Chapter 148 Milk Tea Shop and Breeding House
This is a black circular building, which is different from the log-colored houses on other rafts and looks very special. But if you get closer, you will find that this three or four meter high circular building also has wooden exterior walls, but the color has changed from log color to black.
The size of Chen Fa's raft has not changed, but there are some open-air black wooden tables and chairs with parasols on the deck. There are also carvings on them, which look like iron from a distance. There are also a few more artistic lamps of the same style at the four corners of the deck, making the entire deck look particularly cool and special.
Yao Ruoyun, who ran out to watch the fun, exclaimed: "A dark minimalist milk tea shop? This is so unique."
But obviously, no one guessed correctly at this time.
The interior of the circular building is also a compressed space, divided into two floors, with a single floor area of about 70 square meters. The first floor is a milk tea shop, with a small warehouse, a water bar, and a long counter occupying half of the space, and the other half is the customer area, with the same black wooden tables and chairs as the outer room.
There are two familiar-looking machines at the entrance, which are raft point redemption machines.
The ceiling, walls and floors inside the building have been restored to the warm original wood color, matched with black tables and chairs, adding a bit of warmth to the cool feeling, making it particularly high-end.
Shu Fu really likes the color style of this milk tea shop, which is cool and warm, and fits Chen Fa very well.
The arc-shaped glass sliding door is in the middle, with two long horizontal windows on both sides. In front of the window, against the wall is an inlaid black arc-shaped long table, and next to the table are several high chairs, which are single seats for viewing the scenery.
However, the viewing seats are located on the first floor, and the most you can see is Yao Ruoyun’s glass plantation house in front and the water area next to it. The scenery is really a bit vague.
The upper floor of the circular building is naturally the space of Chen Fayuan's cabin, which has now been expanded into a two-bedroom, one-living room living space of about 60 to 70 square meters. All the windows in the building are horizontally opened, and because they are opened on the curved walls, the entire interior looks like a spaceship cabin.
While others were studying the water bar and long counter on the first floor, Chen Fa and Chen Yuezhen were studying the electronic screen at the door of the residence. Soon, Chen Fa, holding the electronic screen, poked his head out from the stairs against the wall and said, "Xiao Fu, help me turn on the sewage treatment and electricity source."
"Okay." Shu Fu responded and quickly returned to the Drifting Island House.
Later, when she came over again, other people who had visited the milk tea shop had already come out, and Chen Fa and Chen Yuezhen also came out.
Chen Fa held the electronic screen on her raft in her hand and tapped it quickly a few times. Suddenly, the arc-shaped black building in front of them began to slowly rotate and rise. Everyone then realized that there was a circle of arc-shaped inner wall inside the arc-shaped outer wall. The whole building was actually a double-layer building inside and outside.
At this moment, the outer wall stands still, while the inner wall rises up like a rising spiral, carrying the milk tea shop and the residential apartments above.
This building can actually move and rise! ?
It kept rising until it reached a height of twelve or thirteen meters and then slowly stopped.
The original three- or four-meter-high arc-shaped building was stretched into a five-story cylindrical building, which is slightly narrower at the top and slightly wider at the bottom, but the overall difference is not big. The entire building's exterior wall is alternating between black and log color, and at the outermost edge of the wall, there is a black spiral handrail staircase that goes up around the cylinder.
Chen Fa reopened the door on the ground floor and said that there was a spiral staircase in the middle. People who were afraid of heights could go up from inside the building and enter the first floor of the milk tea shop. As for those who were brave enough, they could directly take the spiral staircase on the outside and go upstairs while enjoying the scenery nearby.
Shu Fu looked up at the building for a moment and suddenly said, "This looks like a lighthouse!"
A small cylindrical high-rise building with living space on the top floor and located above the water, what else could it be but a lighthouse?
Chen Fa looked at the small building with a unique shape in front of him and smiled: "Then let's call it the Lighthouse Milk Tea Shop!"
