BXBX NOVEL Chapter 6
The workers were still working overtime.
At this rate, the new wall should be completely finished by tonight.
She pursed her lips in satisfaction.
Back at home, she took out a children\'s nutritional meal, a roast chicken, and a glass of milk from her system space, and began eating contentedly.
She couldn\'t help but marvel at how nice this system was, as it could organize various supplies by category.
Everything was neat and orderly, not looking cluttered at all.
After dinner, she lay on the couch to rest while ordering supplies online.
A year after the apocalypse, just as humans were beginning to recover slightly from the terror of zombies, extreme cold weather appeared.
Heavy snow fell continuously for three months, and the entire world entered an ice age.
Temperatures dropped directly to negative 70-80 degrees Celsius and kept getting colder.
Countless people froze to death.
After the ice and snow melted, people thought they had made it through, but then extreme heat appeared.
Many who survived the extreme cold would then innocently lose their lives in the scorching weather.
Considering all this, she ordered many items online: cold-weather clothing, thermal underwear, hand warmers, gloves, hats, scarves, heat packs, electric heaters, and more.
To receive the goods as quickly as possible, she chose local shops and used express delivery. The items should arrive by tomorrow afternoon at the latest.
She also looked at generators online.
But the power outputs were all relatively small, which didn\'t satisfy her, so she thought about checking physical stores later.
When the global power outage happens, all electrical equipment will become unusable.
As long as she has generators, whether it\'s extreme heat or extreme cold, having several air conditioners should suffice.
She worried that if the power output was too small, they might break down after a short time.
After placing her orders, she began training.
Her current physical condition was too poor and needed strengthening.
Recalling the methods Big Brother taught her in her previous life, Yun Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and practiced until 11 PM.
Only then did she shower, drink milk, and go to bed.
The next morning.
She woke up early and went to the warehouse.
Today was the day to receive goods.
However, she didn\'t show herself, instead letting the delivery people unload the goods and leave.
She transferred the final payment to them via bank transfer.
If they saw that she was a child, it might lead to unwanted complications.
As soon as the delivery people left, she went to store the supplies in her space.
Then, she waited for the next wave of deliveries.
While waiting, she ordered another batch of ready-to-eat food online.
She was still too young to cook, so eating prepared food was more convenient.
Large trucks came and went continuously.
It wasn\'t until after 5 PM that all the supplies were finally delivered.
Now, there were only three days left until the apocalypse would break out.
Yun Xiaoxiao didn\'t dare waste a single minute.
She immediately took a taxi to the city center.
Once the apocalypse hit, many people would turn into man-eating monsters, undying and incredibly strong.
Her small frame wouldn\'t even be enough to fill their teeth.
Of course, besides these terrifying zombies, humans who had lost their humanity were also a huge danger.
Sometimes, they could be even more terrifying than zombies.
This had to be guarded against!
"I want to buy guns."
Yun Xiaoxiao walked into a tobacco and liquor store.
The clerk was a Crewcut Boy, who was playing a game with his feet propped up.
He glanced at Yun Xiaoxiao, then looked behind her. Seeing no adults, he dismissively jerked his chin.
"Kid, you\'ve come to the wrong place. We don\'t sell toy guns here."
"Damn it! Which bastard stole my kill?!"
He jumped up from his seat in anger.
Seeing that Yun Xiaoxiao still hadn\'t left, he impatiently tried to shoo her away.
"Little brat, why haven\'t you left yet?"
Yun Xiaoxiao remained calm, pointing steadily at the back of the inner wall.
"I want to buy what\'s inside there."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Crewcut Boy immediately put down his phone and stared at Yun Xiaoxiao warily.
"Kid, who exactly are you?"
"I\'m not a kid, I\'m already twenty years old."
Yun Xiaoxiao lied without batting an eye.
She had no choice; unlike other places, she couldn\'t order by phone here.
This was her only option.
The Crewcut Boy frowned in confusion, "You\'re twenty years old?"
