Chapter 8 Introduction
The big black dog sniffed the fragrant rice bowl, and its tail wagged with excitement, and it began to eat without any hesitation.
Shannai looked at the big black dog and thought, "This dog should be unusual, right?"
A dog that can survive in the apocalypse might have mutated.
"Hmm?...I'm not sure about that. Daikoku is certainly very brave and loyal!"
Song Ze blushed a little. This young boss was good-looking and had a sweet voice. Thinking back on his behavior just now, he felt that he was indeed ignorant, reckless and extremely stupid.
Shannai had been busy all morning and felt a little hungry, so she took her own cutlery from the kitchen, ordered a rice bowl, took it to the counter and started eating.
Song Ze could be seen eating at the cashier counter.
This guy seemed to be very hungry. He stuffed rice into his mouth one bite after another. Rice grains were stuck on his face and nose. His eating style was really uncouth, but it made people feel very appetizing.
Song Ze finished one portion in no time.
Maybe it was because he hadn't eaten a normal meal in three years, but he thought this tomato and egg rice bowl was absolutely delicious.
The tomatoes are slightly sour and salty, the eggs are smooth and delicious, the soup is thick, and paired with plump grains of rice, this classic combination is simply wonderful and delicious!
Especially after taking the first bite, his taste buds were trembling and he almost cried with excitement.
After finishing his meal, Song Ze couldn't help but order another one.
Seeing Song Ze eating so enthusiastically, the bowl of galangal was almost finished. "Burp~" she burped and drank a small cup of beauty-enhancing fruit tea.
This portion is quite a lot, and he ate two. This young man has a really good appetite.
After eating, Song Ze wiped his mouth and slumped in the chair with satisfaction.
All the hardships I had endured for survival in the past few years seemed to have disappeared with this rice bowl.
He has to plan carefully to save crystal cores when he gets back, so that he can come to Lucky Supermarket every day to eat and buy supplies!
Song Ze pursed his lips and walked away with the big black dog in high spirits.
Before leaving, he solemnly apologized for his behavior when he just entered the supermarket.
Shannai didn't blame him. It was his first time and the system had punished him. He just needed to come often in the future.
"Still 300 short!" After wiping the table, Shanna clenched her little fists, and her soft cat ears flickered.
…
Song Ze's hiding place is a few streets behind Lucky Supermarket.
It was a dilapidated apartment building, only half of it was left after the earthquake.
"Woof woof woof!" Dahei suddenly looked like he was fighting and started barking loudly.
"who?"
As soon as Song Ze went up to the second floor, he found a strange aura in his territory. He frowned, quickly drew out his dagger, and was ready for battle.
"Ahem... As expected, someone is here. Sorry, I'll leave now."
A figure staggered out of the room, and Cheng Xu leaned against the wall and apologized weakly.
He originally wanted to rest here for one night, but since there was someone there, he had to change rooms.
Ever since we were attacked while searching for supplies with the team a week ago, I don’t know what’s happened to the other members of the team, or whether my wife and children at home have enough supplies to survive.
He was also injured, but fortunately he had special abilities so the injuries were not fatal. He just hadn't eaten for a few days and was a little dizzy from hunger.
Song Ze could see that the man had no ill intentions. Seeing his pale and powerless face, he pulled Dahei to his legs, fearing that it would rush over.
"A few streets ahead, there's a Lucky Supermarket that sells supplies." Song Ze said this while holding his bag as he was about to walk down the stairs.
Born in the end times, don't blame him for having no sympathy. You are just an ordinary person with limited abilities.
But there will be fewer and fewer first-level zombies, so he won’t share his supplies with others.
He remembered that in the middle of the meal, the supermarket owner chatted with him for a while, saying that the supermarket had just opened and asked him to find someone to help promote it.
This... can be considered as helping her, Song Ze thought.
Cheng Xu was stunned, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
"supermarket……?"
"You'll know when you get there." Song Ze said in a cold tone, not intending to pay any more attention to him, and slammed the door shut.
Cheng Xu shook his head, thinking he was talking about a supermarket with supplies, but he had checked all the nearby supply stores when he entered the city, and there was no way it could be there.
He could only walk out holding on to the wall.
It's already past two in the afternoon.
The temperature was as high as around 50 degrees. Even though he was wearing little, he was instantly soaked. In addition, without any water intake, Cheng Xu was in very bad condition.
Although he didn't take Song Ze's words seriously, he had planted some seeds of doubt in his heart.
While walking, Cheng Xu wanted to see if there was a supermarket, whether consciously or unconsciously.
After walking for half an hour with difficulty and avoiding the zombies along the way, Cheng Xu actually found the Lucky Supermarket that Song Ze mentioned.
