Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

Chapter 24: The first time I saw someone hoarding sanitary napkins

Before this, I had never thought of buying investment gold bars in the exchange in China. It was only after staying in the hotel for the past two days that I realized that buying gold bars is actually much more cost-effective than going directly to a gold shop to purchase gold jewelry. After all, gold jewelry will also charge a certain labor fee.

As soon as I entered, I saw a staff member listlessly sitting in front of the central air-conditioning to enjoy the cool air. Even when he saw Gu Tongwan, he didn't intend to say hello.

Gu Tongwan was not angry, but asked calmly: "Excuse me, are there any investment gold bars for sale here?"

The staff thought it was another person who would not buy after being asked, so they simply said in a muffled voice, "Yes, we will buy it at the market price of the day."

Seeing that Gu Tongwan hesitated for a moment and ignored him, the staff member was about to roll his eyes, and then he heard the other party say: "Give me three 1000-gram gold bars and one 200-gram one."

The staff member's eyes widened suddenly, and he stood up straight, looking at the Asian girl in front of him with disbelief.

Although this girl's clothes are simple and not from famous brands, her temperament and manner of conversation are different from those of ordinary people. Could she be a third-generation rich girl?

By the way, there are many third-generation Chinese who have gone to study in Country P in the past few years, and the person in front of me might be one of them.

The staff's attitude changed 180 degrees. They warmly welcomed Gu Tongwan to sit on the sofa next to them and personally brought out a bottle of iced latte to entertain him.

Gu Tongwan didn't care about the attitudes of the two staff members in front and behind him, and asked the staff to calculate the price. The two gold bars cost almost 200,000 US dollars.

He also used the excuse of using the restroom in the exchange and threw the purchased gold bars directly into the space.

[3200 grams of gold detected, automatically converted into 3200 points, current points 3203, host, would you like to use it to upgrade the space? ]

"Yes," Gu Tongwan replied.

[This upgrade requires 3200 points, space is being upgraded, remaining points are 3]

"System, I remember there were some remaining points when I upgraded before, at least several dozen points, why didn't you take that into account?"

It's not that Gu Tongwan is fussy about those few points, it's mainly because she is a poor bitch now, so she has to be thrifty. She also wants to get back those small points that were swallowed up before.

Unfortunately, the system pretended to be dead this time and was unwilling to pay any attention to her.

Gu Tongwan's mouth twitched again. Oh my god, I've returned to the time before liberation overnight. I'll always have only single-digit points. What a damn system...

After a burst of white light, the space upgrade was completed. The space directly expanded from 150 square meters to about 300 square meters. The previous items seemed scattered in such a large space.

After this upgrade, Gu Tongwan also discovered that the water flowing out of the ancient well in the space was no longer intermittent, but instead a very small column of water. According to the law of doubling, it should now be able to hold 8 bottles of mineral water, which is about 4L.

After leaving the exchange with satisfaction, he hurried into the supermarket. This time there was still 110,000 US dollars in the card. Gu Tongwan first used his mobile phone to transfer the money to his former colleague for the batch of medicines he had ordered earlier, spending 450,000 yuan. He also had the remaining 30,000 yuan for the purchase of smokeless carbon. Now the amount in the card was equivalent to about 500,000 yuan.

There is also the cost of the land in Xiaoxi Village and the materials for building the house, which together would cost at least more than 400,000 yuan. Gu Tongwan suddenly felt a headache. Why couldn't this money be spent easily? Why did the bounty from Country P take so long to be distributed?

No matter how much we complain, we still have to hurry up and stock up.

This time she increased her purchase of sanitary napkins and bought 500 more packs. The way she shopped stunned the woman who was choosing next to her. She didn't care about other people's surprised looks at all and filled two shopping carts with sanitary napkins.

A Chinese woman in her forties next to me couldn't help but ask, "Beautiful lady, isn't it a bit unethical for you to buy all the items at once? Don't you see others are still choosing here?"

The woman spent nearly half an hour shopping here, comparing prices, but her shopping cart was still empty.

Gu Tongwan raised his eyebrows and asked calmly: "I am scanning the sanitary napkins here. Don't you have some in front of you? Also, supermarkets are open for people to buy things. As long as I am willing to pay, it's fine."

After saying that, I turned around and left, not wanting to waste words with such people anymore. There are always some people whose lives are boring and who always want to use others as a spice to their boring daily lives.

The woman was so angry that she yelled from behind: "This is the first time I've seen someone hoarding sanitary napkins. This is crazy!"

What just happened was just a small episode. Gu Tongwan came to the toilet paper again and bought two hundred more rolls of toilet paper.

Then we went to the fast food area and ordered two or three hundred cans of potato salad, canned meat, bean products, etc. We also bought one hundred roast chickens, two hundred large buckets of a certain kind of Gundaz, and one hundred buckets of other foreign brands of ice cream.

Thinking of the hot weather outside, Gu Tongwan asked the supermarket staff if they had any ice for sale.

Unexpectedly, there really is one. A bag that costs five dollars contains at least ten kilograms, and it is filled with cubes of ice that can be eaten directly.

Gu Tongwan directly bought two hundred bags, almost emptying the entire freezer.

After buying all these, the balance on the card was only about 440,000.

Two days later, Gu Tongwan boarded the flight he had purchased in advance and flew back to China.

As soon as I got off the plane, I received a strange text message on my phone.

[Wanwan, it's mom. How are you doing recently? Your mom and I miss you so much. Let's go out for dinner when we are free.]

She sent four or five similar messages in total. When she was abroad, she received one message almost every other day. However, she was busy stocking up and doing other things abroad at the time, so she didn't even check her phone. She even blocked all messages and calls until she got on the plane back to China.

However, there was another piece of information that also made her raise her brows.

[Sister, I’m Zhenzhen. My parents and I miss you very much. We were wrong in the past, but we are a family after all. We miss you very much.]

The family that pointed at me and called me ungrateful in front of the court suddenly sent me this "true love" text message after four or five years of no contact.

When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on. What evil plan is this family up to?
