234 The Tenth Store
◎The bear put his hands behind his back: "I didn't use any force."◎Lu Yao
suddenly opened his eyes, calmed down, and typed out the dream-fulfilling system.
"What's the situation with the new mission?"
The errand shop finally built a good reputation in Gaosheng City. It was a period of business growth. Lu Yao originally planned to complete the escort mission in Green Ant City and then go back to find a way to stabilize the customer base.
Lu Yao did have the idea of expanding the store business, but he didn't want to develop cross-city business for the time being.
The current situation in the Kingdom of Gold is not conducive to the development of long-distance transportation business. If a new station must be established, not only does it need to investigate the market, but it also needs to build a safe transportation line at its own expense.
Not only that, the hiring of store employees cannot be limited to special personnel from other worlds. It is best to activate some local personnel.
To be honest, Lu Yao had a lazy thought.
If she could complete the system task without continuing to expand the business, there would be no problem in continuing to develop in Gaosheng City.
The emergence of the new task immediately disrupted her original plan.
The task time reserved for this task is quite long, indicating that the difficulty of the task assessed by the system is higher than before.
The Dream Fulfilling System wanted to play dead, but it couldn't escape. It hesitated for a long time before speaking: "I... have no choice. Lu Yao, since I stood in your place, I no longer have the authority to know the task evaluation process. I don't know why this level of task appeared so quickly. In terms of difficulty, it is comparable to the ultimate task."
Lu Yao thought for a while, and invisibly put pressure on the Dream Fulfilling System.
The Dream Fulfilling System's voice weakened, and the whole system became restless: "Lu Yao, Lu Yao, please say something!"
Lu Yao: "... Stop arguing. According to what you said, you have become an abandoned child, and now you are just a tool for issuing tasks?"
Dream Fulfilling System: "...Do you have to say it so harshly?"
Lu Yao turned over and prepared to have a good talk with everyone: "Can you tell me, Who wants to do it? I can't
say "Lu Yao, no matter how useful it is , I will continue to say:" I want to give you a task. " Everyone can bully it, support it, and make it faceless . It's just a system. Lu Yao: "Tong, how about this - if my wish comes true, I will do my best to fulfill a wish for you." The Dream Fulfillment System came back to its senses: "...really...really...can you do that?" Lu Yao: "We've been to so many worlds together and opened so many stores, and you still don't believe me?" The Dream Fulfillment System was silent for a while: "Then...you may not be able to fulfill my wish." Lu Yao: "Is it difficult?" The Dream Fulfillment System: "Yeah." Lu Yao: "Then you should help me even more. The stronger I am, the greater the probability of fulfilling your wish. What is it, why don't you tell me first?" The Dream Fulfillment System's little brain was working frantically, thinking carefully, and what Lu Yao said seemed to make sense. But it was still embarrassed to say its wish. Perhaps it had been following Lu Yao for too long, and even it had some delusions for no reason. But delusion is delusion after all, it can never come true. Dream Fulfillment System: "Wish... I won't say it for now. What do you want me to do?" Lu Yao: "Double-faced spy, understand?" Dream Fulfillment System: "You want me to find out about the higher-ups..." Lu Yao: "You're really getting smarter." Dream Fulfillment System trembled: "No, no, no, this is too risky." Everything seemed very scared, and Lu Yao stopped at that point, no longer forcing them, and sat up with the quilt uncovered: "Well, I'll get up first." Dream Fulfillment System: "...What about the mission?" Lu Yao: "Don't worry, I'll find a way." Regardless of whether the Dream Fulfillment System agreed or not, the mission had to be done, otherwise they couldn't move to the next step. Xiong Anan and Kang Kang had already woken up, and were meditating in the mustard seed space, collecting the thin spiritual energy of this world. It was already daybreak, Lu Yao went in and asked them to come out to wash up, and then go for a walk outside. Xiong Anan and Kang Kang regained their human form, and ran outside to get water with simple washing tools. With the cleaning talisman, they didn't need to wash up. But in broad daylight, at least they had to pretend to wash up, so as not to be known as unhygienic in the eyes of others. The small building where Lu Yao's team lived was the best place in the Dawn Base, and just having water to wash up was a luxury. There were several people standing by the public washbasin, they should all be residents of this small building. When they saw Lu Yao and his group, they stopped what they were doing and looked at them curiously. Kang Kang was a little shy and hid behind Lu Yao. Xiong Anan was not afraid. He walked over to get some water, wet the towel, wrung it dry, and then wiped his face with it. Halfway through, he looked up at Lu Yao and frowned slightly: "This water has a strange smell, it's not good. You'd better not wash it." A young man next to him raised his eyebrows and pouted: "Just be content with having water to wash your face. If you complain about this and that, just sleep in a container and you'll be more comfortable!" Xiong Anan turned his head to look at the person who spoke: "Water just has a smell, and you're not allowed to say it? I didn't say anything weird, why are you being so weird?" The young man probably didn't expect the kid to be so sharp-tongued and could understand what he was saying. He immediately raised his eyebrows, took two steps towards Xiong Anan, and raised his right hand.
