Apocalypse: After Being Reborn, I Stocked Up on All Supplies

Jiang Yan calculated that she still had about twenty-two or twenty-three billion left, so she felt quite confident.

However, when converted to US dollars, that was just over three hundred million.

She didn't know how much the weapons would cost; she was a novice in that area and could only make decisions once she was abroad.

During this time, she had used every available channel to exchange a few million US dollars.

The black card also supported automatic currency conversion, but the consumption limit was only about four million.

The rest required some special methods.

On June 1st, Children's Day, after collecting thirty thousand servings of ready-made food ordered from five-star hotels, Michelin restaurants, various time-honored brands, as well as barbecue and hot pot restaurants, and eight thousand cups of milk tea with assorted flavors from several famous tea shops, she boarded an international flight bound for Maple Country.

Jiang Yan was originally a travel and food blogger, running all over the country and abroad.

Her passport was full of visas from many countries, all processed for one-year multiple-entry.

She chose Maple Country first because she needed to buy a large quantity of goods there, and the visa for that country was about to expire.

As for the few other countries she needed to visit, their visas were still valid, and she could take her time.

Although her physical condition had been greatly improved by Space during this time, the continuous travel, coupled with the more than ten hours of international long-haul flight, still left her somewhat fatigued.

Fortunately, she didn't really need to worry about jet lag anymore.

Jiang Yan's destination in Maple Country was Wen Village.

There was a large Chinese community there, and it was adjacent to Beautiful Country, where many resources could be obtained.

However, the first thing she did after getting off the plane was to buy a second-hand fruit brand smartphone and a few anonymous SIM cards.

Then, she found a coffee shop, ordered an iced Americano, and logged onto some well-known domestic websites to anonymously post a warning:

#Attention!! A natural disaster will strike in early August, advise all citizens to stock up on supplies in advance!!#

Below the post, she also included some simple advice on what families could store.

The post was successfully sent quickly.

Whether it would be deleted or whether anyone would believe it was no longer her concern.

Although it seemed somewhat laissez-faire, she planned to persist in posting such anonymous warnings to her compatriots every day during her time abroad.

She had originally wanted to do this while she was still in China, but she feared causing unnecessary trouble and hence gave up the idea.

After completing these tasks and eating something simple, Jiang Yan began her day of shopping and sightseeing in a foreign country.

The warehouse had been remotely arranged from back home, and she had made plans and notified vendors in advance for the procurement sites in case they needed to adjust their stock on short notice.

Maple Country, known for its cold climate, was famous for its winter gear and outdoor survival items. It also boasted the world's largest fishing industry and was rich in timber.

Additionally, the country sold the world's lightest mosquito helicopters, which could be mastered after only fifteen hours of actual flying time.

Jiang Yan had already earned her private pilot license and, as a travel blogger, had even filmed several episodes of her flying planes.

Now, handling this small aircraft was a breeze.

Speaking of cold-weather gear, Russia produced good winter clothing as well and boasted a significant store of natural gas.

However, with daily "bang, bang, bang" there, it wasn't very safe, so she abandoned the idea of going.

As for fishing, Japan had the most and the best quality.

Sadly, that was in the past. Since they had shamelessly started dumping radioactive water, she wouldn't buy from them even if it were free.

Jiang Yan first went to buy winter clothing.

Padded jackets, cotton clothes, fleece clothing, outdoor T-shirts, windbreakers, hiking boots, outdoor mid-calf boots, snow boots, waterproof jackets and pants, and so on—she bought a variety of each in different sizes, two hundred of each category in total.

She also acquired three thousand units of other matching items, such as balaclavas, shoe ice grips, Martens boots, anti-slip chains, goggles, and ear warmers.

She had already bought a lot of winter clothing in China, but the same brands were cheaper here, and she ended up spending over ten million dollars in total.

Mainly because down jackets were expensive, starting at over ten thousand each, and adding up the rest, it wasn't a small amount of money.

After clothes, she bought a bunch of seafood.

Most seafood in Maple Country was pollution-free, and the waters from Japan hadn't reached this area yet, so many seafood items had a great taste, especially raw.

She bought one thousand kilograms of each type: lobsters, abalones, king crabs, geoducks, tunas, yellow croakers, star groupers, sea cucumbers, salmons, and so on. She also purchased one thousand kilograms of other regular seafood items.

She bought five hundred bottles each of ketchup and chili sauce.

When buying timber at a lumberyard, whether it was a sudden thought of "Bald Strong"—a character from animation—or a spur-of-the-moment decision, she also bought three logging machines, two grapplers, one timber cutter, and three excavators.

After purchasing five hundred tons of timber and two mosquito helicopters, Jiang Yan directly traveled from Wen Village to Beautiful Country.

Beautiful Country was a key destination on her trip.

After all, weapons, yachts, helicopters, amphibious vessels—all according to her stockpiling plan—were to be procured there.

Although some states in Beautiful Country didn't prohibit guns, purchasing weapons through legal channels still required documentation.

Jiang Yan had practiced with real guns at a shooting range several times with friends, but it was just practice.

She was neither a citizen there nor a green card holder, so she naturally couldn't have a gun permit.

However, when she first went abroad, her parents, concerned about her personal safety, had commissioned an organization to find her a few top-notch bodyguards.

This organization was said to have extensive connections.

She naturally went straight to the agency manager of this organization.

Although referred to as an organization, in Beautiful Country, it had a reputation for dealing with both the legal and the underworld.

It was rumored they even had a private army and engaged in some transactions not allowed in the open, such as being the hidden backer of the dark web, and so on.

None of these were Jiang Yan's concerns, as long as they could secure the weapons for her.

The reason she was reluctant to face those dodgy weapons suppliers was that it would be the same as handing over her wallet and head to a tiger.

She had previous dealings with this organization, which had a decent reputation and word-of-mouth in the industry.

All she had to pay was a substantial brokerage fee.

Compared to her life, she was more than willing to pay this money.

Of course, the organization was also helpful in exchanging the bigger sums of US dollars.

Before leaving the country, Jiang Yan, following their instructions, opened several securities accounts in HK and transferred fifteen ambitious targets in advance through various channels.

The weapons were soon delivered to the warehouse she had designated.
