272: Deafening fart sounds
“The Ping An Small Mall has so many instant packaged foods that can be distributed for free to everyone as emergency rations.”
Pei Wenlong said with ill intent.
Since he couldn't get the small mall, Boss Jiang shouldn't even think about keeping it!
“I think his suggestion is very good.”
The middle-aged woman who spoke had a neat short haircut, wore thick-rimmed glasses, and her mouth naturally drooped, making her look like she was always frowning.
She was Kong Linlan, the person in charge of the Capital Military Store.
“Grain and flour will spoil if not stored properly and become inedible, but the packaged food sold by Ping An is completely sealed, so there's no need to worry about spoilage. It can even be eaten past its expiration date.”
Kong Linlan spoke earnestly, but a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.
Unlike others in the Capital, her salary was linked to sales.
No matter how many contribution points the Military Store earned, she would get half.
However, ever since the Ping An Small Mall opened, residents rarely went to the Military Store to buy things, which drastically reduced her income, and she couldn't skim off any profits anymore.
In the past, residents would give her gifts every now and then to buy good merchandise, but now?
No one paid any attention to her!
Although she looked down on Pei Wenlong, an enemy's enemy was a friend, and they had to ruin the small mall!
Who told Boss Jiang to steal her business!
Shao Ziyue disagreed with Pei Wenlong and Kong Linlan's suggestion: “First, Ping An’s goods are not enough to distribute to everyone, and eating instant packaged food is not a long-term solution.”
“Only when the land can grow crops can humans always eat their fill.”
Zhou Wanqing also spoke: “General Manager Shao is right. Instant packaged food is not renewable, and there will always be a day when it runs out.”
“What then? Will humans just starve to death?”
“Instead of thinking about those impractical things, it's better to think about how to grow food.”
Don't think she couldn't tell that these two were targeting her Benefactor!
Pei Wenlong persisted: “Crops take time to grow, and the land might not be able to be cultivated in the future. If we don't eat instant packaged food, what will we eat?”
“Besides, my intention is to use the Ping An Small Mall's goods as emergency rations, as contingency food.”
“If food really can't be grown, the residents of the Capital will still have something to eat. I'm thinking of you all!”
Kong Linlan: “A bottle of drink from Ping An sells for 300 grams of gold. This was an astronomical price before the apocalypse.”
“Boss Jiang has made a fortune and should contribute some back to the Capital.”
Boss Jiang finished the last piece of apple and said bluntly: “You, one managing all the Military Stores in the Capital, and the other the leader of the base, are both richer than me, so why don't I see you donating supplies?”
Kong Linlan: “The goods in my store belong to the military; I have no right to use them.”
“Then you should shut up.”
“If you can't lead by example, why are you morally blackmailing me?”
Kong Linlan choked.
Boss Jiang then looked at Pei Wenlong, hitting him where it hurt: “Boss Pei promised to compensate the Capital and the You Family with a thousand boxes of supplies two days ago, so you must have a very solid family fortune.”
“You've lived in the Capital for several days for free and enjoyed guest treatment, shouldn't you return the favor with a batch of supplies?”
“Speaking of which, on my way home last night, on a whim, I recorded the night view of the Capital with my phone, and there was a very special truck in it. Boss Pei, would you like to see it?”
Pei Wenlong panicked.
This bitch actually recorded a video last night?
Seeing Boss Jiang about to take out her pocket, Pei Wenlong stood up in a hurry: “I am willing to provide 100 boxes of supplies to the Capital as a thank you gift!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions became subtle.
Pei Wenlong clearly had something on him that Boss Jiang was holding.
Free supplies were not to be refused, so Cheng Pingwei raised his hand and told Pei Wenlong to sit down: “You will send someone back to Fengquan City to retrieve the supplies today.”
“When they arrive, you can go back with them. You'll get to stay in the Capital for a few more days.”
The implication was to detain Pei Wenlong as a hostage to prevent him from reneging on his debt.
Pei Wenlong nodded resentfully, hating Boss Jiang in his heart, and no longer in the mood to scheme against her small mall.
Kong Linlan was also speechless after being rebuffed by Boss Jiang.
Ultimately, Cheng Pingwei suggested that each base stockpile more food to prevent the land from truly being unable to grow anything in the future.
Whether humanity could successfully pass through the extreme day was up to fate.
