I open a supermarket in the apocalypse

The base in the provincial capital is called Tianyang, so the name is Tianyang Base.

The road near the base was cleared, and the bus drove to the city gate smoothly. There were two long lines outside the city gate. The survivors in one line had no means of transportation, or were riding motor vehicles into the city. These people One should be survivors from nearby towns, villages, and the other is the driveway.

"Let's go to queue too." Chen Chong turned the steering wheel and drove the bus to another line. A bus was particularly conspicuous in the line full of small cars.

The team moved very slowly. Xiang Nanchuan and the others had finished their lunch in the car, and the team only advanced a few meters. Xiang Nanchuan and the others got out of the car and took a walk to digest food.

The off-road vehicle in front rolled down the window, and one person greeted them, "Hello."

Xiang Nanchuan glanced at that person, "Hello."

The man spoke enthusiastically, "Where are you from?"

"Western State."

The man was very surprised, "My God! Xizhou is so far away, how did you come here? I heard that the following cities have all fallen."

Xiang Nanchuan rubbed his forehead, he was the most impatient to deal with this kind of familiarity, he immediately changed the subject, "Where did you come from?"

"We came from Huai City. The situation over there is not that serious, but the base is not easy to mess with. I heard that the officials at Tianyang Base are more open-minded, so we came here."

Huaicheng is a city in the next province, and it is only a few counties away from Tianyang, so it is only an hour's drive away by car.

At this moment, the line on the other side had come to an end, and he waved to Chen Chong who was on the car in Nanchuan Chong, "Let's go to that line and wait for you at the base."

So Xiang Nanchuan ran to another team with Mu Dong and Xu Yuan. The person in the off-road vehicle in front was envious. At such a slow speed, God knows when they will have to wait until they can enter the base.

There were not many people in the front team, and it was Xiang Nanchuan's turn soon. The soldiers with live ammunition led them to a room to check whether there were any wounds on their bodies.They had been waiting in line outside for several hours. They were about to be scratched by zombies, and they would have turned into zombies long ago. Even so, they still insisted on checking.

After the inspection, they came out to register their personal information, and it was a young woman who registered for them.

The young woman glanced at a few people, "Are you the only ones?"

Xu Yuan pointed to the conspicuous bus in the opposite lane, and said, "That bus belongs to us, let's go to the base to see the situation."

"Are you applying for a temporary identity card? Or are you living for a long time? If you live for a long time, you have to pay part of the food or a first-level crystal nucleus, otherwise you have to work to pay off the debt."

Throwing three first-level crystal nuclei to Nanchuan, "Long-term."

The young woman asked them their names, ages, places of origin, etc., and finally asked them if they had supernatural powers, and said nonsense to Nanchuan: "Fixed body."

Xu Yuan said honestly: "The gold system."

Mu Dong said: "I don't have supernatural powers."

Before going to the provincial capital, they discussed this issue. There must be one or two supernatural beings in the team to deter those with malicious intentions. Xiang Nanchuan will open a branch when he comes to the provincial capital. When the supermarket opens , I don't know how many people have taken the idea of ​​​​the supermarket, so Xiang Nanchuan had better not hide his ability.

Xiang Nanchuan revealed early in the morning that his ability is "fixing the body", and no one doubted it. After all, they had witnessed Xiang Nanchuan "fixing" people.But Mu Dong's abilities must not be leaked out, so he pretended to be an ordinary person.

The young woman looked at Xiang Nanchuan curiously. The gold-type abilities were common, but this was the first time she had heard of the immobilization ability. She took out three palm-sized magnetic cards, stamped them, and handed them to them. "Okay, go in, there are guides inside, you can find them if you have any questions."

Xiang Nanchuan took the card, on which his name, age, and place of origin were written by hand, but he didn't write on the supernatural power, but it was true, just by casually talking, who would believe that you are a supernatural power user.

The provincial capital itself is a big city. It hasn't changed much before and after the end of the world, but it's a little messy. The pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, and their faces have a little popularity, unlike Yuhe, which is lifeless and insensitive.

As soon as I entered the base, I saw a group of children around ten years old coming up, "Hi sir, do you need a guide?"

"Sir, I can serve you. All I need is a loaf of bread or a packet of biscuits."

"gentlemen……"

Xiang Nanchuan's head hurt from the quarrel, he pointed at a random person, "That's her."

Seeing that Xiang Nanchuan had chosen a guide, the others pouted and dispersed, only the little girl who was pointed at by Xiang Nanchuan walked up timidly, "Hello, sir, my name is Nini, do you need to stay first? shopping?"

Xiang Nanchuan put his hands in his trouser pockets, walked away, "Let's go for a stroll."

Nini trotted to follow, remembering what the teacher taught during the training, she whispered: "Our base currency is credit points and crystal cores, and crystal cores are things in the heads of zombies. Ability users can upgrade their abilities through crystal cores." " The little girl stumbled, but fortunately Xiang Nanchuan and the others didn't mind, and motioned for Nini to continue.

