Hearing this, Xu Ying understood everything. Did the military think that there was a syndicate behind Peach Blossom Land? She laughed in her head, but she did not show it on her face.
“I hope you don’t mind. I also feel that living in Peach Blossom Land is very comfortable. Just treat me as an ordinary tenant.” Ge Aiyao really liked this place now, and she didn’t want to become enemies with Xu Ying.
Xu Ying didn’t make things difficult for her, but she asked again, “You said you’re from the military. Do you know Wei Qiyan?”
“Major Wei? Of course I do.” Wei Qiyan was her grandfather’s trusted aide, and he was secretly groomed to be the future successor of the Vermilion Bird Base. In the beginning, her grandfather wanted to nurture her and a few other cousins, but he realized that they were too weak, so he switched his attention to Wei Qiyan. However, she was convinced that Wei Qiyan’s overall strength was the best among them, and he was also the most loyal to the Vermilion Bird Base.
Xu Ying nodded. It was fine. She trusted Wei Qiyan, so she would naturally label Ge Aiyao as a good person. She just didn’t know when Wei Qiyan would return. He had been out on missions for three days without any news. However, she still wanted to wait for Wei Mingyue to finish her studies and ask if there was any news from her brother. When Wei Mingyue came back from school, she raised the communicator in front of her and said, “Sister Ying, our Peach Blossom Land is famous now.”
Xu Ying saw Ji Ke’s article and the photo of him sitting at the dining table in the living room with a steaming bun in his hand. In the background of the photo, there was a clean and brand new sofa and a big screen TV. There were also the smiles of the tenants talking to each other.
Perhaps it was because the article was written too well, or perhaps it was because the rich and clean life shown in the photos was too impactful, the number of comments exceeded 200,000.
This number of comments…Xu Ying finally realized what was going on. This article was definitely not only seen by the people in Vermilion Bird Base, because there were only about 50,000 people in Vermilion Bird Base.
Wei Mingyue said happily, “The Black Tortoise Base next door, or even the White Tiger Base and the Green Dragon Base 500 kilometers away. Anyway, many large bases have heard about our Peach Blossom Land. I heard that a large group of people have packed their luggage overnight and are on their way here.”
Xu Ying was speechless. No, she didn’t have that many rooms. She quickly checked the AI butler’s visitor records and found that the number of visitors in the past two days had reached 5,000!
Xu Ying clutched her chest, thinking about the 74000 gold coins that she had saved up with great difficulty. Now, she had to spend a lot of money to expand. She still wanted to save up 100,000 gold coins before expanding and leveling up. But now, it seemed that she still had to build a house first! Gritting her teeth, she expanded five more single rooms and five double rooms. All of them were renovated, and she spent a total of 35000 gold coins.
After that, Xu Ying began to worry about a fire or an earthquake. She wanted to buy an alarm. She also wanted to get some surveillance cameras to be placed in public areas. If she could install a few more speakers and build a broadcast room, the security would definitely be extraordinary. However, she had a lot of ideas. She searched the system store for a long time but could not find any safety facilities.
[The above items are all in the hidden store. To unlock and purchase them, you need to trigger a hidden mission and complete it.]
Xu Ying was stunned. There was a hidden mission in the rental system? But now, she had no choice but to stick the rules at the corner of each corridor. For the time being, she could only rely on the tenants to be considerate. There were more people who would need more food. She added a breakfast machine and two bento freezers.
The bento freezer cost 1500 gold coins per unit. The food could be kept fresh for up to four days inside, and the daily purchase cost was 300 yuan. It was still ten portions, and each bento could be sold for 60 yuan. There were also many types of bento boxes, such as rice with various vegetables, soup noodles, and small stir-fried vegetables. Xu Ying, who was born after the apocalypse, had never seen these things before.
The living room became crowded with these things. Xu Ying felt uncomfortable looking at them, so she built a single room. This way, she could have a few more corridors and double the size of the public area. After setting up all this, she still had 36000 gold coins left. It was enough for emergencies. After taking one last look at her masterpiece, Xu Ying went to sleep with satisfaction.
When she woke up in the morning, Xu Ying could hear the noise outside. After washing up, she went out of her room and saw everyone sitting together in the small canteen, eating and chatting.
Seeing her come out, everyone began to call out to her enthusiastically. “Miss Xu, the place has changed a lot in just one night. I showed it to my friends, and they were so envious. They all asked me if there were any rooms left.”
“I’ve never lived in a house with a canteen. Miss Xu, this place is simply heaven..”
