236 ? The tenth store

236 The Tenth Store

◎ "They can't be counted as living people, at most they can be counted as 0.5 people."◎

Aunt Zhu and Gao Shimeng were very surprised, thinking that Lu Yao wanted to take them to Gaosheng City.

Li Zui thought it was reliable as soon as he heard it, and after a return trip and seeing the performance of the errand team, he no longer doubted their business level.

Li Zui immediately chimed in: "I think it's reliable! Aunt Zhu, they will definitely find ways to cause trouble. Otherwise, you can just follow Lu Yao

. Although Gaosheng City doesn't have a safe base, there are many retail investors, no worse than Green Ant City." Lu Yao raised his hand to interrupt Li Zui and pointed to the store behind him: "You misunderstood. I plan to build a new errand shop here and want to hire Aunt Zhu and Gao Shimeng as clerks."

Li Zui suddenly raised his voice: "New site? Why?"

The other members of the team were also stunned by the news. They whispered to each other, excited and at a loss.

Originally, if Gao Shimeng and Huang Xuan hadn't happened, Li Zui did want to ask Aunt Zhu to talk to Lu Yao about cooperation.

But he thought about it carefully later. The network of the errand shop can only radiate Gaosheng City. To completely replicate one in Green Ant City, it probably depends on the ability of the shop owner.

And there is only one shop owner. Their wish to have an errand shop in Green Ant City may be difficult to realize.

As a result, Li Zui gave up the idea of ​​cooperation. The shop owner took the initiative to propose to set up a station in Green Ant City.

Lu Yao is more single: "There is no special reason, I just suddenly want to open a branch station to make more money."

A team member asked: "Why not build a station in the base?"

The base has many people and the news spreads quickly.

If the errand shop appears, it will definitely attract many people to place orders and take the initiative to go out to search for supplies accompanied by errand runners. It can be said that it is a win-win situation for the base, the residents of the base and the errand shop.

Lu Yao answered even more bluntly than before: "I saw this shop when I passed by, and I thought it suited my taste, so I chose it. The shop has been cleaned up, and we are just waiting to build the system and recruit people. Please help promote it, and we will give you discounts when it officially opens."

The members of Li Zui's team quickly accepted the news and no longer bothered about the details. They imagined that after the errand runners arrived, Green Ant City would develop like Gaosheng City, and privately began to discuss finding opportunities to save more gold recently.

Lu Yao looked at Aunt Zhu and Gao Shimeng again: "What do you think?"

Aunt Zhu and Gao Shimeng had both learned about the errand shop and were not completely ignorant of the working model in the shop.

It is true that Lu Yao's reaching out to them at such a difficult time was a great favor, but they were worried that they could not do the job of errand runners.

According to the description of Li Zui and others, the errand runners in the errand shop, including the store manager and children, are all monster-level existences. They have no idea where they came from, but they are ridiculously strong.

The most important thing is that the position of the errand shop is very special. It is strong but not bullying the weak. It loves money but pursues a legitimate way of making money, and it is not completely servile to customers.

Lu Yao smiled when he heard Aunt Zhu's concern: "You two must be here to look after the store and work as clerks. How can I ask you to be errand runners?"

Aunt Zhu almost burst into tears when she heard this.

She was not an ambitious person, but she was not without vision. She could not see the situation clearly. If the shop owner had not taken the initiative to give them a ride, what awaited them would only be a more miserable and humiliating future.

The olive branch had been extended to her palm, and it would be a bit ungrateful to refuse it. Aunt Zhu stepped forward and held

Lu Yao's hand tightly: "We mother and mother will rely on you as a big mountain." Lu Yao covered Aunt Zhu's hand: "You can call me Lu Yao or the shop owner, don't be so polite."

Li Zui and others were also happy for Aunt Zhu and Gao Shimeng, helping them unload the luggage in the car, and returned to the Dawn Base with the news that "the errand shop will build a site in Green Ant City".

Li Zui was cautious and returned the van to the base. He did not reveal the news about the errand shop and Aunt Zhu and her daughter. He only privately recruited a few trusted team members and prepared to find ways to save more gold in the next few days.

After what happened to Aunt Zhu, Li Zui felt sympathetic. Seeing that Lu Yao was unwilling to enter the base to build a site, the person who never wanted to think too much suddenly smelled something unusual.

Li Zui only secretly discussed with Chu Li to find an opportunity to hide some gold outside so that not all of it could be brought back to the base.

Aunt Zhu and Gao Shimeng quickly signed an employment contract and a confidentiality agreement with Lu Yao and became the new employees of the errand shop site to be built.

Lu Yao was leaving to do some work, so he simply packed up the vacant shop next to the temporary station, reinforced it with formations and talismans, replaced the front and back doors with new anti-theft doors, and left Xiong Anan and Kang Kang to guard them.

Gao Shimeng heard that Lu Yao and his party were going to deal with the corpses of zombies they encountered on the road, so he placed an order with Lu Yao as a customer.

There was a very small food processing factory along the road that Lu Yao and the other two were going to. This factory was one of the few factories around Green Ant City, and it mainly produced cakes and desserts that were sold as specialties in the scenic area.

Before Gao Shimeng's brother got into trouble, he led a team to that food factory to search for some food materials.

In addition to the two search teams, there were also Huang Xuan and several of his friends. When the search team returned, only half of the people were left. Huang Xuan's people were fine, but the ones who died were all the team members who had more say in the base and a particularly capable captain. In addition, Gao Shimeng's brother was missing.

