Doomsday, Let's Open A Restaurant
Chapter 166: Mechanical Heart

Chapter 166: Mechanical Heart

Seeing their leader start to eat, the others immediately picked up their chopsticks and began to eat.

This meal was truly enjoyable.

After about half an hour, Xiao Feng leaned back in his chair and began to talk with these people.

"Tell me! What’s going on?"

"Ah!"

The man sighed and said, "I am Wumong, the leader of the Ganquan City Shelter. Ganquan City only has our shelter. However, some time ago, the provincial base in the Mo Hai Province suddenly began forcibly occupying other shelters, claiming it was for standardized management. But after occupying them, they showed no official demeanor at all. Those who didn’t obey were ruthlessly killed. Some shelters, afraid of them, started to resist, but all the resistors were killed!"

"What? The official base is acting like this?"

Xiao Feng was astonished and asked, "Doesn’t anyone oversee this?"

"Hehe, who oversees it? Mo Hai Province is located in the northwest, far from the emperor’s rule. Who cares?"

Wumong smiled bitterly.

"Recently, they reached Ganquan City, wanting us to merge with them. We heard about their methods and disagreed, so they began to attack us forcibly. Until now, we’ve been beaten with not many people left. We have now united with other shelters that are not satisfied and launched a counterattack. There’s an important counterattack plan, but the premise is that we need to get through their forces. Among us, there are very few evolving individuals who can fly, so we heard about your restaurant and came seeking support!"

After hearing this, Xiao Feng understood their situation.

Then, Xiao Feng looked at Posion King and asked, "Since that’s the case, why don’t you sell them goods?"

"Boss, it’s not that we won’t sell! It’s really that our supply is insufficient!"

Posion King said with a bitter smile.

"Recently, Shelter No. 1 has been crazily increasing its demand, and we’ve always been supplying as much as they take. There’s simply no surplus to give them!"

"Why does Shelter No. 1 want to increase its demand?"

Xiao Feng asked with confusion.

"Some time ago, when you were not here, Shelter No. 1 suddenly suffered a zombie siege. So, they increased their supply regardless of the cost. Today, they directly doubled their demand, asking us to provide whatever we have. Starting today, they want us to supply twice as much!"

"Doubled today?"

Xiao Feng immediately thought of what happened in the command post in Yan Long City today. The goal of Chief Lei was to get him to supply them with food.

"Could it be related to them?"

Xiao Feng immediately thought of Chu Xinger. If Chief Lei asked Chu Xinger to have her brother, Chu Tianxing, intervene, then this matter would definitely be possible.

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng immediately said to Posion King, "Immediately stop all supplies to Shelter No. 1, and clearly state that we will no longer supply them in the future!"

"Why? What’s the reason?"

Posion King immediately asked in confusion.

Xiao Feng’s decision to stop supplying Shelter No. 1 shocked everyone in the restaurant.

"Our main income comes from Shelter No. 1. If we cut off their income, we’re done for!"

"Recently, I had a falling out with the people from the Qingyun Base in Yan Long City. Shelter No. 1 will inevitably join the Qingyun Base, so we will definitely become enemies in the future!"

"What? How is that possible?"

Posion King was furious.

"Damn it! We’ve been supplying them crazily these days!"

He cursed and then instructed Wang Qiang, "Qiang, tell your brothers to stop all deliveries!"

"No problem!"

Wang Qiang nodded and immediately relayed the message to his birdmen brothers, who were responsible for the main supply operations.

Upon hearing about Xiao Feng’s conflict with the Qingyun Base, Wumong’s attitude towards Xiao Feng improved significantly.

One of Wumong’s companions muttered angrily, "Damn these base folks, not a single one of them is any good!"

"It’s not that all official bases are bad; I think someone might be using the guise of an official base to deceive and manipulate!"

Xiao Feng speculated that this might be the case in the Mo Hai Province.

The formal official bases usually prioritize the well-being of survivors.

"Boss, since you’ve stopped the deliveries to them, what about us?"

Wumong looked at Xiao Feng expectantly.

"No problem. How much do you need?"

Xiao Feng asked without hesitation.

"Really? That’s fantastic!"

Wumong was thrilled, and even the people behind him were excited.

"But do you know the prices of our goods?"

Xiao Feng inquired once more.

"We know, we’ve already checked before coming here. You supply Shelter No. 1 because they provide you with ingredients. I’m not exaggerating, but the quality of our goat meat is unmatched in the whole of Huaxia!"

Northwest desert goat meat was renowned, and these desert dwellers made a living selling it even in peaceful times.

They agreed on the terms based on the previous prices.

Before dawn, these people left.

Xiao Feng had promised to have the goods they needed delivered to them directly, eliminating the risk of transportation.

However, Xiao Feng had his own purpose in delivering takeout.

"Alright! Everyone, get some rest!"

It was dawn, and Xiao Feng instructed everyone to take a break.

After returning to the bedroom, Xiao Feng immediately opened the system logs.

During the time away, countless delivery messages must have accumulated outside the restaurant.

And for each order, there could be an additional income of one to three times the normal amount.

Xiao Feng did the math and found that his earnings over the past few days matched what he had spent.

His current energy reserve suddenly shot back up to over forty million.

This made Xiao Feng ecstatic as he lay on the Dragon’s Throne.

As soon as he lay down, the effects of the Dragon’s Throne started to take effect.

With every breath, Xiao Feng felt his evolutionary level skyrocketing at an incredibly fast pace.

"What’s going on? I’ve fulfilled so many delivery orders, yet why only one extra-large gift package?"

After deleting all the logs, Xiao Feng realized that only the recent bulk order had triggered a mysterious large gift package.

Rubbing his hands together, Xiao Feng felt the excitement of a lottery draw.

He took out the mysterious gift package and slowly opened it.

In the next moment, the system’s notification sound chimed in.

[Notification: Congratulations to the boss for acquiring the special item, "Mechanical Heart."]

Mechanical Heart: The heart is the source of power. When used, it substitutes for the original heart, increasing power by five times. It instantly triggers all skills without any buffering, cooldown, or chanting time. However, as the Mechanical Heart isn’t eternal power, it requires recharging every twenty-four hours, with each recharge costing one million energy units.

Seeing this, Xiao Feng was utterly stunned.
