But when they saw the prices listed at the door the next day, they were shocked.

A pound of rice only sells for 20 crystal cores?!

The flour is priced the same?!

And there’s braised eggs and mutant animal meat for sale?!

What kind of divine shop is this!

Some survivors even decided to settle down in S city base for life right then and there.

Some newcomers to the base, after seeing the prices, were immediately moved to tears; they had been scammed too many times, and this was a conscientious base!

The newly opened Heart Talk branch instantly saw a long queue form at its entrance, giving Lin Xiuyuan and the others who came to help quite the scare.

The sign for the Heart Talk branch was also made inside the space.

Because Lin Yunguo not only cooked well but also had good calligraphy skills, Su Jin found a wooden plaque in the Lu Residence and used her Wood Element ability to cut it into the right shape. Of course, the painting was done by Lu Hao and the others; it was only at the end that the meticulously practiced Lin Yunguo wrote the name of the store, Heart Talk, in the space.

Lin Yunguo’s writing was bold and powerful, and in order to make it eye-catching, Su Jin specially chose red paint for the lettering. With the red characters set against the brown wooden plaque, it indeed looked simple yet dignified.

The interior layout was largely the same as the old store, with several tables and chairs at the very back for multipurpose use.

The whole family was helping out in the middle of the store, with Mao Qiqi and Lian Jiyue sitting at a table at the back, watching the busy family.

Even Su Jin and Lu Hao got busy; they had not anticipated the Heart Talk branch, which had not been advertised at all, would attract so many customers.

It seemed that opening a Heart Talk branch here was the right choice.

The passing security team members were also surprised to see the Heart Talk store opened right at their doorstep.

“Hahaha, the Heart Talk store is really adorable. Did they open here with the idea of basking in the shade of a big tree?”

One of the team members laughed, amused that someone dared to open a store right at the security team’s doorway.

“Even if we’re a big tree, they’re not exactly little sprouts. Haven’t you seen the cactuses beside the doorway? They don’t look like herbivores to me,”

Another team member commented, pointing at the cactuses that looked tall and imposing. It was clear to see that this was Su Jin’s handiwork—they were dealing with a big shot!

“I also think that opening here is a good idea. After we get our pay, we can go in for a feast. I heard they even sell alcohol!”

The excited words of one of the team members instantly resonated with a few of the younger ones. Alcohol—they hadn’t had any in a long time.

“Work’s not keeping you busy?”

Ye Rongxin walked out from the security team, looking coldly at the circle of members.

“Ye, Ye leader, we’re heading out right now!”

The group quickly fell in line and marched toward the center of the base.

Ye Rongxin glanced at the newly opened Heart Talk Store, and although Liang Jiuhui had already mentioned it to him, he never expected the store to open for business so soon.

But indeed, as the team members had just said, having a store open at the security team’s doorstep was truly endearing…

To outsiders, Mao Qiqi and Lian Jiyue seemed to be sitting in silence, but their conversation never stopped, with Qiqi doing most of the talking.

“Xiao Yue, let me tell you, we’re really poor right now, so Sister Xiao Jin and brother-in-law opened a new store to make lots and lots of crystal cores,”
