Chapter 79: Give another hint

Lu Jiu said: “Anyway, we had already killed the saber-toothed tiger, so it’s okay to know.”

Shen Jufeng didn’t feel worried at all, and just said lightly, “I’m not afraid that he will know, but I just don’t want to be tricked. Since you want to find it, you look for it yourself. If you find it and don’t pay attention, it’s your carelessness.”

Lu Jiu suddenly felt that Shen Jufeng had a dark belly. The other party didn’t remind them last time, and they almost ate an air sickle from the color-changing mantis.

Now, if the other party looks for the saber-toothed tiger, and it has been refreshed, if they were slapped by its tail because of carelessness… … Thinking of this, Lu Jiu laughed.

Lu Jiu then gave the tiger bone and blood to the pharmacy shop. Then the tiger teeth to the blacksmith shop, and the tiger skin to the tailor shop.

The armor that the manager of the blacksmith shop made for them just finished. This was in cooperation with the manager of the tailor shop.

It was like body armor. Although it looks like clothes, it can resist damage in essence.

This armor belongs to the bronze level. It was a sleeveless vest style. It was very thin and felt nothing after wearing it.

Lu Jiu also told the store manager to make some sickles, armor, and other equipment.

Lu Jiu, who had a fulfilling life every day, suddenly remembered that she had said before that she would expel You Xiaoyu and the others. Now that it was autumn, early expulsion would allow them to find their next residence earlier.

The next day, You Xiaoyu and others who were clearing the fields suddenly received a reminder that they were expelled by the city lord of Xuantian City. The reason for the expulsion was that someone reported that they maliciously attacked other residents in the city.

You Xiaoyu immediately thought of Shen Jufeng and Lu Jiu, but she didn’t expect the other party to report to the city lord, and the city lord accepted it.

“What should we do? We were expelled.” The male magician was a little panicked. It was autumn now, but they have to find another city-state to settle down.

The strong man’s complexion was even worse: “Let’s think about where to go next.”

The city lord’s whereabouts were nowhere to be found, except for the time she killed the color-changing mantis, she never appeared in front of everyone again.

“Why does the city lord just listen to them and think that we must be like what the report said?” You Xiaoyu felt that it was unfair, did the city lord just listen to Shen Jufeng’s one-sided words?

“She is the lord of the city, it’s useless to say more now.” She didn’t even greed them for the extra rent, and returned it all.

And they did attack Shen Jufeng and the others first, this was a fact.

As for why things can be sent to them by mail, that was the rule of the game. After the hotel removed their qualifications to stay, the materials they left in the room was transferred back to their backpack.

Several people were expelled before they even had time to return to the city-state. They could only buy instant food from the system mall to fill their stomachs and set off directly.

After expelling You Xiaoyu and others, Lu Jiu came to the restaurant to drink the new chicken soup menu. Drinking chicken soup in autumn was nourishing, which was not an exaggeration.

It was just after 10 in the morning, and most of the ordinary residents and professional residents were out of the city to collect resources and clear the fields. In the huge restaurant, Lu Jiu sat there alone and drank chicken soup.

After the bleak autumn wind blew for a while, Lu Jiu took a sip of the chicken soup to avoid scalding herself.

After eating the chicken soup, she felt her whole body warm up: “Boss, this chicken soup is so delicious, I will have this for breakfast the next week.”

The store manager NPC wiped the cleaned cup, and shook his head with a look of hopelessness on his face: “You always come for breakfast around 10 o’clock.”

The thick-skinned Lu Jiu doesn’t care: “Hey, I sleep late. 2 days ago, I was slapped by a wild monster and vomited blood, and my internal organs were damaged. Of course, I need to rest and nourish myself.”

“Don’t pretend. It’s not like we don’t know that when you are in a negative state and drink the corresponding potion, you will be fine. You are just lazy.” The store manager broke her excuse mercilessly.

Lu Jiu giggled: “It’s too cold to get up early, so go out to bed a little late.”

The store manager didn’t complain about her anymore but just continued to wipe the cups.

After a while, the store manager said abruptly: “It will get colder and colder this day, and more people will come to drink chicken soup in the future. The city lord could expand the area of the restaurant.”

Lu Jiu was drinking the last sip of chicken soup. Hearing what the store manager said, she shrugged her shoulders and quickly put down the bowl, “Oh, so…” Several thoughts had passed through her mind.

Did the NPC give her another hint, indicating that winter will be colder than before the end of the world?

There were two ways to expand the store area, one was to expand the fixed area when the city-state was upgraded, and the other was to expand the store on the original basis when the city-state was upgraded.

As for whether the city-state can expand after it reaches level five, Lu Jiu doesn’t know.

The store manager didn’t speak anymore and continued to wipe the glass. Lu Jiu hurriedly finished the chicken soup, and went to the cashier to check out: “Uncle store manager is a senior chef, and he has excellent cooking skills.”

Before leaving, she even teased him.

Now that she knows the news, she must tell her military adviser Shen Jufeng, but the other party was going out with Zhuang Yun to clear the field.

Today, she was not in the mood to go out to clear the wilderness and went straight back to the City Lord’s Mansion to think about the benefits of upgrading the city-state.

Before night fell, the residents rushed back to the city one after another. Liu Jiu received a few reminders from the City Lord Mansion that some residents in the city have become official residents!

There were four new official residents, namely Lin Zuo, Bai Rou, Yao Bingan, and Wen Hui.

Unexpectedly, there would be four of them in one breath, and the four of them were now eligible to buy a house in a residential area after becoming official residents, which was just like the pre-apocalyptic community.

The interior decoration and furniture were all available, and they can be lived permanently. Even after the owner dies, the house can be passed on to heirs according to his will.

It can be said that if one of the family becomes an official resident, the whole family can move to the residential area because the homeowner can decide who will be eligible to live in his house, which was the authority of the homeowner.

The housing area in the residential area has several square meters and many types of houses. At present, they were all residential areas, and there were no single-family luxury houses like before the end of the world.

The residential area was the place players can officially settle in, and the commercial street next to it can be extended.

Shen Jufeng also saw that there were official residents in the city. In the evening, Lu Jiu mailed him asking him to go to the City Lord’s Mansion, saying that she had something to discuss.

Lu Jiu waited for Shen Jufeng to come. Seeing him, she patted the sofa next to her and said, “Sit down quickly.”

Shen Jufeng walked over slowly with long legs, and asked after sitting down: “What do you want to say, did you not go out at all today?”

She said before that she needs to kill more wild monsters to increase her attribute value.

“I didn’t go out. There is something that needs to be considered carefully. I will be absent-minded if I go out to clear the field.”

Shen Jufeng said: “Oh? Tell me what’s going on.”

Lu Jiu told him what the manager of the restaurant told her today, and Shen Jufeng understood after listening to her that this was indeed a reminder: “That is to remind you to directly upgrade the city-state this time.”

Shen Jufeng thinks this was a hurdle, a hurdle set for each city-state, and it will be upgraded to a third-level city-state in half a year. If the city-state was not upgraded to a third-level city-state, something bad will happen.

“Yes, and don’t you think it’s getting colder now, compared to the coolness of autumn before the end?”

This was her biggest guess. Even though the weather will gradually warm up at noon, it was really cold in the morning. Unfortunately, there was no weather forecast, otherwise, she wanted to know how many degrees it will be.
