Chapter 158 Existence and independence from the end of the world



Xie Pu Rou likes the sound of rain, but she doesn’t like the wet ground outside, so she chooses to separate herself from the outside and prevent the rain from falling into the B&B.

Everyone who was in the B&B yesterday saw that the B&B seemed like a real little world independent of the apocalypse.

What we saw from the outside was that the rain was dodged when it touched the protective cover above the B&B, and there was no accumulation of raindrops around.

Looking up at the sky from inside, you can see raindrops falling from the sky. When you are about to touch the guesthouse, it disappears as if it were a card game.

This spectacle disappointed the children staying in the B&B who were hoping for rain.

They don’t understand the pros and cons, whether it’s comfortable or whether their clothes will get dirty. They just know that they can’t have fun playing in the water.

Xie Pu Rou was sleeping soundly. There was nothing she had to do, so she slept until she was no longer in a bad mood.

It took me a while to get up and regain my energy.

She moved the courtyard where she lived to the edge so that she could see the scenery outside through the window of her room.

In fact, there is really nothing to see, even few flowers, plants and trees.

I wanted to make myself a cup of coffee and watch the rain outside, but I found that I hadn't unlocked coffee yet.

"Tongtong, didn't you say that the degree of freedom would be better after the upgrade? Explain."

[The host can unlock the furniture mall on his own, but...]

She knew this wasn't going to be easy, so she sighed and said helplessly, "But you're going to have to spend money on this again, right?"

[What a smart and beautiful host~~~]

"Stop the flattery."

I was so sleepy yesterday that I didn’t even take a good look at what I unlocked after upgrading. I hurriedly unlocked the room for someone to stay in and then came back to sleep.

There is still a lot of time, so there is no need to rush.

My main points have been lost a lot, and I don’t know whether I need to spend money on the hospital. I still have to keep some small savings to feel at ease.

There was no point staying here without coffee, so I changed my clothes and prepared to go out.

It was bustling outside the B&B. It was exactly twelve o'clock, lunch time.

The old tenant woke up to find that the B&B had been upgraded. He was happy but felt that he had to do something.

The development of B&Bs is faster than that of human beings. Who knows whether the price of food in B&Bs will increase in the future?

What they are best at is being prepared for danger in times of peace, because similar things have happened before.

When the end of the world just came, the order of human civilization had not yet collapsed, and paper money at that time could still be used to buy food.

The longer we enter the apocalypse, the more we realize the preciousness of food.

It's not just the prices that are skyrocketing, but also the food that is out of stock and at a great price.

After experiencing such a disaster, everyone has to be more cautious and prepared.

As the homestay expands, the food court also expands.

There is a certain distance between each item sold to avoid crowding.

The upgraded food street is in the shape of a cross, with an ornamental fountain in the middle of the cross.

The fountain is also very large, and the children from the Jiaoyang Base sit in front of the fountain and play.

The children in the B&B are all in school, and she was quite uncomfortable seeing so many children on the street at this time.

But I have to go back and talk to Rong Gang about the children's schooling.

I packed myself a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes and took it back to the B&B to eat as usual.

Now I don’t dare to eat in the B&B because every visitor passing by recognizes her face.

Everyone came to say hello and she was really overwhelmed.

"Rong Gang?" She saw someone waiting for her from a distance.

His cheeks flushed slightly, and he didn't know if it was because of the heat or because he wanted something from her.

It's not a big surprise. I knew he would come today.

She walked forward and pushed open the gate. "Come in and talk."

He followed her into the house. There was no one in the house, just like last night.

Xie Purou put the food into the space to keep it warm, prepared two cups of tea, and handed one of them to him.

"What is it?"

"Shopkeeper...it's about what happened last night. The Prideful Sun Base will definitely not let us escape together. You went to the base to set up a stall before and left without saying a word. The base commander was furious."

Xie Purou lowered her eyelashes and looked at the teacup in her hand. The hot water in the teacup emitted wisps of green smoke.

Glancing at him from the corner of her eye, she asked softly, "Did he give the survivors on the bottom level a hard time?"

Rong Gang forced a wry smile, "He has always been like that, but he has done a good job on the surface in the outside world. In the end times, information is blocked, so no one outside knows what kind of person he is."

She frowned slightly, "Why is he making things difficult for me?"

"It's just the same method, it's just exploitation, and the work has to be doubled."

Rong Gang spoke in a light and relaxed tone, as if the incident was not happening to him.

But it is true that compared to ordinary people, he lives a comfortable life.

So she also indirectly influenced them to a certain extent?

Not knowing what to say, she could only politely say, "It's okay, it's all in the past. As long as you earn points and renew the rent here, it shouldn't be so tiring."

She then told them where the premium points redemption machine was located. "The basic room rate for one person per day is 30 points. If you don't renew your payment within 24 hours of checking in, you'll have to leave."

Rong Gang had a plan in mind on how to earn points to survive, and he was overjoyed.

He quickly assured, "Don't worry, owner. I've shown them the store rules."

The topic returned to the worry about the Jiaoyang Base coming after them, and Xie Purou simply said, "Don't worry."

Rong Gang stared at the woman in front of him in a daze.

Even though she was only a few years older than him, her words actually gave him a sense of security.

When she said the three words "Don't worry", an inexplicable magic surged in his heart, which was to believe her.

"I feel relieved with the owner's words." Rong Gang stood up to say goodbye.

Xie Purou poured him a cup of tea without changing her expression and placed it in front of him. "There's one more thing."

"Shopkeeper, you say."

She briefly described the thoughts she had just had by the fountain.

"Do you have children who want to go to school? If they are willing to go, we provide free food and accommodation for students here." She paused and added, "Slackers are not allowed."

If you are here to just get by, don't lead others astray. She doesn't ask others to do anything for her to study or not.

"Really?" Rong Gang couldn't believe what he heard.

End of the world, school, free?

What a niche Chinese language! How come he doesn’t understand these three words together?

She refilled her tea and said briskly, "It was Second Junior Brother who lied."

"Shopkeeper, you..." Rong Gang hesitated for a long time, his ears turned red, and he couldn't find a word to praise her.

Xie Purou waved her hand and said the words herself.

"I'm a good person, right?"
