Chapter 134: 132 Setting up Roadblocks Business
The old man raised his hand and pushed the Xiao Chaihu Granules in Hua Mi’s hand back,
"Don’t bother with the change, actually, we should be giving you more money. It’s just that we are old and don’t carry much cash on us."
All their cash was stored in the bank, but now that there were no cell signals and no internet, they couldn’t withdraw their funeral savings.
So, with great embarrassment, they had only given Hua Mi twenty dollars.
The old man’s wife standing next to him took hold of Hua Mi’s wrist and whispered,
"Run along, good child, hurry."
Just a young girl, she completely failed to see the human perils around her. Looking at those hungry, covetous people, none of them would make it past the barrier.
The appearance of a young woman selling supplies at this time had obvious consequences.
But for Hua Mi to leave now was clearly too late. She was surrounded by people.
Those who had been lining up to pass the obstacle crowded around her.
Even if all Hua Mi had were a few oranges, everyone wanted to try their luck; maybe they could get an orange too?
Someone pulled out a hundred-dollar bill and asked softly,
"Do you have any other supplies to sell? I have money, and I don’t need change."
One person asked, and a crowd swarmed around her, bombarding her with questions,
"I have cash here, can you sell me some supplies?"
"I have power, my phone is charged, just need some signal and I can transfer money to you."
"I..."
Hua Mi, surrounded by the crowd, responded calmly,
"No rush. Those of you with cash, line up first. I still have Self-heating Mini Hot Pots."
Saying this, she took a Self-heating Mini Hot Pot (Dark Mustard Flavor) from her raincoat, and in her other hand held a bottle of mineral water,
"With this, paired with mineral water, both for 69.9, give me the money and it’s yours."
"I have a hundred dollars, here, take it!!!"
The man who squeezed to the front shoved a hundred-dollar bill into Hua Mi’s hand, almost grabbing the Self-heating Mini Hot Pot and mineral water from her.
He didn’t ask for change either, just ran off with the Self-heating Mini Hot Pot and mineral water.
A crowd shouted loudly, "I want one too, I want one too."
"Give me some, give me some."
The people clustered around Hua Mi like a swarm of sparrows.
Hua Mi was unhesitant, continuously taking out Self-heating Mini Hot Pots (Dark Mustard Flavor) and mineral water from her raincoat.
Thanks to her raincoat, which looked particularly large, and due to the darkness of the sky and the chaotic surroundings causing enough panic,
Hua Mi kept handing out supplies without anyone finding it odd.
Just as emotions were growing increasingly uncontrollable, the disturbance here finally got the attention of the people setting up the barrier.
A group of men rushed out from the barrier, wielding clubs, beating the survivors gathered around Hua Mi without holding back.
Abuses flew rampantly, and the area outside the barrier was in sheer tumult, filled with all manner of screams and cries.
This was exactly the effect Hua Mi had desired.
A survivor finally couldn’t hold back and yelled angrily,
"Who are you people? Why set up a roadblock here? We just want to go to Xiang City and City B to buy some supplies!"
"Life is already hard, and yet you still exploit us. Who gave you the power?"
Many people have questioned this issue before, but since no one has taken the lead, everyone was reluctant to be the first to resist.
However, now someone outside the barrier is selling materials, and you can buy them with cash without having to go to Xiang City or City B.
The survivors saw hope.
What people fear most is having hope, because once hope is established, if it gets destroyed, disappointment can lead to a collapse of humanity!
Those who set up the barrier beat up the survivors with punches, kicks, and sticks, until finally, they ignited the survivors’ rage.
It’s unclear who started fighting back first, all the women, children, and elderly without Combat Power were crouched by the roadside.
They tried to shrink themselves into a safe zone.
And on the entire road, person attacked person, anyone holding a stick was beaten.
"Who allowed you to set up this barrier? What right do you have to set up barriers on this highway?"
"Even the Xiang City Garrison Commander didn’t order a roadblock, those of you blocking the road will be shot."
Hua Mi shouted, encouraging the survivors to rise up in resistance while she took advantage of the chaos to enter the barrier.
Inside the barrier, there were a few men preparing to go out to control the situation outside, and suddenly, a woman entered!
Eighth Uncle was tied on top of a car roof, shouting loudly,
"Miss Hua, run, don’t worry about us, they..."
Before he could finish, Hua Mi had already pulled out her rebar and quickly beat up everyone setting up the barrier.
She deliberately controlled her strength, not hitting people’s heads, but after overpowering them, she grabbed one man by the collar and tossed him out of the barrier,
"Go on, go face the survivors’ rage!"
In no time, Hua Mi had dealt with all the men inside the barrier who came at her.
She climbed up to the roof, untied her Clearing Team, and counted everyone,
"Where’s Daddy Shi?"
"Here, over here!"
Seventh Uncle ran to a corner and carried out Daddy Shi, who had been beaten half to death.
Initially, their Clearing Team was the first to resist the people setting up the barrier, but since they were all in their fifties to eighties, they couldn’t overcome those strong young men.
The oldest, Daddy Shi, hid in a garbage truck but was eventually found and beaten by the group.
Hua Mi looked around and pointed at a relatively spacious van on the road, then got a bunch of medicine for Seventh Uncle,
"First, check on Daddy Shi’s injuries, drive the van a bit further away, don’t block the road."
At this point, the survivors and the barrier setters were fiercely fighting, and it seemed the group setting the barriers was rather large.
There must have been at least fifty to sixty men, each very strong.
But there were quite a few young and strong men among the survivors too, making the scene chaotic.
Hua Mi couldn’t afford to join the brawl; she led the elderly Clearing Team to the biggest van, preparing to get Daddy Shi inside and treat him.
The rest were to check the vehicles stuck on the road one by one, planning to drive them away and dismantle the barrier.
Then, Eighth Uncle opened a van door only to see a van full of cash.
The other vehicles contained either cash or supplies.
"Sister Hua! Come here quick."
Eighth Uncle immediately closed the van door, fearing that the van full of cash would be rushed upon and robbed by the survivors.
Although the cash had originally come from the survivors themselves.
Hua Mi stepped forward, glanced at the cash inside the van through the window, and said to Eighth Uncle and the others,
"It looks like this business of setting up barriers is a highly profitable one; in such a short time, this group has amassed so much supplies and cash."
Hua Mi was somewhat tempted.
