Chapter 153 Obtaining a Boat
Chapter 153 Obtaining a Boat
Before I came out, when I contacted Duanmu Hong, he told me the news about Feicui and his brother. He said that someone from the capital sent a letter saying that there were some things going on and the road was difficult to travel, so they would stay for a few more days. He also said that Duanmu Qing and Feicui were quite safe, so we shouldn't worry.
As long as we hear the news that Feicui is safe, my family and I feel relieved.
Thinking about emerald while paddling the kayak.
I did see a few policemen patrolling in kayaks along the way, but their kayaks were several times larger than mine, and usually there were four people in one boat.
When the police saw me from a distance, they scolded me loudly and told me to find a safe place to stay or go home quickly. They also said responsibly that it was too dangerous outside and I should not walk around.
I also waved to show that I understood, and then passed by their boat.
Now I have the ability of the third level and my physical strength is beyond doubt. I rowed for a distance and passed the Banshan Supermarket. At present, the gate has been completely submerged. After careful observation, there is no one around. I am tired of rowing and plan to rest here for a while and look for leaks at the same time.
More than half of my space is now vacant, so I should be able to store a lot more things. This shopping mall is not a large one, it can only be said to be medium-sized, with only five floors in total. Now the first and second floors are flooded, so the third, fourth and fifth floors should be fine. I'll go in and take a rest, and by the way, see if there is anything else and take everything away while I can use it, because there may be no chance in the future.
I found a kayak in a corner and instantly fell into the water. I swam for a while in the old way to my own lounge to rest, and then used the lounge to move horizontally to the inside of the mall.
The space on each floor of the shopping mall is higher than that of the residential buildings, so the flood only reached the middle of his second floor.
Although Mid-Levels Supermarket is considered a large supermarket in Mid-Levels, it is not actually a large shopping mall, so the goods are not as complete and varied as those in large shopping malls.
The entire first floor was flooded and the food inside was soaked. Apparently it didn't matter whether you looked at it or not.
The second floor basically had some daily necessities and food, which had been looted by others before it was flooded, and the floor was a mess. I climbed up to the third floor to take a look, and actually their goods only reached the fourth floor. The fifth floor was the employee cafeteria and various offices, and there was almost nothing valuable.
The third floor is for household and leisure products.
There are many women's products on the counter next to the stairs, and a row of shelves of women's handbags. There are all kinds of handbags on them, including shoulder and crossbody handbags of various colors and styles... There are so many varieties. These things can't be eaten, and they can't be used. The small bags that all kinds of beautiful girls used to compete to buy were scattered all over the floor and trampled beyond recognition.
Going further inside, there are household items, as well as a lot of bedding, pajamas, slippers and so on. Because they are not food, and it is not convenient to take them away because of the flood outside, not many people take them. Although they are also turned into a mess, there are still a lot of brand new goods that have not been unpacked piled there. Our family needs these things, so I put them into the space as long as they are not too dirty.
Then there was this counter full of girls' toys. There were perfumes, all kinds of hats, small handbags, small keychains, mirrors, hairpins, and all kinds of cute leather cases for hair ties... In the toy area, there were sets of blind box plush dolls, Barbie dolls and other girls' toys, as well as cute cartoon cups and buckets. When I thought about the fact that I have a lot of girls at home, I decided to buy them all.
On the shelves over there were rows of socks, underwear, bras, both men's and women's, which were also in a mess. But again, these were not food, so ordinary victims only took what they needed and left, so there was still a large amount left. I didn't hesitate to put all the sizes into the space.
There are still a lot of children's clothes, hats, shoes, unopened bottles, pacifiers and other leftover items in the baby and toddler counters. Don't think too much, just buy them all.
Mosquito nets, cool mats, camping tents and towels are provided.
In several trucks in the middle of the third floor were piled shirts, jackets and vests of middle-aged and elderly people. No matter what size or age they were, they were all taken away.
I had already cleaned up the third floor and went straight to the fourth floor, where there were electrical appliances, computers, mobile phones and other things. At this time, no one needed these things, but many computers and mobile phones were smashed by the crazy victims, and the fragments were scattered all over the floor. Does this mean that what cannot be obtained must be destroyed?
Finally I found the dryer I wanted, which is great. Those wet clothes can be saved. I put several dryers in the space. Anyway, there is space, so I put all the appliances that have not been smashed in the space: large ones such as refrigerators, TVs, washing machines, air purifiers, steamers, water heaters, electric heaters and fans, etc., small ones such as mops, sweepers, rice cookers, fans, hair dryers, soybean milk machines...
There was also a treadmill and various exercise equipment over there. I took them away. Since I couldn't go downstairs in the future, I could only run and exercise at home. I walked around the offices on the fifth floor and collected a few boss chairs and leather sofas. There was nothing valuable.
I looked at the time and it had been more than an hour. I had rested enough, so I drank a bottle of water and ate some bread in the boss' office. I was soaked from head to toe after diving for half a day. I changed into a set of dry clothes, put on the simple cotton coat prepared for the elderly in the supermarket, and put on the raincoat I just found. Why did it feel like the weather was getting colder and colder?
This time he brought his kayak into the space lounge and then went out of the mall through the space lounge, which ensured that he stayed dry and warm.
Continue to seize the time and row towards the mountain where the villa complex is.
The water level has already reached one-tenth of the middle of the mountain. Now there are many cars of wealthy families parked above the water level, as well as drivers waiting for their employers to go out for work or other things. It is a bustling scene.
I have just contacted Duanmu Ning. He said he has sent someone to tow a small boat to wait for me here.
Although this child is young, he is quite thoughtful.
Sure enough, when I arrived here, I saw an acquaintance. I took a closer look and it was none other than my swimming coach, Zhang Jia.
He and another guy were driving a trailer, towing a simple small fishing boat, the kind of wooden boat that people usually use for leisure fishing at the lake. It was painted blue and white and was very beautiful. It was indeed not too big, about four meters long and one and a half meters wide. It was not too heavy and it was a bit difficult for one person to push it, but it was manageable.
Seeing me coming, Zhang Jia greeted me in a friendly manner and told me that their master Duanmu said that he would give me the boat for use, so he came here with his men, and would hurry back after giving me the things.
I looked over and saw that it was almost dark and time for dinner.
After they helped push the boat into the water, they helped me lift the kayak onto the boat.
I was very grateful and took out a pack of Lotus cigarettes from my space backpack and gave them to them, saying that this was specially for them and thanked them for their help.
They were both a little embarrassed. Cigarettes are really expensive now! I stuffed it into Zhang Jia's pocket and rowed away from the foot of the mountain.
Once out of their sight, I put the kayak away, otherwise it would be difficult to row the boat.
The journey was quite smooth, and I collected enough things in my space, especially the blind boxes, Barbie dolls, small clips, small mirrors, plush dolls, key chains, etc. that girls like. I went back and gave some to each of my sisters to make the little sisters in the building happy, because New Year's Day is coming soon.
This year is almost over, what a great life!
