"Grandpa Xu, I have handed this matter over to Assistant He. He knows how to handle it." Yao Ran said with a faint smile on her pale lips.

After hearing this, Grandpa Xu calmed down. He nodded and said, "Assistant He is a capable person."

He paused for a second before asking curiously, "Ran Ran, why did you suddenly think of calling me? Do you finally agree to meet my useless grandson?"

Yao Ran heard the teasing in Grandpa Xu's voice and smiled, "Grandpa Xu, I call you for another matter. I need your help."

"Hm? What help do you need from an old man like me?"

Yao Ran did not hesitate and answered, "Grandpa Xu, I want to buy weapons. Can you help me?"

After hearing this, Grandpa Xu was silent for a while and said, "Old Yao left a lot of money for you. You are right. You need to be prepared and protect yourself."

He thought for a moment and asked, "How many weapons do you need?"

Yao Ran knew little about weapons. As long as they can be used to kill people, they are good weapons.

She thought for a second and replied, "The more, the better. I don't know much about weapons, so I will leave it to you, Grandpa Xu."

Grandpa Xu touched his chin and asked, "How much are you willing to spend on it?"

Based on the asset list and cash given to her by Assistant He three months ago, Yao Ran should be able to earn at least tens of billions after selling all her assets and company.

After thinking for a while, she replied, "I can spend two to five billion to buy weapons and bullets."

When Grandpa Xu heard this, he was surprised and asked, "Ran Ran, do you want to build an army?"

Yao Ran chuckled and said, "Grandpa Xu, in addition to weapons, I also want explosives. If you can find some helicopters, military vehicles, or boats, I'd like those too."

After listening to her requests, Grandpa Xu laughed, "Child, you really want a lot. Fine. Grandpa will see what I can do for you. However, I can't guarantee that I can get everything you want."

Hearing this, Yao Ran breathed a sigh of relief. "Then I will trouble Grandpa Xu with this matter. I will send the money as soon as possible."

After hearing her polite words, Grandpa Xu laughed again, "You don't have to be so polite to me. Just send me the money whenever you have it."

"All right. Then I won't disturb your rest. See you later, Grandpa Xu."

After ending the call with Grandpa Xu, the big stone in Yao Ran's heart finally fell. As long as she can get the weapon, she will be safe at the beginning of the end of the world.

After settling the weapons matter, Yao Ran made a few more calls to buy a large amount of medicine and fuel. Because the government also controls fuel and medicine, she needs to spend more than six billion through a secret connection to reserve enough medicine and fuel to last her ten lifetimes.

By the time she finished the call, it was already lunchtime. Just as the nurse came to deliver lunch, her cell phone rang. Yao Ran looked at the caller's name and pressed the answer button.

"Assistant He, what's wrong?"

Assistant He's calm voice came from the other end of the phone, "Miss, Gu Group heard that you were going to sell the company, so they came to me and said they were willing to buy the company from you."

Gu Group is Yao Group's biggest and strongest competitor in the business circle. For decades, the two companies battled each other, with neither one able to defeat the other. Yao Ran was not surprised that Gu Group wanted to acquire her company when they got the news.

"How much are they willing to pay?" She asked calmly.

"Twenty billion."

Yao Ran spent more than eleven billion in a few hours, and she still needed to purchase a large amount of supplies. Combined with money from other assets, she barely had enough money to buy other supplies.

She thought for a moment and said, "Double the price. If Gu Group weren't willing to spend the money, spread the news and let other companies bid for the company. The highest bidder will have the opportunity to acquire the Yao Group."

Assistant He couldn't help but swallow when he heard what she just said. In one sentence, she dared to double the Gu Group's offer.

If the Gu Group refuses, the Gu family will face another enemy after the acquisition that may be more powerful than the Yao family. But if they agree and spend forty billion at once, the Gu family's foundation will be harmed. Miss Yao's move is too ruthless!

Assistant He was stunned for a few seconds and then came to his senses, "I understand."

"Have you taken care of other things?" Yao Ran asked.

Assistant He replied, "Yes, Miss, everything that can be sold has been taken care of. However, it may take a few weeks to sell everything."

Yao Ran was very satisfied with his work efficiency and said, "Very good. Just transfer the money directly to my account."

"All right."

After asking a few more questions, Yao Ran hung up the phone and looked at the small wooden box on the table. The next second, she touched it, and the small wooden box disappeared. Since Lan Lifei has taken a fancy to this jade pendant, Yao Ran will never let her have a chance to take a look at it in this life.

While Yao Ran was busy contacting people and hoarding supplies that couldn't be bought through regular channels, something happened in her space. Without her noticing, the small wooden box disappeared as soon as it was placed in the space.
