Chapter 1403: Finding a Shelter
Vladimir was the first to rush into the store.
He did not choose those fancy luxury goods that could not even be put into the washing machine, but instead chose thick fur.
After an icy snowstorm, heavy fur is the best choice.
In Vladimir's hometown, when the winter cold wave comes, the temperature can even reach minus 50 or 60 degrees Celsius, and he wears fur to spend the winter.
The clothes at Paris Fashion Week are just for look. If you really wear them during the winter, you can get a fresh piece of frozen meat in less than three minutes.
Vladimir even took a cart and put all the furs he liked in it.
Others went straight to the luxury goods section and took the highest-priced items.
After a few hours, these will appear on Yipai.
After Vladimir had purchased enough furs, he pushed his cart out of the store and began his shopping journey.
After the clothing problem is solved, the next is the food problem.
The best place to buy these things is the supermarket, which is in the next street and is not available here.
Vladimir had to go shopping for other things.
On the corner, Vladimir saw a car dealership.
The cars here are all luxury cars, most of which are low-slung sports cars.
Vladimir doesn't like this kind of car. In his hometown, this kind of car can't even get into the yard of his farm. If it doesn't go more than two meters, the chassis will be scratched.
He prefers muscle cars, preferably big pickup trucks, that's more interesting.
Vladimir found a semi-new Ford pickup truck in the backyard, which was probably used by the store to purchase goods, with the car keys thrown on the car.
Vladimir threw everything in the cart onto the pickup truck and drove it straight out of the back door of the yard.
The back door of the yard just faces a gun shop.
Seeing the gun shop, Vladimir 's eyes lit up.
Although gun ownership is allowed in his hometown, the procedures are very cumbersome.
Now that you're here, there's no need to be polite.
Vladimir selected several AR15s and some accessories. After equipping them with these auxiliary accessories, these AR15s became automatic rifles with continuous fire.
Vladimir also picked up a few large-caliber shotguns, which are excellent weapons for dealing with wild beasts.
As for bullets, Vladimir chose large-caliber single-headed bullets, the kind that could blow a person's head apart with one shot.
The most popular item in a gun store is a pistol.
Not only are there all kinds of military and civilian versions of pistols, there are also customized models for women and children, painted with SpongeBob SquarePants, so that every child can choose their favorite weapon.
Vladimir was not interested in those small-caliber pistols, thinking they were only used by women.
He chose two Colt revolvers.
As for bullets, he simply moved ten boxes.
This is enough for him to consume for the next thirty days.
In addition to the weapons, Vladimir went to the outdoor equipment store and picked up a complete set of tools.
Especially gasoline saws, he took six of them, and even hung a wood chipper on the back of a pickup truck.
This thing can directly break huge wood into pieces, making them easy to burn.
After packing all these, Vladimir went to the supermarket.
Instead of going to the counter, he went directly to the warehouse at the back.
A whole box of premium steaks was thrown into the car.
A variety of high-quality organic vegetables are also available for free.
Chocolate candies were stockpiled in large quantities.
Anyway, there will be a cold wave in 24 hours, and these things will be frozen quickly if thrown outside, so there is no need to worry about them going bad.
Vladimir also moved a few boxes of canned fast food .
This stuff is his last reserve. If there is something else to eat, he won't eat these cans.
When Vladimir drove back to Central Park, Natasha had been waiting for a long time.
"I have chosen a villa not far away. It has a huge fireplace and some firewood. If we store some more wood, it will be enough for us to survive the winter."
Natasha said.
"Is it reliable? Don't wait until the master comes back tomorrow."
Vladimir was a little worried.
"I asked around, and the owners are a newlywed couple. They went on a cruise and won't be back for more than a month."
Natasha said.
"Really? That's awesome."
Vladimir was very happy to hear that there was a ready-made house to live in.
Being able to live in a house is much better than the cabin he built himself.
Moreover, this is Central Park, and the police are not blind. If we openly cut down trees to build houses, I'm afraid they will have to drive bulldozers over .
"Where is the house?"
"I'll show you the way."
The two drove all the way to a villa next to the park.
The villa is very large, with front and back gardens and two heated swimming pools.
The most speechless thing is that even if there is no one, these two constant temperature swimming pools are always open.
Vladimir estimated that the electricity bill for this month was 10,000 to 20,000 kWh.
"I hope they can still smile when they see the bill. No, they probably won't see the bill."
Vladimir shook his head.
Vladimir's eyes lit up as he parked the car in the garage.
Because in addition to several sports cars, there was actually a RV parked in the garage.
With its twelve-wheel structure and sufficient power, it is a suitable means of transportation if you want to move.
After parking the car, the two began to check the situation inside the house.
The main body of the villa is a two-story building with a basement.
The walls are a rare reinforced concrete structure, which can provide insulation.
The only drawback is that it is not thick enough, and there are large floor-to-ceiling windows everywhere for lighting.
It's fine at normal times, but when a cold wave comes, this kind of wall has no insulation at all.
There is no fundamental difference between being in such a house and being outdoors.
Even a storm carrying broken ice particles can directly shatter the large glass.
Vladimir planned to buy some wood during the day to make the wall thicker.
It should be at least half a meter, which is the insulation standard for the house in his hometown.
It is best to add thermal insulation materials inside, and hang a blanket inside to soundproof and keep warm.
Vladimir took out his measuring tape and began to measure the area of the house, calculating the amount of materials needed.
There is a large fireplace on the first floor of the house, and some wood is piled in the warehouse, but it is more symbolic than practical.
Vladimir planned to buy some more firewood. If it was not enough, he would have to go to Central Park to cut some trees when the cold wave subsided.
What made Vladimir happiest was that the basement of the villa was actually a wine cellar.
There are a large number of various kinds of alcohol stored inside.
Although most of them are left-over wines.
In the corner, Vladimir found several bottles of precious vintage gin, commonly known as gin or gin.
The alcohol content of this wine is about the same as that of vodka, so it can barely be a substitute for vodka.
