After Xie Lingruo decided on her future plans, she first used the scumbag’s identity information to rent a warehouse in the suburbs for stockpiling, and then found a highly-rated special training class online.
For the next month, she planned to stockpile supplies in the mornings, exercise in the afternoons, and receive supplies at the warehouse in the evenings. After all, a strong body was the foundation of revolution.
Therefore, she planned to tackle both physical training and material collection simultaneously.
According to the research results of future experts, people with good physical fitness are more likely to Awaken abilities, so she hoped to quickly improve her physical fitness to have a chance to gain abilities in the future.
In her memories, both the male and female protagonists had abilities; the female protagonist had water-element abilities, and the male protagonist had earth-element abilities.
If she wanted to seek revenge on them in the future, she needed to have the capability. It was a pity she couldn't send them to their deaths now, as it was still a society governed by law, and she didn't want to welcome the apocalypse in prison because of these two scumbags.
So, the most important thing now was that she had to seize the time. Xie Lingruo first took out paper and pen on the table to record the supplies she needed to hoard. She dared not use a computer or mobile phone to record this, fearing it would attract unwanted attention.
Although modern technology is convenient, people can easily be traced after using electronic products, so she chose to use paper and pen for her records.
Xie Lingruo’s hoarding list was mainly planned around the four major aspects of clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Medicines and weapons could only be accumulated slowly due to the current inconvenience of large-scale stockpiling.
A while later, after Xie Lingruo finished recording the materials needed for early-stage stockpiling with pen and paper, she took her bank card to the bank to withdraw money. This was to ensure safer cash transactions with merchants later.
She had about thirty million in her bank card and withdrew ten million in cash. Because the amount was too large, the bank staff even specifically asked if she needed an escort, which Xie Lingruo quickly declined.
However, she could ask them to help move the cash into her car, mainly because she was alone.
So, Xie Lingruo asked the staff to help put the cash she had just withdrawn into her car. In the end, it took the trunk of a sports car to hold all the money.
Once Xie Lingruo drove the car to an unmonitored and deserted location, she directly stored all the cash into her space.
After completing these tasks, she drove the sports car she had just been driving directly to a trading house, exchanged it for another two million in cash, and used a current fake number, leaving Lin Yiyi's name.
Finally, she rented a medium-sized minivan for a month, which would be convenient for her as a means of transport for stockpiling later.
She had already planned that before going to other places later, Xie Lingruo would first go to the restroom to disguise herself as a middle-aged woman and then buy a phone number that didn't require an ID.
This way, she wouldn't be afraid of anyone noticing her stockpiling. Don't say she was timid; she simply lacked the ability at the moment and had to lay low!
Subsequently, Xie Lingruo drove the minivan she had just rented to the wholesale market. This time, she planned to first buy a batch of rice, flour, grain, and oil, which were the most essential supplies.
She planned to buy these daily necessities first, but she wasn't going to buy everything in large quantities from a single store.
Xie Lingruo went to a total of eight stores, buying four thousand jin of various types of rice and five hundred jin of various packaged flours from each. After all, she was a true southerner in her previous life and preferred eating rice, so she stockpiled more rice.
In addition, she bought a total of three thousand barrels of cooking oil, and one thousand bottles each of sesame oil, chili oil, oyster sauce, and other condiments.
She also bought a lot of other seasonings, five thousand bags of salt from several stores, a total of eight thousand bags of sugar, and two thousand bags of other seasonings each.
Xie Lingruo bought a lot of salt, and later bought three thousand jin of coarse salt. This is indispensable for the human body. In case she Transmigrates to ancient times in the future, salt is strictly controlled by the government, so she had to plan ahead.
She also bought one thousand jin of other coarse grains like corn, sweet potatoes, black beans, and red beans. She bought less because Xie Lingruo herself didn't like eating coarse grains.
However, she was worried about going to other worlds that were even more lacking in clothing and food later, and at that time, she could only bring out coarse grains, which is why she stockpiled some coarse grains for emergencies.
She bought these items this morning, paying a four million deposit first, with a remaining balance of five million to be settled upon delivery.
Finally, Xie Lingruo left the warehouse address and a fake number for those merchants and quickly left.
In addition, Xie Lingruo also specifically asked the suppliers of several stores to stagger their delivery times to minimize unnecessary trouble.
Xie Lingruo had arranged for them to deliver during various time slots in the evening. It was already noon, so she decided to go to a small roadside restaurant to eat something and appease her rumbling stomach.
Although small restaurants are not hygienic, they are cheap. Now she had to budget every penny carefully; saving more money meant she could stockpile more supplies.
Therefore, for lunch today, Xie Lingruo ordered a plate of stir-fried rice noodles and a bottle of the cheapest mineral water.
According to the System, she had to wait until her mission body naturally died of old age in each world before she could leave.
Therefore, for her to be able to eat and dress warmly in the apocalypse later, she had to save funds.
It wasn't that the money she had looked like a lot; in reality, when she actually started stockpiling, she realized, "You truly regret not having enough money when you need it!"
After finishing her meal, Xie Lingruo first went to the restroom and directly changed out of her previous disguise, putting on the sportswear she had prepared in her space earlier, as she was about to meet her Coach.
She specifically found this training gym online. The coaches there were all retired soldiers, some even from special forces, and they had an excellent reputation with no instances of misleading customers.
Xie Lingruo dared not be stingy in this regard, directly spending a hefty eighty thousand a month to hire their gold-medal instructor.
Xie Lingruo drove her minivan to the Golden Dragon Training Gym and met her Coach.
His surname was Yu, he was about forty years old, with clearly defined muscles, looking like a trained fighter at a glance.
As soon as Xie Lingruo saw his physique, she was somewhat satisfied, as she came to learn skills, and those showy coaches were not to her liking.
Later, when she learned that Coach Yu had won the national martial arts championship, she was even more satisfied, exclaiming that she had found a treasure.
However, her time was limited now, so Xie Lingruo asked him to teach her how to quickly learn free combat and how to use various knives.
Actually, Coach Yu was somewhat displeased when he first saw Xie Lingruo as a client, because he thought: a delicate girl like her coming here was probably just for fun.
However, Xie Lingruo's subsequent performance made him look at her in a new light. Besides completing the movements he taught her, she would also practice extra on her own, a dedication he greatly admired.
Furthermore, she indeed had a talent for martial arts. If Xie Lingruo hadn't been older, he would have wanted to take her as his disciple.
Of course, today Lin Yiyi, the original female protagonist, had also sent her a text message inviting her to dinner, but she had directly blacklisted her. After all, time was pressing, and there was no need to waste time on such people.
Every time Lin Yiyi went out with Lin Qingxue, she would only show up and never pay. Lin Qingxue was like a fool, perhaps because she didn't have many friends and valued the friendship Lin Yiyi had created too much.
Speaking of which, Lin Qingxue's judgment was truly poor. And that scumbag Zhang Wenbin, only his face was presentable. Every time they ate or went shopping, Lin Qingxue was the one who paid.
Before the apocalypse, he was just a gigolo who lived off women. She couldn't understand how such a person became the male protagonist of this world.
