Reborn In the Apocalypse: My Hotel Has Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 154

"You! Don’t talk nonsense! My son is such a well-behaved person. You’re slandering him!"

The middle-aged woman glared fiercely at Chu Jiangyue, her gaze as if she wanted to eat Chu Jiangyue’s flesh, drink Chu Jiangyue’s blood.

"Whether I’m talking nonsense or not doesn’t matter. What’s important is... you’d better pray that your son comes back safely."

Chu Jiangyue no longer paid attention to her and continued interviewing the people behind.

Because Wang Qi was directly exposed by Chu Jiangyue and then escorted out of the Jianglin Hotel, many who still held onto a glimmer of hope silently stepped out of the interview queue.

Although they very much wanted a stable job, if lying would get them thrown out of the hotel, they would rather maintain the status quo.

At this moment, a girl wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans came over.

"Hello, Boss Chu! My name is Jiang Meng. Before the apocalypse, I worked as a nurse in the hospital and studied nursing in college."

Chu Jiangyue nodded slightly; Jiang Meng indeed wasn’t lying.

After asking a few more questions, which Jiang Meng answered methodically, Chu Jiangyue’s impression of her rose immediately. She made a note beside Jiang Meng’s name and let her leave.

After all, there were still people waiting in line for interviews. She couldn’t give a result on the spot.

After Jiang Meng, Chu Jiangyue interviewed several more people but none gave her as good a feeling as Jiang Meng did, nearly solidifying the nurse position for Jiang Meng in her mind.

"Next!"

"Good morning, Boss Chu!"

Hearing a somewhat familiar voice, Chu Jiangyue looked up unexpectedly to see the doctor who helped treat Fang Chengwu’s wound yesterday — Ye Jinglin.

"Doctor Ye! You’re here for the interview, too?"

Chu Jiangyue didn’t expect Ye Jinglin to show up.

Though working at a clinic provided a stable monthly income, compared to those who venture out to fight zombies and collect resources, this income was relatively meager, just enough to ensure basic sustenance.

Ye Jinglin nodded: "I’m an ordinary person; searching for resources outside is too dangerous.

But living in Jianglin Hotel without Crystal Core is impossible. Having this job means I don’t need to go outside anymore."

Ye Jinglin had a very clear understanding of his capabilities.

His life before was smooth sailing, but he hadn’t expected the apocalypse to descend suddenly.

He managed to survive till now mainly because of his medical skills; in the apocalypse, injuries from fights are commonplace.

However, compared to being a temporary physician for the Superpower Team, Ye Jinglin preferred having a stable job.

"Doctor Ye’s expertise is something I trust very much, but can you still tell me what department you mainly worked in before the apocalypse?"

Ye Jinglin nodded; these things were something he ought to explain.

"Before the apocalypse, I primarily worked in cardiothoracic surgery, and I also handled emergencies..."

As Ye Jinglin summarized his previous work, Chu Jiangyue increasingly felt that Ye Jinglin was a talent.

At least she now had suitable candidates for both doctor and nurse positions, relieving some of the pressure when conducting upcoming interviews.

Due to Chu Jiangyue’s decisive actions at the start by picking out and dealing with some individuals, those who didn’t meet the requirements were mostly weeded out, so she didn’t have too many people to interview.

After interviewing everyone, Chu Jiangyue closed her eyes and reviewed things in her mind.

Finally, after various selections, she chose Ye Jinglin and Jiang Meng for the doctor and nurse positions respectively.

Having made her decision, Chu Jiangyue searched for Ye Jinglin and Jiang Meng in the guest roster and sent them respective interview pass notifications.

[Mission release: Please ensure the shopping street’s store rental reaches 80% (0/80); mission reward: to be unlocked]

Just after sending out the interview approval notices for the clinic, Chu Jiangyue received a new mission.

Seeing the content of this new task, Chu Jiangyue found herself troubled again.

Her store rental announcement had been out for quite a while, yet no one had come to inquire. Chu Jiangyue felt that this task might drag on for some time.

While Chu Jiangyue was sighing in distress, Jin Chuyu entered the office hall with members of her Superpower Team.

Seeing Chu Jiangyue there, Jin Chuyu headed straight toward her.

"Boss Chu, we’d like to rent a store; we’re unsure about the price..."

Whenever they went out, they would find things they didn’t need themselves.

Using these items for top-ups wasn’t as good as using Crystal Core directly, but throwing them away seemed wasteful. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

They often piled up several items, and now there were many things accumulated which were taking up space.

Now that stores were available for rent, after some deliberation, they planned to start a shop and test the waters.

If all went well, they intended to discuss with Yun Zijin.

Upon hearing that they were here to rent a store, Chu Jiangyue’s eyes lit up.

"Renting a store? Great, great! Here’s a scaled-down map, each store location is precisely marked. The three grayed-out spots are my own stores.

You’re the first ones to rent a store. The price is over here; feel free to take a look."

Chu Jiangyue deftly opened a virtual screen for Jin Chuyu and her team to view.

Jin Chuyu zoomed in and out several times on the virtual screen before settling on the shop next to the clinic.

"Are you sure? The monthly rent for this shop isn’t cheap."

Indeed, stores were rented on a monthly basis, with a minimum rental duration of six months.

"No problem, we can afford this rent."

The store they chose had a monthly rent of 1 Gold Coin, mainly for its prime location at the entrance of the shopping street, where foot traffic was guaranteed.

"Alright, the lease starts at six months; how long are you planning to rent?"

Renting stores seemed far more lucrative than renting rooms.

"Let’s rent for six months first. If we need an extension, we’ll return then."

As customers, they are kings, and Chu Jiangyue naturally would abide by whatever they said.

"Alright, our hotel has no deposit policy, but on this date each month, the hotel automatically deducts rent, so you need to ensure your account has sufficient balance.

For you five, one month means 1 Gold Coin; it deducts 20 silver coins per person each month. Is that okay?"

"This store rents for 1 Gold Coin per month, with multiple people co-investing, the rent is split equally among them. If anyone is interested, they can inquire with Boss Chu."

Jin Churan passionately and patiently answered various questions hotel guests raised.

"1 Gold Coin! Based on the currency conversion of Gold, silver, and copper coins, that’s equivalent to ten thousand copper coins—so expensive!"

"It’s not really expensive; their Superpower Team has 5 people, splitting the cost means each pays 20 silver coins a month.

Anyone with decent skills could easily kill 20 zombies a day."

Thinking about how hunting zombies daily could earn the rent, it turns out not to be so pricey.

But this affordability pertains only to some individuals.

Jin Chuyu took out her Identity Card from her pocket and swiped it over the sensor area at the shop’s entrance.

In the next instant, the shop door made a "click" sound and opened.
