Enemies Are All Nourishment for My Fungi..

A budget of a million was for the medical equipment, not including surgical instruments, pharmaceuticals, consumables, and the like; she had bought enough of these in the medical supplies market in East Ridge City and didn’t need to restock for the time being.

The sales clerks from these major stores provided very precise equipment lists, some totaling just over 900,000, while others were a little over a million.

Some shrewd sales clerks even attached supplementary lists after the main list, suggesting additional equipment that could be added if the budget allowed, thus enhancing the medical capabilities of the clinic.

Ye Nai immediately dismissed a supplementary list that included general anesthesia equipment when she came across it.

Her certification only allowed her to administer local anesthesia; a professional anesthesiologist would require additional certification.

Next, she became tempted when she saw another supplementary list that mentioned a full set of minimally invasive surgery equipment.

Although she didn’t know how to use it, she could learn and practice the techniques.

After collecting a pile of lists, she went back to the hotel to study them in detail, and on a separate sheet of paper, she wrote down the items she wanted, thus piecing together an equipment list that satisfied her.

The following day, she returned to the medical equipment market, visited a few shops, and finally found one store where she could get everything she needed, choosing a sub-brand developed by leading companies specifically for the Secret Realm’s medical needs, characterized by low power consumption, compact size, and portability.

For some items, she got more than one unit, with the total amount exceeding two million.

After making her purchases, Ye Nai contacted the customer service for the modular housing manufacturer and bought the house she had her eye on at the factory.

She assembled a classic Courtyard House for herself, complete with ready-to-use kitchen and bathroom facilities that only required a water tank and home appliances to become operational.

She actually had some home appliances, as the furniture and appliances she had dismantled when moving out were swiftly installed by workers in her new home.

For the main house, she chose a large configuration; five main rooms and two wing rooms, which the manufacturer joked was the layout of ancient royalty and nobility.

Each wing room was eighteen square meters, three meters wide and six meters deep, one serving as the kitchen and the other as the bathroom, easily achieving a dry-wet separation, with enough room to fit a washing machine. Clothes taken off before showering could be thrown directly into the machine, eliminating the need for a laundry basket.

Apart from a warm air blower, the bathroom ceiling also had a clothes-rack for drying laundry when the weather was bad or for possibly adding a clothes dryer.

Outside the rooms, there were balconies and steps, and under the extended eaves was a whole row of clothes-racks, available for hanging anything. The sloped rooftop was covered with solar photovoltaic panels connected to storage batteries, supplying electricity for indoor use while also capable of being linked to a generator or a nuclear battery, so electricity was never a concern.

With such a large area for each wing room, the main rooms were even larger, with the central space being forty-eight square meters, eight meters wide and six meters deep, and the four surrounding chambers being the same size as the central space. They were further divided to form two suites, one side as bedrooms and the other as study rooms.

Just this one setup was more than enough for her to live in spaciously; she could perform somersaults inside without hitting anything.

But Ye Nai was not short of cash, and she liked to fill up a complete, bustling Courtyard House.

The side rooms and the back room each consisted of three main rooms with two annex rooms, leaving the corners vacant, with the entrance to the courtyard located at the bottom right corner.

All these rooms were temporarily empty. Aside from the main rooms that had composite wooden flooring and white walls, the side and back rooms had tiled floors and white walls; Ye Nai would handle any modifications personally in the future.

This was her single-occupancy little house in the Secret Realm, with one kitchen and one bathroom being sufficient, there was no need to consider accommodation for others.

At this moment, Ye Nai’s Space played an efficient role in transportation. Four antique-looking large fixtures were placed on a wide-open space in the factory, enclosing the fronts of the four sets of rooms to form a large courtyard. Workers connected them rigidly at the corners; each part featured a unified-height platform and steps, and once they were assembled, these platforms collectively formed a veranda.

Upon entering from the bottom right corner of the courtyard, one would step onto the veranda, protected from wind and rain by the veranda and the eaves overhead, making it impossible to be touched by the weather.

With this thought, Ye Nai immediately decided to use the first room next to the courtyard entrance as a storeroom for rain gear and sundries, to store raincoats, umbrellas, rain boots, bicycle repair tools, and the like.

The center of the courtyard enclosed by the Courtyard House was left open, exposing the ground wherever it was placed. The manufacturer also built a surrounding wall behind the house, not only providing a stable structure but also creating four vacant corners. In the event of future expansions, these four corners would serve as passageways to other courtyards.

The manufacturer specifically instructed that when installing in the Secret Realm, it was essential to level the ground to avoid affecting the stability of the house.

Ye Nai nodded in agreement, relieved that she had purchased a bulldozer.

The hospital was not configured as a large, fixed structure like the Courtyard House; it was designed as a row of small single-story buildings, subdivided into varying numbers of rooms according to function. Medical equipment was installed piece by piece, affixed where necessary, and wired as needed.

There were rooms for wound cleaning, operation rooms, a ward area, and a waiting area—all available as needed. The main consideration was to ensure that in case of treating the injured, the place wouldn’t be too cramped to accommodate the entire hospital structure; the smaller and niftier bungalows were more adaptable to various environments.

With this in mind, Ye Nai purchased additional construction barracks from the manufacturer, an exterior corridor-style two-story building with four rooms, each having a three-meter-high interior. Cooking was done on an external stove, toilets were external, and showers were also based in an external shower room. Despite being outdoor items, they could all be fitted inside a room, arranging a kitchen and a bathroom in minutes.

This construction barracks, with no interior decorations and consisting of double layers of panels and an insulation layer, cost just over five thousand yuan for a set. The small footprint meant that if there was no space for such a barracks, one could simply use a tent.

Seeing her interest in the barracks, the manufacturer immediately offered to give her a rain canopy for free, so she could place the outdoor stove underneath it to avoid the sun and rain, saving the trouble of drilling a hole in the wall for a chimney.

The shrewd salesperson took the opportunity to recommend a set of five outdoor simple shower rooms to pair with the mobile hospital. Injured patients resting in the wards meant the crew also needed to clean themselves, and these shower rooms would suit perfectly.

There was also a complete set of small boilers for heating water. A larger model could heat water even faster, reducing waiting times.

The optimal configuration was to purchase a large-capacity double-barrel boiler; a single fuel stove could heat water for both barrels simultaneously or just one, allowing the preparation of hot water in the double barrels first. When the baths were opened, water from one barrel could be used first. Once it was depleted, the other barrel of hot water would be ready, and the first barrel could start heating more water.

In this way, the cycle continued, significantly reducing the wait time for the boiler to heat water.

Buying a set of five rooms was also useful for Ye Nai herself, saving her from needing to buy a single room unit. The single-room boiler was even more suitable to be placed in her Courtyard House, so when friends and family visited, they wouldn’t have to queue up for a single bathroom.

Ye Nai felt the salesperson made a lot of sense. Therefore, she ordered both configurations; two sets of the five-room variant to set up mobile male and female bathrooms for higher efficiency, and single-room baths to accompany her construction barracks.
