Oh right, there's medicine. It's the end of the world, especially in extreme cold, both adults and children are susceptible to illness. Fever reducers, anti-inflammatories, cold medicines, stomach medicines, headache medicines, cough medicines... Of the types I can think of and even haven't thought of, I go to the pharmacy and buy 100 boxes of each type to reserve. Truong Thanh returned and showed me the contract. He said tomorrow he would start going up the mountain to repair. On the mountain there is a shelter 1000 meters long and 600 meters wide, extremely suitable. He found a construction team from nearby city A. He heard that he had built prisons before, so the skills were definitely not a problem. Moreover, the distance is so far, even if we know this place exists, when the end of the world comes, we will not be able to get over it. I'll show you the list. He said that for now, just prepare accordingly, if there's anything missing, add it later, there's still time. Early the next morning, Truong Thanh went up the mountain to supervise the repairs. And I rented a large commercial vehicle to drive to city B. City B is where we live. Big cities are certainly more complete than towns, and if you buy in bulk, no one will notice. Everyone is busy with their work and life, basically no one cares what you do. Unlike some small districts, if you do something unusual, the whole town will know about it in less than a day. Don't ask me why I don't rent a truck. I can't drive. The commercial vehicle is already the largest I can drive. As soon as I got off the highway, I ran straight to the warehouse of the city's largest supermarket and gave the manager named Vuong, who was short and dark-skinned, a thick list in front of me.

“Please prepare enough goods according to this list for me as soon as possible.”

“Miss... what did you buy so much for?”

Manager Vuong widened his eyes and asked in surprise.

“Our company is preparing to donate supplies to a remote mountainous area where the elderly and children stay in the countryside.”

“Do you deliver to your door?”

“Yes, yes. You guys are so kind.”

He smiled flatteringly.

“I'll give you the address, just deliver it there.”

"Yes, yes. But with this much quantity, it will take at least the whole day to collect it all. At the latest, it will be delivered to you tomorrow afternoon. Please come over here to pay."

Look at the cashier Each item is entered into the system, compared for nearly an hour before the invoice is printed.

“Miss, a total of 328 thousand 569 yuan.”

I took the card Truong Thanh gave me and swiped the card. He gave me this card on the first day we lived together. He said: "God, I know your personality. But I am a man, I have my responsibilities and responsibilities. I have to give you enough sense of security." Actually, for a long time I didn't know how much money was in the card. One time I jokingly asked him. He just smiled and said: "With your frugal spending, it probably won't last for five lifetimes." Unexpectedly, the first time I used it was in this situation. Leaving the supermarket, I ran straight to the agricultural wholesale market. It's unknown how long the apocalypse will last. Without fresh vegetables, adults can endure it, but children cannot. Such a large shelter can completely open up a vegetable growing area. Just found out that my parents like gardening, so there is something to keep them busy. Seeds of all kinds of vegetables. Nutrient soil. Fertilizer.
