Fang Xin thought that she would go out and look for a good Feng Shui location when she had time. She didn't want to stay in the base all day.
This is just a place for her to stay. She has a place to live in the base and can enter the base legitimately.
You can live here if you want to, and you can also live somewhere else if you don’t want to.
At this time, the mission hall was crowded with people, all wanting to earn some points to support their families.
Grandpa Li looked at the tasks on the mission hall for a few more times, and he was eager to make a move, but he had no capable partner to cooperate with him, and he was the only veteran.
Xiao Kai didn't know when he would be able to come back, and no one knew where Yu Keke and her team members were.
He was worried about working with people he didn't know, as there was a possibility that he would be harmed or plotted against, which was not suitable at all. Besides, no one would be willing to do a mission with an old man.
He could only suppress his thoughts, take his time, and not rush.
Fang Xin and his companions walked towards the redemption hall on the left.
"This is the redemption hall. You can use food to redeem points, or you can use materials or other things."
The thin and dark man introduced patiently.
The price of each redemption is different.
For example, 1 kilogram of ordinary grain is worth 1 point, and 1 kilogram of ordinary meat is also worth 1 point.
If the grain and meat are of better quality and not moldy or infested with insects, you can exchange them for 1.5 points.
Even though it’s only 0.5 more, it’s still a lot. If it’s fresh meat, you can get 2 points. The redemption ratio is quite reasonable.
Grandpa Li decided to exchange some meat for some points.
Their meat has been stored for too long.
They exchanged some for meat and others for grain.
The meat and grains of the two elders can be exchanged for 1.5 points per pound. Although they have been stored for a long time, their things are well preserved and there are no signs of spoilage or insects. The meat is all vacuum-packed, so the price is a little higher.
The two elders were very happy to see that the points were 1.5 per pound, because they still had a lot, so they didn't have to worry about points.
The two elders calculated in their minds that they would have to spend 100 kilograms of food and accommodation per month, and they couldn't help feeling a little distressed.
But high-end residential areas are definitely more expensive.
I gritted my teeth and paid the rent.
Fang Xin replaced them with some ready-to-eat foods, which had a lot of preservatives. She didn't usually eat them, so she didn't feel bad about replacing them.
After they finally paid the rent, they were all smiles on their faces and felt relieved, as this meant that they finally had a stable residence in City A.
Living in the powerful A City base, your life safety can also be guaranteed to a certain extent.
After getting the keys, they all went to their respective residences.
Fang Xin helped the two elders move all their things upstairs.
I helped them clean the house before I left.
The two elders originally wanted to follow Fang Xin and help clean up her house or do some work, but Fang Xin refused.
Because she can use space to help.
Fang Xin took the dog back to the house he rented.
Fang Xin carried the dog on his back all the way to avoid being seen and drooling by others.
The room has simple furniture.
Both bedrooms have a simple wooden bed.
There is also a small table, that's all.
If you want to use household appliances, you have to buy them yourself.
These simple pieces of furniture would definitely not be used, so they were all moved to the second bedroom using the space, and a luxurious big bed was taken out again.
The floor was made of cement, with no flooring or tiles. Fang Xin even doubted whether the house she rented was high-end housing.
We can see what low- and medium-sized housing should look like.
Fang Xin took out a vacuum cleaner from the living room and sucked out the dust in the room.
Lay a layer of simple flooring on the cement floor, which will be easier to maintain and look better.
I was worried, so I disinfected it again and took out the formaldehyde machine and put it in the bedroom.
After all, the furniture is new, so formaldehyde removal is still necessary. She doesn't want to get leukemia or something.
Then he took out a luxurious large wardrobe, a bedside table to match the bed, a desk, and laid a high-end cashmere carpet on the floor.
After decorating the master bedroom, there is no need to decorate the living room yet. You can add to it slowly later because the two elders will come over sometimes.
But the hygiene still needs to be cleaned.
Finally, all the work was done.
Fang Xin was also tired.
After a whole day of hard work, how could I not be tired? So I slipped into the space to take a hot bath, and my body finally relaxed a little.
There was electricity and running water in the house, but there was no water heater in the bathroom, which needed to be installed, but she thought it was troublesome so she didn't do it.
Just take a shower with hot water or something and enter the space.
The man and the dog wolfed down their dinner and went to bed early.
Finally, I don’t have to run around anymore, and I don’t have to fight anymore.
You can take a good rest.
My body and mind immediately relaxed and I soon fell asleep.
The next day, Fang Xin was awakened by Master Li knocking on the door.
This little old man has so much energy that he doesn't even need to sleep in in the morning.
Fang Xin opened the door for the old man in his pajamas, yawning.
"Little old man, why are you up so early? Why don't you take a good rest?"
“I’m not tired.”
Well, this old man's physical condition is really bad.
"Let's go buy a watch."
Fang Xin was a little confused, "I have a watch."
"It's not an ordinary watch. It's a base contact. It can make phone calls, send voice messages, etc."
Fang Xin realized that it was inevitable for the base to restore its network, and with the gathering of talents from all walks of life, restoring the network was inevitable.
"OK."
She and Grandma Li followed behind Grandpa Li. Both of them were carrying large bags filled with supplies.
If the points on the card are not enough, you can redeem them directly without having to make another trip.
The mission hall and various shops are located on the inner perimeter of the base, next to the mid-range housing.
This way all residents of the base can come here.
The three men walked into the store and went straight to the counter.
"We want to buy a connector."
The salesperson smiled and said, "The regular watch is 166 points per piece, and the other one is 566 per piece. There are two types in total. Which one do you want?"
Grandpa Li took a deep breath, it was so expensive, "What's the difference?"
"The regular watch can only be used within the base. There will be no signal outside the base. The other watch can be used anywhere regardless of location or distance."
Fang Xin seemed to understand that this was because the previous network had not been restored. After all, it had not been maintained for a long time. So he abandoned the old program and developed a new program to use.
The other watch may use a satellite system with a wide signal range, but it can only make and receive calls and does not have many functions. However, it is good to be able to contact other people in the end times.
Fang Xin had bought several satellite phones before, but he never used them because he didn't figure out how to pay for them.
