【008】Activities of bringing in the new with the old
The upgrade of the hotel, coupled with the arrival of a new group of people, caused the number of crystal cores in the hotel to increase explosively. After Gu Qing did not need to kill zombies to obtain the crystal cores to run the hotel, Gu Qing simply "rested".
At this time, Gu Qing was lying down in the room, and most of the survivors had formed teams to hunt zombies from near or far.
Under such circumstances, the system naturally seizes the opportunity.
【Ding! If the host behaves like a salty fish, the salty fish value will be +1. 】
【Ding! If the host behaves like a salty fish, the salty fish value will be +1. 】
【……】
As soon as the addition was completed, Gu Qing got up from the bed without any scruples, came to the window, and looked at the control panel of the hotel system. He saw that the number of people in the hotel seemed to have increased a lot, but it was just before the next upgrade. 1,000 people is still some way off.
Logically speaking, the surviving population of this city will be at least several hundred thousand. Where have these people gone?
"Are you still advertising?" Gu Qing asked.
Now the environment in Qingyun Hotel has stabilized.
With ample food, water, a safe environment, and strict rules and regulations, troubles are less likely to occur, so subsequent development plans require more and more people.
Gu Qing has already considered the next step of absorbing more people to upgrade the hotel to accommodate more people.
[It is still only in this area. The hotel level is too low, and the range of its customer sources is only that wide. 】
Gu Qing listened, paused, then looked under the window and outside the hotel, calmly attracting zombies to the survivors outside the hotel.
When I first entered the hotel, I was still trembling with fear when facing zombies one after another. I wished I could stay as far away as possible, but now, I wish I had as many zombies in front of me as possible.
Because if they kill more zombies and have more crystal nuclei, they can eat, drink and sleep well in the hotel. This is such a rare thing in the apocalyptic world.
Under such temptation, not only superpowers, but also ordinary people are constantly improving their skills and physical fitness.
Seeing this, Gu Qing had an idea.
"999, how about we do an event?"
【what activity? 】
"Hotel people lead promotion activities. If existing hotel guests can bring non-hotel guests from outside and successfully spend money in the hotel, then the person who brought the tourists can obtain the hotel's contribution value, contribution value and core value. Equivalently, it can be exchanged for hotel products, including food and rooms." Gu Qing said directly.
She would like to reward the crystal core, but the situation does not allow it! Let’s consume the future “crystal core” of Qingyun Hotel!
Thinking of this, I suddenly thought of what I heard that day about a team of superpowers carrying supplies to sell in the hotel, and added another sentence.
"The right to put products on the shelves of the merchandise sales cabinet is also given to travelers. The hotel purchases the products at a price 20% lower than the market price. Whether to sell them to the hotel depends on personal wishes."
Tents and the like are also available in the hotel mall, and their functions are much better than the existing ones, but they require a lot of crystal cores, which is wasted if used in the hotel.
It’s better to use the materials that can be used in this world first, and let’s talk about the advanced ones that are needed in the future!
[Host, you are a white wolf with empty gloves! 】
"No?" Gu Qing raised an eyebrow and asked. Contribution value can only be the first step. With these data, she can choose from people with high contribution value when she wants to hire people later. Of course, this is not planned to be announced to the outside world. Yes, what she wants to see is people's choices without knowing these things.
Among those with high contribution value at that time.
If you do it in anticipation of the contribution value, you are a smart person.
If you do something unexpectedly, it means you are a kind person.
If it is none of the above, you are just doing it to gain contribution points, and you can do it so well in the end, it means you are a capable person.
She needs all three types of people.
【OK! I'll help you get it right away. ] The 999 system quickly said that if it weren't for it, the host would probably not take on this difficult task again. Please help as much as you can.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you." After Gu Qing finished speaking, he paused and added, "I'll figure it out this way..."
【Do the math! 】
【Ding! If the host behaves like a salty fish, the salty fish value will be +2. 】
**
At this time, in the lobby of Qingyun Hotel.
Many people come back from killing zombies outside. The first thing they do is not go to eat. Instead, they run to the exchange machine and deposit the zombie crystal cores they worked so hard to kill into their passenger identity cards.
[Passenger’s name: Chu Heping]
[Number of crystal nuclei: 62]
[Rent a room: No]
Looking at the number of crystal nuclei he had, the passenger turned around with satisfaction and went to the restaurant to prepare for dinner. He met his companion on the way, and they went together arm in arm with an extremely relaxed expression.
Being able to see someone you know is a blessing.
"How many crystal nuclei have you saved?" his companion asked Chu Heping, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
Although Chu Heping is an ordinary person, he was a fitness instructor before the end of the world. He has good skills and physical strength, so he has gained a lot from fighting zombies.
"Not many, 62." Chu Heping didn't hide it too much. After all, everyone knows the rules of the hotel now. As long as he doesn't seek death, he will blatantly care about other people's things.
"That's a lot. You've just arrived and you've already had so much. It's too hard. Then can't you rent a room?"
"No, I don't have this plan now. I still have too few crystal cores in my hand. I'm afraid that the zombies will become more and more powerful in the future and I won't be able to fight as many. I'll save some now." Chu Heping said rationally, before going out. When it comes to killing zombies, he can feel the difference between people with powers and ordinary people.
The powers of superpowers become stronger the more they are used. They can kill more and more zombies, but ordinary people can kill less and less. The most important reason is that the zombies are becoming more powerful.
He met a zombie that was always very powerful today, and was almost injured by him. When he finally dug out the crystal core, he found that the color of the crystal core was much darker.
He felt that maybe when the zombie was finished evolving, the color of the crystal core would completely change.
