Rong Zhaowen swiped his card as instructed.
After receiving the successful paynt notification, Chu Jiangyang finally spoke, "Alright, your room is Building 6, Unit 1, Room 0101. Just swipe your Identity Card at the door, and you can enter."
"Okay, thank you!"
Having finally secured his own room at the Jianglin Hotel, Rong Zhaowen felt a sense of relief.
Seeing Rong Zhaowen set an example, the people behind him also understood what to do, and Chu Jiangyang gradually sped up the process.
After 34 people were issued their Identity Cards, Rong Zhaowen instructed them to gather at the Jianglin Hotel entrance at 9 AM the next day, then left the office hall with his own Identity Card.
Although the room fee wasn’t exactly cheap, the thought that they could now live in a place with water, electricity, cleanliness, and tidiness filled Rong Zhaowen with excitent.
anwhile, Chu Jiangyue parked her car in the designated spot outside her house, then got out and went inside.
Upon entering, Chu Jiangyue noticed soone in the kitchen and went in to find Granny Hua busy cooking.
Since Granny Hua needed Chu Jiangyue to open the door every ti she ca to cook, Chu Jiangyue gave her the access to the entire first floor of the house for convenience.
To her surprise, she returned ho after only a few hours to find Granny Hua already busy in the kitchen.
"Granny, what are you making? It slls so good!"
"It’s Osmanthus Cake. The osmanthus flowers from the two trees outside have blood, so I picked so to try. It seems it’s almost ready."
With an inco of 8000 copper coins each month, as long as she wasn’t extravagant, her life was secure.
So, Granny Hua spent her days experinting with different dishes and making them for Chu Jiangyue.
With Granny Hua’s recent culinary offerings, the previously svelte Chu Jiangyue had beco a bit more rounded.
Thus, it’s not that you can’t gain weight, but rather the chef’s offerings were insufficient.
"Osmanthus Cake?"
This traditional Dragon Country delicacy was sothing Chu Jiangyue never had before the apocalypse.
Who would have thought she’d get to eat it post-apocalypse?
Can you believe her post-apocalyptic living conditions are better than before?
"Right, it’s probably ready now. A bit hot—let get you a bowl."
Granny Hua skillfully took a small rice bowl and chopsticks from the cupboard, then placed a few freshly baked Osmanthus Cakes into the bowl.
"Here, be careful, it’s hot."
Chu Jiangyue took the bowl and chopsticks filled with Osmanthus Cake from Granny Hua, her eyes smiling with delight.
"These ca from the osmanthus trees outside, so you should have so too, Granny Hua."
But Granny Hua shook her head, "I used the flour and other ingredients from the kitchen."
Making Osmanthus Cake requires more than just osmanthus flowers; the other ingredients had to co from the kitchen.
Hearing this, Chu Jiangyue frowned slightly, feeling for the first ti that the rule of the kitchen supplies being exclusive to her was a bit excessive.
『Little Fox, could we change the rules so that kitchen supplies can be sold to guests? Otherwise, Granny Hua went out of her way to make the Osmanthus Cake, using flowers she picked herself, and yet can’t eat it because it used kitchen supplies? That doesn’t seem right.』
Chu Jiangyue wasn’t a saint; her belongings weren’t sothing she’d just hand out for free.
If the kitchen supplies could be sold, it could be a source of revenue for the hotel.
"The rule that only the host can eat the kitchen supplies cannot be changed."
Little Fox wasn’t swayed by Chu Jiangyue’s reasoning.
Of course, considering Chu Jiangyue’s understanding of Little Fox, it was likely because this rule was set by its developer, and Little Fox didn’t have the authority to change it.
『Alright, but don’t we have any other tasks? The task in Residential Zone B seems unlikely to be completed in the short term. If Jianglin Hotel doesn’t introduce sothing new for a long ti, guests might get bored.』
Though it was currently a sellers’ market, Chu Jiangyue wanted Jianglin Hotel’s guests to have a better experience.
Enhancing a bit of their sense of happiness would be even better.
"No."
Little Fox drooped its ears, acknowledging tasks weren’t so easy to co by. Early tasks were simple to accommodate the host being a newbie.
But now the hotel was Level 4, and the host wasn’t considered a newbie anymore, so the task difficulty naturally increased.
But Little Fox dared not tell Chu Jiangyue this, fearing that when it gained a physical form, it’d be ti for the host’s "revenge."
Even though it was just a string of data, its sensory perceptions were an exact replica, except it wouldn’t get rubbed bald, everything else was the sa.
『What use are you?!』
With no tasks from Little Fox, Chu Jiangyue had to let it go.
Holding the bowl of Osmanthus Cake Granny Hua gave her, she went into the dining area, blew on it a bit, and then tasted it.
From the first bite, Chu Jiangyue was amazed.
Who would have thought Granny Hua had such a talent for making pastries!
Indeed, cooking skills must be a talent, right?
Chu Jiangyue had the ingredients, but if she were to cook, she could only manage a bowl of noodles or a simple ho-cooked dish.
"Xiaoyue, I put the remaining Osmanthus Cake in the fridge. Just warm it up whenever you want to eat it."
After saying this, Granny Hua had already gone out.
But however tasty the Osmanthus Cake was, eating too much could be a bit drying, so Chu Jiangyue went to the kitchen to get herself a bottle of red jujube yogurt.
"Host! Host! The heroine’s team has brought back a large group of people!"
Little Fox returned at so point, jumping onto Chu Jiangyue’s dining table in a few bounds.
Chu Jiangyue raised an eyebrow upon hearing Little Fox’s words.
She had always wanted to expand Jianglin Hotel’s clientele, and finally led a group back. But who would have thought the heroine’s side also scored big, seemingly even bigger than her own harvest?
『I’ll go take a look.』
Though it was Jin Chuyu who brought them back, once they beca Jianglin Hotel guests, the performance counted towards Chu Jiangyue’s accomplishnts.
Receiving such a surprise without doing anything made Chu Jiangyue’s mood soar.
What could be better than a surprise from the heavens? Nothing!!
Chu Jiangyue left her three-story flat-roofed house and saw people queuing outside the office hall.
Was this Jin Chuyu’s team?
Chu Jiangyue walked towards the office hall, but as she approached the front, soone stopped her:
"Hey! Didn’t you see we’re all queuing? Why are you trying to cut in line?"
Chu Jiangyue halted, looking at the speaker, whose entire body and face were so dirty that it was hard to discern the original appearance.
But the courage to stand up against unfairness indicated so bravery.
The person next to him tried to pull him back but was shaken off.
"I’m the hotel owner. I’m here to assist with the Identity Card procedures and speed things up."
