Shen Zhigui drove using navigation and quickly brought the car to a place where Little Fox had scanned and found survivors living.
This place was a residential area before the apocalypse, and the snow on the community gate had been cleaned up by people.
Shen Zhigui parked the car outside the community gate. Inside, many people were peeking, clearly trying to gauge the intentions of Chu Jiangyue and the others.
Chu Jiangyue’s goal was to find more people to promote Jianglin Hotel and attract more people to spend there.
So, after Shen Zhigui stopped the car, Chu Jiangyue got out without much hesitation.
Shen Zhigui also got out, while the little girl in the back seat looked at Chu Jiangyue’s back as she got out and finally decided to stay in the car so as not to trouble Chu Jiangyue.
Subsequently, Jin Chuyu and others also got out. The people inside the base, seeing so many people suddenly coming from outside, were filled with surprise and doubt.
In such extreme cold weather, these people were merely wearing a single layer of clothing yet could move freely; those inside the base could hardly believe their eyes.
Chu Jiangyue walked to the base entrance and looked at the guards on both sides.
"Tell your base chief we have normal food and protective clothing for sale here. If interested, bring some Crystal Cores to buy from me."
Previously, when Chu Jiangyue encountered survivors, she used flyers as a breakthrough point to negotiate with them.
But every time flyers were distributed, there were too many people, and Chu Jiangyue couldn’t keep monitoring whether they were effectively used.
However, having them bring Crystal Cores to buy not only made money but also promoted Jianglin Hotel, which Chu Jiangyue felt was a great idea.
Thus, there was this scene of Chu Jiangyue approaching to find the base guards.
But as soon as Chu Jiangyue approached and spoke, the guards were obviously skeptical, given the prevalence of deceit and fraud these days.
"Look at them, they’re only wearing one piece of clothing, but they don’t seem cold at all?
This highlights the importance of protective clothing. Of course, if you have enough Crystal Cores, you can have one too!"
Chu Jiangyue tugged on Shen Zhigui’s protective warm outfit, showing it to the two base guards.
"Yes, I bought it from her. The protective effect is excellent; wearing one piece is sufficient."
Shen Zhigui cooperated very well, even tugging on his clothes himself to demonstrate the rugged durability.
The two guards watched Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui speaking convincingly and exchanged a look.
But as it was their duty hours, they couldn’t leave their posts; the guards ultimately suppressed their curiosity.
Chu Jiangyue: ...
Despite all her efforts, the other party surprisingly remained unmoved.
"How can you guarantee what you said is true?"
The guards resisted the temptation, but those observing inside the base couldn’t sit still.
As if what Chu Jiangyue said was true, the clothing they wore could keep them warm, which was precisely what they needed most now.
Chu Jiangyue suddenly turned to look at the person walking out from the base, her face full of smiles.
"Simple! I’ll let you try a sample outfit!"
With that, Chu Jiangyue flipped her hand, producing a brand new protective warm outfit.
"Same model protective warm outfit, 60 Level 1 Zombie Crystal Cores, non-negotiable price.
However, since you’re our first customer in T City, I’ll allow you to try it on for 2 minutes."
Chu Jiangyue handed the protective warm outfit to the man.
As for who would try it, that was not Chu Jiangyue’s concern.
The man signaled to his subordinates, and quickly, someone stepped forward to take the sample outfit from Chu Jiangyue.
But because he was wearing layers of clothes, he walked like a penguin, and his movements were ungainly as he took the sample outfit from Chu Jiangyue’s hands.
Chu Jiangyue didn’t show any disdain, handing the clothing to him.
"If you don’t mind, you can put it on here.
But I suggest you get rid of the thick clothes you’re wearing and try it on."
But in extreme cold weather, asking him to take off his clothes was a significant threat to his life, and the guy hesitated.
"Mr. Shen, could you please call Mr. Lin?"
At this moment, the existence of a Fire Ability User became immensely valuable.
Shen Zhigui certainly wouldn’t mind and immediately pulled Lin Xuyuan over.
"Boss Chu, what’s up?"
Lin Xuyuan had been watching the scene nearby, unexpectedly pulled over by Shen Zhigui.
"Warm him up so he can try the outfit."
Chu Jiangyue pointed at the sample protective warm outfit the guy held.
"No problem! Buddy, you can take it off; rest assured, I won’t let you feel cold."
Just warming someone up, Lin Xuyuan stated it was merely a piece of cake.
Lin Xuyuan’s hands quickly gathered fire ability, creating a wall around the guy holding the sample outfit.
The guy could clearly feel the heat from the flame wall, even sweating under his layers of clothing.
However, it wasn’t the time to dwell on such thoughts, and the guy quickly shed his layered clothes and put on the protective warm outfit from Chu Jiangyue.
Lin Xuyuan removed the flame wall as soon as he had the outfit on.
As Lin Xuyuan removed the flame wall, the boss wanted to say something.
But only the guy wearing the protective warm outfit knew how miraculous it felt.
"It’s really not cold! Boss, this clothing really works!"
The guy excitedly looked at the man, his expression genuinely thrilled.
This was the clothing allowing free movement in extreme cold weather, and when he thought about Chu Jiangyue’s price of 60 Level 1 Crystal Cores per piece, he found it surprisingly cheap.
With his subordinate’s affirmation, the man’s gaze towards Chu Jiangyue changed.
And Chu Jiangyue was smiling brightly: "So, sir, do you still think I’m lying?"
If a liar could produce such advanced tech clothing, Chu Jiangyue herself would find the rogue quite sincere.
"Of course not! Miss Chu’s clothing is excellent. I would like to order a batch from Miss Chu, I wonder..."
"Of course you can, you can first consider how much to buy, and when I get everything ready, we can trade; one hand for Crystal Cores, one hand for clothing.
Oh, friendly reminder, the durability of the protective warm outfit is only 30 days, remember to replace it after 30 days~"
As for the sample sent out earlier, it was a gift to them.
Anyway, the sample only lasted 3 days; when it expired naturally, business would come to them.
After all... it’s easy to go from frugality to luxury, but from luxury to frugality is hard.
The smile on Chu Jiangyue’s face was barely containable.
"Only 30 days?"
Upon hearing Chu Jiangyue’s words, the lead man had a somewhat gloomy expression,
no one expected the clothing to have durability; it wasn’t a game!
"Yes, if you think it’s not worthwhile, you can choose not to buy."
