Chapter 83 Just Because He’s Your Dad
Xia Yan placed the four-piece sets he had received on the cashier's counter. There were 53 sets in total, and Xiong Xiong distributed them.
I thought that buying the four-piece set would be enough, but I didn't expect Xiongxiong to still stand beside me and refuse to leave.
"Anything else?"
"Yes, boss."
"Go ahead."
"Okay, boss. We have quite a few customers staying in the store right now. Floors 1 to 5 include the restaurant, West Halls 1 and 2, and the lobby. If we put an air conditioner or fan in every place, the electricity consumption for a month will reach the next charging standard."
"Well, go on."
"And you don't have that many air conditioners left. The supply is outstripping the demand. Now the outdoor temperature has reached 70°C. Many guests staying here have high body temperatures without the cooling air from the air conditioners, making them very susceptible to heat stroke. If this isn't discovered right away, in a closed, high-temperature environment..."
"Based on various considerations, I think you could consider central air conditioning, which has an additional fresh air system and air purification function. It consumes less electricity than a standalone air conditioner, and when winter comes, you can also turn on the heat, making it very cost-effective."
Xiongxiong finished expressing his opinion in one breath, folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen, and stood still obediently.
"This idea..." Xia Yan fell into deep thought.
If you purchase central air conditioning, it means that you have to take back the air conditioners and fans that you previously rented out.
Indeed, the temperature has been high these past two days, and there is a sour and foul smell on the customers coming in and out. The new customers have been staying in the lobby to enjoy the air conditioning and are unwilling to leave.
'How many points does central air conditioning require?'
[According to Xiongxiong's requirements, 30,000 points are required]
Xia Yan took a breath.
Ridiculously expensive.
'It's too expensive...'
[It is still practical. As the hotel upgrades and the floors continue to rise, it can be installed for free.]
【One-time purchase, lifelong service】
[Warm in winter and cool in summer, a must-have for opening a store]
After hearing the system's three consecutive sales pitches, Xia Yan knew that it wanted to use these 30,000 points to boost sales.
"Even if you say it's all very good, I still think it's too expensive. Is there anything free?"
Xia Yan regretted spending a lot of money to upgrade Xiong Xiong, and she felt more and more that the two were colluding to covet her hard-earned wealth.
She started with 30,000 points, and after spending them all, she only had 14,500 points left.
14500, wow, that seems like quite a lot.
Anyway, these points are free, so it seems like a good idea to use them to renovate the hotel.
[Free private room with central air conditioning]
Xia Yan's gaze fell on Ye Qizhen and others who had come downstairs and were sitting on the floor to cool off. They sat in a circle, talking and dancing, with the crystal core placed on the floor in the middle, shining brightly and captivatingly.
The young men, leaving behind their past decadence, are full of vigor and vitality, like an endless field. The tall weeds, scorched yellow by the sun, have new green shoots sprouting from their roots, growing everywhere and swaying in the wind.
"If you can add floor heating for winter heating, I'll agree."
【...】
【no problem】
[Ding, you have paid 30,000 points, account balance: 14,500]
[Central air conditioning is being installed, estimated time: 5 minutes]
"My dear Bear, you don't have any other suggestions this time?"
Xiongxiong bent down and bowed.
"The boss is generous, the boss makes a fortune, the boss earns tens of millions of points a year."
Xia Yan waved his hands, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Okay, when you deliver the four-piece set later, remember to take back the air conditioner and fan. They may be needed in the future."
Xiongxiong called 001, and together they went upstairs to distribute the four sets of clothes.
Five minutes later, with a slight vibration coming from the soles of his feet, an interface popped up in front of Xia Yan's eyes.
[The central air conditioner has been installed and entered the operation platform (you can enter it in the store operation interface or call it directly later)]
[1. Ultra-quiet cooling mode. 2. Ultra-quiet heating mode. 3. Invincible sleep mode. 4. Turn on the fresh air system]
Xia Yan checked 1 and 4 and confirmed.
Soon, the temperature in the room became comfortable and refreshing. There was neither the biting cold wind from the independent air conditioner nor the obvious audible noise from the air outlet.
It was as if the entire room cooled down in an instant. Before I knew it, I stopped sweating and my mood relaxed.
At the same time, in a small second floor house in the southeast corner 15 minutes away from the hotel, Feng Bei was holding Qi Hua's sleeve and crying.
"Captain Qi Hua, please help me. I can only lend you three crystal cores. Considering we've been together for so long and I've never been a drag on the team, please help me!"
Wang Xuewei grabbed Qi Hua's other sleeve in frustration and glared at her fiercely.
"Don't give it to her! Her father is capable of doing such a thing, why should he help her? Besides, she and her father often bully the people in the base!"
Hearing her say this, Feng Bei pushed her away crying, "You're talking nonsense! I didn't do that! You all know what kind of person my dad is! Could I have stopped him?! I was killing zombies outside when he was causing trouble in the restaurant! Why should everything he did be blamed on me? Why!"
"Just because he's your dad!" Wang Xuewei steadied herself, her hair standing on end in anger, and she shouted back.
Qi Hua was stuck in the middle, remaining silent and letting the two of them pull each other back and forth.
"But my dad has helped you too! If it weren't for my dad, you wouldn't be able to leave the base! Qi Hua, if it weren't for the fever-reducing medicine my dad brought you, you would have died long ago!"
Feng Bei screamed hysterically, looking reckless like a red-eyed rabbit that was forced into a dead end.
"Qi Hua, you should have a conscience! If it weren't for my dad's insistence on assigning the team this mission, how could you and your family be alive today?! Now everyone is blaming my dad? Even though he took half of the crystal cores, are you still alive because of my dad?!"
Yes, they all forgot that if it weren't for Feng Tianxi, they wouldn't have gotten the mission, let alone bought the supplies at such a low price. How could their families have survived...
Feng Bei was breathing heavily, her eyes were red and swollen, and she looked at her former teammates with great anger and sadness. Now that you are up, you have forgotten how her father helped her back then, right?
"Don't say that... I'll give you my crystal core. You don't have to return it. Just consider it as our family's belated gratitude for your father's rescue back then."
Qi Hua spoke hoarsely as he gently shook off the two people's hands, took out three crystal cores from the inner pocket with tight stitching sewn by his mother, and handed them over.
Feng Bei looked at the first-level crystal core in his palm and laughed out loud, with a hint of sarcasm, "Captain Qi, your family is only worth three first-level crystal cores? What I need is a second-level crystal core!"
