   Chapter 2 The Secret of the Jade Pendant

  In his mind, the images of the neatly arranged rows of goods became clearer and clearer. Tang Mo suppressed the huge joy in his heart and stared at the bottle of Coke in the freezer in his mind. With a move, he felt a cold touch in his hand.

  It's done!

  Tang Mo opened his eyes and saw a bottle of Coke with water droplets in his hand.

   Without thinking, she twisted it open and took a big mouthful of it into her throat. The sweetness and coolness of the entrance told her that it was all true. You don't have to wait until the end of the world, the space in the jade pendant is now open!

   Walking in front of the freezer, Tang Mo observed by himself that the cola row was still full of the goods he had just sorted out. It seemed that the supermarket in the jade pendant was different from the real supermarket.

   At the end of Tang Dynasty, he had always had doubts in his last life. Because there was no way to verify it at that time, when he got the jade pendant in the last life, he did not dare to take out more of the contents immediately.

   She was afraid that if it was really the same, she would take too much and her mother would not be enough. She made up her mind to only take what she needed, but she lost the jade pendant before she could take it.

Suddenly, Tang Mo seemed to think of something, opened the store door and ran to the supermarket on the opposite street to buy a bottle of water, then quickly ran back and put the purchased water on the shelf, and then closed his eyes and entered the space .

The shelves in the    space remain the same, and there is no extra bottle of water.

  Tang Mo opened his eyes, took the water in his hand, and thought about putting it into the space.

   Sure enough, when he entered the space again, the bottle of water had already appeared in the corner of the supermarket where there was no shelf. That was the location of the cashier in the real supermarket. Obviously, the supermarket in the space did not have a cashier set.

   Tang Mo controlled the movement of the bottle of water in his mind, but he could only move left and right in a position of three square meters.

   At the end of Tang, it was clear in his heart that it seemed that the places where the shelves were properly placed in the supermarket were all ready-made materials that could be used for himself.

   And the space for other things is only 3 square meters.

   This is enough.

   At the end of Tang Dynasty, he was satisfied. Although his supermarket was small, the sparrow was small but complete.

Whether it is bags of rice noodles, grains and oils, or sealed instant noodles with various snacks, they are enough for her to eat alone for several years, not to mention there are two large freezers of water, which have accumulated almost an entire wall of mineral water into boxes, and various seasoning pots. There are various daily necessities such as bowls and scoops, blankets and bedding.

  What are these, these are the slow sense of security.

   Tang Mo is not a greedy person, these are enough for her.

   The top priority is to strengthen her jade pendant necklace first. This is the most important thing for her now, and nothing is more important than this.

   If she lost the jade pendant again this time, she would even cry to death.

  I checked the time, it's just past 10 o'clock, Tang Ma won't be able to go home until at least 6 o'clock in the afternoon.

  Tang Mo got dressed, took his wallet key, locked the supermarket door and went out.

   There are still seven days left, and **** on earth is coming. At this time, who has the mind to control how many cans of Coke and how many packs of cigarettes can be sold today?

  The road from childhood to adulthood was very smooth at the end of Tang Dynasty. Along the way, he went to the best high school, university, and even got a scholarship.

Tang Ma's small supermarket is not profitable every month, but because both mothers are relatively economical people, Tang Mo will always make some extra allowances, so after so many years, not only are they not stretched, they are even small. Saved a sum.

   Tang Mo didn't know how much money Tang Ma had in her hands, but she had 20,000 yuan in her card and several thousand in cash. These money have to be spent and exchanged for materials in these days.

   Although the money is not much, it is all saved by myself.

   Thinking that he had been frugal for so long in his previous life, and finally his money died in the bank and turned into a string of numbers, Tang Mo felt heartache for himself.

   Fortunately, God gave her a chance to come back.

   Mother was still alive, and the jade pendant was not lost. At the end of Tang Dynasty, her optimistic nature was restored.

   As long as the mother is still there, no matter what happens, even if the next second is hell, Tang Mo has no fear.

   took a taxi to the nearby hardware store, Tang Mo found a shop with a more professional appearance and walked in.

   Sitting on a rattan chair in the store was an old uncle, wearing a washed vest that couldn't see the color, and was busy with his work with his eyes lowered and his head down.

   At the end of Tang Dynasty, he didn't make a sound or urge, but quietly stood aside and waited.

   When the old master was busy with his work, he looked up at Tang Mo, "What do you need?"

"I want to match my jade pendant with a chain." Tang Mo said, took off the necklace around his neck and handed it out. The thin red rope was worn out with uneven thickness, and the jade pendant appeared to hang on it. Some shaky.

  The old master carefully took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully.

   "The hanging ring on the pendant is quite sturdy. Unless the jade is broken, it won't break. The chain really doesn't work. It's time to replace it."

   "Girl, I advise you to go to the jewelry store next to me to get a chain. I don't have any gold or silver, so I have the advantage of being sturdy and durable. It doesn't look good." The master reminded kindly.

  Tang Mo hooked the corners of her lips. What she wanted was durability. Beauty was not in her consideration at all. The less conspicuous the better.

   "How strong it is, this thing is very important to me, I just want to make sure it hangs around my neck all the time, and the rest doesn't matter."

   "By the way, let's see if you can wear two chains to be safe."

  At the end of Tang Dynasty, after thinking about it, he was still worried. A chain is still a little unsafe. This jade pendant is a life-saving thing, and you can't be careful.

