Chapter 636: Chapter 262: Zhuang Shuyuan’s Plan_2
Zhuang Shuyuan’s expression remained calm; she didn’t get angry over it or anything.
She had already come to terms with it—without Wu Meng, it was destined to be difficult for her to gather that initial group of people again.
But compared to going to the military base, staying here still offered her hope.
That hope was the owner of this shelter, Liang Yuan!
She keenly noticed that Liang Yuan looked at her differently.
Several times when Liang Yuan went to see Song Wen, she actively approached him, trying to get close to Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan did not reject her advances, which made her ecstatic.
Not rejecting her, what did that indicate?
It indicated that she, Zhuang Shuyuan, had hope!
This Mr. Liang might also have some thoughts about her!
This wasn’t her being confident; it was based on her understanding of men.
She was well aware of her advantages—her good looks, her great figure, and most importantly, her unparalleled noble aura.
Any man in a high position would try to find ways to subdue her, to break her nobility.
She knew these bastards too well.
Zhuang Shuyuan said lightly, "Instead of worrying about this, you might as well think about what you should buy when the shopping center opens."
Upon hearing this, Gao Jie immediately said, "I heard that many rare items are up for sale at the shopping center this time. I wonder if there will be weapons. I’m really fond of that [Sharp] series of weapons blessed by Mr. Yang, but there’s never been a chance to buy them."
Bai Zhirui couldn’t help but say, "Sister Gao, why do you need cold weapons? Your Spiritual Illusion Technique is so powerful, do you even need close combat weapons?"
Gao Jie rolled her eyes at her and said, "You just don’t get it, being a healer and all. Spiritual Illusion Techniques can only trap enemies, not kill them."
"What if the opponent has layer defense and a powerful Defense Ability? What good is my Spiritual Illusion Technique in trapping them? Wouldn’t I need a handy weapon to complement my illusion?"
Bai Zhirui immediately made an ’oh’ sound. Being a Superpower User specialized in healing, she was definitely not adept at combat.
Gao Jie asked, "What about you, Nai Bai? What do you plan to buy?"
Bai Zhirui scratched her head, "I heard that Captain Wang An of the patrol team has come up with a way to combine his superpower with food. He’s going to open a pastry shop that can produce food supplements to treat injuries. I plan to check it out and buy some to study."
"You know, my Nutrition Express also counts as food, but it’s a bit too simple. I plan to learn from him. Maybe I can open my own healing snack shop in the future."
Gao Jie couldn’t help but exclaim, "That’s a great idea! Wow, if you open a shop in the future, it’ll definitely sell well. There aren’t many healers in the patrol team."
"Your kind of product will surely be in demand. Nai Bai, if you open a shop, you must invite me and Sister Zhuang to invest."
Bai Zhirui chuckled sheepishly, then turned to Zhuang Shuyuan and couldn’t help but ask, "Sister Yuan, what about you? What do you want to buy?"
Zhuang Shuyuan gave Bai Zhirui an appreciative look. Bai Zhirui’s idea suggested that she could thrive well in the Yangshan Shelter in the future.
Upon hearing Bai Zhirui’s question, Zhuang Shuyuan laughed, "You guys, always thinking about opening a shop. Have you even inquired about how many points it costs to rent a shop in the shopping center?"
The two immediately froze, then couldn’t help but shake their heads.
Bai Zhirui quickly asked, "Sister Zhuang, do you know?"
Zhuang Shuyuan’s lips curled up as she said, "I did some inquiries. Currently, most stores in the shopping center are owned by Mr. Liang himself. However, if we want to rent, it wouldn’t be too difficult."
"First of all, we need to endure this month’s service term."
"Mr. Liang will reorganize us into different teams and departments at that time."
"As women and Superpower Users, we’ll have some privileges. We can choose not to go on field duties and instead do logistical work within the shelter."
"Opening a store is one way, but you need to have enough points to rent a shop."
"Sister Zhuang, how many points exactly?" Gao Jie, being impatient, asked immediately.
Zhuang Shuyuan raised her hand, extending one finger.
"1,000 Points?"
Zhuang Shuyuan immediately gave her a sideways glance, "You could catch a few hundred fish and get 1,000 Points. How could it be that cheap?"
"What? Does it cost 10,000 Points?" Gao Jie instantly gaped, asking in shock.
Zhuang Shuyuan said, "Yeah, 10,000 Points, and that’s the monthly rent."
"Phew, that’s a lot of points. How long would it take to save up? And paying every month, how could we ever gather that much?" Gao Jie couldn’t help but feel frustrated.
Zhuang Shuyuan found it quite exasperating, "Gao Jie, you’re so short-sighted. 10,000 Points is a lot? Let me tell you, it’s only this cheap because the shelter still has few people. Don’t you think the rent will only keep rising over time?"
"What? It’ll go up even more? Who on earth could have that many points? Even those elderly folks from the Fire Bamboo Forest who follow Mr. Liang couldn’t come up with that many points all at once, could they?"
Gao Jie couldn’t hold back, given she understood that the points system at the Yangshan Shelter had just implemented this month. Before that, there was no such system at all.
So who could amass 10,000 Points in just a month?
Zhuang Shuyuan shook her head slightly, "You haven’t done business, have you? If you really get into business, you’ll understand how quickly money can come in."
