There was not much water in the nearby factory, so the two of them waded out directly.

Entering the factory next door, which was also a furniture factory, the two went straight to the office.

When I opened the safe in the finance room, I only had 50,000 yuan, and the one in the factory director's office only had 20,000 yuan.

After all, fewer people use cash now. The cash may be kept as a backup, or to purchase supplies from some local farmers. Some elderly people do not know how to pay electronically, so they still need to use cash.

The two continued to enter the next factory.

This is a chemical factory, and there are various chemical reagents in the workshop.

Yang Qing wondered whether these things would be useful in the future.

She made an excuse, "You go up to the finance room first. I have a stomachache and need to go to the toilet."

"Okay!" Leng Yi nodded, not doubting anything.

Yang Qing walked towards the toilet over there and turned towards the workshop where Leng Yi couldn't see him.

When he entered the workshop, he saw all kinds of protective clothing hanging, and there were also brand-new and unopened ones in the cabinet. Yang Qing grabbed two boxes and brought them into the space.

Putting on a set of protective clothing and entering the workshop, Yang Qing took a look at various unknown chemical reagents packaged in barrels. He didn't know much about them, but they seemed to have been introduced on TV, so let's collect them first.

Just when I was about to leave, I found a laboratory next to it.

Yang Qing pried open the door and walked in.

A locked cabinet contained various metals, some of which were placed in glass bottles. They seemed to be rare metals that were used as chemical catalysts.

Yang Qing has watched some popular science videos on the Internet. Some rare metals are more expensive than gold, mainly because they are difficult to buy.

Collect it first, maybe it will be useful later.

Looking at the other cabinets, there were sulfuric acid and other things that were not usually available for purchase. Yang Qing put them and the cabinets into the space.

There are various experimental instruments, microscopes, etc. nearby. As long as Yang Qing can move them, he also puts them into the space. There is nothing that can be done about the ones fixed to the ground.

When she came out, Leng Yi had already opened the safe, but the contents inside had not been touched.

Yang Qing took a look and saw that this factory had a lot of cash, half a million yuan, so he put all the money in his bag.

There are also some other valuable things in the safe. Yang Qing looked at Leng Yi and said, "You can take these too."

"I don't have to." Leng Yi shook his head.

"Then I'm welcome." Yang Qing threw the things into his pocket and smiled happily.

Leng Yi couldn't help but chuckle when he saw her money-obsessed look.

"Why are you laughing? Maybe these can come in handy in the future?" Yang Qing pouted.

"No, I'm happy to see you happy too." Leng Yi said. After finishing speaking, he realized that his words were a bit ambiguous and his ears turned red.

Yang Qing didn't pay attention, "I like it anyway, so don't give it to me."

"Okay, I'll give it all to you!" Leng Yi said softly.

"Let's go to the next house!" Yang Qing picked up his backpack. Unexpectedly, it was quite heavy. Leng Yi quickly took it, "I'll do it!"

By the time they visited a dozen nearby factories, their half-sized bags were already filled with money.

During this period, Yang Qing would always find an excuse to go out and grab a lot of things and put them into the space. Leng Yi never asked.

Back at the furniture factory, Gao Yang and the others moved all the firewood into the assault boat and rubber boat.

Yang Qing poured out all the money in the bag and counted it, and found that there were more than three million.

"So many?" Everyone was shocked.

"You can buy more food now." Yang Qing said with a smile.

"I'm afraid there's no place to buy it." Leng Yi said.

Yang Qing nodded. Now even the government sells grain with a limit of two kilograms per person. They have no place to spend so much money.

It seems that we still need to find other channels, otherwise the money will really become useless paper. "Let's go back, it's almost dark." Gao Yang said.

Yang Qing looked at the sky and said, "We might as well go back after dark, so that no one will be jealous when they see us transporting supplies."

Jiang Hao smiled, "We just have some firewood today, why are they jealous?"

"Who knows, as long as we get something, they will be jealous and don't want others to do well." Lu Lin interjected.

Leng Yi nodded, "Just rest where you are for a while. When you get to the community, stop the motor and paddle slowly across. It's better to be cautious."

No one said anything else. Yang Qing took a few bags of beef jerky from his bag for everyone to eat. He had swept a lot of snacks while sweeping the building, so no one found it strange.

After resting for half an hour, everyone got on the boat.

The heavy draft of firewood is very deep, and every ship has to load it to a position where it is about to enter the water before daring to load it any further.

"Firewood is still too heavy. It would be better if we had charcoal, which is much lighter." Gao Yang said.

I don’t know where to find charcoal at the moment, so I’ll go back first.

When they arrived at the community, they stopped their motors and the three boats slowly approached Building 8. It was dinner time and no one came out to watch.

Several people carried the firewood upstairs. Fortunately, the water level was already at the fifth floor, so they only had to climb three floors.

Place the wood first in the sunroom on the top floor where there is still some space.

After the last bundle of firewood was put away, Yang Qing saw the three leaky rubber boats that he had fished out of the water before. They had been sitting there without repairing them. He thought that he might need to repair them now that he had time to repair them.

"I'll go down to cook first, you come down early." Lu Lin said.

Yang Qing watched everyone else leave and took out two lunch boxes from the space, "Don't do it. Just eat this. Just heat it up."

"Okay!" Lu Lin smiled. This was because Yang Qing felt sorry for her, and she naturally appreciated it.

Yang Qing took out the all-purpose glue from the space, cut a piece of leather from the furniture factory, cut it into corresponding small pieces, used the all-purpose glue to stick the leather to the broken part of the rubber boat, then inflated it and pressed it on the water I tried it inside, and there seemed to be no air leakage.

It seems to be quite effective. I don’t know how long it will last, but it can be used for the time being.

After filling up all three rubber boats, Yang Qing went downstairs to eat.

The next day, Yang Xiang asked Teacher Zhang where the government department store selling grain was, and told Leng Yi and others to go buy grain together.

Leaving Lu Lin at home, Yang Qing took 300,000 yuan and went out with everyone.

It’s useless to take too much money. Food is sold in limited quantities, so it’s impossible to buy too much.

When we arrived at the designated department store, there was already a long queue to sell food, and we didn’t know when it would be our turn.

Yang Qing asked Wang Min and Jiang Hao to line up there, "The others will go shopping with me, mainly warm clothes."

"Okay!" Everyone nodded.

There are relatively few people in other areas of the department store. After all, the most difficult thing to solve now is the food problem, and everything else comes second.

Especially in the winter clothing area, there are almost no people, and the prices are twice as expensive as before. Although it is expensive, compared with rice, it has gone from two yuan to three thousand yuan now, which is a full 1,500 times more expensive. Two times is already a reasonable price.

Another point is that it is June now and the weather is still very hot. Almost no one thinks of buying winter clothes. After all, money needs to be spent wisely.

Yang Qing saw a down jacket from Big Goose. It used to cost 3,000 a piece, but now it costs 6,000. However, his down jacket is really good and has a high down content, so it is worth buying.

I took a light gray one and asked Leng Yi to come over and try it on.

"This color is nice, would you like to try it?"

"Okay!" Leng Yi nodded.

"Do you really want to buy it? It's so expensive." Li Shengnan said. Even when she was working in the past, she was reluctant to buy such expensive clothes.

"Buy, one for each of us!" Yang Qing waved his hand proudly, "We are now rich people too!"

Li Shengnan pursed his lips and smiled, and went to pick out clothes with Gao Yang.
