My Days Running a Supermarket in the Apocalypse

Chapter 174 Snowstorm Base

Upon hearing this, Sun Qinming finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He excitedly located the Snow Base on the map and once again expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Shan Nai.

Cat Boss is indeed the savior of the apocalyptic survivors!

*

With the blizzard continuing throughout the week, Shan Nai stayed in the supermarket watching dramas and playing games. With the help of wireless broadcasting and the small sales station, the problem of attracting customers was no longer a problem.

Even in bad weather, customers still come to shop every day using the supermarket's dedicated transportation.

Now that a base has taken the initiative to contact her, Yamana might as well take this opportunity to go out and do a collection mission.

Gu Lianyi had invited her to come along a couple of days ago, saying that it would be good to have company when going out together.

Shannai thought it made sense, so she agreed.

The next morning, Gu Lianyi was waiting at the supermarket on time.

She often comes to visit Shan Nai when she has free time; they eat together, watch movies, and chat.

Sometimes Lu Ya would come, but she was too introverted and shy. Most of the time, she would sit quietly to the side and watch Gu Lianyi and Shan Nai play around, which made her feel very content.

Today, Shan Nai wore a lotus root-colored dress with a fluffy coat, and her long, milky orange hair was casually tied into two loose braids. She also wore a hat, scarf, and gloves.

Good morning... Have you had breakfast yet?

Shan Nai walked briskly into the supermarket lobby and saw Gu Lianyi admiring the flowers.

Gu Lianyi lowered her eyes, smiled, and shook her head. "No, I'm waiting for you, my little lazy cat, to come along."

"Huh? You didn't know that the early bird catches the worm! Come on, let's eat first. Would you mind coming with me to the Snowstorm Base later?"

Yamana reached out and rubbed her ear, smiled sweetly, and winked at her.

Gu Lianyi naturally wouldn't mind. They had originally planned to go out together, and she was willing to go anywhere or do anything as long as she was with Shan Nai.

After having breakfast together, the two took Yamana's private flying car to the Snow Base.

Most of the time, the system accompanied Shan Nai, with occasional friends joining in, making the journey not too boring.

The snow and wind base wasn't too far away, and the car was surprisingly fast; we arrived at our destination in about ten minutes.

Sun Qinming had already solemnly explained the story of Boss Cat to all members of the base, from the oldest to the youngest.

He repeatedly warned them to respect Yamanaka and not to offend her!

So as soon as Shan Nai stepped into the base, a group of people came out to greet her warmly, holding umbrellas for her and leading the way.

Despite the heavy snow, the road at Shannai's feet was kept relatively clean and tidy, which made her feel more favorably toward the people at the snow base.

Sun Qinming also stood anxiously at the entrance of the assembly hall early in the morning.

When he saw Yamana approaching, he couldn't help but go forward to greet her.

"Welcome, Mr. Cat!!"

With his impassioned words, the crowd in the assembly hall also became excited, crowding to the door and windows to watch.

"Welcome, Mr. Cat!"

As soon as Shan Nai reached the door, the people inside burst into enthusiastic applause and cheers.

"Thank you... No need to be so polite. It's so cold outside, let's go inside and talk." Shan Nai smiled politely and waved to Sun Qinming.

Gu Lianyi didn't come over, fearing it would affect Shan Nai's work, so she offered to wait for her in the car.

The entire room was filled with countless eyes fixed on Shan Nai.

Petite, delicate, cute, and beautiful, Shan Nai, like a forest elf, calmed everyone down.

Yama-nai sensed an awkward atmosphere. Her little ears trembled slightly, and she didn't dare to move her tail much. She licked her cherry lips and coughed a few times.

"Don't be too reserved, everyone. I'm just a supermarket owner. I'll be a regular customer and we'll see each other often."

“That’s right, Boss Cat is right!” Sun Qinming chimed in.

"Uncle Ming, but you're wrong. This pretty lady isn't scary at all; on the contrary, she's very gentle."

Near the front of the crowd, a childish voice, about five or six years old, rang out. She blinked her big eyes and stared at Shan Nai, her eyes practically sparkling with excitement.

"Ah...? Ha, ha..." Sun Qinming grinned, rubbing his hands awkwardly. "Xiao Wei is right, Uncle Ming exaggerated, hahaha~"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Sun Qinming glanced at Shan Nai awkwardly, feeling truly embarrassed!

Can we really do this without warning them beforehand? What if some idiot really messes with the cat owner and then leaves in a huff?

He didn't really know the Cat Boss. The Cat Boss was rumored to be a mysterious cultivator who never had a good ending for anyone who was unreasonable or greedy in the supermarket. With such a strong destructive force, how could it not be scary?

Fortunately, the cat owner is a principled person. He shopped honestly and there were no problems!

After chatting casually with Sun Qinming for a few minutes, Shan Nai started the system to scan for the best deployment point.

The scan revealed that this bright and spacious meeting room is located right in the center of the entire resort.

All of these operations were routine for Yamana; she could handle them with her eyes closed.

The entire deployment process was completed quickly.

Shan Nai patiently explained to Sun Qinming how to become a member and order goods online.

The snow and ice base had made preparations, and not all of the large crowd rushed forward at once.

Instead, members queue in batches to register for memberships and make purchases.

When Sun Qinming was redistributing his residence, he stumbled upon the crystal core that Sun Kang had hidden.

Unexpectedly, Sun Kang, despite possessing the ability to store storage space, also secretly hid some of the crystal cores!

Sun Qinming planned to use these crystal cores to purchase necessary supplies to set up a decent canteen and provide public utilities.

Buying food for every meal is too extravagant. It's better to buy vegetables and grains at the supermarket and cook for yourself to save points!

He even planned to buy some seeds once the winter season was over...

Points must be used wisely.

The level of zombies and monsters will increase, and even if ordinary people cooperate, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will get hurt. Moreover, crystal cores will become even more difficult to obtain in the future.

He had seen too many people ganging up on a single zombie, exhausting all their strength to finally manage to attack it effectively, only to fail to kill it with a single blow.

And what about zombies? All it takes is to catch one and take a bite, and the battle is over.

Real life isn't a game; it's not like the imagined scenario of rubbing leeks in one fell swoop.

When facing terrifying zombies, speed, strength, and mindset are all factors that need to be considered.

Ordinary people don't even have a margin for error.

If you get bitten and scratched, you're dead.

If you are an ordinary person, even a level one zombie cannot be easily dealt with.

Even if the headshot problem is solved, the crystal core doesn't have to fall off! This is also a headache.

Therefore, when Sun Qinming agreed to take over the snow and ice base, he had already held a meeting with everyone that lasted half a day.

Previously, he just wanted to break free from Sun Kang's control and was just coasting along.

Now that Lucky Supermarket exists, he has new dreams and goals. He wants to fight his way through the apocalypse and lead everyone to survive!

The crystals used to purchase public supplies are just enough to apply for a flying bus.

The existence of flying buses makes everyone even happier and more excited.

While it's impossible for everyone to shop every day, who wouldn't applaud the availability of transportation when needed?

Shannai quickly settled the matters at the Snow Base, and before his departure, everyone came out to see him off.

"Goodbye, members of Lucky Supermarket." Shanna waved to everyone.

In just over ten minutes, the cleared path was covered again by snow.

Shannai was standing under the heavy snow, yet not a single snowflake had landed on her.

A cold wind swept by, and the loose snow on the ground rose with the wind, blurring everyone's vision.

After the wind passed, Shan Nai had disappeared.

"Base Commander! Boss Cat... he really is a celestial being..."
