Chapter 45
Yun Ni sat on the sofa on the right for five minutes before he heard the sound of "dong dong dong" footsteps on the stairs behind him.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Yun Ni looked up to the right and saw a man wearing a gray T-shirt, army green trousers, and army green cloth shoes walking quickly towards him. Behind him was a woman dressed in the same way. The one walking at the back was the girl at the front desk.
"Hello, I'm Gan Derun, the base commander of Chunhui Base."
"Hello, I'm Dong Yingyao, the deputy base commander of Chunhui Base."
The two breathlessly introduced themselves, smiling and extending their hands.
Yun Ni also raised his hand and shook hands with them one by one, "Hello, I am Yun Ni."
The two base commanders' breathing gradually calmed down. They looked at the girl in front of them who was dressed very "hotly". She was young, beautiful, tall, and had a very good complexion. She didn't look like someone living in the end times at all.
Gan Derun put aside his doubts and spoke slowly, "I heard from Lu Xin that you have something we want. I wonder what Miss Yun is referring to?"
Yun Ni nodded and smiled softly, "Of course, I have everything you want. But wait a moment, I have a gift for you."
Yun Ni walked lightly towards the front desk. With a flick of his right hand, he took out a cup of pearl milk tea and handed it to the girl who had just been running up and down and was still breathing heavily. "This is for you. Thank you for running up so many flights of stairs for me."
The ice-cold, steaming milk tea stood in front of Lu Xin, and she stared at it straight in the eyes. It wasn't until the girl next to her pushed her shoulder hard that she reacted and hurriedly waved her hands and said no, "No, no, no, this is what I should do. Don't thank me! You don't have to give me such a precious thing!"
"Take it, you deserve it." Yun Ni stuffed the milk tea directly into Lu Xin's hand, then turned around and said to the two base commanders standing in front of the sofa: "Let's go, let's go upstairs and talk." After she said that, she didn't care about their expressions, she walked directly to the stairs and walked up step by step.
Gan Derun and Dong Yingyao looked at each other solemnly, then glanced at Lu Xin who was still in a daze and the cup of iced milk tea in her hand, and hurriedly turned around to catch up with Yun Ni.
"Ms. Yun, can we go to the conference room on the third floor to talk?" Gan Derun followed Yun Ni closely and made a suggestion after exchanging glances with Dong Yingyao.
"Sure." Yun Ni walked up to the third floor in one breath, a little out of breath. He stood at the stairs for two seconds before speaking, extending his right hand with the palm facing up. "Two base commanders, please go first."
Gan Derun, who had just taken a breath, tugged at Dong Yingyao's sleeve. Dong Yingyao stepped forward, stretched out her right hand, and pointed to the front right. "The meeting room is over here. Please follow me."
Yun Ni walked behind Dong Yingyao, and Gan Derun walked beside Yun Ni, neither of them speaking. The three of them maintained this delicate state until they entered the meeting room.
There were only three of them in the huge conference room. Yun Ni sat opposite the two base commanders, with a long black wooden table in the middle.
After the three of them sat face to face in silence for ten seconds, Deputy Base Commander Dong Yingyao coughed twice. "Miss Yun just said there's something we want. I wonder what it is?"
Yun Ni didn't plan to say too much. She put the wine on the chair on her left, turned her palms down, and flipped them over. Two colorful flyers appeared in her hands. She placed the flyers on the table and used her psychic ability to push the flyers in front of the two base commanders opposite.
Gan Derun and Dong Yingyao have seen many people with special abilities over the years, so these little tricks of space and spirit abilities could not shock them. However, they were very interested in why ice-cold milk tea was brought out from the Yunni space.
The two of them looked down at the colorful flyers in front of them, reached out and picked them up, looking at them carefully bit by bit.
Manor hotel, full water and electricity, supermarket, delicious food, weapons, lawns, lakes, forests...
...Is this true or false?
No, she didn't need to travel over a thousand kilometers to deceive them with this.
So, is this all true?
Gan Derun pinched a corner of the flyer with his other hand, trembling slightly. He mumbled twice before speaking, "Is everything on the flyer true? Miss Yun... is the manor hotel you opened really as described in the flyer, with everything?"
Dong Yingyao also said: "Can you sell us the supplies in the hotel?"
Yun Ni nodded with a smile on his face, "Hmm, the fact that I can come here is enough to prove that I have the ability, and the fact that you can see me sitting here also means that I am willing to sell supplies to you."
Gan Derun and Dong Yingyao both breathed a sigh of relief. The base had been getting increasingly difficult in the past two years, with resources becoming increasingly scarce, even at Base No. 1 in Kyoto. Miss Yun Ni's appearance was truly timely.
They didn't bother to ask about the price. As long as they had the supplies, everything was negotiable.
"I wonder what kind of deal we're going to make? Barter or crystal cores?"
"Gold, silver, jade, or crystal cores. Of course, crystal cores are more valuable." Yun Ni took out two points exchangers and placed them in front of the two people. Pointing at the exchangers, he said, "This is called a points exchanger. Place the item you want to exchange on the flat screen, and the corresponding points will appear on the vertical screen."