Nini inexplicably gained courage, and unconsciously raised her voice, "However, we usually use credit points to buy things, and we need credit points to stay at the base, receive rations, and water."

Xiang Nanchuan looked down at Nini, "How to get credit?"

"You can take your ID card to the service center and exchange food or quilts for credit points. If you are a supernatural being, you can also receive ten credit points for free every day."

"If I want to rent a shop in the base and open a shop, how much credit do I have to pay?"

Nini was suddenly embarrassed, the teacher didn't teach her these things, she panicked, her voice trembled, and there was a hint of crying, "I'm sorry, I don't know, let me ask someone else for you."

Mu Dong gently stroked her braided horns, "It's okay, don't cry, we're just asking casually, brother won't blame you."

Nini carefully glanced at Nanchuan's face.

Xiang Nanchuan black line, does he look so scary?He also scared the little girl to tears, he waved his hand, "It's fine if you don't know, we just go over and ask and we'll find out."

Tianyang Base is divided into four areas: A, B, C, and D. Area A is the area where the base leaders, some officials and their families live, Area B is the area for some officials and people with supernatural abilities, and Area C is the area where the base leaders, some officials and their families live. In the gathering place of the residents of the provincial capital, these people have no supernatural powers, and need to rely on physical labor in exchange for credit points to barely solve the problem of food and clothing for a day.

And the place where they are located is the last area, D area.

There are two types of people in District D. One is ordinary people who have taken refuge from other places after the end of the world, and the other is people who have registered for temporary entry into the city. You must leave the base after the time, otherwise you will be caught by the patrol team, directly expelled from the base, and recorded on the blacklist. Unless you change your appearance, you will not be able to enter this base in this life.

Even so, there are some "illegal stowaways" who want to stay in the base because they can't pay the entrance fee, and play chase and hide games with the patrols every day.

The reason for this regulation is that there are too many survivors in the base. With the current material situation, the base can only last for another three months at most.

The provincial capital already has a population of more than 2000 million, and the urban area is a densely populated place, so logically it should fall the fastest.

In fact, after the outbreak of the last days, the hospital immediately realized that it was a highly contagious virus. The hospital immediately reported it to the provincial department, and the top leader issued an order to isolate all those who were scratched or bitten. The nearby military region immediately sent people from house to house to search for those who concealed their injuries. Even so, it took more than half a month before the zombies in the city were cleared.

Excluding the day when the end of the world broke out, one tenth of the people turned into zombies, and then some people were scratched and bitten by zombies one after another. In the end, there were about 500 million survivors, plus those who came from other towns to take refuge Survivors, there are now a total of 300 million people on the base.

Unlike Yuhe Base, the government here has no real power. The real power in Yangzhou Base is Admiral He of the Yangzhou Military Region. , improved the treatment of the supernatural beings in the army, and secretly supported the civilian supernatural team, and said that if the supernatural beings do not want to join the army, they can form their own teams, but the above also strictly controls the number of teams. The number of people must not exceed 1000.

After Xiang Nanchuan finished listening, he said, "Let's go directly to Area C."

District B is dominated by officials and people with supernatural powers. They certainly have plenty of food and drink, but not ordinary people. District D has a mixed population, so you can only choose District C.

Nini hesitated and said, "But Area C is a bit far away."

Xu Yuan suddenly shouted, "Our car is here."

When Nini turned her head, she saw a yellow sightseeing bus slowly approaching. The two headlights of the bus looked like a pair of big round eyes. When viewed from the front, it looked like a square face.

Nini was not yet ten years old, just when her childlike innocence was still young, she stared at the bus curiously.

"Get in the car." Xiang Nanchuan raised his chin towards Nini.

Nini climbed into the car, the compartment was very spacious, she counted silently, there were only twelve seats, the gaps between each seat were very wide, and the seats could be folded down for people to lie on and sleep on.

Nini didn't dare to move, she sat obediently in the front seat.

Xiang Nanchuan handed her a bottle of milk and an apple, "Eat."

Nini held the apple in her hands and swallowed uncontrollably. She smiled shyly, "Thank you brother."

Xiang Nanchuan peeled the peanuts and ate them, "Aren't you going to eat them?"

Nini hugged the apple tightly, "I want to take it back for my sister to eat."

Xiang Nanchuan teased her, "Aren't you afraid of being robbed on the road?"

Nini plucked up the courage to face Xiang Nanchuan, "I'm not afraid, I will let the uncles of the patrol team take me home."

Hey!This little guy is pretty smart, "Eat it, you can help us find the store later, and I'll give you another apple."

Nini's face was full of longing, she couldn't hold back, and took a small bite of the apple.

Mu Dong put the milk into the straw and handed it to Nini, "Do you know where I can find someone?"

"Who do you want?"

"Look for my mother, she came to the provincial capital on the day of the end of the world."

