Chapter 222 Group Purchase



Ma Zhixuan naturally believed what Qin's mother said, as he didn't have a very good impression of Hua Mi to begin with.

My impression of him is even worse now.

"But there's nothing I can do. My sister-in-law is completely unable to distinguish right from wrong. In this cold weather, she's fawning over Hua Mi like she's currying favor with someone."

Ma Zhixuan was very upset. He had always lived a proud life and had rarely suffered any setbacks.

Qin Zhen's slap hurt him deeply.

Qin's mother looked at Ma Zhixuan with some sadness, and said gently,

“Zhixuan, you are a child that your aunt is very satisfied with. Now, besides you, no one else can help Xiaolan and her brother.”

Her daughter disappeared after going to see Fang Xin; Hua Mi killed Fang Xin; Qin Ziran disappeared; and Hua Mi possessed a large amount of resources.

Is there no intricate connection between these things?

Qin's mother did not believe it.

And the only way for her to find her son and daughter is through Ma Zhixuan.

Otherwise, Qin's mother, being of low status and with little influence, wouldn't have been able to stir up any trouble.

Seeing Ma Zhixuan's hesitant expression, tears welled up in Qin's mother's eyes.

“Zhixuan, you know the injustices our Qin family has suffered. You also can’t stand Xiangcheng being controlled by Gong Yi and Hua Mi, right?”

"A person has to do something in this world."

Seeing Qin's mother's pitiful appearance, Ma Zhixuan finally nodded.

He discussed it with Qin's mother, and the next morning they rushed to the RV supermarket, saying they wanted to find Hua Mi.

They figured that, given Ma Zhixuan and Ma Yongchun's relationship, even if Hua Mi didn't care about Qin's mother, she would at least have to consider the reputation of City C.

The three of them had an open and honest discussion about Qin Ziran's whereabouts and whether or not Qin Xiaolan should send troops to rescue him, as Xiangcheng had to consider its relationship with City C.

As a result, the RV supermarket is doing so well that nowadays, people who queue up all night are there to do wholesale.

Ye Rong had no time to receive Qin's mother and Ma Zhixuan.

Every day, countless people specifically ask to see Hua Mi. Those who are truly on Hua Mi's level simply call her directly.

Why would they come looking for me in person?

In other words, people who can't even afford a universal signal communicator are all poor!

They are not worthy of being personally introduced to Hua Mi.

Ma Zhixuan did have a universal signal communicator, but he didn't have Hua Mi's phone number.

Qin's mother? A poor wretch.

So Ye Rong had neither the time nor the concern, and casually replied to Qin's mother and Ma Zhixuan with a few words, telling them to wait somewhere further away and not to stand in the RV supermarket blocking the way.

Since the factory manager left to rebuild the water plant, there has been a shortage of manpower here.

Yu Mengmeng has gone to court again.

Even Ye Rong's children, Dafu and Xiaofu, have been temporarily pulled in to help manage the wholesale business of the RV supermarket.

The day begins as soon as the RV supermarket opens.

Often, the supplies would be delivered from the Lianhua Shengxing underground parking garage by the garrison, and before they could even be unloaded, they would be ordered by someone else.

All Dafu and Xiaofu need to do is jump into the truck bed and announce what supplies are inside.

Wholesalers raised their hands, indicating they wanted to buy, specifying how much they wanted, and told customers to load themselves onto the truck bed and unload the goods.

Qin's mother pulled Ma Zhixuan aside and watched for a while, then whispered to Ma Zhixuan,

"In just a few minutes, the transaction volume reached tens of millions."

I don't know where Hua Mi got so many goods. Look, even the people helping her transport them are garrison troops.

This shows that, just as Fang Xin said, Hua Mi has many powerful backers.

Qin's mother thought to herself that her son also deserved credit for this.

This was the first time Ma Zhixuan had ever seen such a situation.

Standing amidst this bustling scene, he felt incredibly small for a moment.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the snowflakes are falling like goose feathers. The visibility is very low. Normally, this should be noon during the day.

But it looked like evening, an evening with heavy snow falling.

Ma Zhixuan and Qin's mother stood there for only a short while before they were frozen stiff like dogs.

There were also small vendors waiting nearby.

These small vendors don't have much capital. They can only pick up the leftovers after the big vendors have finished wholesaling, and then try to resell them.

They glanced at Qin's mother and Ma Zhixuan, and someone kindly said to Qin's mother,

"You also wholesale goods and sell them outside the city, right?"

"Do you want to come with us to pick up a truckload of goods?"

This is a group-buying event that recently took place among street vendors.

Because supplies are in short supply, especially food and warm clothing.

However, as truckloads of supplies arrived, they were quickly snapped up by the large vendors.

In the end, the goods that small vendors can buy wholesale are often pitifully small.

In addition, Qin Zhen has now squeezed in, and he buys supplies by the ton.

Life is even harder for street vendors.

So they came up with a plan: all the vendors banded together and bought an entire truckload of goods at once.

Then everyone would divide it up privately.

Ye Rong was happy to do this, because she was really too busy to handle it all. She was selling truckloads of supplies, and Da Fu and Xiao Fu didn't have to climb onto the trucks and shout to each other.

Many diligent people are doing this now, because there are no free supplies to eat in Xiangcheng and Bcheng, so people with little money naturally have to find ways to increase their income.

Upon hearing this, Qin's mother glared at the kind-hearted vendor.

"Do I look like the kind of person who would do this kind of thing? I'm here to find my son and daughter. I've never done anything like setting up a stall in my entire life. Isn't that shameful?"

"If my relatives saw this, wouldn't they laugh at me to death?"

The kind-hearted street vendor: "."

He felt it was fine; why was setting up a stall shameful?

There are no more job opportunities in Xiangcheng now. They are not doctors, police officers, garrison troops, lawyers, or judges. They don't have three heads and six arms to go up mountains and down to the sea to find supplies in a world prone to disasters.

Then they could only engage in this kind of buying and selling, which not only supported themselves but also allowed them to infiltrate supplies into other cities.

How is that shameful?

But Qin's mother didn't think that way. Back in their small town, Qin's mother was a person with a proper job.

A secure job, guaranteed income regardless of drought or flood, an outstanding son, and a daughter admitted to a prestigious university—they were once the envy of countless relatives and friends.

It was too much for Qin's mother to bear the thought of someone as respectable as her setting up a stall on the street to hawk her wares.

The kind-hearted vendor only mentioned it briefly, but seeing Qin's mother's disdainful objection, he curled his lip and deliberately moved away from her.

I will no longer try to persuade Qin's mother.

In fact, Ma Zhixuan couldn't bring himself to do it either.

He looked around and whispered to Qin's mother.

"It's too cold here, and we don't know what kind of monsters and demons are around. Auntie, let's go back."

"I'll go ask my brother for help and see if he can find a solution."

I need your monthly votes! I need your monthly votes! It's almost the end of the month, I need your monthly votes!
