My Days Running a Supermarket in the Apocalypse

These words caused another uproar in the crowd.

The news that "a strange, pretty girl is selling supplies at the base" has already spread throughout the base.

More and more people came out to watch the spectacle.

People kept coming out of the base and heading to Shannai's side.

Most of the special ability teams were out on missions during the day, while the remaining members were currently engaged in a fierce battle at the entrance.

They were all ordinary survivors, and they simply couldn't resist the temptation of these supplies.

Coupled with Yamana's statements about safety, some people at the scene have already begun to waver.

"They even have a bus to pick you up! That's amazing! Gas must be so expensive..."

"Yeah, the ticket only costs 2 points. Did you see that just now? A level 1 crystal core can be exchanged for 100 points!"

"I checked, a bottle of water costs 6 points, and a bowl of beef noodles only costs 14 points! I don't care anymore, I'm going to buy it! Boss, please make me a member first!"

A round-faced auntie ran up to Shannai with several pieces of gold and silver jewelry in her hand, looking very devout.

She doesn't have any extra crystal cores.

Her son usually earns crystal cores by going out, which are generally used to pay rent and management fees.

Living in the apocalypse, these few pieces of gold jewelry were not of much use, but she couldn't bear to throw them away. She wanted to keep them as a memento, so she has kept them until now.

Yamana also very enthusiastically helped her register for a membership.

"Haha, 155 points! Oh ho ho, little girl, oh no, little boss, thank you!"

The round-faced aunt was very happy and excitedly held the cat-head membership card.

She immediately began her selection; she had her eye on that eight-treasure duck for a long time! She had to get it; she'd save the duck legs for her son!

Once the auntie took action, the others stopped holding back and all started to get involved.

Unfortunately, Yamana didn't bring many supplies with her.

There are quite a few people gathered here, easily over a hundred in total.

This amount of supplies is definitely not enough.

The supplies were sold out in less than half an hour.

"Ahem, everyone, please stop for a moment. I didn't bring many supplies today, and they've all been sold out so far."

Yamana wiped the light sweat from her forehead and continued, "However, you can continue to apply for memberships and redeem points. As long as you accumulate enough points, the supermarket bus will be waiting at the base gate at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. At that time, you can go to the supermarket to shop!"

"What?! The supplies are gone?!"

"Not a single one left? I didn't get anything!"

"I finally managed to squeeze to the front, and it's gone before I even saw a hair?! Are you kidding me?"

"Sigh! They wouldn't be lying to us, would they..."

"Waaah, Mommy, I want peach soda..."

Shan Nai was so thirsty that her mouth was dry.

I had just taken out the last bottle of peach soda when I saw the little boy next to me crying his heart out.

Ah…this…

She hesitated for a few seconds, but still decided to open it and drink it.

If she gives the bottle of peach soda to the little boy, the others will surely say she's unfair and biased.

Forget it.

"Little friend, when the bus comes tomorrow, you can go to my supermarket to buy soda, okay?" Shan Nai put away the soda and comforted him.

"Customers, please believe me, I have no reason to lie to you. Don't worry about topping up your account; there won't be any problems. Once you accumulate enough points, a private bus will come to pick you up!"

Shan Nai was explaining with great sincerity.

The disappointment in everyone's eyes was undisguised.

They all hung their heads, their faces filled with bitterness.

The person who bought the supplies was very pleased with themselves and even spoke up for Shan Nai, trying to convince those around them to believe her.

Some people who exchange special items don't seem to have any concerns.

But those who already possessed crystal cores hesitated greatly.

Crystal nuclei are difficult to obtain.

"You've got what you want, so of course you're not afraid anymore. Don't make sarcastic remarks. If you get scammed, will you compensate us for the crystal cores?"

"Yes, yes, I can't believe it..."

Shanna listened intently to their heated discussion, pouting as she checked her points on the back end. "Only 3000... far from enough."

Yes, they don't trust us because they can't see the supplies, but we can't bring all the supplies over; that's against regulations.

