【006】Kill the chicken to scare the monkey
After the upgrade, Gu Qing came down from his room.
When we arrived at the lobby, there were already many people in the lobby. There were already queues in front of the product sales counters and restaurants, especially the restaurant. Before, there was only white rice porridge, but now some new varieties have been added, and there is even rice. With home-style stir-fry, it is a rare treat for people who have basically never eaten hot food during this period.
As for the merchandise sales counter, there are obviously more snacks, as well as bread and other filling items, so naturally some people want to buy them.
Especially before, after a group of people came, they bought out all the items in the merchandise sales cabinet, letting them know that the hotel also had limited supplies, so they naturally wanted to stock up on some food.
While queuing up, many people were also talking about it.
“This Qingyun Hotel is really amazing.”
"Yeah! Just the fact that a zombie can't get in is enough for us to worship."
"It's a pity that the site is too small. We just released 50 rooms, and they were all snatched up in an instant."
"After all, there are hundreds of us now. We haven't slept well since the end of the world. If we can find a peaceful place to sleep, we can rent a room together, just for one night."
"I have never dared to kill zombies. I don't have enough crystal cores on hand. In order to fill my stomach in the future, starting from tomorrow, I will also go out with the team to kill zombies."
"Killing zombies is easier and safer now than before. Just lure people to the hotel and kill them. If you encounter danger, just run to the hotel."
"Yes, just protect the key parts from being bitten."
"Those with special powers are better. They are more resistant to zombie viruses and can go further to collect supplies, and then return to the hotel to resell them. What they are eyeing now is an outdoor activity store in the city, and they want to sell it in the hotel. We sell tents inside and rest in the parking lot outside.”
"Would it be cheaper to buy a tent?"
"It saves a little, but it's still inconvenient for you to take a bath or something."
"Take a shower! I never thought about it before."
"I can think about it now! After all, in such a difficult end of the world, there is still a piece of pure land here."
"..."
Yes, pure land!
Most people at the scene thought so.
Before they fell into the abyss and lost their humanity, having such a place gave them hope and the courage to face disasters.
Gu Qing listened to these discussions and relaxed unconsciously.
Maybe this is the point of building a base!
Give people a glimmer of hope at the end of the world.
However, she also knew that for the problems mentioned by these people, more survivors were needed to solve them.
Only when more people come to the hotel to spend money can she upgrade the hotel. The faster the hotel is upgraded, the more people it can accommodate.
And this kind of thing cannot be rushed.
Thinking about it, Gu Qing leisurely went to the restaurant to eat.
In the restaurant, Gu Qing happened to bump into a familiar figure.
"Hello." Zhou Shan greeted Gu Qing.
Looking at the young woman and children beside Zhou Shan, Gu Qing nodded slightly.
"When did you come to Qingyun Hotel?" Zhou Shan couldn't help but ask.
"I was the first one here. I originally wanted to go out to find the official base, but I happened to find this special hotel, so I settled here directly. I go out to kill zombies during the day and come back when I need a rest." Gu Qing gave an answer. Reasonable explanation.
After hearing this, Zhou Shan thought it was reasonable, smiled and said, "You are lucky."
"It's very nice. It's very nice here."
"I think it's good too." Zhou Shan nodded in approval. If it weren't for this hotel, ordinary people like them wouldn't know where to go.
Even if you go to some large security bases, you may still be bullied by superpowers. After all, there can be so many intrigues in a small community, let alone a large security base!
As for the current hotel, there are naturally people with super powers who came after hearing the news, but those people with super powers can't shake, or dare not, in front of the mysterious hotel.
After all, anyone with eyes can know the magical effect of this hotel.
If you want to continue living in this place, you have to abide by the rules of this place.
This is something other bases cannot do.
Thinking about this, Zhou Shan suddenly thought that Gu Qing seemed to be a loner, and couldn't help but remind him, "But although no one dares to do anything in the hotel, it won't necessarily be the case after going out. Someone will always do it." Trying to take advantage of the loopholes.”
Zhou Shan still doesn’t believe in human nature.
Although everyone in the hotel was safe and sound, he still noticed that some people had never gone out to fight zombies after entering the hotel. So how would they get the crystal cores after they ran out of them?
It's not that he judged a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart, but it's not an exaggeration to think too much under special circumstances.
Goodbye, Gu Qing is alone in human form. Even a person with superpowers may not be able to defeat him with four hands, so he still said a few more words.
"Yes, I know, thank you." Gu Qing said, then took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Yao, "Looking at how cute you are, I'll give you a piece of candy."
Zhou Yao was well educated by Zhou Shan and Mao Xiyue. Although she was a little greedy, she still looked at her parents.
Mao Xiyue hesitated, but Zhou Shan said to Zhou Yao: "Take it!"
"Thank you, sister." Zhou Yao took it and thanked her.
