"Of course. Isn't it something worth looking forward to when I think that there will be delicious food waiting for me tomorrow?" Shi Jiu was still immersed in the joy of having just decorated the hotel. He did not notice Qin Lou's abnormality and asked while ordering food.
"Well... Boss, you're right. It's indeed worth looking forward to." Qin Lou looked thoughtfully at the breakfast that was no different from usual, but he inexplicably felt a little more anticipation in his heart.
After Shi Jiu quickly finished his breakfast, he suddenly remembered that the flower garden outside had not been watered today. He threw the plate into the recycling area, said goodbye to Qin Lou, and left.
"Duoduo, be careful and don't run around." In the lobby, Qi Yun took his daughter out to get some fresh air. Staying in the room every day is not good for the body. Duoduo has been in much better spirits in the past two days. Maybe she felt more comfortable subconsciously in a safe environment.
As soon as Shi Jiu came out, he saw Qi Yun and Duoduo. For a moment, he couldn't recognize when these guests came. Then he remembered that Gao Ziang and the other two had said that they were going back to pick up their families, so they must be the two of them.
However, Shi Jiu was still not used to chatting with others when he had nothing to do. He just nodded when they looked at him and went out the door.
"Mom, who is this beautiful sister?" Duoduo asked curiously. It was her first time to come out to the lobby to play, and she felt very novel about everything here.
Qi Yun picked up his daughter and watched Shi Jiu leave before softly saying, "Duoduo, our family has such a nice place to live and fresh meals to eat, all thanks to this sister!"
In Qi Yun's heart, she was extremely grateful to Shi Jiu and this hotel. If she had not arrived here in time, she could not imagine what would have happened in the base.
She touched her neck, where there was a gold necklace, which she bought when she married Gao Ziang. A few days ago, she had taken off all the gold jewelry on her body and gave them to Gao Ziang, just to exchange them for some supplies to ensure the survival of their family.
Unexpectedly, Gao Ziang came back that day and said that he had found a good place, and the gold necklace was finally returned to him.
Shi Jiu didn't notice the gratitude of the two people behind her. She rushed to the flower bed, thinking about watering all the flowers in the circle as soon as possible, so she picked up the hose and poured water on the flowers.
"Oh, that's not right. Can this flower use so much water?" When the water started to come out of the soil, Shi Jiu realized that this kind of flower should be watered with a watering can.
Then she slowly watered the flowers one by one, and accidentally touched the gray area next to it. Two days ago, it showed [Waiting for unlocking area], but after touching it today, it changed unexpectedly.
Unlock farmland area
Isn't this... the achievement of the plant expert from before? Shi Jiu remembered that after planting flowers, she unlocked the achievement reward. She thought it was about the farm, after all, she also had farmland on the farm.
"Is this a real farmland?" Shi Jiu put down the kettle and touched the gray area with his palm.
[Do you want to unlock the farmland area and blow away the fog? ]
She nodded yes, and immediately a large area of gray fog quickly faded away. A large piece of land appeared in front of her. It was boundless and she had no idea how big this land was.
"Is this also using future technology? It can be described as vast!" Shi Jiu looked at it in shock. This area was on the right side of the hotel, on the same side as the production buildings and restaurants.
She walked into the farmland, and the smell of the earth wafted in the air. But what could this area be used for? Her restaurant had a farm within the system, so it seemed like this wouldn't be of any use.
At this time, she heard an older voice in the lobby, calling "Duoduo", as if it was the elder of the child.
By the way, you can rent it to guests!
Although current guests will choose to fight zombies to earn crystal cores after checking in, there are always some elderly guests and guests who are not convenient to fight zombies for various other reasons who will appear in the hotel. They have no source of income and cannot stay for long.
They say land is the roots of the elderly, and isn't that true for people today? The land outside is polluted, and now nothing can be grown. Could the farmland here be the solution? However, I don't know if this field can be used to plant the seeds provided by the system.
Shi Jiu tried to take out a lettuce seed, which was easier to plant and took less time. She squatted down and buried the seed in the soil.
[Warning! The seeds produced by the system will grow in the same time as in real life when planted elsewhere. Do you want to continue planting?]
It seems possible. She can sell seeds and rent out land. Then she can post tasks on the electronic screen, recycle the mature agricultural and sideline products, and exchange them for the hotel's four-sided coins for them. This will promote the recovery of crystal cores and stabilize their settlement here.
She had noticed the apartment on the membership card before. The system must want to gather people in the hotel, otherwise the large area of gray fog around it cannot be just for decoration.
She had previously studied the Sifang Coins in the hotel. They were purely virtual currency. As long as she set a task, used her membership card to receive the task, and completed the task, she could get it. It could be used as a crystal core within the hotel.
