Chapter 103 Panic Buying (Part 2)
Shen Qiu immediately followed Uncle Li, and the two walked towards the outside of the community.
"I said, Uncle Li, you seem to be over sixty this year."
Shen Qiu suddenly remembered and asked.
"Yes what's the matter?"
"You are beyond your age, can you drive?"
"What you said, I'm very strong, sir, I've been driving a heavy truck for decades, why can't I drive it?"
"Okay, but why did you suddenly think of driving this heavy truck?"
"That's why this one asked me for help, and that one also asked me for help. My damn charm! It's too powerful, and there's nothing I can do about it!"
"Wait, are there many people looking for you? Could it be the dancers in the square?"
"Ahem, what are you talking about, they are all neighbors."
The uncle coughed in embarrassment.
"Aren't you afraid of being known by your wife?"
"Shh, Xiaoqiu, don't say it."
"well."
Shen Qiu also couldn't laugh or cry.
Not long after, they came to the street, and an eight-meter-long heavy truck was parked there.
Uncle Li quickly climbed into the main driver's seat, and Shen Qiu also got into the co-pilot's seat.
Soon the car started quickly and drove forward.
At this time, other residents in the community were driving their cars, and the small eDonkeys followed one after another, forming a convoy and marching forward mightily.
"Where are we going?"
Shen Qiu asked Uncle Li curiously.
"Go to the colorful square nearby. There is a material selling point set up by Sky City over there. That selling point is the largest nearby."
Uncle Li explained.
Shen Qiu nodded slightly, then he looked outside at the street.
As a result, he found that not only people from his community were rushing to the colorful square, but 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 did you hear that there will be no supplies?"
"Oh, who do you need to listen to? The eighth administrative district can no longer buy supplies, and I heard that even the seventh administrative district has problems. And some people say that the city of clear sky is hiding the disaster. I heard that there are many dead people in many places. It's almost out of control."
Uncle Li said emotionally.
"Well, I see."
Shen Qiu rubbed his forehead and didn't know what to say.
Half an hour later, Shen Qiu and the others finally drove to the colorful square, and the scene in front of him made his heart sink suddenly.
I saw a simple storage room set up in the colorful square, where there are boxes of basic materials for people to purchase freely!
A heavily armed soldier guarded the material sales point.
Under normal circumstances, this material point can easily accommodate thousands of people to purchase at the same time. But looking at the crowds of people at the scene, there are at least a hundred thousand, which is seriously overloaded.
"Don't squeeze, don't panic! There are plenty of supplies, enough for everyone to purchase."
The officer in charge of the material point kept shouting with a loudspeaker, trying to comfort him.
It's a pity that it's useless. Crowds of people keep squeezing in, for fear that it will be too late.
Shen Qiu and Uncle Li got out of the car.
Other people in the community gathered over one after another, and Uncle Li said to everyone.
"Let's get together and go in together. You can still buy things now. If more people come later, you probably won't be able to buy them. And even if you buy them, they will probably be expensive."
"clear!"
"Go, let's go!"
Uncle Li waved his hand and took the lead to squeeze in.
Shen Qiu followed helplessly, but not to mention, a lot of people means a lot of strength.
They squeezed to the entrance quite smoothly, and rushed in smoothly.
However, after entering, Shen Qiu raised his brows, and he found that the supplies point, the boxes of supplies outside, were actually watched by someone and not allowed to take them.
The internal supplies have been robbed almost, and there are not many left.
So Shen Qiu and the others immediately started, pushing the shopping cart, and ran towards the area where the rice noodles were piled up.
When the results approached, I found that there were not many bags left. Moreover, many people clashed over the remaining bags of rice and noodles, and they were red-faced and red-faced in the quarrel.
Shen Qiu didn't bother to look any further, he pushed the cart and walked to the side, looking for any fish that slipped through the net.
Soon he saw the meat section, and there were still a few large cured hams left, and he took them all down and threw them into the car.
There is also a reason why these big cured hams were spared, because the price of each piece was thousands of Union coins, and the high price still discouraged many people, after all, how much rice noodles cost.
After buying the ham, Shen Qiu pushed the cart and walked all the way forward.
He saw some scattered non-staple food, such as chocolate, French fries and the like.
Shen Qiu didn't pick anything, as long as he could eat, he would stuff it into the shopping cart.
After strolling around, Shen Qiu came to the living area, toothpaste and other common items were all washed out.
The rest are steel wool, towels and the like.
Shen Qiu also looked at it and frowned.
At this time, Shen Qiu saw a thin man with glasses, listless, and pushing an empty shopping cart, parked in the infant and toddler area.
He moved box after box of diapers on a shopping cart.
Shen Qiuruo thought for a while, then pushed the cart over and shouted.
"Zhou Yuan."
Zhou Yuan was startled immediately, he turned his head and saw that it was Shen Qiu, so he exhaled and said.
"It's Shen Qiu."
"Well, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to come shopping! You don't buy food, why do you buy so many diapers?"
Shen Qiu also asked curiously.
"It's not that there is nothing to buy, and I can't grab them, so I just stock up on some diapers. You also know that tigress in my house, who grabs me to hand in homework every day, in case one day, I really have it! I can't buy it at that time." Come on, isn’t it miserable, I have to prepare in advance.”
Zhou Yuan explained to Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu coughed and said.
"That Zhou Yuan, in fact, I want to tell you, can you be gentle when you hand in your homework? And it doesn't have to be that frequent, right? You know, I'm such a spirited guy, it's too much to suffer alone living downstairs gone."
"Oh, you don't know, and I don't want to! You don't know that I work overtime every day to hide from that tigress of mine, and I only go back in the middle of the night, so I can't escape."
Zhou Yuan kept complaining about his grievances to Shen Qiu.
Hearing that, Shen Qiu was also very uncomfortable. He came to look for Zhou Yuan, but in fact, he came to complain because he finally saw the right owner.
I didn't expect him to be quite pitiful, so he said.
"I have to buy something else. We'll talk next time. You should hurry up and buy something else."
After Shen Qiu finished speaking, she hurriedly pushed the shopping cart away.
Zhou Yuan scratched his head, with a regretful expression on his face, he finally found someone to chat with.
After Shen Qiu walked away, he also let out a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, he heard familiar crying and cursing, and then turned his head to look over.
I saw the Wang Po next door grabbing the hand of a ruffian yellow-haired young man, crying and cursing.
"You can't steal it from me. I got it with great difficulty, you robber."