Lu Yao pulled Xiong Anan over and stood in front of him, whispering an apology: "I'm sorry, the child is immature, please don't get angry."
The young man didn't appreciate it, frowned and glared at Lu Yao: "The reason why the naughty child is naughty is because there are naughty parents like you who don't do anything. Apologies are useful, what else do we need the law for?"
Xiong Anan was furious, and he ran around Lu Yao and ran forward. Because he was shorter, he jumped up and pointed at the man's nose and shouted: "If you have something to say, just say it. What did she do? You scumbag man, what else can you do except yell at women and children? "
The young man was completely enraged, and he raised his hand that he had just put down again, and bent over to grab Xiong Anan: "Then I will teach you a lesson, you uneducated thing!"
Xiong Anan was not used to men, so he held his arm with his backhand, and with both hands, he lifted up an adult man, threw him casually, and threw him five meters away. The man
crashed into the sink in the middle aisle of the public toilet, dizzy, and couldn't stand up for a long time.
The people standing by the sink were stunned, and the eyes of the people looking at Lu Yao were different.
Lu Yao held his forehead, and he didn't expect that such a small quarrel would develop into such a situation, and he didn't have time to step forward to stop it.
Xiong Anan looked back and saw Lu Yao's face withered. She put her hands behind her back and grabbed her pants: "I didn't use any force."
Lu Yao walked over and wanted to help the man up first. The man glared at her fiercely and turned around to hold his companion's hand.
Lu Yao looked him up and down and asked the Dream-Fulfilling System to scan him.
Although the little bear was impulsive, he did not use any heavy hands. The man was more frightened than actually hurt.
But it was a headache for Lu Yao to see such an ugly commotion early in the morning.
It was originally a trivial matter, but it became like this inexplicably.
The man said that Xiong Anan was uneducated and it was indeed groundless. It was a bit excessive, and he really wanted to hit someone.
It was just that he met a tough guy and was countered. Lu Yao bit the bullet and wanted to communicate again.
The people who were with the young man held her back with their hands, their faces stern: "Who are you? Why are you living here?" Lu Yao
explained truthfully.
After hearing this, the man looked contemptuous: "Aunt Zhu is too polite. You are a few outsiders who have not made any contributions, but you are allowed to live in the small building. This building is usually only occupied by the management personnel of the base. It's daybreak now. Aunt Zhu has something to say, I will say it, you can get out."
Xiong Anan was about to go crazy when she heard this, but was caught by Kang Kang.
At this time, a girl came out of the bathroom. She had long straight black hair and a beautiful face. Looking closely, her facial features looked a bit like Aunt Zhu.
She glanced at the shouting boys and frowned impatiently: "What are you arguing about so early in the morning? I'm so annoyed."
The man who was competing with Xiong Anan was called Huang Xuan. He turned his head and saw the girl, and his face softened: "Shimeng, you are here."
Gao Shimeng paused.
After the zombie outbreak, human civilization has regressed drastically by more than 50 years.
Even in the best small building in the base, the public toilet is still a dry toilet, and you will smell after going in.
Gao Shimeng didn't want to come out of the bathroom suddenly, but Huang Xuan and the others were too much.
Gao Shimeng ignored Huang Xuan and looked at Zhou Run beside him: "These few are runners from Gaosheng City. Captain Li Zui specially invited people from the escort team. They are also guests of the base. Who taught you to talk like this?"
Zhou Run didn't dare to say anything to Gao Shimeng, and secretly winked at Huang Xuan.
It's funny to say that when the Liming Base was just built, the first base commander and the base commander's son suddenly died in a zombie tide. Now the people in the base are restless, and people with or without ability have emerged, just wanting to take advantage of the situation to control the base commander's wife and daughter.
Huang Xuan is the leader among these people, and the reason is simple and straightforward. He had previously made an engagement with Gao Shimeng.
And Gao Shimeng is the daughter of the previous base commander.
Huang Xuan seemed to like Gao Shimeng very much. Even though Gao Shimeng had been annoying him recently and had not given him any face, he never showed any resentment.
