"My dad asked me to stay in the hotel starting today. He said if there are no extra beds here, I will sleep on the floor. If that doesn't work, I will sleep at the door like a stone lion."

Yao Jin's voice was filled with tears when he spoke to the end.

Is this something a father could do?!

Niu pushed a big box in front of Jiang Fei and said, "Miss Jiang, our boss is busy selling goods in Dongyang District and has no time to take care of the little boss, so he asked us to live in the store."

"Inside the box are the gold bars given to you by the big boss. They are used as the hotel fee for me and the little boss."

Jiang Fei was very satisfied.

Boss Yao is quite capable.

"Help me put it on the SUV."

"There is only one empty bed upstairs. You and Yao Jin can squeeze in tonight. I'll send you another bed tomorrow."

"No, there are tools and boards in the small warehouse. I'll make a single bed for them later." Su Liuyuan was a little worried:

"Captain, Wanqing is quitting. Yao Jin can take her place and work as a salesperson at Ping'an Supermarket. But what about cooking?"

Niu, who had just moved the gold, said quickly: "I can do it."

"During the two months of vacation, I learned how to cook from the chef at the boss's house, and I know most of the home-cooked dishes."

"Then I'll leave the cooking to you."

Jiang Fei couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Hostages are really useful.

Su Liuyuan and others were busy in the store, and Lu Yu had to stay behind to help as a temporary salesperson. Jiang Fei drove home with peace of mind and took the gold in the back seat to the supermarket.

[Ding——Gold detected: 40,000 grams]

There wasn't even a progress bar for unlocking the area, so she couldn't imagine how much gold she still needed to get to the next area.

I hope Wang Quezi and Yao Damang can sell more!

Ping An's two stores resumed business. Jiang Fei became a hands-off manager and stayed indoors for the family on the pretext of "recruiting his health".

Actually, it means going into a supermarket and using farm machinery to harvest wheat.

1,000 kilograms of wheat produced a total of 800 kilograms of flour.

Jiang Fei packed the plants grown from the herbs into woven bags, large cloth bags and plastic bags that he had found before and carried out rhizome propagation again.

They also started an excavator and dug an acre of pond next to the fish pond.

I used the water from the fountain pool and raised 100 crayfish.

The river crabs in the small pond had yet to lay eggs, so she couldn't just sit there and wait, so she decided to raise crayfish first.

This thing can be cooked spicy, with garlic, steamed, or with thirteen spices. It tastes good no matter how you cook it.

With an additional pond, Jiang Fei went to the supermarket warehouse to find some wooden boards and sticks and made three signs.

One piece is written with black fish pond, one piece is written with shrimp pond, and one piece is written with crayfish pond.

They were inserted respectively on the edges of the corresponding small ponds.

This is her aquaculture area!

After staying in the supermarket for nearly half a month, Jiang Fei came out and looked outside through the window.

The iron plates on the windows had been removed, leaving only the foam strips filling the gaps.

The strong wind stopped and the sky turned from blowing sand to floating dust.

The air was still turbid and the whole city was a dull khaki color, but visibility was much better.

The temperature also dropped to 40℃.

Thinking about Dao Rong, Jiang Fei put on a face mask and a protective mask and drove an off-road vehicle to the planting base.

Along the way, I saw many pedestrians wearing protective equipment.

The Safety Institute recently issued a notice to resume work and modified everyone's working hours.

Work from 8:00 to 18:00 every day, with a two-hour break at noon.

The water supply time for each community has been changed to 18:30-19:00.

A lot of people survived. I have to be more careful when storing and retrieving things in the supermarket warehouse in the future.

Jiang Fei was thinking and arrived at the place.

Ling Zhaorui was eating in the cafeteria. Seeing Jiang Fei coming, he used his work badge to get one for her.

Two vegetarian dishes, one meat dish and one soup, and the staple food is brown rice.

Jiang Fei took a bite of the green pepper potato chips and found them tasted okay.

"Has Xiao Rong come to work?"

Ling Zhaorui nodded and whispered, "I've been secretly watching Shang Su recently. He hasn't made any move on Xiaorong. The words he said were more like encouragement and praise for her."

“Whatever you do is great, you have to believe in yourself.”

"I think Shang Su doesn't have that kind of thoughts towards Xiao Rong. He just treats her like a kid."

Knowing it was a misunderstanding, Jiang Fei finally let go of his worries.

Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind.

"Ms. Jiang?"

"What a coincidence, we meet again. Why are you eating in the cafeteria?"

Seeing that it was Shang Su, Ling Zhaorui lowered his head and ate his meal guiltily.

Who understands! I just finished talking about someone behind his back, and here comes the real person!

Jiang Fei was calmer than Ling Zhaorui and started to make up a story: "I'm here to deliver protective equipment to Zhaorui and have lunch on the way."

Shang Su smiled and said, "It's great that Zhao Rui has a friend like you."

"There are not many seats left in the cafeteria. Can I sit here?"

It was peak meal time and the cafeteria was crowded, but Jiang Fei did not refuse.

Shang Su sat next to Ling Zhaorui.

The three of them chatted idly, mostly about Fu Chentian and the planting base.

