Hongtang waved the flyer in her hand.

"According to the redemption standards, each bag of instant noodles is worth 5 points. A box of 10 catties of 90-pack compressed biscuits is worth 200 points. I have two boxes of instant noodles, each with 36 bags, and two boxes of compressed biscuits, which can be redeemed for a total of 760 points."

With two boxes of instant noodles and compressed biscuits, Hongtang could pay two months' rent and still have 160 points left. She thought it was a good deal. Anyway, she had plenty of those two things in her storage space, and she didn't eat them anyway.

However, exchanging grain for points is not a good idea. One pound of rice can be exchanged for one point, but one pound of rice can last a long time.

However, Hongtang guessed that the rice being exchanged here was probably not the high-quality rice from before the apocalypse, but rather broken rice or something similar.

She wasn't sure about the quality of the various supplies available for exchange at the base yet; she would find out after moving in.

"The things are in my car. If you want them, I'll take you back to the housing rental center right now."

"Okay, no problem. I can also help you pay your water and electricity bills. If you need it, we can do it together later."

"Okay."

After sending the middle-aged man back to the housing rental center, Hongtang took some broken rice, rice bran, ham sausage, dried vegetables and other supplies, and exchanged them for a total of 1000 points. After paying two months' rent and depositing 200 points for water, electricity and heating, she still had 200 points left.

Hongtang sighed inwardly, "Points really don't last long."

The middle-aged man was very happy to have obtained a batch of supplies, saying that Hongtang could also contact him to exchange for supplies in the future, and he would guarantee her the highest price.

"Let's talk about the future later," Hongtang agreed perfunctorily, and the middle-aged man didn't seem to care.

He closed a big deal today, and his performance for the month is secure. His monthly salary is only 90 points, and he lives in the employee dormitory, which also costs 10 points a month. But this one deal will earn him 100 points, enough to cover his food and lodging for the next few months.

Hongtang was naturally unaware of these things. She had been living in seclusion since the extreme heat began and was not very clear about the situation outside. With plenty of food and drink, she was unaware that most of the survivors were now struggling to make ends meet.

Even if she found out, there was nothing she could do. She didn't know how long she could stay here, so she decided to settle down first and see how things went.

Back at her new place, Hongtang used her mental energy to check if there were any surveillance or listening devices in the room, thankfully none.

Then she sensed the residents of the entire building. There were signs of people living on the first to third floors and across from her own apartment, but no one was there now. Perhaps they were all out on missions or working at the base.

The fourth and fifth floors are still empty. According to the middle-aged man, they are probably reserved for certain types of people, such as high-end elites.

After confirming there were no safety hazards in the room, Hongtang went downstairs and carried her things up from the car. She also took out some grains, oils, food, simple furniture, and other daily necessities from her spatial storage, thus confirming that she had made proper arrangements.

Before she could even move a few times, another group of people started charging her for parking, requiring 30 points a month. Hongtang hadn't seen the parking fee rules in the management regulations, but adhering to the principle of avoiding trouble, she paid for a month's fee first.

By the time everything was moved, Hongtang was covered in sweat. After parking the car, she drained most of the fuel, leaving only a little, to prevent anyone from stealing it at night.

After returning to her room and locking the door, Hongtang released Ha Ge from the spatial dimension.

"Brother Ha, this is our new home. See if you like it."

HaGe rubbed against HongTang's palm, meowed, and then ran off to patrol the room.

It seems the little guy is family-oriented.

Hongtang temporarily ignored Ha Ge, gave it food and water, and then slipped into her spatial dimension to take a good bath.

Although the room had heating and running water and electricity, the temperature was not high, only around -20°C, considering that it was over -60°C outside.

By the time I finished showering, it was already 6 p.m., and the house was still a mess and in dire need of tidying up.

You need to be well-fed to have the energy to work.

Hongtang took out the peach blossom noodles she had stocked up on in Jincheng from her spatial storage, along with a plate of dry-fried green beans and sweet and sour pork ribs, and ate them all up.

The heater was already out, and by the time we finished eating, the room was already warm and cozy.

Using my mental powers, I sensed that people across the street and downstairs were gradually returning home, and lights were turning on in the neighboring buildings. It seemed I needed to speed up my tidying up.

First, hang up the curtains in both bedrooms and the living room, and then put on a privacy film tomorrow.

Just as she finished hanging the curtains, Hongtang sensed a fluctuation of mental energy coming from across the hall.

It seemed that her release of mental energy had aroused suspicion. However, she wasn't worried; as long as she didn't use her energy, others wouldn't know she was a superhuman.

Sister: Host, is it possible that the other party didn't notice your mental energy probe just now?

A person with psychic abilities, that's quite impressive.

If the other party probes back at you the moment you release your spiritual power, you must give them a "spiritual thorn" to let them know that the majesty of the strong cannot be challenged.

Yes, the person opposite is a man.

He was dressed entirely in black, even in his own home, and wore a mask. However, Hongtang could still see his true face through her spiritual power.

Well, he's alright looking, but he doesn't seem like a good person; he's eerie and dangerous.

Even if you can afford to offend them, it's best to avoid dealing with them as much as possible.

After choosing a room to use as a bedroom, Hongtang began to arrange the bed, storage cabinets and other furniture.

Outdoor tables and chairs were placed in the living room. As for the kitchen, there was no gas; cooking had to be done with electricity. Hongtang brought out the cookware she used in the stone house again.

As for the other room, Hongtang plans to turn it into a workout room. Even in a new environment, she needs to pick up physical exercise again.

The room was fairly clean when I booked it. Hongtang only mopped the floor once and wiped the rest of the room with a cloth.

She was too tired today and wanted to rest early.

Ha Ge naturally shared a room with her. The two of them went back into the space to take a bath before finally ending their day's work.

Tengteng and Sisi sent them into the space to absorb the energy water and quickly advance their levels. They would release them again when they went out later.

Once in bed, lying on the thick lambswool blanket, with the heater on, the whole room was warm and cozy, and Hongtang felt relaxed and happy.

This blanket was a really good deal! She bought it at Metro when the extreme heat hit; it was heavily discounted to 150 yuan, and she bought two.

"Brother Ha, come here." Hongtang patted the person next to her, and Brother Ha jumped up onto the bed in a flash, his head rubbing against her palm, making a "gurgling" sound in his throat.

Hongtang felt the bed shake a few times; the little guy had gotten fatter again.

However, it's reassuring that Ha Ge doesn't shed any fur.

Hongtang tapped Ha Ge's wet little nose, "From now on, we'll add one more thing to the daily training."

So before going to sleep, Brother Ha trained alone for another five minutes.

"Brother Ha, turn off the lights!"

"Snapped!"

Vision goes black, go to sleep.
