Chapter 68 Sorry, she is just a hotel owner

From now on, Xia Yan fell in love with the tactic of killing the chicken to scare the monkey.

Ever since Feng Tianxi's replay, the customers not only memorized the store rules carefully, but also looked at her with a hint of fear.

She nodded secretly with satisfaction. This was exactly the effect she wanted.

"Everyone has seen what happened to Feng Tianxi. Now Feng Bei still owes me three Level 2 crystal cores and is still out there killing zombies to pay off his debt. Don't worry, as long as you don't violate the store rules, we won't punish anyone arbitrarily."

"Everyone's been tired all day, so you probably haven't eaten yet, right? The restaurant is open now, so you can take a break and eat inside. But there's one rule: everyone must have a points card, so you can't share them, and you can't take them out. If you don't want to top up, you can buy a boxed lunch from the lunch machine."

When they heard that they had to recharge points, everyone's expressions changed unpredictably. They looked at each other and didn't dare to be the first to speak out.

"Boss Xia, can I go in and take a look?"

An adult male's voice rang out from the crowd, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

It's the customer at 206.

He has two children, one big and one small, but he is the only one who has a card, so it is normal to ask this question.

"Anyone with a points card can go in and have a look, but the restaurant only serves noodles right now. Customers who want to see the breakfast and lunch items will have to come back tomorrow."

Noodles? The instant kind?

After discussion, customers who have points cards plan to go and take a look first and then decide whether to apply for cards for their entire family.

The main problem is that they don't have many crystal cores accumulated. The food and water in the base are not cheap, and they have to work hard to save up the crystal cores. If the food in the restaurant is too expensive, they will have to settle for boxed meals.

Grandma Jiang left her two grandsons behind and walked in tremblingly. Her two grandsons' stomachs had been damaged by their frequent meals, and noodles were the best food for the stomach.

Xia Yan didn't follow in. He sat on the sofa and stared at the children.

Not long after, the people inside came out with a surprise.

"If you want to recharge, please go to the front desk yourself. If you have no points in your card in the future, please recharge by yourself." Don't bother her all the time, she is very busy.

Qi Hua still had a lot of first-level crystal cores in his hands, so he didn't say anything and just recharged his parents' points cards so that they wouldn't go hungry when he went out in the future.

Wang Yi, Li Qiang and Wang Xuewei all have stocks on hand, so there is no pressure at all to top up their family’s points cards.

And they can also team up to go out and kill zombies and collect crystal cores later.

With the help of Qi Hua's explanation, Grandma Jiang also topped up a points card for her two grandsons, and then turned around and took her two grandsons to eat beef noodles.

As soon as she entered, she was attracted by the aroma of noodles and couldn't wait to bring her grandson in to eat!

The young couple living in Room 208 also topped up their points card and went into the restaurant with everyone to have dinner.

Now the only people in the hall were those staying in single rooms.

The woman living in 207 was holding her child and crying softly, asking Xia Yan to allow her to bring the child in with her. She only had two level one crystal cores, and her husband had died on the road while trying to protect them...

After listening to her silently, Xia Yan shook his head apologetically and said, "Sorry, the store rules are the store rules and cannot be changed. You can buy food from the lunch machine or breakfast machine."

"As for the fact that you only have one crystal core left, you know I won't let you stay here if your card doesn't have enough to cover the room fee. So I sincerely suggest you go out and kill some zombies tomorrow. You're safe within two meters of the hotel."

The woman held her child in her arms and cried bitterly with a miserable look on her face, for her dead husband, for her young child, for this heart-wrenching doomsday, and for the future she could not see bright.

Sadness is like a flowing stream, slowly sweeping over innocent people. The thorns hidden in it find their way into the body through the dry cracks, attacking the soft internal organs with every breath.

Xia Yan didn't say anything and silently let them vent their frustrations.

After a while, she spoke again.

"I'm just a hotel owner. I don't have the heart to save the world, nor do I have the ability to do so. This small shop has food and drinks, and it's absolutely safe. The points redemption system also increases with the level of the crystal core. A level 2 crystal core can be exchanged for 500 points, and a level 3 crystal core can be exchanged for 2,000 points."

"If you only plan to rely on others, and want to survive at the expense of their pity... once the points in your card are used up, I will immediately kick you out and blacklist you. Never think of coming back!"

This was the first time Xia Yan spoke so much, and she hoped it would be the last time.

The woman gradually stopped crying and sat there stupidly holding the child, not knowing what she was thinking.

The old couple wiped away their tears, walked hand in hand to the lunch machine, bought a box lunch, and slowly went upstairs.

The father of his two children touched their heads lovingly, smiled and comforted them not to worry, saying that their father would support them even if the sky fell, and that life would get better day by day.

Xia Yan sighed silently, stood up and ordered a cumin duck leg fried rice from the lunch machine.

Really, why bother stirring up emotions? She didn't even have the mood to eat.

When he opened the lunch box, the unique aroma of cumin duck leg fried rice hit him. Xia Yan took a deep breath and his mood improved.

It turns out that delicious food can save your mood.

At this time, the woman who had been sitting stupidly on the ground finally stood up, kissed the child in her arms, walked slowly to the two machines, compared the prices, and finally chose the cheapest pancake in the breakfast machine.

She put the child on the ground and let her lean against the machine to prevent it from falling. She sat beside it exhausted, took out the hot pancake, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

"Eat...girl...open your mouth." The woman herself was exhausted, but still put the food in front of her child.

The girl was so hungry that she opened her mouth and took a big bite. She chewed it a few times and swallowed it down. The woman watched her and kept swallowing her saliva.

"Eat slowly, it's all yours."

The girl stopped eating only half of it and refused to open her mouth again, "Mom, you eat too."

"Mom is not hungry, you eat."

The girl turned her head away and dodged stubbornly.

"Okay, kid, Mommy's going to eat too. Let's eat together."

The woman wiped away her tears and took a bite. The familiar taste of the bread lingered in her mouth, making her appetite grow.

Really, delicious.

The girl couldn't persuade her mother, and in the end they shared the pancakes.

It only cost one point to get a glass of water. The woman handed the clean and transparent glass of water to the girl, and slowly and solemnly put the points card close to her body.

Just like Boss Xia said, as long as you work hard, you will definitely live a happier life than in the base. It's a pity that her husband died on the road and didn't get to see everything in the hotel with his own eyes.