After quickly finishing his meal, Jiang Fei left.

Ling Zhaorui also stood up: "Senior, take your time eating. I'll go to the dormitory for a nap."

"Okay." Shang Su watched Ling Zhaorui leave, a gleam of light in his eyes.

He knew that Ling Zhaorui had been secretly watching him these past few days.

It must have been Dao Rong’s reaction that day that made Jiang Fei suspicious.

Jiang Fei has a good relationship with Director Zheng, Director Ning, and the teacher, and he also knows the young master of the Mo family in Kyoto.

No matter what level of relationship it is, he can't afford to offend.

It’s a pity that Dao Rong cannot be touched.

The meat of people with pure minds is the most delicious.

Shang Su picked up a piece of pork and put it in his mouth, his eyes full of disgust, planning to cook for himself after dinner.

—

Three days passed in a flash, and it was the day when Wang Quezi and Yao Damang delivered gold for the first time.

After harvesting the ripe fruits and vegetables from the plantations and orchards and planting a new batch of crops, Jiang Fei left the supermarket and went downstairs.

I went to 203 first to collect the gold earned by the two stores during this period.

[Ding——Gold detected: 552500 grams]

The idea is good!

Jiang Fei went to 204 to take a look.

Half of the goods were missing, so we took out some old supplies to replenish them, plus 50 boxes of cigars and 100 bottles of foreign liquor, which were considered the store's specialties.

Next time Su Liuyuan sees the restock, he will take it to the store and sell it.

After replenishing the goods, Jiang Fei drove to Xixi Street.

Lu Yu, Su Liuyuan, and Yao Jin stood at the entrance of Ping An Mini Mart.

Two members of the patrol team forcibly handcuffed a man who was cursing.

Jiang Fei, who was in the car, could hear the man cursing.

"When I was enjoying the best food and the best drinks, you were just struggling rats at the bottom of society!"

"If it weren't for the end of the world, what qualifications would you lowly people have to talk to me?!"

"Shut up!" The team member immediately dragged the man away.

Jiang Fei got out of the car and walked over: "What happened?"

"Just now this guy came to the store to buy something, but he had no money to pay and was swearing. Yao Jin called him a poor guy, and the two started arguing. Lu Yu contacted the nearby patrol team to arrest him."

“This person used to live in a wealthy area.”

Su Liuyuan couldn't help smacking his lips. "The situation over there is really miserable. After the riots, the houses haven't been repaired yet, and they were hit by a sandstorm. Many people are bankrupt."

"I heard that the area of the wealthy area has shrunk by one-third."

Jiang Fei is not interested in things happening in the wealthy area.

As soon as he entered the store, Lu Yu spoke with a serious expression.

"The team members just told me that all three elderly people are missing this week."

"The patrol team received an order from above to investigate and found that five elderly people had mysteriously disappeared before the sandstorm arrived. The higher-ups suspected that they were escaped rioters seeking revenge against the security station."

"Everyone should be careful when going out recently, because we don't know whether they will attack young people."

"It's better to kill those bastards who are causing trouble! Leave the good people behind!"

Yao Jin said angrily, as if he remembered something, and said to Jiang Fei:

"My dad said that it's hard to get through the channels in Dongyang District. He hasn't got the qualification certificate to sell goods there yet. He will try to get it done this month."

Jiang Fei: "One week at most. If he still can't get the qualification certificate, let him come to me and I will handle it."

After all, she has Director Ning and Director Zheng behind her.

It’s a small problem to get a certificate!

Yao Jin didn't know about the Chen family's donation meeting, and looked suspicious: "You? How are you going to deal with it? With violence or by deception?"

He still remembers how the poor bastard stole his gold!

Lu Yu glanced at Yao Jin and asked, "Did you mop the floor?"

Yao Jin, who had been looking at others with disdain in the previous second, immediately went to work obediently.

Jiang Fei was confused.

Yao Jin listens to Lu Yu so much???

Seeing Jiang Fei's confusion, Su Liuyuan lowered his voice and said, "Yao Jin provoked Lu Yu a few days ago, and he was beaten up by him with one hand."

"Yao Jin refused to accept the defeat, so Lu Yu continued to beat him. He didn't hit him in the face, but only in the body, until he became obedient."

"Niu wanted to help, but ended up getting beaten up together. Now the two of them are obedient to Lu Yu's every word."

Jiang Fei silently gave a thumbs up.

The team members are still strong. They can beat people even when they are injured!

—

The store closed at nine in the evening, and Jiang Fei and others went to the first floor of the branch to eat.

Niu Er had already prepared the food and brought it to the table with Jiang Zhengkang and Han Yang.

Stir-fried special cabbage, broccoli with garlic, braised pork in a pot, stir-fried meat with peppers, and chicken legs with sauce.

Seeing the delicious food, Jiang Fei picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of pork.

The pork is tender and slightly spicy, perfect for eating with rice.

“The craftsmanship is quite good.”

Jiang Fei had just praised Niu Niu for a moment when he heard the sound of footsteps coming up the stairs.

When I turned around, I saw a shiny boiled egg.