   "Okay, then wait a minute, this thing is fast."

   Less than an hour later, the master handed over the reconfigured chain to Tang Mo.

There are indeed two necklaces on the    pendant, one is a very thin metal snake bone chain, and the other is a black leather rope, which looks strange and fashionable.

  The material of the two chains is very strong, and the buckle part has also been remodeled by the master. It is very troublesome to manually pick it up, and it will not fall off by itself.

The length of    is also designed according to the requirements of the late Tang Dynasty. It is too short to hang on the outside, and it is too conspicuous to hang outside. It is too long and inconvenient to move.

   Obviously the craftsman of this shop is very good, Tang Mo put the necklace around his neck with satisfaction, and then stretched out his hand to tug on it.

   Not only is it sturdy but also stylish.

   Tang Mo felt that his heavy metal double-chain design seemed to be at the forefront of fashion, and praised himself silently in his heart.

   After paying the money, a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and Tang Mo was no longer so flustered by what was to come.

  Thinking of the three square meters of space in the jade pendant, Tang Mo suddenly had an idea.

  Three square meters is just an area of ​​space, but you can't waste the height yourself.

After carefully thinking about the height of his own supermarket, Tang Mo and the boss ordered 5 combined shelves, all of which are 8 meters high. All the things in the space are used by mental power, so naturally there is no need to consider the height. The problem with too high is, of course, the higher the better.

  The middle layer is a detachable long strip of aluminum plywood, which is convenient for the late Tang Dynasty to freely combine things of various sizes and maximize the use of the three square meters of space.

  Because it is urgent, the boss will deliver it tomorrow, and Tang Mo added more money, including the necklace money, a total of 2,300 yuan spent here today.

   Worth the money!

   After explaining all the details to the master, Tang Mo walked out with a smile, saving so many years, it was the first time to spend money lavishly, don't say it, it was really cool.

   glanced at the time, and measured the money left in his pocket. At the end of Tang Dynasty, he moved to the next place, the pharmacy.

  The fog of the first half of the apocalypse has not dissipated, and alien beasts have not been born.

   In addition to enduring famine, human beings are actually not short of medicine. But half a year later, strange beasts ran rampant, and large buildings collapsed overnight and were replaced by ancient trees and grasses drilled from the ground.

   Medicine has become a very scarce thing, especially for people who often go hunting. Bleeding and injuries have almost become commonplace, and an accidental infection will kill you without medicine.

  5,000 yuan, which was the budget of the late Tang Dynasty to buy medicine for himself.

  The physical fitness of post-apocalyptic humans has been greatly improved, colds and fevers are almost non-existent, but anti-inflammatory drugs, hemostatic drugs and bandages are indeed life-saving things. These three things account for most of the budget in the late Tang Dynasty.

   In addition, due to the lack of normal food, the water we drink is getting more and more dirty, the food we eat is getting more and more terrible, and gastrointestinal medicine and anti-diarrheal medicine are also necessary. For the rest of the miscellaneous things, Tang Mo also prepared some according to the situations that his memory was more needed. After all, he was prepared.

   After buying the medicine, I went to the sporting goods store to buy some neat sportswear, sneakers and two sports backpacks.

  The end of the Tang Dynasty has always been a lady-like dress, and now it is the summertime wardrobe basically full of skirts.

   I still remember that when I was trapped in school at the end of the Tang Dynasty, it was very inconvenient to wear a skirt. It was neither resistant to dirt nor strong, and the team had to hold back when they moved.

   It was only after she left school that she went outside to find long clothes and trousers that didn't fit very well and put them on. She could never eat this kind of loss again in her life.

  After buying the clothes, Tang Mo went directly to the barber shop next to him and asked Mr. Tony to cut himself a neat short haircut and thin it out. The more convenient and simple the better.

   "Beauty, you need to cut a lot, then you can't wear short skirts, and you don't have long hair to look good." This teacher Tony was very conscientious, and tried his best to persuade Tang Mo to have the self-consciousness of a beautiful woman.

   "Cut it, it doesn't matter if it doesn't look good." Tang Mo sat on the chair to himself.

   Looking at the mirror opposite him, the long hair that he had carefully raised for many years fell to the ground one by one, Tang Mo slowly lowered his eyes, what's the use of looking good?

  In the end times, if there is no strong backing, the ones who live the worst are those beautiful girls.

  The beauty of the late Tang Dynasty, but the ability is still weak, such a girl is the most disadvantaged in the last days. But fortunately, there is still the ingenuity of the stock. It didn't take long for the end of the world to realize the problem, and I "tidy up" myself well, and I always hunched over my body and always hunched over, so I avoided a lot of trouble.

   It's not that the Tang Dynasty thought too much, but that after the world lost the law to maintain normal order, human beings gradually returned to the original biological chain of the jungle.

   Whoever is stronger has more resources. This is the default law.

  Etiquette, righteousness, integrity, respect for the old and love for the young, and women's priority are all gone. When morality began to crumble, people took off their hypocritical masks, leaving only naked humanity.

   Everyone is struggling in the apocalypse, and no one knows if they will be able to eat a bite of food tomorrow, or if they will be torn in half by alien beasts. In a world where it is hard to live on your own, who has the spare energy to think about others?

  Only being strong is king. Before you have enough strength, you must keep a low profile.

   Tang Mo closed his eyes and planned the future for himself step by step in his heart.
