Chapter 29
The employees changed into new clothes and came down, all with high spirits on their faces.
Someone immediately came up and asked, "Hey, little beggars, what are you doing?"
The little beggar proudly raised his head and showed off: "These are the new clothes given to us by the boss, two sets for each of us."
This statement immediately drew envy from others. Let alone two sets, the number of new clothes they had worn in their entire lives could be counted on one hand.
“This benefit is really good.”
"That also requires the boss to be generous. Do you think such a boss can be found everywhere?"
"That's true, but I'm still envious. The quality of these clothes is really good."
"Don't be envious. The price has gone up a lot recently. I think buying a coat is just right."
"Yeah, I told you I've got my eyes on that brown one. It's sure to be very comfortable."
Damao arrived the earliest. After choosing his breakfast, he sat down opposite Ye Qing. Just as he was about to start eating, a tall and handsome figure walked towards him from Yu Guangzhong.
Damao immediately looked up in surprise, stood up suddenly, and quickly made way for him: "Brother Zeng, come and sit here!"
Ye Qing, who was sipping noodles opposite him, coughed suddenly when he heard this and almost choked on the beef noodles.
Zeng Yi always acted very cold in front of others. Everyone was in awe of him and called him Butler Zeng. Only a rough-skinned man like Deng Hailong would affectionately call him Big Brother.
Damao is a businesslike person who calls people whatever they want. But this obviously flattering address startled Ye Qing.
While thinking randomly, Ye Qing saw a glass of water and a tissue handed to him. The hand was white and slender with distinct joints. He could guess who it was without even looking.
She took the cup and took a sip. The water temperature was just right, her favorite 37 degrees Celsius.
"Thanks!"
Zeng Yi, who was already sitting opposite, shook his head. Realizing that Ye Qing was looking down and couldn't see, he said, "It's okay. It's just a small favor."
After thinking about it, he asked, "What were you thinking about just now?"
The expression is very strange.
Ye Qing immediately looked up and waved his hands guiltily: "Nothing, nothing, I just thought the clothing store will be very busy soon."
Zeng Yi nodded doubtfully, believing her for the time being: "Okay then, the clothing store hasn't hired the right staff yet, so I'll help you later."
Ye Qing did not refuse: "Okay."
After finishing a barbecued pork bun that was bigger than his face, Sanmao happily ran to Ye Qing and said, "Boss, can I go to the clothing store when there are no customers? I got my salary yesterday and I want to buy some panties."
Ye Qing looked at the plump little girl in front of him, and a sense of pride filled his heart: "Of course! As long as the work is done, you can do whatever you want!"
Sanmao clapped her hands loudly: "Great, great!"
Deng Hailong and his friends wanted to join in the fun after hearing this: "Boss, we'll take the bus back and go shopping too."
"No problem!"
After the meeting yesterday, they unanimously decided to increase the bus frequency to three times a day, one each in the morning, noon and evening.
At the same time, Deng Hailong's five hunter teammates were split up. Deng Hailong and two of them were responsible for bus operations, and the other two followed Tang Chao to be responsible for guarding and patrolling the shelter.
Although they were separated, their friendship did not diminish. They worked together, ate together, and even took a shower with two shower heads.
The restaurant suddenly started to fill up with customers. The group that had just arrived yesterday had never seen such a novel cuisine before and were as curious as Granny Liu entering a large manor. Meanwhile, the elderly people like Zhou Xiaohua and Zhu Ke had motherly expressions, as if to say, "See! I didn't make you regret it!"
After breakfast, one group of people was going to the dangerous forest to hunt. They only paused for a moment at the door of the clothing store before hurriedly walking out. Another group of people was wandering around the first floor.
As soon as 9 o'clock arrived, Ye Qing opened the door of the shop and stepped aside. The crowd rushed forward and ran excitedly towards the clothes rack.
After Ye Qing and Zeng Yi entered the cashier counter, they watched the chaotic yet joyful scene with interest.
Clothing is a scarce commodity, so she doesn't need to spend too much time trying to sell it, and people will buy it. She doesn't need to explain it, just try on the ones she likes, and if she doesn't like it, she can leave it in the dressing room or on the sofa. The system will return it to its original place, so she doesn't have to worry about it at all.
There are only 6 changing rooms in the clothing store, but they are all occupied by girls.
For example, Li Meng changed into a blue and white sportswear, and held a brown plaid jacket and a pink formal suit in her hands. After coming out of the dressing room, she stood in front of the dressing mirror and looked left and right.
"Sister Yihong, which one do you think looks good?"
"Sister Yihong!"
Xiao Yihong was looking at a pair of black panties. The panties were made of pure cotton, and the fabric was smooth and soft to the touch. She was struggling to decide whether to buy one or two when someone patted her shoulder.
Xiao Yihong shuddered, and when she saw the person coming, her face flushed. She felt a little embarrassed about being caught doing something bad. "Ah, what's the matter?"
Li Meng looked at the panties in her hand and smiled teasingly: "Oh, this is normal, why are you shy? They both look good, let's take them together. Anyway, we haven't worn new clothes for a long time."
Due to the mutation of plants and animals, the raw materials for clothing have long been consumed. The few remaining fabrics in the world are still stocks from before the end of the world, and are therefore extremely scarce.
