End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

Chapter 67 People are afraid of being famous

Upon hearing the sound, the people who were moving the wild boar looked at the broken cart on the ground, and sure enough, there were two big rats under the wild boar.

Everyone looked at Lu Zhu beside them. What a great guy! He brought back so many supplies at once. Although rats are also meat, they also tried to catch them, but they never succeeded.

They were too hungry and thirsty and didn't have the energy to catch a mouse that was running so fast.

The pig was put into the cart. Without waiting for any reaction, the weight of more than 200 pounds lifted up the handlebars. Xiao Zhang climbed up hurriedly, trying to balance the cart.

But it was useless, so he asked the power user to adjust the position of the wild boar before the front of the car came down.

Then he pressed the two mice to the front of the car to prevent the car from tipping over like what happened just now.

They rode their bikes in front, and Lu Zhu followed behind all the way to the service hall.

The scorching gazes on the road made Lu Zhu feel that this wild boar would be eaten alive by these eyes before it could even be plucked and put into the pot.

I couldn't help but swallow my saliva. Fortunately, they escorted me in, otherwise the fight here would definitely be no worse than that at the door.

After going through untold hardships, they finally arrived at the service hall. The two people who were redeeming their points excitedly came out of the window to welcome the wild boar.

This was the first time they received such a large amount of meat supplies since the base was built. Before, they only had some rabbits and pheasants, which were given away by their superiors before they were even plucked.

This time there is such a big pig and two such big rats, they must be selling some of them in the supermarket on the second floor.

I have lost interest in eating vegetarian food recently. This is meat! Even if there is some oil residue, it is delicious!

Two of the weights on the old-fashioned platform scale were replaced and another one was added.

"Two hundred and sixty kilograms of wild boar~" the person at the exchange window excitedly blurted out the number. With so much meat, they could probably share a bowl of broth, right?

"Two mice weigh thirty-five kilograms~" Rats nowadays are so big that the people at the exchange window were shocked. They also knew that animals have mutated and become very big, but this was the first time that someone had caught a mouse.

"Little sister, the points for meat are 10 points per pound. Pork will give you 2,600 points. Although rat is also meat, its price is not as competitive as pork. It is 5 points per pound, giving you 175 points."

Lu Zhu calculated and thought the price was reasonable, so he nodded in agreement.

"Give me your points card and I'll add the points to your account." Seeing that Lu Zhu agreed, the lady at the redemption window smiled from ear to ear.

After gaining more than 2,000 points at once, Lu Zhu had the illusion of becoming suddenly rich. If she had known, she would have only had double-digit points before yesterday.

It can be seen that food supplies are scarce and in short supply.

Lu Zhu had a huge sum of money in her pocket, so she didn't hesitate and went straight to the hardware store. She wanted to renovate the house as soon as possible.

Although I don’t know how long I can stay in the Fire Base, the issue of housing is urgent no matter where I am.

Little did she know that someone had already set their sights on her. Come to think of it, it would be hard not to attract attention if such a big wild boar was transported in.

When Lu Zhu went to the hardware store, those people followed her all the way. Lu Zhu originally thought that they were going the same way, but when she turned around inadvertently, she determined their purpose.

It is true that people are afraid of becoming famous just like pigs are afraid of getting fat. If there is even the slightest sign of being famous, people with ulterior motives will target you.

Fortunately, the base was not that big and the hardware store was not far away, so we arrived there in a short while.

This time, Lu Zhu was not allowed to shout. The boss just sat idly in the store and chattered.

"Boss, I'm here again~" Lu Zhu greeted the boss.

"Well, here I am. What do you want?" The tone clearly showed that he had forgotten about Lu Zhu.

"Yesterday you said that the whole set of doors and windows should be calculated based on one household, right?" Lu Zhu said.

The boss then looked up at her and thought for a moment, "Oh! It's you! Yes, it's calculated based on one household. How many points do you want?"

"500 points. If possible, I'd like to add a little more money to improve the specifications of the reinforcement." Lu Zhu looked at the boss calmly and said.

"You want the enhanced version? It's not impossible... 800 points, I guarantee you'll be satisfied." Seeing that she was not joking, the boss directly quoted a price.

"Deal, I'll give you the address, and you can decide when to go and install it..." Lu Zhu didn't act pretentiously and asked his question directly.

"I'll go with you to measure the dimensions now, and the work can be completed and inspected in about five days! You pay a deposit of 400 points first, and you can get a full refund if you are not satisfied." The boss patted his chest and made the promise.

"Okay~" Lu Zhu immediately took out his points card and paid the deposit.

The tail that had been following her before walked away after she entered the hardware store.

So when Lu Zhu and the owner of the closed shop walked on the street, they were a little surprised. Why did those people give up just like that?

"What's wrong?" Seeing that she didn't move, the boss turned around and asked her.

"Nothing, let's go~" Lu Zhu came back to his senses and continued to lead the way.

After more than half an hour, we finally reached the deepest part of Area C. The boss was a little surprised as to how we could be here, in a place where there was no village in front and no shop behind.

But he didn't ask, and just followed Lu Zhu's footsteps and went to Room 601.

After opening the door, the boss didn't say much. He walked around the house, drew a floor plan on a notebook with a pen and paper, and then started measuring with a ruler.

After a while, he finished measuring, took the notebook and came to Lu Zhu.

"Do you have any specific requirements? So that I can help you choose the right materials based on your needs." The boss asked diligently.

"Make the door thicker for me, and use the best lock that can resist hacking and unlocking, and can be installed behind the original door," Lu Zhu slowly stated his request.

"All doors and windows need to be reinforced, thickened and insulated," Lu Zhu continued.

The boss who was taking notes raised his head, as if he smelled something.

"Little sister, do you know any inside information?" the boss couldn't help but ask.

"There's no inside information. It's just that natural disasters are so frequent nowadays, so it's better to be prepared," Lu Zhu replied calmly.

The boss didn't ask any more questions and continued to write down Lu Zhu's request.

"Besides doors and windows, do you have any other needs? Do you need floors or something like that?" asked the boss.

"No, the last request is that the doors and windows should be easy to disassemble," Lu Zhu said slowly.

"Devable?" The boss looked up in confusion.

"It's so expensive. What if we stop renting it? We can always replace the doors and windows." Lu Zhu said mischievously.

"Yeah, that's right." The boss was unable to refute and nodded to make a note of it.

After confirming Lu Zhu's request again, the boss took a spare key from Lu Zhu and went back.

There is nothing in this room, and Lu Zhu has nothing else to do in this house. It’s getting late, so he might as well go to the mountain first.

So after the boss went downstairs for a few minutes, Lu Zhu watched him from the balcony and saw him really leave. She also closed the door and went downstairs immediately.
