Chapter 41
It's a new day, and the shelter employees are doing their jobs.
Deng Hailong headed to Shanhai City with a truck full of supplies. Since starting this job, he not only has no worries about food and clothing, but has also gained more respect. Every time he has a meal together, his teammates would sigh with him about their wise move.
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, he whistled and looked extremely relaxed. Before he even reached Shanhai City, he saw a group of people waiting at the gate. One of them even held up a banner with a few bold words written on it: "Welcome to Taoyuan Sanctuary!"
This was an unprecedented treatment. Before, under pressure from Sun Dazhuang, everyone had to suppress their cheers silently. They had never been so blatant before.
Considering that the boss was not present on the day of the beast tide, Deng Hailong guessed that Sun Dazhuang had been dealt with.
From now on, this place will belong to the Utopia Shelter. They can come in whenever they want, and the people inside can leave whenever they want.
Leading the group was a slender lady and a young guard. Their faces were covered with scarves to protect them from radiation, but the lady's beauty was still evident.
The guard standing beside her looked familiar, and Deng Hailong took a few more glances before recognizing that this was the young guard who had passed the note. As for the lady, she was probably the Miss Lin who was in charge that the boss mentioned.
Linzhi had been living in the City Lord's Mansion before and had never seen this pink bus. When Xiaojiu mentioned it, he only knew a general idea about it. Now that he has seen it with his own eyes, the feeling is indescribable.
I have always known that pink is beautiful, but this is the first time I have seen such a dazzling pink. Almost no woman can resist the temptation of pink, and Linzhi is no exception.
As soon as the bus stopped, she couldn't wait to go forward and touch it. The skin was smooth and delicate, and the lines were flowing and beautiful. It was hard to imagine how it could travel across the dangerous ground to here and still remain so clean.
Not only her, but several other refuge messengers who came to learn from the experience were also shocked. If it weren't for their status and the need to be tactful when going out, they would have also climbed up to take a look like Linzhi.
Seeing that the contact person was too engrossed, Deng Hailong had to step forward and remind her: "Ms. Lin, Miss Lin?"
Lin Zhi uttered an "Ah!", realizing her negligence, and immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, just now..."
This was the first time she was so obsessed with it. It seemed that the things in the Utopia Shelter were truly magical.
Deng Hailong was not surprised at all and said considerately: "Oh, this is normal. I was even more exaggerated than you at that time!"
Deng Hailong's partner also talked about his embarrassing story: "Yeah, you don't know what the captain said at that time..."
The two of them have generous personalities and the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious.
"By the way, the boss said that Miss Lin has been working hard here, so he asked me to bring some special products from the shelter. Please see if there is anything you are missing. I will come here several times a day and bring them back when the time comes."
When they heard about the specialties, the group of people behind him suddenly opened their eyes wide: "Wow, so many, the benefits are great."
"Yeah, I heard there are so many rare treasures over there, I'm so envious~"
I have to say that Lin Zhi is quite good at dealing with people. Seeing that everyone liked it, he contributed without hesitation: "Everyone has worked hard recently. Let's share these supplies that the boss brought."
This batch of supplies was specifically sent to Linzhi, and everyone knew how precious it was, but she was so generous to share it.
Some people refused awkwardly: "This... this isn't good. Boss Ye gave it to you. If you share it with us, won't you have a lot less?"
The others followed suit, but their eyes were occasionally drawn to the supplies in the car.
Lin Zhi smiled and said, "Although it was given to me, it is everyone's contribution. You have put in the work and you deserve to be rewarded. If I keep it all to myself, I will be punished by God."
After a wave of explanation, everyone felt relieved.
"Okay, then we won't be polite!"
"Miss Lin, if you have any problems in the future, please come to me, Old Zhao."
"I didn't expect Miss Lin to be so resourceful and resourceful, and also have such great character. I, Li, really admire her!"
"I was blinded by the message before. I, Old Wang, would like to apologize to Miss Lin. From now on, as long as you give me an order, I will fight to the death."
Linzhi was calm and composed, eloquent, and quickly became friends with everyone, like an excellent diplomat.
Deng Hailong stood outside and watched with respect. When he came, the boss said that it was difficult for Linzhi to be alone here, and asked him to provide help to the best of his ability.
Now it seems that she can handle it all by herself.
When the bus was about to depart, a team of guards led a group of people to line up. Lin Zhi stood by and watched, and occasionally chatted with his colleague Deng Hailong.
"Among today's group, I plan to let seriously ill families and diplomatic representatives go first, and then the others will be lined up according to their applications. However, there are also some people who can't wait and will go on their own. The shelter will just be ready to receive them when they arrive."
Deng Hailong stood aside with a lollipop in his mouth, watching the passengers get on the bus one by one. When he saw her talking about her plan, he couldn't help but glance at her again: "Okay, I'll report it to the boss."
Lin Zhi nodded seriously, then casually asked, "What are the boss's general requirements for people, such as rank, ability, personality, and accomplishment?"
