The Rice Shop Owner runs a grain and oil wholesale store. When Su Xiaoxiao orders 100,000 jin of rice, he is shocked, his glasses almost falling off. After she explains it's for charity, he agrees and even adds an extra 1,000 jin for free. He is generous and trusting. Su Xiaoxiao warns him about the coming heavy rain, advising him to secure his warehouse. He smiles and thanks her, likely skeptical. He represents the ordinary merchants before the apocalypse.
