Chapter 139
"Cool car, isn't it?" Yun Xiaoxiao said with a grin.
Liu Yi and the others: ......
Is that really the key issue here?!
"You can put your stuff away later. Let me take you to dinner first."
"No... no need, we still have some food," Lei Chunyan hurriedly refused.
"Don't worry, it's your first day at the base. Dinner is free tonight, eat as much as you want."
The group looked at each other before following her.
Along the way, their eyes never rested.
They looked here and there, taking everything in.
The more they saw, the more shocked and amazed they became.
This place was like a newly built, beautiful city!
"Is this a hospital?!"
When they arrived at the hospital entrance, Liu Yi's eyes suddenly lit up with delight.
There was even a hospital here!
And when they saw the various home-cooked dishes inside, steaming hot and smelling of meat, they became even more excited.
They had almost forgotten the taste of meat!
Although Lei Chunyan's family had some food stored, it was limited and the quantity was decreasing day by day.
They only dared to eat until they were half full.
Because they didn't know how long those days would last, they worried that when the food finally ran out, they would have to go hungry.
After everyone arrived, they all introduced themselves.
They were all people who had suffered hardships, and as they talked about their experiences, they quickly found common ground.
After dinner, Yun Xiaoxiao handed out point cards to everyone.
She had already pre-loaded the cards and set up the daily point increase in the machine.
So every morning, new points would be credited to everyone's card.
This was essentially their salary.
Of course, rent would be automatically deducted for those who needed to pay.
She took out a card reader and placed it in the cafeteria, explaining to everyone how to use the point cards and demonstrating it.
"From now on, if you want to eat in the cafeteria, just swipe your card.
Different dishes require different amounts of points.
Of course, you can also buy vegetables, meat, and rice to cook at home."
Then, she also informed everyone about the opening of the department store.
After hearing this, everyone was so shocked they could hardly express it in words.
They immediately said they wanted to go and have a look.
While it was still not completely dark, everyone set out together.
When they reached the first floor of the department store and saw the neatly arranged supplies in the bright shops, everyone's eyes sparkled with surprise and joy.
Nie Yizhou laughed, "I never thought I'd be leisurely shopping in a supermarket in this apocalyptic world!"
"So much food! I feel hungry again. It's been so long since I've had instant noodles and spicy strips!" Tan Lili swallowed.
Everyone eagerly walked in.
"You can swipe your card on the machine first to check your points, then choose what you need," Yun Xiaoxiao reminded them.
In the end, almost everyone chose something they wanted.
For example, Nie Yizhou bought himself a pair of big shorts.
Bright red ones, at that.
Tan Lili bought a pack of beef-flavored instant noodles and a pack of Weilong spicy strips.
Ye Shuyuan and Du Juan both bought sanitary napkins.
Zhong Mingsheng and Fan Wenying bought two thermos flasks and a pack of goji berries.
......
Because it was just the beginning, everyone didn't have many points.
So they all chose cheaper, smaller items.
Although they couldn't afford many of the supplies now, just looking at them made them feel good.
This was hope!
While people outside the base were still worrying about food and survival, fearing they might not make it through each day, they could shop in a supermarket just like before the apocalypse. They were already better off than many others!
As they took their items to check out, they wondered who would play the role of cashier.
When they saw the cute and silly Er Bai (robot), everyone was amazed.
What an advanced robot!
That night, everyone slept especially soundly.
For the next two days, Mu Yang worked overtime with Lu Chen and Xiao Feng to manufacture apocalypse RVs.
Meanwhile, Yun Xiaoxiao, along with Ling Jing and Lei Chunyan's family, were busy harvesting ripe vegetables outside the base.
Some vegetables would rot if not harvested soon.
Wasting food was considered very shameful now.
So they had to harvest everything before the vegetables spoiled.
Time flew by, and two days passed.
On this morning.
Yun Xiaoxiao, Ling Jing, Xiao Feng, and Nie Yizhou entered the RV.
"Big brother, I'm leaving the base to you and Brother Mu Yang," Yun Xiaoxiao waved to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen wanted to say something, but in the end, he just nodded.
"Be careful on the road."
"Okay."
For this trip to Xiang City TV Station, Xiao Feng was familiar with the route, so he had to go.
Nie Yizhou could teleport, so his presence could reduce a lot of danger.
As for Ling Jing...
He wasn't very stable now, and if left at the base, Yun Xiaoxiao worried that if he went berserk, Lu Chen alone might not be able to handle it.
In that case, the people in the base would suffer.
Rather than leaving and still worrying, it was better to bring him along.
Even if he went berserk, there wasn't much to worry about outside.
They were leaving, but the base couldn't be left unattended.
There had to be someone with absolute strength staying behind.
So with Lu Chen and Mu Yang staying to manage things, Yun Xiaoxiao felt at ease.
The RV drove out of the base's main gate, quickly heading towards the highway.
From the base to Xiang City, if the journey went smoothly, they could arrive by nightfall.
They followed the highway all the way, eventually getting onto the expressway.
On the expressway, the road was wide and clear.
They only occasionally encountered one or two abandoned cars on the roadside.
Inside the RV, flashy dance music was playing as they sped along.
"Baby baby baby oh~ Come~ Baby baby baby no~"
Nie Yizhou sat in the passenger seat, bobbing his head to the music while singing passionately.
His voice...
Ahem...
It was like a pig being slaughtered!
"Can you be quiet for a bit!" Xiao Feng couldn't stand it anymore.
Nie Yizhou was completely hyped up now.
"Come on brother! Get hyped!"
He enthusiastically invited Xiao Feng, who was driving.
Xiao Feng rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"You're crazy!"
While it was noisy in the front of the vehicle.
It was much quieter inside.
Ling Jing was lying on the RV's bed with his legs crossed, taking a nap.
Yun Xiaoxiao sat to the side, watching a movie on a tablet.
It was a comedy.
When she reached exciting parts, she would laugh out loud without restraint.
Ling Jing looked up at her more than once.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore.
"Little one, can you tone down your laughter a bit?" His voice came out through gritted teeth.
Anyone would be furious if someone kept interrupting their sleep with loud laughter.
"Why should I tone it down?" Yun Xiaoxiao looked at him curiously.
"It's really funny, you know."
As she spoke, she popped a piece of milk candy into her mouth and chewed.
Mm, delicious!
