Chapter 104: Chapter 069: Looking Forward to a New Life

Lord Mansion.

Yun Juncai was in line with two children for identity registration, having left Yuxi Village with them. After arriving at Hope Village, the children clung tightly to him, and he couldn’t bear to leave them alone, so he had brought them himself.

"What are your names?" Yun Juncai asked in a gentle voice while they were in line.

"Xiao Jia, Xiao An." The two blinked and responded.

"Last names?"

The response he received was a look of bewildered innocence.

"In that case, how about you take my surname?" Yun Juncai suggested.

"Mmm." Both children agreed without hesitation.

When it was their turn, Yun Juncai registered them as Yun Jia and Yun An. After the registration was complete, he first took them to the tailor shop to buy clothes, then skipped the steps of buying or renting a house, and went directly to a restaurant.

The restaurant was bustling with people.

As they entered, the residents who had arrived before them were already voraciously eating and drinking like starving ghosts.

"Mmm, mmm, finally got some good food."

"Yeah! The food in Yuxi Village felt like it was just to fill the stomach."

"The thing is, it’s delicious and not expensive! I thought 3 copper coins for a bun was cheap, but it could be even cheaper."

"Indeed, to fill one’s stomach for less than 5 copper coins, they didn’t lie to me."

"Came to the right place, definitely did."

"Boo hoo, hate that I didn’t come earlier."

"..."

Listening to these voices, Yun Juncai laughed; he knew that after arriving in Hope Village, these people would easily blend in.

Yun Juncai took Yun Jia and Yun An to the food service window.

"Two sets of new utensils, please."

"Sure thing."

Soon, Yun Juncai handed each of the children a bamboo plate, a pair of bamboo chopsticks, a bamboo spoon, and a bamboo bowl.

"These will be your utensils from now on; take good care of them."

"Mmm."

"Now, let’s see what you want to eat," said Yun Juncai.

The two tilted their tiptoes to peer over the counter.

Seeing the adorable looks on the children, the elderly lady at the window couldn’t help but smile kindly.

"That one, that one," the kids each pointed to a dish.

"Add a potato pork rib stew for them!"

"Alrighty." The old lady said, and when serving the dish, she ladled a generous full portion, particularly heavy on the ribs.

The children saw the abundance and their eyes widened.

"Say thank you," Yun Juncai instructed, patting their heads.

"Thank you."

"You’re welcome."

Some people in line saw this and quickly approached the old lady, "Aunty, I’ll have a serving of the potato pork ribs too."

The lady saw his intent, and as she scooped, her hand trembled, accidentally dropping a few pieces.

The man, seeing this, shook his head and muttered about favoritism but still took his plate and left.

This scene made Yun Juncai unconsciously smile, and then he let the two kids carry their own food to a spot that was vacated nearby.

The two little guys hadn’t had a proper meal in a long while; looking at the full plates in front of them, they dove in headfirst.

After they finished eating, Yun Juncai bought some hot water, then took them toward the residential area, stopping by the trading area where he went straight to Meng Chengzhou’s stall.

The trading area was generally overcrowded, and Meng Chengzhou’s stall was particularly so.

"I need to buy a bed."

"Are there any beds left?"

"Do you have wooden basins?"

"Is there a bigger one?"

"..."

Meng Chengzhou looked at the crowded people in front of him and said directly, "We have them, don’t worry. We have ample supply, everyone please line up! An orderly line will make the transactions more efficient."

Knowing that the territory was welcoming new people, they had been working overtime for the past few days, especially since he had hired a Professional whose efficiency was very high.

This meant that a large sum of money would be coming in.

Thinking about it, Meng Chengzhou’s eyebrows were filled with joy.

Listening to his words, the line indeed started to form properly, but the falling snowflakes, despite most people shielding themselves with umbrellas, still made everyone shiver from the cold.

"It’s too cold, I want to go home and take a warm bath right away."

"I just bought new thermal clothes, I’m reluctant to put them on until after I’ve taken a bath, otherwise I feel like it’s a waste of clothes."

"Since the Doomsday began, I haven’t really had a proper bath!"

"Hehe, now that I have my own house, I can bathe properly."

"This really is the right place."

"I think so too, because the prices here are allowing my nearly empty pockets a chance to breathe."

"I hope the weather returns to normal tomorrow, so I can go out and make some money!"

"..."

Clearly, the weather was cold, but many hearts there were warm.

Watching this scene, Yun Juncai felt even happier.

Compared to Yuxi Village, he truly liked Hope Village.

From the beginning, this territory had provided everyone with a stable environment.

When everyone’s basic needs were satisfied, there was no room for scheming and manipulation!

After all, most people were just thinking about living well.

Lost in these thoughts, the line quickly moved to Yun Juncai.

"What do you need?"

"A bunk bed, toiletries."

Meng Chengzhou responded and glanced at the two children beside Yun Juncai before saying directly, "I’ll give you a 20% discount."

They must be children brought back from Yuxi Village, children rarely seen since after the Doomsday Game began; it was unclear whether they hadn’t entered the Doomsday Game or hadn’t survived it, but he hoped it was the former.

"Thank you," Yun Juncai unhesitatingly accepted.

He then bought some Beast Skin blankets and other items from a nearby stall. Once everything was purchased, he headed home.

Although Yun Juncai had a tough time when he arrived at Hope Village, he had still spent his savings to buy a house, which to him was a form of security.

He initially thought about renting out half of it later, but now with the two little ones, that wasn’t necessary.

As soon as he got home, Yun Juncai placed the bunk bed in a corner of the room, laid out the bedding, and said to Yun Jia and Xiao’an, "This will be your bed from now on; it’s cold today, so you will have to share."

"It’s okay." Both children looked at the bed with a hint of gratitude in their eyes.

With such conditions, which they couldn’t have even imagined, how could they be picky!

"Let’s go now! I’ll give you a bath!" Saying this, Yun Juncai took them to the bathroom, washed them thoroughly, changed them into new clothes, and let them sleep in the bed.

Maybe they were tired, as soon after touching the bed, the two little ones fell into a deep sleep.

Watching them sleep, Yun Juncai lit a fire in a corner of his room and slightly opened a window on the other side.

The room gradually warmed up.

That night, Yun Jia and Xiao’an didn’t wake up freezing and didn’t go to bed hungry, sleeping the most comfortable and reassuring sleep since the Doomsday began.

Other residents from Yuxi Village also went to sleep warmed by the same sentiment.

They gambled on coming here, all looking forward to a different, new life starting tomorrow.