Gu Qing smiled, then turned around and went to the counter to queue up for dinner.
After Gu Qingyuan left, Mao Xiyue asked: "Is she a person with superpowers?"
"Yes, and she is also a very skilled superpower. She walked here from our community alone." Zhou Shan sighed. Thinking about it, Gu Qing had to face thousands of troops by himself!
"That's awesome, that's great! If only I could be that strong, I can help you then." Mao Xiyue said, and finally couldn't help but said, "How about I go out with you to kill zombies then! I didn’t feel comfortable asking my daughter to stay in the room before we came back, but now I have this condition.”
In a hotel room, you need a registered ID card to go upstairs, and even more so to enter the room, which is particularly safe.
Zhou Shan listened and subconsciously wanted to refuse. Suddenly he thought that it was the end of the world and he could not guarantee that he would be safe and sound. He also hoped that if he had an accident accidentally, his wife would be able to support him by himself. She and her daughter.
Who else would teach his wife more carefully than himself?
"Okay." Zhou Shan finally nodded.
The two looked at each other and smiled, full of tacit understanding.
People must learn to adapt to society.
**
On the other side, Gu Qing was also communicating with the system after listening to Zhou Shan's words.
"Has someone robbed someone outside the hotel?" Gu Qing asked.
[Not yet, but there may be a plan. I saw someone staying at the camp from some of the surveillance cameras. 】The system tells the truth.
"Then do you think it's better for me to enforce the law through fishing? Or just issue rules to prevent this kind of thing from happening?" Gu Qing continued to ask.
[Which one does the host think is more of a deterrent? 】The system replied seriously.
"Then it's better to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. There are no ready-made cases, and there will always be people who are ready to take action. It is much better to have a fight now when there are few people than to explode later when there are many people." Gu Qing said calmly.
She has clearly felt that the apocalyptic world is different from the previous world. With the arrival of the apocalypse and the increasingly serious situation, the original order and conscience have slowly collapsed.
She must make others realize that there is no order in other places, but there is order in Qingyun Hotel. People who do not obey order cannot gain a foothold in Qingyun Hotel.
Thinking about it, Gu Qing decided to observe the situation in the hotel these days and take a rest...
As soon as the idea of taking a break came up, the system immediately took advantage of every opportunity.
【Ding! The host behaves like a salty fish, and the salty fish value is +5. 】
Although running a hotel is quite fun, the system has not forgotten that it is a salted fish system, and the most important golden finger is the salted fish.
Gu Qing listened to the voice in his head, thinking about the system that Jin Jin Ye Ye could use to increase his salted fish value, and the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.
There is a worry-free system, and the days of doing tasks are also very refreshing!
**
As Zhou Shan reminded, as more and more people go out to lure zombies and kill them every day in the hotel, the crystal cores in the hands of people who have never dared to leave the hotel are beginning to be stretched, and they are starting to make moves.
"The crystal cores in our hands are almost at the bottom. If we don't have any more crystal cores, we may starve."
"Then let's go out and kill zombies?"
"You're stupid! Zombies are so dangerous. What if you get bitten by accident? Your life will be gone."
"If we don't kill zombies, where will we get the crystal core?"
"We didn't kill the zombies, others did!"
"You mean robbery? If there is robbery in Qingyun Hotel, you will be blacklisted."
"Who said it was going to be in the hotel!"
"You mean outside?"
"Yes, those who go out to kill zombies have big teams and small teams. We can't handle the big teams, but we can easily catch the small teams!"
"..."
"Is it really okay?" Some people still have doubts. He always feels that with a magical existence like Qingyun Hotel, no one will take advantage of this loophole. He is as timid as a mouse, but he is not really stupid.
"Moreover, many people say that with the hotel as a barrier, it is easy to kill zombies. Even many women can kill zombies and get crystal cores. There are even some children who help some teams dig crystal cores, and they can all get a small part of it. food."
"How many crystal cores can I get? I'm afraid I won't be able to eat enough in exchange for it. Anyway, you can do it or not. If not, I will do it myself." The man at the beginning said viciously.
The others listened and looked at each other, still feeling a little unreliable in their hearts, "Let's think about it again."
Let’s try to kill zombies! It seems like I haven’t heard of anyone dying these days.
If he was kicked out of Qingyun Hotel, he would really be dead!
Furthermore, if this person wants to do it, then let him do it first, just to see what happens to him. If it is feasible, it proves that this is a shortcut, and they will consider it later.
The first person looked at everyone's refusal, felt unwilling, and found someone else.
In the end, two people really followed this person and planned to rob him.
Then squatting really gave them a chance.
The system notified Gu Qing immediately.
After Gu Qing received the news, even though he had been prepared, he was still a little surprised that the accident would come so quickly.
I can only say one thing to people who came out so early to gain a sense of presence... They are really stupid and bad!
