Chapter 22
The things that the boss sells must be treasures!
They were so curious that they all wanted to grab Ye Qing and continue asking questions.
But the lady opposite blinked and pointed behind them: "That looks like your leader. Doesn't he need to stand guard?"
Several guards were taking advantage of the lack of people around, but when they heard that their leader was coming, they were frightened and turned around and ran to their work posts without stopping. When they arrived at the city gate post, there was no one else except Tang Chao, the man with the dead face.
Realizing that they had been cheated by Ye Qing, they were about to go back and find someone to reason with, but then they remembered that he was a big shot.
The boss cannot be offended. She was intentionally hinting that she was not concentrating on her work. If she reported it to the higher-ups one day, she would be in trouble. Therefore, she stood at her post obediently, but her eyes never left the bus.
Tang Chao saw that they hurried back after just a short while and seemed to have gained nothing. He felt it was a bit strange. This was not their style!
He looked towards the bus curiously, but because of his poor eyesight, he could only see a blurry figure. However, the figure seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
But he saw too many people every day and couldn't remember it for a while. He rubbed his eyes and continued to stand straight.
The passengers had already gotten off the bus. Ye Qing handed Zeng Yi a stack of flyers and stuffed him with a level 3 crystal core. "You and Damao, go in with everyone else. I'll wait for you outside."
Zeng Yi took it and nodded: "Well, be careful and wait for me to come back."
Although the man's face was wrapped in cloth, his high nose bridge and perfect jaw were still clearly visible. Coupled with his thin and powerful figure, he exuded a handsome masculine aura.
Ye Qing couldn't help but look at them twice more, with a smile hidden in his eyes: "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back."
Damao had been here once, and this time he took Zeng Yi into the city as a guide. The process was still as complicated as paying, stamping, and disinfection.
only……
Damao looked left and right but didn't see the staff member from last time.
"Excuse me, do you have a black-faced guard here?"
The staff member in front of him accepted a piece of mung bean cake from Damao and was in a very good mood. He answered his questions very patiently: "Oh, you mean Xiao Hei. I don't know what disease he has recently had. He has been talking nonsense for no reason. Once, he offended a passing leader and was fired."
"ah?"
Seeing Damao's curiosity, the staff kindly advised him, "Don't get involved with him. I heard that he got involved with some unclean things and that's what caused his brain problems."
Damao nodded, looking well-behaved: "I'm not going, but he was the one who received us last time so I came to say hello."
Staff: "Well, I wish you a pleasant journey. By the way, where did this mung bean cake come from? It's amazing that such a thing still exists nowadays."
"It's written on the packaging, you can take a look."
After saying that, Damao and Zeng Yi went into the shelter, leaving the staff to hold the mung bean cake in their hands and study it carefully.
Damao had a good memory and was familiar with the route after just one visit. He swiftly led Zeng Di to the third underground floor and clasped his hands together happily, "Alright, this is where our battlefield will be today!"
Zeng Di: "Well, without further ado, go find Xiao Qiangzi's father first. Remember the bus leaves at 5 o'clock. To avoid any accidents, we must meet up early at 4 o'clock!"
Damao was impressed by his thoughtful consideration and nodded continuously.
Then the two men separated, and Da Mao began to search street by street. Every time he arrived at a street, he would go to their office first and ask the manager for the roster. It was much more convenient to search for people through the roster than to search one by one.
Because Damao gave mung bean cakes as compensation, the management staff cooperated smoothly.
The office manager was literate. He stared at the large characters on the mung bean cake and suddenly shouted, "Taoyuan Refuge?"
Damao was checking each name one by one, and was startled by his sudden shock. He looked up and responded in confusion: "Huh?"
The manager was a man about 35 years old. Perhaps he was reluctant to spend 5 crystal cores to go to the barber shop to tidy up his appearance, so although he was not old, the beard on his chin was very long.
His goatee trembled like a dice with excitement. "I've heard of this shelter before. It's incredibly famous on our street! Unfortunately, I missed it because I was on duty that day. I rushed over and it was sold out. My neighbor bought the pig-killing powder they were selling and showed it off to me."
He had certainly never seen it before, but he was savoring it with his head held high. Then, he suddenly came to his senses and grabbed Damao's hands: "Now that I think about it, you look very familiar to me. Aren't you the boy standing next to the young boss?"
Damao pulled his hand away, but couldn't pull it out for a moment: "Yes, it was us three brothers and sisters who came with the boss."
The manager looked Damao up and down with confusion, and even pinched the flesh on his cheeks with his hands, as if he couldn't believe it: "It's really you!"
"You've changed so much. I remember you back then very clearly. You were haggard, pale, and with not a pound of flesh on your body. Look at you now, you're completely different, aren't you?"
Although the management exaggerated, Damao's changes are indeed very obvious, and his complexion now is completely different from before.
Da Mao laughed awkwardly, "Hahaha". Although his words were quite mean, he was praising his boss, and praising his boss really made him happier than praising himself.
