Chapter 9



"Sorry, I said the wrong thing." Shi Jiu looked at him with a smile, "I can't call you a dog, that would be an insult to cute puppies. I can't call you naive either, that doesn't suit you. The word stupid is more suitable for you."

"Do you know..." Sun He was almost going crazy. No one had ever said this to him. His fragile self-esteem, which was usually covered by a life of luxury because he had no special abilities, had reached the critical point of breaking after what happened in the past two days.

"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Just go back to where you came from." Shi Jiu didn't want to listen to this greasy man anymore.

Open the tablet and click on the occupancy status. There is a blacklist function in the lower right corner, which can be used to blacklist guests who have checked in.

She blocked the two people decisively. The next second, they seemed to have their mouths covered, their freedom restricted, and were slowly pushed out of the door by an invisible resistance.

"People like this really affect my appetite." After Shi Jiu waited until the system pushed the two people out, he went into the warehouse to get a bowl of instant noodles and sausage and went to the room to cook breakfast.

Anyway, she will never be able to enter the hotel again after being blacklisted by the system, so she doesn’t need to be afraid. She should eat first. With the kitchen utensils, she can make something delicious. Oh, there are also tomatoes and lettuce!

After cooking an upgraded version of instant noodles with lettuce and ham in the room, Shi Jiu took his brunch to the front desk to eat, which also came with a sweet and delicious tomato.

At least ten minutes had passed, and Sun He and Zhou Yan were still at the door. After they were pushed out, the restraints disappeared. Sun He kept cursing there, as if he wanted to vent all the resentment that had accumulated in his heart for the past two days.

Zhou Yan looked at the crazy Sun He from behind, and felt extremely happy when she thought of his previous intention to abandon her.

But then he thought about the danger he was in and a conflicting mentality emerged again. Should he continue to cling to Sun He or return to the base alone?

Looking through the wooden door, Zhou Yan felt resentful when she saw Shi Jiu still eating without worries. She hated her for being ungrateful, cruel, and ruthless, not even leaving them a chance to live.

It's funny that two selfish people always think about relying on others. No matter what happens, the first thing they do is blame others, and they never think about their own problems.

If they had had a little team spirit last night, not to mention helping, at least not making things worse, why would they have caused a break with the team?

If they had not said those words to Shi Jiu in the morning and had no evil thoughts, they could still continue to live in the single room as long as they had the crystal core, and they would not have ended up like this.

Of course, this kind of person cannot explain himself clearly. He will never think that he is wrong and that others are always wrong.

Therefore, Shi Jiu, who knew this very well, didn't say any nonsense and directly blocked them and stopped receiving them. Why should he suffer for a few crystal cores, not to mention that these two people had bad intentions.

The functions produced by the system are really good. It can even block out dirty words from outside. Without any worries, eating tastes much better.

The lettuce was crisp and tender, the tomatoes were slightly sour and sweet, the ham was succulent, and even the instant noodle soup was rich and tangy. I finished a bowl of noodles in no time and burped.

After cleaning up the remaining things and returning to the front desk, Shi Jiu found that the two men had already left. They might have realized that no matter how much they scolded them, it would be useless and it was just a waste of time and energy standing at the door.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for using the blacklist for the first time and defending their rights. Now open for a long-term event: Daily Featured Products]

A message popped up on the tablet after the two people left.

"Daily featured item?"

Wow, there are rewards for blacklisting now!

"Let me see what good stuff I have first!"

Shi Jiu happily opened the tablet. The mall had opened up this section, which displayed the products that were refreshed at midnight every day. There weren't many, just six items.

"Wow, there's a TV. What else? A small fluorescent blackboard, employee summon tickets, and mall raffle tickets?"

Shi Jiu counted and found that there were three lottery tickets in the mall. It seemed that this would be the way to participate in the lottery in the future.

"Are these things really considered carefully selected?" she expressed doubts. They didn't look very high-end.

"But this employee summon ticket is quite good. Although business is not that high right now, it would be more comfortable to have an employee."

On the first day of opening the store, Shi Jiu had already begun to fantasize about the happy life of being a hands-off boss.

However, the employee summoning ticket has the highest price, worth up to 500 crystal cores. After coming to his senses, Shi Jiu faced the reality.

"This price is too high. I have to spend this warm crystal core within minutes of getting it." Making money is not easy, Shi Jiu sighed.

Turning my attention to other things, a TV is not a necessity, but the price is really good, it can be bought for only 15 crystal cores. The hall is too empty, and there is a lack of a machine near the sofa to create an atmosphere. Buy it!

The small fluorescent blackboard is even cheaper, and you can take it home for only 5 crystal cores. Shi Jiu remembered the long-term task, and he had to write it down so that people would know about this activity. Buy it!

You have to get the last raffle ticket from the mall. One ticket is worth 30 crystal cores, and there are three in total. A little bit adds up to a lot, and one lucky shot will make you a lucky guy. The renovation of this small hotel is not a dream at all, buy it!

Finally, the only thing left was the expensive employee summoning ticket. She clicked on it and hesitated for a moment. The product didn't say anything about the situation. What if the person summoned was a zombie king?

Shi Jiu decided to ask the customer service first. She began to call out in her mind, "Customer service, are you there?"

"I'm here. Does the host have any questions for me?" The voice of the intelligent customer service sounded in his mind.

