My Fort Supermarket

Chapter 162 Satisfaction, Greed

"Open the door, I'm back!"

Ruth walked to the dilapidated courtyard door of her own house. Although the door could be kicked open with a little more strength, it could still provide shelter from the wind and rain, and she dared not ask too much for it.

"Sister, did you bring food back? My brother was hungry for another day, so he drank some water and fell asleep! I'm afraid, I'm so afraid that he will fall asleep and won't wake up!"

The one who opened the door was a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old, three years younger than Ruth.But with a thin body, he looked no different from a child in his early ten years old, and the tattered clothes made the little girl look very pitiful.

"Bring it, I brought a lot of food! It's still hot, sister, you eat some too, I'll feed my brother!"

Ruth had tears in her eyes, but she didn't dare to stand outside the door for too long.After she entered the door, she felt that the door was closed, and then used the unreliable door bolt and a long stick to hold the wooden door, and then pulled her bony sister and walked towards the dilapidated room.

Because of the lack of food and clothing, everything that could be sold in the family and could not be sold had already been sold.Although there are occasional good-hearted people who come to help and send some food and supplies, there are also some wicked people who occasionally come to make trouble. They have been living a miserable life that they may not even know if there will be a tomorrow.

There are still many families like them in the town, but most of them are concentrated in the east of the city.Most of the group of maids who served Johnny came from here.

After Ruth closed the door, she couldn't wait to take out the lunch box, and stuffed one of them into her sister's hand.Then he walked towards a thin figure lying on a pile of haystacks and covered with an old quilt.

"I've already eaten it, eat it quickly! Don't be noticed, we didn't even have a bite at that time!"

Maybe it was because the smell of rice in the lunch box was very tempting, the figure lying in the haystack moved, and then a faint moan came out.Ruth had tears in her eyes when she heard it, she hurriedly knelt aside, helped up the younger brother who opened his eyes and forced a smile on his face, and stuffed the food in the lunch box into him bit by bit. mouth.

"Sister, eat too, I'm full!"

The very sensible little boy regained some strength after taking a few mouthfuls, and he opened his mouth weakly and said to his sister who was hugging him and feeding him.

"There's more, there's a lot more, you eat more, we won't be hungry again in the future!"

Sister Ruth, who was squatting by the side, looked much better, but it was only because she hadn't groomed and washed for a long time that she looked so embarrassed and unsightly.The moonlight is good tonight, and you can see some surrounding objects clearly without turning on the lights.The younger brother may have seen that there was indeed a lunch box, which was carried by another sister, and he was indeed hungry, so he swallowed more and more.

That night, the three of Ruth and her brother cuddled together and slept soundly and sweetly.The feeling of being filled with delicious food also makes their little hearts feel very satisfied.Even in the night when the night wind was howling, they had a dream that they hadn't had for a long time.

However, not all of this town is so quiet and beautiful. It is near several newly opened shops with particularly good business today.Several figures were blocked by the shadows in the corner of the wall, and the moonlight occasionally spilled over, reflecting pairs of greedy eyes.

Almost at the same time, each figure took out some crude weapons and ran over cautiously.With agility, they climbed up the roof, or pried open the door of the store, and then rushed into the store with a look of impatience.

There was a burst of mourning and howling, accompanied by the sound of ping-pong clanging and weapons colliding, followed by figures rolling and crawling, escaping from the shop door in embarrassment.However, they had only half-passed the threshold, and there seemed to be a huge force behind them pushing them. For a moment, the figures that flew or crawled out fell in a crowded pile at the door.

"roll!"

There was a cold and murderous yell from inside the store, and the group of people who were moaning and moaning suddenly felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts.Regardless of his injured body, he half-limped and half-limped, and walked towards the distance.

The few unlucky people who were thrown out seemed to be injured more seriously.Seeing the person who couldn't see his face clearly at the door of the store, he was about to draw out the sharp blade of the scabbard in his hand, so he didn't care about pretending to be dead, and asked his companion who was walking away to take him away.However, their calls were like the urging talisman of the god of death, but it made those companions who had already gone far away go faster.They had no choice but to move forward in embarrassment, not daring to stay here for a while longer.

Of the dozen or so shops, except for the newly bought ones today, most of them were found by uninvited people.It's just that they took advantage of it, but there wasn't one.In the dead of night, the slightest movement would wake people up. Those who lived near the shop, some opened the window and looked at it for a while, and some boldly opened the door to see it more clearly.

The next day, the rumors about the newly opened store being robbed by people, but being taught a terrible lesson, suddenly made the people in the city more talkative after dinner.But any signboard on the store door with the word "supermarket" written on it, no matter how remote it is, is visited by curious people.

In the morning, the business sales of more than [-] stores have caught up with the turnover of the whole day yesterday.After hearing the news, Jonny just smiled, and then waved his hands to let Ruth and Dolly lead a dozen maids to start busy with the restaurant.

Today, not only some servants and servants who heard the news, but even Libido also pulled Regolo to visit in person.They discussed the time for the whole morning and drank several pots of tea before they were satisfied and took several large boxes on the two carriages and walked towards the city lord's mansion.

"Go and tell Sachi and An Zige that the news can be released tonight! By the way, we should find some reliable people and stay to help or help. It will be difficult if there is no one!"

"Yes, Manager Joe!"

Johnny waved his hand, telling those burly and strong men to leave and get busy.The maids on the side who were busy packing their things were a little hesitant to say something after hearing what the castle master said, but they looked down again when they saw that Johnny was thinking about something. Head, silently tidying up the things in the yard.

The three mermaid sisters have been able to freely walk in and out of the yard. Although the fishtails on their lower bodies are somewhat inconvenient, the remaining servants have accepted the existence of the Sea Clan after a day of getting along.They didn't dare to show the panic and uneasiness in their hearts. Qiao Li and the others didn't look vicious, but they were able to say a few words occasionally.
