Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies

Chapter 88: Making Wontons (1)



Without waiting for Long Yu to answer, Yao Ran returned to her bedroom. She put away the chocolates and took the money she found from the wealthy CEO's safe. She put the money into a backpack and carried it out.

Seeing her coming back with a backpack, Long Yu glanced at her curiously but didn't ask any questions.

"Let's go and find the others."

Yao Ran locked the door, and the two went to find Shi Xuan and the others.

After everyone gathered in the living room of unit 2001, Yao Ran put the backpack on the low table and said, "I found this when we went to the office building last time. I just finished sorting out the supplies today, and I think that you guys need to know about this."

She then opened the backpack in front of everyone. When the others saw it filled with money, their eyes widened in surprise.

Huang Qian had never seen so much money in his life and asked, "How much money is inside this backpack?"

Shi Xuan and Jia Xiang counted the money and said in shock, "Two million yuan. There's so much money."

If it was before the natural disasters, they could even buy a small house in the suburbs with the money. But now, it is hard to say how much supplies this money can buy.

Huang Zhihui sighed and said pitifully, "We have money, but we can't buy anything."

They just went to the department store today and found that the price of rice has risen to 500 yuan per kilogram, and each person is limited to one kilogram per day. The rice sold is not of high quality but is salvaged out of the water and dried in the sun before being sold to the public.

Because of the dirty water, the government cannot guarantee that people won't get sick after eating the rice. It's edible, but there is no guarantee that eating it won't kill you.

Thinking of this, everyone's expressions turned gloomy. There's no way they could spend all of this money now. They can only watch as this money becomes moldy and loses value.

Deng Qiqi was silent for a moment and said, "Let's go out and buy something with this money."

Huang Zhihui sighed, "We can't buy anything. Although there are purchase restrictions, the government distributes very few supplies every day. Many people queue for days and still can't buy anything."

Shi Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Besides the government, there are people selling food and supplies. These supplies are also salvaged from the water, and the price of rice is four times higher than the official price. If we really want to spend this money, we can try to buy food from these suppliers."

When Huang Qian heard this, he took a deep breath and complained. "Why don't they rob people? What kind of rice sells for 2,000 yuan per kilogram?"

Jia Xiang glanced at him and said, "It's good to be able to buy food. Now, many people can't even afford to eat once a day."

Hearing this, Huang Qian shut up and could only sigh secretly. Life is too difficult!

Seeing that Yao Ran didn't speak, Shi Xuan asked, "Yao Ran, do you have any suggestions?" Yao Ran recalled the information she had heard in her previous life and calmly said, "The government is arresting illegal dealers, and those who are caught will have their money and supplies confiscated. We can give it a try, but we have no insider, and those illegal dealers will not do business with strangers without middlemen."

Hearing this, Jia Xiang frowned and said, "Money will become less valuable in the future. More and more transactions are now done through barter. In the near future, money will become useless. We need to find a way to spend them all tomorrow."

"If we can't buy food, how will we spend it?" Huang Qian asked.

Yao Ran looked at him and suggested, "We can buy other daily necessities. Winter is approaching, and the temperature is getting lower day by day. We still wear short sleeves right now but already need blankets to sleep at night."

"The rain shows no sign of stopping, and I don't know if it will snow, but we must make preparations in advance. If it rains heavily when winter comes, this winter may be different from the usual winter. We should prepare some winter clothes and fuel as much as possible."

The others fell into deep thought after listening to Yao Ran's words.

After a moment of silence, Shi Xuan said, "I agree with Yao Ran. Let's go to the department store tomorrow to buy something. As long as it can be used, we must buy it."

When they were discussing, Long Yu remained silent. Yao Ran, who was sitting next to him, felt a little uneasy when his deep eyes fell on her from time to time.

After the discussion, Yao Ran left with Long Yu. Before she could open her door, Long Yu suddenly asked, "Yao Ran, can you teach me how to make wontons?"

Yao Ran was so surprised by his words that she couldn't react for a moment. She thought he would ask her how she knew so much about the weather, but she never expected him to ask her to teach him how to make wontons.

Seeing that she was just staring at him, Long Yu lowered his eyes and asked with a hint of sadness in his voice, "You don't want to teach me?"

After hearing this question, Yao Ran came to her senses. She stared at him for a moment and then said, "It's a small matter. I can teach you if you want."

After receiving her answer, Long Yu raised his eyes and smiled at her, "Can you teach me now?"

"Now?"

Long Yu asked again, "You can't?"

Yao Ran was speechless when she saw this tall and handsome man staring at her like an abandoned puppy. She really couldn't keep up with his thoughts.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