"I'd like to ask about this employee summoning ticket. What does it summon?"

"The problem has been identified, please wait."

"Okay, I understand the problem. The employee summoning voucher can be used to summon employees who have signed a contract to come and work at the hotel. The specific details are decided by the hotel owner. Since the summoning voucher enjoys a discount, the after-sales service of the employees cannot be guaranteed. The main benefits are: food and accommodation provided, and personal safety is responsible. The question is answered." The intelligent customer service responded.

"Can't guarantee after-sales service? Is there something wrong here?" Shi Jiu had a bad feeling after hearing this.

"Sorry, this question is out of scope and cannot be answered." The customer service representative stopped talking after answering the question. Shi Jiu looked at the employee voucher and felt very conflicted for a moment.

Buy it. There are only a few crystal cores left. Although her job is to earn crystal cores, she forgot to ask how to provide the crystal cores to the system in order to meet the requirements. What if the standard is based on deposits?

Don't buy it. This kind of opportunity should be hard to come by. Otherwise, if she only relies on buying coupons to summon employees, she, as an employee, should not be an employee anymore. If she really becomes a boss, the system should not give her so many conveniences.

Two ideas were fighting in Shi Jiu's mind. Both sides had their reasons, which gave her a headache.

“Ah, what should I do!!!”

[Ding! 001 is online]

Suddenly, an electronic sound rang out, and the flowers on the table suddenly lit up.

【Host dear, what are you worried about?】

"001! You... aren't you in hibernation?" Shi Jiu was startled and said in surprise as he looked at the flower in front of him that was only glowing faintly.

"Yeah, but you provided me with some crystal cores these past two days. I originally thought that the energy would sustain me so I could stay powered up and come out, but I saw your problem, so I decided to come out and shine a little while I'm still a little bit cool."

"So you are just out temporarily." Shi Jiu was a little disappointed, but then he cheered up.

"What I want to ask is how I earn crystal cores for you? Is it based on your deposit?"

[No, it depends on the number of crystal cores you paid.] 001 said.

"That's fine. Now I won't save money." Shi Jiu got the reply and nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that he could attract more guests and quickly upgrade the hotel.

"What does it mean that the preferred target of the employee voucher does not include after-sales service? Is it possible that he is not a human?!" Shi Jiu's thoughts diverged.

[Host, rest assured, the employees are definitely normal humans. It's just that the employees recruited using this method are not adaptable.]

"Well... as long as it doesn't endanger personal safety, it should be fine." Although Shi Jiu was a little puzzled, as long as there was no danger, it was not a big problem.

[That's not a problem...] 001 choked. Objectively speaking, that explanation was not a problem, but...

[Okay, I don't have time to stay here anymore. Host, please work hard and earn more crystal cores so that I can get out of this little dark room. Bye.]

001 saw that there was no time left, so he said goodbye and logged off without saying anything else.

"Bye, I hope you can stay here next time we meet." Shi Jiu said goodbye to it and watched its light dim again.

"Let's go shopping." Shi Jiu planned to buy everything and install the five single rooms that were given as a gift during the upgrade.

She also bought the last item in the daily featured products. Seeing the number of crystal cores in her account drop from more than 700 to more than 100 in an instant, even though she knew that they had been given to the system, she still couldn't help but feel distressed.

Maybe this is why you feel safe when you have money in your own hands. Shi Jiu looked at the employee summoning ticket in the warehouse on the tablet and planned to use it directly. Although it was only the next day, the sooner you summoned, the sooner you could release the employee.

[The usage period has not yet expired. Please use this voucher when the hotel is upgraded to level 2.]

What? This thing actually has a shelf life, it's not something you can just buy and use immediately.

Shi Jiu poked the icon in disappointment. He had thought that he would be able to see the employee's true face today. Shi Jiu looked at the summoning ticket that could not be used temporarily and sighed, "Forget it, forget it. I'd better go see my little chicken."

I just finished watching the harvest at the farm, and haven't visited the pasture yet. I clicked in and found that the chicks have grown from their previous larval stage to mature stage, and finally to the harvest stage. This chicken has completed its mission and contributed its meat to benefit mankind.

It takes four hours from the larval stage to the growing stage, and four hours from the growing stage to the mature stage. When it reaches the mature stage, it can lay eggs, and it will lay one egg every hour, which is eight hours. That is to say, this chicken can lay eight eggs in its lifetime. Finally, after another eight hours, it enters the harvesting period. It will no longer eat feed and will just stay in the chicken coop waiting to be harvested.

"Wow, it only takes 24 hours to harvest a fat and strong hen!" She didn't expect that it would be faster than the three days she had imagined to eat meat. It didn't take three days at all, now she only had to wait 24 hours!

After learning about the life of the chicks, Shi Jiu saw that the chicken coop indicated that it was time to harvest the eggs. "If I had known, I would have gone to the ranch before eating. Adding an egg to instant noodles would have been very delicious."

I bought 30 portions of feed last night. If two chicks consume two portions in two hours, it will last more than a day, so there is no rush.

Shi Jiu was thinking about it while trying to order the egg. It was so strange, why didn’t this production robot accept it?

[One of the production robots has already lost more than half of its durability. Should we upgrade the farm and pasture and move it to the real world for production?]

“???”
