Chapter 335 Simple Renovation
After all, after Area A was built, in order to gather all the food that could be gathered, it has never been fully occupied. It is empty anyway, so it is worthwhile to exchange it for a prop.
It’s not that they know there are vacant rooms but don’t give them to other people, but the higher-ups have their own considerations.
They now have no hope that the natural disaster can pass. They have been sending out food continuously during this period and they don't know how many warehouses have been emptied.
Although various measures have been taken to increase grain and vegetable production as much as possible, the results are always unsatisfactory.
The sudden rainstorm and tsunami flooded countless fertilizer plants and chemical additive factories.
After that, it was impossible to increase the amount of pesticides or production.
How can they not be anxious when there are so many people waiting for them to feed them?
It would be better to set up a high-end area, let capable people live there, charge high rent, and then use this rent to subsidize civilians.
Although the living standards of civilians will decline in this way, there will undoubtedly be more people who will survive.
After all, the living area is just a little smaller. You won’t die if you can’t stretch your legs when you sleep, but you will really die if you don’t eat or drink water for a week.
Ji He was curious, "How much does it cost to buy a house?"
"40,000 kilograms of grain."
Ji He: “…”
Even she would want to say, you are so brave to ask for it.
The staff who were waiting with bated breath nearby didn't breathe a sigh of relief until Ji He nodded, and their anxious hearts finally settled down.
The whole person was very enthusiastic. "Then I'll take you to choose a house? And by the way, I'll turn on the water and electricity for you..."
Ji He nodded, said goodbye to the enthusiastic Li Quan, and followed the staff to a very crowded office.
The staff turned on the computer, turned the screen around, and pointed to Ji He, "These houses are all 98 square meters, with private bathrooms..."
Ji He finally chose a top-floor apartment in the center of Area A, close to the commercial street.
This is the most expensive house in Area A except for the villa area.
And there’s no need to worry about people walking back and forth in front of her house on the top floor.
The staff kept praising her for her good taste.
Ji He also took a look at the map of the entire base, which was the simplest planning map.
It looks like a ring inside a ring.
The middle one is the smallest and has the greatest protection. Conversely, the closer to the outer circle, the larger the area and the more people it can accommodate.
I heard it's still expanding.
After she chose the house, the staff gave her the keys and transferred the right to use the house for the next year to her name.
"Can I help you turn on the water and electricity?"
Ji He nodded, and the staff member did some operations for a while, and finally nodded with a smile, "I have deposited 100 points into your water and electricity accounts. You still have 6 points in your name. Remember to recharge your account in time, otherwise the water and electricity will be cut off."
Ji He: ...
The staff didn’t think Ji He was poor at all, they just felt that the boss was indeed different from them.
Such a powerful boss doesn’t have many points on his card.
As expected, big guys are all very low-key.
This girl is not much older than her child. Now she can rent such a nice house and has so many credit points in her name. Their monthly rent is not enough to pay for the water and electricity bills.
Life is so mixed.
After politely watching Ji He leave the door of the housing rental center, she turned around quickly and ran towards Li Quan.
Her little green vegetable, here she comes...
Ji He walked and thought about how to earn some credit points.
She had spent all the points she had accumulated by catching bugs and living a hard life for a year today.
She went straight to Area A, and this time when she was stopped at the door, she took out her ID.
"Beep, residents of Area A are allowed in."
…
Area A is indeed very different from the outside. The ground is very flat and even the street lights are much brighter than outside.
Although the surrounding houses are denser than before the disaster, they are much better than the BCD areas. Moreover, the tallest building is only more than 10 floors, which is considered short compared to those outside that are often more than 30 floors.
Pedestrians on the street are dressed much better than people outside, and many of them are wearing raincoats and rain boots.
There were a few old ladies carrying bags and digging wild vegetables everywhere, which looked somewhat similar to the outside world.
Ji He quickly found the house she rented, and there was a commercial street at the foot of the house.
After a quick look, she turned and went upstairs.
There are 19 floors and no elevator, so you have to climb up by yourself.
Fortunately, she is in good physical condition now, and with the help of Pralan, she doesn't feel tired or hot even after climbing to the 19th floor.
When going upstairs, he met a neighbor, an aunt who looked to be in her 50s. She was dressed in ordinary clothes with two patches on her clothes. The two sides greeted each other, and Ji He said nothing and continued to walk upstairs.
There are two households on each floor of this building, and the household opposite the 19th floor is also vacant and not rented out.
Taking out the key, Ji He opened the door and entered.
The house looks quite large. Opposite the front door is a living room. Inside are two bedrooms, a bathroom and a kitchen next to it.
It was just a bare house. There was nothing in the room except an outlet, not even a faucet or a toilet.
Standing in the empty room, Ji He was silent.
She seriously doubted that the base didn't want to give any socket.
It seems that unless you want to use the public toilet outside, you have to build a toilet.
It seems that if you want to live comfortably in this house, you need to tidy up a bit.
But that's all tomorrow's matter.
Ji He took out a broom and a rag, cleaned up the place briefly, and put the bed and the dining table back in place.
I’m thinking about decorating the house tomorrow, let’s eat first.
The environment was too humid, Ji He felt sticky all over and wanted to eat something spicy.
Take out a serving of helmet duck and winter bamboo shoot soup, spicy singing chicken, cold kelp shreds and a bowl of white rice.
It must be said that the kelp shreds she mixes always have a fishy smell.
But why are the kelp shreds made by the chef not fishy at all?
…
In the next few days, Ji He would leave the base once a day and come back more than three hours later.
The purpose is very simple, which is to prevent someone from coming to her house in the future and being curious about where her decoration materials came from.
With the entry and exit records at the city gate, plus the visible space button, it wouldn't arouse too much suspicion.
There is a dock around the base that allows access to the sea, as well as a piece of land.
The scope of activities is still very wide.
She also found an opportunity to sell some of the dirty metals she had hoarded and exchanged them for 300 points.
After being busy for a while, Ji He finally tidied up the room.
Two stronger security doors were installed, the bathroom was tiled, and a toilet, faucet and shower were installed.
The bedroom where she lived was also covered with wallpaper and flooring, and then the big bed where she slept, the dining table and stools were moved out and the job was done.
The other rooms, including the living room and another bedroom, all had cement floors and were not cleaned at all.
During these days, Ji He was decorating the house while thinking about the purpose of the house.
