Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

The next morning, Zeng You asked a friend to take her to the shop rented by Gu Tongwan. When she first saw the office buildings and residential areas next door, she was stunned for a moment. She even asked her friend to drive around several times before she finally saw a particularly inconspicuous shop at the entrance of the residential area.

Zeng You was still hesitating whether this was the place when she happened to see Gu Tongwan walking out.

"Wait, Fengzi, drive the car back, I saw the boss." Zeng You said hurriedly, pulling his friend's sleeve.

The young man named Fengzi immediately turned the steering wheel back to the door of the original store, and sure enough, he saw a slim girl standing in front of the store.

The weather was hot, and Gu Tongwan didn't wear a mask. She tied her hair into a high ponytail and wore a loose sportswear.

Only after Fengzi and Zeng You got off the car did they see the girl's appearance clearly.

She has fair skin and delicate features. Although her eyebrows and eyes are cold, they have a breathtaking beauty. She has a standard oval face and is obviously a beauty that is so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off her.

He just didn't expect that a girl could open a store in the apocalypse. In addition, Zeng You had mentioned this boss to him before, and he knew that people who could open a store in the inner circle of the apocalypse were not simple. Perhaps he shouldn't think that the other person is weak just because she is a girl.

The hot morning sun was so intense that it was almost impossible to open one's eyes. Fengzi wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt the skin exposed outside his short-sleeved shirt was burning, as if it was on fire.

On the other hand, the girl opposite was wearing long sleeves and long pants. Although there was a little sweat on her forehead, she did not have to wipe it off like he and Zeng You did.

Although he didn't know why he had to wear long sleeves in this kind of weather, he thought that maybe he was worried about sunburn. Last time he went home wearing a sports vest, the journey was only half an hour, but when he got home, his skin was immediately tanned red because he was exposed to the sun, and he almost peeled off a layer of skin.

As soon as Zeng You saw Gu Tongwan, he immediately called out in a friendly manner: "Boss, do you still remember me? I bought insecticide from you last time."

Gu Tongwan glanced at the other person and smiled, "You are [Yuzu Tea]."

Zeng You nodded immediately, and then signaled Fengzi to take down the air conditioner.

Two people were moving the air conditioner outdoor unit together, but it was obvious that Zeng You was not strong enough and he couldn't lift the other side several times.

Finally, Gu Tongwan took over and whispered, "Let me do it."

Fengzi was originally puzzled. Her small figure looked similar to Zeng You, so wouldn't it be the same if someone else came?

Unexpectedly, Gu Tongwan lifted up the entire air conditioner outdoor unit in one go, as if she had not put in any effort.

This startled Fengzi, and he vaguely guessed that this beautiful woman might be a powerful psychic.

After moving the air conditioner outdoor unit to the innermost room, Fengzi took a breath and asked, "Is the maintenance engineer not here?"

Zeng You also followed in at this time and found that the store was empty, which was completely different from the usual bustling electrical appliance repair shops.

"The maintenance technician is a part-time worker. He usually comes to repair the unit at dinner time. You just need to leave the unit here. I will give you a receipt later. It will include the charge for the unit and the time to pick it up."

Fengzi wanted to ask more, but Zeng You poked him with his elbow, signaling Fengzi not to ask too much.

Zeng You took a quick look at the receipt, signed it when there were no major issues, and paid a deposit of forty points in advance.

When he got back to the car, Fengzi couldn't help but glance at the ordinary but strange store through the rearview mirror, and asked, "Don't you think it's a bit strange?"

"It's cheap, but it doesn't look like a maintenance room. And if they start repairs at night, they'll have to do it all night long. Do normal people really have that much energy?"

Zeng You pursed her lips and finally said, "Don't worry about these things. Nowadays, who can get along well in the inner circle without their own means and connections? What we see may not be true. Anyway, I don't care who the other party is. I only care whether my air conditioner can be fixed. As long as they can bring me convenience and have a good reputation, I am willing to deal with them."

Fengzi touched his nose and seemed to think that there was nothing wrong with Zeng You's words.

