Chapter VI Procurement and Preparation
Half an hour later, Lu Xun simply sutured the wound at a private clinic and drove to a department store in the city.
The stains on his body have been cleaned with the mineral water found in the off-road vehicle, and the blood-stained jacket has been thrown to the side of the road. Now, except for a pair of somewhat tattered jeans, there is basically nothing unusual about his body.
Lu Xun parked the off-road vehicle on the side of the road, put on his mask and sunglasses, and after thinking for a moment, he folded up the horn steel knife and put it in his arms.
The urban area is still a lively and prosperous scene at this time. Street vendors are still hawking and selling goods. Couples are getting intimate and walking past each other, and the sound of speakers in the shops is still piercing.
[Big promotion! Big promotion! Starting from this month, all customers who enter the store and spend more than 30 yuan...]
Looking at the scene in front of him, Lu Xun felt a trance for a moment. He almost thought that everything he had just experienced was a dream, but soon he woke up.
"Xiaoyu, let's go." Lu Xun knew very well that the peaceful and peaceful scene in front of him would soon come to nothing. It wouldn't be long before disaster and panic would spread to the entire city.
As the first person to know that disaster was coming, he must seize the time to make complete preparations.
As for reminding others…
Sorry, Lu Xun has no such plan.
He doesn't want to reveal his specialness.
And in this case, my well-intentioned reminder will most likely be regarded as spreading rumors. Not only will it not bring any benefit, but it will also cause trouble for myself.
…
Since today is not a weekend, and it is not a sales day, the number of customers in the supermarket is not very large. Lu Xun did not take Lu Xiaoyu to wander around the supermarket, but went directly to the person in charge, claiming that he was the person in charge of a manor.
Someone made a special trip to purchase a batch of goods and handed the other party a purchase list.
Of course, this list was just made on the fly.
In this list, the materials Lu Xun needs to purchase include a large amount of quick-frozen food, seasonings, meat, flour, and various fruits and vegetables that are easy to preserve.
There are even more daily necessities, such as toilet paper, towels, tape, ropes, toiletries, clothing to keep out the cold...
From toothpaste and toothbrushes to portable fuel generators, Lu Xun bought almost everything he could think of and use!
After a simple inventory, the total price of these items alone has exceeded 80,000 yuan.
When the person in charge of the supermarket saw that Lu Xun had purchased such a huge amount, he asked a few more questions. Perhaps he wanted to establish a long-term supply partnership with Lu Xun's so-called "manor" and also gave him two more boxes of cooking oil and fruits.
, and promises to deliver it to your door!
If Lu Xun was asked to spend 80,000 yuan in normal times, he would be heartbroken. After all, he only had a few hundred thousand yuan left in his card. But now, he didn't hesitate at all and swiped his card to settle the bill very neatly, without even going.
Bargain price.
When the doomsday disaster completely strikes, the monetary system will quickly collapse, and money will become the most useless thing in the world.
"Mr. Lu, this is your shopping invoice. Please keep it. I have sent someone to take out the items you purchased from the warehouse. Our special car will arrive in half an hour!" The supervisor smiled and handed over the receipt.
It was handed to Lu Xun, and outside the supermarket door, a six-meter-six-meter freight refrigerated truck was already parked there, and several employees were carrying the goods Lu Xun purchased into the cargo hold.
Lu Xun checked the time. It was now around eight o'clock in the evening. All supplies must be purchased before nine o'clock at the latest!
"Sorry to trouble you!" Lu Xun nodded to the supervisor and left an address for him: "I have something else to do, so please send all the goods here and call me when you get there!"
After a brief exchange between the two parties, Lu Xun took Lu Xiaoyu to his second purchasing point...the drugstore!
Although a large number of medicinal materials are grown on his farm, the procedures for using those medicinal materials are very cumbersome and complicated. Some need to be dried and some need to be stewed, which is not suitable for use in first aid.
He needs to purchase some finished western medicine.
About ten minutes later, Lu Xun returned to the off-road vehicle from the pharmacy, holding a large black backpack in his hand. Every time he moved, the sound of pills clattering could be heard in the backpack.
This time, he spent nearly fifteen thousand yuan at the drugstore.
Of course, most of what he bought were commonly used anti-inflammatory drugs, hemostatic drugs, gauze and sutures for bandaging wounds, etc. As for other drugs with more complex effects, Lu Xun did not dare to use them without a doctor's diagnosis.
Anesthesia and analgesic drugs have always been strictly controlled by the state. Even in hospitals, special certificates are required to obtain them. Pharmacies are not qualified to sell such drugs at all, so Lu Xun couldn't get a bottle of them.
Didn't get it.
However, Lu Xun has alternatives for this type of medicine.
Legend has it that Hua Tuo, a famous doctor in ancient times, used various medicinal materials to prepare Ma Fei Powder, which was the originator of anesthetic drugs. However, because the formula has not been handed down completely, it is still unknown whether Ma Fei San actually exists.
Lu Xun, who has been growing various medicinal materials with his parents since he was a child, has a strong interest in this rumored miraculous medicine. He has made it countless times and wants to completely replicate Ma Fei Powder, although so far there is still no way.
It was successful, but during the preparation process, he discovered that some medicinal materials could indeed reduce the pain when mixed together.
The effect...of course is not as powerful as an anesthetic, but it can at least weaken it by about one-third!
After all the food, medicine, and daily necessities were purchased, Lu Xun drove the off-road vehicle back to the farm.
Daxia has the highest level of control over weapons in the world. Neither firearms nor crossbows can be obtained by a commoner like him. Lu Xun thought for a moment and gave up the idea of purchasing weapons because there were a large number of weapons on the farm itself.
For example, machetes, hand axes and other tools used to prune trees, as well as an electric saw, several steel forks, and hoes should be enough. After all, it is beyond Lu Xun's current ability to obtain other more powerful weapons.