As long as she controls the quantity and doesn't distribute too much so as not to affect people's enthusiasm for the crystal cores, Shi Jiu stood in front of the land, thinking through a series of things that would happen next, and was quite confident about the future development of the hotel.
Just as she was about to leave and continue watering the flowers, some black objects on the ground in the distance attracted her attention.
"The color doesn't seem right." When she walked forward and tried to pick up some soil to take a look, the system beeped and sounded an alarm.
[Attention! Attention! This area has been polluted and needs to be cleaned with a purification tree, otherwise it will be harmful to the human body!]
That purification tree she bought yesterday? Turns out this is what it does!
Shi Jiu quickly watered the remaining flowers, returned to the lobby, picked up the tablet and went to the land again. The purification tree that had been placed in the warehouse was still there. Shi Jiu moved it to the nearest contaminated land, and a small tree that was not even as tall as her thigh appeared.
"It's so small, is it really useful?" She squatted aside curiously, looking at the small tree. The black substance on the ground below did not change at all.
"Oh, yes, the purification time is one day, so it won't be effective so quickly." After reading the introduction of the purification tree, she remembered that there is a time limit.
"I haven't even looked at today's featured items yet!" She saw the Purification Tree among the featured items yesterday, but she had a bad feeling about it.
After opening the interface, the screen was immediately flooded with green.
Sure enough, the system usually pushes what she needs most at the moment, which is of course the purification tree, otherwise her farmland will be of no use.
Shi Jiu immediately picked up the six cute mini purifying trees and planted them nearby. Tomorrow, 35 square meters of farmland will be available for use. Adding the 5 square meters that can be planted, the total is 40 square meters.
Shi Jiu clapped her hands and stood up. After thinking carefully and making sure that she had not missed anything, she returned to the hotel with peace of mind.
On the other side, the four people who set out for the Longhua base to poach people met Gao Ziang and Meng Xingxiu, who were fighting zombies, on the way. As guests who checked into the hotel on the same day, they had become familiar with each other over the past two days. When they heard about their plan, they were also very interested in joining. It happened that they had earned enough crystal cores today, so they went to bring some guests back and apply for membership cards.
So the six of them went straight to the base together. They even took a shortcut on the way. However, it was also quite dangerous. There were many zombies around, and Sun Hao would definitely not take that route. In order to save time, they could only take a gamble.
Fortunately, they were very lucky along the way and there were no zombies. They soon arrived near the Longhua base.
They first hid in a corner outside, looking at the people coming and going at the entrance of the base, feeling troubled.
Gao Ziang and Meng Xingxiu were not originally from this base, so they would not have had any concerns even if they did not cover their faces. However, if the other four also covered their faces when they went in, it would not have been so easy.
If they cover their faces, what if the gatekeeper wants to check if they were bitten by zombies and are deliberately concealing it in order to enter the base and drag others to be buried with them? They will not be able to pass the test at the door. If they don't cover their faces, people who are familiar with them will recognize them at a glance. Once they report it, Sun Qiang and his son who are still in the base will definitely not let them go.
"Come on! Get out of the way! The leader is returning to the base!" Just as they hesitated, a noise came from a distance.
"Oh my god! Why did this bastard come back so soon? He won't find us." When Li Xia heard the shouting, he immediately pulled the cloth over his face, fearing that he would be recognized by the group of people at the door.
"Be quiet, we're in a corner, it's not that easy to be discovered." Jiang Xiao patted him.
Sun Hao and his group appeared in front of them in the distance, and were getting closer and closer. However, to their surprise, the leader was actually the team leader. Behind him was another person being carried by two people. He looked seriously injured and could not walk.
"Hey, could that guy being carried be Sun Hao?" Zhao Jin took a closer look and it was indeed him, his face covered in blood, and it looked like he was dead or alive.
A group of people walked over in a mighty manner, and the one who followed behind was Wei Qu. He was staring at the front with an indifferent expression, but suddenly, a sound in the corner attracted him, and he shifted his attention from Sun Hao to the side.
Huh? This isn't...
He quietly left the main group and turned to walk towards the corner. The closer he got, the more obvious he became.
"Damn! What's with this guy's eyes? He got discovered even though he's like this!" Li Xia really wished that time could go back and slap himself twice to stop him from talking. He was such a bad-mouthed person.
"Get ready. If you can't win and are discovered, run away!" Chen Hua sighed helplessly. If he shouted now, they would really have no hope of getting in.
The six people were nervous and held their weapons tighter and tighter. Wei Qu also walked nearby, but he did not walk straight over. Instead, he stopped about two meters away.
The author has something to say:
Go! The college entrance exam should be over today, right? (Polices vary from place to place, so I don’t know the specifics.)
