Apocalyptic Disaster: I Hoard Billions in Supplies and Kill the Saint

5: Chapter 5 Crazy Snack StreetHello, Aijia Real Estate. How can I help you?

The house in Railway Residential District, High-Tech Zone. I require the transaction to be completed within three days, cash payment.

The agent on the other end paused for a moment, then asked tentatively.

Would you like to wait a bit longer? This residential district is about to receive demolition compensation...?

120 square meters, 2 million, cash.

Ye Nanxing said in a flat tone.

This price is at least 600,000 below market value. Are you sure...?

The agent spoke up, sounding uneasy.

I am the owner. The property has no disputes. Transaction within three days, cash.

Ye Nanxing frowned imperceptibly and emphasized again.

The agent was stunned for a moment, then reacted and immediately changed their tone: ”Understood. Since you’re in such a rush to sell, you must have an urgent need for funds. I’ll arrange to take clients to view the property immediately. I can take photos today and guarantee it will be done within three days.”

Also, help me rent a 100-square-meter apartment.

Alright, I’ll be there in an hour.

After selling this house, plus her savings, she should have 2.4 million in hand.

For the Apocalypse, this amount of money really isn’t much. She still needs to plan everything out carefully.

Hanging up the phone, Ye Nanxing picked up the property deed, put on a simple jacket, grabbed her car keys, and went out.

An hour later, at the Railway Residential District.

The real estate agent skillfully inspected the house, took photos, and confirmed the asking price.

Ms. Ye, the information has been registered. I will contact clients and bring them to view the house before tonight. Would it be convenient for you to provide a key?

Ye Nanxing took a spare key from her bag and handed it over: ”Sure, complete the transaction as soon as possible.”

The agent smiled and accepted the key: ”Rest assured, we specialize in these urgent listings. At this price, it will definitely be very popular.”

After speaking, the agent carefully probed: ”Ms. Ye, since you’re selling your house, have you considered buying another one? We have many excellent listings on hand at very reasonable prices.”

Ye Nanxing’s eyes lit up slightly; this would save her the trouble of looking for a place herself.

I want to rent one that is far from the city center, quiet, and preferably with an independent water and power supply.

Hearing this, the real estate manager immediately opened their computer, quickly filtered, and asked.

Are you living there by yourself?

Ye Nanxing immediately looked at the real estate manager with vigilance. The Apocalypse was coming soon; others didn’t know, but she had to be careful in advance. After all, in that era where people ate people, anything could happen.

Seeing Ye Nanxing’s reaction, the real estate manager immediately offered an obsequious smile.

Ms. Ye, don’t misunderstand. It’s just that we have a batch of new houses with zero down payment. You only need to pay the mortgage on time every month. The cost is similar to renting, so it’s more cost-effective. Would you like to consider it?

Ye Nanxing’s eyes lit up after hearing this.

This was good. For the same price, if she bought a house with zero down payment, she wouldn’t have to spend extra money, and she wouldn’t have the risk of being chased for rent by a landlord later. Most importantly, the house would be hers, and she could renovate it however she wanted.

Of course, Ye Nanxing automatically ignored the additional taxes incurred by buying a house with zero down payment; after all, she was already prepared to default on the loan after one year.

Where is the house located? I need to see it first.

Suppressing the wild joy in her heart, Ye Nanxing still insisted on seeing the house first, planning to decide after confirming the location.

Qingshui District, Jinding Phoenix City. We can view it now.

Seeing that Ye Nanxing didn’t refuse, the real estate manager said excitedly.

After all, the commission for selling a house couldn’t be compared to renting. Seeing that he had a chance to close two property deals today, the real estate manager became even more enthusiastic toward Ye Nanxing.

Two hours later, Qingshui District, Jinding Phoenix City.

Standing at the entrance of the residential complex, Ye Nanxing was a bit shocked. No wonder it required zero down payment; the location was indeed remote.

But this was exactly the result Ye Nanxing wanted.

The complex’s amenities were good, and the landscaping was nice, but the occupancy rate was not high.

Although the windows were uniformly sealed, looking around, there were few people in the complex, and even most of the shops downstairs were empty.