**
Everyone was curious about the view from the elevated milk tea shop, so they all walked up the spiral staircase along the handrail on the outer wall.
All the facilities in the elevated milk tea shop are the same as before, the only difference is the height. The height has been increased by more than ten meters, making the view from the viewing point several times better.
It is night now and visibility outside is not high, but one can imagine how pleasant it would be if it were daytime, if the raft was on the endless waters, sitting at such a curved long table with friends, drinking a cup of milk tea, looking at the heavy rain and the boundless ocean outside the window, listening to white noise and chatting.
Because of the height they were at, when they looked at another new type of raft next to them, they were suddenly dazzled. Zheng Feifei's breeding house had also chosen two other shared functions. Because all the superpowers had water purification filters to solve their water needs, she also chose electric energy and sewage treatment.
When standing on the front deck of the raft and looking at her feeding hut, it felt ordinary. It was still a single-story hut in natural wood color with large floor-to-ceiling windows. The only difference was the shape and number of the hut, which were separate small rooms.
Each single room is a compressed space with an internal area of more than 30 square meters. It consists of a kitchen, dining room and living room, and two bedrooms in one room. In addition to the outward-facing glass doors, there are also doors on the walls connecting each other to facilitate daily living and rest.
The other single-room cabins are all breeding houses. Each one has different fences, furnishings and supporting facilities. The interior is bright and looks very high-tech.
The wall between the breeding house and the living quarters is slightly separated, with a walkway in the middle with double doors.
But other than that, I didn't feel anything special when I watched it.
Until this moment, when they stood at a height of more than ten meters, they found that the flat-roofed huts on Zheng Feifei's deck were all hexagonal. Six hexagonal huts were arranged in a circle on the deck, forming a larger hexagonal glass house in the middle. The roof of the glass house was surrounded by a circle of battery panels like those in the planting house.
This shape—it’s a honeycomb!
"So special!" Yao Ruoyun leaned against the window and admired. The new raft facilities were more beautiful and special than the other ones. She was a little envious!
Except for the two hexagonal huts that are used as living quarters, the remaining four hexagonal huts and the largest glass hexagonal house in the middle are all breeding areas.
This means that her breeding house can currently raise at least five kinds of animals.
Of course, it's all empty now.
The same goes for the milk tea shop. All the machines and kitchen utensils for making drinks are available, and the small warehouse also has a complete set of refrigerators, freezers and shelves, but there are no matching materials.
But now their raft has just been towed, and it has gained three shared functions and their own living space, which is enough for them to be busy with the arrangements for a while, and there is no rush for other things.
Chen Fa knew that Shu Fu would start the Drifting Island House before going to bed, and drift across the river with the raft behind her and return to the water outside, so she slowly lowered her Lighthouse Milk Tea Shop.
Shu Fu watched the milk tea shop change from a cylindrical shape to an arc shape, feeling novel and interesting. She estimated that she would become a regular customer here in the future. As for the problem of the shop not having materials at present, it was actually easy to solve. Just take out a few milk tea gift packs and let Chen Fa sell them first.
At the same time, she now has an important thing to do first. How could she bear to let such a stylish, cool and handsome milk tea shop stay in the second echelon of the raft?
She returned to the Drifting Island House and first sent a voice announcement, saying that the layout of the raft would be adjusted, and that it would be best for everyone to stay indoors and not to panic if they noticed any changes in their surroundings.
She quickly swapped the positions of several rafts on the function screen, first swapping the inn raft at position 2 with the milk tea shop raft at position 3. Then she felt that it was not harmonious to place the inn behind the plantation house, so she swapped the inn raft at position 3 with the breeding house raft at position 4.
The towing diagram was quickly updated. There were four rafts following behind the drifting island house in the front. The two on the left were original ecological rafts for planting and breeding, while the two on the right were stylish and modern holiday and leisure rafts.
Very good, the prototype of the water city has been established.
While Shu Fu was admiring the construction and arrangement of his raft, the people on the raft behind him had different reactions after discovering their new position.
