Chapter 28: Warning
A worker saw her looking at them and asked, "Miss, are we disturbing you?"
Yao Ran shook her head, "No."
The soundproofing of Ling Yuan apartment complex was excellent, so she didn't hear anything before she came out. She didn't even know workers were replacing the door in unit 2002.
When the workers saw that she had locked her door, they continued working without saying a word. Yao Ran looked at the heavy metal doors thoughtfully for a moment and then left.
She drove her small truck to several restaurants and stocked up on a lot of food. The factory called her when she was waiting for her order in one of the restaurants.
After putting the food into the space, Yao Ran drove to the warehouse. Not long after, the farm machinery she bought yesterday arrived.
She had put aside the money to pay for the farm machinery and transferred it to the factory owner after making sure the machinery was new and worked perfectly.
Just as she moved the farm machinery into her space, the manager of the car showroom called her. Now that the manager had asked where to deliver the cars, Yao Ran gave him the address and waited in the warehouse.
An hour later, she saw vehicles approaching from the distance.
The drivers parked the car in front of the warehouse and handed the keys to Yao Ran. After checking the vehicle, she paid the remaining money, and the driver left.
Now that the farm machinery and the cars have been delivered, only military canned food and metal doors and windows are left.
Yao Ran locked the warehouse and continued to stock up on food. During the day, she stocked up on food and filled water containers at midnight.
Early the next morning, Yao Ran received a call from the factory selling military food. She ate a few steamed buns and went to the warehouse to receive the goods. After she paid and put everything into her space, she returned the warehouse's key to the owner and went home.
In the afternoon, workers came to install metal doors and windows.
Seeing that her home did not have floor heating, a worker asked, "Miss, do you want to install floor heating? We also sell it in our store. If you need it, we can install it today."
Considering the incoming extreme cold, Yao Ran decided to install floor heating in her
bedroom. While the workers were busy, the store owner called her.
"Miss, the metal doors, tempered glass, and bulletproof glass you want are all ready. You can come and get them."
Yao Ran said, "All right. I will be there in thirty minutes."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After hanging up the phone, Yao Ran told the workers that she would be back soon. She drove the small truck and hurried to the store. When she arrived, the store owner was waiting for her.
He smiled and said, "Miss, your order is ready. Do you want to check the goods?"
"Yes."
The store owner took her to the warehouse, where she carefully inspected the goods. Yao Ran was very satisfied with the quality and paid the remaining money.
Seeing that she was alone, the store owner asked the workers to help load the goods onto Yao Ran's small truck. Once the truck was full, Yao Ran drove to a secluded alley and moved everything to her space. It took her several trips to move everything into her space.
When she finally got home, the workers had finished installing three metal doors and replacing the windows. Seeing that the floor heating was also almost done, Yao Ran sat outside and waited.
Half an hour later, a worker said, "Miss, we have installed the floor heating. You can try it out. If something goes wrong, we can fix it immediately."
"All right."
Yao Ran went to the bedroom and turned on the floor heating.
The floor heating system she bought uses the latest technology. It only takes a few seconds for warmth to spread throughout the bedroom.
After she turned it off, the workers gave everything a final check before leaving.
Looking at the thick metal doors and bulletproof windows, Yao Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the preparations were complete, all she could do was wait for the natural disasters to strike the world.
In the next few days, Yao Ran stayed in her apartment. She cooked a lot of food, downloaded videos, and filled water containers at night. It took her six days to fill all the empty containers with clean water. At the same time, the intensity of the rain was increasing day by day.
Twenty days later, the government issued the first typhoon warning.
[Warning! A super typhoon is expected to hit Juncheng City in a week. Please be prepared.]
After reading the message from the Bureau of Meteorology and Geophysics on her mobile phone, Yao Ran looked at the heavy rain outside.
She clenched her phone and frowned. The natural disaster came faster compared with her previous life.
While she was deep in thought, someone rang the doorbell. Yao Ran came back from her thoughts, walked over, and opened two metal doors. Instead of opening the last door, she looked out through the peephole.
Seeing that the person waiting outside was a stranger, Yao Ran opened the last metal door. The middle-aged man was surprised to see the thickness of the metal door.
Yao Ran saw him curiously looking toward her apartment. She frowned and asked coldly, "Who are you?"
Hearing Yao Ran's question, the middle-aged man retracted his gaze.
He smiled at her and said, "Hello. My name is Sun Zhouping. I am the community manager of Building 3. I am here to ask if you would like to join our community chat group."
Yao Ran considered for a moment and decided to join the chat group. With the supplies she had, living alone for a long time was not a problem. However, she still needed to know what was going on outside.
