WARNING: If you haven't eaten then go eat before you read because the food he makes will make your stomach growl XD

After thanking Company Commander Zhang and others, Zhan Yun and his team continued to walk to the gate.

When he came to the parking lot, he found that it was the people of team 12 who are in charge of the vehicles. When he saw Zhan Yun coming, he checked their temporary residence permit, returned the vehicles to them, and asked if they needed to go through the rental formalities of the parking lot.

“Hello, Team Leader Zhan. My name is Niu Dali. You can call me Da Niu. The leader asked me to stay and wait for you. You must have a lot of formalities to go through. It’s more convenient to have me with you.” Niu Dali is really like his name. He is tall and strong. His skin is a little black and yellow. He laughs with a kind of simple and honest feeling. “Do you need to go through the rental formalities for the parking lot? It’s very cheap for us to park here. It’s only a little work points a week, and there’s someone to watch it for you. It’s very safe.”

Niu Dali heard from Li Ming that Company Commander Zhang left a batch of materials for Zhan Yun and his team. There should be a lot of work points that were converted. He estimated that they would not exchange the car.

“En, we need it. Thank you, Daniel.”

“Haha, you’re welcome!” Niu Dali and Zhan Yun's team fought side by side and he admired their strength. Even without Li Ming’s special advice, he was willing to help them.

Niu Dali took Zhan Yun back to the registration office to go through the parking registration formalities. Zhan Yun rented for a month, and the registration personnel deducted four work points from the temporary residence card, and then gave him a parking card with the parking space sign. With this parking card, they can directly drive to the parking lot inside the base, and can freely enter and exit the base with this parking card.

But before going to park, Zhan Yun asked the others to take out the materials they put in the car. Everyone had a big bag of things, which were basically collected in city A. Zhan Yun asked them to take these things and exchange them for work points. He asked each of them to prepare a little work points. It would be more convenient for them to do anything in the future this way, while he then went to the parking spot.

Basically, everyone’s bags have been exchanged for about 100 points, even for Yu Dongdong. They now belong to the rich people’s level when they are put in the base.

After Zhan Yun parked and came back to meet them, he went to check in with them.

There is a special housing management center in the base. There are all kinds of houses to rent, but the work points are different.

Like the most common type of big multiple people room, the first three days of accommodation is free, and then one work point a day, which is probably a house rebuilt from a warehouse, it is separated into more than ten rooms, and built two toilets and a wash basin outside, and no more than this. Almost ten people live in a room, two rows of beds by the wall, not particularly crowded. There are two rows of long wooden tables and chairs in the middle, and a few wooden shelves, so there is no other furniture.

A little better is the high and low bed like the university dormitory building rooms. There is a room for eight people, with a small table and cabinet. Each floor has a toilet and a full bathroom, for two work points a day. Of course, there are also several four people rooms, for three work points a day.

What’s better is the Old Public House. The old public house is a very common six story house before the apocalypse. It’s mainly a small house, generally one bedroom, one hall or two bedrooms, one hall. Most of the decoration is relatively old, but it’s better for having furniture, and it’s an independent space. Such houses are charged by set. The charge for a house varies from eight to twelve work points a day. The rent is paid in three days. Three days’ rent is required for check-in, so there are few people that look for them.

A little better decorated is the small high-rise buildings. There are also elevators and more space. The rent is at least 15 work points a day. But now the power of the base is generated by generators, and the power supply is a little tight, so the elevators of small high-rise buildings are closed, and the upper and lower floors need to climb stairs.

The best one is probably the hotel apartment. The room is large and well decorated. It’s really expensive. There is a small generator inside. If someone checks in, the generator can supply power in different periods of time, but it needs 25 work points a day, and one month’s rent must be paid in advance.

“Can you show us the small high-rise buildings and hotel apartments?” After listening to the introduction, Zhan Yun decides to go to see the places first. He wants an independent space. The old public housing is too dilapidated. The small high-rise building is better. There are also hotel apartments which he is more interested in.

“Of course!” As soon as the administrator of the housing management center heard that these people were not poor in money, and there was Niu Dali with them, it was estimated that there was still some background, so he immediately took the key to guide them.

The small high-rise building is near the law enforcement brigade. It seems that the security will be better. It’s also close to the parking lot. At present, there are no people living in the small high-rise building. They can choose any room they like. But the location of the hotel apartment is almost in the middle of the base. People come and go nearby. It will be more eye-catching to live there.

So in the end, Zhan Yun chose to rent a small high-rise apartment with the three apartments being on one floor. He simply rented the whole fifth floor, and asked the administrator for the key of the fifth floor’s stairway security door, so that no one could come to their floor except their team members.

Because Zhan Yun's rent is very costly, the administrator also gave them a preferential price. The three apartments are 40 work points a day. If they pay the rent for one month directly, they will only charge them 1000 work points and give them two flashlights.

Zhan Yun paid the work points and got the key of the room and the security door smoothly. The administrator registered them after returning to his desk.

