: 058 Safe Store (Second)
The security store is in a large shopping mall near the villa complex. Before the end of the world, the entire mall had been built, and some merchants had already settled in, but the shops had not been renovated, and the mall had not officially opened.
After the top military officials designated it as a safe area, they decided to open a safe store in this mall to supply the survivors with their daily needs. So early this morning, the military specially dispatched teams to collect materials from various places. Some of the materials brought back were stored in secure warehouses, and the other part was sold in secure stores.
After all, it was the first day. The materials brought back by the team that went out were not too many, and the variety of goods in the security store was also pitiful, which was completely incomparable with the supermarkets before the end of the apocalypse.
Fang Yuxin's family quickly found a safe store. The store is on the first floor. Although the store is not small, only two-thirds of the area is neatly filled with shelves and containers, and the remaining one-third is dedicated to empty out.
This arrangement is not because there are not enough containers or goods, but to prevent survivors from stealing or looting goods. The shelves are densely placed, with a dazzling array of goods on them. In front of the shelves is a row of half-person-high containers. The container is inlaid with transparent glass, so that the goods inside can be seen, and at the same time, it also blocks the footsteps of the survivors.
On both sides of this row of containers, soldiers with live ammunition stood guard to prevent survivors from making trouble. When the survivors come in to buy goods, they can only stand in front of the container. There are several printed brochures on the container, which list the types and prices of the goods in detail. goods will do.
This kind of shopping method is relatively primitive, but the quantity of goods is so much that the supply is in short supply. Some survivors do not have credit points or crystal cores, so it is inevitable that they will not cause trouble. This arrangement is also to ensure the safety of these commodities as much as possible under the existing conditions.
Except for this safe store, other shops are still empty, but I also know that as there are more and more survivors in the safe zone, the number and types of shops will definitely be enriched.
When Fang Yuxin and others entered. I saw the lights in the shop were still on. There are five survivors picking merchandise. They walked in quickly and glanced first at the shelves and containers. The shelves are placed vertically, and the products above are not clearly visible. On the contrary, in the container, convenient food such as instant lunches, instant noodles, and instant noodles are clearly placed.
Fang Yuxin took the booklet. Check it out with family. The products on the brochure are not too small, and most of them can be preserved. Except for the convenience box lunch. There are also bottled water, salt, rice, vegetable oil, candy, cigarettes, all kinds of canned food, as well as some vacuum-packed marinated products, cooked food, in addition to some common vegetables such as potatoes and cabbage.
only. Many of the foods that were common and even eaten before the end of the world are now at a price that can make many survivors discouraged. In addition, there are restrictions on the purchase of goods in the store. Even if you have more credit points, you can't buy more. Do this. Just to prevent someone from maliciously hoarding goods.
In addition to food and water, the security store also has a supply of weapons. However, all the weapons were not displayed, only listed in detail in the booklet. Survivors can choose to buy if they need it. Among the weapons listed, there are not only various military knives, military thorns, but also pistols and rifles, as well as different types of bullets. However, the price of these weapons is also very high.
Although there are only pistols and rifles, there are no more powerful guns, but the military does this, it can be regarded as a concession. You must know that before the end of the world, it is impossible for ordinary people to own guns. In fact, the military did this after careful consideration.
Most of the survivors are ordinary people. Even if there are people with abilities, now that the end of the world has just begun, they haven't come to rush to familiarize themselves with the abilities in their bodies, and their attack power is limited. But the number of zombies is huge. To kill the zombies and save more survivors requires a lot of manpower.
The number of soldiers is limited, and the remaining survivors must naturally become combat power. Using cold weapons to deal with zombies requires too much of the user. Unless you have some skills, ordinary people can't kill zombies even with cold weapons. But firearms are different. With a little training, you can shoot remotely, which is really a weapon.
However, the military is also worried that the survivors will not be able to control the guns after they get them, and even cause more chaos. Therefore, not only are guns expensive, but the quantity is also limited, and bullets are strictly controlled. Without bullets, even if the survivor has a gun in his hand, it is just a more delicate toy.
Fang Yuxin finished reading the brochure, but did not intend to buy any products. Their skills are okay, they awakened their abilities and figured out some skills. The more skilled these skills are, the more powerful they can be. These pistols and rifles, which can only rely on bullets to exert their power, naturally become tasteless.
What they want more are submachine guns, machine guns, and even rocket launchers, but they also know that unless the situation reaches a more critical level, the military cannot let these powerful weapons flow out and fall into the hands of ordinary survivors.
Besides her, others also read the booklet, including Bai Qianqian. However, he was very sensible. After reading it at a glance, he did not propose to buy food. Instead, he carefully put the booklet back on the container.
