After Ye Xuan and Ling Jiaze bid farewell, the next morning, they left Australia City by plane with their property multiplied several times, and went straight to the neighboring provinces of City C.
He had no experience in purchasing before the apocalypse came, but after the apocalypse came, he probably knew where there were a lot of supplies and where he could find what he wanted. Now switch Thinking about the previous experience can be considered barely usable.
The province where city C is located is very small, and many things are shipped from the neighboring province. For convenience, Ye Xuan directly found a food agent in the neighboring province. Manufacturers place orders to earn some commission business, and they place orders on their behalf, which can be regarded as saving the trouble of running around.
Ye Xuan read to the list on his mobile phone memo: "Compressed biscuits, chocolate, instant noodles, canned food, I have to place orders for such things that are most convenient to eat when hungry, grain, oil, vegetables and fruits, meat, eggs, fish, aquatic products Dry goods and seasonings are also needed, please, if you can help me order snacks that are common in supermarkets, that would be even better."
After listening to what he said, Manager Song thought for a while and said: "I have all the things you mentioned here. I will bring you the supply lists and price lists of several companies. You can check them and see how much you want." You fill it out directly, and then I will ask them to place an order, do you think this will work?"
"OK."
Soon Manager Song came over with a large stack of documents. He put the box full of folders on the ground, took out a folder and said, "We come in the same way. Let's look at the rice noodles first. This is our The origin, variety, and price of the rice that can be ordered here are all marked, if you are interested, I also have a sample library here, I can take you there to have a look."
Before the apocalypse, you can pick any kind of rice to buy in the supermarket. After the apocalypse, you can buy rice. Ye Xuan: ... What are these things
He bit the bullet and flipped through a few pages, only to feel that the rice on each page looked about the same, and he couldn't tell the difference at all. I have eaten rice that is more satisfactory, and then correspond to the information on the picture one by one.
Seeing his inexperienced appearance, Manager Song said, "This is your first time purchasing?" Which company is so stupid, looking for a pure newcomer to purchase
Ye Xuan explained according to the rhetoric he made up: "Well, I want to open an online store, a small business."
Manager Song: You really don't look like you're going to do business.
The visitor was a customer, and Manager Song didn't mean to push him away when Ye Xuan delivered it to his door. He just said a few more words when he showed him the options later, telling him which ones are common in supermarkets and relatively It's easy to sell, lest this newcomer hit a wall too badly.
Under Ye Xuan's purchase method, which seemed to be almost ready to place an order, he quickly marked all the things he wanted to buy, and because food dealers have more order options, he also added some items that he hadn't thought of. It can be said that the task has been overfulfilled.
Of course, his wallet has also shrunk a lot.
The more Manager Song looked at it, the more he felt that Ye Xuan didn't seem to be in business. He basically bought rice, noodles, grains and oils that were common in supermarkets. Vegetables and fruits seemed to come from his own will. As for biscuits and chocolates. He even marked a large number of such things, and the price and whether it was easy to sell were completely out of his consideration, as if he bought these things just to complete the task.
The most important thing is that he also bought many unsustainable things in piles, as if he had never considered the shelf life of things.
He tentatively said: "Your order is a bit too big, it may take me a while to place all the orders for delivery."
"How soon?"
Manager Song said rather embarrassingly: "One week at the earliest, two weeks at the latest, the main reason is that it takes a certain amount of time for the merchant to deliver the goods to me, and then I have to send them to you. It’s a bit slow to go through the procedure. Coupled with the large amount of vegetables and fruits you want, they all need to be delivered after placing an order, which is even slower.”
This time was barely within Ye Xuan's acceptable range, but he was not sure that everything in this life was going in the same direction as his previous life, so he hesitated for a long time and said: "Well, you place an order for me first, and when the goods arrive, you can buy them first." What kind of things to send, I will pay you the excess transportation costs."
"Okay, then you give me an address, and then pay a deposit?"
"Well, I'll write you the address." Ye Xuan's family has a small warehouse on the outskirts of City C. After the last tenant left, he hadn't had time to find another tenant, and now he can just use it. After writing the address, he swiped the card quite neatly, and soon his mobile phone received a payment prompt, and the transaction was considered partially completed.
Seeing that he paid the bill so happily, Manager Song temporarily let go of his doubts. It doesn't matter whether this kid is opening an online store or trying to do something with these things, anyway, if he does this business smoothly, he will make money.

