Plane Supermarket

According to Cao’er’s Niang and her daughter description, Ye Zhou’s current seat should be three to five days away from the edge of the forest.

There are no dirt roads for people to walk in the woods, and they are all trampled by wild animals in the past. When there were wild animals and wild vegetables in the woods, people entered the forest one after another.

After all, the bark is almost gone, and the woods can no longer provide humans with anything.

And even if you go deeper, not to mention whether they can survive the mouth of the beast, it may even be a problem to find the direction.

Moreover, the physical strength of the refugees could not support them to continue walking.

Although this method of exhausting the pond and fishing has had a huge blow to the forest ecology, it also provides a little advantage, that is, even if you enter the forest without a weapon, you will not face the danger of life from wild animals.

This also provided Ye Zhou with a layer of protection.

Without Cao’er Niang and her daughter to lead the way, Ye Zhou didn’t know which direction to leave the woods.

Although he has a compass, he doesn’t know which side the exit is.

The compass has only one role here, so that he doesn’t have to circle around in situ.

If Ye Zhou wanted to go out, he could only use the most stupid way, go all the way to the end, turn back if there is no way, and continue walking in another direction, which is not only dangerous, but also very time-consuming.

Now what he worries about is how to recruit the manpower, and when he recruits the manpower, he will start to worry about soliciting customers.

Although the supermarket is relatively safe in the deep mountains and old forests, there is another characteristic of the deep mountains and old forests, that is, there are few people on the road.

Those who went into the mountain at this time were either like the Cao’er and her mother, who wanted to find a place to die, or they were just planning to look for food outside the woods, but lost their way.

After four days, Cao’er Niang and her daughter finally got better. They are really like grass. Even if they are in a desperate situation, even if there is no rain, they still hold the ground tightly with their weak roots and once someone give them a drop of water and a ray of sunshine, they will rejuvenate.

Anyway, Ye Zhou sighed and admired them very much.

As a modern man, he enjoys the benefits of modern industry, but what does that matter to him?

He never built a screw, never assembled a machine, he just had a good life, was born a modern person, and enjoyed the benefits brought by the great men of the past.

He also can’t afford the sense of superiority that no one else has. If he was a member of the fleeing refugees, he might be among the first people to starve to death.

Cao’er Niang and her daughter are not at ease in the supermarket. They always feel that if they are not engaged in works, they will be driven away after a long time, so they try their best to find something to do. They have to mop the floor and clean the cabinets every day. In such a big supermarket, it can really be cleaned carefully every day.

Even on the next day when it wasn’t dirty at all, they keep continue cleaning.

Ye Zhou couldn’t stop them either, and felt that it was good. They would have a sense of belonging if they had something to do, and they wouldn’t overthink too much.

“Mom, this mop is really easy to use.” Cao’er’s eyes haven’t dimmed since she entered the supermarket. She finds everything new and amazed. The first day she came, she exclaimed at the floor tiles.

“Master Immortal has immortal power, these things are nothing.” Cao’er Niang is “well-informed” and has heard the stories told by the storyteller. She pointed to the lamp and said, “That is an immortal lamp, and it burns like immortal so there is no fire or smoke.”

Cao’er Niang whispered again: “We have to be careful, Master Immortal has eyes and ears, and knows everything, so we have to be sincere!”

Now Cao’er Niang does not regard Ye Zhou as a human being, but It is a stone statue in a shrine, which must be enshrined in awe.

Ye Zhou, who happened to pass by, said, “…”

He really became a “Master Immortal”

The word ‘Master’ is more powerful than a Immortal, and it makes Ye Zhou burnt and tender.

So he pretended not to hear, and walked away quietly against the wall.

“I don’t know if there is any meat to eat tonight.” Cao’er swallowed.

What she eats now is either white steamed bun or rice, and the big white steamed buns are not yellow at all, and are whiter than the powder used by women in dramas to wipe their faces.

There is also meat, if it is not for the fact that Master Immortal does not allow them to eat too much fat, Cao’er can eat big fat three times a day.

But almost every time there is meat, there is oil and water.

“Keep your voice down!” Cao’er Niang said with a serious face, “It’s not good for Master Immortal to think that we, mother and daughter, are greedy.”

Cao’er nodded quickly, and after she had no worries about eating and drinking, she talked more and became more courageous.

Now they not only have enough food and water to drink, but also have three sets of clothes, so they don’t need to wash them by themselves!

It was Ye Zhou who showed them the laundry for the first time.

Fortunately, the washing machine used in the store is not a new high-tech product, just a few buttons, washing, spinning and drying. It was originally used for washing small things such as towels, but it can also be used for washing clothes.

