Chapter 14: The Second Store



The storage room was specially used to store things from the orphanage. Some of the clothes in it belonged to the kindergarten teachers who used to take care of the children here. When Xu Bai was cleaning up, he put all the usable things in the storage room.

"You can pick out some clothes that suit you. As for the clothes that fit you best, I'll bring some back for you when I go out."

It’s not that you can’t buy these things in convenience stores, but it’s extremely expensive to find and buy them through convenience stores.

In the past half month, Xu Bai had managed to pay back a lot of the energy she owed by farming and selling food, which made her health improve a lot.

She didn't want to owe a large sum of money because of such a small matter.

According to her memories of her previous life, she will awaken her superpowers tonight, and she will be safer after awakening her superpowers.

At this moment, Xu Bai was not guarding against zombies, but humans.

"Thank you, City Lord. If it's just a convenience, I'll trouble you." Xu Qing quickly agreed and went forward with He Minxing to choose clothes.

Most of those who are willing to work as kindergarten teachers in the orphanage are of a certain age.

He Minxing picked out several sets of clothes for changing at once, but Xu Qing was over 20 years old and none of the clothes fit her. In addition, she was thin, so the clothes here were loose when she wore them.

I had to use the ropes from my bathrobe to tie it up, but I didn't have any other choice now.

When they were changing clothes, Xu Bai was not inside. She stood outside the storage room and looked through her personal information in the system.

Rescue System:

Host: Xu Bai

Energy value: -

Number of residents rescued: 4

Owned stores: 1

Assets owned: 2 residential buildings, a convenience store, a warehouse, and 200 pieces of farmland.

You can view the number of loyal members and their loyalty levels.

Xu Bai clicked to check, and the first thing that came into view was Jiao Yangyang at the top with 95%, Jiao Nanmu with 89%, Xu Qing with 40%, and He Minxing with 30%.

Xu Bai raised her eyebrows. It was understandable that Jiao Yangyang was young and loyal. Jiao Nanmu's loyalty had been increasing day by day as they got along and witnessed the changes in the base. But she didn't expect that Xu Qing and He Minxing had already become thirty to forty percent loyal on just the first day they met.

Xu Bai clicked on the detailed information of the residents and saw the information of Xu Qing and He Minxing from childhood to adulthood. He found that they were two law-abiding good people. Even though the end of the world had come, they had never bullied others. They could be said to be two honest people.

After closing the message, I saw that they had changed their clothes.

Seeing Xu Qing’s clothes that didn’t fit him, he silently listed clothes as his new target for stockpiling next time.

It is May now and the weather is getting hotter. In a few months it will become extremely cold and we need to prepare clothes.

Perhaps because he had never seen Xu Bai smile before, Xu Qing was a little nervous, and he and He Minxing hurried to help Jiao Nanmu with the work.

Xu Bai went to exercise.

After waiting for two hours, her fast food restaurant was finished.

After the fast food restaurant was built, it made a loud noise just like the convenience store. At the same time, the number of stores on Xu Bai's personal information board increased from one to two.

The fast food restaurant uses glass doors. From the outside, the interior is elegantly decorated. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a former Internet celebrity restaurant. When you walk into the store, a cool breeze blows, dispelling the summer heat and making you feel a lot more refreshed.

Xu Bai walked into the kitchen and was very satisfied with the complete set of kitchen utensils.

It was the first time that Xu Qing and He Minxing heard such a sound. They were so scared that they thought zombies were attacking. They quickly picked up the bricks in their hands and while looking for other weapons to defend themselves, they pulled Jiao Yangyang and ran towards the house.

Seeing Jiao Nanmu still sorting out the ruins, Xu Qing became anxious, bit his lip, and hurriedly ran back to pull Jiao Nanmu.

"Brother Jiao, why are you still standing there? Run! The zombies are coming. It's safer if we hide back in the house. Maybe we can escape." Xu Qing was very depressed. She never expected that the zombies that were not close to this place would suddenly attack. There must be no safe place in the world now.

Jiao Nanmu was caught off guard and was pulled by someone, staggering. Fortunately, he stood firm in time and did not fall down.

"It's okay, don't be nervous. That was the commotion caused by the city lord. I'll take you to see it." Jiao Nanmu thought about the construction of this store that started yesterday. It took a whole day. You know, the previous convenience store only took one night. No one knew what kind of store it was, but it took a whole day.

Jiao Nanmu was excited and quickly called Jiao Yangyang over.

"Is this the commotion caused by the city lord?" Xu Qing hesitated, but after thinking about it, he took He Minxing's hand and followed him.

The fast food restaurant and convenience store were separated by a small street, outside the original orphanage. However, after the recent road construction and house renovation, the outside area was also included in the scope of Shuguang City. Therefore, Xu Qing and He Minxing did not see the store under construction.

The construction materials were purchased from the system. According to the system's feedback, this kind of cement and bricks were made from a higher plane. They are shockproof and durable, and can better resist damage. Ordinary explosives will have no effect on them.

Xu Bai first bought some, and after the construction was completed, he used an axe and other sharp tools to chop the bricks hard, but found that not even a knife mark was left.

I decisively bought a large batch to build the wall.

These days, Jiao Nanmu's job is to build a very high and long wall.

Originally, Xu Bai had her eyes on the protective shields, but the prices were too expensive and she simply could not afford them. As a second choice, she chose the cheaper ones and bought them first. She would buy them later when she had more energy and then buy the protective shields. With the two combined, the base would be safer.

Therefore, Xu Bai transformed all nearby areas into the base area.

The cement used for road construction is ordinary cement, which is said to be a defective product from other people and is cheaper. The price of buying one ton is only enough to buy one-third of the protective function.

When they arrived, they saw a brand new house. Through the glass door, they saw Xu Bai inside. The shop was about 40 to 50 square meters in size, with many potted plants placed inside, which matched with the wooden tables, and looked quite elegant.

This is actually a restaurant!

Although it is a little small, the environment is beautiful. The moment you step in, a faint fragrance hits you in the face, which makes you relax.

"You're here."

"Ms. He, this is where you need to work next."

"You can ask Xiao Jiao to go to the warehouse and get the ingredients for you every day."

"I'm waiting for you to show off your skills now."

He Minxing was very surprised and agreed immediately. But is such a good environment going to be used to open a fast food restaurant?

He Minxing hesitated for a moment and then asked.

This is a question that not only He Minxing wants to ask, but several other people also want to ask.

"It's the end of the world, why would it be so particular?" Xu Bai said in a flat tone. Once all the shops here are built one by one, the citizens will have food to eat, clothes to wear and houses to live in, then they can consider restaurants with higher prices.

Now, there is still a long way to go.
