The other person frowned slightly, and their tone became even colder.
"Didn't anyone tell you when you came here that you can't rent a place here without a job?"
Lu Yuan was immediately taken aback: "But finding a job is so difficult, can't you provide any accommodation opportunities for newcomers like us?"
The other person shook their head: "Without proof of employment, the system will not allocate housing to you. So your top priority now is to find a job immediately and then show your work ID here in order to rent a house."
"Is there any other way?" Lu Yuan was extremely anxious. He was unwilling to continue waiting in that abandoned construction site on the edge of District Nine.
The temperature and environment there were extremely poor, making it impossible for anyone to live there. Just one night made Lu Yuan feel uncomfortable all over, not to mention the others.
Although they don't lack food, they will have nowhere to live and no guarantee of safety if their housing problem isn't solved.
However, the man still said irritably, "Anyway, let me tell you, without a work permit you can't rent a house here, let alone buy one. You have to have a certain amount of assets to buy a house, so I advise you to find a job as soon as possible before coming here, and don't waste your time."
Lu Yuan glanced at the other person's table, then stepped forward to stop them and secretly handed them half a bag of candy.
The other person was startled, glanced down at the cold box in their hand, and suddenly a look of surprise appeared in their eyes. They looked up at Lu Yuan.
"This is……"
Lu Yuan pointed to a picture of a little girl on the table.
"This must be your daughter!"
A rare smile appeared on the man's face as he gently picked up the photograph and brushed away the dust.
"This is my daughter, but this is the last photo of her taken in the apocalypse."
The man's tone returned to normal, and he spoke after a moment of calm.
"Alright, for the sake of this candy, I'll give you a little advice. Whether you listen to it or not is up to you."
Lu Yuan quickly expressed his gratitude: "Thank you so much."
Then the other person opened the candy box, took out half of it, and gave it to the woman.
"I'll take him inside to talk for a while. Keep an eye on him for me."
The woman looked at the candy on the table, immediately took one out, and popped it into her mouth.
"Go ahead, I'll keep an eye on things for you."
Then the male agent nodded to Lu Yuan and led him to a small room next door.
"Jobs are not easy to find in District 9, and the houses here are very expensive, but the living conditions are very poor. If you want to find a place to settle down here, I would not recommend it."
Lu Yuan looked up at the other person and asked, "Where are we going?"
The other person pointed to the map on the wall.
"Come with me to District 8 in a bit. The house prices there aren't inflated. I know the local bigwigs, so I'll see if I can help you out. But let me make this clear: if I can't help, there's nothing I can do."
Lu Yuan gave the other person a grateful look.
