Chapter 14: Taking Account of the Hoarding
"That’s a good idea, sweetheart; when the apocalypse starts, we won’t be able to taste these delicacies again. If we can have them even after years, why not? Now that you’ve mentioned it, I think I will also have the servants at home prepare as many dishes every day as possible.
Your father and I decided to let the servants go home about ten days before the apocalypse. This way, the cases reported and the weather would have changed to noticeable degrees by everyone and we would have an excuse to caution them.
This way they will have time to get home and stockpile supplies."
"That’s an excellent idea. We have the truck, and we can have them load the food in the truck every morning when we go out to shop, and I can put it in the space while still hot. We can just tell them you are sending the food to homeless shelters."
"Then I will order two hundred portions of every signature dish they have to be picked up in two days. That way they have time to prepare the freshest ingredients."
"We can go to Pearl City when we have stockpiled most of what we need to get fresh seafood, too."
"Yes, and since you love hot pot, it will be great to get the hotpot base from that small restaurant you’ve the talking about. It will save us during winter."
"Yeah, that restaurant has the best hotpot in this city, and their sauces are heavenly. I don’t know how they make them, but I will go there in a few days to order."
"Alright Bunny, let’s get going if you are done eating. We bought a lot of stuff which won’t all fit in the truck. We’ll have to make a few trips and by the time we are done, it’ll be dark. I’ll go order those dishes." Chu Miao’s mother stated as she stood up and headed to the manager’s office.