The female shopping guide in uniform waited quietly and did not deliberately sell it. Seeing that they had no intention of buying something, she just smiled and did not speak. At present, the goods in the security store are still in short supply. I also know that when there are more survivors in the future, the goods will become more in short supply, and there is no need to worry about the situation that they will not be sold. Naturally, she doesn't have to deliberately promote it.
On the other hand, the other five survivors looked at the brochure in their hands with bitterness and hatred, as if they were in a dilemma about what to buy. Fang Yuxin and the others were about to leave when they heard one of them hesitantly ask, "Why is it so expensive, can't it be cheaper?"
As soon as he spoke, others also agreed: "Yeah, it's too expensive, let's be cheaper."
Some people also said: "You can make it cheaper, and I will buy a few more."
The pretty shopping guide said politely, "Sorry, the price is set above, so there's no way it can be cheap." After seeing the ugly faces of the five survivors, she explained, "The goods here are all military. Risking to find it elsewhere, the price is very high, and the price is very reasonable. When there are more survivors in the future, the price may increase. "
As soon as they heard that the price would go up in the future, the faces of the five people suddenly became more ugly. After that, someone gritted his teeth and said, "I bought it!" After that, he took out his ID card, pointed to the goods in the brochure, and said, "I want this, this, and this."
After hesitating for a while, the other four also decided to buy it. Fang Yuxin paid special attention to it. The five people bought mainly guns and food. Guns were expensive, and they probably didn't have much credit on them, so they only bought a cheap pistol and some bullets.
Fang Yuxin and the others turned around and walked out. As soon as they walked out of the door, they saw a big truck with green leather coming over and stopped right at the door. As soon as the car stopped and the door opened, soldiers with live ammunition jumped out of the car and stood beside the car with a look of alertness. One of them was just facing them, and the gaze was very piercing.
Seeing that Fang Yuxin was still holding a child in his hand, these people did not make any drastic actions, but they still looked alert.
His ferocious attitude made the Fang family feel a little resentful. However, these people were all armed with submachine guns, and confronting them was like hitting a stone with an egg, and the Fang family was ready to leave. But at this moment, another truck came from behind, and a person jumped out of the car and walked over quickly: "Xinxin!"
This person is Qiu Yiming!
As soon as he shouted, the face of the person who just spoke changed. He looked nervously at Qiu Yiming and asked worriedly, "Boss, do you know them?"
Qiu Yiming glared at him angrily, pointed at Fang Yuxin and said to him, "See clearly! That's your sister-in-law! Don't be big or small in the future, we are soldiers, not bandits!"
After he finished speaking, he walked quickly to Fang Yuxin, and then greeted Fang Yuyang, Fang Jintang and Qu Qianhe: "Uncle and aunt, Yuyang, why are you here? Are you going to buy something?" It is known that the Fang family bought a lot of supplies before the end of the world, where do they need to buy them in this safe store.
Thinking of the batch of supplies from the Fang family, he frowned slightly. Before the end of the world, when he learned that the Fang family had purchased a large amount of materials, he started to check, and also knew that the Fang family had put most of the materials in several large warehouses. It's a pity that those warehouses have been occupied by zombies after the end of the world, but it is not easy to take them out.
As for the remaining supplies... He believed that the Fang family should still have a lot of supplies, and they were probably hidden in the basement of the villa. It's just because of his relationship with Fang Yuxin, it's not easy to think about these supplies.
Speaking of which, he and Fang Yuxin were supposed to get married on this year's National Day, but unfortunately, when the end of the world came, the wedding could only be postponed. What's more, there is Bai Qianqian...
Looking at Bai Qianqian being held by Fang Yuxin, Qiu Yiming's eyes instantly became a little darker, and a dark tide surged.
Bai Qianqian sensed Qiu Yiming's hostility in an instant, he glanced at Qiu Yiming, then moved his footsteps, and hid behind Fang Yuxin, only showing half of his body, and said 'grievously': "Mama, they have guns, I'm afraid ."
Qiu Yiming's face turned black when he heard the words, and at the same time, the face of the person he had been annoyed with before also changed, and he looked at Fang Yuxin with a playful look - he only learned today that this is what his boss likes!
Just then, the car door opened again, and an enchanting woman stepped out. The slender high heels stepped on the ground and made a soft "cluck" sound, she swayed to Qiu Yiming's side, curled her flaming red lips, and said playfully: "Captain, let's wait until these supplies are arranged to catch up with the old days. My elder sister has always been reasonable, so I won't be angry with you." (To be continued)
