Chapter 343.
Word spread like wildfire through the Newport City Base: a “pop-up supermarket was opening. They heard that anything could ad
as long as you had Undead Cores, you could trade for whatever you needed.
The entire population was beyond excited!
How long had it been?
How long had it been since they’d seen anything new?
For months, they had been picking through the ruins of the city, scavenging for broken junk that wasn’t too far gone and parching it up to keep it working.
It was the same with their clothes.
They were a mess of stitches and patches.
Life had been incredibly hard.

Now that they heard there were actual goods for sale, why wouldn’t they buy as much as they could?
Over the past few months, they had killed plenty of Undead and hoarded a significant number of Cores. If they didn’t spend them now, when would they?
Families began tearing their homes apart, digging through every nook and cranny to find their stashed-Undead Cores, preparing for a massive shopping
spree.
However, because the number of people wanting to buy was overwhelming and Josie Quinn’s team was limited in both staff and to issue a declaration: Rationing!
Each person could only buy one type of item once per day!
space, she was forced
When this notice went out, the survivors’ brains became sharper than ever.
People began forming teams. One person would buy the total amount of a specific item needed by everyone in the group, and then another person would handle a different item for the team..
Josie had only stipulated that they could only buy one *type* of item; she hadn’t specified a limit on the quantity!
They exploited this loophole with surgical precision.
Did Josie know about the loophole?
Of course she did.
But the amount of supplies in her space was truly gargantuan. She wasn’t at all afraid of them buying her out.
The entire population of the Newport City Base was only two million people!
The grain she held was enough to feed ten million people for a hundred years!
Her other supplies were just as limitless.
So, she really didn’t care.
On the day the supermarket officially opened, it was a sea of people
The area was packed so tight that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
The Base Commander had anticipated this, so he sent his men ahead of time to maintain order. He had given them strict orders, under no circumstances was anyone to offend Josie and her team.
First, they didn’t dare cross her-they couldn’t afford to. Second, they were terrified that if they annoyed Josie, she would stop the trade. That would be a catastrophic loss for the base.
Consequently, everyone behaved and queued up.
They were let in one by one to shop.
