Rebirth in the end times: The whole family keeps a low profile

Opposite the Su's Grocery Store is a shop selling second-hand books. The owner is a middle-aged man in his fifties, surnamed Ge. Today he was very envious of the Su's Grocery Store opposite. When business was best in the morning, his store also sold several books. Those people couldn't squeeze in, so they just came to his store to hang out.

All the books in his store are obtained from the library. The inventory in this store is just the tip of the iceberg. He has many more books outside the dungeon, so if the business is good, he will ask his son who works as a security guard to get him some more books to replenish the stock.

All the books in his store are obtained from the library. The inventory in this store is just the tip of the iceberg. He has many more books outside the dungeon, so if the business is good, he will ask his son who works as a security guard to get him some more books to replenish the stock.

Seeing that Su Yun and Wang Jie, a couple opposite, had put away the fluorescent board at the door and were about to close and lock the door, they looked like they were going home. Uncle Ge quickly put down his reading glasses and asked, "Hey, young man, are you guys going home to eat before coming back? Let me tell you, today is the opening day, and there are the most people at noon. If you go back now, you will lose a lot of customers."

Seeing the other party's kind reminder, Wang Jie nodded politely and said: Uncle, we are off work. The store is sold out and we will not open until tomorrow.

Uncle Ge said enviously: You young people have good vision. Your business is the best this morning. All the products were sold out in just half a day. It's so enviable.

Su Yun also asked with a smile: Uncle, what books do you have in your store? Several children at home are starting school today, and I also want to see if there is anything they need.

Uncle Ge laughed and said: Hey, sister, I have a variety of books here, ranging from teaching aids to literary works, and some pencil cases that were popular before the disaster. If you are interested, come and have a look. We live next door to each other, so I definitely can't earn any points from you.

At this time, Su Yun also locked the door. Although she was a little hungry, she was in a good mood and decided to take a walk before going back for lunch.

The two of them entered the bookstore opposite, one after the other. The bookstore was not big, with the same area as Su's grocery store. The wooden shelves for displaying books looked very familiar. Upon closer inspection, they were all the shelves used to stack books in bookstores in the past. It seemed that Uncle Ge had some skills. There was a dim light on in the bookstore, which was a standard feature of every store in the trading center. The exclusive grocery store also had a similar light, which was energy-saving and environmentally friendly and did not consume much electricity.

The cashier counter in the bookstore was converted by Uncle Ge from a large desk. It can be used for working or reading. There is a sofa chair behind it that looks like real leather, which looks very comfortable.

Su Yun smiled and said: Uncle, you really know how to enjoy yourself.

Uncle Ge waved his hand: Haha, sorry to make you laugh. My sons and his friends got you here. We have been looking forward to the opening of the trading center for a long time. It’s just that we don’t have many points left after renting a house, so we decided to rent this shop after gritting our teeth. Our future business will depend on your care.

Wang Jie walked around the bar and looked around the bookstore. Although the bookstore was small, the shelves were full of books. The books inside should have been carefully selected by Uncle Ge. The content was quite practical, and some stationery was also displayed to cater to the fact that school started today.

Wang Jie couldn't help but be curious: Uncle Ge, what did you do before?

As for me, I used to be a security guard in a library. Haha, I risked my life to save these books during my shifts. You don't know, those people pried open the largest library in Kyoto when it was cold, then went in and took the books home to burn them as firewood. They were simply destroying human civilization. I was on duty at the time and couldn't stop them. Later, I had no choice but to blend in with the crowd, took a lot of books and locked them in the warehouse, and then saved them.

It turned out that he was the library security guard. No wonder, the one who is close to the water gets the moon first. However, it can be seen that Uncle Ge himself likes reading very much. Wang Jie saw that there was a book "Five Thousand Years of Chinese History" upside down on his cash register, and a pair of reading glasses next to it.

They were just chatting and didn't plan to ask too many in-depth questions, so they just read slowly in the bookstore.

There is no shortage of teaching aids and stationery in Su Yun's space. He had already bought all of them when he was stockpiling goods in Shenzhen. Now he will see if there are some more practical books and some that he is interested in. After all, the books in Kyoto Library are very interesting, even if they are just the tip of the iceberg.

