220: This kind of stuff is not looked down upon by the neighbors.

Jiang Fei had no intention of returning Big Yellow to Lu Yu.

The cat was already hers!

On the surface, however, she said earnestly, “Big Yellow is at my house, don’t worry, nothing will happen to him.”

After sending Lu Yu off, Jiang Fei put the chicks and goslings in the yard, then went to the empty room on the second floor of the villa, took out various cat supplies, and arranged Big Yellow’s room, thinking to herself—

A sun-facing guest room downstairs would be nice; she could save it for Xiao Hua Lao.

She wondered if Xiao Hua Lao was doing well in the Underground City… Thinking of Xiao Chuxia, Jiang Fei couldn’t help but use her special walkie-talkie to call Mo Yanan, asking him to have his people bring some supplies to her when they went to Changhai.

“I’ll pack the supplies into a truck and park it at the entrance; you can send someone to pick it up when you have time.”

Mo Yanan: “Then I’ll have the bodyguards go over now.”

“My people will be leaving in an hour.”

Cutting off the call, Jiang Fei immediately went downstairs and retrieved a truck from the entrance.

She filled it with instant food, snacks, milk, juice, clothes, shoes, and other items.

Soon after, the bodyguards arrived.

After handing the car keys to the bodyguards, Jiang Fei returned to the villa to continue tidying up.

The next day.

Mo Yanan contacted Jiang Fei via walkie-talkie to go out.

The supplies in the truck had been moved, and the truck was returned by the bodyguards and parked outside Villa No. 11.

The car keys were hanging on the rearview mirror.

The Fenglin Villa District was very safe with Mo Yanan’s bodyguards patrolling day and night; no ill-intentioned people would sneak in to steal things.

Noticing that Uncle Liu was also there, Jiang Fei found it inconvenient to retrieve the truck and only took the car keys.

Just as she was about to get into the pickup truck, Mo Yanan called out to her.

“Sister Jiang Fei, I have a gift for your injured friend.”

Uncle Liu opened the trunk of his car and took out a tracked electric wheelchair, showing it to Jiang Fei: “Miss Jiang, this wheelchair can go up and down stairs, move forward by itself, and doesn’t require anyone to push it.”

“The wheelchair also has a seatbelt, making it very safe for going up and down stairs; he won’t fall off.”

“Even if you’re not around, your friend can use the wheelchair to go out and shop.”

Mo Yanan: “How about we take him to see the storefronts together and try out the wheelchair?”

“Then I’ll go find Su Liuyuan.”

Jiang Fei pushed the electric wheelchair to Villa No. 9.

Su Liuyuan, who had been lying bored on the sofa, sat up excitedly when he heard about the wheelchair’s function.

“Let’s go, let’s go!”

“Slow down.” Jiang Fei helped Su Liuyuan sit into the wheelchair.

The electric wheelchair was fully charged, and Su Liuyuan tried it for a few minutes in the living room, quickly mastering its use.

Pressing the control button on the armrest of the wheelchair, he zoomed out.

Jiang Fei: “...”

He “ran” quite fast.

The wheelchair’s tracks could go up and down a vehicle, but Jiang Fei’s pickup truck was too small, so Su Liuyuan chose the spacious rear compartment.

It was like riding in a convertible!

After ensuring Su Liuyuan’s electric wheelchair was secured, Jiang Fei got into the driver’s seat of the pickup truck.

Following Mo Yanan’s commercial vehicle, they drove out of the villa district.

She didn’t dare to step on the accelerator the entire time, fearing she would throw Su Liuyuan out of the back.

Mo Yanan’s shops were all on the bustling and prosperous streets of the base.

However, they were either too small or had an unreasonable layout.

After browsing for most of the day, Jiang Fei finally settled on a three-story small mall on the main street.

It not only had an underground parking garage but also a super-large warehouse.

The back door of the warehouse led to a small alley outside, with no residents nearby, making it convenient for her to enter and exit for restocking.

The interior of the mall was already renovated; it had originally been a large Supermarket, not like a shopping mall with independent storefronts.

Each floor was a large open space, filled with empty shelves, display cases, glass cases, freezers, and refrigerated display cases, ready for immediate business.

