Chapter 154: Chapter 154: Health Supplement Company
The office buildings are at the northwest corner of the intersection, with a total of four buildings—considered a very famous commercial district in East Suburb.
The three of them sped all the way toward Second Ring, where the boundary line was quite distinct.
It was the bridge right in front of them, tall and large, which could even be referred to as an overpass.
Now, one could still glimpse some of its original state, displaying how towering it was.
On the road, there’s a very famous university stretching across a section, with a large park right across from it, a historical tourist attraction.
It’s free to visit, and usually, there are especially many people there, surrounded by shopping malls, although the storefronts are relatively low.
Arriving here, Song Yi gradually slowed down.
Jhiang Yuan also saw the situation on the road from a distance, with people likely out searching for supplies.
However, the view before them was crystal clear, and the ice was quite broad.
Whenever people were sighted, they had to take a good, long look.
Their ice cart was carrying things, naturally drawing envious stares.
Seeing people approaching, Jhiang Yuan and Jhiang Xingzhi also caught up.
"Those folks don’t look friendly, let’s slide past quickly, and if they entertain any bad ideas, we’ll just take action immediately,"
"Okay!"
After speaking, Song Yi started to strategize.
"I’ll go first, Jhiang Yuan in the middle, Uncle covers the rear."
All three of them agreed, as in this situation, everyone was on high alert.
Though the road was quite broad, the chance to circle around them had become impossible.
The opposing group consisted of six individuals, each holding sticks or similar items in their hands.
They could use them to stay upright on the ice to prevent slipping, or as weapons to defend themselves.
The six people lined up in a row, and as Song Yi was not moving very fast, when the two groups faced each other,
One of them raised his stick, pointing it at him: "Stop right there..."
No joking, Song Yi was not one to scare easily, swinging his ice sleeves to strike.
The man had not expected to face such a tough opponent and was forced into a passive defense.
Balanced on the ice cart, Song Yi quickly spun around, directing a hit towards the man’s legs.
The ice cart then slid forward, and by this time, Jhiang Yuan had arrived at the front as well.
Seeing that the situation was turning dire, the rest of the group rushed in to help.
She imitated Song Yi’s approach, targeting the legs of these individuals specifically.
She had been playing with the ice cart since she was young and after sliding around for a bit, she quickly recaptured the feeling of old.
Turning agilely this way and that, she caught the opposing side off guard each time.
Though they had numbers on their side, they felt uncomfortable on the ice, further compounded by an unstable base.
Song Yi and the others encircled and cut them off, never lingering in combat, landing a hit and then fleeing, never allowing them the time to react.
Ten minutes later, the group lay on the ground.
They had no choice; they had aimed for the legs, striking indiscriminately in several rounds, until standing became impossible.
"Let’s go!"
Their destination was not far off, seemingly right within sight.
The road was quite broad, and they might need a few more minutes of walking.
Jhiang Yuan and Jhiang Xingzhi also did not dare to be careless, following Song Yi closely.
This was a popular area, and there were likely to be many people nearby looking for things as well.
The three of them must not split up as it would be too easy to encounter danger.
Looking at this pathway, it seemed to lead to the office buildings next door.
Due to the elevation of the land here, they were already at the level of the fifteenth floor.
Thankfully, the office buildings were quite tall, each being thirty-two stories.
"Xiao Song, how come we’ve ended up at the very back?"
Jhiang Xingzhi was somewhat puzzled, looking at Song Yi and asking.
"Uncle, the office building ahead is too conspicuous.
Many people come here, and their first target is always that place. Let’s do the opposite."
"Right, young people like you really have sharp minds."
Jhiang Yuan also thought that Song Yi’s idea was good. With four buildings here, the two in the front were probably not going to be spared.
After all, they were the first things you’d see, and so much time had passed.
The three didn’t dare waste time and got busy as soon as they arrived.
They had to bring the ice cart with them everywhere they went, the kind you take with you wherever you go.
The place on the fifteenth floor led straight to a hallway.
There were quite a few small companies inside, mainly because the floor space was so large.
Jhiang Yuan was also in a hurry; she was looking for medical items. Just now at the community hospital, she didn’t know how much stuff her dad and the others had managed to find, and she felt somewhat uneasy.
She wanted to ask about it, but since the two were very tense, she didn’t speak up.
Song Yi’s goal was probably still those supplies.
It was strange though, he was hoarding supplies, but she hadn’t seen him buy much before.
She had no idea what he was thinking.
"This area should be okay, look, there are no signs of damage."
"Then let’s hurry, we need to make the most of our time."
Jhiang Yuan said and immediately started to get busy.
The companies here were all not big, it seemed they all dealt with health products.
She never believed in these things before, always feeling that they were ripping off the elderly.
The so-called miraculous effects weren’t that useful at all.
And even though these companies weren’t very big, they usually had a conference room that wasn’t too small.
Since they were here, they might as well take a look.
The products and such they could ignore, but it was often in places like this that there would be supplies.
They tended to attract the elderly by giving out things like eggs, noodles, and the like.
Jhiang Yuan first arrived at an office where there indeed were some things, but they were just rice, cooking oil, and vermicelli.
As gifts, none were of a large size.
The rice was packaged in one-pound bags, labeled as Wuchang no-wash rice.
The cooking oil was 1L, probably also intended as a gift.
The brand name was the same as the company’s, suggesting they produced it themselves.
She once had a customer who ran such a company, which was said to have its own retirement base.
A place with beautiful scenery and a pristine environment, where people could retire and all the food and drink was grown and raised by the retirement area itself.
These edibles would also be sold to others.
As for the company’s main product, some sort of capsule, Jhiang Yuan had no interest and skipped over it entirely.
The gifts behind the reception desk were few, she took a token amount to put in her bag, but she threw the rest into her space.
Moreover, a place like this definitely had a small storage room.
She looked around and indeed found a small storeroom.
It wasn’t big, only about five square meters.
Inside was a circle of shelves, except for the gift-wrapped capsules.
The rest were the supplies to be distributed. The eggs and dried noodles came in large sacks, each containing several smaller portions.
The rice was the same, she hadn’t tried this no-wash rice before, and didn’t know how it would taste.
Those small quantities of oil were also nice, all boxed up by the case.
She could just collect them straight into her space, saving her the trouble of handling them.
Then there were the workstations, where any useful items could just be tossed into woven bags.
When she came out, Jhiang Xingzhi was already outside, clearly a bit excited.
"My girl, there’s a lot of stuff here, all kinds of food. We’ve really come to the right place."
