Surviving the Long Night: Starting from the Gas Station and Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 79 showcases the free warehouse expansion.

Jiang Xin's request was exactly what Lu Sheng had expected. He knew very well that the Jiang family definitely had their own intelligence network and knew that he was somewhat different from other architects.

This uniqueness led to an extremely fast construction speed, which was the basis for their investment in this camp.

Now, Jiang Xin wants to confirm for his family whether the intelligence presented on his desk is true or false.

Do you have any personal belongings? Anything is fine, just give it to me.

Lu Sheng reached out his hand to Jiang Xin, who thought for a moment and then looked outside:

"In the car."

So Lu Sheng and he left the house together and headed to the truck. After leaving the house, they bumped into Jiang Shutong who was rushing over.

"What are you doing here?"

"Go back to the car and get something. You go inside and wait for us."

Lu Sheng explained something to Jiang Shutong, who didn't ask any further questions, politely nodded to Jiang Xin, and passed by them.

"That was the person you were dealing with just now, Jiang Shutong, who is in charge of the camp's commercial activities."

"Yes, I recognize her voice. She's the one who came to the forest farm."

Lu Sheng was in front, and Jiang Xin was behind. The two arrived at the truck one after the other. Jiang Xin stepped onto the truck's footboard, climbed into the cab, and took out something wrapped in a black cloth.

After he came down, he lifted the black cloth in front of Lu Sheng, revealing a revolver.

It differs somewhat from the standard design of Lu Sheng, featuring patterns unique to the Jiang Group.

"It's my coming-of-age ceremony, but I don't have many opportunities to use it. There aren't many people in my daily life who can hurt me, and even fewer who will hurt me."

Jiang Xin handed the gun to Lu Sheng, who waved the gun to signal him to follow.

Lu Sheng stopped in his tracks as he passed the entrance to the gas station.

"Let's stay here."

He turned around, raised his hand, and held the gun in his palm.

Jiang Xin didn't understand what he was going to do when he saw streaks of light fly out of the warehouse and merge into the gun.

The pistol then slowly floated into the air, disassembled and reassembled in a faint white light, transforming into a brand new, more refined revolver.

"You haven't used it in so long that you didn't even notice it was broken. Now I've fixed it for you."

The reconstructed pistol fell into Lu Sheng's hands, and then Lu Sheng handed it to Jiang Xin.

Jiang Xin took the gun and examined it carefully; he found it somewhat unbelievable.

He had seen builders who were good at modifying small objects, but this was the first time he had seen one so fast.

Lu Sheng's methods and the intelligence he presented to his family matched perfectly.

"It's truly unbelievable. I'm so glad that this power only awakened after the Lu family exiled you; otherwise, the Jiang family would probably have had another formidable enemy."

"Look at what you're saying! I also have the surname Lu. How can you conclude from your words that I have a bad relationship with the Lu family?"

Hearing Lu Sheng's words, Jiang Yan smiled:

"As fellow family members, let's not pretend to be company people. In a family, nepotism is common. If someone is a valued relative, they will be kept in a core position by your side."

Those who were sent to remote areas, those who were assigned to the front lines, were merely the vanguard, bearing the risks for those who followed.

"To say something like that, you must have quite a story to tell."

Lu Sheng clicked his tongue and didn't ask any further questions:

"Let's go, we still have business to discuss."

Later, the two returned to Cheng Qiushui's house. After witnessing Lu Sheng's methods, Jiang Xin had no more doubts about the deal.

In front of everyone, he returned the deposit that Jiang Shutong had already paid.

"This timber is a gift of goodwill from the Jiang family. We admire the builders of the wilderness. Without such people, human civilization would not be able to recover even in ten thousand years."

Formal transactions will begin with the next one. I will be stationed here, sharing the joys and sorrows with everyone. If you need timber, furniture, or any other wood-related business, please feel free to contact me anytime.

After saying this, he looked at Lu Sheng again:

"Please arrange a shop like this for me. I will open a small shop here as my base."

Lu Sheng nodded; this was nothing more than a small favor for him.

"In that case, Commissioner Jiang, you and Shu Tong can finalize the details of the transaction. I'll take some people to unload the goods from the truck."

After unloading the goods, I'll come and arrange your shop. You can choose one from this row; it doesn't matter if it's a bit run-down, I'll take care of it.

Jiang Xin nodded, then watched Lu Sheng leave.

The timber on the truck was all large and thick logs. Lu Sheng judged that it would be troublesome to have workers unload the goods, so he called Meng Lingshi.

"Brother, I'm still a child, a girl. Making me do hard labor so late at night, what if I don't grow tall?"

"It's just this one thing, you can sleep in tomorrow morning if you want."

Although Meng Lingshi was reluctant, after Lu Sheng gave him a casual reply, he still went to the truck and activated his super transformation form.

In an instant, the black and red cubes reassembled into a crane, with an octopus-like mechanical arm at the front.

As the robotic arm descends and grabs the timber on the truck, the cable connecting the boom and the robotic arm begins to retract, lifting all the bundled logs up.

The quantity of these logs was quite large, exceeding one hundred units in Lu Sheng's eyes. To ensure their proper preservation, Lu Sheng instructed Meng Lingshi to place them at the entrance of the primary warehouse.

While the timber was slowly descending, he used an electric cart to move some steel from the gas station warehouse.

He needs a larger warehouse to store this large quantity of timber.

"Basic Warehouse, consumes 3 units of steel and 3 units of wood, can be upgraded to Basic Warehouse lv1."

Lu Sheng reached out and lightly tapped the text. The steel he had brought, the remaining wood next to him, and some wood from the log pile all turned into streams of light and flowed into the warehouse.

"The primary warehouse is about to be upgraded to primary warehouse level 1. The scale has been increased, the height has been improved, and the structure has been upgraded. Please select the enhancement attribute:"

1. High-efficiency ventilation: Improved warehouse ventilation system to ensure that stored items do not get damp or moldy. The improved ventilation device is a mechanical mechanism that requires manual switching.

2. High-efficiency insulation: Improved warehouse insulation layer enhances insulation effect, enabling the storage of goods sensitive to temperature changes.

3. Bigger is better: Without making any improvements, the warehouse size will be increased by an additional 50%.

Lu Sheng chose the third option without hesitation, and the light reconstructed the warehouse, creating a large warehouse in its original location with expanded length, width, and height.

When the light faded and Meng Lingshi returned to her original form, she suddenly realized that the log she had placed at the warehouse entrance was gone. She looked left and right, but couldn't find it anywhere.

"Don't bother looking, nothing's missing."

Lu Sheng took the key from the doorknob of the warehouse door and opened the door again in front of her. Through the door, she saw the wood neatly stacked inside.
