“Right now, the zombies they are facing are all ordinary zombies. You could kill them all with something as simple as a shovel or a butcher’s knife. As long as you cut off a zombie’s head, it will lose its ability to move, which is basically the same as killing it. So whenever we see zombies, their heads are our targets.”
Although Lu Yan found her daughter’s words cruel and harsh, she firmly committed them to memory.
If Lu Yan had not reminded her just now, perhaps when she encountered zombies, she would have reacted just like the women in the movie and screamed at the top of her lungs.
Therefore, in order to protect her daughter in the future and avoid becoming a burden to her, she had to start exercising properly. At the very least, being strong enough to pick up a shovel and kill a few ordinary zombies would be a good thing.
“Alright, Mommy remembers. If you’re sleepy, you can go to sleep first. Tomorrow morning, we can have your father and your brothers soak in the spiritual spring water.”
The moment Lu Yan finished speaking, the voices of Lu Zhengyang and her second brother, Lu Jiang, came from outside the door.
“Everyone has been exhausted today, so go back to your rooms and get some sleep. If there’s anything else, we’ll discuss it tomorrow morning. For the next few days, let’s have a short meeting in the audiovisual room every morning so we can keep track of everyone’s work.”
“Dad and Second Brother are back.”
As she spoke, Lu Yan jumped off the bed and opened the door, only to see her grandfather, fourth brother, fifth brother, Jin Huai, and the others all returning.
“Yan Bao? You’re still awake?”
The moment Lu Xi saw Lu Yan, he picked up the little darling and carried her in his arms.
Lu Yan felt a little embarrassed, but she still gave him a faint smile and answered in her warm, adorable voice, “You all hadn’t come back yet, so I couldn’t fall asleep. I stayed with Mommy and watched a movie for a while. Fifth Brother, put me down quickly. I’m going to prepare a bath for Dad. Dad has worked hard all day, so he should have a nice hot bath to relax.”
Hearing this, Lu Xi pretended to be jealous. “Hah, Yan Bao only has Dad in her heart and doesn’t care about Fifth Brother anymore. You’ll only prepare bathwater for Dad, but not for Fifth Brother.”
Yan Bao replied playfully, “Of course I will. I’ll prepare some for everyone. I’ll do Dad’s first, then I’ll prepare yours afterward. You have to wait for me.”
With that, Yan Bao ran back to Lu Zhengyang’s room and filled an entire bathtub with spiritual spring water for him.
Afterward, she prepared spiritual spring water for her grandfather, Jin Huai, her second brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother as well.
Of course, to prevent what had happened to Lu Yan’s mother earlier from happening again, Lu Yan briefly explained the effects of the spiritual spring water to everyone.
From now on, she would prepare spiritual spring water for everyone to bathe in every day. As long as they kept it up, she believed they would eventually experience remarkable changes.
She would also prepare drinking water for everyone and store it in the space, so they could take it out whenever they wanted to drink.
Using it both internally and externally would provide a double benefit.
After soaking in the spiritual spring water, everyone’s fatigue from the day disappeared, and as they listened to the novel, they gradually drifted off to sleep.
Early the next morning, everyone gathered in the audiovisual room as planned for a short meeting to discuss what they had accomplished the previous day.
Fourth brother, Lu Xiao, had already contacted several friends and placed orders for batches of disaster prevention supplies. Once the funds were available, he would go to his friends to collect them.
Jin Huai had also contacted several pharmaceutical companies. Likewise, once the funds were available, he would go over to sign the contracts. After paying the deposits, the companies would begin arranging deliveries, while anything requiring urgent production would be rushed into production as well.
As for the weapons and supplies, Lu Xi was still making arrangements. Since they needed such a large quantity of weapons, he had to be especially careful and discreet.
As for everyone’s stocks and funds, they had already liquidated part of what needed to be transferred the previous day.
At present, more than two billion yuan had already been recovered. Taking advantage of the morning meeting, everyone distributed the funds appropriately, and after the meeting, they went back to their respective tasks.
Lu Yan, Lu Yan’s mother, and Gu Tianqi continued wandering through the streets and alleys, eating and drinking their way through the city while placing orders for all kinds of freshly prepared food.
Of course, they were not solely focused on ordering food.
Whenever they came across supplies they needed while traveling, they would buy another batch and store it in the space.
With ten or twenty billion yuan at their disposal, they had to spend it as freely as possible.
In the afternoon, they began picking up the food they had ordered.
To make collecting everything easier, they drove a small to medium sized cargo truck that day.
Lu Yan and the others had already made their plans. They would place their orders in the morning and pick everything up in the afternoon, allowing them to move on to another area the following day.
Once the warehouses rented by Jin Huai and Lu Zhengyang were ready, Lu Yan also made use of food delivery services.
Every restaurant with good reviews received an order from them.
Breakfast, Chinese food, dinner, late night snacks, as long as the reviews were good, they ordered everything. Even roasted meat, Black Duck, and Jue Duck were not overlooked.
All the food deliveries were sent directly to the warehouse address. Once the food arrived at the warehouse, it was immediately collected into the warehouse within the space for storage.
In short, they bought, ate, and stockpiled nonstop, while their money flowed away like a rushing river.
Lu Yan’s plan was to finish stockpiling everything in their current city before moving on to other places. With two months available, they would stockpile as much as possible and gather delicacies from as many different places as they could.
At the same time, they could investigate the conditions in different areas. Who knew, perhaps they would have opportunities to return later and carry out some zero-dollar purchases.
A few days later, apart from Lu Zhengyang’s shares in the group, which had not yet been successfully liquidated, everyone else had already converted all their stocks, funds, equity, and real estate that could be liquidated into cash.
The total came to nearly seven billion yuan.
And now, the real stockpiling is finally beginning.
What Lu Yan and her mother had been stockpiling could only be considered small-scale purchases. After all, no matter how much prepared food they bought, it was impossible to spend that much money.
The supplies her brothers were about to purchase, however, would be on an entirely different scale.
Several billion yuan disappeared just from purchasing medicines.
Another several billion went toward various disaster emergency supplies.
In addition, to make it easier to stockpile fuel and oil products, Lu Xiao directly acquired several small and medium sized fuel and oil companies, allowing them to accumulate an enormous supply of fuel and oil. That alone cost more than one billion yuan.
Some of the disaster prevention supplies could also be used in constructing their safe house. Part of them had already been handed over to Lu Zhengyang to install in their safe house.
At this point, none of them knew where Lu Zhengyang was building the safe house. All they knew was that he had mysteriously disappeared for two days in the middle of everything, making the whole thing seem incredibly secretive.
So far, merely purchasing the facilities and equipment for a single safe house has already cost several hundred million yuan.
As for the weapons, after Lu Xi finished handling everything domestically, he took two billion yuan and went abroad to make further arrangements.
At present, that two billion yuan had already been almost completely spent.
Nearly seven billion yuan had been spent within a single month, leaving almost nothing behind. And this was still considered conservative spending, since the things they were purchasing were far from ordinary.
However, after nearly seven billion yuan had been spent, the warehouse within the space was becoming increasingly well stocked.
Its area was also rapidly expanding as more and more supplies entered the space.
With all these supplies in hand, even if the disasters arrived ahead of schedule, they would have nothing to fear.