Deng Hailong glanced at her, a little confused as to why she suddenly brought this up. He simply told her honestly, "The boss doesn't care whether you have special abilities or whether you're an official. As long as you have the ability and can get things done, you'll be valued."
Lin Zhi looked Deng Hailong up and down, and suddenly the corners of her mouth cracked, her expression relaxed: "That's good."
For some reason, Deng Hailong read the confidence in her eyes that said, "If you can be valued, I am so awesome that I will definitely be appreciated by the boss."
He took out the lollipop and said with a strong condemnation: "No way, you rolled me."
Lin Zhi put his hands behind his back and looked around. A faint voice came: "It's not a roll, it's just that he was born this good."
Deng Hailong angrily stuffed the lollipop back into his mouth and grabbed the guard who was about to leave with him: "Xiao Jiuer, has she always been like this?"
"No, Miss has always had her own ideals and ambitions. I guess this is the sequelae of being trapped in the City Lord's Mansion for too long."
Xiaojiu looked at Linzhi's back with a look of heartache in his eyes.
"But you don't need to feel too stressed. She's always been like this. She's very competitive and wants to do everything better than others. It's also her nature to be conscientious and responsible at work."
Deng Hailong seemed to be choked, his voice changed: "Why would I feel pressured? I'm the one in charge of the bus routes, no one can compete with me!"
No matter how the two competed with each other, after the acquisition of Shanhai City, the first batch of official residents were sent to Taoyuan Shelter.
Like all visitors, the shelter's imposing 28-story building was a first-hand shock. As soon as the bus stabilized, a staff member came up to greet us warmly.
The envoys were completely confused throughout the whole process and followed everyone in in a daze. Not to mention the towering building that was rare in the world, even the service attitude was rare in a century.
In the spacious and bright hall, someone offered them clean, pollution-free hot water, and someone warmly introduced them to the shelter's facilities. As messengers, they also enjoyed a free lunch.
"Our boss said that anyone coming from afar is a guest. This is our restaurant's VIP coupon. With this, you can eat and drink for free in the restaurant. I hope you can enjoy your stay in the shelter." Li Yuanyuan had received training long ago and was fully prepared to handle the situation.
The messenger took it tremblingly: "There's also a free lunch, thank...thank you!"
In the end times, the criteria for measuring the strength of a shelter are population and the number of high-level psychics, and they are the weakest group.
A weak country has no diplomacy, and the same goes for a refuge.
When they visit other institutes, they have to pay for their own food and accommodation, and they are inevitably met with contempt and disdain.
The people in the Taoyuan Shelter live in such good conditions that they should have an instinct to feel superior to others as they are used to seeing good things. However, they treat others so peacefully and have no sense of superiority at all.
The envoys were flattered to receive such a high standard of reception for the first time, and their hearts were finally at ease.
Not only is this place powerful, but the residents are also so simple and kind. It seems that I have to promote it well after I go back. There is no need to say more about mutual communication. It would be even better if I can convince the mayor of my own city to move here.
Ye Qing sat on the single sofa and cracked melon seeds. Seeing that everything was operating normally in the shelter, he turned to watch TV series.
Shanhai City has a population of over 100,000, and relying on only three bus trips a day is quite time-consuming. Under Linzhi's lobbying, Deng Hailong voluntarily increased the number of buses from three to six per day.
As the number of operating buses increased, the resident population also soared rapidly, and the experience value of the public transportation system also increased rapidly.
In just one day, public transportation will undergo a new upgrade.
It was dinner time, and Ye Qing was sitting in the hall, eating a bucket of braised beef noodles with big mouthfuls, his eyes occasionally glancing at the TV screen in front of him.
Deng Hailong and his teammates, who had just finished operating the last bus, rushed in excitedly. Without a second thought, they grabbed her and ran out, their voices filled with familiar excitement: "Boss, hurry up! It's telling me to upgrade again!"
TV dramas can certainly make people happy, but upgrading the baby you have personally raised is more important. Ye Qing immediately bit off the stretched noodles, put down the instant noodle bucket in his hand and walked out.
When she arrived at the bus, she clicked on the system bus panel, and there was indeed an upgrade option on the panel.
[Public transport level: Level 2 (upgradable).]
[Do you want to spend 5000 crystal cores to upgrade? Yes/No.]
【yes. 】
After clicking to upgrade according to the instructions, a white light enveloped the bus, as if giving it a mysterious baptism. The white light dissipated, and a brand new bus appeared before our eyes.
【Public transportation level: Level 3.】
[Carriage: 3, Color: Pink, Maximum Speed: 120 km/h, Attributes: Defense 85%, Attack 10%.]
It still has the original appearance, but the bus length has been extended again, from the original two carriages to the current three carriages, and the number of passengers has also increased accordingly. The current load capacity is 150 people.
This is a bit like the articulated bus that Ye Qing has seen. It is named because the carriages are connected by a set of relatively movable "articulated plates". At this upgrade rate, there will be more and more bus carriages, and later it will transform into light rail, subway and even high-speed rail.
However, all of this is just Ye Qing’s guess, and we will have to wait until the upgrade to know the details.
