"Yo! Finally, we have a visitor. I've waited so long my flowers have wilted," Luo Yunshi said, standing up and walking a few steps forward as soon as she saw them. A charming smile played on her lips.
"Little girl, is your fast-food restaurant still open?" Captain Hao asked, looking at Luo Yunshi with vigilance.
"Yes! You can come in and take a look first. Whether you buy something or not is up to you," Luo Yunshi replied, unbothered by their caution as she smiled.
Captain Hao didn't refuse and followed Luo Yunshi to the entrance of the fast-food restaurant.
Luo Yunshi pointed to the cardboard box on the table by the door. "Everyone, you can take a look at this."
Captain Hao read the contents of the cardboard and immediately understood what was happening.
The other members of the team widened their eyes as they saw what was written on the cardboard, staring at Luo Yunshi in disbelief.
"Is this real or fake? They're actually selling boxed meals, and even grapes! Am I dreaming? It's as hard as climbing to heaven to get grapes in the base!" a man exclaimed in surprise.
The others also looked at Luo Yunshi with astonished expressions, as if they doubted whether her words were true.
"This is absolutely true. I'll open a boxed meal for you to see, and then you'll know if it's real or fake."
Luo Yunshi smiled and nodded at them. As she spoke, she opened the styrofoam cooler on the table and took out the remaining three boxed meals.
"These three boxed meals have cooled down. I'm just showing them to you to prove it's real. We have freshly made boxed meals in the shop. You can buy one to try!" Luo Yunshi said with a smile.
"Wow! It's really rice, and braised pork pieces..." Liu Feifan excitedly reached out to grab a boxed meal.
"Hey! Don't touch!" Luo Yunshi quickly stopped him.
Captain Hao also quickly extended his hand to stop Liu Feifan and warned him with a look.
"Miss owner, how much is a boxed meal?" Captain Hao asked, looking at the boxed meals but making no move to touch them.
"A boxed meal costs only 15 points. You can complete the point exchange at the exchange machine on the left side of the shop," Luo Yunshi explained with a smile.
Captain Hao nodded and asked no further questions. He decided to go in alone to verify. "I see, then I'll go and exchange for points first."
Captain Hao winked at his subordinates, signaling them to wait there, and walked towards the point exchange machine.
"Alright!" Luo Yunshi laughed heartily, not following him, and sat at the dining table to wait.
As Captain Hao entered the shop, Su Hang and Su Tian, the brother and sister, immediately woke up.
In the two years of the apocalypse, vigilance had been deeply ingrained.
Upon seeing Captain Hao, they quickly stood up and respectfully saluted him, saying, "Hello, Captain Hao."
Captain Hao looked at the siblings. Although they were wearing ordinary clothes, their eyes conveyed a maturity and calmness beyond their years.
Captain Hao nodded. After all, he was a well-known captain in the nearby B base, so it was normal for people to recognize him during missions.
"Are you here to buy boxed meals?" Captain Hao asked.
Su Hang and Su Tian nodded.
"Yes, we've both finished ours. The shop has a rule that customers who consume here can stay for 6 hours, so we plan to rest here before leaving," Su Hang replied.
Captain Hao nodded and continued to ask, "How are these boxed meals?"
"They're delicious! The taste is very fragrant, just like the food before the apocalypse. The fruits are also fresh. The price is quite reasonable. We both like them!" Su Hang said.
Captain Hao nodded with satisfaction.
"That's good!"
As Captain Hao spoke, he took out a small gold bead, about 1 gram, from his pocket and walked to the exchange machine.
"Please place the item to be exchanged into the exchange window," a mechanical voice announced.
Captain Hao heard the voice and was surprised. However, following the instructions, he placed the gold bead in his hand into the exchange machine's window.
As soon as the small gold bead was placed into the exchange window, it vanished into thin air.
This startled Captain Hao greatly.
The mechanical voice earlier was normal, but something disappearing into thin air was truly unheard of and very strange.
Captain Hao's suspicion about Luo Yunshi's unusual nature grew.
"Beep, exchange successful!
Name: Hao Mingtian
Gender: Male
Age: 43 years old
Points: 400" a mechanical voice entered his ears.
At the same time, the screen displayed Hao Mingtian's appearance, gender, age, etc., except for his points.
Hao Mingtian sensed the points in his mind and calmed down.
Indeed! The world is full of wonders. This Boss Luo is definitely a master.
Masters like this usually make things happen as easily as crushing an ant; they wouldn't need to open a shop.
Hao Mingtian walked up to Luo Yunshi, his guard significantly reduced.
