Along the way, Zhang Linlin and Chu Man put the supplies into their pockets. Chu Man couldn't help but marvel at Chen Yuanyuan's comprehensive equipment. In comparison, she looked like a primary school student on a spring outing.
"I used to occasionally form a group with my friends to play simulated field battles in the countryside, so I have a lot of equipment at home." Chen Yuanyuan used the name of WARGAME to explain away.
After arriving in Kui District, under the guidance of Chu Man, we found the industrial building where Chu Man bought handmade soap supplies.
"Hey, the door is locked, what should I do?" Chu Man said.
"Call the locksmith, Master Zhang, it's up to you." Chen Yuanyuan picked up the lock and took a look. This level of locking was easy for Zhang Linlin.
"Come on! It costs RMB 30 to come to the door, RMB 80 to open the door, and the friendly price is RMB 100. It's done!" Zhang Linlin had expected this situation for a long time. She had already found a handy tool among the car repair tools last night. After picking it a few times, she heard a crisp sound. There was a sharp unlocking sound.
"Linlin, you are so amazing, you can also pick locks!" Chu Man was stunned when she saw Zhang Linlin's unique skills for the first time.
"I'll teach you how to open a lock, and you'll teach me how to make a lock. How about that?" Zhang Linlin said happily.
"No problem, haha." Chu Man said happily.
The three of them walked into the elevator lobby. The lobby of the industrial building was renovated cleanly and neatly, which was completely opposite to the dilapidated exterior wall.
Light industry developed vigorously in Xiangcheng in the 1970s and 1980s, but after the 1990s, most manufacturers moved north. Most of the previous industrial buildings were renovated and transformed into offices and warehouses for small and medium-sized enterprises. The revitalization of industrial buildings is also a major feature of Xiangcheng's planning. .
Chen Yuanyuan used her mobile phone to take a photo of the sign in the elevator lobby. This building has twenty-three floors.
The three of them understood the distribution of companies on each floor to facilitate targeted searches for needed supplies.
The elevator had long been out of power, and the three of them climbed the stairs to the sixteenth floor and finally arrived at the handicraft supplies wholesale store.
"You two are in such good physical condition that you can walk up to the sixteenth floor without being out of breath!" Chu Man was so tired that he squatted on the stairs. Chen Yuanyuan and Zhang Linlin were only sweating a little.
"You should exercise more, young man!" Chen Yuanyuan said with a smile.
"Yes, what year are you two in?" Chu Man asked.
"We are all born in 2000, what about you?" Zhang Linlin said.
"I'm 98, I thought you were about the same as me!" Chu Man recalled that when she saw Chen Yuanyuan, she called her Sister Yuanyuan, which was really embarrassing.
Chu Man is the Xiaojiabiyu type, while Chen Yuanyuan is the glamorous and majestic type, and she also feels quite aura, so at first glance it seems that Chen Yuanyuan is the oldest among the three.
"Haha, it doesn't matter, let's go in!" After Zhang Linlin said that, she took Chu Man and went to the handicraft wholesale store to search.
Chu Man and Zhang Linlin also like to do handicrafts. When they saw that the entire store was full of different types of raw materials and tools, they immediately opened their backpacks and searched.
Chen Yuanyuan walked around the store and found nothing of interest, and it was not convenient for Chu Manzai to collect things in the space, so she told the two of them to take a look around and meet in the lobby at twelve o'clock.
"Be careful yourself. If anything happens, call me via walkie-talkie." Zhang Linlin said.
Although there are still four hours until twelve o'clock, there is still plenty of time, but there are two households on each floor of the 23rd floor of the industrial building, so there is no time to visit them all.
Chen Yuanyuan looked at the photo of the signboard just now, circled some places of interest, and then went straight down from the 21st floor.
The two floors above were also offices. Although there was drinking water and some snacks in the office, searching was too time-consuming, so Chen Yuanyuan chose to ignore it.
