Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies - Chapter 62

Chapter 62: Army Deployment
There is no shortage of supplies in Yao Ran’s space, but she needs to go out and practice her survival skills and combat abilities. In the future, natural disasters will be more severe than floods and heavy rains.

In addition, she needs to collect information about the organization and seek revenge. For now, Yao Ran is still waiting for Lan Guanghui to come to her. He is the only person she knows who has a clue about the organization.

At the same time, she also needs to prepare for the incoming extreme cold and the collapse of order and human society. Yao Ran cannot wait to die in her apartment, so she should continue to improve her skills.

After dinner, Yao Ran began the evening training on her wood element and water element abilities. She trained until the wood energy and water energy were exhausted and managed to harvest a bunch of vegetables, fruits, potatoes, and mushrooms.

Today is indeed very tiring, but also very fulfilling.

The next day, Yao Ran woke up because of the commotion outside. She lay on the bed for a while before getting out of bed and opening the window curtains.

She took out her binoculars and looked outside. There were noticeably more motorboats and rubber boats outside than yesterday.

Whether they tasted the success of robbery or were forced by the situation to come out to search for supplies, many people came out today, and most of them came out to cause trouble. Without the Internet and surveillance, the darkest side of human nature is slowly being released from the shadows.

There were all kinds of noises. Cries and howls that seemed to be mixed with the gunshots.

‘Gunshots? Who dares to shoot in broad daylight?’

Yao Ran paused and listened intently to what was going on outside. Seconds later, she heard another gunshot. Indeed, she didn’t hear it wrong.

Yao Ran was a little curious, so she went into her space to wash up and then left her apartment to see what happened. When she walked down from the 20th floor, she saw the old lady from yesterday.

In the corridor on the 19th floor, besides the old lady, several people were talking together. One of them had just come back from outside and was telling the others what had just happened.

As soon as Yao Ran walked down the stairs, she heard the man say, “The soldiers just killed someone.”

Yao Ran was not surprised when she heard that man’s words, but the old lady and others gasped in shock.

The old lady lowered her voice and asked in disbelief, “Really? How could a soldier kill someone?”

The man came close to the old lady and said, “Grandma Quan, don’t you know that the government sent out the army yesterday?”

Grandma Quan shook her head and said worriedly, “I don’t know. Yuanwei hasn’t come back yet, so we have no way to find out about it.”

Hearing this, the man and the two middle-aged women looked at each other for a moment.

One of the middle-aged women patted Grandma Quan’s hand and said, “Auntie, don’t worry too much. Your grandson works for the government. He will be fine.”

The other younger woman nodded and added, “Sister Hu is right. Yuanwei should be fine.”

After they calmed Grandma Quan, the man continued, “Anyway, we’d better not go out these days. It’s too dangerous outside.”

Grandma Quan and the two women looked worried, but they nodded at that man’s words and returned to their apartment. After listening to their brief conversation, Yao Ran canceled her plan to go out and returned to the 20th floor.

She stood on the balcony and observed the outside situation with binoculars. After a while, she felt hungry and took out a few pieces of scallion pancakes and a cup of soy milk from the space.

After yesterday’s chaotic incident in the supermarket, the military and political departments promptly adjusted their strategies and decided to dispatch the army to maintain stability.

Unlike the police, the military does not hesitate to use firearms because their mission is to maintain the stability and safety of the country.

When Yao Ran stayed in Haicheng City in her previous life, the military also dispatched two troops from Juncheng City to Haicheng City to maintain public safety. At that time, the military used iron-blooded tactics and executed the largest group of thugs in Haicheng City, stabilizing the situation in just a few days.

Looking at the current situation in Juncheng City, it seems that the military had taken over earlier than she thought. However, unlike Juncheng City, Haicheng City did not have troops stationed there, which delayed the takeover process.

Yao Ran observed for a while and saw soldiers in green military uniforms patrolling on motorboats with live ammunition. Gunshots rang out occasionally throughout the morning, and the world felt much quieter.

While Yao Ran was practicing her wood and water abilities at home, Shi Xuan was busy dismantling and repairing the gas stoves they found yesterday. After working for hours, he finally repaired a few gas stoves using spare parts from other gas stoves that couldn’t be repaired anymore.

Shi Xuan was overjoyed and smiled, “I will give these gas stoves to Captain and Miss Yao.”

After washing his dirty hands, Shi Xuan took two gas stoves and knocked on the door of unit 2002.

A moment later, Long Yu opened the door, saw Shi Xuan holding two gas stoves, and asked, “Have you fixed them?”

Shi Xuan nodded, handed him a gas stove, and said, “Captain, we would like to treat you to dinner and thank you for finding us a place to live.”

Long Yu nodded, “Mhm. I will go later.”

The two chatted for a while, and then Shi Xuan knocked on the door of unit 2003. Yao Ran heard the knock and went to open the door.

Seeing Shi Xuan, she smiled and asked, “Shi Xuan, do you need anything?”
