The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 335

Shen Lu was truly flabbergasted. She couldn’t understand how the owner of Jiaoyao Garden had the nerve to say something like that.

‘Who runs a business by having to carry everyone else along with them?’

‘She wasn’t the president of the Commerce Association. All she had to do was manage her own affairs.’

‘The guy was probably still holding a grudge because she hadn’t saved him any face and had thrown him out directly last time.’

‘Talk about being petty.’

‘Besides, wasn’t he the one who started running his mouth first?’

Shen Lu scoffed, deciding not to reply to anyone’s messages. She set her account so that no one could add her.

How could she possibly lend out the military armored vehicle that Fu Cheng had gone to so much trouble to get for her?

It was a no-brainer. What did other people’s business success have to do with her?

‘If their businesses took off, it’s not like they’d give her a cut of the profits.’

[DING! 520/520 three-star reviews have been received. Mission complete. Reward: 1000 reputation value.]

Hearing the reward notification, Shen Lu’s small bit of unhappiness instantly vanished.

Shen Lu said, “Tongzi, you guys really can grant wishes!”

‘It was a little on the low side, though.’

But Shen Lu was already very satisfied. It would have taken her a whole month to save up 1000 reputation value on her own!

[Happy birthday, Host~]

Tongzi didn’t say it outright, but its thoughtful intentions were clear in the reward.

If the system had a physical body, Shen Lu would have given it a big hug and patted it firmly on the back a few times.

Wang Daguo drove back at around two in the afternoon.

He came back alone; Xin Yu had gone home.

“Everything go okay? No major problems, I hope?” Shen Lu asked.

“It was fine, but some people tried to take advantage of the situation and falsely claim the deliveries.” Wang Daguo scratched the back of his head. “Good thing Xin Yu was with me. He’s quicker on his feet than I am, so we didn’t make any mistakes.”

“Then you two should partner up for deliveries next time, too. You can look out for each other.”

“Alright.” Wang Daguo paused, then brought up something else. “Boss, on my way back, a bunch of people wanted to hitch a ride, but I didn’t let any of them on.”

“Of course you couldn’t let them on. Our vehicle is for making deliveries. Under normal circumstances, it’s not to be used for anything else.”

Shen Lu preferred to have vehicles for dedicated purposes. She didn’t like one vehicle taking on too many tasks, as it could easily lead to chaos.

Shen Lu only planned to use this military armored vehicle for picking up produce and making deliveries. Unless it was an emergency, it would stay put outside the backyard wall.

After discussing these matters, Shen Lu told Wang Daguo to hurry up and eat lunch, as everyone else had already eaten.

Shen Lu sat behind the front counter and opened the mini-program’s backend to do some maintenance. It was the first day of the trial run, so a lot of bugs were bound to pop up. Now was a good time to fix them.

“Boss Shen, I think you should have let Wang Daguo agree to help those people.” Sang Yue seemed to appear out of nowhere. She stood outside the front counter, her large, earnest eyes fixed on Shen Lu.

Shen Lu clicked her tongue. “Miss Sang, do you have any idea how much a liter of gasoline costs right now?”

“I saw on the news that it’s 39 Star Coins a liter.”

“This military armored vehicle uses two liters of fuel per kilometer. I’m running a small business; I can’t afford to be that charitable.”

“But couldn’t you have them pay for it? I just think that harmony brings wealth, and being kind to others could make your restaurant’s business even better.”

Shen Lu felt a headache coming on. ‘Isn’t she overstepping? She’s only been working here for a day and she’s already questioning my business methods?’

“You eat a meal one bite at a time, and you build a business one step at a time.”

At this point, Sang Yue knew she couldn’t convince Shen Lu.

She bit her lip and left, looking a little disappointed.
