Chapter 24: An Expected Surprise
Opening her eyes, Yao Ran found herself sitting on the ground covered with soft grass. In front of her was the house she had just seen in her space. Yao Ran looked down and saw that she was still holding a half-eaten fried dough stick in her left hand.
"This- I'm in my space?!"
When Yao Ran realized where she was, her heart beat fast. She was so excited that she quickly stood up and ran around the space, looking at everything in amazement. After inspecting the space, she walked back to the house.
After calming down, Yao Ran walked into the house. It had no front door and no furniture. She looked up and saw a bright light coming from the lamps on the ceiling.
The living room area is about 100 square meters, the floor height is about 4 meters, and there is a large balcony outside the large floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
In addition to the living room, there is a bathroom. It is about thirty meters square and has a bathtub, shower area, and toilet. She turned on the faucet, and clean water came out.
After checking the house, Yao Ran noticed a timer suspended in the air in the living room.
11 hours, 27 minutes and 40 seconds.
Seeing that the seconds on the timer were counting down, Yao Ran thought for a while and muttered, "Could it be that I can only stay here if there is still time remaining?"
In order to verify her guess, Yao Ran decided to leave the space. When she returned to the living room, she looked into the space and saw that the timer had stopped.
Since she guessed correctly, Yao Ran smiled, "This is really an unexpected surprise! With this space, I should be able to survive those disasters in the future."
Thinking of this, Yao Ran continued to organize supplies with her consciousness. After she was done, she frowned in confusion.
As she drove out of the underground parking lot, she saw a bicycle store across the street. Thinking about the terrible road conditions at the end of the world, she headed toward the bicycle store.
After looking around the store, she decided to buy 30 mountain bikes, 10 tricycles, 20 electric bicycles, and enough spare parts to last her for a lifetime.
Unlike Haicheng City, Juncheng City's economy is based on industry and manufacturing. Compared to other cities in the country, there are many factories in Juncheng City.
After checking the list, Yao Ran remembered that she had forgotten to buy a few things in Haicheng City, so she decided to buy them here.
She drove the small truck to the largest outdoor supply store. Before long, she walked into the store and approached the counter.
The staff behind the counter smiled and asked, "Welcome, Miss. How can I help you?"
Yao Ran looked around the shelves for a moment and replied, "I want to buy earthquake and fire emergency kits, tents, fire axes, climbing ropes, telescopes, radios, large-capacity solar batteries, and large-capacity solar chargers."
The man nodded, "How much do you want?"
She thought for a while and replied, "Give me twenty for each item, 200 large-capacity solar batteries, and 50 large-capacity solar chargers."
When the man heard her words, he was stunned for a moment and then broke out into a bright smile.
He walked out of the counter and said, "Miss, you must like outdoor activities very much. We have many things that are very useful when you go camping or hiking."
As he spoke, he took Yao Ran around the store and enthusiastically recommended assault jackets, sleeping bags, coal stoves, kerosene lamps, etc.
Yao Ran followed the man and asked, "Do you have anything that can withstand the cold of 70 or 80 degrees Celcius below zero?"