This time was no exception. Gao Shimeng told him to get out of here with his lackeys. Huang Xuan left without saying a word.
After the figures of the few people completely disappeared in the corridor, Gao Shimeng turned around and looked at Lu Yao: "I'm sorry, that group of people saw that my father and brother were gone and thought they would be able to take over the base soon, so they were very arrogant." Lu Yao thought
to himself that it was no wonder that Huang Xuan's tone when he criticized An An was as if his family had been abandoned.
She held Xiong Anan with one hand and maintained a polite smile: "Of course not, my kid also has a bad temper. He is young and ignorant, and he likes to stand out."
Gao Shimeng didn't care: "I am really annoyed to death by Huang Xuan. He actually got angry with a child of a few years old. The funniest thing is that they haven't fought yet."
Lu Yao inexplicably felt that there was a hint of gloating in Gao Shimeng's words.
This base looks small, but there are undercurrents behind it. Lu Yao doesn't want to get involved in this troublesome internal struggle. He smiled and pulled Kang Kang's Xiong An'an: "They are hungry. I will take them to find something to eat. If there is a chance in the future, come and visit again."
Gao Shimeng called Lu Yao: "Don't leave yet."
Lu Yao: "Anything else?"
Gao Shimeng hesitated for a few seconds, pulled Lu Yao to the corner of the wall, and lowered her voice again: "I heard from my mother that you are very powerful errand runners in Gaosheng City. Can you help us?"
Gao Shimeng's mother is Aunt Zhu, whom Lu Yao met last night.
The mother and daughter had breakfast together in the morning and talked about the deeds of errand runners.
Gao Shimeng wanted to ask Lu Yao to disrupt her and Huang Xuan's marriage.
Because of the game of interests in the base, her engagement with Huang Xuan seemed to be difficult to cancel.
And Huang Xuan was very cautious in private, and he refused to leave the base in recent days.
Even if Gao Shimeng had a plan, she couldn't implement it.
Lu Yao refused without thinking.
This commission is indeed understandable, but it has nothing to do with the errand business.
This is also the situation that Lu Yao was more worried about before.
Some people would want to use powerful errand runners as knives to clear out the opponents they want to clear out.
Although he rejected Gao Shimeng's commission, Lu Yao still gave her an original version of the errand shop flyer.
Since Wish.com does not cover this area, customers cannot use flyers to place orders, but they can learn about the specific business of the errand shop.
If Gao Shimeng is willing, he can naturally find a way to place an order.
Lu Yao was about to wake up Lu Mingxiao, and when he turned sideways, he saw him coming up from the first floor.
Lu Yao was a little surprised: "Where did you go so early in the morning?"
Lu Mingxiao: "I couldn't sleep, so I walked around nearby." Lu
Yao: "Did you see anything interesting?"
Lu Mingxiao shook his head, with a dark light hidden in his bright red eyes: "The bases are all the same, there's nothing interesting, the store is better. The order has been completed, when are we going back?"
"Is that so?" Lu Yao thought, "Before I leave, I also want to walk around the base."
Green Ant City was originally a city that took tourism as its key industry, with outstanding natural scenery and many man-made commercial alleys serving tourists.
The Dawn Base is built in the scenic area. The three-story building where Lu Yao and his party stayed last night was the original staff dormitory building, but it was an old dormitory.
The living facilities in the dormitory are relatively old, and even the toilet is a dry toilet, but the location is relatively high, backed by the mountains, and there are fewer people.
Simply put, it is safe.
There is a new dormitory on a gentle slope about 200 meters away from the three-story building.
This building has just been repaired and there is no time to install living facilities.
Now it has become the base union hall, mainly used to organize personnel in the base to go out to search for supplies or work in the base. It is a rare workplace in the end times.
Lu Yao also saw the container area mentioned by Li Zui and Chu Li. Large containers were closely packed together to form simple houses for people to live in.
The environment here is not very good. The road is also a loess road. There are puddles, silt, garbage, and feces on the ground. The smell is also very strong.
But in the Dawn Base, the container area is considered a good place. There are more chaotic areas below.
Those uninhabited scenic area buildings can accommodate more than 20 people in a room. Stealing, fighting, bullying the weak, anything can happen.
This base is still under development, and because the base commander died unexpectedly, there is still a power-sharing game inside, and there is not enough energy to properly settle the personnel inside the base.
Lu Yao didn't know what the Hope Base in Jinyao City was like, but Lu Mingxiao said that all bases were similar, which was probably what he meant.
In less than half an hour, the four of them walked around the Dawn Base.
Lu Yao concluded that the Dawn Base was not suitable for building a new station.
