Chapter 491: Staying in Yancheng in Snowy Weather
The days passed by leisurely. Xia Xiaoman flew back and forth to the surrounding cities in a helicopter every day. Li Yu'e and the others would go on missions when they had them, and stay in the underground city to help manage the chess and card room when they didn't.
The transparent cover of the water mushrooms on the float is also being built up day by day. It seems that they want to build a semicircular transparent cover to cover the float.
On this day, Xia Xiaoman delivered goods to Yancheng for trading. Just after the goods were traded, a gust of wind blew over, followed by a large flake of snow falling from the sky.
The person in charge of Yancheng looked at the sky and said, "Looking at the weather, there will probably be a snowstorm. Miss Xia, do you want to hide in our Yancheng first? It's very dangerous to fly a helicopter in such weather."
Xia Xiaoman nodded, "Okay, thank you for your help."
The underground city of Yancheng was similar to the floating city, but the difference was that there were many small stalls on both sides of the street, selling a wide variety of things. There were plants she didn't recognize, some snacks, exquisite and beautiful braided hairbands, homemade laundry detergent, and so on.
In order to facilitate transactions in Yancheng, the person in charge of Yancheng applied for a Yancheng phone card for Xia Xiaoman. After connecting to the local network of Yancheng, Xia Xiaoman found that the quality of life in Yancheng was much better than theirs. Apart from anything else, the spiritual food was quite sufficient.
On the Yancheng official website square, many people posted short novels or half-finished comics. If you are interested in the follow-up content, you can add the other party privately and pay to watch the follow-up content.
In addition to these, Yancheng's official website has also developed a game area with various mini-games, some of which are paid and some are free, all of which are stress-relieving mini-games that are easy to get addicted to.
After strolling around Yancheng for half a day, Xia Xiaoman felt that Yancheng had done a great job in terms of food, drink and entertainment.
The person in charge of Yancheng explained: "Half a year ago, our Yancheng was still controlled by nanochips. Many survivors could not stand the endless exploitation and chose to commit suicide. In order to alleviate this situation, the higher-ups specially developed a game area."
As he spoke, the person in charge sent a message on his mobile phone, "I asked someone to grant you access. You can play and read the games and short stories on the official website anytime, without paying."
"Also, I have someone arrange accommodation for you. Someone will deliver three meals a day to you. You can tell the person who delivers the meals what you want to eat."
After the person in charge introduced the situation of Yancheng to Xia Xiaoman, he took her and Maodan to the residence. The residence was a single dormitory, but the dormitory environment was good, with a small balcony, a bathtub in the bathroom, and a pot of artificial flowers on the bedside table, which looked quite romantic.
After all, mining cities have different levels of wealth.
After seeing the person in charge off, Xia Xiaoman checked the room and made sure there were no bugs or cameras before packing her clothes and preparing to take a shower.
Just as she had finished packing, the doorbell rang. Through the electronic lock screen at the door, Xia Xiaoman saw that the person outside was in uniform, probably the staff responsible for her daily life, so she opened the door.
"Hello, Miss Xia. My name is Zhong Xue. If you have any requests during your stay in Yancheng, you can tell me and I will try my best to meet your requirements. This is my number. You can call or send me a message if you have any questions."
Zhong Xue handed Xia Xiaoman a business card with her name and phone number printed on it, and then took out a plush blanket. "There is only one quilt in the room. You can give this blanket to your pet."
Xia Xiaoman took the blanket, thanked him, then closed the door and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Xia Xiaoman lay on the bed to check the weather outside. As expected, there was a blizzard outside, and no one knew how long it would last.
After taking a nap in bed for a while, it was already dark when I woke up. Xia Xiaoman packed up and took Maodan out for shopping. They were in a hurry during the day and didn't have time to visit the street stalls in Yancheng.
The stalls were even more lively at night. Xia Xiaoman walked to a stall selling grilled potato skewers and bought two skewers of spicy potatoes and ate them while walking around.
Xia Xiaoman and Maodan attracted a lot of attention along the way, and many people stared at Maodan and pointed at him. Maodan ignored those people and followed Xia Xiaoman obediently. Occasionally, when they came across a meat stall, he would bite Xia Xiaoman's trouser leg.
Suddenly, a fair-looking handsome man stopped Xia Xiaoman, took out a booklet and opened it, and winked at her while talking, "Beauty, do you want to come to our massage parlor for a massage? We have all the technicians you like~"
Xia Xiaoman: “…”
The nightlife in Yancheng is quite rich indeed.
Xia Xiaoman declined the handsome guy's offer and continued to walk forward. When she came to a stall selling fried rice, Xia Xiaoman smelled the taste and ordered two servings of fried rice.
After the fried rice was ready, Xia Xiaoman took a plastic bag, poured one portion of the fried rice into the plastic bag and put it on the ground for Maodan to eat.
Maodan sniffed it and lay aside without moving. Xia Xiaoman thought it was too hot and wanted to let it cool before eating, so he ate it by himself. After taking a bite, Xia Xiaoman immediately spit it out.
"Boss, what did you put in this fried rice? Why is it so bitter and astringent?"
The stall owner glanced at her and said, "This is how fried rice tastes. You haven't eaten rice for a long time. You're not used to it. Just eat a few more bites."
Xia Xiaoman's mouth twitched, "Why don't you try it yourself, this taste is not right."
The boss stood still and said impatiently: "Eat it if you want or not, if you don't want to eat it, get out of here and don't find fault with me here!"
Xia Xiaoman was about to lose her temper, but she remembered that this was someone else's territory and it was not good to cause trouble, so she endured it and said, "I won't eat the meal, return the points to me."
"You've already eaten the meal, and now you tell me you don't want to eat it and want a refund? I think you're just looking for trouble!" The boss walked up to Xia Xiaoman aggressively, holding a pot and a spoon. At the same time, the guests at the nearby tables who were watching the fun stood up and surrounded Xia Xiaoman.
Maodan looked up at the men and thought they were not dangerous, so he lay back down and played with the plastic bag with his claws.
Xia Xiaoman was too lazy to talk nonsense with these people, and directly took out a gun and pointed it at the stall owner, "I said, I don't want to eat anymore, give me back my points!"
The boss who was pointed at by a gun swallowed and slowly took out his mobile phone. At this moment, he suddenly raised his hand to grab Xia Xiaoman's gun, and the people around him rushed forward.
With a loud bang, before the stall owner's hand touched Xia Xiaoman, a bloody hole appeared between his eyebrows.
The people around him all widened their eyes when they saw Xia Xiaoman actually fired a gun. After they realized what was happening, one of them ran away while shouting, "Murder! Someone is shooting someone!"
The survivors nearby were attracted by the noise, and surrounded Xia Xiaoman and the stall owner's accomplices in three layers.
