Chapter 30
The daylight was fading, and An Zhiren came back passing this way. Only then did they stand up together and head home.
Perhaps she was not in the mood. Zhou Nan made this meal quite casually.
An MeiYun did not even come back for dinner. When An JingZhi asked, Zhou Nan said she was in a bad mood and went out, then never came back.
An JingZhi also felt that she was probably throwing a little tantrum, after all, she often did this before, so he did not take it too seriously.
After the meal, An ZhiXia voluntarily went to tidy up the bowls and chopsticks. She did not feel that she should not do this, after all, she also ate the meals at home.
But doing housework just the second day after coming back, Zhou Nan did not even have a polite remark. An ZhiXia knew she still resented her in her heart.
Seeing the wrong atmosphere at home, Liu Ling did not dare to speak up either, just when helping to tidy up the bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen, she told An ZhiXia to go out, and she would tidy up the rest.
But An ZhiXia did not do so, but cleaned the chopping board while she was washing the dishes.
"ZhiXia, your mother is just in a bad mood these two days. When she gets over it, it will be fine. Don't take it to heart." Liu Ling thought for a while and still persuaded her.
"I know. Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law." But there were some things she could understand but not accept.
An ZhiAng gave her the 150 dollars and told her to keep it safe, saying he often lost his pocket money when he was a child.
An ZhiXia knew about this. When An MeiYun was a child, she stole his hard-earned pocket money and bought a lot of candy for the children in the neighborhood, making the others all listen to her.
When An ZhiAng confronted her, she still denied it. Then the two had a fight.
The parents were biased, which made An ZhiAng so angry that he lived at his grandfather's for half a month without coming back. It was An JingZhi who made up his pocket money before coaxing him back.
But ever since then, he hated his sister An MeiYun, especially the more his parents favored her, the more he hated her. Seeing his still resentful expression when telling her to keep the money safe, An ZhiXia felt warm-hearted.
Her brothers were all very generous to her.
Although she had a whole space and an Interdimensional Trading Device for shopping, she really did not have a penny to use in the real world.
An ZhiXia took a shower in the bathroom, changed into the new clothes she bought today, washed her dirty clothes and hung them to dry in the yard before going back to her room.
After locking the door, she entered the space.
On the trading device interface, there was actually a message from the post-apocalyptic plane.
"I'm Not a Zombie": "Thank you, little rich lady, for the seafood. But besides seafood, I need more grains and canned meat products. I look forward to trading with you. I've also given you a gift to meet you and hope you'll like it."
An ZhiXia received the other party's gift, which turned out to be a large gold bracelet!
She understood it immediately.
In her previous life, she had also read many post-apocalyptic novels. From the other party's name, she could judge that the post-apocalyptic world she was in was probably zombie-themed.
In the zombie-infested post-apocalyptic world, everyone was in danger, and all kinds of industrial and agricultural production had long ceased. Even the grains they ate could only be produced with superpowers by plant-based superhumans.
Under these circumstances, food was scarce, while impractical items like this were worthless instead.
The other party's avatar lit up, meaning she was online.
In just a moment, another message came: "Hello, I need a lot of food. Can we trade? I can provide you with gold, silver, machinery, appliances, clothing, fabrics, etc., except for food..."
"I'm Not a Zombie" said a lot at once and showed her urgent need for food.
Maybe it was her first time doing business, or maybe she really needed it too badly.
"Little Rich Lady of the Times": "Hello, I can provide you with a lot of food supplies. I can exchange them for what you mentioned, and if you collect anything you don't need outside, you can also give it to me."
An ZhiXia packaged all the food the aquaculture tycoon gave her yesterday and sent it to "I'm Not a Zombie". She also gave her some of the grains harvested yesterday to show her sincerity.
"Little Rich Lady of the Times": "This is all I have for now. Do you have any requirements for the instant food you want? I need time to purchase it back before I can give it to you." At noon in the post-apocalyptic world, the weather was extremely hot.
After emptying all the edible items behind the shelves of the department store, the girl had not eaten anything for a whole day.
She got a jade pendant two days ago. After being stained with blood, it activated the Interdimensional Trading Device.
Maybe because there was a crack in the jade pendant, the trading device was also incomplete. Not only did it not have any friends, but adding friends was also impossible.
Fortunately, the trading device itself came with housing to rest and ten storage slots to store things, which was still very useful.
Just as she entered the trading device again, she suddenly discovered that she had an additional friend who gave her a lot of seafood.
Ever since the apocalypse came, some humans turned into zombies while asleep, some awakened superpowers, and all plants and animals mutated too. Some mutated monsters also came ashore from the oceans.
Humans had to face not only these, but also the extremely adverse weather changes. For example, right now, it was still 30-40 degrees hot enough to kill people, but at night, it would turn into extremely cold air.
Under such weather changes, ordinary crops simply could not grow. Mutated crops were also toxic. Human survival had become extremely difficult.
Having just been through fierce battles, she was already starving and almost exhausted. She hurriedly used her fire abilities to roast two big shrimps, which at least relieved her hunger a little.
After eating, she hurried to reply: "No requirements. Anything edible is fine. The more the better. I hope it can be delivered as soon as possible. Or you can deliver in batches, that works too."
She had just replied when the other party sent her a lot of food supplies. An ZhiXia was also startled here, and then several items were sent in succession.
She accepted them all. Many gold and silver jewelry, watches, bags, and even several glass cabinets containing gold and silver jewelry were packed and sent over, as well as a large number of clothes, various appliances, and daily necessities...
An ZhiXia had reason to suspect that the other party was currently conducting a major raid, because she could not store them on her side, so she had moved everything to her side.
Sure enough, "I'm Not a Zombie" messaged afterwards: "I'm currently in a mall with many of these supplies. I can give you all of them if you need them. The food can be delivered later. Just let me know the quantity."
These things were completely useless to "I'm Not a Zombie". Her space was not big. She just wanted to store some useful items. Now the city center had been occupied by large numbers of zombies and monsters. If she did not take these items, they would be destroyed anyway, so she might as well give them to the other party to gain favor.
She didn't believe that with so many supplies sent over, the other party would still be stingy with her.
An ZhiXia was naturally more than happy to take them. "Of course you can. In the future, anything you don't need over there, you can collect and give to me. Let's not talk about how much supplies to exchange. Just tell me how much food you need directly. My food will always be reserved for your side first."
An ZhiXia had a whole space, and the space was not small at all. Also, the time flow was very fast, equivalent to many days outside.
She was fully confident that her space's output could keep up with "I'm Not a Zombie"'s needs. Besides, she still had the aquaculture tycoon as her backup. She was not worried at all.
