Shen Qiu then followed Uncle Li, and the two walked out of the community.
"Uncle Li, you seem to be over 60 this year."
Shen Qiu suddenly remembered and asked.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"You are over the age limit, can you drive?"
"What are you saying? I'm very strong. I've been driving heavy trucks for decades. Why can't I drive one?"
"Okay, but why did you suddenly think of driving this heavy truck?"
"That's why they ask me for help. My damn charm is too strong. I can't do anything about it!"
"Wait, a lot of people are looking for you? Could it be those dance partners in the square?"
"Ahem, what are you talking about? We are all neighbors."
The old man coughed awkwardly.
"Aren't you afraid that your spouse will find out?"
"Shh, Xiaoqiu, don't say anything."
"well."
Shen Qiu was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Soon, they arrived at the side of the street where an eight-meter-long heavy truck was parked.
Uncle Li climbed swiftly to the driver's seat, and Shen Qiu also got on the passenger seat.
Soon the car started smoothly and drove forward.
At this time, other residents in the community drove their cars, and their electric scooters followed behind, forming a convoy and moving forward in a mighty manner.
"Which point are we going to?"
Shen Qiu asked Uncle Li curiously.
"Let's go to the Colorful Plaza nearby. There is a supply sales point set up by the City of Clear Sky. That sales point is the largest one nearby."
Uncle Li began to explain.
Shen Qiu nodded slightly, and then looked at the street outside.
As a result, he found that it seemed that more than just people from their community were rushing to the Colorful Plaza, and the streets were full of cars and people.
The situation seems to be more serious than imagined.
"Uncle Li, do you know what happened? Who told you that we were going to run out of supplies?"
"Oh, who else do I need to listen to? The Eighth Administrative District is no longer able to buy supplies, and I heard that the Seventh Administrative District is also having problems. And some people say that Clear Sky City is hiding the disaster. I heard that many places have died, and they are almost out of control."
Uncle Li said this with great excitement.
"Yes, I understand."
Shen Qiu touched his forehead, not knowing what to say.
Half an hour later, Shen Qiu and his crew finally arrived at the Colorful Plaza. The scene before him made his heart sink suddenly.
I saw a simple storage room built in the Colorful Plaza, which contained boxes of basic supplies for people to purchase freely!
Fully armed soldiers are guarding this supply sales point.
Under normal circumstances, this material point could easily accommodate several thousand people purchasing at the same time. However, looking at the dense crowds of people at the scene, there were at least 100,000 people, which was seriously overloaded.
"Don't crowd, don't panic! There are plenty of supplies, enough for everyone to purchase."
…
The official in charge of the supply point kept shouting through a loudspeaker, trying his best to appease them.
Unfortunately it was of no use. Crowds of people kept pushing in, fearing that they would be too late.
Shen Qiu and Uncle Li got out of the car.
Other people in the community gathered together, and Grandpa Li spoke to everyone.
"Everyone, hold together and go in together. You can still buy things now. If more people come later, you may not be able to buy anything. And even if you can buy something, it will probably be expensive."
"clear!"
"Let's go!"
Uncle Li waved his hand and took the lead to squeeze in.
Shen Qiu followed helplessly, but as the saying goes, there is strength in numbers.
They easily squeezed to the entrance and rushed in smoothly.
However, after entering, Shen Qiu raised his eyebrows. He discovered that the boxes of supplies placed outside this supply point were actually being watched by someone and no one was allowed to take them.
The supplies inside had been almost completely looted, and there wasn't much left.
So Shen Qiu and others immediately took action, pushing the shopping carts and running towards the rice and flour storage area.
As time went by, they found that there were only a few bags left. Moreover, many people had quarreled over the remaining bags of rice and flour, and their faces turned red.
Shen Qiu was too lazy to look any further, so he pushed the cart to the side to see if there were any fish that had slipped through the net.
Soon he saw the meat section and there were a few large cured hams left, so he took them all down and threw them into the car.
There is a reason why these pickled hams were spared, because each one costs thousands of Alliance coins. The high price still makes many people stay away from it, after all, how much does rice and flour cost
After buying the ham, Shen Qiu pushed the cart forward.
He saw some scattered side dishes, such as chocolate, French chips and the like.
Shen Qiu is not picky and puts everything into the shopping cart as long as it is edible.
As he was walking around, Shen Qiu came to the living area, where all the daily necessities such as toothpaste had been washed out.
The rest are steel wool, towels and the like.
Shen Qiu also looked at him with a frown.
At this time, Shen Qiu saw a man wearing glasses, listless and thin, pushing an empty shopping cart and stopping in the infant area.
He loaded box after box of diapers onto the shopping cart.
Shen Qiu thought for a moment, then pushed the cart over and shouted.
“Zhou Yuan.”
Zhou Yuan was startled for a moment. He turned around and saw that it was Shen Qiu. He let out a breath and said.
"It's Shen Qiu."
"Well, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to come here to do some shopping! Why did you buy so many diapers instead of food?"
Shen Qiu also asked curiously.
"It's not that there's nothing to buy, and I can't compete with them, so I might as well stock up on some diapers. You know that tigress in my house, who keeps asking me to hand in my homework every day. What if one day I really get pregnant! If I can't buy it then, it will be terrible, I have to prepare in advance."
Zhou Yuan explained to Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu coughed and said.
"Zhou Yuan, I actually want to tell you something. Can you please be quieter when you hand in your homework? And you don't have to do it so often, right? You know, for a spirited guy like me, living down here alone is really too much of a pain."
"Oh, you don't know. I don't want to either! You don't know that I work overtime every day to avoid that tigress in my family and go home in the middle of the night, but I still can't escape..."
Zhou Yuan kept complaining about his grievances to Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. He came to find Zhou Yuan because he finally saw the real culprit and came to complain.
I didn't expect that he was quite pitiful, so I said.
"I still have to buy some other things. We'll talk next time. You should also go buy some other things as soon as possible."
After saying this, Shen Qiu quickly pushed the shopping cart away.
Zhou Yuan scratched his head with a look of regret. He finally found someone to talk to.
After Shen Qiu walked away, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, he heard familiar crying and cursing, and then turned his head to look over.
He saw Wang Po, the woman next door, grabbing the hand of a ruffian-looking yellow-haired young man and crying and cursing.
"You can't rob me. I got it with great difficulty, you robber."
