So, under Cao Lei's lobbying, Bai Jing can finally act alone. He had some stores in mind from touring around yesterday. Around this county there were a total of seven gas stations, and he did not intentionally have Wang Xuebing drive aimlessly everywhere. 

In his mind he thought as such, and in his actions he hesitated not. Bai Jing drove quickly to the gas station. With the "approval to buy" permission from his old man, and limits to buying oil were not a problem. He went to a gas station bought 10 barrels of gasoline and diesel, storing them into the trunk, and then finding a remote place to send them into the hidden dimension, he then went to the next stop and so repeated the process again and again. 

Finishing those seven gas stations, it was almost 11:00 am. Feeling slightly hungry, Bai Jing contemplated for a while, but he did not go to expensive hotels, and instead drove to the street food to sample the foods. If he had one where the taste was not bad, he would then have twenty packs. The hidden dimension could keep food fresh, and having these side dishes at the apocalypse, they would become extreme gourmet. 

Then he rented a large warehouse. Money gets you anywhere, and the time was not even close to 1:00pm after these chores.  

Coming to the machinery trading market, Bai Jing was puzzled. While the idea was plump, the reality was skinny. How did the generator work but after being tangled for a while, Bai Jing simply thought, the hell! Buy first, then figure it out later. He right now lacked in everything but money. 

He bought two each of the various models of water generators, and then he bought a few solar generators, then the seeder from the threshing machine, a bulldozer, oil extractor, harvesters, digging machines, and cotton machines. As long as he could think of it and it was on promotion, he bought it in sets of two. Living through the barrenness of the apocalypse, his favorite thing right now was to prepare. Anyways, there was a lot of storage space, so no matter how much material he had, he would not worry.

Directly reporting the warehouse address, he then went to the agricultural market. He bought trucks and trucks of vegetables and fruits, and Bai Jing also bought a lot of pork, chicken and beef, a variety of seasonings, almost emptying the stores' inventory. 

Arriving at the daily necessities wholesale store, shampoo, detergent, towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, pots and pans, toilet paper, and even underwear, he purchased more than 100 boxes all at once. There was still bedding, bed sheets, pillows and the rest. Whatever he saw, he bought.. 

Although he wanted to buy some chickens, ducks and sheep at the countryside, thinking it over once more, he just gave up. Those materials had not been organized in the hidden dimension, and there was no fencing. He did not want those animals go running around destroying the environment.

But thinking as far as here, he went to the seed market, not only just pre-packaged varieties of grain, but he also bought grass seeds, herb seeds, vegetable seeds and a variety of seasonings seeds. 

Bai Jing had to admit that he was a lazy person. If he kept chickens and ducks, he did not have time to feed them every day, but they ate grass anyways. He intended to isolate two acres of land, plant some grass and vegetables, or something so that those animals could have natural growth. Additionally plants of the hidden dimension grew faster than on the outside, harvesting one while the other grew back before those were eaten. He thought two acres of land should be enough for those animals to eat and to live around. 

Bai Jing was actually very fortunate that his hidden dimension had an automatic purification function. Garbage or the like would disappear in less than a day without a trace, or else, if he raised these animals, he would feel really troubled, for they were too dirty and also stank.
