"@Lin Luo, Mr. Lin, hello. I am Shan Mingliang. I would like to purchase your supplies. I wonder if you are interested?"

Shan Mingliang asked sincerely.

"I'm not interested. Go find someone else."

Lin Luo refused outright.

"Don't rush to refuse. Listen to my conditions first, and you can still refuse. For example, if you bought potatoes for one yuan, I'm willing to pay thirty times that price, which is thirty yuan per pound. Your banquet is worth seven or eight thousand yuan, and I'm willing to pay two hundred and one thousand yuan. As long as you deliver the goods to me, I will transfer the money to you immediately, without any delay."

"I can say that," Shan Mingliang said generously.

"Mr. Shan is so rich! The price has increased thirtyfold. Potatoes that nobody wanted before are now selling for thirty yuan."

"I used to think Lin Luo was stupid, what was the use of buying so many supplies? But now I realize that I was the clown. This is a chance to make a fortune."

"I don't know if Mr. Shan accepts other people's supplies. I have enough food for seven days at home and I'd like to sell some of it."

"Lin Luo has plenty of supplies at home, so he'll definitely sell a lot of them. In the end, Lin Luo will be the winner."

"If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have prepared more supplies no matter what. Unfortunately, there's no going back."

...

Because of Shan Mingliang's offer, everyone felt a surge of envy, jealousy, and resentment towards Lin Luo.

"Do not sell!"

Lin Luo replied simply.

"What? This Lin Luo is insane! He won't sell at such a high price."

"It's already the fourth day of the Ice Age. There are only three more days until the temperature returns to normal. By then, we won't be able to sell them even if we want to."

"It's not easy to find a great swindler like Boss Shan. Why is Lin Luo so clueless? If my family's supplies weren't only enough for three days, I would have sold a lot of them."

"It can only be said that Lin Luo has no sense of timing. He has missed out on financial freedom. When he works hard in the future, he will definitely regret what he did today."

...

Everyone criticized Lin Luo for being too foolish and having no sense of timing.

Shan Mingliang didn't give up: "You probably think my price is a bit low. Now I'm willing to pay forty times that price. A potato is worth one yuan, so you'll sell it to me for forty yuan. Such a good deal doesn't come often."

"Forty times! This Shan Mingliang is too rich. I heard that Lin Luo has two or three million in stockpiled supplies. If he takes out one million and sells it, he'll make forty million. With forty million, he won't have to work hard for the rest of his life."

"That's right. If Lin Luoxin were ruthless enough, she could keep some for herself and sell most of the supplies. She could easily achieve a small goal."

"I really gritted my teeth until they were shattered. The richest man, Mr. Wang, didn't lie to us. It's really easy to achieve a small goal."

"I thought Lin Luo was a bit silly for not selling at such a high price, but it turns out he wanted to raise the price."

"We thought we were clever, that we were already in the atmosphere, but now it seems we were too foolish. We never imagined that they were already in outer space, shoulder to shoulder with the sun."

...

Everyone was so envious of Lin Luo that their eyes bled, and they gritted their teeth to pieces.

"Still not selling."

Lin Luo replied without any hesitation.

“Mr. Lin, if you are not satisfied with the price, I can raise it a bit more. I can pay half the money upfront, and I will pay the rest once the goods are delivered to my home.”

"I'm not giving up," Shan Mingliang said.

"No matter what price you offer, I will not sell."

Lin Luo refused decisively.

"That's such a pity."

Shan Mingliang replied with regret.

"What is Lin Luo thinking? Shan Mingliang offered such a high price but he won't sell. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You'd better not regret it."

"If you don't sell supplies now, you'll regret it later. What a great opportunity, and you gave it to Lin Luo. If it were me, I would definitely make a fortune."

"@Shan Mingliang, Mr. Shan, I have a lot of supplies at home, such as potatoes, ribs, and green vegetables. The ingredients are absolutely fresh."

"I have a lot of instant noodles and instant hot pot at home. My family and I can't finish them all, so I'm thinking of selling some. Do you want some of the instant noodles?"

...

Seeing that Lin Luo refused to sell food, the others thought of selling some themselves.

"As long as the ingredients are fresh and not expired, I buy them at 35 times the market price."

"I can say that," Shan Mingliang said generously.

Lured by the money, his neighbor who lived next door was the first to complete the transaction with him.

A box of Master's Old Altar Pickled Cabbage Beef Noodles smells strongly of "foot odor" even through a mobile phone.

This pickled cabbage and beef noodle soup comes in 12 buckets, and the market price is around 40 yuan.

Despite the smell of feet in the Lao Tan pickled cabbage beef noodles, Shan Mingliang did not give the 1,400 yuan via WeChat transfer.

After purchasing the Lao Tan pickled cabbage beef noodles, he sent pictures of the goods and payment receipts to the owners' group.

Seeing Shan Mingliang's generosity, everyone finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Lured by money, the community's sub-zero temperatures of minus thirty degrees Celsius couldn't dampen the crowd's enthusiasm.

In just one hour, Shan Mingliang made dozens of transactions, spending nearly five or six million.

Many people, even though they didn't have any extra supplies at home, still took some out to trade.

"I made a fortune, I really made a fortune! I had three kilograms of cabbage at home, and the price of cabbage was five yuan per kilogram. I sold it for a total of 525 yuan. In the Ice Age, 525 yuan could buy 21 kilograms of pork ribs."

“I work in a private factory. I haven’t been to work for seven days, which means I haven’t had any money for seven days. I have elderly parents and young children to support, and I was worried about what to do next month. Just now, I sold ten pounds of pork ribs and earned nine thousand yuan, which is more than my monthly salary. I won’t have to worry about next month.”

"What are you guys talking about? I'm a food vlogger. I stocked up on a few Australian lobsters at home. I bought them for 3,000 yuan and sold them for 100,000 yuan. I sold all the remaining lobsters and made more than 500,000 yuan. With this big sum of money, I can be a couch potato for a year."

...

The entire homeowners' group was filled with laughter and joy; everyone felt they had gotten a great deal.

Shan Mingliang was happy to buy the goods, and the others were also happy to sell their goods and make money.

It seems that only Lin Luo is a great victim, having gained nothing.

"@Lin Luo, Mr. Lin, if you are willing to sell your supplies now, I am willing to buy what you have at a price more than thirty times the market price."

"I can't believe it," Shan Mingliang said provocatively.

Lin Luo was enjoying a sumptuous barbecue feast, with various kinds of barbecue laid out around the table.

There are grilled beef kidneys, grilled garlic oysters, grilled chives, grilled squid, grilled sausages, and more.

In the middle of all the skewers, a whole roasted lamb is placed.

The whole roasted lamb is made from a 50-pound lamb, which is marinated and roasted by a specialist until it is golden brown and crispy, with a tender interior.
