The Beginning of Natural Disaster, I Won by Hoarding Tens of Billions of Supplies

Chapter 535: Supplies Passing Through the Clear Road

Gu Tinglin’s expression revealed no clues, “No.” 

Jiang Ning’s eyebrows relaxed, and she began to talk about her own affairs. “Both Russians and the Americans have built bases in the Arctic. They fight every now and then, and both sides suffer constant casualties. 

We drifted to the Arctic to settle down and accidentally saved a few injured Russians. Who would have thought that this would upset the Americans, and they would seek trouble everywhere and want to kill us. 

Later, by chance, we joined forces with the Russians to take down the U.S. base, earning us some supplies. We have lived quite well in the past few years. 

When the land rose again, we came out to find a new place to settle down. After encountering this continent, we went ashore several times but did not find a place suitable for living. Instead, we encountered many dangers. 

After a lot of stops and starts, we met some bounty hunters, who helped us find our way here. 

We have quite a lot of supplies, and we couldn’t carry them all to shore. So, we hid the submarine and fishing boats in a secret bay several hundred kilometers away. We need to go back and retrieve them as soon as possible.” 

Jiang Ning didn’t want to mention anything too close to the base in case of patrols. 

Although she knew she could hide her space, since they had decided to stay, they had to take the safer route.

It is true that Gu Tinglin wants to make up for the missing family affection, but he has always put the country before his family, and now he had a new family. 

He was someone worthy of admiration for his willingness to sacrifice his life for the country. 

But who could guarantee that one day he wouldn’t offer up his daughter for the country as well? 

Jiang Ning wouldn’t make an impulsive decision just because they had spent a short time together. 

Gu Tinglin couldn’t hide his happiness. She was willing to share her past with him and had decided to stay in Fengcheng. “Do you need me to send someone to protect you?” 

“No, we will go and come back quickly, but…” 

Jiang Ning hesitated for a second and asked, “We got a lot of medicines and weapons. Is it suitable to bring them back?” 

The medicines are definitely fine, but the weapons are confiscated as a strict requirement of the base. This is done for the safety of the base. 

However, this applied to ordinary survivors. There were always exceptions. 

Gu Tinglin didn’t know how many weapons she had, so he said after a little consideration: “We can issue a gun certificate, but the number of weapons cannot exceed 6, and the number of bullets cannot exceed 100. You’ll also need to register the specific models with the military.” 

Jiang Ning understood that this was his biggest compromise. “Okay.” 

They had gathered a lot of medicine from the United Base, and the three of them could not use them all in more than ten lifetimes, but they were urgently needed for the base. “We’ve received a lot of medicine. Can we exchange it with the base?” 

After more than ten years of natural disasters, the thing that they lack the most is medicine. 

For minor illnesses, people had to endure; for serious ones, they simply waited for death. Not just ordinary survivors, but even soldiers had sacrificed a lot. 

“It can be exchanged, but the hospital will give a plan on how to exchange it. What do you want?” 

“I want a red brick house with an area of no less than 100 square meters and a wall of no less than 2 meters. If there is more, I also want to buy land for planting.” 

Gu Tinglin didn’t expect that she not only had high requirements but also thought long-term. She was clearly not the type to settle for less. “Alright, I’ll arrange it.” 

The conversation was almost over, and Shu Xueqing had already prepared dinner. 

Seeing his relaxed brows and a smile on his lips, Shu Xueqing knew that Jiang Ning was willing to stay. 

As far as she could remember, he hadn’t smiled like this in many years. He wore a serious face every day, like a machine that never needed a break, which had ruined his body. 

It was rare for him to get off work early, and it was thanks to Jiang Ning. 

The two decided to leave tomorrow and go back to the house to rest after dinner. 

They didn’t want to expose the ruthless couple and make others hate them, but they were also worried about leaving them alone.

Knowing that his brother and sister-in-law were just going through the motion, Doudou took the initiative to take on the task, “I’ll stay and take care of them.” 

Jiang Ning left dog food, dried meat, and some light-tasting long-lasting food and did not forget to give her a gun to protect herself. 

The next day, Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen got up early after hearing the movement on the other side. 

After breakfast, they took their backpacks and headed out. 

Gu Tinglin reminded them, “Be careful.” 

After deciding to stay, Jiang Ning knew that she would have to rely on his strength in the future, so she tried to accept his concern.  

It felt strange in her heart, but she didn’t seem to reject it. 

Walking hurriedly along the road, she suddenly turned back and found that Gu Tinglin, who was about to be late for work, was still standing in the road. 

When he saw her turn around, he smiled and waved goodbye. 

Jiang Ning’s heart was filled with inexplicable emotions. 

Going back to the days when they had to rely on their legs for traveling was really inconvenient. Even though they were walking fast, it still took her two hours to reach the gate. 

The two took back the weapons they had left at the entrance and walked quickly along the coast under the watchful and suspicious gaze of the surrounding survivors who had their own ulterior motives.  

Once they reached a deserted area, Jiang Ning took out the rusty old bicycle and let Huo Yishen carry her as they made their way through the wasteland. 

With sunscreen clothing, sunscreen, and a sun hat, they were ready to go. 

It’s no wonder that Huo Yishen is so strong. He doesn’t seem to get tired, even after riding on the rough terrain for a long time. 

He also has a playful side. He always chooses the most difficult paths to take. 

Jiang Ning almost fell off, so she quickly grabbed his waist to steady herself and angrily punched him lightly. “You’re like a salted meat, why are you still so coquettish!” 

Huo Yishen saw that she was in a good mood, so he couldn’t help teasing her. 

Salted meat is still salted meat; it tastes even better. 

At noon, they found a hillside sheltered from the wind and sand. Jiang Ning took out a fruit platter and boxed lunch. “We’ve only traveled a few dozen kilometers. When will we enter the sea?” 

“Let’s wait until evening and find a deeper bay.” 

They discussed their plans while eating, deciding which supplies to take.  

They are used to enjoying the space. Even if they settle down in the base, they can’t live too badly. All kinds of daily necessities must be prepared. 

Fortunately, with Americans acting as a big fool, taking out luxury goods didn’t seem too out of place. 

With Gu Tinglin as a shield, even if people at the base were jealous, they probably wouldn’t dare cause trouble. 

After eating, they continued on their way and finally found a suitable bay by evening. 

As night fell, they changed into diving suits and swam to a sufficiently deep area. Then they entered the space, drove the submarine out and hovered after sailing more than ten nautical miles. 

They began to prepare supplies for their new home.  

The conditions at the base were tough, so things like flushing toilets were out of the question. 

They would have to make do with a dry toilet, the kind that needed composting. 

The smell and the scene almost made Jiang Ning almost vomit. 

No, that’s not possible. There’s a 10,000-dollar biodegradable toilet, and she heard that the water after biodegradation even meets drinking water hygiene standards. Otherwise, how could it be sold for that price? 

With Gu Tinglin’s protection, it seemed unreasonable not to get him one. 

So Jiang Ning took out two. 

Coffee beans, coffee cups, coffee pots, a complete set. 

Various canned foods, sugar, cigars, wine, large hams, sealed rice flour, oats, nuts, American ginseng.

Six submachine guns and 100 rounds of ammunition. 

Military tents, fabrics, clothes, shoes, and so on. 

Medicines include anti-inflammatory and fever-reducing, hemostatic and analgesic, antibiotics, gauze, surgical instruments, iodine and alcohol.