Chen Fa was packing up the furniture that she and her grandmother had originally placed in the raft hut in the circular residence on the second floor. When she found that her milk tea shop had been moved to the back of Shu Fu's raft, she immediately smiled with understanding.
Yao Ruoyun was planting new vegetable seeds in the vacant planting spots after the vegetables were harvested in the triangular glass house on the second floor. She was delighted to find that the rafts outside had swapped positions. No matter how the outside world changes, she will always be the No. 1 among her seniors!
In the small building of the hotel, Lu Ce first exclaimed, and when he ran out of the small building and confirmed that his seat had been moved to the second row, he immediately showed a tearful expression.
A moment later, Xu Jiechu also ran out. He lived in the room on the left side of the first floor. He could see the rear deck of Shu Fu's raft by looking out the window. Sometimes when she released the raft of the big villa, he would be the first to know.
Now, when I turned around, I saw a black cylinder. What is this?
"That's Sister Fafa's milk tea shop!" Lu Ce looked at Xu Jiechu with an expression that said, "Why are you so late with the news?"
In the small building of the hotel, because Zheng Feifei, Chen Fa and other three people had moved out, only two girls, Zhang Tian and Wu Shaoshan, were left among the six new members.
Wu Shaoshan was fine. She felt that she was just an ordinary person, and like the other six guests in the hotel, she decided to treat this place as her home and stay there peacefully.
To be honest, the environment of this hotel building is much better than the house she rented in Kangsu County. Not only is the house in Kangsu County small, but because of the long rain, the clothes and quilts are always wet and can never be dried no matter how hard they are hung out to dry. The corners and ceilings are also moldy, and even weeds and fungi grow in the cracks in the corners. Even if they are cleaned today, they will grow again in a few days.
What’s even more terrifying is that there will be wriggling centipedes and millipedes in the room at any time, and there will be even more mosquitoes and cockroaches in summer.
And here, not only is it bright, clean, tidy and new, but most importantly, the surrounding is very dry. That invisible layer of protection not only blocks the heavy rain outside, but also seems to block the hot and humid air and various insect creatures outside. Even when she walks out of the small building and stands on the deck, the surrounding is refreshing, dry and cool.
Although she had only stayed here for one night, she had decided to live here for the rest of her life. She was extremely grateful at this moment that she had decided to leave that home completely and follow Chen Fa.
As for the cost of staying in the hotel, she had to first pay back the supplies that someone paid for her yesterday. For the next period of time, she would rely on gold to support the hotel expenses, and then start actively looking for a job to earn raft points.
She heard that the hotel had added two new triple rooms and a public bathroom, and could hire another employee, so she originally thought of working directly at the hotel.
But now, Chen Fa and Zheng Feifei's raft has also changed, now it has become a milk tea shop and a breeding house. Apparently, the types of jobs to choose from have increased. She is quite happy about it, but at the same time, she begins to wonder whose raft she should work on in the future.
While thinking, Wu Shaoshan continued to organize the things in her backpack, putting her few daily necessities and clothes in the proper places in the room. Because she was in a good mood, she was humming a song. However, when she turned around, she saw Zhang Tian sitting in a corner of the sofa, looking out the window with a somewhat depressed expression.
"What's wrong?" Wu Shaoshan asked, then she remembered that Zhang Tian also had a raft, and roughly guessed the reason why she was in a bad mood at the moment, "Have you told Shu Fu that you also have a raft? Don't think about it here. If you have any questions, go and ask her!"
"You don't understand..." Zhang Tian shook her head. Whether it was the hot pot dinner just now or these unique rafts, they all showed that Shu Fu today was no longer the Shu Fu of the past.
At first, she thought that the existence of this hotel building was due to the special abilities of the raft owner. But until just now, when Shu Fu was going in and out on her raft and performing various operations, connecting Chen Fa and Zheng Feifei's rafts and completing the transformation, she realized that Shu Fu was the most special person on this drifting raft island.
