Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

When Chen Huairen heard Shi An'an say that he had gained weight, he continued cheerfully, "It's all thanks to you taking us in that we can live such a good life in Guangming Town. We have food and drink here, and a summer house. If I had lived in the county town before, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to live such a comfortable life!"

This is not something Chen Huairen said just to flatter Shi Anan, but his true feelings.

Let’s talk about food and drink first. Although he had never lacked for food when he was in the county town, the variety was not as rich as here. For example, sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, watermelons, etc., are said to be Guangming Town’s own specialties.

Moreover, the canteen chefs here are excellent cooks. Some of the dishes are so fancy that he has never seen them before even though he has been to so many restaurants. Not to mention that there is actually a vending machine here. The snacks sold in it are something he has never heard of before, and the precious ice cream can also be bought and sold at will.

You know, ice is very expensive at this time. In addition, the weather this year is so hot that he can only use it if he has a lot of stock. If it were outside, it would be out of stock. But in Guangming Town, they directly made ice into food, and there is no limit on the quantity.

In addition, what surprised him even more was the existence of the summer house, which was much more comfortable than the study room he had stayed in before, which was cooled down by a large amount of ice. Not only was the temperature more suitable, it was also dry.

Moreover, he can use it with so many people. When he is bored, he can eat some melon seeds and chat, and then make a cup of tea. He enjoys this life very much.

Not only that, some of Guangming Town’s systems also made him feel very humane. For example, the one about free schooling was something that not every leader would have the courage to do.

The knowledge of this era has always been in the hands of a few people. Due to the limitations of paper books, some precious books are completely out of reach for children from poor families. It is said that everyone can take the imperial examination, but how many people are truly from poor families and can pass the examination without relying on external forces?

Not to mention those miracles, just because of the fact that Guangming Town is not shy about knowledge, he is willing to stay here. This will benefit his descendants.

He was originally thinking about how to get Shi Anan to agree to let him stay, but he heard the news on the loudspeaker that people from Qinghe County also had the opportunity to settle in Guangming Town. This was an opportunity he had to seize at all costs.

Meeting Shi An An today was purely accidental, but since he met him, he wanted to thank him properly, so the scene just now happened.

When Shi Anan heard Chen Huairen praising Guangming Town, she also felt proud, because this was her home that she had developed bit by bit!

"I'm glad that Master Chen is doing well. Now that the chaos in Qinghe County has subsided, does Master Chen plan to go and take a look?"

Chen Huairen nodded without hesitation: "When Qinghe County was still Qinghe County, I planned to stay here forever and never go back. Now that Qinghe County is under your jurisdiction, I can go back and take a look. I wonder how my old friends are doing."

After all, Qinghe County is Chen Huairen's home, and Shi Anan also understands his choice. What he said is right. Now Qinghe County also belongs to Guangming Town. Sooner or later, she will completely replace the name of Qinghe County with Guangming County. I believe that the people will also be happy to see it happen.

"Then Master Chen can go back in a while. I have already asked people to build a road to Qinghu Bridge. When it is completed, you can take my bus and reach Qinghe County in less than half an hour."

"That's great! To be honest, I'm a little reluctant to leave the canteen and vending machines here in Guangming Town, hahahaha." Chen Huairen's eyes lit up and he laughed.

He originally thought that it would be difficult to get snacks after returning to Qinghe County, but he didn't expect that traveling back and forth would be so convenient in the future.

Shi Anan added: "I have also had people build a canteen in Qinghe County, and I have also sent chefs here for training, and the dishes are the same. But snacks still need to be bought here, and I don't have any extra machines to put in Qinghe County for the time being."

She also wanted to put a vending machine in Qinghe County, after all, there were more people there, which meant she could earn more money. Unfortunately, she was cheated by the waiter before choosing a location. She thought the machine could be moved at will, but she didn't expect it to be fixed after the location was selected.

The waiter didn't even remind her and just added a small line of words to the pile of vending machine usage agreements that needed to be signed. There were so many agreements, and she was not a lawyer, so how could she read them carefully one by one? She was almost mad to death because of this matter.

But no matter how angry she was, she couldn't change the situation and she could only be forced to accept it.

But Chen Huairen had a different idea: "If Miss Shi can get us to Guangming Town and Qinghe County in less than half an hour, then it won't be difficult for me to find someone to buy snacks for me."

When she heard the words "buying on behalf of others", Shi An'an suddenly had an idea. She looked at Chen Huairen and asked, "I heard that Mr. Chen was a businessman before, right?"

"Yes, I used to be a grain merchant and I have some connections in the Lingnan area. But there are too many natural disasters now, and I don’t know how my old friends are doing. But if Miss Shi needs me, I can still do my best to help." Chen Huairen said.

As a businessman, she is now in need of someone who can help her run her business: "Master Chen, I have an idea."

"Because this vending machine cannot be moved, currently only people in Guangming Town know about the things sold here. But if Qinghe County and Guangming Town are connected by road in the future, I believe more and more people will come here, and more people will know about this vending machine."

"By then, even if I don't say anything, someone will think of the purchasing agent method you mentioned before. In fact, some people are already doing this now, but there is a risk. I'm afraid that someone will deliberately buy a large amount of snacks in Guangming Town and then resell them at a high price in Qinghe County or even outside, in order to make a profit and disrupt the market."

Shi Anan said that from ancient times to the present, people who trade goods or scalpers have never disappeared. After all, even if the transportation is developed, not everyone can come to Guangming Town to buy directly, so it is normal for purchasing agents or scalpers to emerge in the future.

Chen Huairen probably understood what she meant: "Miss, did you want to strictly control these resellers at that time?"

Shi Anan shook her head: "We must control it, but it's hard to avoid it completely. I want to find Master Chen to be my distributor."

"Dealer?" Chen Huairen looked at her with confusion. What did this mean?

"Yes, distributor. I will supply the goods in the snack machine to you, and you can sell them in Qinghe County, or even anywhere outside the county, but you have to use our Guangming Town as your signboard." Instead of letting other people react and become resellers, it would be better for her to do it herself. This way, she can at least let all the people who buy snacks know that these are products of their Guangming Village, and she can also serve a publicity purpose.