The last time they made new clothes seemed to be 6 years ago. They dug out a few pieces of gray cloth in an underground factory, and each of the 10 people in the team was given a small 5-foot piece.
Li Meng used it to make a nightgown, and Xiao Yihong used it to make two sets of underwear. Now these clothes are already in tatters.
Xiao Yihong pinched it, and the silky touch moved her deeply. She gritted her teeth and said, "You're right, let's buy both. After all, we have to spend the money we saved."
Seeing Xiao Yihong had made her choice, Li Meng proudly spread her arms and spun around in front of her: "Sister Yihong, now tell me which one you're wearing looks better, this one, or this one?"
Xiao Yihong tapped his chin, hesitant for a moment: "Well, they all look good!"
Li Meng also sulked. "I think so too, but I still need to buy shoes and underwear, which costs a lot of money. You know I've been eating too much lately, and my money is going away very quickly."
Xiao Yihong suggested bewilderedly: "How about buying a set?"
Li Meng immediately rejected it and tightly grasped the clothes on her wrists: "Well, no, I want them all!"
Xiao Yihong: “…”
Women's love of beauty is inherited in their genes. They didn't have the opportunity before, but now they finally have the chance and they can't wait to buy every set. Therefore, this scene is very common in the store.
Ye Qingchu was standing at the cashier counter, looking very happy, all he needed was a small bag of melon seeds.
"Boss, check out."
The first group to finish selecting was Zhou Xiaohua, who held his daughter Xiaoya and placed a pile of clothes on the counter.
Ye Qing tossed the clothes into a large machine next to the cashier and hit the start button. With a click, the clothes were demagnetized and several packed paper bags were dispensed from the bottom of the machine.
Ye Qing took out the bag, looked at the screen on the machine, and said, "A total of 1,000 crystal cores. Wait, did you take the wrong one? Here's a women's coat."
She knew that Zhou Xiaohua, the captain of the Flying Tigers, was a bachelor and there was no other woman in his family except Xiaoya, who was less than five years old.
Zhou Xiaohua's face showed a hint of shyness, and he stammered, "Yes... I bought a coat as a gift."
Ye Qing smelled the scent of gossip and had an expression that said, "I understand, I understand."
Zhou Xiaohua didn't dare look directly at Ye Qing. He took the bag, handed over a fourth-level crystal core, and hurried out: "Boss, I'm leaving first!"
The customers had almost finished trying the products, and more and more people came to pay the bill. Zeng Yi also came to help, and the two of them were very busy.
All goods are clearly marked with prices, and the prices are honest. There will be no false high prices and then discounts at settlement.
Li Meng still bought 3 sets of clothes, plus 2 sets of underwear, 2 sets of autumn clothes, 2 pairs of socks, 1 pair of slippers, 1 pair of Martins, 1 hat, and 1 pair of glasses.
Without Ye Qing's instruction, Li Meng pulled out three crystal cores: "Is it 1200 crystal cores?"
Ye Qing: "Yes, you are really amazing."
Before Li Meng could say anything, Xiao Yihong answered for her: "Of course not, this is all the money left in my wallet, so I have to spend it wisely!"
Compared to people with special abilities, ordinary people are much more restrained and only buy necessities, most of them just buying a few pairs of underwear or a piece of clothing. But it does not prevent them from strolling around here. Even if they don't have money to buy anything, it is great to just look and satisfy their eyes.
Sanmao, Ermao and Xiaoqier also took advantage of the fact that there were no customers and came to browse in the clothing store. Seeing the boss standing at the counter, they felt a little uneasy at first as he was slacking off during work hours, but Ye Qing was always smiling and this uneasiness gradually dissipated.
They had never had any savings before, and the only money they had was the wages Ye Qing paid them yesterday, so they didn't buy much.
Several children each bought a set of autumn clothes, two pairs of underwear, and two pairs of socks. Children's clothes are half the price of adults', and the total cost was only 65 crystal cores.
Several people carefully took out a few crystal cores from the inner pockets of their jackets and handed them to Ye Qing solemnly: "Boss, please pay for it."
Ye Qing looked at these little adults-like children and smiled softly: "Okay."
Sanmao took the exquisite paper bag and held it in her arms, unable to let it go. "Finally, I have new pants to change into."
The little beggar did the same. As soon as he took the paper bag, he reached into the bag and said, "Me too. You don't know that my pants are so rotten that my butt is exposed."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ermao slapped him in the face. The little beggar covered his head with his hands and looked aggrieved: "Why did you hit me?"
Ermao put his arm around his neck and said, "Watch your words. My sister is still here and you're so arrogant."
Sanmao watched the two of them fighting and arguing and laughed: "Haha, little beggar brother shows off his big butt..."
The few of them were laughing and having a great time, as if the depressing life in the cave had passed years ago.
The clothing store was already a pleasant surprise, but what was even more amazing was that the clothes produced by the system actually had anti-radiation effects. The radiation protection effect of autumn clothes and autumn trousers was low, but the hooded jacket had a better effect.
Once the news was spread by the team of superpowers who returned from the dangerous forest at night, the publicity of the clothing store naturally went up a level, and there were countless buyers.
