Chapter 226 The Fear of the Unknown
"Boss Xia" sent Chu Wanfu away and hid behind the white fog, wiping his sweat.
It’s not that I’m afraid, it’s mainly because my personality is exposed.
It didn't expect that the next customer would be Chu Wanfu. It was just careless.
It seems I have to speak a few seconds later...
Come on, let’s go to the next one.
I won’t go into details about the next three customers I invited, as they are all powerful people from various places.
After sending the customers into the virtual space, it did not reappear but went directly to find Xia Yan.
【The customer has arrived, please go and greet him】
Huh? So fast?
"Let's go." Xia Yan finished the crisp tube in one gulp, wiped her fingers, and waited for the system to teleport her to Island No. 4.
Three seconds after she arrived, the figures of customers slowly appeared on the beach in front of the villa.
Xia Yan smiled with all her heart, "Welcome everyone, this is the private island owned by the resort hotel."
Opposite her, five teams were standing 2 meters apart, looking cautiously at the unfamiliar environment. Thick white fog was still surrounding them, and except for Xia Yan, they could not see each other clearly.
The outfit of the man in front really attracted Xia Yan's attention. He had many colorful long-tail feathers on his head, and his face was painted with complex lines with colored paint. He was barefoot and shirtless, looking primitive and mysterious.
As he walked, small flying birds flashed faintly among his trembling feathers, so that Xia Yan was unable to notice Chu Wanfu behind him at the first time.
She withdrew her gaze and briefly introduced the villa. With a click, she turned on the switch. Bright light illuminated the entire space, revealing a large space and all kinds of household items.
"As you can see, the villa not only has sufficient water and electricity, but also 24-hour air conditioning, so you can take a hot shower at any time. Just imagine, after a tiring day, taking a comfortable hot shower and sleeping soundly on a soft bed – how wonderful it is."
As Xia Yan spoke, he turned on the faucet, letting them see the clear water flowing out. They walked up the stairs, pushed open the doors of each room, and pressed their ten fingers on the soft mattress, showing its elasticity and softness.
Seeing the amazement in everyone's eyes, she continued, "You can walk around and watch. Please meet in the lobby in five minutes."
No matter how much you say, it's not as good as them feeling it themselves.
Xia Yan walked past them with a smile on his face. When he saw Chu Wanfu, he was stunned for a moment. Thinking that they couldn't see each other's faces, it would be rude to call his name, so he nodded again.
But Chu Wanfu didn't expect him to take the initiative to speak, "Boss Xia, is the flow of time here the same as outside? I have some urgent matters to deal with."
Apparently, the others were also curious about this question.
She replied, "Please rest assured, the time you're waiting and visiting is static. It's the same when you came in, and it's the same when you leave. Other than that, time flows at the same speed inside and outside."
Then the hospital's affairs will not be affected, and the two lines will not conflict.
Chu Wanfu didn't feel relieved after getting the answer he wanted, and even felt a chill on his back.
She can even control time, and the five groups of people are obviously not from the same place, which means she can appear anywhere at any time...
He suddenly thought of the fake "Boss Xia" he had met before, who had the same ability as the real boss. Could that be her special ability as well?
Endless food, water and electricity coming from nowhere, absolutely safe hotels, and even private islands for rent... It's a terrifying ability, completely beyond the reach of human beings.
Chu Wanfu looked at her leaving back, and a fear of the unknown came over him.
Is it really appropriate to work with her?
...
"Uncle Ji, this water looks really unpolluted!" Xiao Li scooped up a handful of water, and clear water dripped through his fingers.
They occasionally take on the job of purifying water. Basically, even slightly turbid water can meet the standards for drinking directly in the apocalypse. Water of this level is absolutely fine to drink directly!
Dean Ji could not hide his excitement. As a biologist, he paid more attention to the issue of human survival.
The first thing that came to my mind when I saw the clean water was to use an instrument to test the pollution level. After cracking it, everyone can drink clean water!
He took out a small medicine bottle from the inside pocket of his jacket, poured the few pills inside into his pocket, washed the bottle under the faucet, and filled a small bottle with clean water to take back for research.
His companion hesitated, then finally leaned over to whisper in his ear, "Dean Ji, I think we can rent this place. The water and electricity are stable, it's spacious, safe, and there's no one to disturb us. It can be used as a laboratory after some cleaning."
Dean Ji: ...You are young, are you sure you can handle it?
Xiao Li: Delete it and let the boss come.
Xia Yan was sitting idly on the sofa on the first floor, thinking he had to wait a little longer, but when he turned around, he saw them coming downstairs together without any prior arrangement.
Although the few of them didn't know each other, they still felt it was safer to act in a group.
Seeing the first group of people leave in a hurry, the others followed with trepidation.
"Everyone, are you ready to watch now?" Xia Yan stood up.
Dean Ji asked, "I've understood everything. Boss Xia, how are the rents regulated?"
"The rent starts from a monthly basis and is 180,000 points." Xia Yan took out a brochure from the system grid and handed it over. The detailed information was introduced in it.
When Chu Wanfu saw that the regulations stipulated that a villa could only accommodate ten residents, he couldn't help but look at Xia Yan.
What a profiteer, the rules are set with almost no loopholes.
This directly blocks the possibility of some people reselling the villa's living qualifications to the public. If Boss Xia did not have this rule, not only the villa, but even the beach outside would be full of people, with no space to step on.
She has abundant resources, but only collects the crystal cores that should be earned.
He was lazy and idle all day, never offering a helping hand, yet he never turned away any guest who only stayed a few days, acting like an outsider. Could he be on vacation?
Chu Wanfu flicked the brochure, thinking that his idea was ridiculous.
After careful consideration of many aspects, he felt that Boss Xia had no intention of getting involved in politics, nor would he set up his own force to oppose them. He was a neutral party and a powerful presence that could be cooperated with.
Chu Wanfu, who had taken care of himself, said, "Boss Xia, I'll rent three villas."
Dean Ji was surprised. "We'll rent one too for six months and pay the points now."
The head of the base with the feather headdress gritted his teeth and said, "I want to rent one too."
How many apartments are there in total?
Five sets.
It seems that the three groups have finished dividing up?
The remaining two groups of people looked at each other. Although their faces were covered with white mist, one could still see the surprise and anger behind them.
"Boss Xia, this isn't fair. He's renting three apartments by himself. What are we renting? Air?"
"Exactly, you think we're just runners-up? Who doesn't have a few crystal cores? Anyone who can get here must be powerful, right? Don't try to monopolize things and bully others. Be careful or I'll smash your heads off."
The fifth customer took out a handful of level five crystal cores and weighed them up and down with a gloomy look in his eyes.
