After taking good care of the little zombie, Xie Pu Rou continued to greet the guests.
The little animals were very well-behaved. When they saw strangers, they went back to the RV to avoid causing trouble for Xie Pu Rou.
I took out the lunch box machine and dumpling vending machine and placed them next to the RV.
They were injured and not fit to eat anything else, so she placed a few roujiamo freshly made by robots at the serving counter.
"The things are ready. If you want to buy something, just go and get it yourself."
There weren't many people around, and there was no need for her to greet them actively, so she just let them go.
When Xie Purou came over, Yang Ji had just returned to the car and taken out a bottle of water. He was opening it and using the water to clean the wounds of his injured companion.
As she passed by Yang Ji, she seemed to sense a vaguely familiar smell.
By the time she had struggled to search for the result in her mind, Yang Ji had already responded and headed straight for the RV.
Yang Ji went to buy food, so Xie Purou sat down nearby, closer to Qingche, and said to Wei Xueyi, "Are you from the nearby base?"
"Yes." Wei Xueyi gritted his teeth, endured the pain and changed his sitting position.
Xie Purou didn't like beating around the bush and said directly, "I wanted to find a water source nearby. Do you know where there is a water source nearby?"
"Water source?" Are you here to find water source?
Wei Xueyi decisively refused: "No."
The tone was harsh and the attitude changed suddenly, and even Qingqing, who was far outside the protection range of the RV business, felt it.
Xie Purou had been in business for so long, how could she not see that Wei Xueyi's face clearly showed that he was afraid of being seen through by her, and he subconsciously refuted her in a hurry.
After coming to this world, doing business will be smooth sailing. You will either encounter cheating and cunning people, or you will face them head-on.
Except for those who were wary or disgusted with her from the beginning, no one could escape the influence of the affinity emanating from her aura.
Logically speaking, she had just saved them in a disguised way, so they shouldn't still be so hostile towards her.
If it were any other time, she would definitely slowly try to get the point across, but now...
She secretly called out to the system: "Can you increase the affinity halo?" If you have a cheat code and don't use it, you're a fool!
M80: [It can be increased, but it can't last too long, and the affinity aura has little effect on people with strong will.]
"You increase the size first, and then I'll try."
[Affinity Aura Enhancement has been activated. Countdown remaining for enhancement: 30, 29...]
The look in Wei Xueyi's eyes as he looked at her had begun to change, it was a look of gradual trust.
For the first time, Xie Pu Rou truly felt the practicality of the legendary "charm technique". Now was not the time to be happy, as the halo would only last for thirty seconds, so she had to hurry.
She said directly: "I'm not a bad person, I'm just passing by and want to refill my RV with some water. I want to ask if there is a water source nearby?"
Wei Xueyi's eyes were unfocused, and he hesitated amidst his resistance: "Yes..."
The aura of affinity can directly affect people's trust in her. Now, whatever Xie Purou says, the other party will believe it.
"I want to fill my RV with water. Where is that water source?"
“In…” Wei Xueyi shook his head: “In… I can’t say.”
Seeing that there was a chance, how could Xie Pu Rou let it go?
He continued, "I'm not a bad person. I just saved you. I just want to know where the water source is."
"In the west..."
"I've bought the things." Yang Ji came over carrying a bunch of things he had bought. Just as he was about to call Wei Xueyi for help, he remembered that his leg was injured, so he had to carry the things over by himself with great effort.
What are you talking about? Tell me!
The question was interrupted, and the aura of enhanced affinity gradually lost its effect. Xie Purou sighed. What a pity.
It's just that the enhanced affinity halo has lost its effect, but the original affinity halo is still there. When Yang Ji saw Xie Pu Rou, he was also affected by the enhanced affinity halo.
Xie Pu Rou said calmly, "We're talking about whether there's a water source nearby. I want to add some water to my RV."
Yang Ji put the things on the table, sat down and said naturally: "Hasn't it rained a lot recently? Just pick up some containers to fill with water."
Forget about it! Xie Purou roared inwardly: Damn rainy day.
His face didn't show it, and he still had that calm expression: "That's true."
"I'm just curious. We're in the south, so how do you survive when it's extremely hot?"
"You're not from the South?" Yang Ji paused. "You spoke so softly and slowly, I thought you were from the base nearby."
Yang Jili took out two roujiamo and handed one to her, but Xie Purou waved her hand to refuse.
"I sell food. You can see that I have plenty of food in my car."
Yang Ji didn't force it. He was very happy at the moment. He took the roujiamo that Xie Purou pushed back and ate it.
"Sister, no, boss, I just saw you're selling water in your car over there. Why are you still short of water?"
Yang Ji handed Wei Xueyi a roujiamo and told him, "Eat the roujiamo first, and then you'll have some dumplings and rice to fill you up."
Xie Pu Rou forced a smile and said, "That's drinkable water, I don't want to waste it. I just wanted to add some water from the pool to the car so it would be convenient for showering or something."
They believed whatever she said.
Under the influence of affinity, even if what she said was full of loopholes, they could still make up for it in their imagination.
She was not in a hurry. She had just arrived and they were right not to believe her.
Water is precious in the last days, and water sources are equally precious.
The water source can be big or small. To put it in a big way, the water source she is looking for may hold the lives of all the people in several nearby bases.
Xie Pu Rou changed the subject: "When will your companions, the ones on the ground, wake up?"
Wei Xueyi said as he ate, "It'll probably take a while. Don't worry about them. They're not in danger."
"Sis, if you're really short of water, you can go to our Dawn Base and see if you can buy some."
"That's right." Yang Ji slapped his thigh and agreed, "Our base allows people from other bases to set up stalls. If you need anything and want to buy something, you can come in and buy it."
"Also, if you want to sell some food, you might consider selling it to our base... The people at our base are very kind, and there's no bullying or seizing of supplies. If you're worried, you can apply for special protection from the base, or sell it directly to them if you have so much food."
The more Yang Ji spoke, the lower his voice became and the less confident he became.
Put yourself in his shoes. If he had a truckload of supplies, he wouldn't go to the base to sell them. The boss is new here, so how can you convince her that the base won't seize her supplies?
However, he still wanted to do his best to fight for the people of Dawn Base: "If you want to sell something, can you consider our base?"
