"As long as they aren’t here to cause trouble, let them handle the Identity Card as they please."
Chu Jiangyue wasn’t the type to back down easily. If the people from the base didn’t have a good rapport with her, she wouldn’t be friendly towards them.
"Don’t worry, Boss Chu. We’ll definitely inform the leaders to send soone easy to negotiate with."
"Let be blunt. If they upset , the hotel has the right to put them on a blacklist.
Anyone on the blacklist will be banned for life from setting foot in Jianglin Hotel."
Since they were from B City Safety Base, Chu Jiangyue made sure to explain the blacklist to them in advance.
Otherwise, it would be laughable if soone ended up on the blacklist and couldn’t enter the hotel, and then ca to demand an explanation from her.
"Rest assured, Boss Chu, we’ll make sure to explain this clearly to our leaders."
Ling Feng’s expression beca even more serious when he thought of the blacklist that Chu Jiangyue ntioned.
"Boss Chu, I heard you ntion there’s food for sale here. What kind of food is it and how is it sold?"
He Yan, next to Ling Feng, had been keeping it in mind ever since hearing Chu Jiangyue ntion they could buy food here.
Now that it was confird the friend list could indeed be used for communication, he brought it up.
"Stead buns and at buns, and there’s bok choy, fresh bok choy.
Also braised pork, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and so forth. You can view them on that side of the display cabinet. If you want to buy, just order from the screen and swipe your card."
Chu Jiangyue offhandedly replied.
Due to the hotel’s guest rooms never being fully occupied, the food hadn’t been unlocked further, leaving only these items available for the past couple days.
However, because supplies were unlimited, the hotel’s guests hadn’t shown any discontent.
You have to know, now that everything outside has mostly rotted beyond consumption, the only food left is sealed.
After this period of searching, food is becoming increasingly scarce outdoors.
Although Jianglin Hotel offers only a few food items, they are definitely fresh, with plenty of staple foods to fill one’s stomach.
In an apocalypse, filling your stomach is what’s most important.
"Stead buns!"
"Fresh bok choy!"
"at buns!"
"Boss Chu, are you sure you’re not joking?"
These foods are extrely rare even at the base.
"I wouldn’t lie to you for gold coins."
Chu Jiangyue raised her hand, tapping the food category on the virtual screen above the counter, selecting main courses and vegetables for him to see for himself.
"Tap here to enter the quantity you want, then swipe your Identity Card here to pay, and the items will appear in front of you."
Ling Feng imdiately followed Chu Jiangyue’s instructions and bought a stead bun.
As soon as he swiped the card, a stead bun appeared out of thin air on the counter.
His Identity Card balance was deducted by 20 copper coins.
No one doubted Chu Jiangyue’s words any longer.
This was yet another pleasant surprise.
Ling Feng even felt that Jianglin Hotel was like their beacon in the apocalypse; seeing it ant seeing hope.
Chu Jiangyue didn’t care what they thought. As long as they could generate revenue for her, they were good people.
Ling Feng and his companions rushed back to report about Jianglin Hotel, hurriedly buying five of each item from the display before leaving.
Shortly after Ling Feng and his companions left, several students who had returned to their rooms earlier ca out.
Seeing Chu Jiangyue at the counter, they all greeted her, "Good evening, Boss Chu!"
"Good evening, Boss Chu."
...
Chu Jiangyue nodded slightly, showing no reaction to their appearance.
"Boss Chu, we’d like to buy so food."
Previously trapped in an underground parking garage, they had almost no supplies on them when rescued by Shen Zhigui’s group.
Now that they’ve settled in, their stomachs are protesting.
Asthey ca over, Shen Zhigui’s group had inford them they could buy food at the hotel.
"Feel free, don’t mind ."
After speaking, worried that her presence might make them uncomfortable, Chu Jiangyue stood up from the seat and left Building 1.
anwhile, Ling Feng and his companions, upon leaving Jianglin Hotel, ignored their injuries and rushed back.
The Level 1 Zombies tied up by Chu Jiangyue were now nowhere to be seen, allowing them to quickly leave the bounds of Prosperity Heights.
"Boss, who should we report this matter to once we’re back?"
The issue with Jianglin Hotel was critical. If they approached the wrong person, they might unintentionally offend Boss Chu.
Don’t be fooled by Boss Chu’s young appearance; anyone brave enough to run a hotel alone during the apocalypse isn’t simple.
Offending Boss Chu is definitely not advisable.
"Go straight to the base chief."
Ling Feng wasn’t familiar with other leaders, but he knew the base chief genuinely cared for all residents of the base.
The other two always followed Ling Feng’s lead, rarely disagreeing with him.
Jianglin Hotel.
"Host, I have a premonition that we’ll soon be welcoming a new batch of guests!"
Once Ling Feng and his companions spread the word about them in B City Safety Base, so would definitely believe and co despite the scorching weather.
As long as they arrived, Little Fox was confident the hotel could keep them.
After all, the hotel was the only refuge unaffected by the external high-temperature climate.
Hearing Little Fox’s comnts, Chu Jiangyue smiled, knowing that if the people from the base weren’t foolish, they should know what to do.
Chu Jiangyue walked along the stone path within Jianglin Hotel, soon reaching the hotel’s edge.
"Little Fox, why do I feel like the surrounding land is becoming increasingly desertified?"
She hadn’t noticed earlier, but suddenly standing at the edge of Jianglin Hotel, looking at the contrasting land colors inside and outside, her brow furrowed slightly.
"Host, Blue Star has already entered its apocalyptic era."
Thus, anything is possible.
Chu Jiangyue pursed her lips, realizing this apocalypse was truly a catastrophe for humanity.
Little Fox didn’t say much more, standing on Chu Jiangyue’s shoulder, with its nine tails swaying in the wind.
At that mont, a zombie staggered past Chu Jiangyue, but it didn’t notice her due to the hotel’s barrier between them.
Whether it was a trick of Chu Jiangyue’s mind or not, she felt the desertifying land was rising little by little.
So low-lying villas had sand encroaching, beginning to bury them.
The high temperatures and desertified land truly offered no way out for humanity.
However, after watching for a while, Chu Jiangyue stopped observing.
Rather than lanting the situation, she preferred to upgrade the hotel soon, striving to accommodate more people.
Chu Jiangyue entered her small two-story wooden house; the first floor was the living room, kitchen-dining area, and bathroom, while the second floor contained her bedroom, study, closet-room, bathroom connected to the bedroom.
＊
Ling Feng and his companions traveled swiftly, and since B City Safety Base wasn’t far from Jianglin Hotel,
they hurriedly arrived back at B City Safety Base by 11 pm.
Due to Ling Feng’s injuries, upon returning to the base he had to be isolated in a room for 24 hours, ensuring he wouldn’t turn into a zombie before being allowed to leave.
