There was no other way. After haggling for a long time, Achang finally said that he would contact the higher-ups to see if the price was acceptable.
When we met for the second time, he agreed, but asked to see what the car looked like.
Zhou Shuwan showed him the photos on his phone.
The other person was full of admiration: "Sister, your car looks like a tourist bus for Cumulus Mountain?"
Jiyun Mountain is high in altitude and was the only place in J City that was not flooded. However, when the flood receded, various forces discovered that dozens of buses on Jiyun Mountain had disappeared. They searched for a long time but found nothing, so they had to give up the search.
Now, the trucks and cars that can still run normally on the road are all left over from Fengyang Parking Lot and Jiyunshan Parking Lot.
Zhou Shuwan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why, isn't your water from Jiyun Mountain?"
"No, that's not what I meant. Sister, you frown like that and I'm really scared!" Ah Chang hurriedly smiled and said, "Our boss is purely a businessman. A businessman only exchanges materials to make profits and doesn't care about other things. Don't worry, sister, this bus was specifically requested by someone, so our boss agreed to exchange it. Otherwise, it would be a huge loss!"
Zhou Shuwan's expression finally relaxed.
"Even so, you are making money, otherwise why would you agree to it?"
"Oh, look at what you said, sister, why should we make some money, otherwise why would we be stuck in the middle doing this thankless job, don't you think?"
"Okay, is the water here? Where is it?"
"400 tons of water at once would be too much of a burden," said Achang. "We don't have many trucks here, and few tires can handle high temperatures, so we'll bring five trucks with 20 tons of water. Sister, where should we put them?"
There was also a hint of curiosity in Achang's eyes.
He was actually wondering, these two people need so much water, is there any place to put it?
Although the price they agreed on was for the water and the container.
Could it be a country yard like those in the countryside, with a big pond dug in it?
But can you let go of so much?
As expected, Zhou Shuwan mentioned a place, which was an urban village not far from here. The buildings were all built by themselves, two or three stories high, and all the people ran away during the flood season.
Now this urban village is completely deserted.
Achang understood it very clearly and felt that he must have guessed it right.
"Okay! Sister, 400 tons of water will be delivered in two days."
Zhou Shuwan nodded: "Okay, once there's enough water, you can get the bus."
Two days later, 40 water tanks were neatly placed in several courtyards of the urban village, and each tank could store 10 tons of water.
Zhou Shuwan and Qi Mingyu inspected the goods and nodded with satisfaction. "The 20 buses are all in the Fengyang parking lot. You can have someone drive them. Just be careful, the tires are quite fragile."
Achang was very surprised and thought to himself, could it be that this sister had parked the bus in Fengyang parking lot a few days ago?
Just because your own water cannot be delivered immediately, you have kept silent?
If this is true, then this sister is really brave!
He took his men there and saw 20 clean and intact buses parked at the top of the parking lot, with their keys still in place.
To avoid being seen, they all did it at night.
The temperature at night was not as high as during the day. Achang waved his hand and said, "Tell our brothers to be careful and drive these cars back. They will probably be sent for renovation."
After Zhou Shuwan, Qi Mingyu and others left, they pretended to be busy and pushed a tricycle out from the side and took out a thick water pipe from it.
Qi Mingyu moved a large pile of black sunshade nets from an empty house and set up a sunshade directly in the yard.
I ran to the second floor and tied the black net to the railing, and everything below was completely blocked.
I couldn't see what was going on below. After the sunshade net was taken down, Zhou Shuwan was collecting the muddy water pipes.
The same is true for the second courtyard.
After passing through several courtyards, someone hiding in the distance on a high floor, observing with night vision goggles, asked Achang, "Do you think they dug a pool down here?"
Ah Chang nodded. "That must be it. Let's go. There's nothing to see anymore. The boss just wants us to observe quietly, just to see how they deal with the water storage problem. He has no other intentions. But if you think about it, how deep can their artificially dug pools be? If the high temperature continues, the water will definitely evaporate. Let's go."
For the bosses who handled countless supplies, 400 tons of water was just a medium-sized business deal and they didn't take it seriously.
If it weren't for a group of high-ranking people who needed to take buses to travel and needed close protection from soldiers with guns, this deal might not have been successful!
After he and his men left, Qi Mingyu, who had been looking down and pretending to be busy, finally looked up over there.
"Is the person gone?"
Qi Mingyu nodded.
Zhou Shuwan had already transferred all the water into the space, leaving only 40 empty plastic water tanks. "Then we'll be back after a while. We'll come back tomorrow to take the water tanks away."
These 40 10-ton water storage tanks are valuable, and she is reluctant to throw them away.
An empty plastic jar is not heavy.
A large amount of precious water resources were exchanged, and both families were very happy.
Especially Grandma Pang, who had always been worried about the lack of water, smiled from ear to ear: "Xiao Yu and Wan Wan are really capable. They quietly stored enough water for our two families to last for 10 to 20 years."
"These two children are a powerful combination." Zhong Tiyun also kept praising them.
Although there is enough water in their own space, Zhou Shuwan has analyzed this matter with Zhou's parents. The Qi family does not store much water, but the water shortage crisis will last for several years. In this case, he will help the Qi family store water. In this way, the two families who have no shortage of supplies can get along naturally, and it will also find a clear source for their own endless water resources.
Besides, water is a necessity for human survival, so the more we stockpile, the better.
As time goes by, especially during drought periods, water becomes more precious!
At that time, if there is a real need, it is possible to exchange clean water resources for other supplies.
Zhou Shuwan has always been a far-sighted person. Zhong Tiyun and Zhou Jianghai have great faith in their daughter and naturally agree with her.
Even they themselves think that the more food and drink supplies they stockpile, the better.
It took several days before the 40 water tanks were dragged back.
The Zhou and Qi families each placed a few water tanks in their homes as storefronts, and the rest were stored in Zhou Shuwan's space.
In addition to the water storage tanks, Zhou Shuwan has also recently been collecting soil for planting. When acid rain arrives, the soil will corrode, requiring the corroded areas to be removed before planting can begin. This would be a devastating blow to the survivors who have already lived in the apocalypse for several years.
Therefore, soil suitable for farming and planting will become more and more precious in the future.
There was no way around it because the space was small before, but now the space is large, and Zhou Shuwan will collect soil from the space whenever he has the chance.
