I open a supermarket in the apocalypse

Xiang Nanchuan rubbed his ears, and said with a sad face: "My old man doesn't know how to talk about me now, but you don't know, he may be talking about it."

Chi Yan's comforting words twirled around his lips, and then swallowed them back. Don't look at Nanchuan with a look of disgust, his eyes are full of warmth, which makes people feel that he and his parents have a good relationship .At this time, Chi Yan was extremely grateful for the decision he made at the beginning, instead of foolishly asking Xiang Nanchuan to choose one among himself and his family.He looked straight into Xiang Nanchuan's eyes, and said seriously: "I will accompany you to complete the task, and go back to see my uncle and aunt."

Xiang Nanchuan sighed melancholy, "I'm afraid that when my father sees you, he will directly greet you with a stick." His father will definitely go mad with anger.

He could even imagine that his father would jump up angrily when he saw his single seedling come back with his boyfriend, chasing and beating him with a stick, and yelling, "Okay, don't learn, how could you imitate others?" Ji, I will kill you unfilial son!" Shan.And 彡Xi.

Chi Yan said solemnly: "Don't worry, I have practiced before, and I should be beaten a few times."

Who is worried about you!Xiang Nanchuan rolled his eyes silently, whether he can take you back is still a question, why are we talking about meeting the parents.

The base only has six hours of power consumption at night, and the power is cut off at [-] o'clock in the morning until six o'clock the next night, so after dinner, everyone seized the time to line up to take a bath, and they didn't have a chance to take a bath all the way from Xizhou. Fortunately, it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, and I can't smell sweat if I don't take a bath for a month. If I don't take a bath for a day in summer, my body will smell like rotten pickles.

Xiang Nanchuan is not bad, he sneaks back to his supermarket to take a bath from time to time, Chi Yan is not treated so well, but he is a fire-type supernatural being, he is not afraid of the cold, every day he comes back with a bucket of snow water outside, and directly pours it into the bath, Chi Yan He is a bit of a clean freak, and it is unbearable not to take a shower for a day, thanks to his love of cleanliness, after all, at this time, even a male god, if he does not take a shower for more than a month, he will become a sloppy man.

The name of Chi Yan's villa is "Small Villa", which is actually not small. It covers an area of ​​about [-] square meters. It is convenient for everyone to get the snow without having to go outside.

As for the bedrooms, in addition to the master bedroom where Chi Yan's parents used to live, and Chi Yan's bedroom, there are also eight guest bedrooms. The room is big enough to fit three beds without any problem. If you can sleep on the sofa, you would rather sleep on the sofa than on the floor. The winter in the north is so cold. There is no heating, and the ground is chilly. No matter how many quilts you put on, the sofa is narrow, but at least it keeps you warm.

The decoration of Chi Yan's bedroom is just like his impression, monotonous and simple, the tone of the whole room is cool, brown, white and gray, dark brown cabinets, white walls, gray sheets.

Xiang Nanchuan folded his arms and visited Xiachiyan with great interest. Even though the owner was away for several months, the place was full of the owner's life atmosphere, Xiang Nanchuan said, "Your room is just like a model room, so it won't Do you find it boring?"

"I don't think so." Chi Yan tore off the sheets on the bed, took out a clean gray sheet from the closet, made the bed skillfully, and then took out two quilts. The quilts were damp after being left for too long. Chi Yan dried the quilts with a torch .

Xiang Nanchuan thought to himself, it would be nice to have a boyfriend with a fire-type supernatural ability, and he would no longer need to artificially warm the bed.

Probably because the quilt was too warm, Xiang Nanchuan wanted to chat a few words, but he didn't want to fall asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

At dawn, when Xiang Nanchuan opened his eyes, the bed next door was already empty, and he didn't know when Chi Yan got up, and lay in the warm blanket. He wanted to stay in bed for a while, but thought that today is New Year's Eve. Xiang Nanchuan quickly lifted the quilt and jumped up.

Xiang Nanchuan slipped on his cotton slippers and ran downstairs, "Chi Yan, let's go out and find the storefront!"

