Seeing Chu Jiangyue was insistent, completely uninterested in lowering the price, Song Chengjun ultimately had to compromise.
"Alright, then prepare 1,000 copies for me first. But could you help modify it so that the three-day countdown only starts when we need to use it?"
Otherwise, if he took them back and hadn’t arranged everything, the flyers would be useless, which would be money wasted.
"Host, I can modify the settings. When you need to use the flyer, just tear along the dashed line at the top right corner, and it will still expire in three days."
Previously, Little Fox had made the flyers as it pleased, but now that Song Chengjun was paying for them, it didn’t mind accommodating some small requests.
After all, it would ultimately receive energy.
Chu Jiangyue remained composed, nodded towards Song Chengjun: "We can make some improvements according to your requirements, but it will take time. First, give a 30% deposit and come find me to pick up the flyers tomorrow."
The distance from Jianglin Hotel to B City Safety Base was quite far, and Chu Jiangyue didn’t want to just leave B City Safety Base without accomplishing anything.
Today, she planned to stay at the base for the night, which Song Chengjun would have to arrange.
"Help me arrange a place to stay."
Chu Jiangyue was quite straightforward in directing people.
Song Chengjun glanced at Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui’s group of five, finally nodding his head: "Follow me."
As the captain of the B City Safety Base patrol team, he had the ability to arrange some rooms for them.
Song Chengjun led Chu Jiangyue and six others, twisting and turning, until they arrived in front of a desolate villa that seemed uninhabited.
"I know you value privacy, this place is remote and usually no one comes here.
The house hasn’t been lived in. If you want to stay, you only need to do a simple cleanup."
Song Chengjun finished speaking, looking at Chu Jiangyue.
"It’s not free, is it? Tell me how much for one night?"
Even though it’s a bit run-down, Chu Jiangyue had lived in worse slums in her past life, so an uninhabited villa was manageable.
"Boss Chu understands me. Generally speaking, the house doesn’t support short stays; the shortest is half a year.
But with me here, I applied for a two-day stay, ten Level 1 Zombie Crystal Cores per day. This is the discount price I got for you, and it’s exclusive."
Song Chengjun tried to impress Chu Jiangyue, aiming to leave a better impression on her.
"This is way pricier than my hotel."
The rooms at Jianglin Hotel at least had full water and electricity, and a standard single room was only 100 copper coins, which equaled 1 Zombie Crystal Core.
The base’s house, despite its space, had nothing else, making it vastly different from Jianglin Hotel.
But now there weren’t any other options, so Chu Jiangyue could only accept.
However, as Chu Jiangyue was about to take the Crystal Core from the system backpack to give to Song Chengjun, Shen Zhigui stopped her:
"We’ve been using your car all the way here, and even joined for quite a meal at lunch. We can’t keep letting you take the hit, we’ll cover the accommodation costs."
Shen Zhigui looked at Jiang He, who immediately understood and took out 10 Level 1 Zombie Crystal Cores from his space and handed them to Song Chengjun.
Song Chengjun unceremoniously accepted the Crystal Cores: "I’ll go find the base leader for approval on the deposit, and transfer it to you tonight."
Having said that, he quickly turned and left, fearing Chu Jiangyue might insist on getting the deposit now.
Chu Jiangyue: ...
Did she seem like someone who would coerce people?
"We’ll clean up the rooms; see which one you’d like to stay in?"
Although Chu Jiangyue usually exhibited a very assertive demeanor, she was ultimately a girl, and with those guys around, they couldn’t let a girl do the chores.
"Yes, Boss Chu, pick a room, we’ll clean it up."
The other members echoed, not finding anything wrong with Shen Zhigui’s suggestion.
When out and about, it’s proper to take care of girls.
Of course, provided this girl gets along with them.
If she were the troublesome type, they probably wouldn’t be willing to help.
Everyone carries a bit of a double standard.
Chu Jiangyue was initially a bit embarrassed, but Shen Zhigui and the others insisted, so she eventually relented.
"Then you guys go ahead, I’ll head out for a stroll."
Just moments ago, they’d arrived at the trading area and Song Chengjun appeared, leaving many places unexplored.
Chu Jiangyue remembered that in her previous life, there was an old lady specializing in selling seeds in the trading market.
But seeds couldn’t be eaten or planted successfully, so her stall was mainly ignored.
It was when Chu Jiangyue was once browsing the trading market by chance that she occasionally bought something from her.
At the time, Jiang Zhenzhen had swindled quite a bit from her, making life difficult, so even if she wanted to buy more, she couldn’t afford more from the old lady.
Now, things were different. She was no longer the naïve girl who believed everything Jiang Zhenzhen said.
Now she could afford to buy all the seeds the old lady had.
Chu Jiangyue wanted to buy seeds to see if they could be grown at Jianglin Hotel.
If it worked, she could set up a long-term seed collection task and have Jianglin Hotel guests help her find seeds.
Thinking about this, Chu Jiangyue followed the memory of her past life’s market path.
"Hey, miss, want to buy a bag?"
"Handcrafted wooden carvings, want to take a look, miss?"
...
As soon as Chu Jiangyue stepped into the trading market, she was quickly noticed.
Of course, earlier she had exchanged several corn cobs for a few jade bracelets with the jade stall owner, and quite a few had seen it.
But at that time, Shen Zhigui and the other five were with her, and later Song Chengjun joined, so even if people wanted to approach her, they dared not.
To their surprise, the foolishly rich girl came alone to the market.
No sooner had she entered than she had attracted countless stall vendors’ attention.
But Chu Jiangyue ignored them, clearly aware they knew she was acquainted with Song Chengjun and had several tall and strong men accompanying her earlier, so they only dared to speak to her and not obstruct her.
Chu Jiangyue walked the market through the twists and turns in her memory until she reached a corner with a small stall, covered with a piece of frayed cloth on the ground, showcasing several packets of seeds.
Judging by the time, it was nearly a year into the apocalyptic period in her past life when she bought seeds from the old lady.
Now, she was taking advantage of her rebirth, mulling over some gains.
"Granny, how much for these seeds?"
Squatting beside the old lady’s stall, Chu Jiangyue tried to use her most pleasant tone to inquire.
"Y-you want to buy?"
Surprised, the old lady hadn’t expected Chu Jiangyue to disregard so many offers and finally choose her stall.
"Yes, I have a Wood Element Ability and want to buy some seeds to see if I can grow them."
