Chapter 177 Unexpected Disaster
After staying up all night, everyone slept until the afternoon the next day.
After the extreme emotional excitement, everyone returned to the boring life they had before learning that the market was open.
Get up early every day to exercise, watch movies and TV series, play games, do handicrafts, grow vegetables, etc.
After resting in the bunker for two days, Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun went to the market to sell meat sauce.
There is no change in the market, there are still so many people. For ordinary people struggling in the end times, the New Year seems like a thing of the previous life. In this life, they just want to have something to eat!
Instead, he looked up at the mountaintop manor not far away. It was decorated with lights and the festive red color almost overflowed the mountain, leaving the people below with only envy.
As usual, before Yu Duoduo opened his stall, many people gathered in front of it, all of them offering gold to exchange for meat sauce.
Some people even complained and asked Yu Duoduo why he didn't come to sell meat sauce on New Year's Day, so that they could eat meat on New Year's Eve!
Yu Duoduo smiled and made an excuse that he had something going on at home.
After all, that day, a group of people were drinking and laughing in the bunker.
Who could have known that Wei Dong, who usually looks serious, and the cold male god Xie Yun, could sing such a high tune that even ten cows couldn't pull it back!
So much so that when they sing a classic love song together, they can create a brand new tune!
In order to get a good start in the business for the new year, Yu Duoduo decided to offer a welfare benefit: buy three packs and get one pack free. When people heard the news, they started to pool their money to make the order and rushed to buy the meat sauce.
The 100 packets of meat sauce they brought were sold out in less than an hour. Yu Duoduo was shaking with laughter as she held the bag of gold jewelry from her boss.
We can close the stall early again today!
Just as the two of them were starting to pack up, four men came from the shelter carrying a woman on a simple rack and walked straight towards Yu Duoduo and their stall.
The woman's mouth was purple and she was foaming at the mouth. She didn't know whether she was dead or alive.
But each of the four men could not hide the anger on his face, as if the prairie fire would burst into flames in the next second.
"What's going on?" Xie Yun looked at the person who came.
"It definitely won't be a good thing." Yu Duoduo replied.
Sure enough, the four men carried the woman's shelf and placed it upright on Yu Duoduo and her friends' stall.
The unknown liquid flowing out of the woman's mouth dripped onto the mat laid by Xie Yun, making him frown.
More and more people gathered around to watch the fun. Although Yu Duoduo's meat sauce had been selling very well over the past few days, it had also made many people jealous.
Many of the vendors around here wanted to see her family make a fool of themselves and make her so proud. When others couldn't even afford to eat, they actually came out to sell meat sauce!
"My wife ate your meat sauce and is now unconscious. You guys should give me an explanation right now, or I will not be done with you today!"
The first person to speak was a skinny man. Long-term malnutrition made him look like a skinned skeleton. He was completely lifeless, so his originally cruel words sounded light and powerless.
Yu Duoduo narrowed her eyes. Even this barefoot doctor who had changed careers could see that the woman was poisoned, but it was hard to say what the poison was.
Just as Xie Yun was about to go forward to check, the skeleton man suddenly pulled out a knife to stop him, "What do you want to do? Your meat sauce has made people sick, and you still want to attack? Stay away from me!"
"You won't even let us see it. How do we know if the problem is caused by the food we sell, or if you guys are deliberately coming here to extort us?" Yu Duoduo said.
"What nonsense are you talking about, you bitch? Even if I let you see it, are you a doctor? Can you understand it?"
The skeleton man with a mouthful of yellow teeth pointed at Yu Duoduo and said, instantly a foul smell wafted out of his mouth, causing Yu Duoduo to silently take two steps back and stop talking.
Then he pointed at the young man with black-framed glasses standing next to him and said, "This is the doctor, an expert who used to work in a big hospital. The experts all said it was poisoning, so how could it be false!"
"Since there is a doctor here, why don't you treat the person quickly instead of arguing pointlessly here? Are you deliberately waiting for people to die?" Xie Yun asked, staring at the doctor he was talking about.
The skeleton man was speechless for a moment. The doctor calmly said, "This lady was too severely poisoned to be saved, so we had to carry her here and let you, the seller, take the responsibility."
Just as Xie Yun was about to retort, the market manager suddenly pushed through the crowd of onlookers and came in.
"What's going on? Why are you all gathered here?" Then he saw Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun, "It's you again. You're really annoying!"
Yu Duoduo looked over and saw that this was the leader who had dealt with the frozen skin woman last time and had accepted three packets of meat sauce from her!
The skeleton man saw the leader coming over and spoke to the stall owner first. He burst into tears and tried to gain the upper hand in public opinion. Then he knelt down in front of the administrator...
The administrator frowned, waved his hand and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't use this nonsense."
The skeleton man pointed at the woman lying on the stretcher and recounted what had just happened, adding fuel to the fire. He also said that the stall owner must pay for what happened to his wife!
The administrator glanced at the silent Yu Duoduo, then looked at the woman and her skeleton husband lying on the ground, and couldn't help asking, "Are you sure you got poisoned by eating their meat sauce?"
"Of course, I ate meat sauce in the morning and nothing else!" The skeleton man looked certain.
"Her meat sauce is sold for 20 grams of gold per bag. Are you sure you can afford it?" The administrator looked at the people in front of him who were so thin that they were just like a stick, and asked doubtfully.
It's not that he looks down on others, he just has tried the meat sauce from this restaurant before and it tastes really good, though a bit expensive.
"Leader, you can't protect these rich people like this. What do you mean we can't afford it? Can't we many families pool our money together to buy it?" The skeleton man was a little exasperated.
"What about the other people who bought it? Did they get poisoned after eating it?" asked the administrator.
"Others, of course, hadn't eaten yet, but then they saw my wife collapse, and no one dared to eat!"
"Okay, since it is poisonous, where is the remaining meat paste? Let's test it. Fortunately, the rescue team is here today." said the administrator.
"This, this is poisonous, how can we keep it? If someone in the shelter who doesn't know the situation eats it by mistake, it will be our fault! I, I'll throw the rest into the toilet!"
Everyone was completely speechless after hearing this. After all the emotional discussion, this group of people simply couldn't prove that they had eaten the meat sauce from this restaurant.
But this woman was indeed poisoned. Looking at her, she looked like she was about to die!
