Chapter 6 Getting Better



[Congratulations to the host, the territory has been upgraded, you can unlock buildings +2, and you will be rewarded with 10,000 copper coins. ]

Following the system notification, Zhou Bai's lord panel was refreshed.

[Condition 1: Population is 1,000 or more (not met)]

[Condition 2: Territory buildings reach level 8 (not met)]

[Condition 3: Lord reaches level 10 (not met)]

There are 8 types of buildings in the territory. The original ones plus the one unlocked by this reward only have 6 types, so she needs to find two more. Wood and stone materials are easy to find, but the building blueprints are nowhere to be found! I don't know how to get them either? But since there is a requirement, there must be a way.

Putting it aside for now, Zhou Bai continued to unlock the building first.

After looking through the newly added buildings in the building introduction, Zhou Bai found that their types conflicted with the previous ones, so he chose the building he originally planned to unlock next.

[Primary tailor shop], [First-class residence].

After confirming these two, the experienced Zhou Bai first bought the missing materials in the system mall, and only started unlocking after everything was ready.

...

...

[Do you want to spend 10 gold coins, 1000 units of materials, 1000 units of stone, and 100 units of linen to unlock the primary tailor shop? ]

[Do you want to spend 5 gold coins and 1000 units of wood to unlock the first-level residential buildings? ]

"yes."

[The primary tailor shop has been completed. There is no tailor at present. Start the self-service mode. The system selects the products Top (white) and Shorts (white). Do you want to make them? ]

[The first-level residential building has been completed and can be built repeatedly. Please determine the quantity. 】

Tops and shorts were urgently needed, so Zhou Bai naturally chose to make them, and the material needed was still linen.

【Top: Linen*4】

【Shorts: Linen*6】

The price of linen sold in the system mall is 4 copper coins, which means the cost of the two is 16 copper coins and 36 copper coins respectively. Zhou Bai directly priced them at 40 copper coins and 60 copper coins and put them on the shelves.

As for the residential houses, Zhou Bai priced them at 6 gold coins. She could say that she made some money at this price. She didn't dare to pay too much for the wooden houses. In addition to purchasing, Zhou Bai also added the option of renting them at 100 copper coins per day. In the long run, renting them out would be more cost-effective than selling them, so this point should be retained. In addition, it could also be considered a way out for some people with limited funds.

Due to limited funds, Zhou Bai temporarily built 10.

The moment it was confirmed, the gold coins in Zhou Bai's account flowed away.

And within the territory, 12 buildings sprang up.

Someone noticed it and immediately shouted, "Look, there are so many more buildings there?"

Everyone looked at it with a hint of surprise in their eyes, and some people even rubbed their eyes.

"The territory has been upgraded to a level 1 village. It must be due to the upgrade of the territory." Li Xingteng said excitedly, "It's similar to the game I played before. When certain conditions are met, the territory will be upgraded. Let's go and take a look."

Led by Li Xingteng, a group of people quickly headed towards the newly emerged building.

Zhou Zhengping and Ding Qiurou knew that it was Zhou Bai who did it. They looked at her and followed the team, but slowed down their pace and kept a short distance away from them.

Zhou Bai lowered his voice a little, "I unlocked the tailor shop and the first-level residential buildings. There are 10 first-level residential buildings. Let's go buy one, and we'll have a place to stay at night."

After thinking for a while, he added, "The cost of a first-level residential building is about 5 gold coins. I set the price at 6 gold coins, and the rental fee is 100 copper coins per day."

"The price is quite reasonable. But if you rent it out, how many houses can you build with the money you have?" Zhou Zhengping glanced at Zhou Bai.

"So I want to ask my parents, are you interested in investing in the real estate business in the territory?" Zhou Bai's eyes flashed with a gleam of light. She could continue her landlady business that she had not started before the doomsday in this territory! It was even more advantageous than the doomsday, a win-win situation.

Ding Qiurou looked at her daughter's little abacus, smiled gently, and waved her hand to send Zhou Bai some money, "I'll give you 300 gold coins first, you can use them as you like, and come back to me if you don't have enough!"

The financial power of the family is in the hands of Ding Qiurou. After the property exchange, it is still a huge fortune in Ding Qiurou's hands. Now her daughter obviously wants to pursue a career, so as parents, we should support her!

[Hope Village resident Ding Qiurou gives you 300 gold coins. Do you want to accept it? ]

Zhou Bai looked at the notice in front of him, his lips curled up slightly, "Then I'll accept it first, and I'll pay you the interest later."

With gold coins, her career as a landlady would indeed develop more smoothly.

"What's inside the house?" Ding Qiurou continued to ask, not caring about whether it had been returned or not.

Zhou Bai listened and coughed lightly, "It's just a wooden house, about 30 square meters, there's nothing inside, you need to buy it yourself."

It's not her who is being stingy, it's the system.

Anyway, it’s impossible to ask her to pay for the decoration!

"It's okay, we can just buy it ourselves. Having our own space will make it more convenient for us to prepare food and sleep." Ding Qiurou said quickly. As a wealthy woman who had no worries about food and drink before the end of the world, she had high demands on the quality of life. However, after almost having to spend the night outdoors, she was surprisingly satisfied with such a wooden house.

