Of course I have some ideas, otherwise these few days hanging around in the base would have been in vain.

Lao Gao said, "We want to rent a storefront and sell our own things."

Lan Jin then added, "We also want to rent a piece of land and continue growing vegetables."

Huang Jinghe nodded repeatedly, "Yes, we have experience in growing vegetables, and opening a shop is actually very simple. Besides, we have a lot of people, so we can handle both."

Ling Jiang then added, "The most important thing is that life has been too exciting these past few months, so we want to live a simple life like ordinary people for a while. Of course, if there's anything we need to do, we definitely won't refuse."

But the meaning is very clear, don't ask them for small matters, and they may not be able to solve big problems, but they certainly won't shirk their responsibilities.

The four of them were not originally members of the base, so as long as they didn't want to, the base couldn't force them to do anything they didn't want to do.

But the base also has rules, that is, people with special abilities need to take on a mission every month -

Captain Zhang thought carefully. The mission they had just taken on was very difficult. If they were to use it to offset the damage, it would take a long time. After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, fine. As long as you do your job well and don't mess around, it'll be fine. But... since you're planning to open a store, you must have supplies. The base can actually accept them, and the price won't be lower than what you sell them for, so..."

"No, we just want to open our own shop and sell it ourselves. This is a pleasure that belongs only to us."

Both matters have been responded to, and the next step is to apply for them.

With their relationship with Captain Zhang, it took them a few days to process it directly. He also told them another thing, "This mission is very rewarding, and it takes a long time and is very dangerous.

Therefore, the base will reward each of the 50 or so of us returning to the base with 50,000 contribution points. You can go to the redemption area at the entrance to collect them. Considering the danger level of this mission, 50,000 contribution points is a bit too few, so I have applied for a three-month rent exemption for the storefront."

It wasn't over yet. Captain Zhang said, "In addition, each person will be rewarded with 20 corresponding ability crystals. Of course, Lan Jin has a high-level ability, and crystals are too rare, so it's 10, but it's still a lot."

Speaking of crystals, Lan Jin didn't fight for them, but why did the mutant creatures encountered in R City have no crystals?

"The mutants in the dense forest are so strange, who would dare to look for them? Those mutants outside really don't have any of these types, otherwise I would have taken everyone to collect crystals long ago." Captain Zhang said, "However, it seems that the mutants in some places don't have crystals in their bodies. As for the reason, who knows."

"If that's the case, then what are you waiting for? Let's go now."

In the past, no one would complain about having too much money, and now no one would complain about having too many contribution points. No one would feel at ease unless the contribution points were deposited into the card.

But what about the problem of extreme heat and polar days? When will it be alleviated?

Since they were already chatting, they naturally couldn't just let Captain Zhang leave like that. They took him to the contribution point exchange area and started questioning him.

Captain Zhang said, "I haven't really found out about this issue. It seems like it will continue for a while. We're all staying at the base, so it shouldn't be affected. You don't have to worry about it anymore."

"It's safe to stay in the base, but all the bases outside have been destroyed. How can you guarantee that the Jing City base won't be destroyed? What if mutant creatures attack? Of course, the base does have people with special abilities who can hold out for a while, but..."

That’s right, but, “What if something happens? Who can guarantee that the Jing City base is absolutely safe?”

Captain Zhang was really annoyed by these people. "You guys, do you hope this place is safe or not?"

"Safety is of course the best, but there are always unexpected events."

Yes, there are always unexpected events, so the people above will build a bigger and better base outside. If they can't defend this place, I'm afraid they will need to move again.

But everything has not happened yet, and Captain Zhang has just learned a little bit, so he naturally doesn't dare to make it public. But he knows that Huang Jinghe's parents were sent there, and they will never be able to come back until the place is built.

No, it would be even more impossible to come back after it was built, so it was almost impossible for Huang Jinghe to reunite with his parents here.

In the end, Captain Zhang still didn't mention anything.

…

Material exchange office.

All four of them deposited the contribution points awarded by their superiors into their cards. By the way, Ling Jiang also cancelled the certificate for Grandma Ling and transferred all the unused contribution points of Grandma Ling back to his own card.

After finishing all the work, Captain Zhang took them to the planting area to buy seeds.

After getting the seeds, Captain Zhang said, "You can start planting these vegetables tomorrow. As for the storefront, you need to decorate it in advance if you want to sell anything."

Those storefronts that have not been rented out are all the same, with glass doors and large white chandeliers. Although they look simple, as long as you are not particularly particular, you can open them directly.

It just so happens that they are the ones who are not particularly particular.

So the decoration can really be omitted. Besides, decoration is not free, and they are reluctant to spend contribution points to hire someone to decorate it. Lao Gao can do these things himself, and they can also help. Naturally, they will save as much as possible.

As for what to do——

"Let's go back tonight and discuss it before making a decision." After that, Lan Jin asked in a low voice, "The things are all in my space. I'll just take them out like this. Is it okay? Do you need us to go out for a walk?"

Captain Zhang was speechless. What's the harm in going out? It sounded as if one could find supplies outside, so there was no need at all.

After hearing what Captain Zhang said, they naturally understood, but they also had to admit that the outside was really clean.

Lan Jin said, "If that's the case, then I understand. Okay, anyway, we'll be careful not to get caught red-handed."

"Well, I'll go to the planting area tomorrow and give you the key to the store. You can open it at any time. You can arrange the rest by yourselves."

After saying that, Captain Zhang left, and they took the contribution points and crystals and happily went to pick up little Lan Qiaoqiao from school.

I have to say, after her lecture yesterday, the situation today is much better. At least, apart from her, no one has a sad face.

There's another chapter at 2 o'clock
