"This is Song Chengjun, the head of the base’s patrol team. This ti, he represents the B City Safety Base and wants to collaborate with Boss Chu.
Captain Song, this is Chu Jiangyue, Boss of Jianglin Hotel."
Ling Feng took the initiative to introduce both parties to each other.
"Boss Chu, I’ve heard a lot about you."
Song Chengjun extended his hand.
"Hello." Chu Jiangyue lightly clasped Song Chengjun’s hand, releasing it after just a second, "The hotel just opened, so it’s a bit small. Please excuse us."
The group entered Building No. 1, which felt a bit crowded due to the number of people present.
"Let’s get down to business first. I’ll have them line up to recharge and process the Identity Cards."
This ti, Song Chengjun brought a team of more than a hundred people. The main goal was to equip as many people as possible with Identity Cards, allowing for broader online communication.
The people Song Chengjun brought were carefully selected and, upon command, quickly assembled.
No matter when, seeing such a well-trained team always evoked a sense of admiration in Chu Jiangyue.
During the three years of the apocalypse, she had been saved by such a group a few tis, though never by Song Chengjun.
Chu Jiangyue rembered that when she entered the B City Safety Base in her previous life, the head of the base’s patrol team was not Song Chengjun.
So... what happened to him later?
However, now wasn’t the ti to talk about these things.
"What kind of collaboration does Captain Song want to discuss with ?"
"The base wants to establish a long-term collaboration with your hotel. If possible, we’d like to open a safe passage between your hotel and the base to facilitate mutual exchange."
Coming from a military background, Song Chengjun favored straightforward negotiations.
Chu Jiangyue appreciated his candor. If the B City Safety Base had sent a negotiation expert who was overly circuitous, Chu Jiangyue might not be so agreeable.
"Establishing a safe passage is not an easy task."
Currently, the global magnetic field is disrupted, making it difficult for us to survey many areas, and planning routes is a challenge.
"Host, host, they can’t, but I can! We have the maps and construction materials!"
Upon hearing the conversation between Chu Jiangyue and Song Chengjun, Little Fox knew its chance had co.
This was a crucial avenue for expanding client sources!
’What are you talking about? Besides guest rooms, the hotel has only unlocked a bunch of food.’
"Once the host signs an agreent with the B City Safety Base, the relevant items can be unlocked."
This was a hidden mission, and triggering it depended on luck.
It seed Chu Jiangyue had a bit of luck on her side.
In just a few days, she encountered a major base wanting to sign a contract.
After hearing from Little Fox, Chu Jiangyue roughly understood.
If that was the case, then she should not hesitate to start laying out her conditions.
"Boss Chu, if you have any suggestions, feel free to bring them up."
The main reason Lu Zhengyao proposed this idea was to enable all the residents in the base to acquire an Identity Card.
This would make future managent much more efficient and convenient.
"Here’s the thing, I can provide all the construction materials required for the safe passage, and I can assure you that the safe passage built with my materials will be free from zombie disturbances.
However, these materials aren’t cheap."
"We’ll buy them!"
If this safe passage is indeed as Chu Jiangyue describes, free from zombie disturbances, no matter the cost, they must secure it.
Chu Jiangyue raised an eyebrow; it seed the base was indeed wealthy.
"Captain Song, take a look at this contract. If you see no issues, just sign it."
With a flick of her hand, a virtual screen appeared before them, showcasing the sales contract for the construction materials needed for the safe passage they had just discussed.
Song Chengjun flipped through the pages, his heart aching when he saw the price of 1 gold coin per ter for the construction materials.
This was a lot of money!
gold coin was equivalent to 10,000 copper coins, and exchanging it for Level 1 Zombie Crystal Cores would require 100 zombies.
The workload was enough to make Song Chengjun nearly black out.
Moreover, the contract clearly stated that the hotel was rely the seller of the construction materials. After purchasing the materials, they had to organize their own people to construct the road.
The most considerate part was that Chu Jiangyue would kindly provide an optimal route, ensuring minimal danger during construction and no need for detours.
"Boss Chu, isn’t 1 gold coin per ter a bit too expensive? The distance from the base to the hotel isn’t short, and even in a straight line, it’s over ten kiloters."
Before the apocalypse, this distance was just a matter of pressing the accelerator a few tis, but now, with zombies everywhere and various rocky obstacles on the road, clearing roadblocks alone wasn’t a small task.
"That’s not my problem to consider. I’ve already given you a discount; if it were soone else, I’d double the price."
Chu Jiangyue wasn’t trying to deceive Song Chengjun. The contract price Little Fox provided was 80 silver coins per ter. To profit, she naturally had to raise the price, usually doubling it, but she restrained herself from charging them 1 gold coin 60 silver coins per ter.
"If you can’t gather so much money at once, you can opt for installnt paynts.
The contract will specify the dates for subsequent paynts, and the hotel will automatically deduct the amount on the due date; you only need to ensure there’s enough balance on the corresponding Identity Card."
She only raised it by 20 silver coins and allowed installnt paynts, making Chu Jiangyue feel exceptionally generous and kind today.
Upon hearing the price of 1 gold coin per ter, Ling Feng thought it was an outrageous price, but upon reconsideration, since this ensured a safe passage free from zombie threats, 1 gold coin per ter didn’t seem so exorbitant.
"I brought a batch of gold and zombie crystal cores with this ti, but I’m not sure how much money they can exchange for yet.
Besides buying construction materials for the safe passage, I also need to save so money for other supplies."
Whether it’s stead buns, pork buns, or bok choy, he definitely had to buy them.
How much he could buy depended on how much money the items he brought could exchange for.
Now, the people Song Chengjun brought were still queuing to recharge and process their Identity Cards, so there was still waiting to be done.
"Host, host, let kindly provide an Exchange Device for you!"
Since a major client was rare, Little Fox painfully contributed the points it had accumulated from Chu Jiangyue’s previous missions to internally purchase her an Exchange Device, placing it beside the original one.
Seeing the suddenly appearing Exchange Device, Chu Jiangyue fell into contemplation.
It seed Little Fox wasn’t as simple and harmless as it appeared; it even friendly provided her with an Exchange Device.
"Captain Song, if you have many items, you can proceed over here."
However, Chu Jiangyue didn’t show any unusual behavior and directly led Song Chengjun to Little Fox’s kindly provided Exchange Device, then called over the Space Ability Users they had brought.
Chu Jiangyue: So, the B City Safety Base already has Space Ability Users?
As expected, her capabilities in her past life were inadequate, leaving her too ignorant of the world.