How should I tell her? They haven't seen each other for nearly two years, and she is not as close to her as Chen Fa.
Moreover, in the past two years, everyone has been living under the pressure of the end of the world. No matter who they are when they meet again, some changes have occurred. Their skin is not as good as before, they have become thinner, darker and more haggard, they have cut their hair short and no longer dress up, they always wear trousers and rain boots and look very sloppy... Only Shu Fu, compared with two years ago, not only has whiter and more rosy skin, but the whole person also has a sense of confident, leisurely and relaxed feeling.
How should she tell Wu Shaoshan now that the major changes that had taken place in her family in the past few months had completely shattered her self-confidence, but why did her damn self-esteem pop up again at this moment?
In short, she couldn't speak.
What Zhang Tian didn't know was that an hour later, in Chen Fa's milk tea shop, Shu Fu would discuss the same issue with Chen Fa.
**
During this hour, Shu Fu had admired his raft kingdom enough, so he started the drifting mode of the raft and set the destination to the estuary at the end of the river.
Because there was no need to rush, she set the flow rate to 30. In this way, when the people on the raft woke up tomorrow morning, they could still enjoy the scenery along the river, which was different from the water outside.
The Drifting Island House towed two more rafts. She thought of the hidden task she had activated earlier, and took out her black mini notebook to check it.
[Current unlocking progress of the bracelet: 40%. You will receive a "special reward" when the bracelet is 100% unlocked.]
The above progress has indeed changed!
According to this ratio, it can be known that her previous inference was correct. The key to completing the "Bracelet Unlock" task is the number of towing rafts. There are still six rafts, which means six towing positions are needed. According to the probability of accumulating ten consecutive draws in a month, the gold one is calculated.
Conservatively speaking, it would take her another half year to complete this task.
Let it be half a year. Anyway, I just lie down every day now, so half a year will pass quickly.
Afterwards, Shu Fu put away her notebook and began to reorganize her space, putting back the large items such as the car, cabinet, sofa, etc. that she had temporarily put into the space in the morning in order to empty and compress the display cabinet.
So after putting everything back in place, she looked at the profitable area of the raft that was separated in the space, and was surprised to find that in addition to some supplies that Chen Fa and the others had added when they checked in last night and the small gold that she had thrown in this morning, there was also a stack of neatly stacked vegetables.
The vegetables are so fresh and green, you can tell at a glance that they have just been picked, and are comparable to the prizes from the lottery wheel.
But why are there vegetables in this area? She remembered that the materials taken out from this area could not be put back in, so it was impossible that she accidentally put the vegetables stored in other areas of the space when she was packing up.
Shu Fu looked at the pile of vegetables and thought about it. Finally, he remembered something and went straight to Yao Ruoyun's raft behind.
"Yes, I did harvest a batch of vegetables, but not today. It should be yesterday, after you started your plan yesterday morning. The vegetables were ready to be picked, so my dad told us to pick them early so as not to affect our trip to Zhashui County. After picking them, I sold some to the hotel and gave some to Sister Jiang Dai as an employee benefit... So many things happened in the past two days that I forgot about it. Oh, by the way! I'll leave some for you. Just come over and I'll give it to you!" Yao Ruoyun said as she was about to take out the backpack.
Shu Fu held her hand and said, "No need, I've already received it."
"Ah?" Yao Ruoyun didn't understand.
Shu Fu smiled and patted her: "Remember to compare the total amount and inventory after the next harvest."
It was not until Shu Fu left that Yao Ruoyun reacted. She immediately took out a large cardboard box from her backpack. Inside was the remaining vegetables from the harvest. Her father was very careful and had tied the vegetables into bundles according to the weight, 500 grams per bundle, which made it easy to count.
She counted them carefully, and based on the total amount harvested earlier and the amount sold to the inn later, she finally deduced that the amount of vegetables was indeed less, about one twentieth of the total amount harvested.
But——how did her senior know?
