They entered a multi-storey area, an independent courtyard close to the business hall. The courtyard had a heavy iron gate and the total space was less than 100 square meters.
Inside is a five-story apartment building. Apparently because they knew extreme cold was coming, the entire roof had been insulated. Judging from the exterior structure, even if the building was fully occupied, there would only be ten households.
There was a lot of coal placed against the wall in the small yard. A shed was built specially for this purpose, and the piles were cleaned up very cleanly.
An old man is carrying charcoal in a basket.
Qi Jin, who came in last, saw the old man's back and excitedly shouted, "Grandpa."
The old soldier paused for a moment, then slowly turned around. Looking at his grandson who was still alive not far away, his eyes sparkled. Even though they had only been apart for more than ten days, it felt like a lifetime ago. His voice was low and trembling: "Seven pounds."
Qi Jin rushed over and hugged his grandfather, feeling very happy.
The old soldier looked at his grandson's cheeks which had become noticeably rounder, and looked towards Nan Muran with eyes full of gratitude.
Soon the people in the room came out, including Qi Jin's parents and the twin brother and sister. The family gathered together, looking at each other, very happy.
Although Eagle's parents didn't quite understand the situation, they felt relieved when they saw Qi Jin's family was all here.
Guo Fei explained to Nan Muran and the others: "This yard is relatively small in this area, with a total of ten two-bedroom and one-living-room houses. I have bought all of them at the transaction price of the base and put them under the name of the Star Thorn Squad.
Qijin's family lives in two houses on the first floor.
Lao Ying's family can live on the second floor. There are already two families living on the third floor, and you know them all. The fourth floor is still vacant for the time being."
As soon as Guo Fei finished speaking, two people came down from upstairs.
One of them is a young man with a slender figure and a refreshing temperament. He is Chen Yunliang, an assistant at Guo Fei’s law firm before the end of the world. The other one, who is a little fat, is Zhang Bo, a partner at Guo Fei’s law firm and also his college senior.
It just so happened that Nan Muran knew both of these people.
"Miss Nan." When the two saw Nan Muran, they hurried forward to greet her.
From the way the two men walked a few steps forward, Nan Muran could be sure that two of the mutant fruits she had given to Brother Fei were eaten by them, and that they had already awakened special powers, one of the earth element and the other of the gold element.
It’s good this way. With the two of them looking after the elderly and the weak in this yard, Nan Muran and the others can feel more at ease even when they are away.
Seeing that the whole yard was full of familiar faces, Lao Ying felt relieved: "Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Taozi, then you can live here."
The old eagle's parents also breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, let's do it here."
Seeing that the two elders agreed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone in the group began to help carry things down from the car. Since they were moving, the Eagle family took almost everything that could be carried away, except for some large items that were too big to carry.
So even though the two rooms only have simple sofas, coffee tables, beds, and wardrobes, they are still very cozy. The houses here were built after the military established the base, and considering almost all the harsh environments, they are very sturdy.
The kitchen uses a coal stove, which can heat the entire house along the fire wall. It is a very reasonable design in extremely cold weather.
Laoying's parents and eldest brother lived in the east house, Taozi lived in the west house, and a room was also left for Laoying.
"Brother Fei, is there a place here where we can talk?" After everything was moved, Nan Muran looked at Guo Fei.
"The house on the fifth floor is reserved for office use." Obviously, Guo Fei had already made arrangements early on.
"Qi Jin, Lao Ying, you guys stay and accompany your family first. After we are done with our work, let's go back to the hillside together in the afternoon." After making some simple arrangements, Nan Muran, Si Ye and Guo Fei followed the other two to the east house on the fifth floor.
After entering, I found that the whole room was arranged like an office, and there was even a special meeting room and reception room.
Looking at the situation here and the arrangements made for Qi Jin and Lao Ying's family, Si Ye had to look at Guo Fei, who had never been nice to him, with a new respect.
He is smart, principled, capable, has a vision, and knows how to win people's hearts. Most importantly, he is absolutely loyal to Nan Muran. Even before the end of the world, such a person is one in a million.
Nan Muran was not at all surprised by Guo Fei's arrangement and sat down directly in the main seat.
Guo Fei sat down below her and motioned Si Ye to sit opposite him. Chen Yunliang and Zhang Bo also sat down. The order of seniority among the people was clear at a glance.
"Have you decided what kind of business you want to start?" Nan Muran asked simply and directly.
Even though it was her first time hearing about the Shensha Organization, she could roughly judge how huge this organization was. If she were to face them, she would need power, money, and combat power, and she would have to have all three, even to the extreme.
He will find a way to solve the problem of combat power himself, and Guo Fei will plan for power, so at this stage, money has become the most important thing to consider.
"It's too dangerous to directly exchange pre-apocalyptic resources for money, so we have to be more covert." Zhang Bo looked at Nan Muran and said.
In the early days of the end of the world, there are still many people who used to have high status and position living well, simply because they have sufficient resources.
However, as the end of the world dragged on, the nature of the survival of the fittest became more obvious. The resources in the hands of many people were plundered by those with stronger combat capabilities, and many people even lost their lives.
Therefore, resource exchange is very dangerous and easily coveted by others, so there is no need to do it at least now.
Nan Muran nodded in agreement. She had a lot of stuff in her space, but she didn't plan to use it to benefit all of humanity, so she naturally couldn't do this business. "So, what's your final conclusion?"
"Qihuoju." Guo Fei gave the answer after they discussed it.
Nan Muran was puzzled at first, but after a little thought she understood the key: "Auction house?"
"Plus the pawn shop." Zhang Bo originally thought that Nan Muran was too young to grasp the key points, but it was obvious that some people were born with business talent.
"That's a good idea. This business requires a very high level of security, and it can also save us a lot of trouble. What about the location? Have you chosen one? It doesn't need to be eye-catching, but it must be tasteful."
Guo Fei looked at Nan Muran and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"Brother Fei, just say it directly." Nan Muran looked at Guo Fei's reaction with some surprise.
"Villa No. 1." Guo Fei gave a direct answer.
Nan Muran was no stranger to Villa No. 1, as it was the model house of Nanshan Yunyuan. It was a single-family villa, located close to the trading hall, with unique courtyards in front and back. Its land area, landscape, and layout were unique in the entire security base. It was low-key and luxurious, with a mysterious charm, and it was indeed very suitable.
However, if they want to successfully take this place from the military, they will probably have to spend a lot of money: "Brigade Commander Chen has offered a lot of money, right?"