Niu Dali pointed out the location of the canteen to them, and told them that they could go to eat directly with the temporary residence permit. Anyway, the first three days were all free. Of course, the meals in the canteen can only be to fill you up, and there is no guarantee about the taste being good. In the future, if they want to cook by themselves, they can do what they usually did. There should be some pots and pans left in the kitchen before the apocalypse. The management center can supply them gas stoves and gas tanks in exchange for their work points.

The supply of drinking water in the southern base is quite sufficient. Two soldiers who have awakened to the power of water system can release a lot of water, so when everyone goes to the canteen for dinner, they can also get free drinking water.

Thanks to Niu Dali, Zhan Yun and his team have finally rented their apartments. The rooms of this floor selected by Zhan Yun are relatively new and will be more comfortable to live in.

When the others left, Zhan Yun asked Su Ruizhe to open the walls between the three apartments with the vines from the inside into two arches, and the extra doors of the apartment that would allow you in and out was closed.

Then, Su Ruizhe took out the small diesel generator from the space, connected several tow-boards, turned on the lights in the room, and easily lit up the rooms. At last, he didn’t have to work in the dark. Then he took out the bedding. The sheets and bedding left by the previous people were moldy and totally not usable. Then everyone started to clean up the room together.

When they are finished, it’s almost dawn, and the temperature outside begins to rise slowly, so they are not very happy to go out for dinner. Anyway, there is no one here, and no one will know about their cooking. So Su Ruizhe just cooks a few home-made dishes in great quantity. Wu Jing and Zhang Shuoliang are quietly giving him a hand.

Zhan Yun takes the others to clear the living room, places the tables of the two rooms, and brings ten chairs.

Su Ruizhe made fried pork slices with zucchini, hot and sour potato shreds, soy-braised pork, scrambled eggs with tomato, bacon and winter melon soup, as well as a large pot of white rice, and for XiaoHei he gave him his favorite canned fish.

When the meal came out, everyone was almost ready to drool on the spot.

Although there are only four dishes and one soup, the quantity of the dishes is enough. Su Ruizhe almost always takes the biggest plate and everything is still enough for the ten people. These days, they are all busy on the road. They haven’t had a good meal at all. Now they eat such delicious and fresh food, and were almost happy enough to shed tears.

“God! You are really lucky! I want such gold thighs, too! ” Cheng Qi holds the bowl and does not lift his head. He envies, envies and hates.

“Yes! Xiao Zhe, would you like to have a try with your sister? This sister is more gentle than that tough bad guy! ” Cheng Jiao is also afraid that the world is not disorderly enough and sends a wink Su Ruizhe.

Zhan Yun sneered and secretly activated his ability. Their bodies were as heavy as lead. They couldn’t even lift their hands, let alone eat.

“God! How can you do that? “

“Shameless!”

The brother and sister bitterly fight against Zhan Yun.

However, Zhan Yun didn’t take care of them at all. Instead, he calmly picked a dish with his chopsticks of braised pork for Su Ruizhe. “Eat more.”

The others laughed and took the opportunity to speed up their chopsticks.

“Zhan Ge! Zhan Ge! We know we were wrong!” Seeing the table full of delicious food become less and less from the crowd, the brother and sister are almost crying. If it wasn’t that I couldn’t move, I’d like to kneel down to Zhan Yun and beg for mercy. In front of the delicious food, the dignity and other things will be temporarily put aside.

Zhan Yun let the two brother and sister wail for a while, and then untied their prison. At this time, the two clowns dare not make a mistake, and they are obedient while they eat.

All the people were full of food and drink. They were satisfied and didn’t want to move. Only Yu Dongdong and Xiao Hei were full of energy. The two little guys lay on the windowsill and looked out curiously together.

Obviously, the sun has risen and the temperature has become hot. But in the direction of the canteen, there are still an endless stream of people coming in and out. Some people are holding umbrellas, some people are walking along the shadow of the building, but they are still sweating, and their skin is a little red.

There are so many people who can’t bear to go get the free breakfast in the morning. At noon, who knows how many people would like to eat out in the hot sun?

The author has something to say:

[Little Theater On The Street]

Zhan Xiaoyun: We have entered the base now. It’s different from the past. We need to keep a low profile!

Su Xiaozhe: I know, so what are we going to do?

Zhan Xiaoyun: Oh, so let’s move bricks!

Zheng Jiahe:???

Zhan Xiaoyun: Comrade Zheng! It’s time for the organization to need you! It’s a small idea to support our group with your ability. (＾＿＾)

Zheng Jiahe: Ah? Ah! Of course! I’m so tired of it!

Zhan Xiaoyun: mm-hmm! Come on! The Incredible Hulk!

Zheng Jiahe: I used to be a hulk who could tear the zombie by hand, smash the door in front of me, and smash the watermelon and corn in the back…Later I entered the base, and I became a great builder! No, I’m going to move the bricks!

I regretted translating this before eating because the end made me almost drool and my stomach kept growling so I tried to not make you guys suffer like that by leaving a warning at the beginning! Hope you listened XD
