Chapter 51: We Have Staff!!

After everyone got out of the car, the business vehicle that had appeared with the navigation service disappeared on the spot.

Those who didn’t understand the situation thought that among these people, there were so many space-type psychics.

It was only later that they realized—it was because the hotel navigation had been activated.

“Hey! Where are you going? You tricked us here and now you just leave us?”

Zhu Lanlan started causing trouble again.

But this time, no one paid her any attention.

Lu Hua’an was a decent person. Before entering Jianglin Hotel, Song Chengjun had given him a reminder.

Having already seen Chu Jiangyue’s extraordinary abilities, Lu Hua’an took Song Chengjun’s warning seriously. He immediately led a few obedient students to go hunt zombies.

Although most zombies near Jianglin Hotel had been cleared, occasionally one or two could still be found.

Back at Jianglin Hotel, Chu Jiangyue finally relaxed. This was where she belonged.

The teachers and students wanted to stay in Jianglin Hotel but would have to go back out to find items or kill zombies. Chu Jiangyue, therefore, didn’t wait for them at Building 2 and returned to her cabin to freshen up.

When she came out again, it was already an hour later.

She had changed into a clean short skirt and boots, styled her hair into soft waves—once again a delicate “piggy girl” look.

By the time she arrived at Building 2, quite a few people were waiting for her.

Earlier, when going out, Chu Jiangyue had worn a temperature-regulating suit, similar to the men like Shen Zhigui, with her hair tied in a bun.

Now, dressed in a delicate skirt and with her hair styled, the students and teachers were practically seeing a miracle transformation.

“This is… Boss Lady?”

No makeup on her face, lips naturally red—was this truly human beauty?

Even Zhu Lanlan was stunned. When she came back to her senses, all she felt was jealousy.

“Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Seeing people waiting, Chu Jiangyue felt a bit embarrassed. She had thought they would be gone for a long time, but they had returned so quickly.

“It’s fine, we just got back ourselves. Boss Lady, you’re so pretty!”

The girl’s eyes sparkled as if carrying stars when looking at Chu Jiangyue.

“Thank you, you’re pretty too.”

Even though the girl looked a little dirty after some time without washing, Chu Jiangyue could tell she had been well-raised—there was still a hint of baby fat left.

“Line up. Rooms are limited, first come, first served.”

Even though she liked the girl, Chu Jiangyue didn’t give her any preferential treatment.

Those wanting to stay at Jianglin Hotel quickly rushed forward to claim spots, while those heading to the base weren’t in a hurry.

If not for Song Chengjun telling them, even at the base they would need identity cards—they might not even want to get one.

Zhu Lanlan was one of them.

Jealous of Chu Jiangyue’s beauty and comfortable life, she didn’t want to spend money at the hotel to contribute to Chu Jiangyue’s business.

But Chu Jiangyue had no idea about this. She wouldn’t pay attention to someone insignificant for no reason.

The little fox had shown no reaction, proving these people were unnamed extras in its script.

The girl ran quickly to Chu Jiangyue and snagged the second spot—the first was Lu Hua’an.

“This is the exchange device. Place the items you want to exchange on the tray.”

Lu Hua’an put the jewelry he had found and the zombie crystal cores he collected on the tray.

**[Detected: low-purity metal *2, jade 2, level 1 zombie crystal cores 20. Can be exchanged for 50 silver coins. Confirm: Yes / No]

Without hesitation, Lu Hua’an pressed yes. In the next second, he received his identity card and 50 silver coin balance.

50 silver coins—neither much nor little—was enough to support him living in Jianglin Hotel for a while.

“I’d like a single room, please.”

“All standard single rooms are gone. Only deluxe singles remain—2 silver coins per day. How many days?”

“10 days.”

If possible, Lu Hua’an wanted to find his family. So many days had passed; he didn’t know how they were doing.

“20 silver coins. Place your identity card here to pay.”

Every time new guests arrived, Chu Jiangyue had to explain the process again. She was starting to get a little tired of it.

She wondered if she could hire staff.

Lu Hua’an glanced at the identity card and, following Chu Jiangyue’s instructions, swiped it to pay.

“All set. Room 601. Enter the elevator, swipe your card, and it will automatically take you to your floor. Swipe again at your room to enter.”

Lu Hua’an nodded in understanding.

“Boss Lady! Here’s what I want to exchange.”

The girl smiled at Chu Jiangyue and pulled out several items from her backpack.

Still, Lu Hua’an’s exchange amount was higher.

Through the hotel’s records, Chu Jiangyue learned the girl’s name—Shang Yue.

The moment Shang Yue received her identity card, her eyes lit up.

“Boss Lady, I’ll stay 20 days too.”

Chu Jiangyue quickly helped her complete check-in. Spending 20 silver coins drained her balance instantly.

Her eyes showed a flicker of pain, but she refused to skimp on food or lodging.

In the end, 56 rooms were gradually filled. Others who wanted to stay at Jianglin Hotel groaned.

But they had no choice—they could only get identity cards and wait for Song Chengjun to take them to the B City safe base.

After handling the teachers and students, Chu Jiangyue finally had some free time. She opened her panel to check zombie crystal core task rewards.

[Task: Host to complete zombie crystal core collection task (235/100) – Completed]
**Task Reward: Overachievement bonus – Mango tree sapling 1, Management-type robot 1, EXP +1000

[Current hotel level: 3 (7150/10000)]

Seeing the management-type robot, Chu Jiangyue’s eyes lit up—like having a pillow delivered just when she wanted to nap.

The staff she wanted had arrived.

Chu Jiangyue returned to her cabin and took the robot out of her system backpack.

Looking at the robot, which looked almost indistinguishable from a human, she paused in thought.

“Unit 018 management robot at your service. Please assign a name, Master.”

This magnetic voice—was it really from a robot?

Chu Jiangyue thought quietly: “Chu Jiangyang.”

Since it was her employee, naturally, it would take her surname.

“Name registered successfully. Official startup… Master!”

“No, just call me Boss. Master feels weird.”

This wasn’t some fantasy world with master-servant contracts.

“Understood, Boss.”

Chu Jiangyue was satisfied.

“Our office lobby isn’t set up yet. Find some time to arrange it.

Also…”

Chu Jiangyue began assigning tasks to Chu Jiangyang.
