309: Future Vision
The more Pan Han picked, the more excited he got, eventually buying over 100 sets of various clothes and over 100 kinds of toys.
The beautiful saleswoman was stunned.
“These two aren’t from a Japanese movie crew, are they? Coming here to stock up? I wonder if I’ll have a chance to act. I heard it’s quite profitable.” The beautiful saleswoman muttered to herself.
Mainly, it was rare to see such a handsome man and beautiful woman buying things.
Usually, it was bald old men secretly buying, often eyeing her with lewd gazes.
The beautiful saleswoman couldn’t help but secretly observe the handsome man and beautiful woman.
It took a full half hour to check out.
Pan Han, carrying Ellie and numerous bags, filled the trunk and back seat to the brim.
“I’ll drive.” Pan Han proactively got into the driver’s seat, while Ellie obediently sat in the passenger seat.
The two went directly to the large flat, put away their things, and then went to shower.
Yan Xiaoli wasn’t home; she was still overseeing post-production and likely wouldn’t return even once in ten to fifteen days.
After showering, Ellie proactively changed into a set, and Pan Han nodded, giving a thumbs up with both hands.
Next, the two happily began a two-person ranked match.
Pan Han, caught off guard, took down three high grounds.
Ellie was no match and simply fell asleep.
While she was asleep, Pan Han stored the items in his spatial storage and sent a long list of procurement materials to Ouyang Cong, asking him to deliver them to the Kyoto warehouse.
Only after everything was done did he fall asleep.
The next day, both were in high spirits.
Pan Han was because he was an Intermediate Evolver, while Ellie was simply because she was young.
“You go back first. I have something to take care of.” Pan Han said, eating the breakfast Ellie made.
“Yes, Boss.” Ellie replied obediently.
When Pan Han brought the supplies and traversed to the apocalypse, he learned that both armies had already returned victorious.
They would be back at Dawn Base in five days.
On Dili Abasi’s side, they were traveling 1000 kilometers daily.
They encountered some trouble along the way, but Dili Abasi repelled them all.
The biggest problem was fuel replenishment; gas stations were empty everywhere. To refuel, they could only trade supplies with bases they passed by.
During this time, Cheng Xiao brought over some canned goods to exchange for fuel.
Now, they were still nearly 8000 kilometers from the base, and they also had to consider personnel rest and vehicle maintenance on the road.
“If this continues, we’ll go slower and slower, and we might not even arrive in ten days.” Pan Han frowned after hearing the report.
“Yes.” Cheng Xiao, after making two trips, realized that this approach wouldn’t work.
The risks in between were uncontrollable.
“How many bases do they need to pass through on their way home?” Pan Han asked.
“Seven in total.” Cheng Xiao pulled up the data, and a map appeared on the screen, marking the return route and the bases they had to pass through.
“Two options: either send planes to pick them up, or fight through these seven bases.” After a moment of thought, Pan Han said.
“Ah?? Fight through seven? There’s even a base with an Intermediate Evolver stationed there.” Dili Abasi exclaimed in surprise.
8000 kilometers, spanning 3 States, would not be easy to fight through.
Moreover, arbitrarily making enemies with seven bases would also bring unnecessary risks.
“The planes I can get are not as good as those in the apocalypse.” Pan Han recalled that very few planes in his world could fly over 8000 kilometers; they were all strategic transport planes, considered national treasures.
Not to mention flying back.
Without aerial refueling, it was simply impossible.
And considering wild field takeoffs and landings, it was even more difficult.
“How about we go to the seven bases in advance and give them some supplies?” Cheng Xiao offered another suggestion.
“That doesn’t sound reliable at all. What if someone gets greedy and takes them hostage?” Pan Han shook his head; he didn’t quite trust that these bases would all simply take money and do business.
“Then I can only fly a trip every day to deliver supplies.” Seeing that there was no better solution at the moment, Cheng Xiao could only continue with the previous plan.
“Actually, there’s another way. Rent a plane from Mr. Mo.” Pan Han suddenly changed the subject.
“Ah? What do you mean?”
“Just rent it for two days temporarily, including the plane and the pilot. As long as the fee is sufficient.”
“That works too?” Cheng Xiao blinked.
After eight years of the apocalypse, normal commercial activities had long disappeared, and Cheng Xiao couldn’t think of this idea for a while.
“Why not? Go ask Mr. Mo and see what the price is.”
“Okay, I’ll go now.” Cheng Xiao felt that this matter was reliable, so she couldn’t wait to go discuss it with Mo Li.
After seeing Cheng Xiao off, Pan Han took out various sets and toys, arranging them by category and tidying them up one by one.
The main thing was to enjoy the process.
Ten minutes later, Cheng Xiao returned.
“Holy cow, when did you get so many of these?” Cheng Xiao exclaimed, seeing the room, the bed, all covered in various sets.
“I bought them specifically. When I’m not around, you and Asiba can play with them however you like.” Pan Han looked at Cheng Xiao with a gentle expression.
“You’re so eager for Xi Ba to come back, could it be that you want her to play dress-up with you?” Cheng Xiao picked up a piece of clothing that couldn’t cover the front and exposed the backside.
“I’ll tell you a secret, I gave Old Wu a few sets a few days ago, hehe.”
“Oh, oh, oh! No wonder when I ran into him that day, he ran away with a strange expression.”
“Exactly, I wonder when he plans to give them to Second Sister.”
“I’ll go ask tonight.”
“You tell me about Mr. Mo’s side first.”
“Mo Dage said no problem. I explained the matter in detail, and Mo Dage said it would cost 10 million cockroach biscuits for one such mission.”
“Alright, you arrange the supplies.”
“I’ve already agreed. The plane will come to our base tomorrow, then go pick them up.”
“Ha, you little girl, you’re getting bolder and bolder. You actually acted first and reported later.”
“If I waited for you to make up your mind for everything, the lily would have already turned cold!”
After that, the two began to tidy up the sets and toys together.
While tidying, they envisioned beautiful scenes for the future.
“After we take over All States, what’s the next plan?” After tidying up, with nothing else to do, Cheng Xiao asked Pan Han.
“Live in peace and work happily, I suppose. Have food to eat, clothes to wear.” Pan Han blew smoke rings, smiling.
“Supporting hundreds of thousands of people, is the pressure immense for you?”
“It’s okay. With nutrient soil, we should be self-sufficient. I should, however, consider how to restore commerce.”
“What’s the use of restoring commerce? It’s enough for everyone to be full.”
“No, that won’t do. If they’re full with nothing to do, trouble is likely to arise. We need to get society running again. Everyone needs to have their own things to do.”
“Then which industries should we restore first?”
“If food is sufficient, we can open restaurants. We can also make processed foods from food to sell to outside bases. We can also open military factories. In short, there are many things we can do.”
“It’s a pity we can’t have children, otherwise, the education industry would definitely be profitable.”
“No, no, the children here will definitely not pay for school.” Pan Han fiercely extinguished his cigarette butt, his eyes burning.
“I wonder when women can have children.”
“That matter can only be taken slowly. But there’s one thing that should be moved up the agenda.”
“What?”
“We need to restore currency.” Pan Han stood up, looking out the window.
