Natural disasters descended abruptly: torrential rain, extreme cold, and an ice age arrived.
In her previous life, Nan Ci took her four cats and followed the rescue team to a stadium. Her fou...
Chapter 153 Get in the car, you show the way
The contrast between the attitudes before and after is quite huge.
"A house with a yard? Yes! Of course. How big a yard do you want?"
Still have a choice?
Nan Ci was only slightly surprised, but soon calmed down.
Whether before or after the end of the world, privileges exist.
When facing different people, the options available will also be different.
After thinking for a while, Nan Ci said, "It would be better if the yard is bigger, about 100 square meters!"
Their RV is quite large, and with the sled for carrying supplies in the back, there is still some space for activities. The yard of about 100 square meters is just barely enough.
Nan Ci is not picky, as long as it can be used.
The staff member first agreed and then began to look for information.
Not long after, he raised his head again, "Got it! Found it! A yard of about 110 square meters, and three rooms, about 60 square meters in total, what do you think?"
The yard is almost twice as big as the house.
But Nan Ci didn't find it strange at all.
The weather is extremely cold right now. The bigger the room is, the harder it is to gather heat.
I haven’t seen those small ice houses, each of which is only a few dozen square meters. People standing inside can’t even straighten their backs.
Compared with those igloos, these three rooms are sixty square meters, which is already very large.
Nan Ci was quite satisfied, but did not agree directly.
If you agree to it without even seeing the actual condition of the house and yard, wouldn't you be being taken advantage of?
"Can I go and take a look?" Nan Ci asked.
"Yes! Of course! I'll take you there right away."
As he spoke, he shouted inside, and called another person out. After giving a few instructions, he came out from behind the counter.
"My last name is Zhang, you can just call me Xiao Zhang, let's go now!"
It was getting late, and Nan Ci didn't want to waste time, so he nodded and said, "Let's go! Is it far?"
"It's not too far. We'll be there in about half an hour."
After hearing Xiao Zhang's answer, Mu Qianqian, who had been silent the whole time, asked, "Driving for half an hour?"
Xiao Zhang was visibly stunned when he heard this. "Drive? Of course not, walk for half an hour."
At the end of his speech, Xiao Zhang's eyes were filled with bitterness.
A distance that takes half an hour to walk would only take ten minutes to drive in a car before the end of the world.
If it were faster, it wouldn't even take ten minutes.
But now, I can only think about it.
Xiao Zhang was sad for only a moment, then he quickly calmed down and smiled again, "But if you don't want to leave, there's someone to pull you--"
"We have a car, let's go."
"What?"
Xiao Zhang didn't even finish what he was going to say. He just stared at Nan Ci stupidly, "What did you say?"
"I said I have a car, let's go. It's getting dark, don't waste time."
Xiao Zhang originally thought that he missed his car too much, so he had hallucinations in his mind.
It was not until he heard Nan Ci's words again that Xiao Zhang was sure that he was not hallucinating, but that Nan Ci really said that she had a car.
Xiao Zhang, who had been particularly nice to Nan Ci and Mu Qianqian because they were dressed cleanly and warmly, was almost smiling from ear to ear.
There is a car!
What does it mean that you can still drive under the current conditions?
That would be equivalent to having a world-class sports car before the end of the world, worth more than a small goal.
Not only money, but also power.
Of course, you have to please this kind of person. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it forever.
Although Xiao Zhang didn't say anything, Nan Ci could guess what he was thinking just from his expression.
Nan Ci glanced at Xiao Zhang calmly and said, "Let's go. It's getting dark. Don't delay your get off work."
It’s not easy to be a worker, and it’s even harder to be a worker in the end times.
Nan Ci herself is not a worker, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t understand.
Xiao Zhang shook his head repeatedly when he heard this. "No delay, no delay, not at all. It's my honor to serve you."
I wonder how many people dream of showing a house with someone like this.
As long as the service is good, a little bit of liquid will slip through the other person's fingers, which will be enough for him to live a good life for a while.
With this thought in mind, Xiao Zhang's attitude was extremely humble as he followed Nan Ci and Mu Qianqian out.
But when he really walked out of the house and saw the RV parked outside and several sleds full of supplies pulled behind the RV, Xiao Zhang was still shocked.
“Is this your car?”
When Xiao Zhang asked, his voice was very low, as if he was afraid of disturbing Nan Ci.
Nan Ci nodded, "Yes, get in the car, you show the way."
"this"
Xiao Zhang was very nervous and a little embarrassed.
After hesitating for a while, Xiao Zhang swallowed and finally refused.
"Forget it. I'm pretty dirty. If I go up there, it'll be bad if I make the car dirty for you guys."
"Not really." Nan Ci said as he opened the car door, "Get in! How can you lead the way for us if you don't get in?"
“I can walk ahead”
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Zhang couldn't continue.
At this time, he also realized that leading the way on foot was really unreliable, and it was mainly a waste of Nan Ci and the others' time.
When Xiao Zhang looked over nervously, Nan Ci raised his chin and said, "Get in the car."
This time, Xiao Zhang didn't hesitate at all and got on the car.
The space in an RV is naturally much smaller than that of a normal room.
In addition, the RV was powered by a wood heater, so as soon as I entered, the heat hit me.
Feeling the warmth blowing towards him, Xiao Zhang was a little dazed. He had forgotten when was the last time he felt such warmth.
But Xiao Zhang did not lose the caution he had developed from the environment he had grown in. He quickly came to his senses, quickened his pace and took two steps inside, no longer blocking the door.
Nan Ci and Mu Qianqian got into the RV one after another.
When they got in the car, Nan Ci looked at Xiao Zhang and said, "You sit in the passenger seat and show him the way."
Xiao Zhang nodded repeatedly and walked towards the passenger seat with his back bent.
When sitting down, Xiao Zhang's body was tense.
If it weren't for the restrictions of the position, Nan Ci estimated that Xiao Zhang could even sit in the passenger seat.
Although it is no longer a vain seat, it is not much better and it looks very awkward.
Nan Ci never liked to force others. When he met Xiao Zhang by chance, he was too lazy to persuade him and just let him do what he wanted.
Fortunately, the distance was not far, and the distance that would have taken half an hour to run was completed in just over ten minutes.
The main reason was that there were pedestrians in the base, so Zhou Ziyang didn't dare drive too fast, otherwise the time could be shortened further.
As soon as the car came to a stop, Xiao Zhang stood up impatiently and said, "We're here, I'll take you inside to have a look."
