Time passed minute by minute. Aunt Ma in Room 402 put down the rubber hammer she was using to break the floor tiles and rubbed her sore hands.
"It's been an hour. Why hasn't anyone downstairs come up to find us?"
"In the past, those residents couldn't stand the noise after more than ten minutes, so they came up to negotiate and deliver food."
Aunt Ma used this unethical method to cheat several groups of residents of Room 302.
There was a girl named Kong living on the third floor, who often followed Aunt Ma downstairs to eat and drink for free, resulting in no one wanting to live on the third floor.
Those who lived there could not stay for more than two days before they all moved out.
"I guess that damn girl didn't come to sleep. Come on, go to my house and harass 303 downstairs."
Sister Kong opened the door and went out, and suddenly saw Jiang Fei standing by the door waiting.
The next second, Jiang Fei covered his mouth and pushed him into the house, then knocked him out with a punch.
Aunt Ma was so frightened that she subconsciously wanted to scream.
Bang--!
A brick hit Aunt Ma on the forehead and she fell to the ground, unconscious on the spot.
After confiscating the rubber hammer used by the two people to make noise, Jiang Fei closed the door of Room 402 and went to rest.
It's finally quiet.
After a good sleep, Jiang Fei woke up refreshed the next day. After collecting water for an hour in the morning and storing it in the water tank in the supermarket warehouse, he took a portion of pork dumplings and milk for breakfast.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Fei put on his down jacket and went out.
I have the business license to open a small supermarket, but I still lack a house.
Most of the empty shops in the safety station are in the hands of their original owners, and the government is only responsible for repairing them.
Only unattended and empty shops belong to the government and are not rented or sold to others.
If she wanted to buy a shop, she had to go to the market to find the owner.
After walking around for a while, Jiang Fei found three homeowners who were selling their houses. He looked at them one by one and only chose a large flat shop.
It used to be a convenience store, but is now abandoned.
The floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides were broken by the flood. The owner sealed them with bricks and cement and replaced them with two small windows for ventilation and lighting.
It is divided into a sales area, a lounge, a toilet, and a small warehouse.
The store is located on West Street in the Safety Office.
There are many residential areas on West Street and a large flow of people. Most official and private shops are located here.
"How much?"
The homeowner stroked the few remaining strands of hair on his head and made a loud request: "30 bags of instant noodles, 30 kilograms of coal, 30 liters of kerosene, and one piece of jewelry, no silver or gold."
Jiang Fei raised his eyebrows: "Are you taking advantage of me?"
She had already inquired about the prices at the market, which were generally one kilogram of coal and three liters of kerosene.
There is no shortage of water in the safe place, but coal and kerosene are in short supply.
These two things are indispensable for lighting kerosene lamps, heating, boiling water and cooking.
The shop is not worth anything at all.
The supplies of ordinary survivors are not enough for their own use, so how can they have extra to open a store?
Not to mention that someone would buy it to live in.
Isn’t the official free bunk bed nice?
"Two kilograms of coal and two liters of kerosene."
Jiang Fei cut the price directly, and the homeowner refused to accept it.
"I have such a big store and you only give me a few things, are you kidding me?"
"At least 20 kilograms of coal and 10 liters of kerosene."
When the homeowner was still trying to cheat Jiang Fei of his supplies, a familiar voice came from outside.
"This shop is great, I want to buy something too... Damn it! Boss!"
Wang Quezi ran in excitedly, followed by A Meng.
"That's great, big boss! My father never found you at the security station. I thought you were dead and cried for several times!"
"Now I don't have to stack gold ingots for you to burn!"
Jiang Fei: "...If you don't know how to speak, you can shut up."
"You want to buy this?"
"No, no, no." Wang Quezi explained:
"I'm friends with Old Joe, and I heard there was a fool desperate to buy a house, so he came to act and help him raise the price."
"Hey, boss, you are not a fool, I am..."
Wang Quezi quickly changed the subject: "Old Qiao, this is Miss Jiang that I always mentioned to you. I paid for the materials for her house purchase. Don't slander me."
