Surprisingly, she actually found one, right across from the mission hall. It used to be a supermarket, but it was just rented out.

Fang Xiyue checked in directly.

[Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in and received a supermarket.]

Fang Xiyue, refusing to believe it, checked in a second time.

[Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in and acquired ownership of the supermarket.]

That's more like it!

Fang Xiyue set up the supermarket directly, and posted warning signs at the entrance.

Anyway, she warned that if anyone insisted on barging in to steal things, she wouldn't be responsible for what happened.

Since this is feasible, Fang Xiyue plans to open a special ability center and a supermarket in each of the other cities.

Although the military would take back and sell the supplies in the city, they did not have fresh fruits, vegetables, or meat.

"Hey, a new supermarket has opened here? Who's got the guts to do this? Opening a supermarket at this time of year is bound to get them robbed!"

A team of survivors passing by saw the supermarket and were a little worried for the owner.

"Didn't you see the warning sign? Who would dare to go in and rob it? But seeing this sign suddenly makes me want to give it a try!"

"That sounds too far-fetched. I'll go in and give it a try."

A man carrying an axe walked into the supermarket and went crazy when he saw the fresh fruits and vegetables inside.

He lunged at the fruit stand, grabbed an apple, and was about to take a bite when he bit into thin air, throwing himself out and crashing to the ground.

"Oh my!"

The man rubbed his lower back and stood up.

"Holy crap, it's real! There were so many fruits, vegetables and meat inside. I was just about to eat an apple when I was thrown out."

Upon hearing that there were fresh ingredients, everyone else rushed in.

This time, however, they didn't eat it directly. Instead, they packed it in a small basket and went to the cashier to pay.

There was no one at the cashier, only a coin-swiping machine, a crystal core placement point, and a goods placement area.

"How do I buy this? What are crystal coins?"

Everyone was at a loss. What should they do?

Fang Xiyue and the others watched for a while before finally going inside.

"You can first go to the crystal coin exchange office across the street to apply for crystal coin carriers, and then exchange the collected materials or crystal cores for crystal coins, which you can then use here."

Alternatively, you can pay directly with crystal cores. Simply place the item you want to buy here, and the price will be displayed.

These are 30 Level 1 crystal cores; you can just put them here.

Fang Xiyue demonstrated it to them. The man took out the crystal core and placed it at the designated spot. Sure enough, the crystal core disappeared.

His belongings were automatically packed, and the man was not stopped when he left carrying two large bags.

Some people saw this and tried to follow him out, but they were thrown outside, and the goods they were holding were put back in their original positions.

Holy crap! That's amazing!

Having witnessed this scene firsthand, everyone became interested in the owner of the shop.

The survivor who had been thrown out rubbed his back and stood up, intending to go back and buy it with crystal cores, only to find that he couldn't get back in at all.

"Haha, you're on the blacklist just like me."

The man who was thrown out first stood there and mocked the man who had just stood up.

It seems this warning is truly being kept.

They had no choice but to ask the guys inside to buy them for them, promising to give them the crystal cores when they came out.

The two went to the crystal coin exchange counter across the street. Battalion Commander Zhao had already set up the crystal coin exchange machine and was processing crystal coin carriers for the soldiers.

Once inside, the two of them were like quails, unsure whether to move forward or not, and finally reluctantly joined the back of the line.

Fang Xiyue stayed in the supermarket for a while, and only came out after seeing that everyone understood how to operate.

However, to reduce hassle, Fang Xiyue placed a small TV on the wall behind the cashier to show how to shop, which proved quite useful.

An hour later, Xiu Jie and the other two returned. Xiu Jie had clearly been crying.

Dandan explained to everyone that they had indeed found Sister Xiu's ex-husband and child.

However, Xiu Jie's son doesn't recognize her at all, treats her very badly, and even curses and bites her.

The ex-husband and his current wife also ridiculed Sister Xiu, telling her not to even think about trying to climb up to them.

Sister Xiu finally realized that her son was no longer hers, and in the end, she could only return home heartbroken.

"Sister Xiu, look ahead and don't force things."

Fang Xiyue offered some simple words of comfort to Sister Xiu. At this point, no matter how much she said, the other person wouldn't listen. Only she could figure things out herself.

"Battalion Commander Zhao, we're heading to Jiangcheng now. We'll call you when we get there."

Su Zheyu shouted at Battalion Commander Zhao, and then the four of them went up to the rooftop to board the helicopter and depart.

——

On August 20th, the 68th day of the apocalypse, Fang Xiyue and her group arrived at their final stop, Water City.

During this time, they traveled to 16 cities, opened 16 superpowered entertainment centers and 16 supermarkets.

The supermarkets in Ningcheng, Yangcheng, and Haicheng were specially opened on the way from the north to the south.

We can't favor one over the other, so now the main managers of each city have been put into a group chat.

If they were to chat amongst themselves and get caught, it would be terrible; Fang Xiyue felt she would be scolded to death.

So, without waiting for them to say anything, I went and started driving it myself.

In these 16 cities, the soldiers of Xingcheng obtained a total of more than 5 million crystal cores, which is not a small amount.

All the crystal cores went to Fang Xiyue, which offset the cost of the ability upgrade fluid and awakening fluid they bought, and was just enough for their needs.

These zombie cores weren't all obtained by clearing out safe zones.
