Su Tao choked on the spot, and after a long while she said, "Boss Gu, are you here to join in the fun? The properties under your name shouldn't be much less than mine."
Gu Mingchi said, "It seems that many people have come to ask about this today. I won't beat around the bush. I want to cut in line and book a one-bedroom apartment with you. Don't be in a hurry to refuse me. I can give you something that others can't."
Su Tao was amazed at his shamelessness, as he spoke so confidently about cutting in line and bribing people through the backdoor.
She also asked confidently: "Who are you ordering it for? For yourself? I don't welcome you."
Gu Mingchi's voice couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry:
"I don't need to go to your territory to escape disaster and survive. It's an order for an elder. Now, except for Taoyang, no place is safe. Moreover, the East District has been attacked many times recently. It's too turbulent and dangerous. My grandfather is too old, and I don't want him to follow me on the edge of a knife in this chaotic world."
These words stunned Su Tao. She couldn't imagine that someone like Gu Mingchi could have such a sincere filial heart.
"Boss Gu, you trust me too much. We are just partners, right? You put such an important person in my care. Aren't you afraid that I will use this as a threat and find a weakness in you?"
The other party was silent for two seconds, then said firmly:
"Others might, but you're Su Tao, you won't."
Su Tao laughed angrily: "Why, you think I'm kind, in this broken era, kindness is not a good word, don't think I can't do it."
Gu Mingchi said, "Don't misinterpret my meaning. Let's get back to the basics of this matter. Just treat this as a business deal. Book me a one-bedroom apartment, and I'll give you one of the following two rewards."
"First, I have a group of young people with special abilities and special skills. I can give you a list of them. You can choose one from them. I guarantee his loyalty."
"Second, I'll give you five crystal cores for evolving zombies."
When Su Tao heard the first one, she was envious but also sneered at it. She could accumulate talents slowly.
When I heard the second one, my face became a little stiff.
Ah, these five are indeed a bit too many.
"You can consider it, or you can bargain with me like before, but I'm going to be honest with you. You can add something else as your second condition. I really only have five crystal cores, and these five were obtained at the cost of hundreds of my brothers' lives."
Su Tao rubbed her face: "Is your grandpa easy to get along with?"
Gu Mingchi paused and said, "He has Alzheimer's disease and often mistakes people for each other. He likes to sing and plays the same song on repeat. You can decide for yourself whether he's a good match for you."
Su Tao opened her mouth and said, "Come over and bring a nurse. I don't have anyone who has time to help take care of me."
"Yes, the caregiver is an honest person. I have carefully selected him. He will not cause you any trouble."
Su Tao scratched his head: "I'll get back to you after I've thought about it."
After hanging up the phone, Su Tao told Zhuang Wan and Qian Rongrong what happened.
Zhuang Wan said, "I don't like Gu Mingchi, but I'm just talking about the facts. It doesn't matter whether I rent the house to someone else or an old man. As long as Gu Mingchi doesn't make trouble, it's fine."
Su Tao thought about it and agreed. She could also get five crystal cores for free, so she was a winner no matter how she looked at it.
Including the original one, she now has six crystal cores. When she has ten, she will leave Taoyang and find a way to expand her territory.
Plantation, plantation, I hope it can be done before Wu Zhen comes.
After considering it, Su Tao immediately sent a message to Gu Mingchi:
"I choose the second one. Have someone send the old man over within three days. You don't have to come in person. I'll arrange a room for him in advance. You have to pay the rent on time every month. I'll have Zhuang Wan send you a rental agreement later. Please let the nurse know about it in advance."
After a while, Gu Mingchi replied to her:
"Okay, happy cooperation, Boss Su. I'll have someone deliver the five crystal cores at once."
Guan Zining suddenly appeared and saw the news, and was surprised:
"I can't believe it. Gu is such a filial son. Five crystal cores are a sky-high price. He gave it to me right away."
Zhuang Wan said, "Even the worst people have relatives and weaknesses. If I were Gu Mingchi, I would rather suffer outside and work hard to send my family to Taoyang. They'll have good food and drink and no life-threatening conditions. How reassuring!"
Qian Rongrong propped up her chin and looked out the window. Downstairs in the office building, the tenants' children were playing jump rope. It was a peaceful scene.
"Yes, there's war and famine and water shortages outside, but here we are still the same as always. We don't seem to be from the same world."
Several people sighed at the same time, fortunately they lived in Taoyang and did not have to suffer the hardships outside.
Before dinner, Pei Dong personally brought back Ye Xiaqing's military cap and ashes.
When everyone saw the bloodstained military cap and the small box, they turned their eyes away, unable to bear to look.
Su Tao took the urn and the military cap and walked around the office building, stopping in front of each window for a while.
Finally, the ashes were returned to Pei Dong, and the military cap was placed on the bookshelf in the office exhibition area. The entire office building can be seen from this angle.
After doing all this, Pei Dong suddenly stopped and saluted Su Tao, Zhuang Wan and the others:
"On behalf of Xia Qing, I want to thank you for helping her fulfill this wish."
Su Tao and the others didn't dare to accept this gift, and hurriedly tried to stop her.
Pei Dong insisted and explained that there would be a collective funeral next week and he would pick everyone up to go and bid farewell to Xia Qing and other soldiers.
Su Tao looked at Pei Dong's car driving away downstairs, and suddenly wondered when this apocalypse would end.
She sighed, it seemed like it had just begun.
That night, Su Tao stayed up all night to add an elevator to the second apartment building and opened two more one-bedroom apartments.
One set is kept for Mr. Gu, and the other is rented out.
In addition, a summary was made. Taoyang now has 64 rooms and currently has 97 tenants living in them.
There are exactly 50 rooms at Panliu Mountain, which can accommodate 65 people at the same time.
This number of people can be counted as part of her upgrade requirements.
Su Tao also calculated that if all the rooms in Panliu Mountain could be occupied, the rental income would be 28,000 federal coins a day.
That’s 840,000 federal coins a month!
This does not include profits from catering, fuel, etc.!
Panliu Mountain is indeed her purse.
Su Tao was so excited while doing the accounts that she wished she could open a business right there.
She held herself back and teleported to Panliu Mountain with Lin Fangzhi, the cat and the dog.
Last time we didn’t have enough money, so we hadn’t built a laundry room yet.
After the business opened, we had to wash the bedding in time after the tenants moved out every day to keep it clean and hygienic.
The laundry room Su Tao built is located in the central area of the second floor of the staff dormitory. It is equipped with three washing machines, three dryers, a washbasin and a mop pool against the wall, and shelves are hung on the wall to store cleaning supplies.
The entire laundry room cost only about 10,000 federal coins to build, with the bulk of the cost going to the washing machine and dryer.
Su Tao walked around the hotel and bought some small things. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She was looking forward to the opening day.
Heizhima was as curious about new things as ever. He went into the laundry room and looked around like a patrolman.
Su Tao found it funny and watched it jumping on the washing machine.
Suddenly, her eyes blurred, and this time, she really found that her vision had turned into black sesame again.
Black sesame jumped from the washing machine into the sink.
Her vision suddenly jumped, and she was so scared that her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.
