“Which family are you from, girl?”
Cao Huibao’s hair was in a complete mess. In the chaos, someone even kicked her, but she didn’t know who kicked her.
“My grandfather’s Cao Qingcai, you must be Grandpa Wang. When I was young, you always said that my braids fell off! You were very annoying!” Cao Huibao was very pompous when she was little. She wouldn’t stop playing with her two braids after they were done.
Meanwhile, Grandpa Wang Er had the habit of strolling around with his thermos flask over ten years ago. The most immoral thing he had done was to lie to Cao Huibao that her braids had fallen off. Cao Huibao was so scared that she cried out loud when she really thought that her braids had fallen off. She looked for them high and low, and many people laughed at her back then.
Cao Huibao was a vengeful person. Although her family had moved away when she was little and she had forgotten many things, she still remembered this deep in her heart. She didn’t expect to run into Grandpa Wang Er as soon as she arrived.
Grandpa Wang Er finally remembered. He rubbed his nose and looked at Cao Huibao in amusement. She really looked like her father, so he quickly let her out.
Cao Huibao happily gave Tang Susu and the rest an “OK” gesture.
“Grandpa Wang, these are my friends. Can you let them out first? They want to do business and buy some preserved products.”
Other than the famous pickles, there were two large factories that produced dried products. They were all processing agricultural products such as preserved fruits, dried bamboo shoots, mushrooms, fungus, and dates. There were so many varieties that people could easily become envious.
Most of the pickles were made by the families here. There would be people who would go to collect them. There were also a few families who made pickles like chili cowpeas, sweet garlic, turnips, pickled cucumbers, Korean kimchi… The factory workers would then properly package and sell the products to major supermarkets.
In the apocalypse, these side dishes were not as popular as those nutritious foods. However, pickled vegetables were rare and could be preserved for long. They were also delicious and could replenish the salt that the human body needed every day. Many people came to buy them.
The reason Shichang City was so coveted was not only because it had many food factories and a wide variety of food, but also because many things here could be preserved for a long time for long-term use. It allowed people to be able to plan for the future.
However, Grandpa Wang Er felt that Cao Huibao had little street smart compared to when she was little. Perhaps she had been fooled by them.
Especially since these people looked quite extraordinary. They could have Cao Huibao under their thumb.
Just as he was about to find an excuse, Tang Susu said, “We have a lot of medical supplies here that we can trade with you for supplies. You need medical supplies, don’t you?”
Grandpa Wang Er’s narrowed his eyes. Medical supplies… It was something they were very lacking!
The weak and sick in their village, as well as the elderly who had stayed behind, all of them had some sort of sickness like high blood pressure and high cholesterol. They all needed to take medicine long term.
Even Grandpa Wang Er himself had diabetes. If he didn’t have enough insulin, his whole body would collapse!
“Wait here, I’ll go ask the rest!” He then left with Cao Huibao for a long time.
Tang Susu was a little worried. The main thing was that Cao Huibao was not someone who could keep her mouth shut. They brought nothing with them on their way there. She was worried that they could easily get something out of her.
To be honest, she simply wanted to conduct the business herself.
She had a lot of unused supplies and countless medicines. Although they could be kept in her inventory for a long time, if she took them out, they would definitely look at the shelf life.
Moreover, because it was medical supplies, no one would dare to use them if they were passed the expiry date.
Her family didn’t need most of the medicine… It would be a pity if they didn’t put them to good use.
Chuanji County had an excellent reputation. Duan Hongyu wasn’t the only one who had heard about it. The communicator also stated that over 60% of them were lonely old people. They weren’t unreasonable and followed simple customs. Tang Susu was willing to work with them for mutual benefit.
“System, help me investigate the surroundings. I want to know their men’s distribution, the terrain, and what they’re discussing.”
Ever since 008 was caught by Shen Zhiting, it had been listless. After a while, it suddenly raised its voice in disbelief.
‘Host, 1 got lost!’
Tang Susu was speechless.
‘This place is like an underground maze with all kinds of signal jammers.’
Tang Susu immediately lowered her head and operated the communication device on her wrist.. “But this thing is fine, though?”
