While crying, he made a few loud empty sounds from his stomach.

Shen Xun sucked a few times and drank the milk. It was no use to cry, I won’t give it to you!

Since he had seen him, it was not good to act as if he hadn’t seen anything. Shen Shian coughed twice and asked, “What’s wrong?”

The middle-aged man cried even more. “I’m so hungry!”

Of course he would be hungry. If Shen Shian and the child represented the highest level of diet in the library, the middle-aged man was undoubtedly the lowest. When he ran into the library, he had only brought a briefcase full of cash and gold bars. But that briefcase was thrown out. Because of his performance that day was very poor, the other survivors had ignored him. Not only that, he was afraid to participate in the cleanup operation. In total, he was only given a packet of potato chips, a packet of spicy sticks, a packet of broad beans, and a bottle of jasmine green tea. Relying on that and a protein bar he had picked up from a gap in the bookshelf, he had persisted for eight full days.

But even if he was so hungry to cry, he didn’t ask Shen Shian for food. Of course, it’s more likely that he knew that Shen Shian wouldn’t give it even if he asked.

“My Miao family, the richest around here, had painstakingly worked for half a lifetime, starting a business from scratch. I never had imagined that the final result would be me starving to death in a library.” Like a broken jar, he leaned on the bookshelf and kept crying. “If I didn’t throw the briefcase away, I would not only have money and gold bars, but also dozens of my property certificates. I could sell them and eat abalone fish congee, Australian lobster, deep sea shell king crab, roasted sheep, Buddha jumps over the wall …”

Shen Xun’s eyes brightened, but Shen Shian had to interrupt the other party, “It’s useless. I advise you to recognize the facts. After the outbreak of the virus, no amount of real estate gold bars can compare with a pack of instant noodles.”

“I have instant noodles!” The rich Miao man continued, “My start-up business is a supermarket chain. There are my supermarkets in all districts of H city. Just see how many noodles are there!” Speaking until here, he regretted. “Why on earth did I go to the city center to buy a house? I should have slept in the supermarket. Today eat noodles with braised beef flavor, tomorrow eat noodles with pickled vegetables flavor, then I will add two braised eggs and sausage in it, and it will be boiled with water, wow…”

Shen Shian’s brow twitched. However, the words of the other person moved him. “You said that you opened a supermarket chain?”

The rich Miao man was pulled out of the fantasy of instant noodles, and was slightly lost. Hearing his words, he nodded. Although his appearance was weak, his eyes were proud. “The supermarket had opened more than 30 branches in H city. Generally, it can be seen in places where the consumer groups outside the second ring road are more concentrated, like the university town, the public square, and the new Binhu district. Originally, the next step was to continue expanding to the surrounding cities. When the contract had not been negotiated, the cooperation partner had become a zombie.”

“Where is the university town?”

“Near the medical university, there are several neighborhoods around. When I took a fancy to that place, the surrounding communities had not been built yet, and I felt that a bunch of students had insufficient spending power. As a result, it was called too risky by my family. When doing business, you have to have a good eye and decisive action. If not then you will never succeed.”

Shen Shian pursed his lips, “What is the name of the supermarket?”

“Sure enough, have you heard of Sunshine supermarket chain?” Rich man Miao said with a sigh, “Brother, you saved my life that day. Richest man Miao is a man with gratitude. If I could come out of this place alive, let alone you, you and your son could buy anything from our supermarket for free for a lifetime.”

Well, the information is correct, it was really the one outside the community. Shen Shian looked at him in a somewhat complicated mood. He still had hundreds of pounds of food in his space. He never paid for them.

With a little thought, he took out a pack of compressed biscuits from his backpack and gave it to him.

Rich man Miao couldn’t believe it. “This, why are you giving it to me?”

Shen Shian replied, “…a good deed everyday.”

Two lines of tears rolled down and were wiped off by rich man Miao, and he was not able to speak for a few moments. He then hurriedly ate the compressed biscuits. Shen Shian had never seen anyone eat something so fast. He took out a bottle of tap water that he had taken before and handed it to him.

Compressed biscuits do not swell in water, but the fullness caused by the sugar was obvious. Rich man Miao resisted the urge to eat the last biscuit, stood up and wanted to bow to Shen Shian. But Shen Shian avoided him.

“This is the only time I will be giving you food. I can’t give you food all the time. You have to rely on yourself to survive. You are a successful businessman. You must have dealt with more people than me. Now, people are sluggish, and it is definitely easier to solve than competitors you had encountered.”

Shen Shian settled down and said, “Stay alive so that you can take back the gold bars you threw away.”

Rich man Miao’s swollen eyes instantly became bright.

A shadow flashed opposite the bookshelf, and it was the tailed person who had left.

Shen Shian hugged the child and thought that in the eyes of the other survivors, he was not only well-stocked, but also a virgin mary{n1}.