"That's right. There's no need to pursue enjoyment anyway. People who rent rooms are basically people with superpowers. The number of crystal nuclei in their hands is really the most."
Chu Heping nodded, his expression indifferent. The power of superpowers is indeed enviable, but it is not something that can only be obtained by envy. He still works hard to live his own life.
In a doomsday situation, it is rare for them to live such a life.
Immediately afterwards, the two ordered a set meal respectively.
The set meal was very simple, just one dish, one soup and one rice. The style was also simple, but they still ate it with gusto.
It was also when they were eating that they suddenly saw someone in the restaurant quickly finishing their meal and leaving after hearing what their companion said.
"What's going on here?"
Just when someone was wondering, someone spoke up.
"There is a new announcement from the hotel!"
Hearing this, Chu Heping couldn't sit still. He hurriedly finished his meal and returned to the hall.
The hall was also very lively at this time, and everyone's eyes were turned to the announcement screen that suddenly appeared in the hall.
There was obviously no hotel before, but suddenly one appeared with three new notices on it.
They care more about the content on it than the announcement screen.
[Notice 1: Enable hotel contribution value. The contribution value is stored in the passenger identity card, which is equivalent to the crystal core and can be accessed in the hotel. 】
[Notice 2: The passenger product shelf function is enabled. Passengers can put various materials on the product sales counter. The hotel will settle the contribution value to the passenger's identity card. The price of the materials is mainly displayed in the product sales counter. 】
[Notice 3: The old-to-new activity is launched. Existing travelers recommend new travelers to Qingyun Hotel, and the new travelers register in the hotel and will receive 1 contribution point. 】
Three notifications were scrolling on the announcement screen.
After everyone read it, their expressions were a little strange.
It was really beyond their expectations.
The image of Qingyun Hotel in their minds has always been high-end, but these three notices suddenly made the hotel become more down-to-earth, especially with the old bringing in the new.
Hearing such an activity in the last days is really... I don’t know what words to use to describe it.
"Maybe the hotel just wants us to rescue more survivors."
"However, it is very difficult for us to maintain our own lives. Where can we find the ability to rescue other survivors? We will not be able to exchange lives for lives, and we will only get a reward of 1 contribution point. It is not worth it. If we have that time, it is better to do more Kill some zombies."
"That makes sense, but I always feel that the hotel won't do this event in vain."
"No matter what the purpose of the hotel is, these tasks are optional. It's up to us whether we do them or not. I think it's a good choice to give your extra supplies to the hotel to sell them. Even if you don't have any extra, go out and kill zombies. Collecting more supplies during the trip can also bring in more income.”
"Yes."
"I just don't know what the price the hotel is offering?"
"It shouldn't trick us."
"..."
The discussion at the scene continued. Chu Heping looked at several notices and his mood was ups and downs.
"What do you think?" his companion asked Chu Heping.
"I don't know, but if you can, just do it! I don't think there will be any harm." Chu Heping said.
"Yes, I think so too." A voice suddenly sounded right after Chu Heping.
Chu Heping looked around and recognized him immediately. He was the leader of the convoy that rescued their team that day.
He has always been very lucky. Fortunately, he walked out of his house that day and met a team. He followed this team to the safety base, and then met another convoy and came here. Otherwise, he would not know where he would be suffering now. !
"Brother Zhou." Chu Heping called politely.
"you know me?"
"I was in the team that was rescued by you that day." Chu Heping explained.
"The main purpose is not to save you." Zhou Shan said directly, saving people is incidental, killing zombies is the main thing.
"To me, it's a fact that you saved us." Chu Heping said calmly.
Zhou Shan did not dwell on this issue anymore and continued: "How are you doing in the hotel now?"
“It’s such a good place, I got used to it very quickly.”
"Do you have a fixed team?" Zhou Shan continued to ask.
Chu Heping was stunned for a moment, what do you mean?
Zhou Shan smiled and said, "I have noticed you in the past few days. You are very good at killing zombies. I feel that you meet my criteria for choosing a companion, so I want to invite you to join my team."
No matter what, it is definitely a good idea to have such an idea.
Zhou Shan had previously declined to be the leader of a team of ordinary people in the community, not because he didn't want to lead the team, but because he couldn't trust that team wholeheartedly. He wanted to carefully select some partners to work together.
This idea has become more and more clear these days.
He knew very well that if he wanted to survive better in the hotel, forming a team was the best way.
People with superpowers simply look down on ordinary people like them, so what he can find are powerful ordinary people.
After Chu Heping was stunned, he nodded quickly and said: "I do."
Chu Heping's companions looked on with envy, and Zhou Shan also knew that they were a group of survivors who came earlier and had already taken root in the hotel. The casualties among his team that went out every day were minimal.
Chu Heping's ability to climb such a team is his ability.
Knowing that the person must have a deeper understanding, he left wisely.
After he left, Chu Heping couldn't help but said: "Why did you choose me?"
There are so many great ordinary people.
It’s probably what you just said!
Chu Heping was stunned, just do it if you have the ability, right?
"I just think that the purpose of the hotel is here. It is not forceful, it just wants us to do it, and this is good for the hotel and good for us, and this is something that not everyone can think of. What I want is a like-minded partner." Zhou Shan said seriously.
"No matter why you chose me, since we have become partners, I will definitely work hard." Chu Heping also replied seriously.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
In the hotel, there were many people who, like Zhou Shan, saw that there was something complicated behind this incident, and they silently added rescuing survivors and collecting supplies to their daily tasks.
On the same day, there were already teams heading towards further goals.
And they don't know that when they go, they will usher in new development of the hotel, and they will ultimately benefit.
