Chapter 10 Going to the Market and Encountering Bugs
There are many leisure and entertainment facilities and banks around the 4S stores, which makes it convenient to transfer money and apply for loans.
The money was no longer valuable, but many people were still curious about the inside of the banks and pried open the doors of several of them.
The place was in a mess, the vault and the safe were pried open, and a lot of things were taken away. But before they left, they seemed to have no use for them, so they were thrown everywhere.
"Oh my god, gold bars, diamonds and jewelry, is it really okay to waste such precious things like this? I have never seen so many good things in my life. Sister, can you take them away?"
"Yes, it's not worth much, but it looks good."
"Yeah, I think so too. Sis, take your time and I'll pry open all the doors."
Miaomiao is busy and having a lot of fun.
The generals and ministers watched coldly, saying that humans are a peculiar kind of creatures. What good is there in something hard and tasteless?
After collecting items from several banks, I went to various entertainment facilities, where I enjoyed foot washing, massage, and facials from head to toe. I collected a lot of massage chairs, essence facial cleansers, facial masks, etc. If I open a store, I will not be out of stock in ten years. I also collected a lot in shopping malls before, which I can use and throw away in the future.
There is also a super large baby store here, which sells everything from 0 to ten years old, from physical health to mental health, physical development to intellectual development, play to learning. Lan Shiruo wanted to uproot the building and really leave only four walls.
Miaomiao swallowed her saliva and asked, "Sister, can Xiaolebao handle this?"
"It's okay. Just leave it alone if you can't play it. Let's go to the next place."
Miaomiao could never understand the feelings of a mother. She would post pictures of her baby on WeChat Moments anytime and anywhere, buy things for her baby, and even think of bringing some water back for her baby. So, mother's love is great. I suddenly miss my mother.
"Sister, I also want to be a mother. Can you help me find a partner in the future?"
Lan Shiruo's mouth twitched slightly. She had never thought that she could do this. "Find it yourself."
"All right."
The next goal is high-end restaurants. Many rare ingredients can be found in these places. I couldn’t afford them before, and it’s hard to say what I can afford in the future.
"Woo woo," someone said.
Outside the luxurious Western restaurant, generals and ministers stopped.
Lan Shiruo frowned, "A lot?"
"Woo woo," a lot.
I thought to myself, "What a shame! Let's go to the next place. There are quite a few people here."
Miaomiao swallowed her saliva. Coming from the countryside, she had never eaten Western food. She had heard that steak and foie gras were so delicious that they made people ecstasy, so she thought she could have a full meal, but now she was disappointed.
I went to a seafood restaurant instead, but the food was so delicious, "It was all stinky."
"It's probably water tainted with acid rain that's been introduced. Let's look for any seasonings and cooking utensils that are still usable. Those would be good too."
It took ten minutes to search the place and then move on to the next place.
It was a buffet restaurant. The general didn't need to remind him. Looking through the glass wall, he could see densely packed corpses wandering around. "Why are there so many? Were they imprisoned?"
"Maybe they didn't cook at home, so they decided to eat out. They didn't expect to encounter a rotting corpse, so they took shelter inside together. In the end, they were caught in the trap. Next place."
I went to more than ten restaurants that looked larger, and gained a lot. I also chopped up a lot of rotten corpses and saw some living people. Everyone went their own way and ignored each other. Those who dared to come out at night were all brave. They didn't want to cause trouble or be a burden. They just did their best.
"Sister, I think it's really quiet at night. If it's during the day, there won't be so many people coming. I know there's a big market up ahead. Do you want to go?"
"Is it far? If it's far, you can ride an electric bike. Driving a car makes too much noise."
"It's not too far. It only takes ten minutes to run there."
"Then run over there."
There are many residential communities around large markets, so it is conceivable that the situation in the market will not be very good.
"Hurry and make a quick decision. We can't let them get away with it. Be careful. Don't bother going to the fresh rice and noodle section. It must have been taken by the surrounding residents. Does anyone sell seeds and seedlings there?"
"Yes, many residents like to grow vegetables at home, so there are stalls in the market that specialize in selling these."
"Okay then, let's go straight to the seed area. Are there any gas tanks here?"
"have."
"You lead the way. Go to the seed area first. If you have enough time and it's not dangerous, go to the gas tank store. The general and the prime minister are in front of you. Just run forward and I'll cover your rear."
"I understand, sis."
After the two men and the mastiff had discussed the matter, they took a deep breath and rushed out quickly.
The corpses reacted slowly, and as long as they were not blocking the way, the two men and the mastiff ignored them and ran forward recklessly.
When passing by the butcher shop, there was a crowd of people there. I couldn't take a detour, so I had to rush in.
The general was the first to show his limbs and claws, pounced forward, and directly killed four of them. Miaomiao followed closely behind, and with two swishes, he cut off two heads. Being strong has its advantages. He raised his hand and chopped down the knife without any hesitation.
One man and one mastiff rushed forward, leaving their backs to Lan Shiruo.
Lan Shiruo naturally would not let her companions down, and all those who wanted to pounce on her were dealt with.
Miaomiao was chopping smoothly when a rotting corpse in the nearby shop was squeezed and rushed directly towards her back, its rotten mouth facing her shoulder. She saw it, but she couldn't free her hands. She also trusted Lan Shiruo, narrowed her eyes coldly, and concentrated on dealing with the situation in front of her.
Lan Shiruo leaped over, cut off half of the head, and a sticky unknown liquid splashed all over Miaomiao's face.
Miaomiao wanted to cry, "Sister!!"
Lan Shiruo smiled and said, "I'll pay attention next time."
Okay, keep going.
After more than twenty minutes of hard work, we finally arrived. The land and water sources had been destroyed by acid rain, and no one wanted the seeds and seedlings. However, the shop was intact.
Lan Shiruo took a look and saw a wide variety of items, including some small fruit saplings that could be grown indoors, such as kumquats and dragon fruits. She bought them all with a wave of her hand. A pleasant surprise was the farm tool store next door, which had everything from small and large to fertilizer and soil. Although it wasn't much, it was still a good deal.
"Sister, there's a generator here, can we use it?"
A small household generator would naturally work. "Sure, there aren't many rotting corpses here, so we can look for more."
The planting area is not big, with only four or five shops, plus three or four tool and fertilizer shops. "No sister, there's a live poultry stall in front, and there are a lot of rotting corpses eating meat. It's disgusting. Let's not go there."
"Well, let's go to the gas tank store."
"Okay, this way."
Nowadays, all residential communities use natural gas, and gas cylinders are not used much. Most of them are used by migrant workers who come to the city to work in the surrounding areas and rent in old residential communities. There are more than ten stores, and the storage is considerable.
Lan Shiruo took them all. There were many vendors selling bottled water here, and a lot of them were snatched away. There was nothing left, but Lan Shiruo didn't mind and took them all away.
"Woo woo," danger, go away.
The alert generals' hair suddenly stood on end, and their purple eyes emitted a dangerous light in the dark night.
"What is it?" Lan Shiruo couldn't help but get goosebumps. The thing that could scare the generals and ministers couldn't be a small monster.
"Woo woo," bugs, damn bugs.