Chi Yan came out of the kitchen with breakfast, "I will go back to Chi's house later, and I will ask Chen Chong and Qin Han to accompany you."

Xiang Nanchuan couldn't help showing a look of disappointment, "Then will you come back at night?"

Chi Yan glanced at him and said inexplicably: "This is my home, where else can I go if I don't come back?"

Xiang Nanchuan was stunned for a moment, and his mood quickly improved, "Then you can bring something home for your cousins. Forget it, I'll come." Xiang Nanchuan rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to carry things.

Chi Yan stretched out his arm and brought the man back. He embraced Xiang Nanchuan's shoulders and pushed him back on the chair, "Eat your breakfast, don't worry, I have my own arrangements."

At this time, the Chi family is also having breakfast. The place where the Chi family lives is quite simple, a small two-story western-style building. Judging from the white ash falling off the wall, the history of this building has been some years.

Chi Zhonghai, who hadn't been home for a few days, came back at this time. As the end of the new year was approaching, there were many affairs to be dealt with in the military headquarters. He stayed up for several days and only had one day to go home for the New Year.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Chi Shan quickly raised her head and said in surprise, "Dad, you are back!" Chi Shan ran up and helped Chi Zhonghai take off his thick military coat.

Chi Zhonghai has a rough appearance, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a Chinese character face, and majesty exuding between his brows. At this moment, his face is exhausted and his eyeballs are bloodshot. Chi Shan's heart suddenly twitches, "Dad, have you been up for a few days?"

Hearing his daughter's question, Chi Zhonghai felt a little hypocritical, he changed the subject, "I heard that Xiaoyan is back, why don't you see anyone else?"

Not seeing the person he expected at home, Chi Zhonghai frowned, "He didn't come home?"

Sensing the displeasure in her father's tone, Chi Shan quickly explained: "Brother Yan just arrived at the base last night. He has a lot of subordinates. He was afraid of disturbing Grandpa, so he went to the small villa. He must be back today."

Chi Tianzong sneered, "It's rare that he still remembers coming back!"

Chi Tianzong was known as the Iron Blood General in his early years, with outstanding military achievements, even though he was old, he did not retreat, but he did not work on the front line, but took command behind the scenes.Chi Tianzong has a strong temper and has always said what he said. Even Chi Zhonghai did not dare to disobey his orders. Now in this family, only Chi Yan never takes his words seriously, just like his dead father. The temperaments of the two fathers and sons were printed in the same mold.

Speaking of Chi Yan's father who died of depression, this has always been a thorn in Chi Tianzong's heart. He couldn't spit it out, and couldn't swallow it, which made Chi Tianzong still dislike Chi Yan.

Chi Shan murmured, "Grandpa, don't say that, it's already very impressive to be able to come back safely from such a far place in Xizhou." Can you stop being picky.Of course, Chi Shan didn't have the guts to say the latter.

Chi Tianzong put down the bowl and chopsticks with a sullen face, "I'm full." Huo Ran got up and went back to the room with his hands behind his back.

Chi Shan's mother took a steamed bun and put it in Chi Shan's bowl, "You're the only one who talks too much."

Chi Shan stuck out her tongue.

Chi Zhonghai pretended not to see his father's dissatisfaction. He sat down, scooped up a bowl of porridge, drank it slowly, and said, "Xiaoyan must have suffered a lot along the way. Today is New Year's Eve. He brought back How many people are there, Wanling, prepare an annual gift for them."

Xu Wanling held the right hand of the chopsticks for a moment, forced a smile and said, "They just came back from outside, so they probably don't eat much, why don't you bring them some rice noodles?"

Chi Zhonghai didn't notice the change in his wife's expression, "You can decide for yourself." Chi Zhonghai never cared about the small things at home, and didn't know how much food was left at home, so he opened his mouth to share the surplus food at home.

"There are about 30 of them." Chi Shan took her mother's arm coquettishly, "Mom, why don't you prepare more food for Brother Yan and the others, how about we make some dumplings and send them over?"

