Wasteland Farming, Manual for Raising Human Cubs

Chapter 202 Cake
A cake shop stands alone at the corner of the intersection, with exquisite birthday cake models displayed in the protruding curved window.

Two eager figures, one big and one small, were reflected on the glass window. Behind them, there were four furtive figures standing.

When Zhao Xiaoxiu turned around, she saw Grandma Meng, Xiwa and the other two smiling at her and saying in unison, "Birthday cake!"

Who doesn’t eat cake on their birthday?

Meng Er and Xiwa cast coquettish glances at Zhao Xiaoxiu, suggesting that she go buy a birthday cake so they could have a bite too.

Zhao Xiaoxiu felt like laughing, and also felt like kicking someone.

She slid down from Zhao Gang's arms, looked up and asked, "Dad, can I buy a cake today?"

Her big eyes flickered and blinked, and no one could bear to refuse her.

Zhao Gang nodded and handed the points card directly to her, meaning that she could choose whatever she wanted.

"Dad, you are the most handsome man in the world!" The cub said to him seriously, holding her little face. This was her admiration from the bottom of her heart.

Zhao Gang rubbed her little head, took the cub's hand, and strode into the cake shop.

Grandma Meng and the other three immediately came to the glass window and looked at them with a smile.

The employees in the store had noticed this group of sneaky people a long time ago. Now they saw that Grandma Meng and her gang were about to stick to the window, blocking other passers-by from seeing the displayed cakes. They were about to go out to drive them away when the store door rang and a father and daughter pushed the door open and walked in.

The man is tall, with a stern face and a strong aura.

The girl wore a garland on her head. She was white, chubby and cute. She looked left and right with her bright round eyes, her face full of anticipation.

The father and daughter were dressed simply but neatly, and their eyes were straight. They seemed to be able to afford the expensive cake?
The clerk wasn't sure, but smiled and asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Zhao Xiaoxiu pointed at the largest ten-inch fruit cake in the window and asked politely, "Auntie, how many points are there for this birthday cake?"

The clerk curled his lips and called her auntie. Does she look old?

The smile suddenly faltered, and she reluctantly said, "This is expensive. You can take a look at the cheapest four-inch cake."

Zhao Xiaoxiu immediately detected the clerk's impatient tone, but didn't want to let it affect her good mood today.

She asked again, "How expensive is it? A hundred thousand points wouldn't be enough?"

One hundred thousand points?

The clerk looked at her in surprise. Did she hear it right? Did this kid know how much 100,000 points were? Could she calculate one, two, three, four, five clearly?
Zhao Xiaoxiu really wanted to remind the clerk that her inner thoughts were all shown on her face.

The clerk explained: "This fruit cake is made with evolved fruits produced in the biological company's specialized orchards, and the flour used is also evolved wheat produced in the biological company's specialized plantations. The annual output is extremely low, so the price is also very expensive."

She was about to continue explaining that this cake required about ten kilograms of flour to make the base, but Zhao Gang was tired of listening and interrupted her, asking in a deep voice:

"how much is it?"

The clerk suddenly got stuck, turned his head sharply, and answered honestly: "This ten-inch fruit cake costs 8,800 points."

Zhao Xiaoxiu shrugged helplessly, walked to the counter, stood on tiptoe, put her points card on it, and said to the cashier inside:
"I'd like a ten-inch fruit cake, please."

The cashier looked over the counter to see what the customer looked like. Seeing that it was a little girl who was not even as tall as the counter, she ignored her and looked at Zhao Gang behind her. "Are you sure, sir?" The cashier confirmed again. She didn't want it to be a child's joke.

The fruit cake that cost 8,800 points has only been ordered three times since the opening, all of which were orders from the families of senior officials.

Ordinary people cannot afford such an expensive cake, nor are they willing to use the price of an evolution potion to exchange for a cake that can be eaten in a few bites.

"And this cake has to be ordered at least three days in advance because we need to prepare the ingredients in advance," the cashier said contemptuously.

Zhao Gang instantly realized that his cub was unhappy.

If the cub is unhappy, he is unhappy.

If he is not happy, no one can be happy!
"You have enough materials in your store, don't lie to me." Zhao Gang's aura suddenly turned cold.

He picked up Zhao Xiaoxiu, who was unhappy because she was ignored, and said to the clerk in shock, "We will come back in two hours to get the cake. If you can't make it, I will destroy your store and make it myself."

Although it was clearly a threat, it came out of his mouth as naturally as eating and drinking, and the clerk had no doubt at all that he meant what he said.

Since the store opened, no one has dared to say they want to smash their store.

Because everyone knows that this is a special franchise store that is a cooperation between the biological company and the official. Smashing the store is equivalent to going against the biological company and the official. Even the senior military officers of the base dare not say such words to the store clerks.

But Zhao Gang said it, and immediately the cashier noticed that his body became strange.

He took the points card, swiped it to earn 8800 points, handed the card back to Zhao Xiaoxiu with both hands, then took out the registration card and recorded the customer's name and contact information.

"Zhao Gang, Zhao Xiaoxiu." Zhao Gang dictated, and the clerk's hands uncontrollably registered on the card.

He was fully conscious and knew what he was doing, but he had no control over his body at all. It was as if his soul had left his body, and he had a strange "God's perspective".

When he realized this, the cashier was filled with panic about the unknown. He wanted to shout out to let the clerk next to him notice his abnormality, but it was of no use.

He watched himself open his mouth and politely said to the father and daughter: "The cake will be ready in two hours. I will contact you to pick it up. The waiting time is quite long. You two can go out for a walk first."

This action stunned the clerk next to her, because she had never seen a cashier, who was a close friend, serve customers so enthusiastically.

"Apologize to my Xiaoxiu, both of you." Zhao Gang pointed at the stunned shop assistants next to them and asked them both to apologize to their own children.

As a result, the clerk also experienced the cashier's terrifying third-person perspective.

They came to the father and daughter together, apologized to Zhao Xiaoxiu very apologetically, and hoped that she could forgive their inconsiderate service.

Zhao Xiaoxiu's bad mood finally eased. She didn't plan to care about it anymore and said to the two of them:
"I accept your apology, but I hope you can give equal attention to every guest who comes in next time."

The moment the words fell, the two shop assistants immediately felt as if their souls had returned to their bodies. They looked at each other in shock, and were surprised that the other person felt the same way as themselves.

The shop door rang and the father and daughter left.

The cashier looked at the registration card in his hand and felt that the words on the card looked familiar.

The clerk came over to take a look, and she also felt that it looked very familiar. She felt like she had seen this name somewhere before. Wait, what was the name of the lord of Zone B who was number one on the black market bounty list?
