Chapter 452 A good citizen who abides by laws and regulations
They stayed here for a total of four days, working day and night.
Finally, the words were all emphasized, and the captain in front of him was swaying while standing still.
"Your mission is completed. We will send you back immediately."
He knew that he would not get a response from the severely sleep-deprived citizens, so he continued on his own: "According to the regulations, each person can receive 500 contribution points per day. You have worked for four days, a total of contribution points, pay them now."
Hearing that they could receive such a huge salary, the distressed crowd perked up, rolled up their sleeves that fluttered dust at the touch of a finger, and opened the payment page of the virtual bracelet.
The sound of the money arriving one after another made them smile again, and the captain's next words deepened their joy.
"Since you have been very dedicated and honest these past few days, I have sorted out some items. Each of you can pick two to take home."
Anjiu and grandma each took two items, a torn carpet, a roll of very thin wool, a broom for sweeping the bed, and a small round stool.
After everything was distributed, the captain said the last words.
"I hope you can forget everything you saw here and be a good citizen who abides by the law. Can you do that?"
After hearing the profound meaning, everyone dared not say no and nodded in agreement.
"Line up and go out. There's a car waiting for you outside." The captain stepped aside and looked coldly at everyone who passed by.
It seems that these faces need to be remembered firmly.
During these four days they traveled through every corner of the ruined city, and everyone witnessed with their own eyes how the indestructible stones disappeared.
Just as the captain said on the first day, the disappearance rate doubled with each day that followed.
It didn't take them long to reach the edge of the city.
Anjiu looked at the city road surface under his feet. It seemed as if it had been rubbed by strips of rubber, blurring and disappearing, revealing the original appearance of the wasteland.
Perhaps in just three days, this city that once hosted civilization will completely disappear from the world.
Apart from these witnesses, no one knew it ever existed.
Sitting in the carriage, everyone huddled together, tilted their heads and rested their heads on others' shoulders, and fell into a deep sleep in the swaying.
When they arrived at the destination, the driver got off the car to wake them up. The group walked into the portal in a daze, completely forgetting whether there was anyone waiting for them on the other side of the iceberg.
I returned to the beehive and knew that I could finally go home and have a good sleep. My relaxed mentality made my body more tired. I felt so weak that I didn't want to move at all.
Grandma forced herself to light a fire and boil water, then asked Anjiu to wash up first.
An Jiu took Pu Huai into the space and told him not to come out for the time being.
She changed her dirty clothes, wet a towel, and stood by the stove to wash her body clean. After soaking her feet, she snuggled comfortably in the quilt. The moment she lay down, she couldn't help but hug the pillow and hum to express her joy.
Grandma poured out the dirty water, changed a new basin and washed, then lay down in the quilt feeling refreshed.
The small crackling sounds in the stove were like a lullaby, making the two already tired people fall asleep quickly.
They slept for a long time, waking up several times to eat something, drink some water, and add some coal to the stove, then lying back in bed and falling asleep again.
Physical fatigue can be restored through a good sleep.
Anjiu began to plan how to spend his contribution points wisely.
The most important thing is to store water.
By the way, she had ordered a bottle of water worth 1,000 contribution points from Boss Zhang, and they agreed that she would go and pick it up within three days, but she had already broken the promise!
Anjiu quickly put on her down jacket and said, "Grandma, I'm going downstairs!"
I hope Boss Zhang can listen to her explanation...
On the 28th floor, there is the Cailutong small shop.
Boss Zhang, who usually sat behind the counter, broke his usual habit and sat at the door for two days in a row.
"Ugh!"
"I spent all day hunting geese, and in the end I got my eyes pecked by them."
"Confused!"
He thought it was a big order and was afraid it would fail, so he agreed on the order with the supplier that day.
The other party was annoyed by his bargaining and simply said, "It's not impossible to give the price you mentioned, but the prerequisite is that it must be at least 800 contribution points!"
I thought stingy boss Zhang would back out after hearing this, but he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Give me ten bottles of water for free, and I'll order it now!"
"...Oh, the sun is rising from the west today! Then you pay the deposit in full and I'll deliver it!"
Boss Zhang looked at the ten bottles of water given away for free beside him and regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
You deserve it! I let you be greedy!
Now it's all in your hands, right?!
If he sees that damn girl again, she will do this and that, twisting herself more like a twist than a dough stick!
"Boss Zhang."
"Go inside and choose, don't bother me while I beat people up!"
"Boss Zhang, it's me—"
"I don't care who you are," Boss Zhang was about to cry when he found out that his waist had become thinner. He was so worried about the past two days that all the fat he had put on was gone. "Unless you are the one who bought the water, I can be happy again."
"..." Anjiu took a breath after running, "Then you can be happy again. I am you."
Boss Zhang:?
He raised his head, and when he saw Anjiu's face clearly, his expression was filled with shock and ecstasy.
"You finally came!"
"Why did you come here!"
"Do you know how long I've been waiting for you? Look, I've lost weight!"
He jumped up on the spot, the fat on his face shook up and down, and he pinched his waist to show Anjiu.
Anjiu: Is it too late for her to cover her eyes now?
"The water has arrived, right?" she quickly changed the subject.
"It's here. I'll get the goods the next day if you're sure you want them. I've been waiting for you to come. We agreed to come every three days..."
When it comes to business-related matters, Boss Zhang immediately reverts to his profiteer mode. He didn't openly complain about Anjiu's breaking of the appointment. After all, he knew that Anjiu showed up only to buy water.
If you ruin your business completely just to vent your anger, that's called acting on impulse.
He is no longer young and is not so impulsive.
An Jiu heard the hidden meaning in his words and gave a brief explanation.
"I was out and couldn't come back because of something. I came to see you right after I got home. Luckily you still kept the goods for me. Boss Zhang, you are an honest person. I like you. How about this, to express my apology, I will order another one thousand contribution value goods!"
"What? Another order?!" Boss Zhang's eyes widened, he could hardly believe his ears.
What a belated miracle this is!
He knows that good things are worth waiting for!
Yes, he is indeed an honest man, and this girl is very good at judging people!
An Jiu nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I'm a man of my words. Let me find a way to get these goods back first, and then I'll pay you the deposit for the next batch of goods. You have--"
"Yes, yes. Do you want a cart? Of course I have one! If you can't handle it by yourself, I'll close the store and deliver the goods to you!"
