Chapter 75 – Giving Out Free Shaved Ice
After the first batch of fruits were collected, the robot looked small but very strong. It found a cart from somewhere and transported the fruits to the restaurant’s kitchen in baskets of ten.
The polluters who saw the fruits along the way were attracted to it. They gathered together with anticipation in their eyes: “Boss, are you selling fruit?”
If it were in the past, looking at so many normal-shaped fruits, they would probably suspect that these were just models. After all, every fruit grown in the back mountain was brightly colored, beautiful, and full in shape, completely different from the various deformed fruits after the apocalypse.
But this is the Hotel, and the polluters had come to accept that what was happening inside was impossible.
One of the polluters, whose belly had grown distorted and large, wiped the suspicious liquid from the corner of his mouth and said, “I haven’t eaten an apple in five years.”
”Boss, please sell it to me. I’ll pay any price!”
Wen Bei set up a small stall in the open space at the entrance of the restaurant and put the fruits on it.
He planned to sell part of it first, and then give half of it to the convoy outside the Hotel, so that they could can the fruits and then send them to the base for sale.
According to their previous regulations, half of the crystals obtained from the sale must be divided back to the Hotel.
Therefore, Wen Bei is not worried at all about not making money from canning fruits.
Seeing the stalls piled high with fruits, all the polluters consciously lined up.
At the beginning, some people had an argument just because they wanted to stand in the front. If violence was not allowed in the hotel, they would have even fought each other. The scene was a bit chaotic for a while.
Qiu Tin stood beside Wen Bei with a lack of interest, watching him arrange the fruits, with no intention of stopping him at all.
If they were all dead in front of him now, perhaps he would still be interested in raising his eyelids to take a look.
Fortunately, the chaos was stopped in time by Su Wu who had appeared.
He did nothing but stood aside with a broom in his hand, looking at the crowd with his big watery eyes.
Everyone’s hair stood on end, and they immediately became respectful and amiable. The few people who were arguing just now were now being courteous, as if they wanted to help each other queue up and pay the bill.
Su Wu had been working in the Hotel for several days. As a cleaning staff of the Hotel, his attitude towards his cleaning job was not about dealing with the waste, but to deal with the people who created the garbage.
At first, some people thought that he was small and not to be feared, until more and more polluters who littered in the Hotel were caught and beaten by him, and no one dared to do it again.
Although violence was not allowed inside the Hotel, it wais different outside the Hotel.
Anyone who was dragged out by Su Wu, even if he was a power-type polluter, would be as powerless to resist as a chick.
Anyone who saw a slender boy who is only about 1.68 meters tall and looked like an angel, swearing while pinning a 2-meter-tall, muscular and burly man to the ground and punching him would be horrified.
One could only dream of this strange scene in the middle of the night.
Therefore, every traveler who came to the Hotel to spend money would consciously throw their garbage into the self-cleaning trash cans, and even the most rude and uncultured polluters would always pay attention to the hygiene issues of the Hotel.
Even when checking out, one was supposed to take away the extra garbage.
Su Wu was very satisfied with this. He became free because of it, and when he saw that Wen Bei needed help, he came over immediately.
The effect is immediate.
The line was finally in shape, and Wen Bei looked at the first lucky person standing in front of his stall: “Hello, apples and pears are 100 crystals each, and peaches are 125 crystals each. Each person is limited to three.”
When they heard that there was a purchase restriction, the people in the front line showed disappointment, while those in the back line showed joy.
”I’ll buy it! I’ll buy three apples!”
”I’ll have one of each kind of fruit!”
The price was still affordable for those polluters who accepted missions in contaminated areas and lived on the edge of a knife.
Some polluters had previously spent all their crystals on other expenses in the Hotel, so they chose to borrow from their fellow travelers.
The person traveling with another person was a little clever: “I can lend it to you, but you have to give me your share. You buy two and you will give me the other one.”
Each person could only buy three, and using this method you can get one extra.
Things like this kept happening in the queues, and Wen Bei didn’t intend to get involved as long as it wasn’t too excessive.
He was selling fruits seriously, putting the fruits selected by customers into bags, and looked a little obedient with his eyes lowered.
Su Wu approached and looked at it eagerly, with the fox ears on his head drooping down: “Can I eat it?”
Wen Bei directly handed him a peach.
Su Wu looked at Qiu Tin proudly and took a big bite of the peach as if to show off.
This is the peach that the boss handed to me personally!
Oh.
Qiu Tin raised the corner of his mouth with a hint of sarcasm and looked at him, then called out softly.
Hearing his name, Wen Bei subconsciously turned his head to look at the man: “Hmm?”
Then suddenly an apple was pressed against his lips.
It was an apple that had been peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces.
Wen Bei ate it and blinked: “Thank you.”
The cut fruit was very convenient to eat, not to mention that someone would even hand it to his mouth.
So Wen Bei accepted food from Qiu Tin while selling fruits. There was an indescribable tacit understanding between the two.
Su Wu, who was standing aside, seemed out of place.
