The middle-aged man smacked his thigh and said, “Impossible. What we do here is hard work. Two months are already considered very fast!”

Su Can frowned as he thought to himself, ‘As expected. It seems like I have to fork out more money…’

Finally, Su Can said, “If you can complete it in a month, I’ll give you a 50% increase in salary.”

“Are you serious?”

“Of course,” Su Can said decisively with a nod. Although his heart ached a little, he was racing against time after all. He had no choice but to spend more.

“Very well. I’ll tell my men to start work tomorrow,” the middle-aged man said confidently, “Don’t worry and leave this to us. I guarantee that you’ll be able to see a beautiful new office in a month!”

“Okay, I’ll leave it to you then,” Su Can said, heaving a sigh of relief now that he was done with this matter.

Now that Su Can was done with the construction of the shelter, he had to start obtaining supplies and resources now. Since the temperature was going to drop sharply, he needed to get things like coals or fuel. There was also food and clean water. Apart from daily necessities, it would be best if he could obtain more medicine.

The more Su Can thought about it, the more his head ached. In the past, he could not even be bothered to manage his life, but now, he had to deal with so many things.

After thinking for a moment, Su Can decided to go on the Internet. He brought his phone out and began to search ‘how to survive in an extremely cold environment’.

“As long as you carry an oven with you, you’ll definitely be able to survive in extreme cold.”

Su Can was annoyed as soon as he saw the joking reply. He needed professional replies now. He dismissed the joking reply and began to look for serious replies again. At this time, he suddenly saw a suggested search, ‘Doomsday Survival Group’.

Su Can paused for a moment. It seemed like it would be quite useful to join such a group. At the same time, he could not help but wonder inwardly, ‘Are there people who also realize that a disaster is about strike like me?’

With this thought in mind, Su Can quickly applied to join the group. It did not take long before he was added into the group chat.

[Ding! You’ve joined the ‘Doomsday Survival Group’ group chat.]

Following that, Su Can’s phone was flooded with messages.

“How long do you think it’ll be until the apocalypse arrives?”

“We probably only have a few months left.”

“A few months? How can it be so long? If the weather continues like this, I estimate it’ll only take one or two months.”

‘As expected, they’re the same as me,’ Su Can thought to himself as he raised an eyebrow, ‘Perhaps, I’ll find answers here.’

Su Can did not waste time and quickly sent a message.

“Hello, everyone. I’m a new member. I have a question. If the apocalypse is coming, what should I prepare to survive this crisis?”

Su Can held his phone nervously. After a moment, dozens of replies appeared under his comment.

“That depends on what kind of apocalypse it is…”

“In my opinion, the apocalypse will have something to do with extreme heat. At that time, the world will be hot like hell…”

Following this message, someone sent a video.

When Su Can clicked on the video, he saw a man wearing sunglasses lying in the snow.

Below the video, someone replied, “I’ve already moved to the coldest place on Earth. When the time comes, I won’t be afraid even if hell really comes!”

Su Can was rendered speechless. After a moment, he muttered under his breath, “This is too exaggerated. If it’s global warming, there’s no way to avoid it unless we move to outer space…”

At this time, another message appeared.

“In my opinion, we should be wary of the rise in sea level. For this reason, I bought a few boats.”

Following that, the person sent a picture of a few inflatable boats.

“If the sea level rises uncontrollably, I can use my boats! If I encounter other people, I can also seize the chance and make a fortune. How good would that be?”

“I disagree.”

The corners of Su Can’s lips twitched when he read the messages. He thought he had found a reliable group, but it seemed like these people were just talking nonsense. With this thought in mind, he decided to leave the group. However, just as he was about to leave, a notification for a private chat suddenly popped up.

“You’re also collecting doomsday supplies, right?”

‘Strange. Who’s this? This person seems different from the others.’ Su Can frowned.

The avatar was black, and the username was made up of a string of characters.

Su Can’s frown deepened as he thought to himself, ‘Does this person know something like me? Impossible… Can he also predict the future?’

Su Can quickly opened the other party’s homepage. On the other party’s homepage, there were many posts about surviving the apocalypse, and each post was more detailed than the last. However, these posts mostly taught others about how to survive in extreme heat.

‘Did I guess wrong?’ Su Can could not help but feel slightly disappointed. He thought he had met someone like him.

Just as Su Can was about to put his phone away, the other party sent him another message.

“No matter who you are, and no matter how many supplies you’ve prepared, as someone who knows there’ll be an apocalypse in the future, I want to give you a kind reminder. Don’t casually reveal your knowledge of the apocalypse to others. If you’re reported for spreading misinformation and causing unrest, you’ll be arrested.”

Su Can nodded to himself. He had long thought about this. This was the reason he had silently prepared for everything himself and did not tell another soul about this matter.

If news of the apocalypse spread, there would definitely be widespread panic. At that time, the situation might not be any less dangerous than the apocalypse.

At this time, another message arrived.

“By the way, you asked about supplies to prepare for the apocalypse. There are a few things you need to prepare…”
