My supermarket is connected to all worlds, and I've won so much money handing it over to the st

"The country will not abandon anyone, so there is no need to worry about running out of food if we go to rescue others. We brought enough food with us this time, so we will not be short of food."

Gu Xixi knew their concerns and continued to explain.

"Fellow countrymen do not deceive fellow countrymen."

Starving and having just eaten their first meal, the group collapsed on the ground, speechless for a long time. After a few seconds, one of the villagers finally raised his hand.

“We are worried, but it’s not that we are unwilling. It’s just that we haven’t eaten normal food for a long time, we can’t walk, and we don’t want to talk.” At the beginning, we saved up and ate only one meal a day, and only ate until we were 70% full, then 50% full, and then 30% full.

Then it got to the point where they mixed in tree roots and bark powder, and finally they ate dirt. Their water intake also changed from a bowl of water a day at the beginning to drinking whenever there was water, and drinking the blood of livestock when there was no water, and now they are just waiting to die...

They were truly exhausted, both mentally and emotionally, and didn't want to move, which is why they didn't react immediately.

When they hear about sharing food, their first reaction is usually strong reluctance... but after filling their stomachs, their minds are clearer, and they come to terms with it.

The country sent its soldiers to provide disaster relief. They have enough to eat, so why should they think they can decide how the food is distributed?

Because they are disaster victims?

When the country comes to their rescue, they are flesh-and-blood people; when there is no time to save them, they are no different from livestock. Besides, this girl said that we are all compatriots.

The other villagers nodded with difficulty. Gu Xixi picked one who looked relatively energetic and had a soldier carry him while he pointed the way. The group set off again.

The two soldiers who stayed behind were responsible for scouting the village and looking after the remaining villagers, waiting to bring them all back to the supermarket later. Everyone needed some treatment, and it would be more convenient to bring them back to the supermarket.

There were only three people left in the second village that Gu Xixi was on her mission. When they arrived, the three of them were still grinding clay and their bellies were full. Gu Xixi patiently explained the situation and let them eat.

"Fellow villagers, after you finish eating, wait at the village entrance. We'll come back later and take you to our main camp. We'll treat your illnesses, understand?"

The three men nodded timidly, their eyes fixed on the military green uniforms the men wore, filled with trust.

To suit the national conditions at that time, the clothes were made according to the uniforms of the soldiers of that era, which were completely different from those of later generations. Although they were simple to wear, they made people feel particularly proud.

The group set off again, and the young man on the soldier's back spoke up. Judging from his voice, he had regained some strength. "The village ahead has the most survivors, but... I heard they've started eating people. You have to be careful."

Cannibalism?!

Gu Xixi and Chu Feng looked at the village not far away, where bonfires seemed to be lit, glowing red, with cries and noises mixed in!

The closer you get to the village, the louder the sound becomes.

Less than ten meters from the village entrance, there were several bonfires with several huge iron pots on top. Underneath the bonfires were three little girls, who were already on the verge of death, whether from hunger, illness or something else, it was unknown.

There were about 30 villagers surrounding them, which is indeed a relatively large village.

They all had fierce looks on their faces, their eyes drooling as they stared at the three little girls. Gu Xixi observed their expressions and state, and they were different from the people in other villages who were starving... They had eaten people!

And more than once!

Therefore, they bear the shadow of some zombies from the post-apocalyptic world.

Gu Xixi and the others quickened their pace. The villagers seemed to have noticed them as well, and they all turned around, like a group of wild beasts with only their animalistic instincts left!

Their faces, illuminated by the flickering firelight, no longer resembled human features.

"Soldiers? Women?! All of them are fair-skinned and delicate."

"Soldiers! They're soldiers!!! Village chief, are we saved? We won't have to eat people anymore!"

Where are you from?

……

Gu Xixi immediately raised her gun and fired once into the air before answering, "People's Liberation Army, the third squad of the national disaster relief team, here to deliver food to you, what are you doing here?"

Gu Xixi didn't intend to expose him; she was just pretending to be oblivious.

When a person is starving and has crossed moral boundaries by eating another person, they are no longer a normal person. She was afraid that if she provoked others, she would hurt them.

Furthermore, although cannibalism is immoral and she does not approve of such practices, as a disaster relief team, based on humanitarian principles, all human beings must be rescued.

Gu Xixi waved her hand, and Chu Feng brought out a large iron pot. The aroma of cooked food drew them in. Gu Xixi took the opportunity to untie the ropes binding the three girls and brought them to her group.

While the villagers were scrambling for food, Gu Xixi gave a hand signal, and the soldiers formed a defensive formation, raised their guns, and aimed them at all the villagers.

After the villagers finished eating, they immediately squatted down with their heads in their hands, looking up at everyone with fierce eyes.

Having ensured her own safety, Gu Xixi then told everyone her previous explanation and plan: "I still have a bag of grain here, enough for everyone to have a bowl. Are there any other people in the village? Bring them all out, eat, and leave with us."

"Officer, are we really guaranteed to have enough to eat from now on?"

"Where does the government get so much money to build houses?"

"You all look so fair and delicate, you must be eating well. You officials don't have to go hungry, humph."

"Shh, are you out of your mind?!"

……

Gu Xixi let them question her and vent their emotions. Once they had vented, they all cowered and waited to be taken back.

"There are only so many people left in the village, there's no one else. Let's hurry up and leave."

"Yes, you have to let us see the food. Only when we see the food can we feel at ease!"

"Sir, please don't be angry. I'm just too hungry. Let's not talk anymore."

……

With a stern face, Gu Xixi led the remaining disaster victims from the three villages toward the supermarket. At the same time, she was checking the number of effective disaster relief personnel in the system: 128 people!

She has fewer than 60 people here, and this number should be the total number of lives that have been effectively saved in all fifteen villages so far.

After working so hard, only 128!

The target is 80 people!

"Brother Tongzi, let's open branches for the supermarket, one in each of the affected provinces. Otherwise, it might not be enough time." So many people have come here, traveling long distances, and without food or drink, we'll suffer huge losses.

"In addition, could you provide me with some temporary shelters, with private rooms equipped with toilets and showers, and of course, other amenities as well?"

Gu Xixi looked at Shen Qingyan beside her.

“I can trade.” This disaster relief mission has no transactional element, so she has no reason to let the system give her anything more for free.

"A fully furnished single room costs 3000 a month, and a shared apartment costs 30000 a day. How much do you want for each?" Shen Qingyan turned around and, as he moved forward, took her arm.