Su Wu stared at Qiu Tin in a daze, having never expected that there would be such a trick.
In comparison, one was the person who carefully cut the fruits, and the other was himself who wasted time asking for the fruits. He realized that in terms of scheming, he was still completely defeated.
Shocked, Su Wu wiped away his non-existent tears and left in grief and anger.
Wen Bei noticed from the corner of his eye: “Why did he leave?”
Qiu Tin: “Maybe he’s unhappy because he doesn’t like eating peaches.”
He also did not forget to grope for a white fox in the dark.
Wen Bei tilted his head in confusion, but didn’t take it too seriously.
The first person who bought the fruit couldn’t wait to eat it, and many people were staring at him.
Seeing him take his first bite of the pear, everyone looked expectant: “Is it delicious? Does it taste like the pears before the end of the world?”
The man didn’t say anything and just stood there in a daze.
Others were even more anxious: “Is it delicious?!”
“Is it bitter too?”
”I once ate a deformed pear that tastes like cement!”
Finally, under everyone’s nervous gaze, the man moved. He swallowed the pear in his mouth in big gulps, and without saying anything, he immediately took the second and third bites…
Not only did he not peel the pear, he even ate the core of the pear cleanly.
He licked his fingers, his eyes sparkling with tears: “So, so delicious!”
After five whole years, he was able to eat normal and delicious fruit again!
Now everyone in the queue felt relieved, and the line suddenly became much longer.
With this momentum, the fruits on the stall were sold out quickly, and Wen Bei even left some to sell later.
He first asked Ji Mingyuan to send the excess fruits to the canning factory. As he was watching them, he suddenly saw a polluter stumbling in.
He was sweating and his eyes were tired. “Excuse me, is this a hotel?”
Just as Wen Bei was about to nod, he suddenly fainted.
The Rabbit Butler appeared in time and shook his beard unhappily: “Useless human.”
After saying that, it dragged the man into the hall and made him lie on the guest sofa in the hall.
This scene seemed familiar, Wen Bei frowned: “What’s wrong with him?”
The Rabbit Butler felt his pulse, then pried open his eyelids and took a look: “He’s fine, he just fainted from heatstroke.”
”Heatstroke?” Wen Bei was surprised.
Polluters don’t get heat stroke easily.
A polluter who had just finished eating some fruit came over to join in the fun: “It’s been very hot outside recently. Judging from his appearance, he must have just been through a fierce battle, and it’s been too long since he had any water, plus he did some intense exercise.”
Wen Bei looked at the bright sunshine outside and realized that he had been staying in the Hotel and not going out recently because of the fruit trees, so he didn’t realize that the weather outside had become bad again.
The polluter continued, “You don’t know, ever since that inexplicable acid rainfall that day, the temperature has been rising. Now the temperature outside is almost 50 degrees.”
Wen Bei was stunned for a moment, and once again realized the unpredictability of the end of the world.
No wonder there were fewer guests in the Hotel Recently.
Traveling in such hot weather is as likely to cause just as many accidents as traveling in extremely cold weather.
Wen Bei thought about it and decided to do something.
He searched in the system mall and successfully bought an ice shaver.
With the addition of fruit to a shaved ice machine, he could make delicious, cold shaved ice.
As for the missing important raw material, ice, a solution was soon found from an ice polluter.
When the polluter heard that there was free shaved ice, he froze a large bucket of water without saying a word.
So a new stall was set up next to the fruit stall outside the restaurant – a shaved ice stall.
Unlike the fruit stall, the shaved ice this time is free.
Each person could receive a bowl of peach shaved ice.
The Rabbit Butler didn’t understand why Wen Bei did that. It felt like it was a ghost. Someone who was only thinking about making money would never actually do such an activity.
It was so scared that its fur stood on end, and it even suspected that its boss had been replaced.
It walked around and observed Wen Bei, but found nothing unusual.
The most important thing is that Qiu Tin has always been standing beside him like a giant pet.
If the boss really was replaced, he would definitely be the first one to notice something was wrong.
So the boss just changed his personality! ?
This is even more difficult for the Rabbit Butler to accept.
Finally, Wen Bei couldn’t stand its stupid look anymore, so he bent down and whispered something in its ear.
The Rabbit Butler showed a look of sudden enlightenment, and his fur stopped standing up. He clapped his hands towards Wen Bei.
Soon, all the guests in the Hotel had free shaved ice, and Wen Bei also expressed his request.
The Hotel would undergo a major renovation tonight. At 8 o’clock, all consumption venues would be closed and individual guests should need to leave. Travelers who had booked rooms were restricted from leaving their rooms.
The request was a bit sudden. If it had been made before, some people might have complained. After all, they had risked their lives to reach the Hotel, but tonight there was a sudden restriction.
But now they had just eaten the free shaved ice given by the boss, and no one had any objections and they all nodded in agreement.
At the same time, smarter people had begun to figure out the other meaning behind the owner’s words.
They realized that after tonight, maybe something would be different.
