Chapter 187: 185 Space 20X2 Chapter 187: 185 Space 20X2 Facing Hua Mi’s generous offer, a dozen herbal medicine traders all fell silent for a moment. Finally, someone spoke up, “Miss Hua, rest assured, our herbs are top quality, the best of the real deal, and the finest in the industry.” Since Hua Miren was being so forthright, offering them a price they wouldn’t dare dream of now, they had to give Hua Mi some assurance in return. Zhong Changjin nodded, “I can guarantee this, Miss Hua. I’ve been in this market for over a decade. Everyone who came today is honest and above board.” “Our herbs are good, and we’ve removed all the ones with worms, the damp ones; you can be at ease about that.” The dozen top traders practically wanted to raise their hands and swear an oath; their business was based on trustworthiness. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have made it this big. Hua Mi laughed, “I’m not worried about this. I’m not planning to do business with you just this once. If you have other channels and can find more herbs, traditional or Western, I’ll buy them all.” “As long as the herbs are good, I’ll buy them at pre-apocalypse prices.” “Once you get the money, you can come to my place to buy supplies. At my place, we always honor money.” Because she had an “apocalypse supermarket – Cashier System,” which recognized money. Zhong Changjin, including the dozen herbal traders, happily took out their phones and left. The back of their phones had cartoon-style Universal Signal Connectors bought from Hua Mi, filled with childlike fun. Inside the phones, lay the payment Hua Mi had just transferred to them. With this money, they could provide a good life for themselves and their families for several years. As long as Hua Mi stayed afloat, as she honored money, they could spend the money in their phones. Of course, if they could find more herbal medicines for Hua Mi, she would buy them all, just the same. Everyone was eager to act, whispering to each other on their way out, “I have a herbal warehouse in C City, even bigger than this one, with 200 tons of saffron stored. I’ll find some sealed trucks to haul it here somehow.” “Then I have two warehouses in D City, but the roads are inaccessible; otherwise, I would transport the goods too...” These were people who had warehouses everywhere. The herbs stored in other city warehouses, who knows what condition they were in. They had to go and check. If by chance they found a good warehouse with unspoiled herbs, they could make a fortune again. Watching the herbal traders vanish into the night, Hua Mi turned and proceeded to the adjacent warehouse to collect the 100 tons of Cordyceps. Then she moved on to the next warehouse for Gastrodia, the next but one for donkey-hide gelatin... and several warehouses down for Hippocampus, she collected them all in one go into the level 19 storage system. [Unlock storage level 20 (Space 20X2)] [Received 1 lucky draw] [Remaining 11 lucky draws] Hua Mi abruptly paused; the storage reaching level 20 had undergone a qualitative change, just like the Garbage Recycling Station. What did this Space 20X2 mean? Hua Mi stood in an empty warehouse, far from the Garrison, examining her level 20 storage panel diligently. The single storage icon that was there before had duplicated. It was like a game inventory; initially, there was only one slot, now there were two. In the first slot, there were many tiny icons packed together, which needed to be clicked to access the subpage. This subpage contained all the materials currently in Hua Mi’s level 20 storage number 1. The storage space in Warehouse No. 2 at level 20 was empty, completely devoid of anything. However, the size of this space was the same as that of Warehouse No. 1. For a moment, Hua Mi felt an indescribable joy. If she had known that upgrading the storage level would double her storage space, why had she worried so bitterly about running out of it? After her delight faded, Hua Mi planned to clear out the goods from her level 20 warehouse, and then return to Xiang City to set up the 11 square meters of Black Land. It was at this moment. Footsteps suddenly resounded from behind her. A male voice carrying a clear malice spoke up, “Yo, is it just you, bitch, left here?” Hua Mi turned around in the empty warehouse, now with only some medicinal herbs remaining. At the entrance of the warehouse, a Big Gangster came in, leading a few Little Gangsters. They held knives and ropes in their hands, making it obvious that they were up to no good. Hua Mi didn’t speak; she stood in the darkness, silently observing the leader, the Big Gangster. “Bitch, we’ve been looking for you for a long time. You were quite hard to find.” The Big Gangster’s words came out through clenched teeth, as he led his Little Gangsters into the warehouse. He looked around the empty warehouse with a repulsive expression and asked, “You’ve run quite far from the Garrison, haven’t you? What, worried that if you screamed too loud, the Garrison wouldn’t hear you?” It hadn’t been easy for them to find Hua Mi, and now she had ended up alone. Fate was on their side. However, the Big Gangster wasn’t sure if he had remembered incorrectly; last time he had come to this herbal medicine area following Zhu Xianjun. The warehouses in this area were all filled with herbal medicines. Now, why were all the warehouses he checked in succession empty? Deciding to vent his anger on Hua Mi first, the Big Gangster then planned to ask Zhu Xianjun, who was waiting outside. Thinking this, the Big Gangster approached Hua Mi with a malicious grin, leading his gang towards her. Hua Mi expressionlessly waited for the Big Gangster to reach the middle of the warehouse, “Are you also Chen Hu’s men? How did you end up here?” “Yes, we are the boss’s men. You damned bitch, you’ve caused the death of so many of our brothers. Today, you’ve finally fallen into our hands.” The Big Gangster continued walking forward, openly admitting his identity. And he went on to reveal more: “We’ve had our eyes on you since the B City material storage. If it weren’t for the Garrison always by your side, we would have killed you long ago, damn it.” Ever since entering the apocalypse, they had not tasted defeat in a long time. The more chaotic the world became, the less restraint they faced, and the more they thrived. So, for Zhu Xianjun and his gang, the continuous loss of so many brothers at the B City material storage was an utterly disgraceful insult. Ma Zai raised his chin, signaling to the Little Gangsters behind him, “Have some fun first; wait for the boss to get here.” The Little Gangsters let out peculiar cries, swarming towards Hua Mi like locusts released from a cage. A “whooshing” sound. Before these Little Gangsters could reach Hua Mi, a massive torrent of chestnuts fell from above, hitting them like a dense rain outside the warehouse. No, it was heavier than rain. The chestnuts, like stones, pummeled down on the heads of Ma Zai and the Little Gangsters. In no time, they were knocked unconscious or dead, their bodies covered in blood.
