Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies - Chapter 125

Chapter 125: Heartbroken
Quan Yuanwei felt heartbroken when he climbed into the building from the 10th floor and saw the messy condition of the office and the broken equipment and machines. He wasted no time and quickly climbed the stairs to the 12th floor.

The door to the materials room was pried open, and various things were scattered on the floor. The shelves were cluttered, and some even collapsed.

Quan Yuanwei took a flashlight, hurriedly opened his backpack, and picked up things from the ground and shelves. The materials in the Institute of Physics are useless for ordinary people, but for people like Quan Yuanwei, they are treasures.

The materials room was a mess, and many things were broken. He searched the entire room but couldn’t find many useful things.

Quan Yuanwei came out and said to Shi Xuan, “There are still some components that have not been found. I am going to the laboratory to see if I can find them.”

“Alright.” Shi Xuan nodded and followed him with Yao Ran.

There are several laboratories in this building, and Quan Yuanwei searched them one by one. When he saw that most of the equipment was broken, he dismantled it, removing the parts that were still usable, and took them away.

Seeing that she couldn’t help, Yao Ran said, “I will go look around and see if I can find anything.”

Shi Xuan was a little worried and wanted to go with her, but he couldn’t leave Quan Yuanwei alone. Between Yao Ran and Quan Yuanwei, he knew who could protect themselves and who needed his protection.

After making his choice, Shi Xuan said, “Be careful.”

“Mhm.”

Yao Ran went upstairs and looked around. All the wooden furniture, doors, and anything that could be used as firewood had been dismantled and looted. When she saw a few plastic planting pots left in the corner of the room, she took them into the space.

The computers and equipment in this building contain valuable knowledge and information. Yao Ran may not need it now, but someone may need it in the future, so she took them all.

After walking around several floors, she collected many things that others didn’t want, as well as things on display in the exhibition hall.

The scientific research products were so advanced that even Yao Ran couldn’t recognize them. Since she had enough space to store them, she just took them all with her.

Returning to the 12th floor, Yao Ran saw that Quan Yuanwei had assembled the fishing machine. Looking at this small but complex structure, she could only marvel at Quan Yuanwei’s skill.

After waiting for another five minutes, Quan Yuanwei finally got the fishing machine ready. He turned it on, and it made a humming sound. The moment the machine was turned on, Yao Ran felt uncomfortable and took a step back with a frown.

Quan Yuanwei noticed her little movements, turned off the machine, and said, “The water was too deep, so I increased the frequency. This frequency is harmless to humans, but the fish can’t stand it and will faint.”

“However, due to the increase in frequency, more power will be consumed. A fully charged battery can only last up to three hours.”

He handed it to Shi Xuan and asked, “Where should we go fishing?”

Shi Xuan put away the fishing machine and said, “You will know tonight.”

Seeing that he didn’t intend to tell him, Quan Yuanwei became anxious that Shi Xuan might go back on his words.

He was also afraid that he would not get anything later, so he asked again, “Are there a lot of fish there? Do you want me to bring more people to help?”

Since he came back one week ago, Quan Yuanwei has gone out with other residents several times, but he can only bring back a little bit of firewood and some daily necessities.

But unlike him, the people living on the 20th floor are all capable.

Every time they come back from outside, they bring a lot of supplies. Last time, because of Lu Hong’s obstruction, he discovered that they actually found meat.

In a time when people can’t even find a piece of bread, people on the 20th floor can eat meat. This shows how capable they are. As long as he can join their team and work hard, he believes he can support his grandparents.

Quan Yuanwei wanted to use this opportunity to work more and obtain more supplies. No matter what, he must find something to eat in these two days. Otherwise, his grandparents may starve to death.

Yao Ran and Shi Xuan didn’t know how many fish were in Anyuan Reservoir, but it was huge, so there must be a lot of fish there.

Jia Xiang is injured and needs Huang Zhihui and Deng Qiqi to accompany her. There are not enough people to go fishing. Since Quan Yuanwei can recruit more workers for them, as long as the people he recruits can be trusted and do not cause trouble, Yao Ran will not refuse.

After calculating the pros and cons, she nodded, “If you want, you can bring someone. However, if that person makes trouble or tells others about our plans, we will not be polite.”

Quan Yuanwei knew she was serious with her words and said, “Don’t worry, if the people I lead cause trouble, I will handle it myself. You can do whatever you want to me as compensation.”

Yao Ran was very satisfied with his answer and said, “We will meet at nine o’clock tonight.”

“Alright.”

Before leaving, Quan Yuanwei took away many things that might be useful to him in the future.

He came well-prepared and brought many plastic bags. When he left the Institute of Physics, he almost filled the motorboat with the components he found.

Seeing this, Shi Xuan and Yao Ran said nothing. Since they didn’t understand and couldn’t use those things, they just let Quan Yuanwei take them all away.

By the time they returned, it was almost lunchtime. Yao Ran and Shi Xuan helped Quan Yuanwei move the garbage bags filled with metals to the 19th floor.
