Chapter 40: Upgrade Tips If only there were houses like this on the island...
"Big sister and second sister are so awesome!"
"Miaomiao, stand aside and don't come near," Bai Yu said, easily picking up another cabinet. "This thing looks big, but it's actually not heavy."
"We've gotten stronger," Bai Xi said, picking up the table with one hand. "Look, sister, before, I definitely wouldn't have been able to lift this thing, but now it's so easy."
Bai Yu looked at the table in Bai Xi's hand. She could roughly estimate its weight just by looking at it. It was not too heavy, but not too light either. If it were before, they would definitely need two people to lift it, but now Bai Xi could carry it away by himself.
"It seems so. We're getting stronger," Bai Yu said happily. "Let's move this stuff back first. After we move this one, we'll come over and upgrade the house and ask Beike to help rent it out."
"OK!"
After the two men moved the cabinets and tables back, they worked together to move two large beds, one to the house on the island and the other to the boat.
Fortunately, they are strong enough, otherwise they would not be able to move the bed on the boat.
After moving this set of furniture, the three of them returned to the high-rise building and used upgrade cards to upgrade six of the suites in the building.
After the upgrade was confirmed, a transparent panel similar to the one in the white fog plane appeared in front of them, showing nearby tenants who were interested in renting. Several people could live in one apartment, but there might also be several people willing to share an apartment, so for the first "rental", they chose six people whose display colors were gentle.
…
"Noisy, noisy, so annoying. Who is it? Are you looking for death?!"
As soon as the voice came out, the underground resettlement area suddenly became silent.
In a place that was neither too far nor too far, the mother, daughter and her two children covered each other's mouths, their eyes wide open and they dared not speak, for fear of angering the person who was speaking.
At this moment, they saw a card suddenly appear in front of them with the words "Rental Information" written on it. On the back of the card were detailed information, including the rent, the condition of the house, and most importantly, once the tenant confirmed the lease and was in the house, outsiders could not break in.
And the card that suddenly popped up at this moment was the room card.
"Mother."
The woman was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came to her senses, holding the card and carefully looking at the rent written on it. The rent for this lease was not fixed, it could be gold and silver jewelry, supplies, or other valuable things.
But the fact that this card suddenly appeared in front of them means that what was written on it is likely to be true.
As she was thinking this, she heard angry voices outside again.
The situation in the resettlement area is getting worse and worse, and everyone's temper is getting more and more impatient. If this continues, something will happen sooner or later.
Without further hesitation, she raised her hand to her lips and made a "hush" sound, then began to pack up quickly, putting all their things into their backpacks, and then she pulled the two children up.
The curtain in front of her was made of worn waterproof cloth and could only barely cover the area. She did not take it away, but instead lifted the curtain and walked out with her child and things.
People around her didn't find it strange to see her carrying things and the child. After all, there were a lot of people gathered in the resettlement area, and it might not be safe to leave the things and the child behind. It would be best if they were taken away by adults.
Therefore, while everyone was ignoring her, the woman brought her child to the building written on the card.
The fact that a building remained intact during the disaster does not mean it is safe. On the contrary, such a place is more likely to attract people to come here to hunt. However, this building looks like it was built not long before the disaster and no one has moved in yet.
"Mom, are we going to live here from now on?"
"Yeah," the woman nodded, looked at the information on the card, took her two daughters into the building, and walked up the stairwell.
Soon, they reached the floor written on the card.
There are six rooms on this floor, and there is a "No One" label on the door of each room. She took her child to a room at the edge and put the card on it.
Soon, a message popped up on the door asking for the number of residents to be filled in.
This series appeared suddenly, but the woman was particularly surprised. The more sudden something is, the more powerful the owner of the room is.
She immediately filled in "3" on it.
Then the word "No One" on the door disappeared and the door slowly opened.
"Mother?"
"Come on, let's go in." The woman immediately pulled her two daughters into the house and closed the door behind her.
When she was sure the door was closed, she looked at the environment in the house, which was exactly the same as before the disaster. Suddenly, her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
Then she hugged her two children and burst into tears.
…
"These three people are mother and daughter, so they need one room."
"They arrived quite quickly and should be living nearby, but the surroundings are all run-down and I don't know how or where they live."
"No matter where you live, you must be living poorly, otherwise you wouldn't be so emotional right now. This house originally belonged to this dimension. If you had lived well before coming here, you wouldn't be crying so sadly. It makes me want to cry with you."
"I feel a little bit too. I feel like the people in this dimension have a very hard life, even harder than us."
Bai Yu and Bai Xi talked with emotion.
Bai Miao listened for a while, then took out a stack of upgrade cards from his bag and held them in front of the two people: "Upgrade?"
