Chapter 6: Selling the House

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Can finally had goals in life. He was sure he could not sit still and wait for death. He stroked his chin, mulling over the end of the world. His nightmare was terrifying, but based on the current high temperature, it would likely take some time for the temperature to drop. He had to take advantage of this time to cash in on all the resources in his hands. Although he did not have much cash on hand, he owned ten houses. The current housing price was very high, but it would take more than ten days for him to sell a house. However, as long as he was willing to compromise, he thought that he should be able to sell the houses over the next few days. With money in hand, he would be able to stock up on resources and survive during the apocalypse. As for the loss, he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

Fortunately, Su Can had a good relationship with a realtor because he often rented his houses out. He quickly made up his mind and was determined to find a reliable realtor to put his houses up for sale tonight. Perhaps, someone might make an offer tomorrow.

Not long after Su Can picked up his phone, an extremely eye-catching headline, which was at the top of trending searches, caught his eye.

‘Another group of scientists has been sent to the Arctic research station to investigate the mystery of the rising temperature in the Arctic.’

‘The temperature in the Arctic has been rising? Isn’t this the same as what I saw in my nightmare? The global temperature rose sharply before it suddenly fell rapidly. Following that, the disaster that froze almost everyone to death befell the world…’

Based on the fact that this piece of news was trending, it was obvious that the abnormal weather had attracted everyone’s attention. Moreover, the team of scientists that was sent out comprised several hundred people.

‘Who knows what those scientists can do in the Arctic?’

Su Can clicked on the news with a hint of anticipation in his heart. However, after carefully reading the article twice, he did not find anything special. The article and video only reported that the current temperature was getting more and more extreme. There was no mention of a solution. It did not take long before he shifted his gaze to the comments under the article. A group of people even joked about the situation.

“It’s been extremely hot over the past few days. I didn’t expect that it’s not only hot here but in the Arctic as well… Is the world ending?

“How’s that possible? Earth has always been alternating between hot and cold. It’s not that the world is coming to an end… It’s humans that are coming to an end…”

“Don’t believe the comment above! We’re not ice-cream. How can humans come to an end?”

“Currently, the world’s knowledge and technology are well-developed. Even if we have a climate problem, I’m sure it’ll be solved with the joint efforts of humankind…”

“That’s right! In the past, it was also very hot. Perhaps, things will get better in a few days! Haha!”

After reading the comments that were half-serious and half-joking, Su Can, who had always been optimistic, did not have the mood to join in at all. He only felt very frustrated and panicked.

Although the country’s scientific research team had been sent out, it seemed like no progress had been made for now. Most importantly, it seemed like his nightmare was going to come true soon.

‘As expected, it seems like it won’t be possible to rely on the scientists…’

Su Can closed the page in disappointment and let out a long sigh. He leaned against his bed and held his head, lost in his thoughts.

‘How strange…’

Su Can laughed wryly. His laughter echoed in the empty and silent bedroom.

Previously, Su Can clearly did not have a problem with living one day at a time, but now he was constantly thinking about how to survive the apocalypse. Everything changed drastically after he met Li Jiayue.

‘The power of love is really great,’ Su Can thought to himself as he clicked his tongue.

It seemed like even if there were hundreds of people in the research team, it would not be possible for them to come up with a solution in a short time. Su Can knew he could not place all his hopes on them. It was best to rely on himself.

“Since the temperature is going to drop sharply, I should prepare more things that can help me keep warm first…”

After thinking about it for a moment, Su Can picked up his phone and began to look at things that would help him keep warm.

“Since the world is going to be frozen, the only way to ensure a long-term and stable food source is to grow it ourselves…”

“When the apocalypse arrives, water and electricity will become a big problem…”

“What if Li Jiayue or I fall sick during the apocalypse? What about medicine? What about the medicine’s shelf life?”

Su Can continued searching for information, and before he knew it, the sky was already turning bright. He rubbed his sore eyes and put his phone aside. He had read a lot of information last night, and his mind was in a mess. The pressure to survive the apocalypse was heavy, and he did not have a solution for the time being.

Su Can sat on the bed and took a deep breath. In any case, there was one thing he was sure of at this moment; he had to get money first. With money, he would be able to implement his plans to survive the apocalypse. Without money, everything was useless.

When it was about time, Su Can washed up and quickly put on his coat before he left the house. Last night, he had already made an appointment with the realtor. He was going to sell his houses today!

…

In the real estate agency.

A beautiful female realtor smiled as she handed Su Can a stack of paper and said, “Mr. Su, please sign this property sales contract. Please confirm that you’ll be selling these houses to Mr. Zhang for 25.4 million yuan.”

Su Can forced a smile on his face before he took the contract with trembling hands and said, “Let me have a look at it first…”

‘Damn it! This hurts!’

Su Can’s houses were all located in school districts within the second ring road. According to the market price, each house could be sold for at least 800,000 yuan. He had repeatedly used his ability to confirm that the end of the world was coming before he came to this decision. Otherwise, he would likely procrastinate for another month to ensure he would not suffer losses. Alas, time did not allow him to do this.

Su Can took a deep breath and handed the contract back to the woman before he said firmly, “Miss, these houses are all in the school districts. The price you’re offering is a little too low. You should at least add another 400,000 to each of the houses.”

At this time, Su Can could no longer dwell on his losses. All he could now was try his best to fight for as much as he could. The most important thing was to obtain as much money as he could over the next few days!