In fact, Fengzi's family is much richer than Zengyou's. His father is the third in command of the base's research institute, and his family lives in a villa area. He met Zengyou while working at the base. He has been pursuing Zengyou for more than a year, but Zengyou has always refused on the grounds that she is too young to have a relationship. However, Fengzi really likes Zengyou so much that he would rather maintain their current friendship. On the other hand, he also needs to secretly guard against those who have ideas about Zengyou in private.

This time he was also kindly reminding Zeng You, but he didn't expect that Zeng You was much more mature than him, and considered things much more clearly than himself.

Zeng You is only about 20 years old this year, how come she is more mature than myself when I was 23?

Fengzi continued, "But it's only 400 points. This boss must be doing good things. Last time, I hired someone to come to my house to add refrigerant for the air conditioner. They added about six grids of refrigerant and charged me 1,200. Adding the labor cost, the total cost was 1,400. The three air conditioners cost my father almost a month's salary. It's really expensive."

Zeng You sneered, "Your father is quite rich, and his monthly salary is quite high, but don't talk about this in front of others casually in the future. People who don't know may think you are showing off your wealth, and it's easy for others to take notice of you."

Fengzi raised an eyebrow, "Are you concerned about me? I don't worry about others caring about me, I just want you to care about me."

"Get away." Zeng You rolled his eyes at the other person.

In fact, Zeng You didn’t dislike Fengzi, but she always thought that falling in love in the end times was a luxury. No one knew what would happen in the future, and she just wanted to live a stable life.

She originally thought that Fengzi was just like those powerful and wealthy sons who had pursued her before, with only a passing interest in love. However, she didn't expect that Fengzi didn't get discouraged after being rejected by her. Instead, he continued to be friends with her and even became part of her circle of friends. Moreover, this person was very loyal and would definitely help his friends if he could.

So the two of them maintained this ambiguous relationship. Even her parents knew about Fengzi's existence and privately reminded their daughter that if she really liked him, she should be together with him, but if she didn't like him, she shouldn't keep him hanging around as it would not be good for him.

Zeng You didn't know how to explain their relationship to her parents. In fact, it was Fengzi's unilateral choice to start with being friends, but she underestimated Fengzi's perseverance.

At this time, Fengzi said, "By the way, I bought the insecticide from this boss last time. My dad brought it to the office last time and kept asking me where I bought it. He said it was much better than the one from the pest control company."

"You didn't say it?" Zeng You immediately looked at Fengzi nervously.

Fengzi shook his head and said carelessly, "How can that be possible? You told me not to tell anyone. Besides, when I saw my dad's expression, I knew he must want to ask the other party for the research formula. People like them who do scientific research want to study anything special they see. I hate this the most."

Zeng You felt relieved when listening to his complaints. It seemed that Fengzi was not as ignorant as she thought.

On the other side, after taking on a business deal, Gu Tongwan took the repair robot out of the space and closed the door. About five minutes later, she walked in. At this time, the repair robot had stopped working and was leaning against the wall, with the light on its body off.

Gu Tongwan checked the outdoor unit. There was no change from the outside and he didn't know whether the repair was successful. So he turned on the robot again and saw that the robot had no reaction to the air conditioner in front of it. So he knew that the repair robot would not automatically detect machines that should not or did not need to be repaired.

Gu Tongwan took out a label and put it on, indicating that the air conditioner had been successfully repaired.

At this time, the mobile phone message rang again. I looked at the notification bar and found that several unknown accounts had applied to add me as a friend.

These people also had the mentality of giving it a try at the beginning, and at first they were skeptical about the low price just like Zeng You. Gu Tongwan didn't have the patience to explain one by one, so he simply copied and pasted what he had said to Zeng You and forwarded it with one click.

Half of them still thought she was a liar and the conversation ended there. The remaining two asked for the address in detail and said they would go to the store in the afternoon.

Not only did her communication software add her smurf account, but there were also many selfish motives in the background of the forum. Just from the one-hour advertisement and replies from the internet trolls last night, she received dozens of private messages asking for prices in the background.

