Chapter 41: Chapter 41: Ugly Greed Revealed

"Boss Chu, could you help us open a deluxe three-person room?"

Ling Feng didn’t want to watch Jiang Zhenzhen’s charade anymore. Having been out for so many days without a shower, he just wanted to clean up as soon as possible.

Chu Jiangyue quickly set up the room for them, on the seventh floor of Building No. 2. Not many people were staying in the deluxe suites at the moment.

Watching as Ling Feng and his two companions left, Jiang Zhenzhen’s expression soured.

She initially thought she could stay with Ling Feng, only to be humiliated in the end.

Yet, she was thick-skinned; after Ling Feng and the others left, she set her sights on Chu Jiangyue.

"Yueyue, you said before that as long as I got my identity card, you’d give me gold coins, but you..."

"Did you misunderstand something? I never said I’d give you gold coins."

What she said was: Let’s talk again once you get your identity card.

"Talk again" was merely setting a precondition, without any explicit promise.

"You definitely said it!"

"What, trying to trick me for gold coins and want a free ride in the hotel?"

Zhenzhen, I think you wouldn’t want to be expelled directly from the hotel, right? So far, not a single person expelled has returned."

However, Chu Jiangyue hadn’t received any death notice.

Still, it could be used to scare Jiang Zhenzhen.

Jiang Zhenzhen certainly understood what being expelled meant. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Only then did she realize Chu Jiangyue had truly changed.

The old Chu Jiangyue used to do everything she said, but the current Chu Jiangyue radiated cold-bloodedness, and even when facing other guests, seemed detached.

"Don’t default on the room fee~"

Chu Jiangyue kindly reminded her.

Knowing she wouldn’t get any gold coins from Chu Jiangyue, Jiang Zhenzhen glared at her with hatred before turning to leave Building No. 2.

Unable to default on the room fee and having no one to rely on, Jiang Zhenzhen could only venture out alone to find exchangeable resources.

In the following two days, Chu Jiangyue continued hosting the big eater competitions during the day to boost the restaurant’s revenue.

After Song Chengjun took the leftover road construction material bags from Chu Jiangyue, he organized a bustling road construction project.

Spreading out from the front of Jianglin Hotel, the four-lane width could completely compare to highways before the apocalypse.

However, the roads built with system-provided material packages not only blocked out zombies but also made the connection between Jianglin Hotel and B City Safety Base safer.

Seeing Song Chengjun organize road construction, many people curiously gathered around, and upon learning the road could block zombies, everyone gasped in amazement.

This wasn’t the time to joke.

Therefore, many people conducted experiments on the newly constructed road sections.

And the facts proved Song Chengjun was telling the truth.

Now, many people sought out Chu Jiangyue.

If roads could be constructed between B City Safety Base and Jianglin Hotel, couldn’t they be built between other safety bases too?

This way, searching for lost relatives would be more convenient and safe.

Eyeing those who wanted her to donate road construction materials for free nationwide, Chu Jiangyue’s expression turned grim.

"The road construction material bag was purchased by B City Safety Base for 2 gold coins per meter. How about... which base do you want to build a road to?

As long as you can afford gold coins, I can give you the route planning maps for free."

It’s easy for them to appear righteous when it’s not their skin being cut.

But when their interests are touched, they instantly recoil like quails.

"Boss Chu, you said it’s 2 gold coins per meter. We are just ordinary people; where would we get so much money?"

"Boss Chu, I think they have a point. With zombies rampaging and the heatwave, everyone should work together and forge ahead.

If you lack the capacity, that’s one thing, but Boss Chu, since you have the ability to save people in distress, why are you unwilling?"

Zheng Wen’an stood up, speaking in a refined and mannered fashion, though it sounded overly pedantic, and Chu Jiangyue found it irritating.

"Work together and forge ahead? Sure, you provide the gold coins and I’ll provide the materials. Nationwide roads are nothing; I can even build roads globally.

How about it? Since Mr. Zheng was the first to suggest it, why don’t you be the first to donate?"

Zheng Wen’an fell silent; he only wanted to showcase his noble image, not plan on spending his own money.

Besides, he didn’t have that much money even if he sold everything he had.

"Mr. Zheng doesn’t want to? Then, who among you wants to donate? It’s only 2 gold coins per meter; it’s not that expensive, is it?"

"Haha... Boss Chu, you’re really putting them in a tight spot. You want them to contribute financially, materially, and even do the work; a group of stingy misers wanting to benefit while doing nothing."

Shen Zhigui and his group of five returned to the hotel without anyone noticing and happened to overhear the conversation.

"Mr. Jiang’s injury healed?"

Seeing Jiang He, Chu Jiangyue inquired.

When they left, she hadn’t returned from the cabin, so she saw Jiang He only when they came back at night.

"Thank you, Boss Chu, for your concern. I’m fine now."

After lying in bed for several days, Jiang He looked full of energy when he ventured out today.

And Zheng Wen’an and those who wanted to fleece Chu Jiangyue blushed upon hearing Jiang He’s remarks.

Indeed, that was their intention, but being told so bluntly was utterly embarrassing.

"She only needs to wander around the hotel every day, even wearing high heels today.

She’s already living a life none of us could enjoy; we work hard every day outside for resources and killing zombies, just asking her to contribute a little. What’s wrong with that?"

Chu Jiangyue enjoyed a carefree life without fighting zombies, more leisurely than anyone else, leading to plenty of envy over time.

Previously lacking an opportunity, they now found an excuse, eagerly wanting to drag Chu Jiangyue down.

"Tch! Really a bunch of ingrates. Without Boss Chu, you’d be god knows where now!

If you resent Boss Chu living well, then don’t stay at Jianglin Hotel!

It’s like eating a meal and then cursing your host. No, you’re even eating and cursing at the same time, utterly shameless!"

Lin Xuyuan had never seen such shameless people.

If it were him, once these people uttered their first word, he would immediately expel them and blacklist them.

"You! We’re clearly thinking about everyone’s benefit. Once the road is built, you all will benefit too! You are the ingrates!"

Liu Yiyi couldn’t stand seeing Zheng Wen’an insulted; she spoke out without thinking.

"We don’t need Boss Chu to build roads for us. When it comes to finding relatives, we can rely on our own strength."

Shen Zhigui and his group certainly had plans to find relatives, just not at the moment.