"Boss Luo, give me one boxed meal first," Hao Mingtian said with a smile.
Luo Yunshi looked at Captain Hao, thinking that this man was quite smart.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll bring it to you right away," Luo Yunshi nodded and walked towards the shop's replica machine.
"You all go and exchange for points too! There shouldn't be any problems," Luo Yunshi said softly to the others.
"Yes! Captain." Everyone also rushed to exchange with smiles.
Food! Vegetables, meat dishes, rice, and fruit. Who wouldn't crave it?
After a short while, Luo Yunshi walked over to Captain Hao with a boxed meal.
When Captain Hao took the boxed meal, he noticed that the points in his mind had been deducted by 15, leaving 385 points. "Thank you!"
"You're welcome." Luo Yunshi smiled and shook her head.
Captain Hao first slowly ate the dishes, and after eating half, he began to eat large mouthfuls. Finding that his body was fine, he finally felt completely relieved.
Meanwhile, the other nine members of the team had excitedly exchanged for points.
Luo Yunshi brought out nine more boxed meals and handed them to the nine individuals respectively.
"Ahem, the shop is a bit small. There are only eight chairs in total... how about you take turns sitting down to eat?
Luo Yunshi suggested with a slightly awkward smile.
There was nothing she could do. Chairs weren't sold on Tuan Tuan Youxuan. She couldn't help it.
Everyone quickly waved their hands and said, "No need, thank you for your kindness, Boss Luo. We can eat standing up."
"Yes, we're fine eating standing up," the other seven quickly added.
Seeing the situation, Su Hang and Su Tian also felt embarrassed to stand, so they quickly gave up two seats.
With a team of ten people and eight stools, they managed to squeeze in and sit down. The group began to devour their food.
"Oh my! It's so delicious!"
This feeling was too good! All the fatigue of the past few days was swept away.
"Boss Luo, your boxed meals are truly delicious! Can we buy more to take away?"
Seeing that the others had almost finished eating, Captain Hao quickly looked up and asked.
"Of course, you can." Luo Yunshi nodded and smiled.
Captain Hao was overjoyed and decided to buy 40 more boxed meals before leaving.
After all, his team was full of adult men. A team of 10 people, and their appetites were huge.
40 boxed meals, if managed carefully, would last them a day and a half.
"These grapes are so sweet, and the sesame spinach is so fragrant."
"The shredded pork with garlic sauce is also incredibly delicious. I feel like I've returned to before the apocalypse."
"Every dish is delicious. The people in the upper echelons of the base probably can't eat as well as us today. Haha."
"Boss Luo, give us another 40 boxed meals," Captain Hao said to Luo Yunshi.
"Okay. Captain Hao, please wait a moment, I'll get them right away." Luo Yunshi said and turned to leave.
"For our team, two boxed meals per person should be fine, right? If it's not enough, add more. We'll put them all in Pang Pang's spatial storage," Captain Hao said to his team members.
"Yes! Captain, these boxed meals are really delicious. Let's buy enough for two days. Within two days, even if we put them in Pang Pang's storage, they shouldn't spoil."
"Okay, then let's get another 20, making it 60 in total. We can sell some to the people at the base. Even if we don't sell them, we can eat them within two days."
"Okay, that's a great idea." Everyone agreed.
Luo Yunshi brought 40 boxed meals and placed them on the table.
"Boss Luo, please give us another 20 boxed meals," Hao Mingtian said with a smile.
Luo Yunshi heard this, smiled and nodded, then turned to get another 20 boxed meals and walked towards the counter.
Great! Today, they had sold 72 boxed meals in just a few hours. Within a hundred boxed meals, it was pure profit! Luo Yunshi was ecstatic.
An hour later, after the ten people had eaten their fill, Luo Yunshi handed them several flyers she had written.
"Captain Hao, these are flyers for Good Fortune Fast Food. I'm giving you a few now. If you return to the base, please help promote my fast-food restaurant if you can." Luo Yunshi said, looking at Hao Mingtian expectantly.
"That's easy. Anyone in our team who returns to the base can help with promotion." Hao Mingtian agreed readily.
"Haha, then thank you. We'll have different new dishes every day from now on. If you're interested, you can come and try them," Luo Yunshi said with a smile.
"No problem! We'll definitely come and eat," Hao Mingtian said heartily.
"Oh my! Who is this? It's the famous Captain Hao from our B base! What a coincidence! Captain Hao, are you here to buy food at this fast-food restaurant?" a sharp and sarcastic female voice came from the side.