When they arrived at the door of a clothing store, there was no locksmith Zhang Linlin. Chen Yuanyuan took out a crowbar from the space and pried the door open with all her strength.
A roll of cloth that is taller than a person is stacked one on top of another. There are silk, cotton, polyester, satin, woolen and other colorful fabrics.
Chen Yuanyuan didn't pick and choose, and just put all the fabrics into the space.
Although there are a lot of clothes in the space, there are also old and worn-out ones. In addition to repairing patches, you can also make simple things such as curtains and tablecloths.
Zhang Linlin majors in fashion design, and so much fabric will be enough for her to play with for a while.
Along the way, Chen Yuanyuan ignored the shops of little value in order to save time.
In addition to daily necessities and food stores, Chen Yuanyuan will also go in and search for some unique merchants.
Fur export shop, tea wholesale shop, craft beer workshop, fire supplies warehouse, imported snack shop, travel supplies wholesale, leather craft workshop, outdoor supplies store, etc.
Most of the stores in the industrial building are specialty stores. Although the styles of the goods are older and not as many as the new ones in some retail stores, they are all-inclusive and complete.
Chen Yuanyuan walked along the way to the sixteenth floor. The two of them had already left the handicraft store. Chen Yuanyuan went in and swept away everything they had not taken away.
Along the way, there were several door locks that had been unlocked by Zhang Linlin, and Chen Yuanyuan also saved a lot of effort.
What made Chen Yuanyuan's eyes brighten was that she didn't expect there to be medical supplies suppliers here.
Although there are no large hospital equipment, in addition to some common surgical equipment, blood pressure machines, wheelchairs, and medical beds, there are also ultrasound and electrocardiogram instruments.
When Chen Yuanyuan walked to the eighth floor, she saw five or six cardboard boxes at the stairs and heard the conversation between the two people.
"Ah! I really want it. This ham is so delicious!" Zhang Linlin said.
"Why don't you get a small one? I'm afraid I won't be able to lift it later," Chu Man said.
Chen Yuanyuan saw that it was difficult for them to pick up a bunch of things, so she walked back to the ninth floor and entered the space, where she took out the suitcase she had just collected at the travel goods store.
I chose eight suitcases of different sizes and packed them one by one like matryoshka doll trays.
After leaving the space, Chen Yuanyuan walked to the eighth floor with two large suitcases, one on the left and one on the right, and called out to the two of them.
"Yuanyuan, what did you collect?" Zhang Linlin asked when she saw the two big boxes in Chen Yuanyuan's hands.
"There is nothing good in the upper floors. I guess you must have taken a lot, so I packed a few suitcases for you." Chen Yuanyuan said.
Zhang Linlin and Chu Man saw a pile of suitcases and immediately stepped forward to get the suitcases.
Seeing that there was only half an hour left before twelve o'clock, Chen Yuanyuan planned to divide the work and cooperate to speed up the search process.
Chen Yuanyuan was responsible for searching for supplies, while Chu Man was responsible for carrying the supplies to the car.
Zhang Linlin first went to the store selected by Chen Yuanyuan to open the locks. After all the locks were opened, she joined in the moving work.
After arranging the work, Chen Yuanyuan took her suitcase and entered the shop on the 8th floor. After seeing the two people leaving, she selected the supplies and put them in the suitcase while putting the rest into the space.
With the division of labor and cooperation, the efficiency was much faster than before. In just half an hour, Chen Yuanyuan cleared the third to eighth floors.
When they reached the second floor, Chu Man and Zhang Linlin had already finished carrying the supplies and joined Chen Yuanyuan in searching for supplies.
Chen Yuanyuan saw new Chinese furniture for sale on the second floor. The material was moldy and insect-proof. Unfortunately, Chu Man could only give up and just watched helplessly.
The three of them returned outdoors and felt particularly happy when they saw the van filled to the brim with supplies.