They had done all they could; there were no better solutions.
The discussion ended, and everyone left one after another.
Zhou Wanqing waited for Boss Jiang in the corridor.
Seeing her come out, she went over and asked in a low voice: “Fei Fei, what's with the night view and the truck? Did Pei Wenlong do something to you privately?”
“He sent his subordinates to kill me last night, wanting me to die in a car accident. I dealt with those people, and the video was a trick to fool him.”
As Boss Jiang finished her whispered conversation with Zhou Wanqing, Pei Wenlong strode over.
Afraid of being overheard, he lowered his voice and said:
“Give me the video.”
He had to destroy the evidence, otherwise, this bitch would scheme against him again next time.
“If you don't provoke me again, no one else will see that video.” Boss Jiang solemnly bluffed Pei Wenlong.
She took out a fart charm from her pocket, hid it in her palm, and deliberately stepped forward, patting his shoulder.
The fart charm stuck to Pei Wenlong's body and instantly disappeared.
With her other hand, she quietly took out a mini bottle of dog-hated perfume and sprayed it on the hem of his clothes.
“Did you clean up those two corpses?”
Her speaking voice covered the subtle spraying sound.
“Don't touch me!” Pei Wenlong angrily shook off Boss Jiang's hand, suddenly feeling an irresistible force.
Poof—
A deafening fart.
It immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Poof—poof—Pei Wenlong let out two more farts in succession.
Everyone couldn't help but cover their noses and distance themselves from him.
“Boss Pei, you should quickly go to the restroom. I'm afraid if you keep farting, you'll poop your pants.”
“The Capital Hospital has a very high standard. If it doesn't work, go see a gastroenterologist. You're farting so much in one minute.”
“I feel like I've become smelly myself.”
Pei Wenlong's face turned red from what was said. He didn't bother to ask Boss Jiang for the video and hurried away to find a restroom.
Zhou Wanqing couldn't help but touch the dagger she carried with her.
Going to the restroom was usually when a person was most defenseless.
Anyone who bullied her Benefactor must not be allowed to live.
“Fei Fei, I'm feeling a bit unwell, probably my period. I'll head back first.”
Finding an excuse, Zhou Wanqing quickly left.
Boss Jiang didn't doubt Zhou Wanqing's words and went to the elevator entrance.
The elevator had already gone down, so she had to wait for the next one.
Coincidentally, she ran into Mo Yanan.
He came out late, so he missed the first batch of elevators.
Mo Yanan walked up to Boss Jiang and whispered: “What did you mean by the night view during the meeting?”
“Did Pei Wenlong cause you trouble?”
Boss Jiang: “Yes, but it's resolved.”
“Once his people deliver the supplies, I'll arrange for someone to deal with him on the road. Does Sister Jiang Fei want to do it herself?”
“I can leave his life to you.”
“No.” Boss Jiang refused Mo Yanan: “Let Pei Wenlong live until Fengquan City, then kill him.”
Otherwise, her “surprise” would have been for nothing.
Just then, the elevator arrived, and Boss Jiang and Mo Yanan stepped inside.
They reached the lobby on the first floor.
As soon as the elevator door opened, Boss Jiang smelled a pungent sour odor.
The dog-hated perfume on Pei Wenlong had taken effect.
Boss Jiang immediately took out a mask from her pocket and put it on, and also put a mint candy in her mouth to dispel the smell.
She didn't forget to share some with Mo Yanan.
In the corner of the lobby, several people were bent over, retching.
Those who had finished throwing up complained on the side.
“Pei Wenlong running around with soiled pants is bad enough, but he even wanted to take off his pants to prove he didn't soil them. It's absolutely disgusting.”
“Fortunately, the guards chased him away, so our eyes weren't soiled.”
“Ugh—no, this smell is too strong, I'm going home.”
Mo Yanan could smell the stench even through his mask and quickly ran to the car.
Uncle Liu also smelled the spreading stench in the car and couldn't help but ask his young master: “Did the toilet in the Central Building explode?”
“I'm not sure, drive quickly.”
He needed fresh air!
Boss Jiang also got into the off-road vehicle and started the car, driving away from the Central Building.
Unbeknownst to them, around a secluded corner.
Zhou Wanqing's face was pale from vomiting, and she couldn't even hold her knife steady.
Pei Wenlong was too smelly; she really couldn't get close to him!
