The True Thousand Gold Possessions of the Myriad Realms Trading System
Chapter 41 Visitors come like clouds
"Ah..." The bandit at the rear screamed in terror, "Boss—"
Then, in a flash, I found myself back in the small square at the main entrance of the mall.
The bandit blinked, and suddenly heard the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground beside him. He turned his head and saw that each of his brothers had been cut in half and were falling beside him.
"Ahhhhh..." The bandit was terrified and fired wildly in all directions with his gun.
Ruan Mianmian, her face pale, looked at Zhang Ying and the other two: "Sister Ying, are you alright?"
Zhang Ying helped Ruan Mianmian up: "We're fine, but you, were you scared?" Seeing someone being cut in half must have terrified you.
Those of them who had experienced war had seen all sorts of horrific scenes, so they weren't particularly afraid of what they had just witnessed.
Ruan Mianmian comes from a peaceful era, unlike them.
Ruan Mianmian felt a little nauseous, but she didn't dare let Zhang Ying, whose leg injury hadn't healed, help her. Instead, she helped another female comrade, Liu Fen, saying, "Comrade Liu Fen, please help me. I need to go out and say a few words to that bandit."
Liu Fen rushed forward to support Ruan Mianmian, gently comforting her, "It's alright, it's alright, don't be afraid."
Ruan Mianmian nodded gratefully to her, helped her to the door, and saw that the terrified good-for-nothing was about to run away with a gun that had run out of ammunition. She then shouted, "Go and tell everyone that anyone who wants to buy something here can only come during the day and trade with money or valuables properly. Anyone who breaks in at night or tries to force a sale will only face death."
The bandit, seemingly afraid of being killed by Ruan Mianmian, hastily replied, "I will definitely deliver this message..." and then ran away with all his might.
Ruan Mianmian glanced at the plaza in front of the entrance, and seeing no corpses or remains, breathed a sigh of relief. She then looked at Zhang Ying and the other two: "Are you alright?"
Zhang Ying and the other two shook their heads: "It's nothing. At first, we didn't understand the situation. The other party also tried to use us to threaten you into opening the door. We exchanged a few punches, but no one was injured."
Ruan Mianmian said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's safe here, but unfortunately I can't let you in."
“That’s only right. If just anyone could get in, you’d be in danger,” Zhang Ying said.
Liu Fen glanced at the sky and said, "Comrade Ruan, you should go back and rest. Let's go get some more sleep too."
Ruan Mianmian was a little worried about Zhang Ying and Liu Fen, but she couldn't let them in, and she couldn't help them if she stayed. So she said, "Then be careful. I'll get up early tomorrow and open the door early so you can come in."
"Don't worry, it's alright. That person was scared away, so no one should dare to cause trouble here again," Comrade Liu said with a smile.
Ruan Mianmian went back to sleep, and nothing more was said that night.
The next day, she got up at around 7 a.m., opened the mall doors, and invited Zhang Ying and the others in to have breakfast together. She charged them a large sum of money and gave them annual cards for ten people to eat at the mall, so Zhang Ying and the others could come in for breakfast three times a day.
The food in all the restaurants in the mall will be automatically updated after you finish eating, so you can eat it directly without needing a chef.
But Fatty said that this is a perk of the trial version; in the official version, you'll have to hire someone to cook for you.
Not long after everyone finished breakfast, five farmers arrived.
They approached cautiously, their eyes scanning the towering building, exclaiming in hushed tones, "How can something so tall exist? Is it really a house? Do they really sell food inside?"
After lingering at the entrance of the mall for a while, he cautiously approached like a startled bird. He told Ruan Mianmian that he was from a nearby village and had met some migrants who knew that one coin could buy 100 jin of rice. He asked if it was true and received an answer, but he didn't dare to go in immediately. Instead, he watched from the entrance for a while longer. Only after seeing Zhang Ying and the other two did he dare to go in.
After spending a large sum of money to buy 100 jin of rice, the five men went crazy with excitement. They left four men to guard the rice while they ran back to the village like madmen, calling everyone in the village who could afford to spend money to come and buy the rice.
After that, the mall became incredibly lively.
Some families couldn't afford a single coin, so they brought over the only silver ornaments they had.
Ruan Mianmian asked Zhang Ying to help estimate the value, but instead of getting any advantage, she ended up giving him more.
Some families don't even have silver jewelry, and they're in a real panic.
Ruan Mianmian thought for a moment and asked if they had any ancient bowls or furniture, including those from the Qing Dynasty, so she could bring them over and give them an appraisal.
So I also collected some old pots, pans, and furniture.
Perhaps it was because the villagers spread the word to their relatives or other villages, but soon villagers came in droves to buy rice, sugar, and salt.
Based on the situation, Ruan Mianmian asked Pang Baobao to set up a separate passage at the supermarket exit, so that villagers who had finished shopping at the supermarket could go directly to the cashier to pay without having to go through other shops.
In addition, Ruan Mianmian asked Pang Baobao to help pack up all electrical appliances and technology-related items. Outside the supermarket, all items that were out of step with the times were to be closed and disposed of.
Of course, these modifications all require payment.
Since learning that she owed tens of billions of yuan, Ruan Mianmian no longer cared about how much the renovation would cost—since she couldn't pay it off in a short time anyway, she didn't need to know so much.
In the afternoon, just as the villagers were happily carrying their supplies home, a large ship drifted down the river.
Seeing the villagers, dressed in rags, all beaming with joy, carrying large bags on their shoulders and holding various items in their hands, looking as if they had just had a bountiful harvest, the people on the boat couldn't help but stop the boat to inquire. When they learned that there was very cheap rice on board, they immediately rushed into the market like madmen.
Ruan Mianmian glanced at everyone and saw that their families were not poor, so she raised the prices of all items to be the same as those of this era.
Upon hearing the price, the passengers disembarking from the stunning beauty of Ruan Mianmian were pulled back to reality. They complained, "We're all guests, why are things so much more expensive for us?"
Ruan Mianmian smiled and said, "There is a reason for this. My strange shop exists mainly to donate to the poor. Since you customers are not from poor families, you naturally do not enjoy the benefits and discounts of donations. It's like a wealthy family giving out porridge; given your status and position, you can't possibly drink a bowl of such porridge, can you?"
That's true, but the fact that it's so much more expensive is really upsetting.
However, when these customers saw the pure white rice and sugar without any impurities in the supermarket, their mood immediately improved, and they felt that it didn't matter if the price was a little higher.
Seeing their satisfied expressions, Liu Fen, who was in charge of receiving them, smiled and said, "This is just ordinary rice. We also have premium rice here, in different grades, each with a different taste, but all better than ordinary rice. Would you like to take a look?"
A customer who was not short of money and loved to enjoy life immediately went to see it. After seeing it, he was very satisfied and said he wanted to take 100 kilograms with him.