After watching quietly for ten minutes, she found some that interested her.

This fish atlas is a good book. It describes in detail the characteristics of various fish and the waters where they are distributed. It also comes with pictures. The key point is that it explains whether they can be put on the table.

The illustrated guide of China Wild Vegetable University is also good, containing popular science information about various wild vegetables.

Dual-use talents for the military and civilian sectors, fighting skills - one-hit kill, natural disaster manual, 400 scientific ways for farmers to get rich, zombie survival guide and extreme survival.

Su Yun flipped through the books for half an hour before he stopped. There was no other way. These books looked useful, so he bought them all. He could read them behind the counter when he got bored while working in the store.

Uncle Ge watched Su Yun constantly handing the books she liked to Wang Jie next to her, and quickly said: Hey, sister, it's okay if you borrow them to read back. You're just sitting opposite me. Just return them when you're done reading. There's no need to spend money to buy so many.

Su Yun said indifferently: It's okay, uncle. There are many people in my family. After I buy these books, everyone will take turns reading them. These books were selected by you before being put on the shelves. I think they are very practical.

Uncle Ge seemed to have found a soulmate and was very excited: "Oh, you figured it out. I started selecting last month. You don't know, there are all kinds of books in the warehouse. It took me half a month to choose them."

Wang Jie also praised: Uncle Ge, you have a good vision. Look, we have selected quite a few books at once. I believe your business will get better and better in the future.

Who doesn't like to hear auspicious words when just opening a business? Uncle Ge laughed and said: For what you said, everything you buy today will be discounted. Haha, we will be neighbors from now on, so just come to me if you need anything. It's not easy for us to survive until now, we should look out for each other.

The more Uncle Ge looked at the young couple, the more he liked them.

After calculating, Su Yun spent 1,200 points on nine books and four pencil cases. He didn't feel bad at all. These books were worth it, even more than worth it.

Uncle Ge didn't have any plastic bags for them to put their books in, so he just gave them a black canvas bag for students.

To be honest, the fact that he was willing to give the canvas bag as a gift shows that Uncle Ge really likes Su Yun and the others.

After walking around the shopping mall, Su Yun and Wang Jie were not stingy. They would buy whatever they liked as long as they were in the mood. It was not that they were extravagant, but they were thinking that since the trading center was opened today, they also wanted to support the economic recovery.

When the two returned home, they had a lot of things hanging on their hands. In addition to the nine books and the pencil case, there were also wild vegetable cakes and a cloth bag of small potatoes. Wang Jie also took a fancy to a pair of brand new work shoes and spent several hundred points to buy them.

Mother Su looked at them carrying a lot of things back and couldn't help asking: "Aren't you two going to sell goods? Why do you act like you're going to buy goods? Look, we can't finish all these cakes. We bought such a big bag, at least five kilograms, and such a small potato. What can we do with it?"

Dad Su hated it most that Mom Su and the children were arguing over points, so he quickly said: Hey, buy what you want, we don’t lack those points. No matter how expensive it was before, the children couldn’t even go shopping or buy anything. This is like a country bumpkin coming to the city, they definitely can’t be controlled.

Su Yun was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: Dad, can you describe what it means to be a country bumpkin coming to the city? We are not country bumpkins at all.

Dad Su chuckled and said: Yes, yes, my daughter is definitely not unfashionable at all, she is even a little fashionable. You have contributed so many points to the trading center today, how is your own store? I saw your brother came back this morning and said that today is the first day of school. He was afraid that Lili was too busy to eat, so he wanted to go to the school to deliver lunch to Lili and the children.

Yes, it’s already three o’clock in the afternoon, and it’s long past dinner time.

Su Yun: Dad, I'm hungry too. I'm hungry first and then I'll talk to you slowly.

Su Ma was sorting out the things the two brought back, saying something as she sorted.

Now Su Yun looks after the store every day, and every morning he puts some food for the day into the big refrigerator that looks very old.

Aunt Su and Mother Su don’t have to think about what to eat today. There is rice, flour, grain and oil at home anyway, so they can just eat whatever staple food is in the refrigerator.