The elevators and escalators had been converted into ordinary stairs.

Jiang Fei did not consider this a drawback.

Not to mention the fuel consumption, the gaps in escalators could easily snag shoelaces and long skirts, causing accidents.

If not properly maintained, they could also malfunction, trapping people and causing severe injuries.

Even before the apocalypse, there had been several incidents of “escalators eating people,” so she really didn’t dare to use them.

At this point, Su Liuyuan asked Jiang Fei: “Captain, what goods do you plan to sell?”

He already knew that the captain’s behind-the-scenes boss was not Mo Yanan, but herself.

Jiang Fei thought for a moment: “Food, drinking water and beverages, fruits and vegetables, freshwater aquatic products, dried fruits and roasted nuts, daily necessities, jewelry, tobacco, and alcohol.”

Su Liuyuan had a plan: “We can divide it into two zones.”

“The first and second floors will target ordinary residents and the middle class.”

“The top floor will primarily serve the wealthy of the base, selling luxury goods.”

Trusting Su Liuyuan’s business acumen, Jiang Fei nodded in agreement: “You can plan out the goods to be sold on each floor today and set the prices.

“We’ll start moving the goods tonight.”

Mo Yanan: “What about the name of the mall?”

“Ping An Small Mall.”

What she always wanted was peace and safety.

The task of making the signboard and the cash register machines was given to Mo Yanan, and the two agreed to meet at 8 PM.

It was still early, so Jiang Fei drove Su Liuyuan to the Security Headquarters.

Firstly, it was close to the Rescue Center, and she wanted to ask if the Rescue Team was hiring temporary workers so she could legally carry a gun.

Secondly, it was on the way to see how Lu Yu’s interview went.

—

At this moment, at the Security Headquarters.

Lu Yu had just come out with his personal information form when a red supercar suddenly sped past him.

The next moment, the supercar turned around and drove back, stopping by the roadside.

You Chengyu, dressed in a pink suit, got out of the car and ordered Lu Yu: “Take me to find Jiang Fei.”

The last time Jiang Fei left, he reminded the staff at the entrance and exit to notify him immediately if they saw her come to the capital.

But he got drunk yesterday and missed the meeting.

He only knew that Jiang Fei and her friends had been picked up by Mo Yanan.

Mo Yanan couldn’t possibly tell him the address, so he dressed up meticulously today, hoping to try his luck, and unexpectedly met Jiang Fei’s friend.

He had seen this person in a restaurant when Director Ning led a team to the capital before.

His outstanding appearance made it hard for him to forget.

But he wasn’t as handsome as him!

You Chengyu thought jealously.

The newcomer was clearly up to no good, so Lu Yu probed You Chengyu’s intentions: “Is there something you need Jiang Fei for?”

“Of course, to ask her out for dinner and pursue her.”

“Hey, you’re her friend, do you know what she likes?”

As soon as he finished speaking, You Chengyu said narcissistically: “Never mind, it doesn’t matter, my face is enough.”

Lu Yu’s eyes suddenly turned cold, but only for an instant, then returned to his gentle and refined demeanor.

“Jiang Fei is in the alley over there; we can’t drive through, so we’ll walk.”

“Wait a moment.” You Chengyu returned to his car to retrieve a bouquet of red roses from the passenger seat, then checked himself in the mirror.

Finding no issues, he followed Lu Yu into the alley, casually asking a question.

“What is she doing here?”

“Jiang Fei wants to open a shop and came to choose a storefront.” Lu Yu looked around.

No one was around, perfect for taking action.

You Chengyu frowned: “How come I don’t know there are shops here? Are you lying to me… Mmph mmph mmph!!!”

Before he could finish speaking, You Chengyu was gagged by Lu Yu.

Fists rained down on him, a brutal beating.

Until You Chengyu was half-dead, unable to even let out a scream, Lu Yu released him.

He let the man collapse to the ground, then stomped on the red roses.

His neighbor wouldn’t fancy this kind of trash.

Lu Yu, as if nothing had happened, tidied his slightly disheveled clothes.

As he walked out of the alley, a familiar pickup truck drove over.
