Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88: Making Wontons (1)

Without waiting for Long Yu to answer, Yao Ran returned to her bedroom. She put away the chocolates and took the money she found from the wealthy CEO's safe. She put the money into a backpack and carried it out.

Seeing her coming back with a backpack, Long Yu glanced at her curiously but didn't ask any questions.

"Let's go and find the others."

Yao Ran locked the door, and the two went to find Shi Xuan and the others.

After everyone gathered in the living room of unit 2001, Yao Ran put the backpack on the low table and said, "I found this when we went to the office building last time. I just finished sorting out the supplies today, and I think that you guys need to know about this."

She then opened the backpack in front of everyone. When the others saw it filled with money, their eyes widened in surprise.

Huang Qian had never seen so much money in his life and asked, "How much money is inside this backpack?"

Shi Xuan and Jia Xiang counted the money and said in shock, "Two million yuan. There's so much money."

If it was before the natural disasters, they could even buy a small house in the suburbs with the money. But now, it is hard to say how much supplies this money can buy.

Huang Zhihui sighed and said pitifully, "We have money, but we can't buy anything."

They just went to the department store today and found that the price of rice has risen to 500 yuan per kilogram, and each person is limited to one kilogram per day. The rice sold is not of high quality but is salvaged out of the water and dried in the sun before being sold to the public.

Because of the dirty water, the government cannot guarantee that people won't get sick after eating the rice. It's edible, but there is no guarantee that eating it won't kill you.

Thinking of this, everyone's expressions turned gloomy. There's no way they could spend all of this money now. They can only watch as this money becomes moldy and loses value.

Deng Qiqi was silent for a moment and said, "Let's go out and buy something with this money."

Huang Zhihui sighed, "We can't buy anything. Although there are purchase restrictions, the government distributes very few supplies every day. Many people queue for days and still can't buy anything."

Shi Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Besides the government, there are people selling food and supplies. These supplies are also salvaged from the water, and the price of rice is four times higher than the official price. If we really want to spend this money, we can try to buy food from these suppliers."

When Huang Qian heard this, he took a deep breath and complained. "Why don't they rob people? What kind of rice sells for 2,000 yuan per kilogram?"