Knowing his wife's temper, Zhou Zhengping said hurriedly, "I'll clean it up later. You should get over it now. When we have a good house in the territory, we can move on."

Feeling her husband's thoughtfulness, Ding Qiurou smiled and said, "Okay."

Not far away, the people who had gone ahead had apparently figured out the situation of the pop-up building and started discussing it one by one.

"The extra buildings are tailor shops and residential buildings."

"Great! I feel like my clothes are starting to stink. Do you have any clothes to buy?"

"Yes, there are tops and shorts. The price is not expensive, 100 copper coins for a set."

"Okay, okay, I'll go buy one."

"But do I need to take a bath to wear new clothes?"

"Who wants to take a bath? I have water here, brought back from the river. One bucket costs 10 copper coins. First come, first served!"

"There are only 10 residential buildings, hurry up if you want to move in! One building is 6 gold coins, and if you rent it, it's 100 copper coins a day."

"Six gold coins is not expensive."

"Who said it's not expensive? I only have 10 gold coins on me. I can't bear to part with it."

"If you can't bear to buy, just rent! The rent is really not expensive. Although it is still cost-effective to buy in the long run, in the short term, renting is more convenient."

"If you don't mind, it would be more economical for two grown men to rent together."

“…”

While everyone was discussing, Zhou Bai's family had already quickly bought a wooden house. The 10 houses Zhou Bai had put up were quickly sold out, so Zhou Bai built 20 more in one go.

Houses are a necessity for people at all times. These people will not lose money whether they buy or rent!

The family of three quickly entered the house. After purchasing it, you can set access permissions. Except for the allowed persons, no one else can enter. In addition, it can also block out the sounds from outside.

The family of three was very satisfied with this.

After taking a look at the general layout of the house, Zhou Zhengping took out the wood, stones and iron axe and started tinkering with it. As for Zhou Bai, he went straight to the water seller outside and bought a few buckets of water.

In a short while, Zhou Zhengping had created a small two-bedroom apartment with two rooms, a kitchen, a small living room, a shower room, and a small toilet, making the most of the 30-square-meter space.

"Honey, you're so great!" Ding Qiurou looked at the newly built house with surprise in her eyes.

"After so many years of being a rich and idle person, my skills are still as good as ever." Zhou Zhengping said proudly, "But I can feel that my health and hands-on ability seem to have improved a lot. It should be due to the game, otherwise I wouldn't be able to complete so much work in such a short time."

Listening to Zhou Zhengping's words, Zhou Bai subconsciously glanced at her personal control panel. Her feelings were actually very obvious, especially after her level increased.

"According to gaming experience, professions will be developed after reaching a certain level. There are monsters in this world. Will we get magic in the future?" Zhou Bai speculated.

Only in this way can it be considered in line with the logic of future development.

"What level do you need to reach for the next upgrade of your territory?" After hearing this, Zhou Zhengping's eyes and heart moved slightly, and he continued to ask.

"Level 10."

"Then pay more attention to the changes when you reach level 10. I think level 10 is likely to be the dividing point between professions." Zhou Zhengping analyzed. He originally thought that he could still try his best to level up since he was only one or two levels short, but now that he was five levels short, he should slow down! His daughter had done well enough, and he didn't want to push her too hard.

If possible, he hoped that he could be the one who could protect them, mother and daughter.

"Yeah." Zhou Bai nodded, not thinking too much about it.

After talking about this, the family of three started to boil water for washing.

Although it was just a simple wash, after washing and changing into new clothes, I lay on the bed made of wooden boards and really felt a little bit comfortable.

Zhou Bai fell into a deep sleep in his little room after a short while.

In the dream, gold coins kept falling from the sky and she was happily catching them below.

**

As many people had suggested before, many people were reluctant to spend so many gold coins at once. A small number chose to buy, while most chose to rent, and some even shared a house because there was enough space. As a result, everyone moved into the wooden house last night.

After all, no one would want to live in an empty lot once they have private space.

After this night, everyone's spirit and energy became different.

Obviously, the upgrade of the territory and the emergence of new buildings yesterday gave them "hope".

"The territory can be upgraded, and more and more buildings will appear in the future. Life will become better and better. I don't want to think about the doomsday game anymore. Since it has already happened, I should work hard to make money."

"Yes! Work hard and buy a house of your own. After all, this house will be much cheaper after the apocalypse than before the apocalypse."

"Also, we experienced this when we went out yesterday. As long as we don't encounter groups of monsters, we can make a lot of money in a day by using the iron axe to collect or kill monsters. When we return to the territory, we have food, drinks, and a place to sleep. It's much better than living in fear every day."

"Yes, we are lucky to have come across a territory. We are very happy to be able to have a good rest at night!"

"So I'm going to go out to collect and kill monsters later. Are you interested in joining me?"

"Yes, I signed up, and I'm already level 2 now."

"I'm already level 3! I was lucky yesterday and found a level 3 monster."

"Since characters can be upgraded, the higher the better."

“…”

Everyone talked about it, and then began to form small teams one after another.

The emergence of the doomsday game cannot be changed, so they just learn to adapt.
