"Boss Chu is right, I think you should ask them.
If they aren’t willing to part with even a bit of those things, then they’re just..." white-eyed wolves.
Ling Feng also spoke up, watching Song Chengjun troubled over the issue of gold coins, while those teachers and students didn’t utter a word, not even showing concern, Ling Feng felt a chill in his heart.
These people had wasted their goodwill.
"If there’s anything we can help with, we’ll definitely do our best."
Lu Hua’an had been attentively listening to the conversation between Song Chengjun and Chu Jiangyue, knowing they needed to trade sothing for funds, but not knowing what they needed.
"The issue now is, if everyone gets on the vehicle, it’ll result in overloading. In order to disregard overloading and get everyone on board, we must gather 25 gold coins, initiate a temporary exchange channel, and exchange enough for 20 gold coins to eliminate the overload alarm.
To exchange for gold coins, one needs gold, silver, and jewelry; Zombie Crystal Cores can also be used."
Song Chengjun knew that Lu Hua’an and several superpower users who ca out to kill zombies had collected Zombie Crystal Cores after seeing them gather cores.
If they were willing to exchange their own Zombie Crystal Cores, they could still accumulate a considerable amount.
"Gold and silver jewelry? I only have a watch, and the jade pendant my mother gave .
From the zombies killed today, all I found were a few white transparent crystal cores, not many."
Lu Hua’an took off his watch, but he was reluctant to part with the jade pendant given by his mother.
"With zombies rampant, these gold and silver jewels are no longer useful; food is what’s most important now."
Song Chengjun reminded him.
"Oh well, anything we can gather helps."
Lu Hua’an handed over his watch, pendant, and the crystal cores he collected today to Song Chengjun.
The several power users who followed Lu Hua’an to kill zombies also brought out what they had.
Unfortunately, whether teachers or students, few had the habit of wearing jewelry. Other than the crystal cores, they had nothing else to offer.
"I have a golden bracelet, a platinum ring, and quite a few necklaces, take a look."
The teacher who organized the students also stood up, taking off the adornnts worn.
With a few people stepping up, many followed suit, handing over their worn items.
Song Chengjun couldn’t carry so much alone, so Shen Zhigui let Jiang He, the Space Ability User, co and help collect.
Because of the existence of Jianglin Hotel, Jiang He’s space wasn’t very full, leaving space for so gold and silver jewels.
Chu Jiangyue sat quietly in the driver’s seat of her silver SUV, waiting for Song Chengjun to raise funds.
"Um... big sister..."
"Boss Chu?"
Upon hearing ’Boss Chu,’ Chu Jiangyue instinctively opened her eyes, looking toward the direction of the voice: "What’s up?"
"Brother Song kept trying to ask you questions, the Jianglin Hotel they’re talking about, is it yours?"
Chu Jiangyue nodded: "Yes, I own it."
"Brother Song said that now there are zombies everywhere, aren’t you scared running a hotel alone?"
Kids always have many questions.
"Zombies can’t enter my hotel."
Zombies automatically avoid within a 10-ter radius of Jianglin Hotel, never stepping foot in that circle.
"Wow! If your hotel is so amazing, isn’t the base even better? Zombies can’t co in, that’s fantastic!"
Unlike them, spending days nervously in the cafeteria, afraid they’d be attacked by zombies, worried that they’d end up surrounded and without even bones left.
Chu Jiangyue glanced at that student, eyes large and round, cute but apparently in poor spirits.
"You’re mistaken; the base doesn’t have that ability."
Chu Jiangyue’s words were like a cold shower to the girl.
"But don’t worry, as long as you have enough gold coins to pay rent and fill your stomach daily, you can live long-term in the hotel.
As long as you don’t do anything to harm the hotel’s interests, I absolutely won’t drive you away."
After giving a cold shower, she imdiately offered a sweet date.
"Really? But we’re just ordinary people..."
The little girl seed disheartened; who knew how enviously she watched those abilities users wield their powers.
This Boss Sister is also soone with superpowers.
"Level 1 zombies are still easy to kill; in my hotel, you only need two crystal cores to cover a day."
copper coins for a single room’s rent; the remaining 100 copper coins cover buns and stead buns to fill the stomach. If you eat less, there might be so left from 200 copper coins.
"As for you guys... you can try asking those brothers who fought today to teach you so skills when they’re free; it’ll make killing zombies more assured.
Regarding superpowers... everyone has a chance to awaken them; it depends on whether you can seize the opportunity."
So awaken superpowers when their life is on the line.
Others awaken under great emotional swings, embarking on a different life.
So awaken unexpectedly, adding a miraculous touch to their ordinary lives.
...
Then again, so live their entire lives unable to awaken superpowers—it’s just fate.
"Do you an we might have a chance to awaken superpowers?"
The girl’s eyes filled with anticipation, her gaze toward Chu Jiangyue seemingly glowing.
But this Boss Sister... what sort of title is that?
"It’s the sa for everyone."
Chu Jiangyue naturally wouldn’t give a definite answer, for she hadn’t seen them in her past life and didn’t know if they’d awaken powers in the future.
If they didn’t awaken and blad her, it’d be undeserved.
"Thank you, Boss Sister, we’ll strive to awaken powers!"
As long as there’s hope, their efforts have direction, aiming to beco superpower users soday.
"Good luck."
Chu Jiangyue’s encouragent was slightly dismissive.
Before the girl could respond, Song Chengjun ca over with Jiang He and his subordinates.
"Boss Chu, the items we collected are all here; we’re counting on you."
"Pay 5 gold coins first, then initiate the temporary exchange channel."
Chu Jiangyue waved her hand, creating a virtual bi-directional screen between them.
"Just place your Identity Card in the sensing area."
It’s just for ceremony; the money transaction is handled by the Little Fox.
Following instructions, Song Chengjun placed his Identity Card on the virtual screen’s "sensing area."
Once inserted, Song Chengjun saw his balance decrease by 5 gold coins.
Don’t ask; asking brings heartache.
"Alright, pile up the items; I’ll initiate the exchange channel."
Song Chengjun spread a layer of transparent plastic on the ground before placing the collected items on top.
Jiang He released the items from his space, and Song Chengjun’s subordinates also put their items down.
They hadn’t thought it was much, but seeing it all together, it was quite a bit, like a small mountain.
