Chapter 26: Put On A Show
Yao Ran took the list and saw that there were more than two hundred varieties of military canned food alone. From meats to desserts, there's almost everything on the list. The canned food sold by the factory is packed in boxes, with 100 cans in a box.
They also offer four main types of military rations: fresh rations, precooked rations, MRES, and dehydrated meals.
These military rations are sold in boxes, with 24 packs in each box. Each pack contains three meals, two snacks, two packs of instant drinks, and two compressed biscuits and energy bars.
Yao Ran put down the list and said, "Sir, I want to order 50,000 boxes of each kind of canned food and 100,000 boxes of each type of military ration."
Seeing that they also sell compressed biscuits and energy bars special for the military, Yao Ran said, "I also want to buy 500,000 boxes of compressed biscuits and 500.000 boxes of energy bars."
After hearing what she said, the middle-aged man looked at her and said, "Miss, military rations are not cheap. Are you sure you want that much?"
Yao Ran actually wanted to buy more, but she was worried that the government would notice if she bought too much, which would cause her some trouble.
She thought for a while and asked, "Sir, can't I buy these foods?"
The middle-aged man chuckled when he heard her question, "Of course, you can buy it. But the price of military food is different from that of ordinary food."
"I have money. But, if I buy so much, won't the government arrest me?" She asked cautiously.
The middle-aged man shook his head, "They don't have that much time to care about my business."
Yao Ran's eyes lit up when she heard his answer. She smiled and said, "Then I want to double the amount of my order."
The moment her words fell, the middle-aged man was stunned.
Yao Ran saw him looking at her thoughtfully and smiled, "Sir, your factory is the largest manufacturer of military food in this country. Don't tell me you have that many in stock."
After hearing her words, the middle-aged man laughed. "We have more than that, but you might not be able to afford the total price." He said.
Yao Ran took out her black card and smiled, "Don't worry. I can afford it."
Seeing the black card, the middle-aged man laughed again. "I'm sorry that I look down on you. Since you have money, I will accept this business."
Yao Ran likes to talk to smart people. She asked, "Sir, how much can you sell me?"
The middle-aged man typed on his laptop for a few seconds, looked at the screen, and said, "It is not a problem to sell more to you."
Yao Ran's eyes flickered as she calmly said, "Then I want all your stock."
The middle-aged man glanced at her and nodded, "Sure. Please wait a moment while I check our inventory."
After making several calls, the middle-aged man said, "Our warehouse currently has 500,000 boxes of military canned food of each type, 300,000 boxes of military rations of each type, 6 million boxes of compressed biscuits, and 5 million boxes of energy bars."
He smiled and asked, "Miss, are you sure you want them all?"
Yao Ran heard the provocation in his voice and smiled back, "Of course. Please send them to this address."
After speaking, she wrote down the warehouse address and added, "I will pay half of the money as a deposit and then pay the rest after receiving the goods."
Seeing that she was serious, the middle-aged man quickly calculated the price and drafted a purchase contract.
Yao Ran signed the contract, paid a down payment of one billion, and said, "This is my phone number. Please call me when the goods are shipped."
The middle-aged man took the address and nodded, "Sure."
After spending more than 2 billion in half a day, Yao Ran drove to a bank. She still had more than 18 billion left, but she had bought everything on the list. She plans to exchange the money for gold bars before it loses its value.
After exchanging the gold bars and placing them in the space, Yao Ran withdrew the remaining money from her bank account.
According to her memories, electricity, gas, and water were cut off as the city flooded. Five days after the typhoon hit the country, electronic devices could not be used, and transactions could only be made in cash.
In the early stages of the end of the world, money still has value. However, as supply became scarce, prices continued to rise, and money slowly turned into waste paper.
Although she knew about all of these, Yao Ran still needed to prepare some cash so that she could blend in with the crowd and not attract unnecessary attention.
She withdrew the remaining money from her bank account, put it in her space, and left the bank. When she walked out of the door, it finally started to rain again. Yao Ran drove to the supermarket near the Ling Yuan apartment complex to buy some daily necessities and food.
A few people in the apartment complex saw her as she moved in yesterday. Since she had just moved in, she needed to put on a show for them and act as usual. Otherwise, once someone knows about her space, she might lose her life.
Yao Ran parked the small truck in the parking lot reserved for her apartment unit and took the elevator to the 20th floor, carrying several large plastic bags full of things. When the elevator stopped on the ground floor, several people walked into the elevator.
A middle-aged woman saw her and asked curiously, "Are you new here?"
Yao Ran looked at the middle-aged woman and nodded, "Yes."
The middle-aged woman glanced at the big plastic bags in her hand and asked, "Which floor do you live on?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn
