Chapter 10

Wha…what???

Shi Jiu looked at the prompt in front of her. Not only could she play the simulated business, but now she could also play the physical business, right?

【Confirm upgrade】【Cancel upgrade】

In addition to these two options, there's a note below: If the production building is transferred to reality, most functions can still be controlled using a tablet. Production robots will consume power instead of consuming stamina, allowing for long-term use in reality. Known unavailable features: Agricultural and sideline products that do not affect the operation of production robots must be harvested manually.

Shi Jiu was a little confused after reading this explanation. It meant that in reality, the two production robots only needed to be charged and could be used continuously without having to worry about their durability.

This is a great advantage. After all, no one knows whether two more robots can be drawn from the lottery pool next time. She has to keep an eye on the virtual simulation business without the help of robots, which is not a long-term solution.

These products will definitely be very useful. Now that the farms and ranches are established, it is normal to have more restaurants in the future. After all, in addition to being able to take out the food directly, there is also an option that has no way to get it for the time being, which may be to provide ingredients for the future.

But the unavailable function requires manual harvesting, could it be like eggs?

The chicks can lay eight eggs in eight consecutive hours without affecting the production robots from feeding them. There is also one chicken cage for each chick, which has a large space and does not affect the lack of space to store the eggs they lay.

After Shi Jiu thought it through, he didn't find it difficult. After all, it was just collecting eggs. He could just accumulate some time to collect them in a day. If that didn't work, there were still employees behind him.

She firmly believed that as long as she upgraded, the summoning ticket could be used and her employees would soon be able to share her worries.

"Then let's upgrade." Shi Jiu nodded to confirm the upgrade.

[This upgrade will cost a total of 100 crystal cores. Do you want to pay? ]

Well, the crystal cores have reached double digits again. Shi Jiu saw that the condition for upgrading from level 1 to level 2 was to serve 25 people. It seemed that he really had to wait and see if he could attract customers. He had to earn crystal cores quickly, otherwise he would become a pauper again.

After paying the crystal core, Shi Jiu saw a door appear between the room on the right and the public toilet, with four big words "Production Building" written on it.

After opening the door and entering, two glass houses appeared inside the door. There was a farm on the left and a pasture on the right, exactly the same as the virtual ones.

There are six plots of land on the farm. The seeds were planted before and there was no time to replenish them, so nothing has been planted yet. However, the layout inside really has a background of blue sky and white clouds, as well as mountains and water. When you look at it from the outside, you might think it is just a background board.

Shi Jiu opened the door and walked in. A breeze blew on his face. He took a deep breath of fresh air, which was also scented with the fragrance of grass.

The silver-white production robot is right next to the door, with a circular wireless charger on the back. The robot can be charged directly by attaching it to the charging port on the wall.

She went to the ranch next door. The background was similar. There was just a large grassland with two chicken coops placed carelessly in the middle. There was a feeding trough next to it. The two chicks were not confined to the coops. They were still strolling around eating feed. They might go back to the coop when they were about to lay eggs.

She took the basket at the door and took out the eggs laid by the chickens. Of course, you can also set a time, such as taking out all the eggs before going to bed every night. The maximum number of eggs that can be stored in a chicken coop is 8.

After taking it out, Shi Jiu returned to the lobby to prepare to upgrade the hotel room and add some seeds to grow vegetables.

Let's add the five single rooms first. After Shi Jiu clicked to upgrade the room, the area of ​​the hall in front of him seemed to have become larger. There were five rooms on each side, 101-105 on one side and 106-110 on the other.

After the rooms are added, you can add some supplies.

Shi Jiu first took out the small fluorescent blackboard that cost 5 crystal cores. Although it was called a small blackboard, it was actually not small. It was 1 meter long and 0.8 meters high. There was a magnetic suction on the back, so it could be hung on the wall.

She wrote down the accommodation prices on the blackboard, charged per person. Of course, the better the room, the higher the price. But now there are only first-tier rooms, so there is no choice.

It wrote down 10 crystal cores per person per day (single room), and then wrote down the long-term task that required a huge investment. Spending 500 crystal cores would give you a space bracelet, which could be stacked. Finally, it wrote the following precautions below: No disputes or fights were allowed in the hotel, and the hotel had the right of all interpretations.

After finishing writing, Shi Jiu checked it and hung it on the wall above the counter.

Originally there were only two rooms at the back and there wasn't enough space. After the upgrade, the area was expanded and the two rooms were moved to both sides, leaving a space in the middle.

Shi Jiu stood in front of the counter and took a look, and felt that there was nothing wrong.

Suddenly, a strange question occurred to her, "Shouldn't this be the age of electronic technology? Why are we still using fluorescent blackboards?"

Although this board is not small, the electronic screen is still more convenient and faster. She looked up and saw the tattered wooden door at the door, and then looked at the super large water dispenser and the super smart vending machine next to it. So, is this called semi-electronic?

Shi Jiu thought about it for a while, and finally let himself go. Maybe after upgrading in the future, it could be fully electronic.

