Chapter 77: Chapter 77: New Iced Drink Mission

As Chu Jiangyue’s words fell, soon people began to pour in.

"Boss Chu, we want to stay in the deluxe 6-person suite."

The first to come over was Jin Churan and his group.

Strong and capable of fighting zombies, they had Gold Coins in their accounts, and even their accommodation was the best possible.

"No problem, how long will you be staying?"

Chu Jiangyue operated on the virtual screen on the counter and then asked.

"We’ll stay for a month first."

Jin Chuyu instantly made the decision and then took out her Identity Card.

"Twelve silver coins per day, thirty days make it 3 Gold Coins and 60 silver coins. Divided among six people, that’s 60 silver coins per person. You can swipe your Identity Card here."

For Chu Jiangyue, processing guests’ check-ins had become second nature.

Jin Churan and his companions took out their Identity Cards and swiped each card on the sensor area of the payment device.

The next moment, 60 silver coins were deducted from each person.

"It’s done, your room is number 1201. Enter through Building 3 and take the elevator to the 12th floor."

Having truly become guests, Jin Chuyu and the others showed smiles on their faces.

"Thank you, Boss Chu. We’ll go check out the room first."

Since it’s a deluxe 6-person suite, it can’t be that bad.

The ordinary suites at Jianglin Hotel are far better than the accommodations provided to residents at the B City Base.

Not to mention the fact that they can be kept clean daily, something the base simply cannot maintain.

The other people coming for check-in weren’t familiar to Chu Jiangyue, but she diligently processed their check-ins.

The rush of check-ins today barely ended by noon.

Chu Jiangyue directed the remaining stragglers to Jiang Yang for processing.

Once she was finally free, Chu Jiangyue left the office hall immediately to look for Granny Hua in Building 3.

Meanwhile, as Chu Jiangyue was processing the check-ins and went to find Granny Hua, many noticed a new icy drink in the restaurant.

Drinking this icy beverage could keep one unaffected by the extreme heat outside for two hours. It was 2 silver coins per cup, but a maximum of 3 cups could be consumed daily.

Drinking the fourth cup would only serve as a normal icy drink.

A 2 silver coin cost isn’t expensive, but drinking 3 cups a day wouldn’t be cheap either.

However, this offered a second option for those who couldn’t afford the temperature control suit, bringing quite a surprise to many.

When Chu Jiangyue arrived at Building 3, Granny Hua happened to be coming out.

"You’re here, I was just about to go and make you lunch."

Granny Hua, timing it just right, came out of her single room to prepare a meal for Chu Jiangyue in the cabin.

"No rush, have you eaten yet?"

Chu Jiangyue wasn’t hungry just yet.

"I could buy something from the restaurant first, it’ll still be time to make your meal."

Granny Hua always remembered she was hired by Chu Jiangyue to prepare meals thrice daily.

Otherwise, with the shareholding at Jianglin Hotel, she didn’t know when her turn would come, as a granny with one foot in the grave.

"The restaurant has a new drink today, I was wanting to try it. Let’s have a meal there together."

Chu Jiangyue wasn’t serious about making Granny Hua her chef, so she sought excuses to prevent Granny Hua from laboring.

Suspicious, Granny Hua cast a glance at Chu Jiangyue, feeling as if Chu Jiangyue wasn’t genuinely eager for her to make meals.

"Alright, alright, they say the new drink in the restaurant has special features, aren’t you curious to try it?"

Chu Jiangyue took hold of Granny Hua’s arm, half pulling and half dragging her into the restaurant.

Once inside, they saw many people gathered around the restaurant’s goods counter.

Previously, the counter had only displayed steamed buns, pork buns, corn, and bok choy, but now included a beverage section.

Chu Jiangyue noticed many people purchasing 3 cups of the cooling icy drink and leaving the restaurant without consuming them.

Chu Jiangyue guessed they probably intended to use the icy drink’s feature for zombie hunting and resource gathering outside.

"Granny Hua, would you like to try a cup?"

Although there were many people waiting at the counter, Chu Jiangyue could buy at wholesale price from her own shop.

What she purchased from her shop could be given to others or resold.

For Granny Hua, who held 80 silver coins, a price of 2 silver coins per cup wasn’t much nor little.

With her wages, she could only occasionally enjoy a single cup for a change, daily consumption would be impossible.

"There are too many people, let’s look at other things first."

The restaurant’s dishes hadn’t changed for a long time, and many guests at Jianglin Hotel had tired of them.

Yet compared to the moldy and putrid food outside, the dishes in Jianglin Hotel’s restaurant were precious.

Both Chu Jiangyue and Granny Hua refrained from ordering too much, with just red-braised pork, stir-fried tomatoes and eggs, and vinegar-sautéed potato strips, along with two bowls of rice.

A mix of meat and vegetables, balanced nutrition.

For Chu Jiangyue, ordering in the restaurant cost nothing, though Granny Hua, not keen on gaining petty benefits, insisted on paying half of Chu Jiangyue’s cost.

This effectively meant Chu Jiangyue earned a wholesale profit.

Since the price for dishes on the counter was double Chu Jiangyue’s purchase price from her shop.

Unable to refuse Granny Hua, Chu Jiangyue accepted half-payment in the end.

[Task issued: Sell cooling icy drinks within 3 days (0/5000), task reward: to be unlocked]

Just after Chu Jiangyue had a sip of the icy drink, she heard about the sudden task.

Selling 5000 cups in 3 days seemed like an unreasonable challenge for Chu Jiangyue.

The number of guests at Jianglin Hotel is relatively small, and compared to B City Base, it’s minor.

Even including those living at Prosperity Heights, selling 5000 cups within 3 days was difficult.

Unless she was lucky, encountering groups of students or gathered survivors.

But such opportunities are rare, and areas around Jianglin Hotel capable of hiding people were mostly explored.

To find more survivors, searching further afield would be necessary.

Facing such an issue, Chu Jiangyue instinctively frowned.

"What’s the matter?"

Granny Hua was the first to notice the change in Chu Jiangyue’s mood.

"Nothing, just some thoughts you don’t need to worry about."

To complete the task, Chu Jiangyue couldn’t do it alone, she’d need Song Chengjun to rally people from the base.

Newcomers to Jianglin Hotel often fell for impulsive spending.

After dining with Granny Hua in the restaurant, Chu Jiangyue went looking for Song Chengjun.

When Chu Jiang Yue found Song Chengjun, he was organizing those who hadn’t managed to check into Jianglin Hotel, ready to return to B City Safety Base.

When he saw Chu Jiang Yue coming over, he naturally greeted her: "Boss Chu."

"Captain Song, did you hear about the new cooling icy drink in the restaurant?"

Observing Song Chengjun busily engaged, Chu Jiang Yue glanced at him sympathetically.
