July 24, 2022, 120 days until the apocalypse,
Li Yu ran five kiloters back to his ho in the mountain forest and took a bath. His body, as it was before the apocalypse, couldn't tolerate his current weak physique.
Actually, Li Yu's physical fitness was quite good.
He was 183 cm tall, weighed 150 kg, and you could vaguely see his six-pack abs.
But from the standpoint of Li Yu, who had been reborn, it still seed rather weak, which prevented him from performing many complex movents.
Therefore, since his rebirth, he had been focusing on improving his physical fitness.
After bathing and eating breakfast, Li Yu went to the base to check on things.
Seeing the already built basent and house in front of him, Li Yu felt sowhat pleased.
The house was now at the decoration stage, and water and electricity had been installed.
Moreover, Li Yu had spent 3 million RMB to purchase photovoltaic solar panels from Zhongke Photovoltaic because he feared maintenance issues later, so he bought a few extra sets.
Also, he arranged for his younger brother Li Hang to learn throughout the installation process.
Although learning on the fly is definitely not enough, the lifespan of photovoltaic solar panels is up to 30 years, so the few sets he bought, if well maintained, could last a long ti.
After the photovoltaic power generation system was set up, according to the power generation capacity of this set of equipnt, it could generate nearly 100,000 kWh per year.
After the basic construction was completed,
There are so things that must be accelerated now.
Stock up on supplies!
Though Li Yu had already purchased so supplies online in the past two months according to the records in the manual he previously wrote, and bought so continuously.
But he didn't buy on a large scale, because there was nowhere to put them.
Previously, the underground storage had not been fully constructed and was unelectrified, so he could only buy on a small scale.
Storing the supplies in the three-story building where he currently lived was possible, but eventually, they would need to be moved to the base, which was too troubleso.
So Li Yu had been waiting for the underground storage to be built before transporting everything in one go.
It's worth ntioning that the cent road near National Highway 319, which was about two kiloters from the location currently under construction.
And for the base to connect to the village road, Li Yu built a cent path less than five ters wide, specifically choosing to build in an area with many trees for cover, so that it was virtually invisible from the village road.
Moreover, this path had a few turns, making it even more concealed.
On this path, 100 ters from the village road, one would face a gate made of fine steel double-layer panels welded together.
The gate is about 5 ters high and 8 ters wide, with a thickness of nearly 30 centiters and a double-opening design.
The gate had not yet been grouted and capped, so even the tallest objects could be transported in.
This size was also a comprehensive consideration by Li Yu, based on the size of the vehicles and so additional space.
This gate alone cost Li Yu several hundred thousand RMB.
Next to the gate, Li Yu also opened a small door only 2.5 ters high and 1.5 ters wide. The small door was also made of fine steel.
Li Yu stood in the spacious underground warehouse, looking at the 2000 square ters of open space before him.
His heart swelled with grandeur.
Within two months, he wanted to fill this place.
The ticulous Li Yu, according to the 2000 square ters of space, organized categories such as food, dicine, clothing, hygiene products, fuel, barter goods, tools, and so forth.
He divided each area systematically. The organization was clear at a glance.
Searching for items later would also be extrely convenient.
According to Li Yu's budget, a total of 30 million RMB from winning the lottery and a loan of 20 million, altogether 50 million RMB,
He planned to spend 25 million RMB on the base construction and 25 million RMB on purchasing supplies.
Opening the prepared list from earlier (see the previous chapter, the author is squeezed dry, not much fluff),
o(￣ヘ￣o＃)
With a wave of his hand, tapping on his phone, he contacted various wholesalers! (Don't ask why wholesalers, asking ans saving money!)
Starting the crazy shopping mode!!!
Buy, buy, buy!
All purchased survival supplies were calculated for a provision of 50 people for 20 years.
He even made a special call to his younger sister, asking what were the 10 items she most wanted to buy.
Then he purchased them one by one.
It's worth ntioning that Li Yu, along with his uncle Li Hongcheng and his brother Li Hang, specifically went to the 4S shop again and bought three Ford pickups and two six-seater SUVs.
But they didn't buy trucks because their family's culvert business, including the delivery vehicles, already had two trucks.
Of course, the five cars they bought were all purchased on the longest-term loans.
Since it was the apocalypse, not taking advantage of this would be a waste!
In Li Yu's heart, there was only one voice: Take it!
All purchased materials were bought on installnt plans wherever possible, and loans were taken out wherever possible.
Driving back, they happened to encounter their father on the village road.
Li Hongyuan saw the convoy of cars and, hearing from Xiao Hang that these were all cars bought by Li Yu, was montarily dumbfounded: "Yu, people usually buy cars one at a ti; are you stocking up?"
Li Yu didn't elaborate much, as this was just the beginning, and later the tons of supplies coming in would probably be even harder for Li Hongyuan to accept.
Instead, it was Li Hang who was quite excited, squinting his smart little eyes and cheekily saying to elder brother, "Big brother, did you buy anything for in here?"
Seeing Li Hang like this, Li Yu laughed.
He said, "Yes, there's sothing for you, that SUV is yours."
Li Hang excitedly shouted, "Oh yeah, big brother is the best! I haven't touched a car since I got my driver's license."
Watching his little brother's happy expression, Li Yu reminisced about the tis he used to beat him up when they were little.
