"Where are you going to collect building materials? Will you pass by Panliu Mountain?" Su Tao asked.
"Panliu Mountain? Is your new territory built?"
Su Tao sent him a few photos of Panliu Mountain and said generously:
"It's open now. If you're passing by, you're welcome to come and eat, stay, and refuel. It's all free."
Shi Zijin could imagine her smug little face and said with a smile:
"I haven't seen him for a while and he's become a big boss. If the building materials collection goes smoothly, he will pass through Panliu Mountain according to the original route. Otherwise, he will have to take a long detour to an unplanned base to collect them."
Su Tao glanced at the scorching sun outside the window and felt a little worried for him:
"Will this long detour delay our return to base? It's July now, and the temperature will probably climb even higher in another half month or a month. Can you handle the heat on the road?"
Sometimes Su Tao is unwilling to go to places without air conditioning. She finds it painful to walk the distance from the apartment building to the cafeteria.
The temperature in Taoyang is slightly lower than outside. It is hard to imagine what kind of high-temperature purgatory it is outside the base.
Shi Zijin said, "It will be a little difficult, but fortunately we have plenty of water, thanks to you. Also, along the way we've encountered countless teams heading south for water, all heading for Dongyang after hearing the news. I suspect they'll pass through Panliu Mountain, so perhaps you could make some preparations."
This is a reminder to her that there is money to be made!
There are many wealthy people in the northern bases, and those who can come south to ask for water in dangerous times are all powerful big customers.
If she can deal with this group of people, she won't have to compete with the old site for customers.
Su Tao immediately smiled and said, "My dear Major General, you are really one of us. You always think of me when it comes to good things. When you come to Panliu Mountain, I will treat you to a good meal. I have hired a chef to arrange a five-star dinner for you before the end of the world."
Shi Zijin knew that she was talking nonsense again, so he warned her:
"While making money, you also have to protect yourself. Business is bound to be full of competition and even retaliation. The manager of the old supply station is called Tan Yong. He has some background, but his business practices are unscrupulous and he's a bit cunning. You have to be careful. If you encounter a problem you can't handle, don't try to handle it on your own. Come to me."
Su Tao nodded repeatedly.
"That's it for now. I'm going to do the final handover of the 'bone wings' later. After that, I'll take care of some miscellaneous matters and then I can return."
Su Tao suddenly asked: "How does Chang Jing want to study 'bone wings'?"
Dismemberment? Vivisection? Medicinal use?
No matter which one, she recalled the appearance of Bone Wing, who looked so much like a human, and always had the illusion that he was harming his compatriots.
Shi Zijin said, "I know what you're thinking. It's neither of those things. Chang Jing wants to decipher the mutation patterns of the mutant zombies, so they're injecting nutrients into it to accelerate its growth so they can observe and record it. Now that it's the first mutant zombie, it's extremely valuable for living research, so we can't let it die so easily."
Su Tao thought, since we are studying a living thing, we have to keep a close eye on it. If it runs out, it will become a horror movie.
After hanging up the phone, Su Tao teleported to Panliu Mountain and explained the key tasks to Ma Dapao:
"There will be a lot of convoys heading south through Panliu Mountain soon. Please hold on to these customers and don't let them go."
When Ma Dapao heard that a customer was about to come to his door, his eyes sparkled: "Don't worry, soliciting customers is my old skill, I'm familiar with it."
"But don't bring too many people. The Panliu Mountain Hotel can only accommodate 65 people per day. Also, be careful that the people at the old station don't give you a hard time. If they have any problems, tell them to contact me. Finally, you can buy a car for transportation and the money will be reimbursed. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome to hire a car to run back and forth every time."
Ma Dapao was very excited when he heard that someone was going to buy him a car.
Which man doesn’t love cars? The reason why he doesn’t love cars is because he doesn’t have money!
Su Tao was about to go back when Ma Dapao stopped her and said with some embarrassment:
"Boss, when are the ingredients coming to the kitchen? Chef Qin's been washing the dishes for the past couple of days and he's so bored he's been nagging me to find him something to do. I told him to take over the jobs of the front desk girl and the cleaning lady if I can't find him. I just want him to start washing the big spoon right away. It'll be good for him and everyone else."
Before Su Tao could say anything, she saw Master Qin running towards her from a distance. She had a bad feeling and said:
"I'll get it as soon as possible. You hold him steady first."
Then he immediately slipped back to Taoyang.
Sure enough, she didn't slip away for long, and Master Qin missed her and had to grab Ma Dapao to keep him alive:
"Manager Ma, is there anything else I can do? If I don't work for a day, I won't be able to eat or sleep well. It's too uncomfortable."
After returning to Taoyang, Su Tao began to worry about the kitchen ingredients in Panliu Mountain.
Vegetables can be purchased directly from Taoyang Plantation, but meat has to be bought outside.
It seems that we need to find a purchasing staff to be responsible for this matter for Panliushan, otherwise she will be very busy when the amount of ingredients increases.
After thinking about it, she saw Lin Fangzhi sitting at the desk reading a book obediently, and waved with a smile:
"Fang Zhi, come here."
Lin Fangzhi obediently put down his book and walked over to sit opposite her. He looked at her seriously and expectantly with his doe eyes, waiting for her to speak.
Su Tao asked him: "Is studying stressful?"
Lin Fangzhi thought about it carefully and shook his head.
Su Tao guided him: "Say it out loud, don't use body language."
Lin Fangzhi pouted, but still tried to organize his words: "Not big, I can learn it quickly."
Su Tao praised him: "Fang Zhi, you are really, very smart. Teacher Sheng also praised you to me. I believe that you will be able to talk to anyone smoothly in the future. Now I have some problems and need your help, but I need you to talk to other people, even strangers. Can you accept it?"
She wanted Lin Fangzhi to manage Panliu Mountain's supplies and various purchases.
On the one hand, a purchase is indeed necessary, but more importantly, she wants Lin Fangzhi to take a step towards the outside world instead of living in her world forever.
Lin Fangzhi understood, his eyes widened, and after a while he asked:
"Can I help you?"
Su Tao saw the surprise in his eyes and asked with a smile: "Why can't you do it? You are someone I trust. I would not feel at ease if I gave this matter to someone else."
Lin Fangzhi's eyebrows lit up and he nodded vigorously: "I want to help you!"
Su Tao peeled a piece of his favorite candy and fed it to him:
"Great! Now, please help me. Go find Qian Lin and tell her you want 20 kilograms of vegetables, any variety. Once you get them, store them in your space and then come back to me. No body language allowed."
Lin Fangzhi had some resistance, but when she thought that he could help her, the little resistance she had disappeared.
Su Tao watched his back as he ran towards the plantation, then called Qian Lin and explained the situation.
Qian Lin sighed, "You really care about Fang Zhi. You went through so much trouble to train him when a phone call to me could have solved the problem."
Su Tao said, "I'm fine, but I'm sorry for the hard work. From now on, Fang Zhi will be in charge of purchasing vegetables from Panliu Mountain. He speaks slowly and sometimes can't express himself clearly, so please give him more time and patience."
Qian Lin said straightforwardly, "No matter how small the matter is, Fang Zhi is also very sympathetic. Anyone who sees his delicate little face will have to be more patient and listen to him finish his story."
Twenty minutes later, Lin Fangzhi came back sweating profusely. When he saw her, he took her hand:
"Peach, look."
I want to show her the vegetables I brought back.
Su Tao saw the neatly arranged baskets of vegetables in his space and praised him generously. At the same time, she felt a little relieved that he was really trying hard to grow slowly.
