Chapter 72 Two copper coins won't buy you a scam, but they can save your life.

As soon as the cold system prompt sounded, the public channel completely exploded.

[Jinghai Dormitory Building Chat Channel 54988/65131 people]

"8th Floor-576-Qiu Yangwei (tenant): Damn it! The door of the Dormitory across from me was smashed! I saw with my own eyes all six people inside being eaten by zombies!"

"2nd Floor-313-Sun Feipeng (landlord): It's over, it's all over. I almost didn't make it last night. I'm definitely going to die tonight..."

"5th Floor-461-Li Zhijun (tenant): Holy crap, the total death count has already exceeded ten thousand?! This is only after two midnights!"

"10th Floor-401-Gao Fei (landlord): Is anyone on the same floor forming a team to clear the zombies in the corridor? If we don't clear them, everyone will die tonight!"

"3rd Floor-598-Chen Mo (tenant): Are you crazy? Try to touch one of those zombies in the corridor? You'll probably wake up all the zombies in the entire corridor instantly!"

Wailing, despair, fear...

All kinds of negative emotions instantly drowned the entire channel.

On the first night, people found that as long as they didn't make a lot of noise, zombies generally wouldn't actively attack the Dormitory.

On the second night, most of the players without a Dormitory outside died, and zombies randomly attacked Dormitories.

But the attacks didn't last, and most people could still get through it.

But tonight, the third night...

Not to mention whether the desire to attack will increase, with the number of zombies doubled, wouldn't they easily break open the Dormitory doors?!

Clearing the corridor is the only way to survive.

But who would dare to clear it?

In the narrow corridor, facing the dense sleeping zombie horde, any slight movement could trigger a chain reaction, instantly submerging them in the zombie tide.

This is simply a dead end.

Inside Dormitory 404 on the 4th Floor.

Jiang Yuwan looked at the information in the channel, then looked up at Su Ze.

"Now is the best time."

Su Ze was drinking the beef porridge handed to him by Yao Qingya, and nodded at the remark.

"Post it."

Jiang Yuwan immediately posted a message she had already edited in the channel.

[4th Floor-404-Jiang Yuwan (tenant): Dormitory 404, to help more people overcome this difficulty, all materials will be supplied in limited quantities and for a limited time, starting now.]

[Wood material: Each person is limited to 25 pieces per purchase;]

[Iron Material: Each person is limited to 12 pieces per purchase;]

[Sales are open at 12 PM, 5 PM, and 10 PM daily, for one hour each time.]

[Additionally: An extra purchase can be made this morning, also limited in quantity and for one hour.]

"10th Floor-113-Zhang Shuling (tenant): Damn! Still limiting quantities? Boss Su Ze, are you trying to kill us?! My door's durability is only 2 points left!"

"8th Floor-164-Zhang Wei (landlord): Exactly, a bunch of ungrateful people, if you have the guts, go find it yourselves! Yesterday you cursed Su Ze for being black-hearted, today you still have to beg him to buy things?"

"5th Floor-343-Huang Yang (landlord): Be content! It's good that the price hasn't increased! Boss is already very conscientious!"

"7th Floor-589-Zhao Li (landlord): Exactly! It's good enough to be able to buy it, what more do you want? I'm going to trade now!"

"10th Floor-561-Li Weizong (tenant): Limited quantity is limited quantity, it's better than not being able to buy it. Besides, it's not like all of you have at least seventy copper coins in your hands right now."

Although most people complained, their actions were not slow at all.

Those with copper coins planned to buy immediately.

Su Ze slowly drank his porridge, completely ignoring the clamor in the channel.

He opened his panel, leisurely edited a message, and sent it out casually.

[4-404-Su Ze (landlord): Introducing a new service: clearing sleeping zombies in the corridor, costing 2 copper coins per Dormitory.]

[Interested floors do not need to come specifically; they only need to pay an additional two copper coins when trading on the 4th Floor and leave their Dormitory number and floor.]

[I will prioritize clearing the floor with the most paid Dormitories.]

After sending it, he took another sip of porridge, felt it was lacking something, and added another sentence.

[Supplement: After clearing, Dormitories on the same floor that have not paid should do so as soon as possible. Otherwise, cleaning services will no longer be provided for that floor the next day.]

This message was like a depth charge.

The public channel, which had just been incredibly noisy, fell eerily silent for three seconds.

The next second, an unprecedented information frenzy instantly Burst!

"6th Floor-601-Qian Wenqiang (landlord): Holy crap?! Did I see that right?"

"9th Floor-952-Zhou Zechong (landlord) Clearing the corridor?! Really?! Boss Su Ze, are you crazy?!"

"7th Floor-562-Hu Weimin (tenant): copper coins?! Boss Su Ze, you're not kidding, are you! 2 copper coins! That's the price to kill just one zombie!!"

"6th Floor-135-Li Zhengting (tenant): This is... this is charity!"

"8th Floor-898-Cheng Yong (landlord): Boss! I'll pay! I'll go pay immediately! I'll pay for our Dormitory first! Please come to the sixth floor first!"

"2nd Floor-213-Sun Xiaoli (landlord): God Su! Dad! I'm calling you Dad! Please come to the second floor first! Several Dormitories on our floor died last night! I'm kowtowing to you! Bang bang bang!"

"6th Floor-842-Lu Zhi (landlord): Two yuan can't buy you a loss or a scam, but it can buy us a dog's life! God Su is mighty!!"

For a time, the address for Su Ze in the channel directly jumped from "Boss" to "God Su."

Just 2 copper coins to clear the zombies at the door can prevent these zombies and the newly spawned zombies tonight from rushing the Dormitory together...

Safety is greatly improved!

Everyone can calculate this account!

Su Ze watched the frantic screen-filling scene with no expression, simply finishing the last mouthful of porridge in his bowl.

Clearing the corridor?

For him, it was the best possible monster-grinding spot.

The long, narrow terrain meant zombies could only come from one direction, perfectly limiting the numerical advantage of the zombie tide, allowing him to slaughter with maximum efficiency.

Killing from one end of the corridor to the other, isn't this more efficient than running around killing zombies in all directions outside?

As for charging 2 copper coins...

There are at least several thousand Dormitories still alive in this building.

Two copper coins per Dormitory, even if only half of a floor survives, that's nearly a thousand copper coins in income.

Clearing all ten floors once, the service fee alone would be a huge sum.

Not to mention the copper coins dropped by killing the zombies themselves.

This allows him to quickly accumulate wealth.

And also to challenge the Ten Thousand Zombie Slayer achievement.

He can also take the opportunity to show off his strength in front of everyone, making those who owe installment loans not dare to have any ulterior motives.

Most importantly, the leeks cannot all die.

If they all die, who would he trade with?

Killing multiple birds with one stone.

He is not a savior at all; he is just a shrewd farmer, maintaining his vegetable patch.

"Ding-dong."

Just then, a faint knocking sound came from outside the Dormitory door.

"Boss Su Ze, we're here."

It was Liu Yuanfang's voice.

Su Ze put down his bowl and stood up.

Liu Qiaofei immediately nimbly moved the supply boxes blocking the door.

As the door opened, Liu Yuanfang and the nearly thirty girls behind her stood neatly at the doorway.

Their faces were pale, and their eyes showed the fatigue of staying up all night.

But they stood ramrod straight, their gazes at Su Ze filled with reverence and trust.

"Boss Su Ze, we're here."

"Please... give today's instructions!"
