Chapter 41 Is this a farm?



Song Zhi smiled cunningly and then said.

"We have plenty of bottled water in the store, depending on how much you want. But it would be a bit extravagant to buy all this water for the base."

Song Zhi blinked, as if he was calculating something.

Si Qing felt that what Song Zhi said made some sense and nodded, "Yes. But there is no other way at the moment. Several water sources around the base have dried up."

"I have a way to solve your current predicament. I wonder if you are interested." Song Zhi changed the subject and said.

Si Qing's eyes lit up: "Do you have a solution?"

For some reason, he felt that the young shop owner in front of him would not lie, so much so that he did not even think carefully about what the method the girl was talking about might be.

"Well, I have a water source with abundant water storage. The water is clean and can be drunk directly."

Listening to Song Zhi's description, a hint of joy gradually appeared in Si Qing's eyes.

There is actually a water source, and the water is clean!

"I can rent that water source to you temporarily, and I agree to let your base's people come to fetch water, but I won't be responsible for the delivery. And the rent won't be cheap."

Song Zhi stopped here and waited quietly for Si Qing's reply.

Si Qing is a smart man, and there is no need to waste so much time talking to him.

Si Qing did give a reply very quickly.

There was a hint of excitement in his words, and even though he tried his best to calm himself down, Song Zhi still noticed it.

"Of course we'll figure out the transportation, and the rent is up to you, Boss Song. As long as it's not too excessive, I can accept it."

"The rent isn't expensive, it's definitely cheaper than buying bottled water directly. 50 million a month, that's not expensive, right?"

Song Zhi waved his hand and said a number.

Fifty million may be a bit expensive to provide water to tens of thousands of people at a base, but now is the end of the world and the currency has depreciated sharply.

Besides, he spent more than 60 million to empty the supermarket last time.

This time we can use water for a month, and it’s during a severe drought, so it’s really a huge profit.

Song Zhi was waiting for Si Qing's response.

Si Qing didn't expect that the price Song Zhi offered was so low.

Her long eyelashes swayed back and forth, and there was a great deal of doubt in her clear eyes.

Si Qing: Is the price really that low?

Song Zhi looked at him and suddenly understood what he was thinking.

"The price is real." Song Zhi nodded, but changed the subject the next second.

Si Qing stared at her seriously, as if she was going to say something extremely important next.

"But I'm not doing charity for nothing. I run a supermarket. If they come here to fetch water and they can stop by my supermarket, that would be great."

Song Zhi expressed her true intention with a smile.

Si Qing immediately understood what Song Zhi meant and quickly replied.

"After I return, I will promote the supermarket more at the base. Don't worry, Boss Song, the goods in your supermarket are of good quality and low price. They will be happy to buy them without me saying anything more."

"Okay, thank you for your trouble then."

The right to use water for one month was sold for 50 million Chinese yuan.

When Si Qing left, he didn't have much money on him, so he returned to the base and sent someone to deliver it.

Song Zhi agreed.

Anyway, the water source is under her control, and if the other party doesn't pay, she won't give them permission to use it.

"Boss Song, I'd like to ask, is the water source you mentioned far from here? If it's convenient, could you take me to see it?"

After finalizing the cooperation, Si Qing realized that there had been no rain in the north for more than half a month.

All the small lakes and rivers have dried up, and now Boss Song is trying to find a new source of water.

It's actually enough for tens of thousands of people in the entire base.

"Okay, wait for me to ask someone to come and look after the store."

As Song Zhi spoke, he stood up from his chair neatly and walked outside.

Seeing this, Si Qing followed.

"The lake is not far from here, near the supermarket, over there." Song Zhi pointed to the lake in the center of the farm to Si Qing.

I went to the hotel entrance to find Guo Xiong again.

"I'll take him to check out the water source over there. You take care of the store first."

"Okay, Boss Song, go ahead and don't worry. I'll definitely take good care of this store for you!"

Guo Xiong patted his chest and made a promise.

He has been learning the basics of supermarket cashiering and how to explain points redemption to customers with Song Zhi these days.

But these were not things that Song Zhi wanted to teach him, but were Guo Xiong's own request.

He said he also wanted to help when Song Zhi was too busy, even if it was just a little help.

"Okay, I'm leaving then."

"Goodbye, Boss Song." Guo Xiong stood at the door. After Song Zhi turned around and left, he quickly walked into the supermarket to check the store.

“Is this a ranch?”

Si Qing followed Song Zhi's steps, walking on the soft and moist black soil. After hesitating for a long time, he finally expressed his inner doubts.

The soil and the surrounding fields that have been turned over and are ready for sowing look like a farm no matter how you look at it.

But is there such a large farm in the northern wilderness?

At a glance, it is conservatively estimated to be more than a thousand square meters, not to mention the large lake of several hundred square meters in the middle.

Such a big farm, he has lived in the north for so many years, how come he has never seen it before?

Although this place is indeed further north and more remote than the base.

But this doesn't mean that he hasn't been here before on missions.

When I went on the mission before, this place was still a ruin. Now, not only is there a supermarket with abundant supplies, but there is also a hotel. And now there is a farm?

Si Qing doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but he now has some doubts about Song Zhi's identity.

As the scorching September sun shone on his body, Song Zhi suddenly felt a chill on his back.

When I turned around, I met Si Qing's inquiring gaze.

She smiled and answered the question Si Qing had just asked.

"Well, this is a farm, but the seeds haven't been planted yet." Song Zhi raised his hand to show Si Qing the fields on the other side.

"Oh right, the water source I told you about is right up ahead. You should have seen it. It's that lake. Don't be fooled by its small size. The water storage capacity is more than enough to support the water needs of your entire base."

As they were talking, the two of them had already reached the lake.

Song Zhi bent down and ran her slender fingers across the water.

The cool touch made Song Zhi squint his eyes comfortably and let out a moan.

"Well, it's comfortable. Natural water is still cooler."

Touching the water in the lake and taking a shower in the bathroom are completely different feelings.

In the previous life, due to the endless destruction of zombies, natural water sources like this were almost extinct and were all polluted.

She also made a plan at that time, planning that after the end of the world, she would start focusing on purifying the environment and water sources.

But before she could complete her plan, something inexplicably happened!

System: Uh... This must not be my fault. It must be that your physical condition at the time was too poor! Yes, that must be the case.

Song Zhi: Haha!