Things are pretty good now. I don't have to deliver the goods myself, and I don't have to plant and harvest most things myself. I just have to pick up eggs every night. When I think about it this way, I feel quite relaxed.

Shi Jiu continued to arrange the room and moved the TV to the wall, right in front of the sofa so that she could see it even when she was sitting at the counter.

Then she went to the mall and bought five room cards, and asked for fifty of each type of seeds. She originally wanted to buy more land and chicken coops, but she knew that now she could only buy six pieces of land and two chicken coops at most. When she bought it last night, she accidentally bought the current maximum amount.

After everything was sorted out, it was almost noon. Shi Jiu, who had just had brunch, was not that hungry yet, but he was a little sleepy after tossing and turning. Alas, this is the trouble of young people today, not getting enough sleep every day.

The upgraded lobby is spacious and bright, and it takes some time to walk from the counter to the door.

Shi Jiu walked to the door and looked outside. Approaching the hotel would trigger automatic cleaning, even inside the hotel. As soon as the guests checked out, the room would be automatically cleaned, and Shi Jiu didn't need to do any cleaning work at all.

At first glance, the hotel is surrounded by shops and office buildings. We originally chose this area because it is a commercial district with convenient transportation, and there might be many people coming here to collect supplies.

It seems that the area is large and provides her with a lot of conveniences. She currently has a farm and a ranch, and it is unknown what kind of store will be unlocked in the future.

Shi Jiu leaned against the door, hesitating whether to go out. In the hotel, she could still have the protection of the system, but if she went outside and left the hotel, it would be hard to say, because the hotel's scope could not be expanded to the entire commercial district.

She could only hang around the door for a while, standing about half a meter away. She looked up at her sign, but it didn't glow as brightly in the daytime as it did at night. It was drowned out by the shops and the surrounding areas were all empty, making it difficult to see.

She lowered her head and pondered for a long time. The system didn't provide any useful tools, such as loud speakers or advertisements flying all over the sky. Suddenly, she saw the rubbish next to her and her eyes lit up.

At noon, Gao Ziang and Meng Xingzheng were observing the situation around them from a corner of the commercial district, looking around vigilantly.

"Brother Gao, do we really have to go in? This is not a residential area. What if there are more zombies?" Meng Xingxiu asked the person next to him in a low voice.

"Then do you have any other better ideas?" Gao Ziang lowered his voice and asked him. If possible, would he choose such a risky place?

Meng Xingxiu didn't say anything else. He had no right to choose the place. If he didn't find food to go back today, he would be kicked out of Ping'an Base tonight.

They observed for a while, and after confirming that there were no zombies around, they carefully crawled in through the broken hole below.

There is no way. The square is too big. There is no shelter when entering from the front. If you are not careful, you will find someone delivering food. Although the dog hole is not very beautiful, this corner has a wide view and there is a retreat at the back.

The two men landed on the ground like cats and moved forward quietly, afraid of making any noise. They moved forward bit by bit, leaning against the wall. The surrounding shops had been searched over and over again countless times during the previous rounds of looting. The broken doors, shattered glass, and the empty interior with only garbage and shelves told them that the supplies they wanted were not here.

The two of them wandered around the edge like headless flies, but didn't dare to go to the middle. All they saw were broken walls and ruins.

"Brother Gao, there's nothing here!" Meng Xingxiu was a little disappointed. It didn't look like there were any supplies here.

"Let's go to the convenience store in front." Gao Ziang stared at the front and gestured with his chin to look at a self-operated convenience store in front. Although the outside looked destroyed, he had seen his friends loading goods there before and knew that in addition to the ordinary warehouse, they also had a secret door that was locked tightly.

He held the key tightly in his hand, as it was his only hope. He thought of the last time he saw his friend, and also of his family struggling in the base, having to humiliate themselves every day for a little food and drink, with no dignity at all.

"I must succeed..." He had no choice but to succeed.

The two men held the iron rods tightly in their hands, slowly moved over, and squatted in the corner of the convenience store entrance. This was the most useful weapon they had. They had no special abilities and could only rely on weapons and physical strength to deal with the zombies.

The area of ​​the self-operated convenience store is not small. After all, it is opened by himself, so he has to sell a little of everything. Moreover, it is located in this commercial district. So now that there is no electricity, it is pitch black inside, and a foul odor can be smelled when the wind blows.

"Brother Gao, there won't be any zombies in here, right?" Meng Xingxiu looked at the darkness in front of him. It was like the devil's huge mouth of the abyss. Once you go in, you can never get out.

Gao Ziang also felt a little panicked. His violently beating heart seemed to tell him that if he didn't leave, this would be their burial place.

"Xiao Meng, do you want to fight or not..." Gao Ziang took a deep breath and ignored his body's reaction. Going back would mean death, it was just a matter of how he died. It would be better to give it a try here.

Meng Xingxiu gritted his teeth and decided to fight. The worst that could happen was death. If he really had supplies, he could still survive for a while.

Just as the two were ready and about to go in, they heard the sound of debris being overturned from inside.

"Roar..." A skinny figure vaguely appeared in the darkness.