Nini replied seriously: "There is a task bar for finding people in the mission hall. You can go there to post information about finding people, but you need to pay credit points or crystal cores."

Xiang Nanchuan said: "Where is the mission hall? Let's go to the mission hall first."

"In District D, the service center is also in District D."

The bus has already driven a certain distance, and to go to the mission hall, we can only reverse the car and go back.

Mu Dong took a deep breath, "The store manager, since I've come to the provincial capital anyway, I'm not in a hurry." How could he not be in a hurry? When he was still in Xizhou, he wished he could fly to the provincial capital right away, but when he arrived in the provincial capital Afterwards, Mu Dong became cowardly, anxious, but also terrified, afraid of hearing bad news.

When the bus drove into Area C, it was interrogated by the patrol team. Chen Chong took out his ID card. After the patrol team checked it correctly, they explained that they could only stay in Area C until dark, and they had to return to Area D after six o'clock.

Nini explained: "People from outside can enter Area C as long as they have an ID card, but if they want to live in Area C, they are not allowed."

"What if it's a supernatural being?"

"You have to prove that you are a supernatural person at the service center before you can get the supernatural person's badge."

After entering Area C, they heard a burst of lively noise. The survivors here seemed to be living before the end of the world, with the haze on their faces, and all of them were filled with laughter. This is the commercial area of ​​Area C.

It was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and they saw someone setting up a stall on the side of the road to trade. The stalls sold everything, such as pots and pans, jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc., and some people were selling food. Snacks, instant noodles, homemade pancakes, rice noodles, noodles...

Chen Chong looked for a place to park, Xiang Nanchuan and the others got out of the car, and walked around for a long time. Finally, they came to a stall selling orchids, pointed to Nanchuan a pot of orchids that had bloomed, and asked, "How do you sell this pot of flowers?"

The old man stretched out three fingers, "Thirty credits."

Xiang Nanchuan took out three tomatoes from his backpack, "Exchange this."

The old man's eyes lit up, and he shook his head immediately, "I want ten. There is nothing growing in the field now. I managed to support these potted flowers. If it wasn't for the lack of water, I wouldn't be willing to sell them."

Xiang Nanchuan said slowly: "Up to five."

The old man thought for a while, and reluctantly agreed, "Okay."

After completing the transaction with the old man, Xiang Nanchuan held a pot of orchids and chatted with the old man for a while.He learned some information from the old man. After the end of the world, the government took back the ownership of the shops in the city, and the property rights of the shops were re-sold. According to the size of the shop, the price of a shop of [-] square meters is [-] credits, and so on. The store needs [-] credits, and the price is so high that not many ordinary people can afford it, so most of the stores are in the hands of the superhuman team.

Xiang Nanchuan took a fancy to a [-]-square-meter store, which was located in the center of the commercial street, but the location was a bit awkward, because there was a grocery store opposite, and if Xiang Nanchuan opened the supermarket here, he would have to compete with the grocery store for customers.

All the shops in a better location on this street have been sold, but this one has not been sold yet. According to the old man, the owner of this shop died unexpectedly when he was out on a mission. With a little compensation, I couldn't survive at the base, so I had to sell the store. Since the family's price was too high, no one has been found to take it over.

"Can you get in touch with that family?"

The old man approached furtively, and whispered, "I can contact that family for you, and the price of the store can be reduced to [-] credits, but the agency fee..."

Xiang Nanchuan raised his eyelids, "Do you want two radishes?"

The old man didn't bargain any more, and agreed, "Yes!"

"Then I'll come over at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and I'll see you here then."

The old man hurriedly said: "Okay!"

After selecting the store, Xiang Nanchuan and the others returned to Area D, went to the mission hall first, spent ten first-level crystal cores, and posted the information of Mu Dong's mother on the missing person column, then went to the service center and received the certificate of the supernatural person. After the badge, Xiang Nanchuan took out another [-] catties of corn and potatoes in exchange for [-] credits.

It was getting late when we sent Nini back to her home, and they were too lazy to find a place to live, so they slept on the bus for another night.

As for the pot of orchids, Xiang Nanchuan placed them on the driver's seat of the bus. Smelling the refreshing fragrance of the flowers, everyone fell into a deep sleep. Even Xu Yuan, who was holding vigil with an energy drink, felt sleepy.

After breakfast the next morning, seeing that it was still early, they went to District C and rented a room with two bedrooms and one living room near the business district. It took a thousand.

Fortunately, the transaction with that family was very smooth, and the other party did not raise the price temporarily. Xiang Nanchuan spent [-] credits to buy a [-]-square-meter store, went to the service center to handle the property transfer procedures of the store, and returned to Nanchuan. As soon as I stepped into the store, I heard a "ding--".

System: "The address of the Lucky General Store has been detected. May I ask the store manager if he wants to open a second store?"

Xiang Nanchuan heaved a sigh of relief, the second store was finally not the embarrassing name of "Fruit Boy Convenience Store", he replied: "Yes!"