According to the search team that returned, her brother died in the zombie tide, along with the other team members who died.

Gao Shimeng originally believed this, but what happened today made her doubt that her brother might not have died accidentally.

Gao Shimeng commissioned Lu Yao's team to go to the food factory to investigate and find out the real cause of her brother's death.

However, it was a few days after the incident, and it might be difficult to find useful clues. Gao Shimeng was worried that Lu Yao would refuse, so she took out a 50-gram plain gold bracelet as a reward.

No matter what the result was, she wanted to get the real news.

Gao Shimeng didn't know if the owner could really restore the situation at that time and find out the truth she wanted to know.

Lu Yao also accepted the reward without guilt, saying that he would definitely live up to her expectations.

Harold received the news from Lu Yao and had arrived in Green Ant City.

His sudden appearance startled Aunt Zhu and Gao Shimeng. Lu Yao introduced calmly, "This is one of the most experienced runners in our store. Don't be fooled by his young age, he is very reliable."

Harold was secretly pleased, but his face showed a slightly impatient look, "What do you want me to do?"

Lu Yao briefly explained the latest plan, and Harold was very surprised, "Isn't Gaosheng City good? There are so many orders these days that you can't handle them all. Do you want to build a new site so soon?"

Lu Yao said: "After my trip to Green Ant City, I found that the long-distance transportation business has great potential for development. Building a site will help to continue to expand the customer base. It is a big challenge to go from short-distance errands to long-distance logistics transportation..."

One of the high-frequency words that the proud dragons hate to hear the most: challenge.

Harold interrupted Lu Yao before he could finish: "Challenge? I like challenging things the most. It's just that running errands is really boring, and running errands over long distances seems a little challenging. We can use magic... to shorten the transportation time and improve efficiency. But we have to examine the pricing carefully this time, the previous pricing for errands in our store was a bit too low."

Running errands was not difficult for them, but the price per order was too low, and they often encountered strange customers. Harold had wanted to give Lu Yao some advice for a long time.

Lu Yao patted Harold's shoulder with satisfaction: "You are worthy of being my eldest son, you have grown up! An'an and Kang Kang should learn more from Harold."

Xiong An'an and Kang Kang both liked Harold very much, and were indeed impressed by his sophisticated business skills. They did not expect such a detailed plan for opening a store.

Harold was a little embarrassed by the praise of the store owner and the young clerk.

Lu Mingxiao watched this scene in silence, suppressing the slight anxiety in his heart.

The matter of Green Ant City came to an end for the time being. Lu Yao told Xiong An'an and Kang Kang to lock the doors and windows and not to open the door to strangers, and then took Harold and Lu Mingxiao to go on a mission.

Because he had accepted Gao Shimeng's order, and it was a big order with a generous reward, Lu Yao modified the order of the tasks, first going to the food factory mentioned by Gao Shimeng to investigate the situation, and then burying the body.

Lu Yao originally wanted to divide into two teams to handle the two tasks, but Harold and Lu Mingxiao were reluctant to go on the mission alone. Lu Yao was unwilling to go alone, and neither of them was willing to form a team, so in the end the three of them acted together.

Anyway, with Harold and Lu Mingxiao, the food factory exploration mission will probably be completed in less than 20 minutes.

The location of the food factory is in the direction of Green Ant City to Gaosheng City, but the location is not particularly remote, and it is only about 500 meters away from the long-distance bus station that Green Ant City used to be.

There used to be a wholesale market here, which facilitated the transportation of goods and the purchase of raw materials.

Lu Yao was not sure about the exact location, but with the Dream Fulfilling System, everything was not a problem.

The day before yesterday, when they went out on a mission, they had all scanned the routes along the way and stored them in the database.

Ting Gao Shimeng mentioned several iconic place names, and it had already screened out the target location.

It happened that less than a kilometer away from the target location, there was a temporary marker placed by Lu Yao.

The principle was the same as going to Tomorrow City through the ghost bracelet. Lu Yao sensed the wish left on the marker, guided Harold to open the door, and took them to the designated location.

The three of them teleported smoothly from the Green Ant City to the suburbs. After walking along the deserted streets for a few minutes, they found the food factory that Gao Shimeng mentioned without much effort.

The small building with red bricks and gray tiles stood in the middle of a group of low gray sheds. The floor was not high, and a conspicuous sign hung above the gate - Green Food Factory.

Harold stepped forward and knocked on the iron railing at the gate. The iron chain as thick as a finger was placed on the fence and fell to the ground with a snap. The lock was no longer useful.

Lu Yao asked, "Are there many people in there?"

Harold raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's a bit strange."

Lu Yao: "Hmm?"

Lu Mingxiao: "There are quite a lot of zombies, and there is one survivor."

Lu Yao: "Could it be a survivor of the Dawn Base search team?" It

's unlikely. If an ordinary person is trapped in a place like a zombie nest, even if he is lucky enough not to be killed by the zombies, he can't survive alone for so long. Moreover,

Huang Xuan had a deliberate plan at the time. He had to watch Gao Shimeng's brother and his confidants die in the zombie tide before he stopped. It's unlikely that there would be any fish that slipped through the net.

The Dream Fulfilling System corrected him: "It can't be counted as a living person, at most it can be counted as 0.5 people."

Lu Yao: "Ah? What do you mean?"

Dream Fulfilling System: "But he is really cruel." Lu

Yao hates it most when others talk halfway, but there is no time to ask everything, Harold has already opened the door of the food factory.
