After everyone ate and drank their fill, they couldn’t help but sigh at how good the food was. If they could eat such delicious food every day, it wouldn’t be bad to stay here for the rest of their lives.

While everyone was discussing, it was time to distribute the residence according to the name list.

Families had privilege to the house distribution, so w.a.n.g Fu’s family was a.s.signed to a separate apartment with a toilet.

The others stayed in four-person rooms or tents.

Because there were many people, even a four-person apartment was not enough.

No one knew the difference between a family apartment, a ma.s.s apartment, and a ma.s.s tent.

When w.a.n.g Fu’s family stood in front of the tall apartment building, they were dumbfounded.

They’re going to live in such a beautiful, big house?

It couldn’t be true, could it?

It was not only their family. The others were also dumbfounded. Some people even muttered in confusion, “How did the locals think of such a strange big house!”

“That’s right. There are windows on it one after another. It’s like a beehive. It looks quite good from afar, but it’s a little scary up close.”

Someone even thought of something and said eerily, “The house is squarish like a large coffin. These southern frontier people must have brought us in because they want to sacrifice us alive!”

As soon as he said that, the children immediately screamed in fear. Many women and men also felt that it made sense. They were so frightened that they trembled and did not dare to enter the building.

With them blocking the way, the people behind could not enter.

The soldier stepped forward and asked. The apartment manager in charge of settling them in sighed. “They’re afraid of being sacrificed alive and are unwilling to enter the building no matter what!”

If they were forced in, it would make these commoners panic even more and make them believe that there was something bad here.

When Cui s.h.i.+ze received the notice, he immediately walked to the front of the team and said firmly, “I’ll stay at the same place with you. If anything goes wrong, I’ll die with you!”

“However, the person who spread the rumors of a living sacrifice and caused everyone to panic will also be dealt with severely!”

Cui s.h.i.+ze seemed to be a high-ranking official. If he was going to move in with them, everyone would indeed feel much more at ease.

The woman, who had been talking nonsense just now, was so frightened that her hair stood on end. She was afraid that she would be pulled out in the next second.

Fortunately, everyone was willing to enter the building, so Cui s.h.i.+ze did not pursue matters with her.

This apartment had a total of five levels. w.a.n.g Fu’s family was a.s.signed to the fourth level.

The fourth level was more or less inauspicious. Thinking back to what the woman had said just now, Su Susu was a little afraid. Fortunately, the entrance of the apartment was facing the sun and was not gloomy at all.

They were led to the door of the room. The building manager handed them the key and taught them how to open the door.

When they entered the room, the family of three instantly widened their eyes.

There was a large bed in the one-bedroom apartmer. The seasonal bedding was prepared on the bed. It was all distributed according to the number of people. There was no need to worry about not having enough blankets.

There was also a clothes hanger in the room, a dining table in the living room, a mirror in the toilet, and a toilet bowl.

They touched an object and looked at another one. The snow-white wall made their curiosity peak.

The mirror that could reflect their pores clearly made them feel that the rumors were deceiving. The southern frontier was clearly rich and everyone could use such good gla.s.s!

Su Susu was afraid that she would anger the building manager if she asked too much, so she only asked the question she wanted to ask the most. “Auntie, the bucket in that small room is a toilet bucket, right? Why is it fixed to the ground? Then how can we pour away the filth?”

The building manager explained proudly, “This is called a toilet bowl. There’s a wrench at the back. When you pull it, water will automatically come out and the feces will wash down.”

“Let me also tell you today that you can’t throw anything into the toilet or the sink, not even your hair. If you block the pipe, you’ll have to pay to clear it yourself.”

Su Susu only planned to ask one question. Afraid that she would have to spend money to clear the pipeline, she could only brace herself and ask again, “Auntie, what’s a sink?”

The building manager was still quite patient. She led them to a counter outside the toilet and said, “This is the sink. When you turn the tap, water will come out.”

“You’re lucky. Many people haven’t even had time to install a tap in their a.s.signed apartments!”

Ming’er tried it and water flowed out of the pipe.

Their eyes widened and they held their breaths in surprise.

This was too magical.

Wouldn’t it be very convenient to wash clothes and cook in the future!

G.o.d, could it be that their hometown was the uncivilized place?

The water flowed smoothly. The building manager immediately turned off the tap and said to them sternly, “You can’t waste water. There’s a fee for this water.”

“Fee?”

They had yet to officially earn money, but they already had to pay a fee. The building manager’s words were like a basin of cold water that extinguished their excitement.

The building manager knew that these people were all poor people. She explained patiently, “It won’t cost much. For our family of eight, the water costs less than a tael of silver a month. Your family of three would probably only need 50 coins a month.”

Apart from the taels of silver provided by the Imperial Court, they also had a month’s salary in advance from Yu Suisheng. They had saved money along the way and still had two to five taels of silver in their hands.

The water fee of 50 coins was indeed not expensive. Su Susu’s worried heart was put back to her stomach. She was all smiles as she thanked the building manager for answering their questions.

If the window was closed while burning charcoal, one would be poisoned.

Therefore, charcoal burning was strictly prohibited in the room.

The building manager brought them outside again. They were taught how to cook in the corridor and how to use the coal stove. She repeatedly emphasized that they were not allowed to cook in the apartment again and only stopped nagging after receiving their a.s.surance.

It was so convenient to cook and use the toilet. Although the room was a little small, their family was already very satisfied.

In addition, the building manager also said to them, “Put your things away and come down to collect your clothes later. If you still lack anything, there’s a market and streets on the left side of the apartment. You can buy whatever you want.”

Su Susu and w.a.n.g Fu said in unison, “There’s also clothes?” “Is it free?”

The building manager said, “It’s free. Two sets per person, nothing more.”

Gosh, gosh, what kind of G.o.dly place was this!

Why didn’t they come to the southern frontier earlier!

This was too blissful!

Su Susu and her son stayed in the room to pack their few luggage. w.a.n.g Fu followed the building manager to collect their clothes. He asked, pretending to act casual, “Auntie, we probably have to pay for this house, right?”

Water and the honeycomb coal both cost money. w.a.n.g Fu felt that such a good house was definitely not for free.

The building manager said, “You have just arrived here. Considering your situation, the first month is free. You’ll be charged for the next month. The monthly rent is three taels of silver, but little brother, don’t worry. The monthly salary in our Carefree City is very high. You can also earn one tael of silver a month from ordinary jobs. As long as you’re willing to work hard to earn money, it’s not a problem to earn a few taels of silver a month.”

She added, “Our Great Empress is good. You have to thank her!”

w.a.n.g Fu readily accepted good advice. “I’m very grateful to the Great Empress, but what can I do to earn a few taels of silver?”

The building manager smiled and said, “You look well-built, so you should be quite strong. You can earn a lot of money by going to the mine or the stone or cement factories. When you earn money and buy the apartment, you won’t have to worry about paying rent in the future.. It’s very worth it!”