Yamana and the system were secretly discussing a solution.

"I believe her."

A deep voice came from behind.

It is the Chu River.

"The leader is here!"

"Have the Wolf's Den members been dealt with, leader?"

Are we safe now?

Chu He pursed his lips and walked to Shan Nai's side, waving to everyone, "Well, it's resolved. We should especially thank this boss for our great victory this time!"

As soon as the battle on the other side of Chu River ended, they immediately inquired about Shan Nai's whereabouts.

I was relieved to learn that she had entered the base.

It would be best if such a capable person could be recruited as a partner.

However, Chu He was overthinking it.

On the way back, his subordinates gave him a brief report on what Yamana had done at the base.

It turns out they really were selling supplies.

interesting.

Then it's even more important to build good relationships. There are hundreds of people in the base who need to eat and drink, and there are only so many people with superpowers. The pressure is already immense.

How could Chuhe not be happy to run into a supermarket owner?

As for questioning Shan Nai's identity or background, or whether her behavior is suspicious, that is no longer Chu He's main concern.

Given that girl's special ability, she might have other special abilities as well.

As long as Shan Nai has no hostility, having more friends means having more options.

Chuhe's only wish was that the survivors at Hope Base could have an extra bite to eat every day, so that they could still have some hope and anticipation for the future.

The appearance of Shannai gave his ideals a chance to come true.

"...As I said, this boss is also our benefactor. If it weren't for her righteous help, our base would have been defeated today. I'm willing to trust her supermarket! Little boss, please help me get a membership card too."

Chuhe, filled with gratitude, took out a soft leather bag and handed it to Shannai.

[Great! The leaders are willing to believe in the host; there's hope now.]

Indeed, when Shan Nai heard Chu He's defense of her, her heart warmed, her eyes sparkled, and a joyful smile appeared on her lips.

"Okay, thank you for your support." Shannai took out the mini membership redemption machine and scanned the man in front of her.

After entering the information, Shan Nai poured out the crystal cores from the bag to redeem points for stored value.

"This leader is an honest and upright boss, not very wealthy. He has more crystal cores than that Luo Shen guy..." Shan Nai said to the system in her mind.

Yamana was right.

Half of Chuhe's savings were used to maintain the Hope Base.

In addition, upgrading superpowers also requires crystal core energy, so the personal treasury is only enough for daily expenses.

"Alright, you've redeemed a total of 3750 points. Keep the membership card safe," Shan Nai said gently.

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

With over 3000 points, she is the biggest client Shannai has ever served, and she is very satisfied.

With Chu He's strong support, the members of his team and the other teams that had just returned were all excited and took out their wallets.

Although they seemed unusually excited, they were still very well-behaved.

A dozen or so tall men, each about 1.8 meters tall, stood in neat rows beside Chu He, waiting for Shan Nai to process their application.

Most of them were veterans before the apocalypse, so they were quite self-disciplined.

"Hello, my name is Chu He. What is your surname, boss?"

"Yana, you can just call me boss." Yamana smiled playfully.

What's your surname? To be honest, she doesn't actually have a surname. Her name was given to her by the local earth god, who said that 'Shannai' is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, and a local name is good for raising animals!

Chu He nodded, a hint of sadness flashing across his eyes.

He gave up his spot so that others could come and redeem their points.

Beautiful things always make people linger.

This mysterious girl named Shan Nai reminded Chu He of his younger sister, Chu Ci.

My sister died trying to save me after the apocalypse broke out.

Died in the mouth of a zombie...

Drenched with blood.

At that time, he hadn't awakened his superpowers yet, and he wished he could be the one who died.

My younger sister was only sixteen years old that year, as bright and energetic as Yamana.

How could she, who is usually timid and weak, push herself away at such a dangerous moment and face the terrifying zombies alone?

Chuhe felt a pang of pain in his heart.

The wisps of hair on his forehead slightly obscured his eyebrows and eyes.

He turned around, walked to the big tree, and stared blankly at Shan Nai's busy back, lost in thought.