“…That’s strange. This supermarket didn’t exist a few days ago…” Cheng Xu scratched his head.
"Customer, come in and take a look~" Shannai saw the customer standing at the door and happily opened the door for him.
Cheng Xu was in a dishevel at the moment, with a scruffy beard and a stern face as he stared at Shannai stupidly.
This little girl is so cute.
He glanced at the environment inside the store. Although it was a bit simple, it was neat and clean. He couldn't help but pat the dust off his body before he felt comfortable going in.
The boss is clean and tidy, but I am totally disgusting in this outfit.
Cheng Xu is a careful man.
As soon as I entered the house, I noticed the shopping instructions on the wall. It was not difficult to guess that this young boss was a very capable person.
Being able to open a supermarket in the end times, with electricity and supplies, should not be underestimated.
Unfortunately, he had no crystal core on him, and the only two remaining crystal cores were with his wife Yang Liu.
"What do you mean by valuables?" He noticed the rules in the instructions.
"Rare metals, gold and silver jewelry are all fine." Shannai thought about the novice information in the background and explained.
Cheng Xu nodded slightly and felt all over his body, but found nothing.
Things like rings and necklaces were lost in the early escape and fight.
After thinking for a while, he pulled out a red rope from his neck. Under the rope was a mutton-fat jade peace locket the size of a fingernail.
"Is this okay..." Cheng Xu embarrassedly.
Shanna nodded, "Yes, please put it here."
【Exchange successful】
[Points balance on card: 24]
The jade button is a bit small and not very valuable, but Shannai is still smiling, thinking that even a mosquito leg is meat!
"Customer, here's your membership card. A shopping countdown will appear on the back of your hand in a moment. Don't be afraid, just pay attention to the time." Shannai reminded warmly.
Cheng Xu let out a breath and took the membership card with his detailed information printed on it. The whole process felt like a dream.
The peace locket I left for him was exchanged for 24 points? Thanks, Mom!
He quickly scanned the shelves: mineral water was 6 points, instant noodles were 5 points, and chocolate biscuits were 10 points.
I'm saved. My wife and son have food to eat. Although there are only 24 points, it's enough to save their lives.
The points are too few. Even though there is a discount, I can only buy two bottles of water and two packs of instant noodles.
After Cheng Xu paid the bill, he also saw the tomato and egg rice bowl at the serving counter. He didn't have enough points, so he could only swallow his saliva greedily.
"Boss, can I get some hot water?"
He naturally couldn't afford to buy food, so there were still a few points in his card after the discount. Seeing a water dispenser next to him, he thought that even making a packet of instant noodles would be a huge luxury nowadays.
Hot water?
Shannai looked at the instant noodles in his hand and remembered that he had asked the system about the hot water in the water dispenser bucket before.
She remembered that the system said that customers who had made purchases could use 1 point to buy enough hot water for instant noodles.
Her supermarket system is still very considerate.
"I understand. There are still 2 points on the card. I won't take it for nothing." Seeing that Shannai was a little embarrassed, Cheng Xu quickly handed over the cat membership card.
He could understand that water was too precious in today's world.
"One point is enough." Shannai said with a smile as he took the card.
Cheng Xu was very grateful. He had long been accustomed to the days of worrying about food and drink as soon as he opened his eyes. He didn't have a lunch box or anything like that in his bag, so he could only pour hot water into the instant noodle bag and eat and drink from the bag.
He couldn't bear to eat the whole piece, so he only broke off a small half. After he finished the soup, he carefully packed up the remaining pancake.
This chicken soup instant noodle is really authentic, with a strong chicken soup flavor, and even a few pieces of chicken and vegetable leaves. The bag is printed with "Specially produced by Lucky Supermarket", which is amazing.
Cheng Xu suddenly felt that his difficult survival had meaning. His heart was in turmoil and he took another look at the food in the dining area.
"Xiaohang hasn't tasted it yet..." he murmured.
When he finds his wife and children, he will definitely bring them here to eat.
"Xiao Hang?" Shannai heard Cheng Xu muttering softly and felt that the name sounded familiar.
"Oh, my son, haha, the kid has never eaten scrambled eggs with tomatoes and rice."
"A little boy of five or six years old?" Shannai asked.
Cheng Xu's eyes widened. "Yes, yes! Boss... what do you mean?"
"The first customer in my supermarket was a mother with a little boy named Xiaohang, so I remember it very clearly," Shannai explained.
"Really? Is that mother's name Yang Liu?!" Cheng Xu was a little excited, and his eyes brightened a little.
Shannai didn't notice this. "Sorry, customer information cannot be disclosed."
"I am her lover! We are..."
