked and chose and bought some pears, apples, citrus fruits and the like. This was mainly because these fruits had not been improved in ancient times, so the yield was not high. On the other hand, the quality was uneven, and too many of them were sour and astringent.

Finally, she spent some money to buy some steamed buns, meat pies and pastries, and also went to a restaurant to order a table of dishes. After all, she had become a wealthy woman since she raided the Weiguo Mansion.

This is just a small amount of money, just spend it sparingly.

Steamed lamb, steamed bear paw, steamed deer tail, roast duck, roast chicken, roast goose, braised salt duck, sauce chicken, bacon...

Order a few servings of whatever the restaurant has.

The shopkeeper was so surprised that he came to check which big customer had come, but he only saw a little girl named Shi Anan.

“Um, girl, our dishes are not cheap. You ordered so much…” The shopkeeper originally wanted to ask, “Can you afford it?”

But before he could finish, Shi Anan placed a gold ingot on the table, and the shopkeeper tactfully changed his words: "You ordered so much, I'm afraid you won't be able to finish it and it will be wasted, hehe."

"Just go ahead and serve. I'll pack up the dishes and take them away. You don't need to give me the change. Hurry up, I need it urgently!" After Shi Anan said this, the shopkeeper went to the kitchen to give instructions. The entire kitchen was busy because of Shi Anan, a big customer.

After buying, Shi Anan went to the rented utility room to wait for the goods to be received. As for other daily necessities, she also collected a lot from the warehouse of the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion last time, which was enough for them to use, so she did not purchase any more this time.

Since Shi Anan bought a large quantity, the bosses all said they could deliver the goods to her before 3 p.m.

They were all in stock, and the bosses delivered them quite quickly. Soon the utility room of the inn was filled with supplies, causing the boss to come over and take a look out of concern.

When Anan explained that these things would be disposed of before tonight, the boss left doubtfully. Why would such a little girl buy so many things?

Shi Anan didn’t have time to care what her boss thought. Anyway, her boss would feel strange after she left and wouldn’t be able to find her.

She first took out the oilcloth that had been packed before, then sorted these things out, packed them up, and put them back into one of the empty spaces in the backpack.

In fact, the compartment where she puts clothes is not full yet, as they are all filled with oilcloth bags, so she can choose to continue stacking them.

But she was afraid of mixing up the food with her clothes, and since there was still some space in her bag, she decided to leave it that way for the time being.

When Shi Anan finished packing, it was not long before the time she and Fuxin had agreed to meet. Fortunately, this place was not too far from Shi Mansion, so she hurried back to the mansion.

When the boss came to check his utility room again, he found that it had completely returned to its original state. The boss felt strange and called the waiter to ask, "Where is the girl just now? Did anyone come in to move things just now?"

The waiter had been guarding the door and did see Shi Anan walk out, but he did not see anyone else coming in to move the goods.

When the boss heard this, he immediately muttered to himself: "This is really strange, could it be that I really met a god?"

Unfortunately, no one could answer his questions.
