Chapter 374 Not Accepted
How could Xia Yan accept it?
Seeing that she kept smiling and shaking her head, he just took off the postcard that was clipped on it and stuffed it carefully into his handbag.
The people around her looked at her with red eyes and seemed to be choking with breathing.
"Boss Xia, don't overthink it," Sang Zhengyi sighed. "The base has been getting better and better lately. We have food on hand, so we'll never go hungry again. When we heard you were opening, everyone worked all morning to put together a box of presentable gifts. Just accept it. This is everyone's way of thanking you."
If it weren't for the horribly cheap meals in the restaurant, how could they have managed to survive until now and have enough food in hand?
When a disaster that is beyond human control comes, who will still be rich?
The people around Sang Zhengyi echoed: "Yes, don't think these things are precious. We just picked them up when we went out to kill zombies-"
"What are you picking up? We picked them all by ourselves!"
"——Ah, yes, look at my mouth, I'm just talking nonsense, Boss Xia, please don't take it seriously!"
"Bang!"
When everyone heard the sound, they turned around and saw the store manager Xiongxiong holding a matchstick that was quickly burned to the end, scratching his head in embarrassment.
It said: "Accidentally lit."
Wow——
The fireworks exploded into colorful flowers above our heads, and after blooming, they fell into sparkling trailing meteors, which was very beautiful.
Just like Xia Yan’s current mood.
Everyone looked up at the fireworks. Xia Yan looked at them, scanning the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes, the brown freckles on the bridge of their nose, and the upturned corners of their mouth deeply enclosed in brackets.
The excited children running madly in the distance stopped, their bright eyes reflecting the gorgeous fireworks. Although fleeting, they still evoked the scene deep in their memories.
Not only did they come, but there were also pregnant women with big bellies and survivors who had finally managed to raise their flesh and blood, all looking at the sky.
A look of nostalgia appeared on his face.
Although Boss Xia wasn't the one who opened the cage, they will never forget the moment they saw her appear after the zombie horde, and the hope of redemption that suddenly filled their hearts...
After the fireworks fell, Xia Yan declined politely with a firm attitude. She had already accepted the gift, but she would definitely not accept the dried fruits and vegetables.
Rather than letting it gather dust in the system grid, it is better to be eaten by them.
Sang Zhengyi sighed again. The only one who could refuse food was Boss Xia.
Although I was rejected, I felt touched.
"Congratulations, Boss Xia, and a grand opening!"
Chu Wanfu's arrival dispelled the slightly depressed atmosphere, and his eyes quickly swept over the gift boxes in everyone's hands.
Being extremely intelligent, he quickly understood what was happening.
Chu Wanfu laughed and said, "I sent you a flower basket, you can't refuse it."
He clapped his hands, and a row of soldiers walked out from behind him, each holding the same brightly colored flowers.
There are also two red ribbons on it with various auspicious words written on them.
Xia Yan: "If you also send food, I will treat it equally and refuse it, but if it is flowers, then thank you General Chu."
Chu Wanfu laughed heartily.
When the auspicious time came, Xiong Xiong lowered his ears and ran to the salute with his paws to his mouth. He took a deep breath and shouted, "Fire the cannon~"
A little hand.
“All in!”
A row of salutes sounded one after another, exploding small balls of gray smoke in the air, and then fireworks were ignited.
“Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
"The fireworks are coming! The fireworks are coming!"
"Wow, it's so beautiful~"
"Look, Mom, I like it so much~"
A group of children raised their heads high, their little faces full of surprise, pointing their fingers above their heads, and wishing they could jump high.
The smell of fireworks was blown away by the sea breeze, forming small vortices that were invisible to the naked eye, slowly rising and being blown away.
Amid the noisy sounds, Xia Yan smiled as he opened the control panel and tapped the 'Recruit Customers' button.
【Flyers will be distributed soon, invitation duration is five minutes】
Is it distributed without discrimination?
What kind of question is this? Xia Yan frowned slightly and said, "Yes."
【04:59】
...
At the same time, people all over the world stopped what they were doing and looked up in astonishment at the virtual blue screen that suddenly appeared in the air.
"Hello everyone, I'm Boss Xia."
The moment the sound exploded in their ears, the unprepared people were agitated on the spot and waved their hands in fear to try to disperse it.
"What the hell? Go away! You'll attract zombies!"
The picture was within reach, but his fingers easily penetrated the air and could not touch anything, and his face turned pale.
"Please don't worry," a beautiful young woman walked out of the screen, smiling kindly and bowing slightly. "To ensure your safety, a safety shield has been established within ten meters of the promotional interface. Zombies cannot enter."
As soon as the words fell, a warm yellow light shield fell from the four corners of the screen.
Some survivors who were frantically running for their lives in the pile of zombies suddenly discovered that the zombies that were originally very close to them were suddenly "pushed" ten meters away by irresistible force.
They bent over, gasping for breath, and looked at the figure in the air.
"Boss Xia? Huh, have you heard of it?"
"No, who is she?"
"...having two eggs under his eyebrows means he can only vent his anger but not his vision."
The words "Boss Xia" were seen floating above the woman's head on the screen.
"...oh."
In other places, some people were fleeing frantically, and only when they were far away from the protective shield did they huddle in the corner and stare at the screen with vigilance in their eyes.
The woman on the screen didn't change her expression, and she didn't pursue him relentlessly, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
In the background behind the man who claims to be Boss Xia, fireworks are blooming in the air, and below them are a group of survivors with smiling faces and cheering.
If you look closely, you can see pregnant women with big bellies and young children inside.
What is this place?
Could this be another trap?
The scene tilted slightly upwards, revealing a magnificent new building. The woman disappeared, but a gentle voice rang out:
"This is the resort hotel's upscale restaurant. Today is the grand opening day, and we sincerely invite you all to come."
“It’s a resort hotel!”
The people standing on the ridge of the field, carrying plows and walking with difficulty on their thin legs, had surprise in their eyes. They hurriedly rolled up their sleeves, carefully stroked the dull cards on them, and looked up at the sky with longing.
“Bang!”
A whip wrapped in a gust of wind suddenly lashed down, leaving a long bloody mark on the thin arm.
"ah!"
"Lazy, huh? Did I tell you to rest?!" the man with a broken eyebrow and three white eyes cursed fiercely, whipping each of the people pulling the plow. "Look up, everyone! I'm letting you see. Look!"
Faint sobbing sounds were heard.
But he was not the one being beaten.
The man whipped the ground hard, kicking up clouds of dust.
"Who's crying? Stand up! I'll beat you to death."