“The things here are all made by the immortal’s hands with the breath of immortal’s air, the immortal can do anything!” Cao’er Niang said firmly.

Laundry is not a light and easy job. You have to hammer or rub it. The small ones are okay, but the large ones may not be cleaned in an hour, and then you have to wring them out. If there are a lot of dirty clothes at home, you can barely alive from washing the clothes.

It’s good now, there’s a something for washing, throw away the clothes, take them out, wring them out, hang them on the rack, and dry them in half a day.

Although the clothes the immortals gave them were light and thin, and it didn’t take much effort to wash them by hand, but with that effort, it’s better to wipe the shelves twice.

Because the clothes are worn by themselves, they will be dirty if they are dirty, but cleaning the shelves is doing work for the master immortal, and there is no delay even for a moment.

“If Master Immortal didn’t say that we are not allowed to work anymore when it was dark outside, I would still be able to do it.” Cao’er even felt a little regretful.

She felt that she had to work a lot, and it would be best to faint from exhaustion one day, and let the immortal watch her, so that he knows her sincerity.

Cao’er Niang nodded, she thought so too.

The Immortal doesn’t want them to kowtow, and doesn’t want them to make offerings—although they don’t have anything to offer, but he didn’t even let them work from morning to night, so they don’t feel safe in their hearts.

They are all farmers, and they have never even weaved cloth in their lives. The families who can afford looms are all well-known local wealthy families. Cloth may be used as copper coins! Sometimes it is worth more than copper plates.

As for needlework, if you can mend the patches well and the clothes you make don’t unravel, that’s considered a good craft.

So their thinking is also very simple, the emperor wants them to pay taxes, the landlords collect their rent, and the master should also ask them to work more, so that they are in line with the “master” in their hearts.

There is no fixed amount for the emperor to ask them to pay taxes. If the year is good, it will be more, and if the year is bad, it will be less.

Fortunately, their family has a small population. If there are two more people in the family, they will not be able to bear to pay the tax.

Although the landlords charged them 60% of the rent, they heard from the shopkeepers who occasionally came to the village that the rent had risen to 80% in some villages. Even if they borrowed grain and seeds from the local landlords, they still couldn’t eat enough, and the debts piled up. Even if the family is not the landlord’s slaves, it is almost the same.

As for gods and Buddhas, as long as they are sincere, they don’t believe it either.

Those peasant women who wanted to burn incense sticks in the temple had to pay for it.

Immortal Buddha does not bless the poor.

To make the wish come true, it should be fulfilled. It can be seen that the gods and Buddhas are above, and it also needs money from the world.

While Cao’er and her daughter were talking, Ye Zhou was packing up. He was going to the edge of the forest with them tomorrow morning. He specially found a big backpack and put dry food in it because self-heating food took up too much space. There are many, so what he brings are basically compressed biscuits and ham sausages, which can fill you up without taking up space.

Because he wanted to sleep outdoors, he had to bring two tents. In order to save space, he brought the most expensive and portable one in the supermarket.

To eliminate danger, he also carried pepper spray and a machete.

The machete has no scabbard, so it can only be wrapped with cloth strips to avoid hurting yourself when walking.

In the early morning of the next day, before the sun came out, Ye Zhou set off with Cao’er, mother and daughter.

Originally, it would be fine just to bring one of them, but Ye Zhou was worried if he leaves her alone and didn’t pay attention to the supermarket. It would be terrible if the person who stays alone got an electric shock and caught fire.

Now the only thing he can rely on is this supermarket.

Without this supermarket, he would really have to wait to die.

He is very self-aware, the natives lived like this in this famine era, he, a modern person with weak limbs and a normal stomach, will only be worse, at least the natives can distinguish wild vegetables and fungi, and he will burp if he eats a poisonous mushroom.

One will always be safe if they’re cautious.

They are not in a hurry and walk at a normal speed. For safety reasons, they don’t go at night. Although there are no wild animals, Caoer’s mother and daughter have different degrees of night blindness. There are pits or cliffs on the road, even if they will not die if they’re falling, they will probably break their arms and legs.

Ye Zhou didn’t have a flashlight. It’s one thing that he should not be in a hurry, but it would be bad if someone saw him with a flashlight on the road.

If the other party is a bad person, it is planting the root of disaster for yourself.

Anyway, he must not gamble, he has no capital to gamble.

After walking unhurriedly for five days, Ye Zhou finally saw the road outside the woods.

Although it was just an ordinary dirt road, Ye Zhou suddenly had a wonderful feeling that he had returned to a civilized society from primitive times.