"Let's see what happens with the next batch." Bai Yu held the upgrade card in Bai Miao's hand and looked at the mother, daughter and three people who were still crying and hugging each other. "But if the people in this plane are not doing well, they can indeed upgrade a few more rooms."
As she spoke, she glanced at the marked people. The mother and daughter had actually only received one room card, so it was considered one quota, and there were still five rooms available.
They waited for a while, and twelve people in total came to the remaining five rooms one after another. These people came with their families, relatives and friends.
In the picture, the mother and her two daughters who arrived first cried. When they heard the noise coming from outside, they were carefully sticking to the door to listen for any movement.
The three sisters were watching these people's situation openly on the panel.
When they first started selecting, they chose those with the mildest skin tones. Among these people who came with their families, except for two people with slightly darker skin tones, the rest had very mild skin tones.
Two of the families bumped into each other when they arrived, and they exchanged a few words at the door, confirming that they were both lucky enough to get the room cards, and they all had more or less happy expressions on their faces.
When these people entered the house, they all started crying first, then began to look around the house and tried to open the door with their bare hands without using a card.
But this is a special upgraded house. Not to mention them, even for the people at the White Mist Inn, it would be impossible for them to open the inn with their bare hands without paying.
"Miaomiao, how many cards do we have left?" Bai Yu lowered his head.
Bai Miao immediately gave the answer: "Seventy-two."
"There are still so many?" Bai Yu was surprised. "There are six rooms on each floor downstairs. If we use one upgrade card for each room, and then upgrade five floors, we will have exactly 30 rooms."
"Do the rooms on our floor need to be upgraded?" Bai Xi asked. "There are several rooms next door that haven't been upgraded yet. Anyone can enter these rooms. If they aren't upgraded, someone coming up could easily hide in our rooms, and it would be very dangerous for us to go out."
"Upgrading is fine, but we don't need so many rooms. Besides, the other rooms are all nearby. Do we have to go out and move to a different room every time?"
Bai Xi said casually: "It would be great if we could turn so many rooms into one room."
Bai Yu stared at the upgrade card: "Is it okay?"
Bai Miao also stared at the upgrade card. After a while, he grabbed a stack of upgrade cards and put them to his mouth: "I want to upgrade the rooms on one floor so that all the rooms can become one room. Is that okay?"
When he was serious, Bai Miao spoke very fluently.
A light lit up on the upgrade card, followed by a sound.
[Do you want to use 6 upgrade cards to upgrade all houses on this floor and connect all rooms?]
Bai Miao looked at Bai Yu.
Bai Yu nodded, and she nodded in reply: "Use it."
[In use]
"Is it really possible to negotiate with the Upgrade Card?" Bai Xi expressed shock. "Then, then, then... can we use the Upgrade Card to directly upgrade the room downstairs?"
"We are on the 32nd floor. The 31st floor has been fully upgraded. The next floor down is the 30th floor. Miaomiao, can I use the upgrade card to upgrade all the rooms on the 30th floor?"
"Six rooms?" Bai Miao found six upgrade cards, looked up at Bai Yu, and after she nodded, he grabbed the cards and said, "Upgrade six rooms on the 30th floor."
【Upgrading】
Bai Miao found another 6: "Upgrade six rooms on the 29th floor."
【Upgrading】
Having developed a new use for the upgrade cards, they upgraded all 30 rooms on the 26th to 30th floors without leaving their homes, and the information of these 30 rooms was also displayed on a transparent panel.
At the same time, all six rooms on their floor were connected, and from this side, they could see an extra doorway on one of the walls.
After upgrading the room, Bai Miao quickly ran towards the doorway.
Bai Yu and Bai Xi followed behind her.
Originally, the room here was not too small, and now so many rooms have been connected to form a whole, making the house space appear larger.
Even though Bai Miao's health was getting better and better, he was still a little out of breath after running a few laps back and forth.
Bai Yu and Bai Xi did not run with her, but they walked and looked around. Except for one room which looked empty because they had moved out the bed, cabinets, tables and chairs, the rest of the rooms were fully furnished.
More importantly, all the rooms in this circle are connected, and the windows let in light without any obstruction, which makes the room brighter and makes the things in the room stand out more.
Bai Xi couldn't help but sigh, "It would be great if there were houses like this on the island."
Bai Yu thought for a moment: "If we have enough materials, can we automatically incorporate those materials when upgrading the house?"
Bai Xi instantly recalled several actual situations of their upgrades.
For example, the swimming pool at the door of the house on the island, some magical plane materials used to build the dock, and some materials used to upgrade the White Mist Inn.
They didn't even know what many of the things were used for, but because the upgrade cards said they could be used, they used them, and those always made the upgraded buildings stronger or more beautiful.
"Can we go down and look for it?"
"If there are enough people in our building, can we pretend to be from this dimension too? Go down with those people to collect materials?"
“It seems… okay!”
