Since June 15th, Xu Dong has begun to receive various express deliveries one after another, sometimes there are hundreds of packages a day, and soon there is no place to put his feet in the yard.

In order to sort out these packages, Xu Dong was so tired that he almost couldn't straighten his waist.

On June 18, the purchased vacuum machine arrived, and not all merchants had the ability to provide vacuum packaging, so Xu Dong simply bought one.

Do it yourself, have plenty of food and clothing.

It wasn't until June 25 that Xu Dong sealed all the goods, moved them all to the warehouse, and placed them in different categories.

The next day, Xu Dong returned to Luyang again, reunited with his family for three days, and then went north for the fourth time.

This time, Xu Dong planned to stay for a while longer, under the pretext that the business volume in the capital had skyrocketed, and the company needed his help to establish a branch, and this "business trip" would take at least a month or two.

Yang Lina and Xu's mother did not doubt it, because during this time, Xu Dong only took 180,000 yuan from his family for business commissions.

Being able to get so much commission is also a matter of frequent business trips.

……

On the last day of June, Xu Dong placed a large order with the supplier again, this time focusing on the four categories of tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea.

Xu Dong himself is also a smoker, but after the ten years in his previous life, his addiction to smoking has long been quit.

However, the shelf life of cigarettes is okay, up to four or five years, it is a sought-after product for gift-giving, and it is also quite popular on the black market, so he directly placed an order for 50 boxes.

This alone cost more than 3 million yuan.

Next is wine, which has a longer shelf life, and many spirits have almost no shelf life.

The longer it passes, the more fragrant the sake becomes.

Xu Dongtong has ordered a batch of several major brands of strong liquor in China, both high-end and mid-end, including Moutai.

In total, there were almost 3,500 boxes, and a total of more than 8 million yuan was spent.

In addition, Xu Dong also ordered 100 boxes of various wines, all of which are suitable for long-term storage, looking for big foreign brands, and spent more than 100,000 yuan.

Next it was the turn of tea, Xu Dong usually drank green tea, and he was not very familiar with other teas.

After some communication and inquiry, in the end he only ordered 1,000 kilograms of tea bricks, mainly Pu'er tea and ordinary tea bricks.

The shelf life of these tea bricks is generally as long as more than ten years, which is easy to store, durable and drinkable, and very cost-effective.

Finally, there is the bulk of this purchase - sugar!

The more famine there were, the more people craved two things, one was fat and the other was sugar.

About 70% of the energy required by the human body is provided by sugar, which is also an important substance for forming tissues and protecting liver function.

In the future, the grain will be fully controlled by the state, Xu Dong will not be blended, and the small-scale transaction will be okay, but the scale will definitely be investigated, and the risk is too great.

As for fat, that is, meat and cooking oil, the shelf life is a hard flaw, and Xu Dong does not plan to participate in it.

Not only does sugar have a very long shelf life, but the state is not very strict, which gives Xu Dong room to get involved.

In the future, sugar will be comparable to grain, a hard currency that can be liquidated at any time, and it will have a price for a long time.

Therefore, Xu Dong plans to stock up on a batch of white granulated sugar as ballast for the warehouse to deal with various crises that may erupt.

However, the amount of this purchase was too large, and Xu Dong contacted several suppliers, and only then did he make up the amount of 1,000 tons, with a total value of about 7.2 million yuan.

After a week, all the tobacco, alcohol, tea and sugar ordered this time arrived, and the yard was full again, and Xu Dong even had to rent a temporary warehouse.

This time, it took Xu Dong more than a month to summarize everything.

At this point, the entire warehouse on the second floor has been fully filled, and even the warehouse on the second floor has only about half of the space left.

This situation made Xu Dong smile stupidly.

As the saying goes: if you have food in your hands, you don't panic in your heart.

So far, Xu Dong has purchased some commodities that are more suitable for long-term storage, and the hoarding task has been completed for more than half of the time, and the next amount is not so much.

On August 8, Xu Dong purchased a batch of household appliances, including televisions, refrigerators, washing machines, air conditioners, soybean milk machines, juicers, razors, and kitchen and bathroom appliances, etc., and bought more than a dozen copies of each for backup.

Xu Dong remembered that in his previous life, after the catastrophe, these household appliances were very difficult to buy, and the price was extremely expensive, so it was better to stock up on a batch now to avoid trouble.

In addition, Xu Dong has hoarded hundreds of electronic products such as computers, mobile phones, game consoles, radios and tablets, and even his grandchildren's share has been taken into account.

In addition, Xu Dong also purchased a household rice mill and flour mill, which are used to process rice and wheat.

Even, he also found a set of equipment for making tofu, and the store came with a full set of video teaching materials, claiming that he would be able to watch it.

On August 10, there were suddenly two more cars in the courtyard, one was a 10-seater Mercedes-Benz luxury business car, after all, the family has a large population, and only a ten-seater can fit it.

The other is a small van with a fresh-keeping and freezing function, which is mainly used to transport goods, and it is more convenient to enter and exit.

Both cars were fuel vehicles, and a total of 7.3 million yuan was spent.

Why choose a fuel vehicle?

First, because the technology of electric vehicles is not mature at this time, the battery has to be replaced every few years, which is very inconvenient;

Second, in the future, the supply of fuel is more than electricity, for example, in the previous life of Luyang, in order to ensure food production, almost every day to limit electricity.

And don't forget, when a solar flare erupts, it will cause a global power outage, and it will be more reliable to use fuel vehicles.

On Aug. 12, Xu Dong locked the courtyard door and prepared to drive to an orchard on the outskirts of Yanjing.

The purpose of his trip was not to buy fruit, but to buy a batch of ripe and pure honey.

This honey has a high sugar content, and bacteria cannot survive in such a high sugar environment.

Archaeologists once excavated 3,300-year-old honey inside the pyramids of Egypt and it didn't deteriorate at all.

After arriving at his destination, Xu Dong made a phone call and quickly found the owner of the orchard, and the two parties had met online.

"You're Mr. Xu Dongxu, right?" The orchard owner greeted.

"Yes, yes, I am." Xu Dong nodded, "You're Boss Hu, right?" Fortunately, I will be glad to meet you! ”

Boss Hu didn't waste time, "Let's go, I'll take you to see the honey." ”

The two of them went around and around to the center of the orchard, where seven or eight beehives were placed nearby, and the bee colonies came and went in groups of three or five.

"Boss Hu, what kind of bees do you have here?" Xu Dong asked curiously.

"Italian bees."

"How's the honey production capacity?"

"The honey production capacity is not bad, and the ability to produce royal jelly is also very strong, do you want to have a little more?" Boss Hu promoted it in a timely manner.

Xu Dong shook his head: "No need for the time being, let's talk about it next time!" ”

He checked the information before he came, and the shelf life of royal jelly is very short and has no storage value.

"Oh, that's fine, let's start getting honey now!"

……

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Dong left with more than a dozen bottles of freshly baked honey, the honey was definitely real honey, he saw it squeezed out with his own eyes, but he didn't know if it was mature honey.

However, Boss Hu swore that his family's honey was of good quality and could definitely be stored for several years.
