Chapter 6

Upon returning home, Yun Xiaoxiao first glanced at the progress of the renovation on the neighboring villa.

The original outer wall had been completely demolished, and granite was being stacked up.

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.

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.