Xu Wanling nodded Chi Shan's eyebrows, and said angrily: "There are so many dumplings, it only takes half a day, and I have to cook the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, so I can't be too busy. You came up with the idea. If you want to make it yourself, I won't help you. "There used to be a nanny who took care of the old man at home, but on the day when the apocalypse broke out, the nanny went out to buy groceries and never came back, so I had to do all the housework by myself. Now that it's so chaotic outside, it's okay to invite a stranger over. It's inconvenient, not to mention that there is no extra rations at home to support others.

Regardless of the status of the Chi family in Beicheng, since the military administration of Beicheng, all materials have been handed over to the above for unified management. The Chi family only kept a small part, and all the others were handed over, including all assets under Chi Yan's name. At that time, Chi Yan is not in Beicheng, so the Chi family will distribute it on his behalf.

Chi Shan was still like a little girl who didn't know much about the world before the end of the world, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I will ask Sister Zhao to help me as well."

Xu Wanling sighed inaudibly, and recalled in her mind how much food was left at home.

Chi Zhonghai, who didn't know the situation at home at all, finished a bowl of porridge and put down the bowl, "I'll go upstairs to sleep for a while, Xiao Yan came back and woke me up."

Xu Wanling responded with a smile, "Okay."

On the other side, after Xiang Nanchuan had breakfast, he took Chen Chong and Qin Han out to find a suitable shop. Hu Man wanted to join in the fun, so he followed.

The Beicheng base has a large area and a lot of people, so the storefront of the fourth store should not be too small, at least [-] square meters.Xiang Nanchuan originally wanted to open the store on New Year's Eve, but it seems that he can't make it in time. The eighth day of the Lunar New Year also has a good meaning. It's a good start, and I hope it can make a good start.

Walk to the trading area and take a look, oh!There are so many people.

The streets and alleys are full of people who come out to buy new year's goods.

This man, it's really strange, even if he is too poor to eat, he still tries his best to live a good year.

Xiang Nanchuan became more interested in shopping, and took the three of them along the flow of people.

On the stalls on both sides of the road, there are clothes, melon seeds and candies, special delicacies from all over the country, and the scent that wafts arouses people's gluttons. Passing by Nanchuan, they grabbed a handful of melon seeds and turned their heads to ask Three people, "Do you want to eat melon seeds?"

Looking at the mental outlook of Nanchuan and the others, one could tell that they were not very hungry. The vendors greeted them warmly with smiles on their faces. I sell it here, do you want to buy some to go back to celebrate the New Year?"

Hu Mantou, the youngest of the three, shook his head like a rattle, "Don't, we're going to get mad at this stuff in Xizhou." When they were in Xizhou, there were no other entertainment activities at night, and a large group of people would often gather around Eating melon seeds by the bonfire, the melon seeds were knocked too much, and my mouth was foaming.

Think about it, there are a group of old men in the villa, and there are no women or children. Who will eat it when you buy it back.

The peddler looked at the backs of these people, curled his lips in disdain, and got angry after eating sunflower seeds, who are they kidding?

At the stall, an elderly man was handwriting Spring Festival couplets on the cut red paper. The old man's gestures were quite elegant, he must be a learned scholar, but his complexion was sallow and his clothes were a little thin.Xiang Nanchuan walked in and took a look, and saw the old man writing and scribbling in one go, the beautiful italic script was like a silver hook drawn by iron.

Slowly, more and more people watched, but not many people bought it. A pair of Spring Festival couplets would cost 5 credits, which was not worth it. It was better to buy food.Xiang Nanchuan patted his forehead, "I almost forgot to post Spring Festival couplets during the Chinese New Year. I'll buy a pair and go back."

The old man put down the brush, politely and politely, "I don't know which pair you want?"

"Just the one you just wrote."

"Okay, I'll raise another horizontal batch."

I saw the old man write the words "five grains will be plentiful" on the red paper.

After drying the ink on it, the old man carefully rolled up the couplet, took the couplet from Nanchuan, and gave the old man a first-level crystal nucleus.

