By the later stages, this thing was absolutely top-notch, super cool!
Hats lined up in a row, there must have been over thirty of them, all for summer use, with mesh and visors.
Jhiang Yuan thought for a moment, and realized Xiao Nuan would definitely outgrow them before she could wear them all.
But now that there was space, she might as well pack them up, who knows, they might come in handy later.
Even if she had to exchange them with someone else for other goods, if she really couldn't keep them, throwing them out wouldn't be a big deal.
Hats don't take up much space, just stack them up one over the other.
There were basically two types, one was baseball caps, the other sun hats.
These toys weren't bad either, Xiao Nuan would probably like them. She grabbed a not-too-large strawberry bear and put it in her backpack, tossing the rest into the space.
There was a lot of stuff inside the surrounding cabinets too, packed full of various goods.
Jhiang Yuan also found quite a few cardboard boxes in front of the bar, those used for packing milk powder weren't small, and sure enough, she found some tape upon searching.
She set up the box and stuck all the sides up vertically, this way she could fit quite a lot more into them.
She regretted not putting all of the toys together earlier, but now wasn't the time to waste, she could sort it out when she got home.
The items in the cabinets filled up six cardboard boxes before they were crammed full.
Only the clothes were left, the clothes rack next to her was pretty good, she squeezed them all together, anything that didn't fit she would just throw into the space separately.
She decided to just take the two freestanding clothes racks with her as well.
Looking at the empty store, Jhiang Yuan was very satisfied, this feeling of a "Zero-Dollar Purchase" was thrilling.
After being busy for half a day, she was quite tired, and sat down at the bar to rest.
Even then, her hands were not idle, the drawers on this side of the bar weren't locked, inside there was some loose change.
Jhiang Yuan counted it, around two hundred thirty-two yuan in total, including coins.
Nowadays everyone uses mobile payments, it's normal to have so little cash, she took it anyway, just in case it might be useful.
She casually put it in her pocket, there was also half a pack of rose tea and two bars of fat-loss fruit powder on top, she collected every bit, couldn't miss any of it.
In the bottom drawer, there were some everyday items; a pair of scissors, half a roll of tape, six rolls of printer receipt paper, half a pack of tissue paper, two ball pens, a ruler, and two ledgers.
One of the ledgers had already been mostly used, there were also two books about infant care.
Jhiang Yuan thought that during extreme cold, they could be used to start a fire, so she decisively packed them away.
There was also a piece of women's clothing that likely belonged to the store owner, she thought about it and decided not to take it.
"Clang..." Hmm, something's there?
Jhiang Yuan quickly picked up the clothing to check, and indeed found a paper bag made of cowhide in the pocket.
Wow, it turned out to be twenty thousand yuan, surely hidden there. She threw it into the space.
Looking at the shop that she had "stripped bare", she felt very satisfied.
But, she always felt something was missing. What could it be?
Just as she was about to leave, a thought suddenly struck her.
Diapers!
A maternity store without diapers was indeed very strange.
But the place was this size, and everything was in plain sight, where could they be?
Jhiang Yuan got excited and began to scrutinize everything carefully.
Sure enough, she noticed a gap in the corner of the wall directly across, hardly noticeable without careful observation.
Upon closer examination, she discovered the secret there.
Turns out, there was a hidden door, because the background was the same and it was on a flat surface, normally hidden by clothing, it was completely unnoticeable.
It wasn't locked, so she opened it directly.
Indeed...
Inside was a small storeroom, not too big, resembling a corridor.
Aside from diapers, there were boxes and boxes of milk powder.
This was a major treasure trove, and Jhiang Yuan began to move them non-stop...
In total, there were fifty-one boxes of diapers and thirty-six boxes of milk powder, truly thrilling...
Checking the time, it was already half-past eleven, and her mom had sent several WeChat messages.
Jhiang Yuan hurriedly replied to her, reassuring her.
Then she left the maternity store, tidied up the rolling shutter, making it look as if nothing had happened.
Actually, just fifty meters from this corner, there was a larger shopping supermarket.
Spanning two floors, it was considered a bustling spot around here.
But she couldn't head there now, as the doors there were more sophisticated, triggering an alarm if there was electricity.
It was her goal for later, but the vegetable store right at the main entrance, she couldn't pass up.
This store had always touted itself as a boutique.
The goods sold were somewhat pricier, but the quality was indeed good.
There were vegetables, fruits, grains, oils, seasonings, and there were two large refrigerators at the door, filled with drinks.
It was said that the owner had set up shops in many communities and ran a chain.
He also had special channels for procurement, so there definitely were goods inside, and the group had mentioned earlier that this place was open.
She decided to knock on the door first, to make sure no one was there, then proceed.
Today she was dressed all in gray, not only was visibility low, but even if it wasn't, it would be hard to spot her in such stormy weather.
The store was relatively large, about fifty square meters in size.
Inside, there indeed were vegetables. She still pulled down the rolling door, turned on the light, and carefully checked the store to make sure everything was fine before starting to look at the supplies.
What caught her eye first were some fruits and vegetables. The weather had been cold these past few days, so they hadn't spoiled and weren't even fully stocked to begin with.
What remained wasn't much, just a few hundred pounds worth.
Jhiang Yuan looked around, and now, touching her bracelet, she could sense the situation inside the space.
Since there were places around, she first targeted the grains and oils.
There were fifteen bags of rice weighing a hundred pounds each, sixty bags of twenty pounds each, and the most were one hundred thirty bags of ten pounds each.
There weren't many brands, all stacked up against the wall on the east side, probably lots of people had come to buy that day.
There wasn't much flour; here in the northwest, flour-based foods were more popular.
There were three bags of a hundred pounds each, six bags of fifty pounds each, twenty-three bags of ten pounds each, with none weighing twenty pounds.
Additionally, there were probably twenty to thirty bunches of dragon beard noodles and hanging noodles, which she took directly.
Peanut oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, and blended oil totaled fifty-two cans.
She didn't overlook the remaining seasonings, although not many, but something was better than nothing.
After everything was set, Su Qing began to pack the fruits and vegetables into food bags.
The fruits were just apples and pears, with only a few bunches of bananas.
The vegetables were more varied, including cabbage, radishes, green bamboo shoots, lotus roots, potatoes, and many bell peppers.
She picked the fruits first since there were fewer of them, leaving behind a bunch of bananas to put in her backpack later.
Then it was time for the vegetables, focusing on bell peppers and green bamboo shoots, lotus roots, and then the cabbages.
Although it was a "Zero-Dollar Purchase," it was still physically demanding, and she rarely exercised, so she was quite tired now.
"Who's there?"