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief again. It seemed that Miss Yun was really here to make money.
Crystal cores are everywhere, but supplies are the most important.
Without saying a word, Dong Yingyao took out a first-level crystal core from her pocket and placed it on the flat screen. A prompt immediately appeared on the vertical screen that it could be exchanged for 100 points.
Gan Derun didn't bring his crystal core with him before leaving, so he had to lean over to look at Dong Yingyao's screen. Dong Yingyao took out another level one crystal core and handed it to him. He didn't refuse and immediately placed it on the exchanger in front of him. He also saw a prompt on the screen to exchange for 100 points.
They both clicked OK, then stared straight ahead with blank, shocked eyes, their mouths slightly open.
They saw their names, points, and abilities all displayed on the screen in front of them. Their expressions didn't change much, but in their hearts they were screaming wildly: What is this! What is this! The torment of the apocalypse turned into a technological future? Why didn't they take them with them?
"Two?"
"Ah? Ah!"
Yun Ni looked at their shocked expressions that confused their speech and couldn't help but find it a little funny, but due to social etiquette, she decided not to laugh out loud and continued to smile.
She then pulled out two newly printed price lists for hotel supplies and handed them over. "Everything in my hotel can only be purchased with points. Here's the price list. You can discuss how much supplies you want. As long as you have the money, or points, ready, we'll be able to do it."
"Miss Yun means that you... have enough supplies? We have as many as we want." Dong Yingyao asked tentatively and received a positive answer.
"Of course, as much as you want, as long as you have the money." Yun Ni leaned forward slightly, his smile gone, his face expressionless, and a hint of coldness in his eyes. "I don't cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of it. I just hope that we can live in peace and do business in a friendly manner."
The two were startled and quickly said, "Of course!"
Miss Yun has so many high-tech gadgets: laser cannons, laser swords, constant-temperature suits, aircraft, and base shields—all technologies only found in the interstellar future worlds of old movies! How dare they start a fight with her?
Of course it’s a friendly business deal, developing together, ending the apocalypse together, and becoming the future of the stars together!
Oh right! I wonder if I can tell other bases about the hotel supplies...
Gan Derun lowered his head and coughed lightly again. After clearing his throat, he spoke, "To be honest, Miss Yun, in the past six years since the apocalypse, the resources around the various bases have been depleted greatly. Now everyone is struggling to survive. I wonder if Miss Yun would mind..."
"I don't mind." Yun Ni didn't even raise his head, and kept stroking the hair on Xiaojiu's back with his hands.
She wants you to report it, to know the hotel exists. Otherwise, why would she come all the way to Chunhui Base? Isn't it because she's attracted by their ability to contact bases in other countries?
After a second of contemplation, Yun Ni casually announced, "I will open a hotel branch in the middle of each province, with the same specifications as the headquarters hotel. Also, the distance between each base and the hotel is not a concern for me."
The two nodded in agreement, but still asked her which province she would open a branch next.
Yun Ni asked Xiao Jiu in his consciousness before answering, "First, go to Base 8, then continue west. I'll visit all 12 provinces, choose a central point, and then open a branch."
"Okay, Miss Yun, you can walk around the base later. We'll discuss purchasing supplies. We'll meet here again at 3 pm." Gan Derun stood up, rubbed his hands, and said embarrassedly, "Miss Yun, can you sell us some samples first? I can show them this too."
"Sure, steamed buns and water? Or a box lunch?"
Gan Derun and Dong Yingyao looked at the sales points for the steamed buns in the first row of the price list. They pressed the fonts of the two foods and looked at each other. Dong Yingyao took Gan Derun's eye contact and said with a smile, "Meat buns and mineral water, and some steamed buns too. A total of 200 points."
"Okay." Yun Ni waved his hands, and steamed buns and meat buns as big as fists appeared on the table, each one individually packed in food packaging bags, with thirty bottles of mineral water next to them.
Yun Ni turned around and went out, ready to continue walking around the base and experience the local customs and culture.
Gan Derun stood by the window and watched Yun Ni walk out of the office building before asking Dong Yingyao to call the base cadres to the meeting room.
Gan Derun walked to the conference table with joy, holding a packaged meat bun in one hand and a bottle of mineral water in the other.
The meat buns were warm and the mineral water was ice cold, everything was just right.
"Hehehe, hehehe, the base is saved, the Dragon Country is saved." Gan Derun's hands were shaking, and tears rolled down his eyes unconsciously and dripped onto his arms.
When Dong Yingyao brought everyone to the conference room, she saw Gan Derun sitting in the main seat with food and water in front of him.
They rushed over, all asking where the food came from.
Dong Yingyao stood at the outermost edge, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly: "Quiet! Sit in your original position!"
Everyone was stunned, and then they remembered why they followed the deputy base commander to the conference room, which was to discuss how to purchase supplies. They all thought the deputy base commander was joking, but they didn't expect that there were really supplies.