Seeing Ye Nanxing’s expression, the real estate manager felt a bit guilty. He had brought many people here, and basically, they all left after one look—it was too remote.

After confirming the location at the sales center, Ye Nanxing signed decisively while the real estate manager felt nervous.

Ye Nanxing bought the top floor, which came with an extra floor, totaling nearly 300 square meters. Now, she would be able to live very comfortably even in the Apocalypse.

With everything arranged, Ye Nanxing returned to her residence; the sky had already darkened.

The streets were still bustling, and the lights were brilliant.

She looked up at this familiar city. After the Apocalypse arrived, these high-rise buildings would eventually turn into ruins, and the warm lights would be swallowed by darkness.

Her heart sank slightly, but she quickly pulled herself together and walked toward the nearby snack street.

Forget it, first, she would enjoy a good meal.

Just as she stepped into the snack street, the aroma of steaming hot food rushed toward her.

The sweet scent of roasted sweet potatoes, the rich, oily, and savory aroma of deep-fried skewers, the steaming hot takoyaki... all of these would become luxuries in the Apocalypse!

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She walked to a fried chicken stall and ordered a portion of crispy fried chicken wings. The hot, golden skin glistened with crispy oil. She took a bite, and with a crunch, it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

She continued strolling while eating. The aroma of sugar-roasted chestnuts drifted through the air, and the familiar sound of stir-frying in an iron wok rang out. The owner smiled happily, filled a whole bag, and handed it to her.

Young lady, eat it while it’s hot. It’s fresh stock today, especially sweet!

Ye Nanxing smiled and accepted it: ”Thank you.”

She continued walking to a pan-fried bun shop. The freshly cooked pan-fried buns were steaming, the bottoms were charred and fragrant, and when bitten into, the soup overflowed.

Boss, one portion of Luosifen, normal spice level.

At the Luosifen stall, the boss skillfully scooped up the rice noodles, poured on the boiling river snail soup, added pickled bamboo shoots, dried bean curd, wood ear mushrooms, and finally sprinkled a handful of crunchy peanuts.

Before long, a steaming bowl was served. Red chili oil floated on the surface of the soup, and the spicy aroma stimulated her taste buds.

Ye Nanxing held the bowl, picked up a mouthful of rice noodles, and put it into her mouth. The sour, spicy, and savory flavors exploded on her tongue instantly.

She slurped a spoonful of the soup; the taste was rich with a faint, fresh river snail flavor, and her body felt slightly warm.

After finishing the Luosifen, she walked to a drink stall and ordered a cup of lemon black tea. The cold lemon juice blended with the black tea, creating a sweet, sour, and refreshing taste that perfectly neutralized the spiciness in her mouth.

After the Apocalypse, she would likely never be able to eat these things again.

The night was cool, and the streets were still bustling. Ye Nanxing walked slowly, buying more and more food.

By the time she came to her senses, she was already carrying fried chicken, roast duck, stinky tofu, spicy crayfish, takoyaki...

There was too much food to finish, so she simply put the remaining snacks into her space.

In the middle of the night, Ye Nanxing had returned home, took a lovely bath to wash away her fatigue, and fell into a deep sleep with a sense of satisfaction.

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the curtains.

Ye Nanxing turned over. Just as she was about to get up, the takoyaki she had packed the night before suddenly appeared in her mind.

With a slight thought, the box of snacks from the space instantly appeared in her hand.

She looked down and saw that it was actually still hot!

She opened it and took a bite; the octopus was chewy, the sauce was rich, and it was exactly the same as when she had just bought it last night!

Her pupils constricted slightly, and her heart rate accelerated.

The space could not only store items, but time also stood still?

This meant—food could be preserved for a long time and accessed at any time!

This discovery made Ye Nanxing completely excited.

She quickly sank into the space and looked around, discovering that the remaining snacks were neatly piled on the ground, but they looked just as fresh as when she had put them in!

At the same time, a piece of information appeared in her mind—

[Space can be upgraded. Current level: LV1. Upgrade requirement: Absorb jade stone essence.]

jade stone?!
