Chapter 242 - 242: Shopping Wholesale and a Buffet (Part 3)
They were not only life-saving “medicine” to replenish their energy, but they were also “money” that could be exchanged for various things. The more crystal cores they have, the more confidence they would have.
Tang Mingchu didn’t say anything else, and he immediately poured out a pile of snacks to make space. “Give me! I swear I’ll make the crystal cores plump!”
Tang Susu glanced at the T3 crystal cores. It was indeed plumper than the low-level crystal cores.
However, Mr. Tang was one step ahead of him and put them into his pocket dimension. “I’m worried about leaving them with you. I’ll help you keep one. If you want more crystal cores, you can get them from me.”
Tang Mingzhou took the remaining one. He now had a superpower. Although he had never shown his desire for meat in front of everyone, he actually consumed quite a lot of crystal cores.
However, when Tang Susu wanted to share some of her crystal cores with them, they all stopped her.
“Save them for us. We’ll find our own crystal cores and keep them for immediate use.”
“Then, we have to distribute these now,” Tang Susu said with a smile as she pointed at the “spoils of war” that she had spent so much time shopping for.
They immediately got busy. As usual, they would leave the majority with Susu. Meanwhile, in the spirit of fairness, the others took ten talismans of each type, two pills of each type, and twenty bottles of each type of nutrient solution and healing serums.
Everyone put aside a portion for Mrs. Tang. She could put it into her pocket dimension later.
In the blink of an eye, it was already nighttime. The full moon had just risen, and the welcoming feast that Mrs. Tang had carefully prepared was officially ready.
Tang Susu looked at her brothers walking back and forth like waiters in a restaurant and serving the dishes elegantly. She never expected that tonight’s dinner would be a buffet.
The four-compartment hotpot had enough ingredients for the soup stock. There was butter soup, tomato soup, mushroom soup, and spicy soup to satisfy everyone’s taste.
Next to it was a huge grilling plate connected to a generator. Mr. Tang easily installed it, so no one else had to worry about it.
Tang Susu was in charge of arranging the dishes they brought over.
The large round table that was previously used for eating was already filled with the hotpot and grilling plates. Tang Susu asked Mr. Tang to move all the tables from the other rooms and place them in various places in the hall. They arranged it according to a buffet restaurant’s layout.
Other than the various meat and vegetable dishes for hotpot and barbecue, there were also various desserts, cakes, milk tea, puddings, fried rice, fried noodles, cold dishes, and fried chicken. There were also various utensils, such as chopsticks and chopsticks prepared beside them.
They had prepared so much for the feast. Their family was doing well, and they wanted to benefit the surrounding people occasionally.
Tang Susu went to call their guests. Apart from Uncle Wei, Cheng Cheng, and her daughter, she also invited Bai Yanhui along.
Tang Mingqi had gotten along well with him, which meant that he was not a bad person.
It just so happened that Tang Susu also had the intention of recruiting him into the team. It would depend on whether he had the qualifications to advance further.
It was late at night. On their way here with flashlights, they encountered Lu Yunxiang and Mr. Duan, who came to thank them with supplies in hand. Members of the Wind Squad who had gathered enough Crystal Cores to buy their vegetables were also there.
Tang Susu was speechless.
“Since you’re already here, let’s go in together.”
Because her mother prepared nothing too exaggerated and revealing, Tang Susu thought that there wasn’t anything to hide. It just so happened that she was interested in befriending these people.
Xie Fei naturally wouldn’t say no. Just as he was about to lift his foot, he was pulled back by his captain. “We won’t go in. We’ll come back tomorrow to buy the groceries. I’ll give you the crystal cores first.”
Tang Susu looked at the man with the crew cut in surprise. He looked handsome and stood straight like a soldier, giving off an aura of righteousness.
The aroma of their food was so strong that anyone passing by could definitely smell it. His words made her feel much better. He did not deliberately pick this time to come here.
Mr. Duan, Lu Yunxiang, naturally put down their things and were about to leave. The two of them had originally come to mend their relationship. That was why they didn’t want to make her misunderstand their intention.
Besides, they came from Qingzhou Shelter with a lot of supplies. Lu Yunxiang was a Chlorokineticist, so she was able to be self-sufficient.
“Wait, come in.” As she said this, Tang Susu called Bai Yanhui over. “Call Zuo Xun and Lin Yi over too.”
Bai Yanhui was speechless. Did he look like an errand boy? When had he ever been ordered around by anyone?
Tang Susu then added, “And the other managers.”
“Fine. It’s the end of the world. Anything is possible.” He stretched his limbs and put on a solemn expression before he went to run errands.
Wei Chunhua was shocked. He had always had the feeling that the Tang family was close to the outside world. It was normal. Many people in the apocalypse were like this, but it was also a little abnormal because the Tang family had enough confidence.
Wei Chunhua had no doubt that those who were powerful, discreet, and cautious could survive until the end. However, they would also occasionally feel a little tired since they had to always be careful in their actions despite clearly having the right to be arrogant and happy.
However, Tang Susu deviated from her usual style and adopted a high-profile attitude tonight!
She generously invited the other eight people in. The Wind Squad was at the back, unable to remain as calm as Wei Chunhua, Lu Yunxiang, and the others.
Especially when the fragrance was getting richer and richer. They knew that there would be an enormous table of delicious food there that might be unimaginably valuable.
As expected, appearing in front of everyone’s eyes was a main hall that had been decorated like a restaurant’s dining hall. Food was prepared at the side, just like at a buffet restaurant.
They stopped in their tracks. It felt like a lifetime ago when they had really walked into a Chinese-style buffet restaurant.
Wei Chunhua was also stunned.
He knew that the Tang family had someone with plant-type powers, and he also suspected that they had someone with space-type power. Otherwise, they wouldn’t know so much about them. However, what he saw in front of him still amazed him.
“God, I think I should go,” Lu Yunxiang exclaimed at the side, feeling that she really didn’t have the right to be there. Moreover, she wanted to maintain an equal status when she had a dialogue with them.
The Wind Team also turned around silently. Although they were eager to rush in and eat, their rationality held them back.
“How about this? Each of you can pay us a T2 crystal core. Treat it as your meal ticket and this place as a buffet restaurant.”
Tang Susu smiled and said sincerely, “We don’t lack supplies, but we do lack crystal cores.”
Tang Mingzhou, Tang Mingqi, and Tang Mingchu were speechless..