Internally he thought: Still such a child.
Uncle Li Hongcheng, who ca along, was also surprised to see so many cars, but he didn't say anything.
Li Yu handed a bottle of water to each of the car delivery staff at the 4S shop and then gave each of them 100 RMB red envelope. Although helping with car delivery was part of their job, giving them a bonus was a common courtesy.
The staff happily accepted the money, praising Li Yu for his generosity.
One of the staff asked, "Director Li, why are you buying so many cars?"
Li Yu vaguely replied, "There are many people in my family, and we need to transport goods often, so I bought them together." Then he prepared to get into the car and drive it away.
The staff seed to realize that Li Yu was busy, so they quickly left after a few words.
Indeed, Li Yu did not include these workers in the base, nor did he let them see the base here.
The fewer people knew about the base, the better, to avoid others targeting this place.
Li Yu, with his younger brother and uncle Li Hongcheng, drove the cars into the base in several trips.
The next day, Li Yu and his party went to the city. So "weapons" he had ordered before had contacted him in the last couple of days, saying they were ready for him to pick up.
There was a shop that specialized in producing swords and crossbows. It took Li Yu a long ti and so money to find soone willing to procure these items for him.
They were people who conducted black market business, not afraid to break the law, just afraid of being underpaid.
First was the king of counter-terrorism cold weapons—20 modern Compound Crossbows, priced at 19888 each, paired with 30 arrows.
To et Li Yu's requests, the shop added another 270 arrows per crossbow.
In total, 20 crossbows and 6000 arrows.
They also purchased 40 pieces of Tachi, Yanling Saber, protective armor, and more.
Despite persistent requests, the shopkeeper was still reluctant to sharpen the blades.
Finally, Li Yu stated that he would not buy anything if they were not sharpened, slightly pressuring the seller.
Then he quickly offered an additional 100,000 RMB as a sharpening fee—a big sweetener.
In the end, the shopkeeper agreed to sharpen the blades.
However, when Li Yu was paying, the shopkeeper looked at him as if he were insane.
Just like a normal person writing a diary, what normal person would buy so many swords and even have them sharpened!
Li Yu and his brother made several trips to the city and finally managed to load everything onto the pickup truck.
They didn't take the highway on the way back, nervously returning to the base.
Fortunately, no police stopped them, as the situation would have been too difficult to explain under interrogation.
The two brothers were drenched in sweat after moving all those items.
His younger brother didn't ask anything but instead looked quite excited.
Li Yu instructed him not to tell anyone, including their parents.
His younger brother nodded understandingly and then shambled off to take a shower.
Watching his brother's behavior, Li Yu realized there was no need to explain further.
What a numbskull.
Looking at the purchased weapons, Li Yu stored them in a hidden corner of the warehouse and locked them up with a heavy lock. He kept the key on him at all tis.
.......
That evening, Li Yu contacted several food suppliers he had previously researched, including suppliers of rice, cooking oil, seasonings, tea, etc.
He scheduled visits with each of them.
Then he turned on his computer and downloaded various types of available dia, including TV shows, movies, docuntaries, variety shows, etc.
To download these files, Li Yu purchased 100 SSDs and 100 chanical hard drives, each with a capacity of 10T, with a total of nearly 2000T of storage.
If each dia file was calculated at 1G, around 2 million dia files could be downloaded.
Of course, he also downloaded thousands of adult films, essential for a man.
With his many years of bachelorhood, finding adult websites was no challenge. Downloading these was ant to cultivate his taste, occasionally watching famous Japanese adult films was beneficial for his ntal and physical health.
He also downloaded books ranging from nine-year compulsory education topics to various industry sectors like agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and fisheries.
From history and humanities to geography, from chemistry and physics to political ethics, he paired these with Kindle e-readers.
He also purchased so old VCDs from a nearly bankrupt music store, spending 150,000 RMB in one go.
Looking at the five computers that were synchronizing downloads, and then at the neat rows of hundreds of computers and unopened new Huawei smartphones and tablets,
He slapped his forehead, realizing this was a bit overwhelming.
.....
Li Yu made another trip to the used book store, hauling three truckloads of books in batches.
By the way, after receiving the design from a classmate who had worked in interior design in City M, Li Yu made a few small safety and durability enhancents to the plans.
The largest 300-square-ter villa had a nearly 30 square ter ho cinema built in the first-floor basent.
It also included a gym, a card room, and other recreational spaces.
This set of houses was where Li Yu invested most of his effort, costing nearly 2 million RMB.
The remaining four villas were simply renovated.
Ti passed quickly,
and the construction of the base changed day by day.
When nearly 40 heavy-duty trucks first entered the underground warehouse, it really surprised Li Hongyuan.
He criticized Li Yu for wasting money.
"Can you even eat this much?"
Li Yu firmly told his father not to interfere, which made Li Hongyuan grind his teeth in frustration.
Most of these materials were transported from other provinces.
By raising the prices, Li Yu persuaded the suppliers to transport them here, along with laborers.
This indeed cost Li Yu a large sum of money.
This was to prevent people nearby from knowing what they were transporting; after the apocalypse, with the Emperor far away and the area overrun with zombies, it would be difficult for the drivers to find this place again.
Even if they tried to find it, they would have to cross provinces,
which would be a major issue during the zombie apocalypse.
