Chapter 433 Not Accepted
I don't know why, but this was the first thought that came to my mind.
Although he had always thought that she was calm and distant, not like a human being, the look in her eyes just now instantly broke through the barriers of his thoughts -
He was deceived by the appearance she presented.
"Did you hear everything I said?"
The slender white hand waved in front of his eyes, and Chu Wanfu suddenly came back to his senses.
The pretty young boss in front of me seemed worried, but her true emotion didn't show in her eyes.
She was just getting impatient and urging him on.
Chu Wanfu took a deep breath silently, calming his mind, "Okay, let's do it here."
"Okay." Xia Yan replied, "Now that the location is determined, we should talk about the building..."
Chu Wanfu took out the architectural drawings that he had rushed out overnight (with only slight changes to the original template) and handed them to Xia Yan.
There are three buildings in total, two inpatient buildings and one outpatient building. The remaining area has no marked use.
"System, please scan and see what the appropriate charge is for a building."
Proper use of plug-ins can make your life half easier.
Xia Yan seemed to be looking at the drawings carefully, but his mind was actually flying away.
【Hold on】
[After inspection, the recommended price is 5 million points per building]
'Thanks. '
Xia Yan put down the blueprints, looked at Chu Wanfu and said, "The fee for each building is 10 million points, 30 million points for three buildings. Everything except the medical equipment will be prepared for you. You can open the business right away."
Sorry, the system does not accept the suggested price.
Even though Chu Wanfu was prepared, he was still shocked by the price.
It’s not expensive, it’s too cheap!
In the past, one building would require hundreds of millions of dollars, and few large companies would bid for three buildings without more than a billion dollars. Now it only requires tens of millions of points?
Chu Wanfu really wanted to laugh out loud.
"It's settled, I'll pay you a deposit? Do you want to sign a contract or something to protect us?" Chu Wanfu spoke a long string of words quickly, fearing that she would see through the situation and go back on her word.
It's not like she hasn't done this before anyway.
Xia Yan's face was full of a scornful expression, "No need. I'll start work as soon as the points payment arrives."
Chu Wanfu immediately said that he would go and collect the points now, and turned around and left with his long legs.
Xia Yan was left alone, disheveled in the wind.
She always took advantage of others, but now she felt like she was being taken advantage of. Could her markup be fake? It was double the price given by the system.
A group of people gathered in the center of the square not far away, their heads raised, nervously watching the scrolling screen to see if a familiar face would appear. If a heart-wrenching scream or sob suddenly sounded, everyone in the field would cast envious glances—
Great to have found my family.
Just then, Xia Yan saw several survivors wrapped in black burqas. They walked towards an empty area on the beach, then took off their burqas, revealing patches of reddish-brown scars on their pale bodies, like overlapping blooming roses, with not a single piece of healthy flesh to be seen.
The thin white man in the lead took out disinfectant, asked his companions to lie on the recliners, wet a cotton swab with it, and then gently applied it to the wound.
Only then did Xia Yan recognize that they were Zhang Yaya and her group, who were anxious to be discharged from the hospital some time ago as their injuries had not yet healed.
It seems that they followed the doctor's advice and came together to bask in the sun in the morning when the sun was not so strong.
Zhang Yaya is not a bad person by nature. It can even be said that the cruelty of the end of the world and the hardships of the living environment have not erased the kindness in his heart. Whether it was the light that Zhang Yaya silently raised when she was walking down the stairs in the dark, or the thank-you gift he specially sent her when he was discharged from the hospital after their "quarrel".
All of this shows that his kindness is hidden under the black burqa.
But the strange thing is that he only reveals his kindness a little bit under the protection of the burqa. Without the burqa, he becomes like a skinned, soft hedgehog.
Xia Yan shifted her gaze to look at the tranquil sea. Against the backdrop of the boundless sky, the waves seemed even more sparkling, just like the feeling Zhang Yaya gave her.
"Zhang Yaya."
The group of people lying on the beach hurriedly straightened their bodies, trying to reach the clothes beside them with their arms unable to straighten, trying to cover up their body deformities.
At any time, physical inconvenience will give people a psychological feeling of being at a disadvantage and easily manipulated.
Zhang Yaya put on a burqa, comforted her companions, and then dragged her inconvenient legs, one foot deep and one foot shallow, towards Xia Yan who had his back to her.
"You looking for me?"
His unique smoky voice sounded behind him.
Xia Yan didn't turn around, his voice was full of laughter: "How is the recovery? Is it still effective?"
Zhang Yaya opened her hands, hidden under her burqa, to prevent the precious medicine from being rubbed off by her clothes.
"Much better."
After thinking about it, he explained his decision to leave the hospital before his injury healed: "We originally planned to listen to you and stay here until our injuries are better before going back, but more and more people need to be hospitalized, and there are not enough wards. Even the corridors are full of people lying down.
It looked much worse than ours. After some thought, we figured the acid rain had stopped, so we just went back to recuperate. But we also came here every day to bask in the sun and take our medicine on time..."
He spoke faster as he spoke, as if he was afraid that Xia Yan would be unhappy.
Zhang Yaya stared at her intently with his eyes hidden under his burqa, his heart beating so fast that it was about to jump out. He couldn't explain why he was so afraid of a stranger getting angry. Perhaps, a kind-hearted person couldn't bear to see someone who cared about him sad?
That feeling of guilt can drive you crazy.
But, she doesn't look like...
Xia Yan interrupted him gently, "Doctor Sang has told me that she admires you very much. When the hospital on the island opens in a while, you don't have to go back until you are fully healed."
"A hospital is going to be opened on the island?!" Zhang Yaya shouted in surprise.
"Well, I'll save a spot for you then. Don't go back to that place. It's too damp and cold, and it's not good for your joints. Or, if necessary, I can help you find a place to work."
Xia Yan's attention was all focused on the black robe that appeared in the corner of his sight.
She had never crossed the line in trying to help others like this before. Maybe it was for that ball of light, or maybe it was for that precious thank you gift, but in short, she just wanted to do this.
"Well...I'm so sorry."
"It's okay, it's just a piece of cake." Xia Yan looked at the gathering clouds, their edges like a soft cake slowly collapsing, gradually being swallowed by the azure blue. "Did you see the snack street when you came here? They're looking for tenants. If you're interested, just go to the rental department and handle the paperwork."
Zhang Yaya understood the meaning of her words, her mouth gradually opened wider, and a compelling look gradually bloomed in her eyes.
"I saw it all. I did have this idea, but I was worried..."