"Believe it or not, I only have one purpose for coming here today: to buy real guns and bullets."
She deliberately emphasized the word \'real\'.
The Crewcut Boy raised an eyebrow.
Could she really be an adult? A dwarf?
Generally, only people introduced by acquaintances knew he had real goods inside.
His expression became more serious.
"How many do you want?"
"Three Ruger Mark II pistols, three P229 pistols, five Vector submachine guns, two AS50 sniper rifles, 10,000 rounds for the handguns, 10,000 rounds for the submachine guns, 3,000 rounds for the sniper rifles, and all guns should be fitted with silencers."
She chose handguns with relatively low recoil, mainly because she was afraid her small body couldn\'t handle it.
The submachine guns and sniper rifles were prepared for Big Brother.
After Yun Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the boy\'s eyes narrowed.
"Little girl, you\'ve got quite an appetite. Do you have that much money?"
"Money is not a problem."
Yun Xiaoxiao acted as if she had deep pockets.
"What are you buying so many guns and ammunition for?" he asked suspiciously.
"That\'s none of your business. Just rest assured that no one will know they were bought from you."
"...Then pay a 100,000 deposit first."
"Alright."
Yun Xiaoxiao wasn\'t worried about him cheating her out of money.
In her previous life, Big Brother had said that this store was very upright and never engaged in dishonest practices.
Seeing that Yun Xiaoxiao transferred the money without hesitation, the young man frowned.
"I don\'t have the goods on hand. Tomorrow at noon, we\'ll exchange money for goods."
"Okay."
The next day at noon, the other party fulfilled the agreement and handed over the guns and bullets to her.
She checked the goods; they were all genuine.
Once she paid, she only had a little over 2 million left on her.
"Do you need help? This is quite heavy." the young man asked.
Yun Xiaoxiao pointed to a small cart parked at the entrance.
"Just put them on there."
"You came well-prepared." The Crewcut Boy chuckled lightly, "But you really don\'t look like you\'re twenty."
Even for a dwarf, she looked too young.
Yun Xiaoxiao just smiled without explaining, and left pulling the small cart.
Only when she reached a corner where no one was around did she wave her hand, storing both the cart and goods into her space.
Yun Xiaoxiao was about to leave when she noticed a cake shop across the street.
Her eyes flickered slightly, and then she walked over.
"Little one, would you like to buy a cake?"
The young, pretty shop assistant smiled at her.
Yun Xiaoxiao also smiled sweetly, "Pretty Sister, I\'d like to order some cakes."
"Sure, let\'s choose the styles first."
The assistant handed over a catalog with various cake designs.
Yun Xiaoxiao pushed it back, shaking her head.
"Pretty Sister, please choose for me, from age five to eighty."
The shop assistant\'s mouth fell open in surprise, "Little one, you\'re not joking, are you?"
Who would make so many cakes at once?
Besides, cakes don\'t have such a long shelf life.
"I\'m serious. I can pay you part of the deposit first, but I require all the cakes to be made within these two days. I\'ll come to pick them up every other day."
Yun Xiaoxiao\'s expression was very serious.
All along, she had envied others who had parents to celebrate their birthdays with them and eat cake together.
Since others couldn\'t fulfill this for her, she decided to fulfill it herself.
The shop assistant was stunned for a good while, only snapping out of it when she heard the sound of payment being received.
This little one really wanted to make so many cakes at once!
"Pretty Sister, I\'ll be going now. I\'ll come back later to pick up the first batch."
Yun Xiaoxiao waved her little hand and walked out of the shop.
After leaving the cake shop, she strolled along the street.
As she walked, she made note of the locations of various stores.
Although she had stockpiled most things, who would complain about having too much?
Moreover, she still hadn\'t bought any medicines or petroleum, which were strictly controlled by the state.
She knew some black markets had stock, but she lacked the connections and channels.
These would have to wait until after the zombie virus outbreak for a "zero-yuan purchase".
So while walking around, she paid special attention to the locations of pharmacies and gas stations.
