Chapter 38

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Looking at the now harmonious group chat, Brother Long, who had been arrogant just a moment ago, remained silent.

‘Damn it! I thought he was easy to bully. I didn’t expect to provoke a hidden big shot! Not only that, but I also offended the original big shot in the group! This is bad! They won’t seek revenge from me in the future, right?’

Brother Long could not help but feel nervous when he thought about this, and he began to sweat profusely. After a moment, he thought it was best to leave the group chat. After all, he had never exposed his name. Perhaps, if the big shot forgot about him, he would be able to avoid future trouble.

…

At the same time, Li An, who was next to Su Can, laughed.

“How funny!”

“What’s wrong?” Su Can asked as he looked at the laughing Li An in confusion.

“That arrogant Brother Long has already left the group chat!”

“So fast?” Su Can raised his eyebrows.

“Of course. He’s probably too embarrassed to face the others.”

“Well, that’s good,” Su Can said with a nod.

Just as Su Can was about to close the group chat, he received a message from a person using the picture of a sheep as a profile picture.

“Boss, can you give me some supplies? I feel like you have a lot of canned food. Can you give me some?”

Su Can replied, “Sure, I’ll give you one more chance. If any of you praise me now, I’ll give you three cans.”

Su Can glanced at the list of participants in the group chat. There were about 40 to 50 in the group chat. At most, he would have to send out 150 cans at most. To him, this number was nothing. He could treat it as a charity.

The other party replied, “Only three cans? That’s too little! Boss, from the photo you sent, it’s clear that the canned food is only a small portion of what you own. You must have a lot of canned food, right? Can’t you give us more? Is it difficult to give each of us a 100? That’s nothing to you, right?”

Su Can was rendered speechless by this message.

‘This guy is a top freeloader. I said I’d give three for free, but it’s still not enough for him. How dare he ask so much from me? I haven’t even said anything about him mocking me earlier…’

Su Can had no intention of indulging this kind of disgusting person.

“No. Just three per person. You can negotiate with the others if you want more, but I’m only giving this much.”

The other party quickly replied, “Boss, you’re too stingy! Based on what you’ve shown, you clearly have a lot of canned food, right? What’s wrong if you give me a hundred? You’ll still live well during the apocalypse even without these hundred cans, right? However, if I have a hundred cans of canned food, I’ll be able to survive for a long time during the apocalypse. Saving a life is a good thing, right? I really didn’t prepare as many supplies compared to you. Boss, please help me a little on account of how pitiful I am.”

Looking at the messages, Li An could not help but complain, “F*ck, where did this shameless freeloader come from?”

Due to circumstances, there were not many people willing to sell their supplies, let alone give them away for free. Su Can had already offered to give the other party three cans, but the other party was shameless enough to say such words and ask for more.

Su Can said to Li An with a shrug, “This person likes to play the victim, and he thinks everyone is obligated to help him. He thinks I’ll give in, but I won’t.”

A few rational people replied at this moment as well.

“Brother, don’t cross the line.”

“Even if you want to ask for more, you shouldn’t expect it to be given to you for free.”

“That’s right.”

“Moreover, the boss is already so kind as togive us three cans for free. It’s really inappropriate for you to ask for more…”

Not only did the other party not feel the slightest bit of guilt after being reprimanded, but he became even more energetic.

“But he has so much? So what if he gives me more? I’m not prepared at all! Everything’s almost sold out in the supermarkets. Are you just going to watch me starve to death? I knew it. Everyone here is vicious!”

At this time, the big shot rubbed his temples and looked at the messages helplessly. He did not expect things to develop in this direction. He replied, “Alright, stop arguing. The apocalypse is coming so we shouldn’t fight among ourselves. If you’re worried about starting, you can go to the country’s shelter…”

After that, the big shot sent a video. It showed many workers building a shelter underground.

“If you’re worried, just sign up. If you’re selected, you’ll be well protected. Your problem will be solved as well.”

Upon reading this message, the shameless person turned around and began to flatter the big shot.

“Boss! Since you’re able to record a video of the construction of the shelter, does that mean you have some connection to the government? Can you give me a place to stay?”

The big shot replied curtly, “You’ll have to apply for it like everyone else. After the construction is completed, you can sign up online, and you’ll be selected by drawing lots. Even my family only got four places. If you want to stay in the shelter, you can only pray that you have good luck.”

“Boss, I can give you money!”

“Save it! Didn’t you see the discussion earlier? Some people even offered more than 20 million yuan, but they still didn’t get a spot. You better hurry up and sign up.”

At the same time, Su Can nodded silently when he saw the big shot’s messages. Alas, even if the shelter was being built now, it would not be able to save anyone. There were fewer than ten days before the apocalypse arrived. Based on the progress, the construction would only be half completed when the apocalypse arrived. In fact, it was already considered very fast.

Thinking about this, Su Can suddenly felt a little regretful.
