Chapter 39: 39

Using Food As Rent

The entire house was still in a rough state without any decoration. Windows and anti-theft doors were installed. Perhaps due to the extreme heat, the windows were not floor-to-ceiling but just ordinary-sized windows.

The glass must be made of special material. Otherwise, it would have cracked after being exposed to such a high temperature.

There was no toilet in the bathroom. It was a squat toilet and there was a faucet that could be connected to water. There was only one separate faucet in the kitchen, and there was a solar-powered light strip on the roof of each room. Looking at the layout of the room, Du Yue suddenly thought of a decoration style that used to be popular on the internet. She thought to herself, ‘This is probably what they’re talking about, right?’

However, it was a special period now, so Du Yue was satisfied enough to have such a neat house. “How much is the monthly rent?”

“The base doesn’t have cash in circulation. The common currency in circulation is contribution points. The monthly rent for this house is 100 contribution points. If you don’t have any contribution points, you can use food to pay for the rent.”

Du Yue nodded thoughtfully and told the man that she would pay with food.

The two of them returned to the house rental center after reading the housing register. Du Yue used her 50 kilograms of rice and all the dried vegetables and mushrooms she had brought to pay for two months of rent.

These were the freshest supplies that Du Yue had brought with her. Otherwise, they would only be enough to cover a month’s rent.

After Du Yue signed the contract and got the key to the house, she walked out of the house rental center and got into her car.

It was almost three o’clock now, and there was only an hour left before the sun would rise. Du Yue had to move all the supplies in her car to the seventh floor before dawn and find a parking space for her car.

Du Yue drove the car to the apartment building. She silently gave a sigh of relief and began moving the supplies to the seventh floor.

The floors below the seventh floor were all lit up, and it seemed like people had already moved in. Only the seventh floor, which Du Yue rented, was not lit up. She was probably the first on the floor to move in.

Someone might be secretly watching her, so she did not dare to use her space to move her things. Hence, she chose the stupidest and most primitive way.

As a result, Du Yue kept taking things out of her interspace and placing them in the car. She then took them out of the car again and again, taking great pains to carry them upstairs.

The more supplies she carried upstairs in front of everyone, the more supplies she could enjoy in the future.

It was the darkest hour of the day, and Du Yue had parked the car in the darkness at the edge. Even if someone was secretly monitoring her every move, they would not be able to see how many supplies she had in the car.

After years of practicing martial arts, Du Yue’s physical fitness and endurance far exceeded that of ordinary people. Otherwise, she would not have been able to persist after going back and forth so many times to transport supplies.

When she felt that she had moved all the necessary items, Du Yue got into the car and drove to the nearby parking lot.

There was a large parking lot at the entrance of the base, and there was a small parking lot next to the apartment. There should be parking lots in other places as well.

After all, the base covered a large area. If the residents had to walk everywhere, it would be really tiring.

There was also a canopy above the parking lot, but no matter how good the canopy was, it would be of little use in such a high temperature. However, it was better than nothing.

Du Yue parked the car and stood in front of it to observe the surroundings. After some thought, she took out an oil barrel and drained the gasoline from the car, pouring it into the barrel. She then sneaked home.

When Du Yue entered the house, the sky was already starting to brighten up. She could see the layout of the room clearly without using a flashlight.

Du Yue did not have the time to arrange the supplies. She took out an anti-theft lock from her space and replaced the existing lock.

Before she came here, she did not know how many people had used the key to come in. Only by personally changing the lock could she live here without worry.

However, the anti-theft door was still a little thin. Du Yue planned to live here for a while and familiarize herself with the base. After that, she would find a stronger iron fence door from her space when no one was paying attention. With an extra layer of protection, she would be safer.

After installing the new lock, Du Yue locked the door from the inside and installed blackout curtains on the windows. By the time Du Yue was done with her work, the sun was already halfway up the sky.
