Apocalypse Rental House

After twenty years of the apocalypse, everyone had gradually adapted to the extreme environment and terrifying zombies. Some single men and women formed families together. Xu Ying was the product of one such family. She thought she was the only child in the family, but her father actually had two more sons. To end their hardship, her father decided to welcome them into his tiny safehouse that was less than 600 square feet. When her mother saw this happening, she also brought in her ex-husband, daughter, and daughter-in-law who could not take care of themselves. That's how Xu Ying, the 'single' child ended up being forced to live in the bathroom! The family, which seemed happy on the outside, was broken once and for all. In the end, Xu Ying was kicked out of the house. She too decided to cut off all ties with them. Even if she starved to death or froze to death, she'd wander out there and never return. To her surprise, she was bound to a landlady system on the first day she left home. She was directly gifted with a safety zone that spanned 30,000 square feet. While her scumbag parents and their family were still cramped up in a tiny house, Xu Ying was living comfortably in a large single-story property. She kept the place clean and comfortable. On top of that, she built one new house after another. When business was doing well, all of her units would be rented out. She could even pet cats and dogs. She also got to know a group of powerful tenants. It's practically a fairy tale. Did I suffer for the past eighteen years just to acquire all this today? She thought to herself. "Honey, you forgot about me and left me outside the rental house!" Wei Qiyan exclaimed.

Chapter 9: Extravagant furniture for Captain Wei

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

His teammates immediately expressed their goodwill to Xu Ying. "Miss Xu, when you have an open room in the future, you must leave it for us. Please leave your contact information. If you need us in the future, just let me know!"

Xu Ying accepted their contact information and promises. She felt that she had inadvertently gained a lot of support! The Wasteland Reclaimers who had survived until now were all experts.

Wei Qiyan revealed a rare smile but didn't say anything.

"By the way, I want to ask if the Wasteland Reclaimers who signed up can not go?" Xu Ying thought about it and decided to ask about it. Moreover, she had no strength and no superpower, but she had this rental system. Even though she went, she would only be a burden to the Wasteland Reclaimers and might even lose her life. Not to mention, she needed to take care of the house in Peach Blossom Land.

"According to the rules, it's not allowed." Wei Qiyan frowned.

Xu Ying's face turned bitter. Shi Qinfeng had signed up behind her back…

"You signed up?" Wei Qiyan asked disapprovingly. To be honest, the Wasteland Reclaimers did not want such a weak little girl. She would either be a burden or die.

Xu Ying nodded stiffly.

Wei Qiyan thought for a moment and said, "If you don't go, you'll have to pay a fine. Moreover, you'll have to have a family member to replace you. However, if you pay enough money alone, the higher-ups won't make things difficult for you."

Xu Ying scratched her head awkwardly.

"I lied when I said that my parents were dead. In fact, they are still alive, but my family is a little complicated ... so I just said that they were dead. I had made up my mind not to acknowledge them for the rest of my life. But they went behind my back and signed me up for the Wasteland Reclaimers. By the time I found out, it was already too late…"

Wei Qiyan understood that her parents didn't want the little girl to live. She actually had parents like that?

"Go to the base's talent management center and split up from your family as an adult. Explain the situation and say that I'm the one who introduced you. When the time comes, your parents will still have to pay for it."

"Can I?" Xu Ying's eyes lit up. She had been shut up at home for a long time, so she did not know much about society.

Shi Qinfeng and the others wished that she knew less so that they could control her.

Wei Qiyan nodded. "Of course. This way, you won't have to join the army, and you won't have to pay a fine."

Xu Ying was extremely grateful. "Thank you so much. How about this? I'll give you a 20% discount for that room! When I have money, I'll add facilities to your room as soon as I can!"

When Wei Qiyan heard this, his face revealed a faint smile. "Your way of thanking others is to give them a discount on their rent?"

"I don't have anything else." Xu Ying was embarrassed.

Wei Qiyan looked at her with a hint of pity.

The next day, at dawn, Wei Qiyan and his group left.

Xu Ying didn't delay and hurried to the talent management center to show her identification and Wei Qiyan's name.

"You should have said so earlier. So you're Captain Wei's friend. We've understood this matter. It's true that your parents signed up for you without consensus. This is absolutely not allowed in our Vermilion Bird Base. We'll follow up and take disciplinary measures later. Don't worry."

In less than half an hour, Xu Ying was free from the troubles of her family. She couldn't help but smile. This was the first time she experienced the convenience of a favor. When she was young, she had followed Shi Qinfeng here to handle some matters. Even the simplest matter had taken them three months to complete. However, she couldn't help but think about it. Wei Qiyan, this captain, didn't seem to be an ordinary Wasteland Reclaimers captain. However, she was not a curious person and would not take the initiative to probe into other people's privacy.

Now that she had settled the important matter on her mind, she only wanted to go home and spend money! Buy a bed! Buying a bathroom! Of course, he also wanted to add something to Wei Qiyan's room as a form of thanks!

The gold coins contributed by her scumbag father and the rent that Wei Qiyan paid in advance allowed Xu Ying to have a lot of money. When she got home, she immediately placed an order to buy herself a solid wood bed and a set of fabric sofas to place in her empty living room. In addition, there was a separate toilet, sink, and a separate shower room. It could be said that compared to the past, it was quite extravagant.

She spent a total of 1560 gold coins. With the remaining money, she opened up a single room and spent 1000 gold coins. She also added basic solid wood beds, shower heads, toilets, pools, and other facilities to the room. She even generously gave him a large wardrobe.

Finally, she set the room to a monthly rental mode. She planned to save the remaining gold coins. After all, the system upgrade required 10,000 gold coins.

[Single Room No. 3 has a monthly rental mode. According to the interior decoration system, the short-term rental fee should be 10000 gold coins. If you want to increase the rent, please purchase high-quality home furnishings.]

Xu Ying smiled contentedly as she listened to the system announcement.
