Little Landlord in the End of the World (MTL)

"Miss, I didn't expect you to come here to refuel again today. I remember you came here just the day before yesterday." The fat uncle at the gas station

　　"Yeah, I run a lot these days and consume a lot of fuel." Qin Suyun was also wearing a black down jacket, simple work gloves, and a black peaked cap, talking to the other party with a smile. However, she secretly felt a sense of vigilance in her heart. She planned not to come to the gas station in front of her again this week.

　　The management of gas stations is very strict. She once secretly asked the employees of two more remote gas stations if they could sell her gasoline separately. For this reason, she was willing to spend double the money to buy it. However, these gas station employees were very vigilant and abided by the rules of the gas station. Even if she finally raised the price to five times, they would not relent and sell her the gasoline alone.

　　With no other option, Qin Suyun had no choice but to go to the car rental agency again, rent a dusty and inconspicuous medium-sized truck with a relatively large fuel tank, and embark on the long process of refueling, pumping gas, and then going to a gas station to refuel.

　　The gasoline she drew out was placed separately in the oil storage barrel she had prepared before. Although there is no way to buy gasoline separately, you can still buy the large oil drums on the market separately, but the process of pulling the gasoline out of the tank and refilling it will be more troublesome.

　　Fortunately, the fuel tank of the truck she rented is really big. One tank can hold 180L when full. The large oil drum she bought can only hold 200L, so she can draw out a drum after refilling it almost every time. Oil comes. But she didn't dare to draw out all the oil at once. After all, after pumping gas, you still have to run to the next gas station.

　　There is only one gas station close to Wanxi Village, and you have to drive nearly 40 to 50 kilometers to see the next one.

　　Therefore, she can only work harder when taking urban routes. She is not in a hurry to take the expressway, and directly takes the county-level highways. These are interspersed with gas stations on the roads in the city and county towns. Every time after refueling, she would follow the navigation on her mobile phone to find the next target. After finding the target and calculating the distance, she would look for an opportunity to drive the car The oil in the car was pumped out and poured into the oil drum placed in the back of the car.

　　But this kind of action is too strange, and each time it stays for a long time, I was almost regarded as an oil thief several times.

　　Fortunately, no one is too nosy these days, and every time she takes the gasoline out of the tank, she will try to change it to another place next time, so she doesn't cause too much trouble. At most, some people came up to ask a few questions, but she gave them other excuses.

　　For example, let's say I bought a gasoline generator and want to get some oil, but the gas station doesn't sell it and I have to pump it myself.

　　Using this crude and simple method, Qin Suyun collected nearly thirty barrels of gasoline in these days, and the amount of gasoline collected continued to grow. Whenever she went to the city to purchase other supplies these days, , will bring back one or two more barrels. After all, there will definitely be a shortage of gasoline in the future. If she can collect more now, she will have more capital in the future.

　　"Oh, I don't know what's going on with the weather this year. It's so abnormal. It was so hot more than half a month ago, and now it's snowing. It's not easy for those of you who run long distances." The gas station uncle While cheering, he chatted with Qin Suyun, "But it suddenly became cold that day and after three days of snow, I feel that the weather has finally returned to what it was before. Although the weather outside is cold, my heart - —Be practical!... Especially after the national TV station invited many meteorological experts to explain why the weather has been abnormal these days... I am relieved."