After Ye Xuan and Manager Song finalized the order, they didn't go back to City C immediately, but went to another daily necessities agent's shop. The purchase of daily necessities was included in his plan, but he originally planned to find a few more stores directly from the Internet, and hoarding some of them would be enough. But after doing business with Manager Song, Ye Xuan realized that finding an agent for wholesale is cheaper than buying by himself, so he simply found a reliable agent on the Internet and placed an order.
Toilet paper, toilet paper, soap, shower gel, shampoo, laundry detergent...
Daily necessities are much faster to buy than food. Ye Xuan first placed an order according to the brand he currently uses at home. After buying enough for him to use for a lifetime, he then bought some cheap and large quantities according to his balance. Discontinued daily necessities, anyway, these things can be traded with others in the future, and they will not lose money.
After he paid the deposit, he made an agreement with the agent to deliver the goods in three days. Most of the daily necessities are in stock, so there is no need to wait like food, and it only takes time for delivery on the road, which can be regarded as a staggered time.
So far, Ye Xuan has completed more than half of the task of collecting supplies, and he plans to place an order for the remaining bits and pieces online, or buy them on the spot after finishing the renovation of the villa.

On the second day after returning to City C, Ye Xuan drove to the building materials market, preparing to start the renovation project of the villa.
He didn't intend to turn his home into a fortress. First, it would be too ostentatious, and it would easily cause unnecessary trouble. Second, he didn't plan to guard the villa for the rest of his life. When the situation stabilized, he planned to live in a safe place like his previous life. Zone, so as to prevent high-level zombies, animals and plants.
All he has to do is to simply strengthen the defense of his home, strengthen the doors and windows and heighten the outer walls. To put it bluntly, he wants to guard against humans in the last days.
Early zombies had no brains but only instincts, Ye Xuan was not particularly afraid of them, but humans...
Ye Xuan closed his eyes and recalled the behaviors that fell below the bottom line that he had seen in his previous life. Human beings who have lost the restraint of the law are the most dangerous existence that can do anything.
Ye Xuan wandered around the building materials market, found a shop with good quality materials and also packaged repairs, and placed an order with the shop at a price slightly higher than the market price, and made an appointment with them to come to measure tomorrow, and then start work immediately.
He has no other requirements, only two points - good quality and fast completion.
The boss who sells building materials is surnamed Zhang. He has been in this business for more than ten years. In the past few years, several residential areas with villas have been built around City C. He has also seen a lot of strange decoration requirements, like Ye Xuan Such high requirements for practicality and safety are not uncommon.
If you live in a villa, although there is security in the whole community, it will still make people feel unsafe without a unit door and the built-in anti-theft ability of high floors. I want to add something to the courtyard wall and gate, and I want to make the windows stronger. Isn't it normal to avoid being broken into by a window one day
However, there are still few people like Ye Xuan who suddenly renovate after living for several years. Boss Zhang has a good impression of Ye Xuan when he sees that Ye Xuan handles things simply and does not pick styles. What happened at the time, was it because the materials were not selected properly or something went wrong during installation, why did it take more than two years to reinstall?”
Ye Xuan half-truthfully said: "I was young and had a lot of things to do when I was graduating. I didn't have time to stare at everything. I made a rough decoration and moved in. During this time, I watched several times in a row. Only after hearing the news that someone broke into the villa did I feel that I should pay more attention to the decoration to avoid accidents."
"If you want to be safe, you have to hurry up. Safety is a big deal!" Boss Zhang sighed and was afraid that Ye Xuan would feel that Ye Xuan wasted money. They are all inexperienced in the first decoration, or they installed a bunch of useless things or dropped things and had to do the second decoration. It is not easy for young people like you to decorate by themselves.”
"Well, it's not too late to make up for it." Ye Xuan replied to the first half of Boss Zhang's sentence, but automatically ignored the second half.
His family's villa was actually mainly renovated by his mother at the time. Later, his parents passed away unexpectedly, and the renovation work was hastily ended. During that time, while he was busy with graduation, he was taking care of his parents' affairs, and because he had too many memories of the old house, he was easily touched by the scene, so he just bought a few pieces of furniture and moved. How could he carefully consider security issues
As far as the security situation of his villa is concerned, he can live safely for two years because of the serious and responsible security of the community, and thieves don't dare to provoke adult men like him.
