While others are struggling to survive and slaying zombies in the apocalypse, I'm hoarding supp

Luo Ning felt she had asked a really stupid question; she had really been living a comfortable life for too long.

Forgetting anyone in the apocalypse is not easy.

"How would you like to exchange these things?"

Luo Ning looked down at the various knives on her stall; with some modifications, these things could be just as good as guns.

She had her eye on these things and wanted to take them with her.

"A bow, crossbow, broadsword, and longsword can be exchanged for a 500ml bottle of water. If you need the rest, Boss Luo, feel free to add some salt and sugar. No matter how much you exchange, I'll give you a dagger. These were collected by my father before the apocalypse; they're very sharp."

The girl excitedly introduced Luo Ning.

She's had these things here for a long time, and no one has ever asked about them.

Although these items have been sharpened, they have not been enhanced by metal-type ability users.

She's completely helpless against zombies, but if she had a metal-type ability user in her family, she wouldn't be setting up a stall here.

Luo Ning picked up a dagger and tested it; it was indeed very sharp, something that would have been a collector's item before the apocalypse.

It's worth only a bottle of mineral water now.

"Okay, I'll take them all."

Luo Ning readily agreed.

The little girl was stunned. She clutched the hem of her clothes for a long time before hesitantly speaking, "Boss Luo, these haven't been enhanced by metal-type abilities, so they can't hurt the zombies outside at all. If you really want one, you can just get another one. I'll also give you a small dagger."

The little girl thought that Luo Ning would exchange it back for collection purposes, just like her father's collection before the apocalypse.

She never even considered how Luo Ning could be used. Boss Luo was her idol, and she couldn't lie to her idol and exchange him for a bunch of useless scrap metal.

"No need, I want them all, I'll trade them at your price."

Luo Ning wouldn't haggle with a little girl; she didn't need the water, salt, or sugar.

The little girl looked at Luo Ning in disbelief, then realized that Luo Ning was so powerful that these things were useless to them. Luo Ning could definitely find a metal-type ability user to enhance his abilities.

However, she still didn't understand that even if these things were enhanced, they were still not as useful as a gun.

What did Boss Luo take it for?

In the end, the little girl and Luo Ning exchanged 3.5 liters of water, 500 grams of salt, and 500 grams of sugar.

Luo Ning always replaced them for her at the highest price.

The little girl was so excited that her eyes filled with tears. Luo Ning hadn't experienced such a scene in a long time and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Finally, he slipped a piece of chocolate into the little girl's hand, then pulled Xiao Jie away.

Xiao Jie followed behind her, letting her pull him along.

They say harsh things, but their actions tell a different story.

The chocolate she gave the little girl was as big as his palm and worth more than those bottles of water.

Luo Ning only slowed down when the little girl was out of sight.

This place is indeed different from the Red Maple Base. Although the people here may look pitiful, they don't steal or rob.

You should know that although the people at the Red Maple Base in the previous life were also poor and pitiful, they were mostly all sorts of shady characters.

If you dare to casually take out a piece of chocolate, it will be snatched away before you even get it in your mouth.

If you were even slightly soft-hearted, you wouldn't be able to move an inch on the road.

Luo Ning has experienced many instances of people kneeling in front of him, begging him to save them.

So in her past life, she didn't like shopping at all, nor did she like talking to those people.

It was only gradually that she developed her solitary, cold, and ruthless nature.

"Have you made up your mind?"

Xiao Jie led her slowly, and seeing her deep in thought, he knew she had made her decision.

He was standing outside and overheard her conversation with Old Fu, since the two of them hadn't closed the door at all.

Luo Ning glanced at him. "More or less, but I can't tell Old Man Fu yet." She needed to find a reason that she had to do it.

Otherwise, Old Man Fu will definitely come back to take advantage of me in the future.

As the group strolled around, they ran into Fu Xing and his friends, along with the three members of 123.

The area they were in was much wider than the alleyway they had just left; it resembled a small commercial district.

There were many shops around, selling crystal cores of much higher quality than the ones they had just passed, as well as weapons and food. She even saw a beverage shop.

There was a long queue there, all for ice cream and cold drinks.

Liang Xiao and Shen Yi squeezed out of the crowd.

Holding two ice cream cones in each hand, they came out and the voices of the store clerks could be heard.

"Today's limited supply is over, so come early tomorrow!"

The people in line complained, "Why is it over already? We've been queuing for so long under this scorching sun, and we haven't even gotten a single piece of ice."

"Yes, boss, if you drive a little longer, I'm willing to raise the price."

"I'm willing too. I don't want drinks or ice cream, but I'll sell you some ice cubes."

The shop assistant waved his hand helplessly and said loudly, "It's not that we don't want to open, it's just that we have a limited supply of raw materials. We plan to reduce the number of openings by another fifty tomorrow, so everyone hurry up!"

The shop assistant closed the door after speaking, and Luo Ning watched thoughtfully.

She suddenly realized that she had been narrowing her path before, and that there was nothing wrong with being in the base.

Why did she work so hard delivering food before?

Looking over there, there was another mala tang (spicy hot pot) restaurant, and she also saw Ji Zhoubai.

No wonder she said Ji Zhoubai hadn't been urging her to open the door lately; it turns out he'd found a replacement.

Liang Xiao and Shen Yi walked up to the three little ones and handed them the ice cream they were holding.

He and Liang Xiao each ate the rest, one bite at a time.

As for the others, each of them was holding a bottle of water.

"Hey, boss." Liang Xiao smiled and waved to Luo Ning.

Fu Xing and the others walked over.

Luo Ning looked at the three little ones being held.

Leaving aside 123 and 125, even 124 was held in Liang Xiao's arms.

124 is now an adult Alaskan Malamute. Its front paws are on Liang Xiao's shoulders, and Liang Xiao is supporting its rear end. The dog's head is stretched towards Shen Yi, who is feeding it ice cream.

123 was in Fu Xing's arms, 125 was in Zhou Jibai's arms, and Cheng Rang was feeding 125 ice cream.

Luo Ning's face darkened. "What are you doing?"

Liang Xiao grinned foolishly, "Eating ice cream, buddy? You're a step too late, otherwise I would have grabbed one for you."

Cheng Rang patted 125's head, "Are you stupid? She has so many ice creams at home, why would she need to steal them?"

Liang Xiao rubbed 124's head and said, "Oh yeah, I forgot, the boss has a lot of ice cream."

Those around them, upon hearing Liang Xiao's words, all turned to look at Luo Ning.

Luo Ning was speechless. She looked at Liang Xiao and asked, "Why are you holding it like that? It's so big, and its fur is so thick. Isn't it hot to hold it?"

124 let out a sob and buried her head in Liang Xiao's shoulder.

123 licked the ice cream and said, "Host, it's not that we asked them to hug us, it's that they wanted to hug us themselves."

"Yeah, boss, it has nothing to do with them, we just wanted to hug them. They're 124 fluffy and so comfortable to hug."

Liang Xiao freed one hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, which felt both strange and annoying.
