Chapter 61 Big Purchase



Due to time constraints, Chen Yan didn't stay in the company for long.

After completing the entire process and confirming that the bonus had arrived, Chen Yan said goodbye and quickly left the company.

Instead of going to the nearest vegetable market immediately, Chen Yan first ran to a 24-hour convenience store near the company. After buying an ice cream in the store, he removed the packaging bag outside the ice cream and then threw the ice cream into his portable warehouse.

Using this method to simply test the storage characteristics of the portable warehouse is undoubtedly very time-saving and labor-saving.

Because he doesn't need to know anything too complicated, he just needs to know whether the things placed in his portable warehouse are equivalent to the solidification of time and space.

If you want to store fresh meat, vegetables, fruits, eggs and other things in a portable warehouse, you must ensure that there is no concept of time in the portable warehouse.

Without the concept of time, there are no basic physical properties. Anything stored in it will not change in the slightest no matter how long it is stored. This is of great significance for "storage".

Chen Yan had previously conducted special tests in the wasteland world and found that it was impossible to put living things into the portable warehouse.

No matter whether it is a lower arthropod or a higher mammal, as long as it is alive, it cannot be put in.

Of course, the dead ones can.

A dead animal is no longer an animal, but a lump of meat, or a mass of protein that can be used to supplement nutrition...

I didn't deliberately speed up my pace, but just walked all the way to the nearest vegetable market at a normal pace.

It took at least ten minutes. If the time and space in the portable warehouse were not solidified, then ten minutes would be enough for the ice cream to melt.

After taking out the popsicle from his portable storage and taking a bite, Chen Yan smiled with satisfaction.

Very good! Bang! It's still the same as it was when I threw it into the warehouse ten minutes ago!

It seems that the existence of portable warehouses should be something similar to subspace.

Chen Yan, who had completely put his mind at ease, walked into the vegetable market excitedly. While walking along the stalls in the market, he began to think about what he should buy.

As he was promoted to a third-level awakener, the volume of his portable warehouse increased again, and the length, width and height all became four meters, which is a total of sixty-four cubic meters.

Compared to the twenty-seven cubes when he was a second-level awakener, the amount of things that can be put in has obviously increased a lot.

Many people may not have any idea about the volume of sixty-four cubic meters. Generally speaking, the volume of the master bedroom in an ordinary two-bedroom house is between thirty and thirty-five cubic meters.

In other words, the size of Chen Yan’s current portable warehouse is roughly equivalent to the two master bedrooms of an ordinary two-bedroom house!

If this kind of space is simply used to store food and water, it can store a lot...

Chen Yan first went to the seasoning area, found the stall that looked the largest, and bought a large amount of rice, noodles, oil, salt, and sugar at one time.

Since they are all in bulk, the price is quite cheap.

I bought one ton of rice and flour each, and one hundred kilograms of salt and sugar each.

As for cooking oil, the peanut oil sold at this stall was priced at 12 yuan per catty, almost four times that of soybean oil. Chen Yan was very happy and chose soybean oil at 3.5 yuan per catty without hesitation, and directly ordered 1,000 catties.

Adding all these up, the total cost was almost 12,000 yuan, and there was still a little over 20,000 yuan left in the card, which should be enough to buy meat, vegetables, eggs and fruit.

After silently calculating in his mind, since he bought too much at this stall, Chen Yan bargained with the stall owner, and the stall owner agreed to deliver the goods to his door.

Although the profit from selling bulk goods of daily necessities such as rice, flour, oil and salt is very low, stall owners like Chen Yan can still make a lot of money from buying more than two tons at one time.

In addition, the delivery address provided by Chen Yan was very close, and it would not take much time to drive a small truck there, so the stall owner agreed quite readily.

After solving the problem of staple food and condiments, Chen Yan continued to stroll around the vegetable market.

The customer base of this vegetable market is mainly composed of residents in nearby residential areas. Due to the purchasing habits of the residents, most of the stalls are actually small in scale, and there are not many vendors who actually do wholesale business.

If the vendor’s stall is too small, it cannot meet Chen Yan’s purchasing needs.

If you have to go to several stalls to buy one thing, it would be too troublesome for Chen Yan.

Just when Chen Yan was worried about not being able to find a suitable stall, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

Liu Xiaolu?

Why is my landlord here? And he even rented a stall?

Chen Yan came closer with a curious look on his face.

At this time, Liu Xiaolu was sitting in front of her stall, staring at the vegetables on the stall with lifeless eyes and looking worried.

I have rented this stall for three days, but very few vegetables have actually been sold.

Except for some people who come at night to buy vegetables that are no longer fresh because they have been left out all day and can only be sold at a loss, there are almost no people willing to take care of her business during the day.

She found that she had been overthinking it. People who came to the market to buy vegetables and meat obviously preferred to buy things from familiar stalls.

Especially at a time when food safety issues are becoming increasingly serious, familiar stalls can naturally provide people with a rare sense of trust.

Although this sense of trust is often used to take advantage of the customers, most people are still willing to pay for it for psychological comfort.

In short, she initially just wanted to have a stable livelihood, but now it seems that she was a bit naive.

She is not afraid of hardship and suffering, but if she works hard every day and ends up not only not making any money but also having to spend money on it, then anyone would not be able to stand it.

Just when Liu Xiaolu couldn't help but sigh, the light in front of her eyes suddenly dimmed.

Liu Xiaolu was stunned for a moment, then she was delighted, thinking that it was a customer who came to buy vegetables, so she immediately stood up from her chair.

However, after seeing clearly who appeared in front of her stall, Liu Xiaolu's face froze slightly, and she said awkwardly, "It's Xiao Chen, coming to the market to buy vegetables?"

Chen Yan nodded and asked in confusion, "Sister Liu, why are you selling vegetables here? Is it just a temporary thing? Or did you rent the stall and plan to do it permanently?"

Liu Xiaolu took a deep breath, trying to suppress the strange emotions in her heart. She smiled bitterly and said, "I originally planned to do this for a long time, but after a few days, I found that it was far from what I imagined. So I'll see... If I can't make it work within a month, I'll probably quit."
