Natural Disasters: I Hoard Billions of Supplies to Survive the Apocalypse

Natural disasters descended abruptly, and the world underwent massive changes. First came extreme heat, then extreme cold, followed by earthquakes, heavy fog, eternal night, and acid rain, all arri...

Chapter 178 Then Pay the Protection Fee

More than ten minutes later, they appeared in a shop.

This is a shop of about 10 to 20 square meters, just this one room.

It's probably a product from before the end of the world, and the decoration is quite good.

After looking around, Su Nian nodded with satisfaction, "How about the rent?"

"Thirty contribution points a month." Fangtou said hurriedly.

It’s not expensive.

Since he was satisfied and had contribution points in hand, Su Nian rented it for a month without any hesitation.

Su Nian had some considerations for deciding to rent for a month first.

Who knows if she will still want to open this store in a month? She can rent it for a month first. If she wants to continue running it, she can renew the lease.

After signing the rental contract, Su Nian and Jing Mo went to a furniture store under the introduction of the house owner and bought four sets of tables, chairs and benches.

These tables, chairs and benches all have some bumps and traces of repairs on them.

Some of them look the same color at first glance and seem to be a set, but if you look closely you will find that the patterns are actually different.

Su Nian felt that these things should have been picked up from the ruins after the earthquake.

There are many people like them who pick up things from the ruins and sell them.

It has flaws, but at least it's not expensive.

Four sets of tables, chairs and benches, plus a long table that can be used as an operating table, only cost a total of twenty contribution points.

The dishes, chopsticks and kitchen utensils together only cost ten contribution points.

While buying these things, Su Nian and Jing Mo also heard some news.

For example, they know that there is a profession called scavenger.

Scavengers go to the ruins to collect scraps, bring the items they pick up back to the base, and then sell them to various shops according to different categories.

The money these people earn is hard-earned.

The areas close to the base have been almost searched.

They can only go to farther places to scavenge.

There will be some friction and conflict between scavenger teams and individual scavengers.

Some scavengers never returned after leaving the base.

I don’t know whether he went to live somewhere else or met with some accident.

Apart from their families, not many people cared about their disappearance.

Under the current circumstances, it is even more impossible to spend manpower and resources to find them.

After understanding this, Su Nian felt somewhat complicated.

Any base that looks good will have an unknown side.

However, compared with the second base, the third base is already very good.

Su Nian and Jing Mo acted quickly. In just two days, their restaurant was open.

No firecrackers, no flyers, no advertisements, no publicity.

When the shop opened, Wang Dacheng and Feng Xiuli came over to help a little, and then left in a hurry.

The sowing work has not been completed yet, and the two of them are now almost using one person as two.

It's not easy to take time out of your busy schedule to come here.

After the two of them left, Su Nian turned on the rice cooker and put the rice in to steam.

This rice was bought at the grain store on the base.

The rice was a bit broken and not crystal clear enough, not to mention the rice aroma, which was basically non-existent.

But even with this kind of rice, there are still many people who cannot afford it and can only look on.

Due to limited conditions, Su Nian and Jing Mo only posted a menu on the wall with only three dishes on it.

A dish of potato stewed with salted fish, a dish of braised clams, and a dish of seafood soup.

The potatoes were bought at the supermarket at the base, and the salted fish, clams, etc. were all bought from Feng Xiuli.

Feng Xiuli and her friends still had a lot of seafood, and they certainly couldn't eat it every day, so they originally planned to sell some of it and then buy food.

Since Su Nian and Jing Mo want to buy it, just sell it to them.

In addition to these, they also spent twenty contribution points to rent a card swipe machine.

The monthly rental for the card swipe machine is 20 contribution points, but an additional deposit of 100 contribution points is required.

If there is any damage, you will not get your deposit back.

Before a single deal was done, most of the contribution points on Su Nian's card had been spent.

But Su Nian was not worried at all.

Even if they really can't be sold, she and Jing Mo can eat these things slowly, and nothing will be wasted.

When the rice was almost cooked, it was noon.

Jing Mo turned on the induction cooker, poured oil into the pot after it was heated, stir-fried the garlic first, and then added the bean paste.

The taste of the bean paste was so overbearing that even Su Nian couldn't help swallowing when she smelled it.

The operating table is placed right at the entrance, and the fragrance spreads and floats directly out of the door.

There is no need for any publicity at all, this rich fragrance is the best publicity.

Sure enough, after a while, someone walked towards this side and finally stopped at the door.

"Huh? When did a restaurant open here? This dish is so delicious! How is it sold?"

Su Nian pointed to the menu on the wall.

Potatoes stewed with salted fish costs three contribution points per serving.

Braised clams cost two contribution points per serving.

One bowl of seafood soup costs one contribution point.

As for rice, it is also a contribution point for a bowl.

This price was decided by Su Nian and Jing Mo after visiting several restaurants. It was neither high nor low.

As long as they sell at this price, they can still make a lot of money.

Those who still go to restaurants after the end of the world all have some skills and are not short of contribution points.

After seeing the prices on the wall, someone immediately waved his hand and said, "Give me a bowl of rice, a portion of potato stewed with salted fish, and a bowl of seafood soup."

He only spends five contribution points on one meal. He is a rich man!

Su Nian agreed and immediately opened the rice cooker to get some rice and a bowl of seafood soup.

As for the potatoes stewed with salted fish, it is still in the pot, so you have to wait a while.

Su Nian and Jing Mo didn't prepare much, only ten servings of each.

If you can sell them all, you can earn 60 contribution points that day.

After deducting costs, the net profit is thirty contribution points.

I can’t say I’m rich, but with this income, at least I won’t have to worry about food and drink.

When the first person comes to eat, the second person will come to eat.

On the first day of opening, all the meals prepared were sold out.

Looking at the extra sixty contribution points in the card, Su Nian was quite happy.

Before the end of the world, she had no talent for business and could only sell her huge company.

I didn’t expect that when the end of the world came, I would start a small business and see initial success.

Seeing Su Nian so happy, Jing Mo also laughed, "So happy?"

Just as Su Nian was about to speak, he saw a few more people at the door.

Seeing the person coming, Su Nian didn't think much and just said, "Today's food is sold out! Come back tomorrow!"

The leading man laughed when he heard this, "Sold out? Looks like business is good! In that case, pay the protection fee!"

PS:

I feel much better today than yesterday, except that my stomach still aches.

Although the weather is hot, don’t be greedy and eat too cold food!