Gu Tongwan continued to copy and paste her reply. She suddenly felt that customer service jobs were actually quite boring and irritating, especially when they encountered difficult customers and had to explain everything to them one by one.

She, on the other hand, was not in a very good mood. She just repeated one sentence: if you believe it, you can bring it to be repaired, and if you don’t believe it, there is no need to keep asking, there is no need, and you won’t lose anything.

She ignored anyone who tried to bargain or try to find out the repairman's background information or the source of the spare parts used to repair the appliance. They were obviously people from the opposite family asking questions.

In about one morning, we confirmed that there were about three customers who came to pull air conditioners, all of whom lived in the inner circle.

It was almost noon when the second customer arrived. He was a middle-aged man in his forties who insisted on wearing a suit and tie despite the extremely hot weather.

The man looked very anxious. He drove here by himself, but did not turn on the air conditioner. Instead, he looked around from side to side as soon as he arrived. When he got to the store, he found that there was nothing there except a table and chairs and a simple "water dispenser" placed next to it. It was actually a large barrel of water with a few cups placed next to it.

The man kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, which had already wet his chest.

Gu Sheng yawned. Although this store-watching job was not hard, she had been sitting and replying to messages on her laptop the whole morning. The battery fan above her head kept blowing, making her feel dizzy. Fortunately, she was wearing a constant-temperature [tights] under her sportswear, so she could feel the coolness on her body.

A suspicious voice sounded in front.

“Are you the boss?”

Gu Tongwan raised her head, her hand still covering her mouth, lifted her eyelids and looked at the man lazily, then nodded and said, "Yes, it's me."

The man was surprised that the boss was so young. On the one hand, there was a flash of amazement in his eyes when he saw Gu Tongwan, but when he thought that he had more important things to do here, he gave up the idea of ​​going up to chat with her.

"Are you sure you can make the decision on this matter?" The man looked Gu Tongwan up and down with suspicion. It was obvious that he was unwilling to believe that Gu Tongwan was the real boss, and his tone suddenly became contemptuous.

Gu Tongwan had seen many people like this before, and he didn't want to indulge them. His eyes fell on the computer in front of him again. He even planned to go to the room inside and put up a folding bed to rest, and have a bowl of shaved ice. This kind of hot and humid weather was the best time to eat something cold.

The man probably realized that what he said just now was a bit too much, so he hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, beautiful lady, I really have something urgent to discuss with your boss. If you can contact him, can you help me?"

Seeing that he looked anxious, Gu Tongwan knew that he was not lying, so she came out and said calmly, "I am the boss. Tell me what you want to talk about."

“Are you really the boss?”

The man's tone was filled with surprise, but seeing that Gu Tongwan looked indifferent and didn't mean to joke at all, he put away his previous contemptuous attitude and said seriously: "My last name is Huang, and I'm the vice president of a nearby advertising company. Some time ago, the company used overload electricity during overtime, causing the entire circuit breaker to burn out, and even the air conditioners in a building were burned out. The company spent a lot of money to buy these air conditioners last month, and they have been used for less than half a month now."

Halfway through his speech, the man almost wanted to cry, after all, he was the one who was responsible for purchasing the air conditioners in the first place. Now the air conditioners were damaged due to wiring problems, and the company boss directly held him accountable. There were a total of twelve air conditioners, and he only approved 5,000 points for the repair fee. Obviously, he would have to pay for the excess out of his own pocket. He hadn't been able to eat or sleep well during this period of time, all because he was worried about this matter.

The man sighed and continued to talk about his suffering with a gloomy face: "The price offered by the electrical appliance repair shop is too high. Two days ago, they said that I could get it for 7,000 yuan, but today they called me and told me that the price of 7,000 yuan would take three months to get air conditioning. In this kind of weather, I have to wait another three months for air conditioning. Isn't this killing me? The boss is the first to make a move on me."

In short, the man was scrolling through the posts and accidentally saw the advertising post that the "water army" posted for Gu Tongwan, so he sent a private message in the background with the idea of ​​giving it a try. As a result, he really got a response from the other party, and found that this store was near a residential area less than 500 meters away from the company. He drove here today just for this matter.
