Chapter 251
"Of course. I know a few rules of the underworld." Zhou Shuwan said calmly.
He looks like a man who has done great things and handled huge amounts of materials!
Achang felt more confident.
He was actually a few years older than Zhou Shuwan, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Calling her "sister" was a business custom, and it showed respect.
But, at this moment, Achang thought in his heart that "Sister Zhou", who was younger than him, had experienced many big scenes!
He also had a good tongue, and within a few days he passed on the news that 10 tons of gasoline could be exchanged for four new tires and a generator.
Both the Zhou and Qi families were very happy. This price was considered a great deal!
Grandma Pang and Qi Mingyu also strongly demanded that 5 tons of gasoline be taken out, and that the Zhou family not be the only one to spend it!
Seeing the current situation, Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu had been dating for several months, their relationship becoming increasingly stable and close. Their families now lived together, and their personalities were familiar and compatible, with no conflicts. In the future, the two families would likely have to work together to overcome various difficulties!
Therefore, the Qi family had to pay half of the gasoline, and neither Zhou Jianghai nor Zhong Tiyun objected.
Being willing to take it out shows that Xiaoyu is not stingy and is open-minded!
Another point is that in the future, when someone uses your car, you won’t have to ask to borrow the word “borrow”, which would make both parties feel uncomfortable.
Tires made of special materials are so expensive, there is no need to exchange them for another one.
When exchanging gasoline, Zhou Shuwan put forward a condition.
They filled the gasoline in advance and placed it in one location, but the other party needed to return the storage tanks of the same size.
Those who can afford to exchange for tires made of special materials naturally will not take the oil tanks seriously and will agree easily.
As for the extra gasoline for Achang, Zhou Shuwan also used a half-ton plastic water tank, filled it with gasoline, and placed it in a place, letting Achang find a way to pull it back himself.
Behind the frame building, the off-road vehicle was released. Qi Mingyu was responsible for replacing the new generator and tires, and then started it up to test its performance.
As expected, tires made of the new material are much lighter than the old ones, making them less strenuous to run on and more fuel-efficient.
The sound of the generator is also very low.
Zhou Shuwan took out the high-hardness tempered glass that he and his father had cut according to the size of the car window yesterday and asked Qi Mingyu to replace it on the SUV.
Finally, the outside of the car was painted black to remove the license plate number.
In this way, it is a new car inside and out.
Even if the original owner of the off-road vehicle was still around, he probably wouldn’t recognize that it was once his favorite ride!
After the car for the trip was ready, Zhou Shuwan announced to her family that she was going out to stock up on supplies again!
Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun both frowned.
It's not the beginning of the high temperature now, and the temperature can still be adapted. Even if Zhou Shuwan goes out for a few days, it will be no problem with his skills.
However, the temperature outside is now over 70 degrees Celsius, and people can die if they are not careful.
What if Zhou Shuwan goes out and something unexpected happens outside? What should we do then?
Grandma Pang also advised, "Wanwan, listen to grandma. Our two families have enough supplies and food and drink. You don't have to go out and take risks! It's wrong to make your parents worry about you at home!"
Zhou Shuwan said, "Dad, Mom, Grandma Pang, don't worry. I won't go too far. It's inconvenient to stay outside right now, so I will definitely be back within a day. Everyone is stuck at home and can't go out, so it's time to stock up on supplies."
Grandma Pang was puzzled. "It's so hot, even if there are some supplies, they will be destroyed by the high temperature. It's useless even if we find them. Wanwan, don't go out."
Among the crowd, only Grandma Pang and Mu Mu didn't know about Zhou Shuwan's space, and didn't know that she went out this time not to look for food and supplies.
Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun exchanged a glance, and the latter spoke up, "Wanwan, your grandmother Pang is right. It's too dangerous out there. Have you forgotten what you said last time about the water protection team? Lieutenant Xiao and his men have been robbed countless times since you left. There are so many bad guys out there, all waiting to take down anyone who's left alone!"
Zhou Shuwan was silent for a moment and looked at Qi Mingyu.
The latter had guessed that Zhou Shuwan wanted to go out and look for supplies as early as when she wanted to exchange the tires.
If it were him, if he had space, he definitely wouldn't just hide here and wait for the heat to pass. Instead, he would take advantage of this rare opportunity when everyone is trapped underground to stock up on precious and rare supplies!
He simply said, "Let Wanwan go. I'll accompany her. Don't worry, I'll take care of her safety!"
Zhou Shuwan frowned slightly, but said nothing.
Zhou Jianghai was about to say something when Qi Mingyu added, "Second Lieutenant Xiao mentioned to us that due to the high temperatures, most of the underworld forces don't have enough heat-resistant supplies and have to hide underground. So it's still very safe outside now, much safer than during the flood season!"
Everyone remained silent.
Qi Mingyu continued, "We'll leave in the morning and come back in the evening. Although it's hot during the day, it's no longer an obstacle to travel. We'll be back on time before sunset in the evening."
Zhou Shuwan also said: "This is just a temporary plan. Let's go out for a day to see the situation and then make other plans. We are all living underground now and have no idea what's going on outside. It's always a good idea to go out and find out!"
Zhong Tiyun glared at her unhappily: "You've said all the good and bad things."
Zhou Shuwan smiled at her ingratiatingly.
She ignored him and turned to look at Qi Mingyu with a loving attitude but a serious tone: "Xiao Yu, Wanwan is the apple of your eyes and mine. Her safety after she gets out will be in your hands!"
Qi Mingyu also nodded seriously: "Aunt, Uncle, don't worry! I will definitely protect Wanwan's safety!"