"So, you work in Taoyuan now?"
Damao nodded: "Yes, that place is great. I came here today just to miss my old friend and to take him to the Taoyuan Refuge together."
The manager was deeply moved and stopped Damao from looking for help. He pulled him aside and asked him carefully, "I want to go too. How did you get here? Is it dangerous? Is there any way you can recommend? I heard that we have to go through a dangerous forest with strange beasts everywhere. I've never left Shanhai City before, and I'm afraid if I go out carelessly, I'll get hurt..."
The manager was talking fast and furious, and Damao, desperate to find someone, had to interrupt him. "There's a pink bus right at the city gate that goes to Taoyuan Shelter. It leaves before 5 p.m., and seats are limited, so it's on a first-come, first-served basis."
"the bus?"
The manager's rough voice suddenly became sharp, and then Muran turned around.
"First come, first served. I have to pack up quickly then."
He hurried a few steps away and then returned. "After hearing your description of that old friend, I suggest you go to District 13. It's pretty much the same type of people who live there."
This time, he really ran off, leaving Damao muttering, "Area 13?"
Zeng Ya and Damao split up into two groups. Damao went to find Xiao Qiangzi's father Liu Gang, while Zeng Ya went to the circular square in the central area to distribute flyers.
Ye Qing said that you have to be diligent when distributing flyers. You should go up to everyone you meet and advertise loudly while distributing them. Only then will it be effective. Otherwise, people will just throw them into the trash without even looking at them.
Zeng Yai imagined a seven-foot-tall man hustling to attract customers, and goose bumps spread across his body. He didn't seem to be able to do such a thing, so it seemed he couldn't agree too readily.
He found a billboard and slowly posted a whole row of advertisements on it. He hesitated and couldn't open his mouth.
Thinking of Ye Qing's expectant eyes, he finally gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and roared loudly, mechanically practicing the advertising slogan that Ye Qing taught him.
"Walk around, take a look, take a look. Don't miss it if you pass by. Taoyuan Shelter welcomes residents and tourists, and also provides round-trip bus service..."
Before an advertisement was finished, people gathered from all directions.
"Brother? What did you just say? Taoyuan Sanctuary?"
"Is it the Utopia Shelter with a female boss and four ugly kids?"
"Is the boss here again? Where is she? Did she bring beef noodles this time? I miss that so much!"
"What do you mean by round-trip bus service?"
"Yes, little brother, explain it again."
They kept chattering, making Zeng Yi feel out of control and as if there were a hundred bees buzzing around his ears. But because they had no bad intentions and were the customers Ye Qing was looking forward to, his smile froze and he tried to hold back his expression from turning cold.
He calmed down and reassured everyone: "Everyone take your time and ask one by one."
5 minutes later.
Zeng Yi finally finished explaining: "That's what happened."
As soon as the words fell, everyone scattered quickly like birds and beasts.
Zeng Yi looked at the large stack of flyers in his hand, his heart suddenly sinking. He didn't care about the style and shouted loudly: "Wait a minute! Take a flyer!"
His task today is to distribute all these flyers!
Yet, no one stopped to listen to him.
"Why are you still holding onto flyers? Just go home and pack your things!"
"Yes, if I can catch the bus, it's fine. If I can't, I have to go to the boss to buy some things. I didn't get to eat beef noodles last time, so I have to get in line this time."
…
Zeng Ya was speechless for a moment. After posting a row of advertisements in several different blocks, he thought about posting more on the second floor underground.
The second underground floor is occupied by mid-level and high-level psychics and their families. Logically speaking, he is not a resident of Shanhai City, and there is no one to receive him there, so his one-day access is limited to the third underground floor.
However, because the staff member of the Recruitment and Transfer Office accepted the tip from Green Bean Soup and specially set himself as the receptionist, Zeng Di had the opportunity to enter the second underground floor.
Compared with the third underground floor, the buildings on the second floor are much neater and more spacious. In addition, the hunting team had just returned from hunting in the dangerous forest during the day, and most of them were resting. At this time, there were not many people in the central square on the second floor except for some family members who stayed behind.
Perhaps life in the dark underground was too boring, so the people on the second floor were quite good at entertaining themselves. They spontaneously organized a senior cultural troupe, recruited some talented people, and were now performing a play on a small stage.
Seeing that the opera had just begun, Zeng Yi, as usual, posted small advertisements on bulletin boards, nearby building walls, and street lamp poles. When he returned to the stage, the opera was nearing its end and the audience was about to disperse.
Zeng Yi immediately rushed over, leaped onto the platform half a meter high with a single step, and called out to everyone who was about to stand up: "Everyone wait a moment!"
Several veteran actors who were about to retreat behind the scenes looked at each other after hearing this, and after seeing each other shaking their heads, they all looked at the strange young man.
Zeng Yi persuaded the audience to sit down, then imitated Ye Qing's usual mysterious demeanor and said, "Don't leave just yet, everyone. I'm going to put on a show for everyone. I guarantee it'll be an eye-opener!"
