Zhong Jia grimaced. “Such a dirty person would eat something in their mouth?” She had to give feedback on this matter. The people who ate the most food on the base were the military and civil servants. It was fine if they could not guarantee the production and quality of the food, but could they not guarantee hygiene? This is bad!

Yao Shuang frowned as well. She had already gone to tell him several times. The most infuriating thing was that the other party agreed readily and then did not change and continued to work.

Xu Ying’s expression was also not good. “You should observe her for a few more days. If she continues to affect everyone’s lives, we can only persuade her to leave. Oh right, find someone who can clean up quickly. We have more and more tenants. We can’t keep Xiao Fei busy.”

“Alright, then will we still be hiring for rent?” Yao Shuang nodded.

“Okay, I’ll only open 10 rooms a month for now.” Xu Ying planned to expand slowly, and she also had time to select high-quality tenants to establish the civilization of the entire Peach Blossom Land. Only then could it be stable for a long time.

However, the more urgent hidden mission was still a priority. Not only did the Vermilion Bird Base need it, but she also needed it, such as the entire house’s surveillance, fire and earthquake alarms, and she even wanted to strengthen the outer wall…The large-scale zombie evolution that Wei Qiyan mentioned made her feel that the second apocalypse was not far away. At that time, she was also sure if Peach Blossom Land could withstand it, so she had to level up!

That night, Dai Shuying finally returned. However, she had even called for a large pickup truck in the middle of the night.

Xu Ying rubbed her eyes as she came out to smuggle her supplies. Although these things were hers, it would be difficult to explain if others saw them. After all, everyone had limited purchases, but you opened the back door for the deputy commander of the City Defense Army? It would be troublesome to say it out, so it was better to do it secretly.

Dai Shuying was also an understanding person. The people she called over all kept quiet and tiptoed to carry the things away.

When the car was full, it was almost dawn. Xu Ying urged, “Sister Ying, that’s enough. I won’t run away from here.”

Dai Shuying finally stopped sweeping, but she was still reluctant to part. “When do you have rooms for renting? Can you leave me 40 rooms?” Instead of moving the supplies out of Peach Blossom Land, it was better to send people in. This way, there was no need to be sneaky.

Xu Ying was speechless. “We don’t have that many. Give up now.”

Dai Shuying was slightly disappointed. “Then I’ll come back later. I heard that you asked Wei Qiyan for a bodyguard. However, we can’t be careless. That beast has already killed more than ten people. There might be more bodies that we haven’t found yet.”

Xu Ying quivered.

“If you have to go out, let me know in advance. I’ll ‘watch’ you,” Dai Shuying continued.

Xu Ying was stunned for a moment before she realized that Dai Shuying was going to use Heavenly Eyes to help her avoid danger. She said gratefully, “Sister Ying, you’re so reliable. I’ll definitely report to you when I go out.”

After sending Dai Shuying off, Xu Ying went back to sleep. When she woke up, she called Zhong Jia to accompany her to buy a car. With bodyguards and Dai Shuying’s “caretaker”, she was much more confident when she went out. This way, she would be more reliable in finding the hidden mission.

The chances of buying a good car in the apocalypse were not high. Moreover, the car production line had been cut off for more than ten years, and there were fewer and fewer finished cars. Moreover, cars could only be bought in the military. After the apocalypse, there were fewer and fewer cars, so they were all controlled by the armed forces. If a private buyer wanted to buy it, he would need someone to introduce him.

Xu Ying greeted Wei Qiyan before she was brought to the garage. She didn’t know much about cars, so she asked Zhong Jia to help her choose.

Zhong Jia walked around and pointed at a sports car. “I’ll take it. It has good performance, can run very fast, and has a long lifespan. It’s just that it’s not up to par.”

“Do you know how to drive this car?” Xu Ying asked.

“Of course,” Zhong Jia said proudly.

Xu Ying immediately decided. “I’ll take it. How much is it?” It was definitely not expensive since it could only accommodate two people.

The person who showed them the car looked up. “800,000.”

Xu Ying looked at her 390,000 gold coins and said, “I can’t afford it. Next.”

“You don’t even have 800,000?” Zhong Jia was quite surprised. “Those rooms of yours look very valuable!”

Xu Ying looked at her, “Ma’am, how much do you earn a year?”

Zhong Jia: “My rank isn’t high. It’s about one million a year.”

Xu Ying: “Sorry to bother you. Come, help me pick again. Those within 300,000 coins.” The Wasteland Reclaimers were really earning money. Even Zhong Jia’s rank could earn millions a year. Then wouldn’t Wei Qiyan double it? No wonder he was so generous. Was it too late for her to join the army now?

It was too expensive to raise her rental system.