"This..." The old man looked at the crystal nucleus in his hand, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Xiang Nanchuan said: "We have just arrived at the base, and we haven't had time to redeem credit points. I wonder if we can use this to pay the bill."

"That's too much." The old man didn't mean to take advantage, "Your crystal nucleus can be exchanged for ten credits."

"Then write me a couplet for the Spring Festival. I'm going to open a supermarket, and I'll post it when the time comes."

The old man picked up his pen and wrote Xiang Nanchuan a Spring Festival couplet implying a prosperous business.

Xiang Nanchuan was very satisfied. After buying the Spring Festival couplets, the few of them went shopping all the way. The business of the store was not settled yet, but there were too many things in their arms.

Hu Man complained: "The store manager..."

"Then let's go home?" Xiang Nanchuan was still in high spirits, "Go back and post couplets."

A few people returned to the villa with a lot of trophies in their hands. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Chi Yan repairing an old-fashioned tape recorder that he dug out from nowhere. He blurted out to Nanchuan, "Why are you back?"

Xiang Nanchuan thought that Chi Yan would at least stay at Chi's house until the evening before coming back, but who would have thought that Chi Yan would come back as soon as he went out.

Chi Yan said without raising his head: "Uncle just came back from the army and is still resting. I didn't bother you much, and he came back after delivering the presents."

Xiang Nanchuan didn't ask too much, "Since you came back so early, let's make New Year's Eve dinner together."

In fact, it was Chi Yan and the others who were cooking, while Xiang Nanchuan was helping, washing the vegetables and cutting a fruit platter.

Suddenly, Hu Man ran in and said that someone from the Chi family had sent something over.

Chi Yan's expression remained unchanged, "Take it." He took a few apples and handed them to Hu Man, "Let him take this back with him."

"Hey!" Hu Man replied, took the apple and left. Not long after, he came back with a bag of dumplings, which seemed to be quite a lot.

After a lively afternoon, when the tape recorder played the program of the previous year's Spring Festival Gala, the Red Flame Squad and others were sitting around the table eating the New Year's Eve dinner.

The voice of the host of the Spring Festival Gala's kindly broadcasting program brought a touch of New Year's atmosphere. In previous years, everyone lamented that the New Year did not have the atmosphere of the New Year. However, today people can't help but miss the family reunion in previous years.

There are no firecrackers and fireworks for Chinese New Year this year. After all, they are not easy to buy. Xiang Nanchuan wanted to buy some fireworks when he was shopping during the day, but unfortunately he couldn’t find any fireworks in the entire trading area.

Qin Han advised him not to worry about it, even if there are fireworks for sale, what if the zombies are woken up, if there is a zombie siege, it will be very unlucky for the Chinese New Year.

Hearing this, Xiang Nanchuan had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​setting off fireworks.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, everyone went to find activities. Hu Man invited a few mahjong friends and set up a table in the living room to play mahjong.

Nearly 12 o'clock, Mu Dong cooked the dumplings sent by Chi's family in the afternoon, and made them supper for everyone.

At the end of the gala, the leader's heavy voice appeared on the tape recorder.

"...This year, our country and even the whole world are facing an unprecedented disaster..."

Stretching to Nanchuan, there was no electricity tonight, the group of people had made an appointment not to sleep, and the decisive battle lasted until dawn, he kicked Hu Man, whose face was covered with notes, "Watch out for those who play cards all night, don't I was so fascinated by the game that I didn’t even know if someone slipped in.”

In the eyes of some big forces, their team is still invisible, but with the Chi family behind Chi Yan, maybe, the more calm the weather, the more vigilant they must be to avoid being taken advantage of.

With an unlit cigarette in his mouth, Chen Chong carefully wiped his crystal nucleus gun with a rag, "Tonight, Qin Han and I will watch the night, let them relax for a day."

"Alright then." Xiang Nanchuan shrugged.

The leader's speech continued, "... as long as we work together, we will rebuild our homeland..."

However, a few days after the end of the new year, a bad news came from the south. A medium-sized base in the south was breached by a wave of zombies.
