The straightforward lifeguard took the bag with a beaming smile.
"Okay, you're really good to our boss. You even thought of him not having any underwear."
Hua Mi: "......"
She was silent for a moment, then slapped her thigh and lamented:
"If Boss Gong didn't have any underwear, he should have said so earlier. I would have sent him dozens more."
When Chi Chuan reappeared in the stall area, Hua Mi grabbed him by the back of his collar.
He turned around and was about to greet Hua Mi when he heard Hua Mi happily say,
"Do you still have any men's underwear? This business is so good! I bought some men's underwear from you yesterday, and I've sold them all today."
Chi Chuan looked at Hua Mi in surprise. How come he couldn't sell a single one?
He then glanced at Hua Mi's stall and exclaimed dramatically:
"Wow, wow, you're amazing! Where did you get so much bottled water? What brand is it...?"
He broke free from Hua Mi's grip on the back of his collar, walked to Hua Mi's stall, and looked at the mineral water bottle. It was completely transparent and had no markings.
High-end mineral water often doesn't need any identification labels!
Amazed by Hua Mi's abilities, Chi Chuan walked around the RV parked on the musical fountain again, clicking his tongue in admiration.
"This car is great, I'll go and buy one too."
"Stop talking nonsense. Do you still have any men's underwear? Let me tell you, this is a very profitable product. I sold out of men's underwear in just a few hours. What does that mean? It means there is a huge market demand for men's underwear."
Hua Mi rattled off a string of words.
Ikegawa shook his head repeatedly, pointing to the truck he had driven over.
“My friend’s warehouse is out of men’s underwear, but another friend of mine wants to collect some water. There was a serious earthquake in the next city, and half of the city collapsed.”
So those of them who were in the business of buying and selling goods thought of collecting some goods and taking them to the neighboring city to sell.
If Hanami has extra water, Chichuan can collect some.
"That's the situation right now. All eyes are on Xiangcheng, so supplies from all sectors are being sent there. Who would have thought that the neighboring city would also be hit by an earthquake? They must be short of supplies there, and water is also essential."
Chi Chuan looked at Hua Mi, who had one hand on the shelf and the other on her hip, her expression unreadable.
So Ikegawa thought for a moment and said very sincerely:
"Don't think I'm morally corrupt for saying all this. Everyone needs to eat, and we make a living by buying and selling. Of course, if a neighboring city is hit by a disaster, I will donate money and supplies, and I will also contribute my love and care. I have elderly parents and young children to support, and all I can do is not sell bottled water at exorbitant prices..."
"Alright, stop explaining."
Hua Mi interrupted Chi Chuan with a wave of her hand, a smile playing on her lips.
"While money is still money, it doesn't matter if you earn more."
Anyway, it won't be long before this money becomes a pile of worthless paper, or just a string of numbers lying in your phone.
When order exists, money can buy what you want; once order ceases to exist, the only way to get what you want is by stealing or robbing.
The general trend is that we should not use morality to hold anyone hostage.
Ikegawa breathed a heavy sigh of relief upon receiving the understanding. He was afraid of encountering hypocritical people who would accuse him of profiting from the disaster.
Fortunately, Hua Mi is not that kind of person.
She asked Chi Chuan very generously, "How much bottled water do you want to buy in bulk?"
"Hmm...do you have 100,000 bottles?"
Ikegawa conservatively gave a number.
"Yes, I'll have someone send it over."
As she spoke, Hua Mi took out her phone and called A Fu, asking him to drive the empty truck to the ruins.
He also told Ikegawa to go to the ruins to fetch water in the afternoon.
Afu's truck certainly couldn't hold 100,000 bottles of mineral water. Calling Afu's big truck over was just a smokescreen, proving that she still had transportation channels to bring water into Xiangcheng from other places.
While strolling through the ruins this morning, Hua Mi discovered that although her neighborhood had collapsed, half of the underground parking garage was still intact.
The exit of the underground parking garage is right next to Hua Mi's supermarket.
She used the underground garage as a temporary warehouse, storing all 100,000 bottles of mineral water that Chi Chuan wanted there, so that Chi Chuan and his friends could move them themselves.
After explaining everything, Hua Mi pasted two QR codes for receiving payments on the wall of her used RV, along with a piece of paper that read,
[The vendor is unavailable; bottled water is available for self-service, 5 yuan per bottle]
She didn't bother tidying up the things left outside; she went straight into the RV and instantly returned to the supermarket.
The stall owner wasn't there, and Ikegawa had left too, so people gathered around.
Someone pointed to the shelves full of bottled water.
"Is this stall owner an idiot? He left so much water here and then disappeared."
Don't be too optimistic about people's feelings, after all, this is like a disco, vibrating and shaking endlessly.
Not everyone is a bad person, but certainly not everyone is a good person either.
Someone stepped forward, tentatively took two bottles of mineral water, turned around and left without scanning the QR code.
However, they hadn't gone far when they were stopped by the garrison not far away.
The garrison commander was furious and slapped the man who had taken water without paying, making him turn away.
"Are you blind, or do you think we are?"
Didn't you notice that among all the stalls in the area, only Sister Hao's stall had the most flamboyant style?
The reason she can be so flamboyant is because she trusts their boss and believes that the guards on duty and patrol will take good care of her stall.
So taking water without paying is practically a challenge to the garrison's reconnaissance capabilities. Don't be fooled by the large number of people here; they're all keeping an eye on Hao Jie's stall out of the corner of their eyes.
The man who had been photographed by the garrison, carrying two bottles of mineral water, obediently paid 10 yuan, slunk away, and muttered curses under his breath.
Seeing this, the remaining people didn't dare to take water without paying. They all obediently scanned the code, took a few bottles of water, and paid the agreed amount.
Hua Mi's stall is doing very well. After all, although disaster relief supplies are being delivered to Xiangcheng every day, resources are limited, but the panic in people's hearts is limitless.
The donated bottled water has arrived, and as Cao Feng said, there are now stalls selling bottled water on the market.
But the bottled water at their stall costs at least 30 yuan a bottle, while Hua Mi only sells it for 5 yuan a bottle.
The price is already considered very affordable.
Who wouldn't be willing to spend 5 yuan to stock up on an extra bottle of water?
Hua Mi, who had already returned to the supermarket, thought that as long as nothing major happened, it was fine. It didn't matter if some people took the water without paying, as long as she didn't catch them. After all, her mineral water came from the fountain under the RV... and the cost was just some diesel fuel.
She never expected so many people to buy water, and that they would pay for every single bottle.
It seems that the garrison troops really take good care of her.
