Ge Aiyao scratched her head. “It’s alright. She’s quite straightforward. I told her my identity, but she didn’t kick me out.”

“I called you here today to discuss a business deal with Xu Ying.” Ge Yanjun nodded. The power grid outside the Peach Blossom Land could not only output high-voltage current, but the alloy walls were also very strong. They must have a factory to produce them. Talk to Xu Ying and say that you want a batch of power grids. We’ll take as many as they have!”

“What?” Ge Aiyao was stunned. “Use them in our Vermilion Bird Base? Grandpa, are you afraid that the zombies will attack the city after mutating in large numbers?”

“Very likely.” Ge Yanjun nodded solemnly. “As for the exact scale of the mutation, we still need to obtain the flesh and blood of the scimitar zombie. We can only confirm it after further research. No matter what, the sooner we build the city wall, the safer it will be.”

Ge Aiyao nodded.

However, Xu Ying couldn’t nod her head because she didn’t have the supply of the fence. The electric fence was from the hidden shop. Other than the ones that already existed in the outer area of Peach Blossom Land, she could not take out any of the electric fences. “If I had it, I would have sold it a long time ago.” She spread her hands at Ge Aiyao. “I’m short of money.” She also wanted to trigger the hidden mission as soon as possible so that the shop would be upgraded. However, she did not know what the hidden mission was.

Ge Aiyao was very disappointed. “If you have any of the electric fences in the future, please contact me immediately. Money is not a problem. Right, did Di Jie stay here before?”

Xu Ying frowned. “Yes, he was the one who burned down the house while practicing his supernatural power in the room. His attitude was very bad. I threw him out that afternoon.”

Ge Aiyao widened her eyes. “No wonder I smelled something burning when I passed by the corridor the night before. It turns out that someone was really playing with fire in the room! On the way back, I heard him complaining to the government of the base that Peach Blossom Land cheated him of his rent. He was kicked out after staying for less than two days, and the rent was not returned. Many idiots believe his words!”

Xu Ying was also speechless, but she was also open-minded. Her house was now a rarity, and fewer people coming to Peach Blossom Land would also reduce her workload.

However, Xu Ying was open-minded, but Ge Aiyao couldn’t. She felt that there was no place more virtuous and comfortable than Peach Blossom Land. She didn’t allow anyone to maliciously smear her. He turned around and rushed out like a bomb. Xu Ying didn’t stop him. She went straight to clean up. After all, there were more people now, and the public area was bigger. There was more work. She thought that it was time to find a cleaner. She was a little tired of working alone.

Just as she was about to mop the floor, a little girl had already finished mopping the floor for her and was about to throw away the trash in the living room.

Xu Ying recognized her. She was Lan Xiaofei, the daughter of a single mother in room 4. She was fourteen years old and no longer went to school. She usually managed the seeds in the plantation. After the apocalypse, education was no longer available to people for free. Those with better financial conditions, such as Wei Mingyue, could go to a private school. Other than studying cultural subjects, they also had to learn survival skills after the apocalypse. However, not everyone could afford to learn.

Seeing Xu Ying, Lan Xiaofei said embarrassedly, “I got off work early today. It’s okay if I help with cleaning up, right?”

“I was just about to thank you!” Xu Ying said with a smile.

Lan Xiaofei shook her head vigorously. “You’re welcome. My mother said that you’re a good person and asked me to help you more. I’ll come to clean up early after work in the future.”

“No need!” However, before Xu Ying could finish, the little girl had already run away. Xu Ying felt a little warm in her heart, but she also felt a little helpless. She should find an opportunity to talk to her mother. She could not let her do the work for free.

At night, Xu Ying stayed up all night. Her eyes were dizzy from reading the information sheet. The Xu family did not give up. Not only did Xu Changkai’s information appear on the application form, but Wei Jiaxi’s information also appeared. Xu Ying crossed it out without even looking at it. Shi Qinfeng was willing to let her precious daughter move out? How rare?

She wondered how Wei Jiaxi was doing in the army.

However, Xu Ying didn’t expect that she would find out about this very quickly. Wu Youhui, the chatterbox, complained as he ate in the restaurant, “That woman was really troublesome! When she was asked to collect the dead’s equipment, she shouted and pounced on the leader of Team Three. The leader of Team Three was so angry that he kicked her away. In the end, the woman even said that she was injured by the leader so badly that she couldn’t get up and work. What a jerk! I want to kick her when I see her…”

Xu Ying’s lips twitched, but she didn’t say anything.

Su Wei also bought a lunchbox. “Landlord Su, your place has changed so much. I almost can’t recognize it anymore.”

Xu Ying smiled and didn’t say anything. She turned to Wei Qiyan and said, “How long will you be back this time?”

Wei Qiyan wanted to say that he would follow the special investigation team to the scene tomorrow. However, when he looked into Xu Ying’s eyes, he suddenly couldn’t say anything. But, he said, “Three days.”
