Lin Zhao's story inspired many people, who wanted to follow her example and gather a group of people to search for other shops.
However, Lin Zhao's group consisted of strong and capable people, and even if others wanted to find other shops, they didn't have enough manpower.
After all, in such a low-temperature environment, the physical exertion required to open up a new path is unimaginable.
If Lin Zhao and the others hadn't stubbornly held on, they probably wouldn't have been able to do it.
In order to get food, many people in the community tried to exchange some food with him.
They brought out all their gold, silver, jewelry, and the most commonly used coins, all in the hopes of getting a bite to eat.
Lin Zhao initially offered a high price, but on the second day of the transaction, he doubled the original price!
He simply said, "The store doesn't have much food, so we don't have to worry about selling it."
Those people had no other choice but to try to trade various things with Lin Zhao.
This resulted in Lin Zhao receiving so much cash that it filled an entire suitcase!
If so much money were to be opened, it would probably make many people envious; there's just too much of it.
It wasn't just cash; there were also other gold and silver jewelry and other valuables.
When exchanging items with Lin Zhao, he directly cut the price by more than half from the original normal price, taking it or leaving it to him.
However, they also obtained some food as a result, but they no longer dared to eat it in large quantities and had to eat it sparingly.
Some people even cursed Lin Zhao in their hearts, and they would make Lin Zhao pay the price after the disaster was over!
Qiao Lianyi and Lin Qin also considered buying some food from Lin Zhao, but they fell silent after learning the prices Lin Zhao sold at.
Such a high price is beyond their means.
Although they have made some money through men, women's expenses are very high, including cosmetics, clothes, bags, etc.
They don't have many valuable things on them.
Most importantly, they couldn't bear to use these things to exchange for a bite to eat.
As for food, they still had one thing to offer, but they had already focused their attention on Qin Bai.
Qin Bai would always video call on time during mealtimes, just to show them how lavish his meals were.
They also knocked on Qin Bai's door, but Qin Bai never opened it, so they had no choice but to go back.
When they had nothing to do, they would send Qin Bai all sorts of voice messages, some even filled with seductive tones.
They were willing to do anything as long as Qin Bai was willing to open the door.
Seeing the two women, Qin Bai felt deeply sorry for his past self.
Qin Bai was wiping the broadsword that Old Zhang had made for him, and the sharpened edges were actually gleaming with a cold light.
He had tested the knife's sharpness; with a single stroke, it cleaved even a chopping board in two without any resistance.
"If this knife were to kill someone, there shouldn't be any pain whatsoever, right?"
Qin Bai murmured.
Just then, he heard a loud voice coming from outside the door.
"Miss, please open the door quickly, I've already brought the fever reducer."
Then, Xia Lulu's voice rang out, though it was rather soft.
"Um, you can just leave the medicine at the door, I'll get it later."
"What the hell? I brought you medicine, and this is how you treat me? Fine, I'm leaving now, and you can forget about getting any fever reducers!"
The man seemed very angry and looked like he was about to leave.
Xia Lulu was horrified. Her child had a fever last night, and she didn't have a backup of the medicine at home. She could only ask for help from others in the group.
Surprisingly, someone actually responded, saying that he had children's fever reducers at home and would bring them to her.
But when Xia Lulu reached the door, she heard the other person's voice and became somewhat frightened.
Things are different now than before; she has also witnessed the confrontation between Lin Zhao and others and the residents of the community.
She's a vulnerable woman with a child. If the man outside the door has ulterior motives, can she resist?
But when she heard that the man was going to take the medicine away, she hurriedly opened the door.
As soon as she opened the door, she knew she was in trouble. Just as she was about to close it, a hand reached right in.
"Hey beautiful, why are you closing the door? Didn't you want fever reducers? The medicine is right here, come and get it."
A huge, burly man, with a wicked smile, slowly opened the door completely, and Xia Lulu couldn't stop him at all.
His gaze kept sweeping over Xia Lulu. Although Xia Lulu was wearing quite a few clothes, the burly man remembered what she looked like: a great beauty!
Xia Lulu was terrified, her voice trembling: "The medicine... I don't need it anymore, you can take it back."
The man laughed heartily: "Why are you being so formal? I'm a guest too, aren't you going to invite me in?"
The man tried to force his way in, and Xia Lulu's small body seemed utterly vulnerable in his presence.
Just as the man was about to enter the house, a look of despair appeared in Xia Lulu's eyes when a voice came from behind the burly man.
"Sister Lu already said it's not necessary. Are you deaf? Can't you hear me?"
Qin Bai's indifferent voice reached their ears.
"Um?"
The burly man turned around. How dare someone meddle in his business?
He turned around and saw Qin Bai holding a large knife, his eyes scanning him up and down, as if he was thinking about where to cut him next.
Even a person holding a fruit knife can make people feel unsafe, let alone Qin Bai holding such a large knife.
The burly man had sharp eyes and even noticed that the knife was sharpened!
Who is this person who sharpens cold weapons? Isn't he afraid of being taken away by the police?
A cold sweat broke out on the burly man's back.
"Um, that's a misunderstanding. I just came to deliver medicine."
The burly man gave an awkward smile and pointed to the fever reducer in his hand.
"Really? But what I just heard didn't seem to be the case."
As Qin Bai spoke, he brandished the large knife in his hand, which made the burly man somewhat terrified.
"You must have misheard. I've given you the fever reducer, beautiful lady. I'll be going now."
The burly man hurriedly stuffed the fever-reducing medicine in his hand into Xia Lulu's hand and prepared to run away.
But Qin Bai's words made him freeze in place, his whole body stiff.
Did I say you could leave?
The burly man turned around stiffly, saw Qin Bai's broadsword pointing at him, and was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Brother, spare me! I only had a wicked thought, I didn't do anything, I swear!"
"Yeah?"
The burly man had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Qin Bai's next words.
"If begging for mercy worked, what's the point of having police?"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a gust of wind swept in.
