Chapter 9
Backup Seeds
During the following month, Du Yue did nothing but stock up on supplies according to her plan. She drove her vehicle around the province and bought all of the necessities she could think of.
She even went to the gas stations on the road to fill up her gas tank. After that, she drove off to an undisclosed location where there were no surveillance cameras. There, she would draw out the gasoline and transfer it into the oil drums she had prepared.
Although this method was troublesome and time-consuming, no one would suspect it.
After a whole month, Du Yue had saved up a few tons of diesel and gasoline. Although it was not a lot, it was enough for Du Yue’s own use.
She kept herself busy for a month, so whenever Du Yue returned to her house and lay on her warm little bed, she felt that such comfortable days were very precious.
Although she was physically tired, she was satisfied. Every time she saw the resources and supplies stored in her storage space increasing, her heart relaxed a little more.
Du Yue took out her tablet and started checking if she had missed out on anything. The apocalypse would arrive in less than a month, so she had to be very careful and serious about her preparations.
After this inspection, Du Yue realized that she had missed out on many things that she had not prepared.
Generators, solar-powered batteries, solar-powered lamps, solar-powered power banks, flashlights, batteries, fans, air conditioners, heaters, hot water bags, heating pads, and a number of other things.
There was another very important thing, which was seeds.
After the apocalypse arrived, the change in the world’s climate became extreme. No crops could grow in the outdoor environment, and there was no way to sow or harvest. As a result, natural resources became scarce, and it became more difficult for people to survive..
Although Du Yue did not know much about agriculture, it was better to be safe than sorry. She had to store more seeds now in case they became useful in the future.
Du Yue found a seed supplier and purchased a lot of seeds in large quantities. She also bought a lot of seeds from farmers in various rural villages.
Looking at the farmers working in the fields, sweating, but full of hope, Du Yue could not bear to see them suffer, so she reminded them indirectly.
“My friend at the weather bureau said that we’ll have a long period of hot summer weather soon. You should try to buy some supplies that can be preserved, just in case.”
It was just a simple reminder, so she did not have to worry about being discovered. Moreover, she might never see this group of farmers again in the future.
Moreover, she had deliberately worn a large-brimmed hat and put on a mask. It was unlikely that anyone would remember her face.
After buying the seeds, Du Yue went to buy fuel.
The first thing she had to buy was coal. Du Yue bought 20 tons of it and ordered 1,000 gas cans from the gas factory. She also bought 500 boxes of portable gas cans.
Du Yue even bought ten diesel-fueled ATVs and ten bicycles. She also bought the corresponding spare parts for these vehicles.
When the apocalypse arrived, almost everyone had to travel on foot. At that time, it would be very enviable to have an ATV or bicycles.
During her days of traveling around the province, Du Yue would also look for all sorts of delicacies whenever she had free time.
In her storage space, there were twenty shelves full of cooked meals.
In order to make full use of the storage space, Du Yue bought many large boxes and placed them at the top of the shelves.
At first glance, the shelves were full of food, but they were arranged in an orderly manner. Not a single space was wasted.
There were still a dozen empty shelves in the interspace. Du Yue planned to buy some frozen dumplings, wontons, mantous, scallion pancakes, and other noodles to put in them.
Du Yue did not plan to go out again after she had bought most of her supplies. She planned to cook at home whenever she was free in the future.
She planned to make enough food for a few meals each time, and then store them in the disposable lunch boxes before putting them away into the storage spaces. In the future, when she could not cook, she could still eat these home-cooked meals. Th.ê most uptod/at𝓮 n𝒐vels a/re published on n(0)velbj)n(.)c/o/m
In the blink of an eye, two and a half months had passed. Du Yue had been busy every day, leaving early and returning late. She had almost forgotten the passage of time.
