Chapter 277
Liam was nothing like that idiot, Alex, who nearly got everyone killed last time.
Once everything in front of them went quiet, he gave the order, “Clear orie shop at a time.”
Just then, Wallace stepped forward. “Captain Galdwell, we’ll start with the back two rows.”
“Hold it.”
At that moment, the “justice-loving” Hayley stepped in.
“You and I haven’t lifted a finger this whole time. Captain Caldwell has been doing all the work from start to finish. Now that it’s time to move supplies, you suddenly rush forward? Here’s my suggestion: everything goes on Base K1’s trucks first. After all the supplies are safely moved, we split them then. I trust Captain Caldwell. Captain Goodwin, you trust him, too, right?”
Wallace said nothing.
When Liam heard that, he nearly wanted to lift Hayley off the ground and spin her around right there.
What was going on with her today?
She had his back the entire time.
He was taken aback by how nice she was being today.
“I’ll start,” Hayley said. “Leonard, go help Captain Caldwell load everything. All supplies on his trucks.”
Then, she turned to Wallace. “What about you?”
Wallace clenched his teeth.
“We’ll do the same. Captain Caldwell did most of the work, so of course, it should go on his trucks. You, you, all of you, move the supplies to Captain Caldwell’s vehicles!”
Two hours later, after everyone worked nonstop from store to store, the entire first floor had been cleaned out.
Since it was a wholesale district, the layout was extremely organized.
The first and second floors sold affordable women’s clothing with trendy styles aimed at teenage girls and women in their early
twenties.
Every shop was packed with inventory.
And because the outbreak had started in August, many stores had already switched heavily into tall clothing.
Wholesale markets always ran one season ahead of street sales. Some stores even had winter stock ready.
It worked out perfectly. This massive batch of clothes would solve winter clothing problems for countless women.
The third floor sold men’s clothing.
The fourth and fifth floors had high end women’s fashion and children’s wear.
Of course, there were also shops selling underwear and sleepwear, grouped into their own sections
Everything was neatly arranged and easy to load.
Racks were rolled out whole when possible. Loose clothing was bundled up using store sheets and carried out in large loads.
Skirts, shorts, pants, dresses, T-shirts, long sleeves, jackets, coats, and padded winter gear were moved in waves.
By the time the first floor was emptied, it was almost 5 p.m.
“We stay at Shield Base tonight and come back tomorfos “Liam made the call without hesitation
18 Bormas
Night missions were dangerous, and one of the conditions for bringing Shield Base along was that they would provide a place to
stay
The clothing complex was far from Base K1. Going back and forth in a single day was imposible. They had to spend the night away from base
“Of course,” Wallace said, his smile finally returning “have already arranged everything back at the base, ready for you
When Hayley heard they were heading to Wallace’s base, she raised an eyebrow ‘Alright. Let’s go.”