But that’s just an instant feeling.

He did not approach rashly, but took a telescope to look over from a slightly higher hillside. There were many ragged refugees on the side of the road. They were lying or sitting on the side of the road. A nobleman passed by and they asked for some food to satisfy their hunger.

Their condition is not much better than that of Cao’er and her daughter.

They all seem to be in rage the next second.

It’s scarier than zombie movies. They are clearly alive, but they are already as stiff as corpses, and they are more terrifying than real corpses.

“Together, be careful.” Ye Zhou took out the small knife from his bag and gave one to each of Cao’er’s mother and daughter.

Cao’er held the knife, her face flushed with excitement.

She was a little scared, but she was too excited to be scared, the immortal asked her to do something!

Only men can say that they do things. Although she is not a man, in the eyes of immortals, she is no different from a man.

“If the other party has evil intentions, run if you can. Don’t hold on. If you can’t run, draw your sword and resist.” Ye Zhou said seriously, “I will watch you, but it will take time for me to arrive. You have to be careful.”

On the contrary, Cao’er Niang was not nervous: “Immortal, we mother and daughter also hang out with these people before entering the forest. We are not a wife from a rich family or a daughter from rich family, who cares about us.”

They all wore wigs, wigs and clothes are specially rolled in mud puddles.

There is no problem integrating perfectly into the refugee population.

These wigs are all real hair, and they are not cheap in modern times. In the past, most of them were exported. Now there are more people wearing wigs so Ye Zhou just bought a batch when he was stocking up. He didn’t expect it to come in handy here..

After confirming that the disguise was perfect, Ye Zhou nodded to them.

Cao’er, mother and daughter bowed their waists, walked out slowly and tremblingly.

When Cao’er and her daughter first went out, some people turned their heads to look at them, but after the glance, they turned their heads numbly.

In order to save energy, people basically closed their eyes and fell asleep without moving. They looked like corpses.

They are just living for the sake of living now, they don’t look forward to the future, and they don’t have any hope in their eyes. They just hope that they can get through today. As for where tomorrow will be, that is something that should be considered tomorrow.

Cao’er’s mother and daughter have no extra kindness to spread. They have seen too many refugees, and they themselves were one of the Buddha.

No real bodhisattva came down to save them!

Cao’er and the others didn’t move around and look around, but found a higher place to sit and pretended to be asleep.

They are all refugees, and they also stopped the carriage when the nobles passed by, knelt and kowtowed, hugged the horse’s legs and refused to let the horse go, saying they were begging, but in fact they were robbing, the women and children cried and knelt, and the men went to the carriage. Climb up and squeeze into the compartment.

They want to live, to feed themselves, and the threat of death outweighs their conscience.

So if the lucky nobles are not escorted by strong men, they will become refugees like them after being robbed.

Unlucky nobles will die fighting refugees.

So what if refugees are weak? So what if he looks like a dead person?

Ants kill elephants more often, everyone is equal in the face of survival, etiquette, justice, shame and status are all behind, and fists are the only truth.

Cao’er’s mother and daughter quickly took a good look at people. They could easily see which men were honest and which were dishonest. Such sharp eyes were cultivated on the way to flee from famine.

Generally, a man with a family is not too bad. First exclude the single person, and then look at the other family members of the family besides the man. If it is with the old lady and the little girl, that is the best.

After all, the little girl was the first to be abandoned on the way to escape from famine, then the old man, then the little boy, and finally the woman.

After spotting the person, Cao’er, mother and daughter began to move.

They first looked for a target that was a little farther away from the crowd gathering place. These men were all gathered with their families, including the old and the young. Although the whole family was dying, everyone still had breath.

Cao’er’s mother and daughter hit up a conversation with them in the name of borrowing fire.

There is no need to persuade them too much, as long as you make it clear that you can eat and live with them, they will not refuse.

After all, if someone came to deceive them now, what could they deceive?

With a handful of bones, they would not be able to eat a few ounces of meat. Hunger has already made them lose the ability to think.

If there is a piece of cake in front of them at this time, even if the person who eats the cake will die in the next moment, they will rush over.

Ye Zhou held up the telescope. His arms were already sore, but he persisted in not putting them down.

After all, once Cao’er’s mother and daughter are in danger, as an adult man, he must go to protect them.

He has a machete and wolf spray, so it shouldn’t be a big problem to take them to the woods after delaying time.

Of course, it would be best if they could take people away safely.

Even though Ye Zhou was an atheist, he had to pray to God in his heart at this time, hoping that he could attract people smoothly and not make any mistakes, otherwise… otherwise he would still not believe in God in his next life!