Old Qiao was helpless: "If you had told me you knew each other earlier, I wouldn't have to rack my brains to bargain."
"One kilogram of coal, one liter of kerosene, and the house will be sold to you. We will go to the exchange to handle it now."
Jiang Fei and Lao Qiao went to the stock exchange.
After getting the transaction certificate, A Meng also took the corresponding supplies.
Old Qiao gave the key to Jiang Fei and left with the supplies.
He still has two stores and he has to continue selling there.
When Jiang Fei found out that Oba had followed Ah Meng here, he mentioned the matter of the small base in Paradise on Earth.
"That girl should be your sister. She came to the safe house with us. You can go look for her."
Tears of excitement welled up in Oba's eyes.
Without even bothering to say thank you, he hurried to take his younger brother to find his sister.
Wang Quezi and Jiang Fei walked into the store and said with emotion: "This world is really small. I didn't expect you to meet Scar's sister."
"Boss, what are you going to do when you buy the store?"
"If you don't have a place to live, I can arrange it for you. I found a few old acquaintances at the security station and can get you a resettlement house with a back door. It's warmer than here."
"I want to open a small supermarket." Jiang Fei told Wang Quezi her plan.
"We mainly sell food and daily necessities, and occasionally some home-grown vegetables and scarce supplies. We only accept gold."
Coal, gasoline, diesel and other resources are non-renewable resources, so she is reluctant to sell them.
The sources of meat and seafood are difficult to explain and cannot be disclosed for the time being.
When the weather gets warmer, the ice on the rivers melts, and the shrimps begin to reproduce, there will be a reason to sell shrimps.
Wang Quezi admired him very much.
As expected of a big shot, he never forgets his hobbies wherever he goes!
“The idea of opening a small supermarket to collect gold is indeed a good one.”
"The gold jewelry that ordinary survivors have is not exquisitely made. The rich think it is vulgar and ugly, so they will not buy it. The security office uses points as currency, which causes everyone's gold to be left at home and gather dust. Now they can exchange it for supplies. Who knows how happy they are."
Wang Quezi couldn't help but complain: "I used to take jewelry to rich people to exchange for gold bars, thinking that they would be buried with you, but in the end all they sent was food and other supplies."
"After asking around, I found out that the gold bars they had were their treasure chests, kept for future use, and they would never trade with ordinary people."
"The rich don't trade at exchanges. I don't have any evidence. I can't beat them. I can only swallow this loss."
Jiang Fei automatically ignored the words "funerary objects" and was a little disappointed.
She also wanted to exchange the jewelry for gold after opening the store, but she's afraid that's not possible.
"By the way, boss, you sell daily necessities, do you have that kind of thing?" Wang Quezi hinted with a wink.
Seeing that Jiang Fei didn't understand, Wang Quezi said tactfully, "To prevent excessive births."
Jiang Fei suddenly realized: "I have it, I can give you a few boxes if you want."
She took a lot of it from the Zhenhu Gang.
As he spoke, Jiang Fei used the cover of his coat pocket to give Wang Quezi three boxes.
Wang Quezi was dumbfounded: "You actually have so many?! And they are brand new!"
"Boss, how many do you have? I'll buy them! Ten gold bars in a box! No credit, I promise!"
"To tell you the truth, I'm a middleman now, and I'm in great need of birth control products. Ordinary people need them, and so do the rich. It's no exaggeration to say that they're more popular than kerosene and coal."
People have desires, and given such a bad environment, no one wants to have a child.
Jiang Fei looked at the new gate for collecting gold: "I still have a lot, I'll go look for it today, you help me sell it, the materials belong to you, and the gold belongs to me."
"Okay!" Wang Cuzi agreed readily, saving him the trouble of looking for gold!
"Do you need sex toys?"
Jiang Fei hesitated for a moment: "It was used by someone else. I found it outside before."
She hasn't thrown away the supplies in the supermarket warehouse yet.
Wang Cuzi's eyes turned strange when he looked at Jiang Fei.
The boss is looking for sex toys...others have used them...and keeps them...
There was too much information, so he had to take it slow.