Suyun looked at the dishes reserved for them, which were all kept warm in the rice cooker beside them. There was a plate of fried beans and a fish stewed in black beans. As soon as the pot was opened, steam rose up and looked good. The two of them picked up their own bowls and chopsticks and began to soothe their hungry stomachs.

While eating, Su Yun talked to his father and mother about what happened in the store this morning.

When Su's father learned that the store's products were so popular that they were only open for half a day, he felt it was a pity. The income from just half a day could pay for several months' rent. This business must be too good to be true.

Mother Su said worriedly: "It's good, but it's not a long-term solution. We can't sell like this every day. We have to think of ways to get some things from outside the base to sell. I heard you say that the owner of the bookstore opposite opened his bookstore by getting a lot of books from outside. If we can also get a large amount of supplies from outside, then we will have a constant supply of goods."

Wang Jie: Mom is right. When the store is stable, we will have to follow the official dungeon to do missions, so that we will have a chance to get some things back.

Dad Su: Forget it. It’s so dangerous out there. Let’s just sell less and be less greedy. It’s enough as long as we can support our family.

Su Ma: Well, that’s true. Being together as a family is more important than anything else. It’s enough to have enough points to spend. Don’t be greedy.

Wang Jie: Mom and Dad, no matter what, we will discuss with you wherever we go.

Half a month passed like this, and Su's Grocery Store became famous in Wuyuan. People could always find some good goods in Su's Grocery Store that were not available in other places. Su's Grocery Store did not display many goods like on the first day, as if the supply was a little insufficient. Every day, there would be some luxury facial masks and Dabao in the glass display cabinets, but the quantity was extremely limited and they were often out of stock, so the young women sent people to line up in front of Su's Grocery Store to buy them. The bookcases in the back were only half filled, and the prices were quite expensive. They were items that most people could not afford but would envy, such as a 9999% new tablet that even came with a charging cable, an absolute luxury item, priced at points, which was an amount of points that ordinary people could not even dream of. Only families that really had a lot of points would ask a few more questions. And those cigarettes, alcohol, and tea were all unaffordable for people who were not from the Three Abysses or above.

Of course, there will also be small gadgets that ordinary people can buy placed randomly: rubber bands, lighters and some small dolls that are taken out when opening blind boxes.

In short, Su Yun regarded the Su's grocery store as the processor of his own space. Anything unwanted and useless would appear randomly in the exclusive grocery store.

This has led to many customers who have bought their favorite products always wanting to try their luck, so a large number of people follow suit and come to Su's Grocery Store every day.

The Su family grocery store was basically only open half a day, and the remaining half a day was basically used to introduce jobs to the Flying Dragon Team. As the store had more traffic, the Flying Dragon Team also received some odd jobs, such as reinforcing houses, repairing home appliances or electrical appliances, and some people came to Alan for medical treatment. However, the price was not high each time. Sometimes, Alan's father went up and down dozens of stairs just to repair a rice cooker for someone, and only earned 20 points. Sometimes, my eldest cousin came up to work as a porter for others, and he worked very hard to earn 30 points.

This amount of points is not enough to support a family, let alone save for rent.

So in order to get the Dragon Team into shape sooner, Wang Jie studied the point tasks issued by the dungeon every day and discovered a complete set of methods that the whole family can use to earn points.

In this way, people who stay at home start to have fewer random thoughts.

Su Ma, Su Xiaogu and Xiao Jing used to work in the Planting Department. Wang Jie asked them to apply for related jobs in the Planting Department every day. It didn’t matter if they were not selected, they could just go to the Planting Department to adopt seedlings and cultivate them. As long as they raised them well and got recognition, they could also earn points.

Su Ma also distributed the small potatoes that Su Yun bought to everyone so that they could take them home and plant them.

Men are so weird. The eldest cousin and the younger cousin often come to Su Yun's grocery store to help people ride rechargeable bicycles. Some people want to charge but don't want to exercise. They can ask someone to help them ride by adding five more points. The two cousins ​​call it making money and exercising.

However, not everyone was miserable and had nothing to do. Lan's father got a lot of work with his skills and the reputation of the Su's grocery store. He was busy every day. Su Zhibang and Wang Zhihui were so envious that they offered to be his apprentices and help him out.
