"What exactly does the supply and marketing cooperative sell?" Finally, someone in the crowd couldn't help but ask the question that everyone was wondering about.

Lin Feng's smile widened.

"Go in and see for yourselves, and you'll see."

Before he finished speaking, some of the people closest to him couldn't contain their curiosity and rushed toward the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Li Luoshen, Chen Jing, and Xiao Ya followed the crowd, their hearts pounding with excitement, as they entered the mysterious supply and marketing cooperative.

The moment they stepped across the threshold, a warm breeze, a blend of the scent of wood, dried spices, and some indescribably sweet aroma, wafted towards them.

The next second, they were completely stunned by what they saw.

The interior of the supply and marketing cooperative was far more spacious and bright than they had imagined. Several huge glass windows let in the morning sunlight without reservation, making the entire hall bright and airy.

Rows of shelves made of light-colored wood are neatly arranged. On the shelves, a wide variety of goods are displayed.

Everyone slowed their pace, afraid of disturbing this dreamlike scene.

Their eyes greedily scanned every item on the shelves, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Oh my god... what is that?" Xiaoya's fingertips trembled slightly as she pointed to the shelf closest to the door.

On the shelves, rows of red and white metal cans, which they were very familiar with, were neatly arranged.

The can is printed with flowing white ribbon-like characters written in Chinese.

"Coca Cola?"

Chen Jing adjusted her glasses, which were about to slip off, and read out the name that made her soul tremble, word by word.

This name was like a key, instantly unlocking the floodgates of their memories.

The icy, bubbly, sweet, and magical liquid that could wash away all worries was once an ordinary part of their lives.

"It really is Coca-Cola!"

"My God, is Mr. Lin a god? He can even create this?"

The crowd erupted in cheers. A daring combatant, his hand trembling, reached out and grabbed a can from the shelf.

The cool metallic touch and the familiar weight moved her to tears.

"How much? How much is this?" she shouted eagerly to Ruan Mengtian, who was standing behind the counter.

Ruan Mengtian maintained her sweet smile and pointed to a small wooden sign hanging on the shelf.

It reads in charcoal: [Coca-Cola: 0.2 gold coins/can]

0.2 gold yuan!

The price initially stunned everyone, but then sparked a huge wave of surprise.

You can earn 3 gold coins by working hard all day, which means that you can get a can of this dream drink in less than an hour!

"Give me one can! No! Give me five cans!" The combatant immediately pulled a gold coin from his waist pouch and slapped it on the counter.

"Okay, please wait a moment." Ruan Mengtian skillfully took the gold coins, then took four cans of Coca-Cola from under the counter and handed them to her.

She took the Coke and eagerly used the multi-tool provided by the shelter to pry open one of the cans.

"laugh!"

The familiar, pleasant sound of bubbles filled the air, and a rich aroma of caramel instantly filled the air.

She tilted her head back and gulped down a large mouthful.

"ha!"

A sigh filled with utter satisfaction escaped her throat.

A blissful expression, almost obsessive, appeared on her face.

"That's the taste...that's exactly the taste! Exactly the same!"

She shouted excitedly.

Her reaction became the best advertisement.

The crowd was instantly ignited.

"I want one too! Give me two cans!"

"Give me a can to try!"

"President Mengtian, is there any more? Don't sell out!"

A long queue immediately formed in front of the counter.

Li Luoshen and Xiaoya excitedly joined the queue. Xiaoya clutched her purse tightly, her face flushed red: "Sister Luoshen, can we buy a can too? I...I really want to drink it!"

“Okay, we’ll buy it.” Li Luoshen nodded with a smile, her own mouth watering with anticipation.

They quickly bought two cans.

When Li Luoshen held the cold metal can in her hand, she even felt a sense of unreality. She carefully opened it and handed one can to Xiaoya.

Xiaoya imitated the woman from before, eagerly taking a big gulp, then happily squinting her eyes, making a satisfied "gurgling" sound in her throat like a kitten.

"Mmm...it tastes so good...it's the taste of happiness..."

Li Luoshen also took a small sip.

The cool liquid slid down her throat, countless tiny bubbles bursting on her tongue, and that familiar sweetness with its unique spice aroma instantly awakened all her fond memories of the past.

She saw that Chen Jing, the doctor who always remained calm and rational, was also holding a can of Coca-Cola, and her eyes behind her glasses were already covered with a thin layer of mist.

They continued walking deeper into the supply and marketing cooperative.

Soon, they discovered a new surprise.

On a shelf, there were golden, crispy things wrapped in transparent oil paper.

The wooden sign reads: 【Crispy Potato Chips (Original/BBQ): 0.3 Gold Dollars/Pack】

Next to it, there was a long, thin snack with a shiny red oil, packaged in a vacuum-sealed plastic bag (yes, they actually saw plastic bags!).

[Spicy Flavored Strips: 0.3 yuan/pack]

"Potato chips! Spicy strips!" Xiaoya's exclamation changed tone.

If Coca-Cola is everyone's dream, then these two things are simply irresistible to young girls!

Without hesitation, they each bought a pack. Tearing open the packaging, the rich, overpowering aroma made their mouths water uncontrollably.

Xiaoya picked up a spicy strip and carefully put it into her mouth.

The next second, her eyes widened instantly. The chewy texture, a blend of sweet, salty, spicy, and savory flavors, made her so happy she almost jumped for joy.

"Waaaah... Sister Luo Shen, Sister Chen Jing, you have to try this! It's so delicious! It's better than any spicy snack I've ever had before!"

Li Luoshen also picked up a potato chip and put it in her mouth.

"Snap!"

The crisp crackling sound was so delightful. The caramelized aroma and subtle saltiness of the sweet potato spread in her mouth, giving her an unparalleled sense of satisfaction.

That's the allure of junk food!

A pure, pleasurable sense of decadence.

They continued their exploration.

They saw liquids in exquisite glass bottles, some clear and some amber in color.

【Winter Spirits (Vodka): 2 Gold Dollars/Bottle】

Rye Beer: 0.5 gold coins/bottle

【Snow Fruit Wine (Fruit Wine): 1 Gold Yuan/Bottle】

They even saw crystal-clear glass cups, each one like a work of art.

Crystal glass: 0.1 gold coin/each

Besides these "luxury goods," the supply and marketing cooperative also had many practical daily necessities.

For example, underwear and socks made of soft animal hides and cotton linen that are more comfortable than the uniformly distributed ones.

For example, soaps and shampoos that smell of different flowers and herbs.

For example, needles and thread, buttons, durable work gloves, and even colorful hair ties that girls love to use to tie their hair.

Every item is reasonably priced.

They are not necessities for survival like food, but they can greatly improve the quality of life and happiness.

Li Luoshen saw that many female members were gathered around the shelves of soaps and hair ties, their eyes gleaming with longing as they carefully counted the gold coins in their pockets.

At this moment, they are no longer refugees struggling to survive in the wasteland, but vibrant women with their own preferences and pursuits.

Lin Feng, the creator of all this, simply stood quietly outside the door, watching the lively yet orderly scene inside, a barely perceptible smile on his lips.

Now the entire shelter belongs to him.

He prints the money; he can print as much as he wants.

He made the laws; he can kill whomever he wants.

Everything here belongs to him.

No one dared to disobey his ideas.

This is his kingdom.

His private kingdom.
