Chapter 65: 058 Safe Store (Second Update)_2
However, the military also worried that survivors who got a hold of firearms might be difficult to control and could even cause greater chaos. As a result, not only were the prices of firearms expensive, but their availability was also limited, with strict control over ammunition. Without bullets, firearms in survivors’ hands would be nothing more than a rather sophisticated toy.
After looking through the booklet, Fang Yuxin didn’t plan to purchase any items. Their skills were still passable, and they had awakened their superpowers, crafting some skills. Once they became more proficient with these skills, their strength would further improve. The handguns and rifles that relied solely on bullets to be effective would naturally become useless.

What they wanted more were submachine guns and machine guns, or even rocket launchers. However, it was obvious that unless the situation became even more critical, the military wouldn’t let these powerful weapons fall into the hands of ordinary survivors.
Other than her, everyone else had also looked through the booklet, including Bai Qianqian. However, he was very sensible, and after quickly browsing through it, he didn’t ask to buy any food; instead, he carefully placed the booklet back on the shelf.
The uniformed saleswoman patiently waited nearby, making no effort to push sales. Seeing they had no intention of buying anything, she only smiled without speaking. The goods in the safe store were still in a state of short supply. It was obvious that as more survivors emerged, the items would become even scarcer, so there was no need to worry about not selling them. Naturally, she didn’t need to make an effort to sell.
On the other hand, the other five survivors looked at the booklet with faces full of sorrow, as if they were struggling with what to buy. Just as Fang Yuxin and the others were about to leave, they heard one of them hesitantly ask, “Why is it so expensive? Can’t it be a little cheaper?”
Once he spoke, the others agreed, “Yeah, it’s too expensive. Make it cheaper.”
Another person said, “Can’t you give me a discount? I’ll buy more items.”
The beautiful saleswoman replied politely, “Sorry, the prices are set by higher-ups, and they can’t be discounted.” After seeing the survivors’ disgruntled expressions, she explained further, “All the goods here are riskily procured by the military from other places. The price paid is high, so the current pricing is very reasonable. Later on, when there are more survivors, the prices may even go up.”
Hearing that prices were likely to rise in the future, the five individuals’ expressions turned even uglier. Then, one of them clenched their teeth and declared, “I’ll buy it!” After saying that, he took out his ID Card and pointed to the items in the booklet, “I want this, this, and this.”
After hesitating for a moment, the other four decided to buy as well. Fang Yuxin took particular notice that what these five people bought were mainly guns and food. Given the high cost of firearms, they probably didn’t have many credit points left on them, so they only bought a relatively cheap pistol and some bullets.
Fang Yuxin and the others turned and walked towards the exit. Just as they stepped outside, they saw a green military truck drive up, stopping right at the entrance. As the truck came to a halt and the doors opened, soldiers armed to the teeth jumped out and stood guard beside the vehicle with wary faces. One of them, who was facing Fang Yuxin and the others, shot them an especially piercing look.
Seeing that Fang Yuxin was holding a child’s hand, these people didn’t make any excessive moves, but their demeanor remained defensive. One of them said, “Unrelated personnel clear out quickly, don’t block the way here!”
His attitude was fierce, and the Fang Family couldn’t help but felt a little indignant. However, since these individuals were armed with submachine guns, confronting them would be like throwing an egg against a rock, so the Fang Family prepared to leave. But just as they were about to do so, another truck arrived, and a man jumped out and hurried over, “Xinxin!”
It was Qiu Yiming!
His call made the man who had spoken change his expression. He looked at Qiu Yiming nervously and asked with concern, “Boss, do you know them?”
Qiu Yiming glared at him irritably and pointed at Fang Yuxin as he scolded the man, “Look closely! That’s your sister-in-law! Remember your place in the future, we are soldiers, not bandits!”
After speaking, Qiu Yiming quickly approached Fang Yuxin and also greeted Fang Yuyang, Fang Jintang, and Qu Qianhe, “Uncle, Auntie, Yuyang, what brings you here? Are you planning to buy something?” He seemed puzzled by the last question since he knew that the Fang Family had stocked up on supplies before the apocalypse and shouldn’t need to buy anything from the safe store.
Thinking of the Fang Family’s supplies, he frowned slightly. When he first learned that the Fang Family was stockpiling large amounts of materials before the apocalypse, he began investigating and found out that most of these materials were stored in several large warehouses. Unfortunately, those warehouses were occupied by zombies after the apocalypse and therefore were not easily reclaimed.
As for the remaining materials… he believed that the Fang Family still had plenty in their hands, probably hidden in the basement of their villa. However, considering his relationship with Fang Yuxin, it naturally wouldn’t be right for him to covet these materials.
Speaking of which, his marriage to Fang Yuxin was originally scheduled for the National Day this year, but the apocalypse had forced them to postpone the wedding. Furthermore, there was Bai Qianqian…
As Qiu Yiming’s gaze landed on Bai Qianqian, whom Fang Yuxin held by the hand, a dark tide surged within him, his eyes momentarily deepened with complexity.
Bai Qianqian, however, instantly sensed Qiu Yiming’s hostility. He glanced at Qiu Yiming before shifting his steps and hiding behind Fang Yuxin, only revealing half of his body, and said with a ‘wronged’ tone, “Mama, they have guns. I’m scared.”
At these words, Qiu Yiming’s expression darkened immediately, and the man he had previously scolded also changed his expression, looking at Fang Yuxin with a meaningful gaze—he had only learned today what his boss’s preference was like!
In the midst of this, the truck’s door opened again, and a woman with a seductive figure stepped out. The sharp sound of her high heels echoed as she walked gracefully to Qiu Yiming’s side. She curved her fiery red lips into a playful smile and said, “Captain, perhaps we should handle these supplies before catching up. I am always understanding, and I’m sure she won’t be mad at you.”
