Chapter 229 The 229th Day of Wanting to Be a Lazy Person
"Haoyue, are you all ready? We're about to set off." Li Xingyu straightened her slightly disheveled skirt and turned to smile at Haoyue, Xiao Hei, and Bai Xi on the sofa.
"Meow~ (Okay, we're here.)" Hearing Li Xingyu's urging, Haoyue and the others got off the sofa and walked out the door with Li Xingyu and the others.
It has been almost half a month since Li Xingyu and his group last went out, and the company they chose for the location has been built.
Today, Li Xingyu and his team are all out to check out their company. If everything is alright, they'll start setting up and recruiting.
Because she had promised Haoyue and the others that she would take the three of them with her if she went out, Li Xingyu went to wake them up early in the morning.
It's already August, the hottest time of the year.
A month and a half has passed since Li Xingyu arrived here.
There is still a little over a week left in the growth period.
Although he didn't know what would happen after the growth period was completed, nor how the interstellar community observed whether the growth period had ended, Li Xingyu didn't pay much attention to it.
Because Li Xingyu had already learned from Qingyao and Hanqing that since she came here after her soul had reached adulthood, the growth period here did not have a significant impact on her.
The reason why Li Xingyu was particularly eager to get close to people a while ago was because of this relatively minor impact.
However, as time went on, Li Xingyu was able to control her desires a week after the start of her growth period, which is why things have been so calm since then.
After arriving here, Qingyao and Hanqing erected a protective shield for Li Xingyu's soul.
Although the world's consciousness here is on Li Xingyu's side, it will help cover for him if anything happens.
However, it's best to avoid any unexpected situations before Li Xingyu understands what happened; the choice is entirely hers.
However, all of these things were described in the document. Li Xingyu only glanced at some of the more important parts, thought there were no problems, and then left it there.
If Li Xingyu hadn't thought about the growth period a couple of days ago, she probably wouldn't have asked Qingyao and Hanqing such questions.
Li Xingyu was very satisfied with Qingyao and Hanqing's actions.
Although she has now moved to a different world, sometimes being too outstanding is not a good thing. Going with the flow is more in line with Li Xingyu's attitude towards life.
As the group approached the door, Cain and Xinghe were already waiting for them in their hovercar.
Since all ten people, including Haoyue and the others, were going out this time, two hovercars were prepared.
Even if an extended version of the hovercar could carry all of them, the comfort level would be slightly reduced.
Today was another bright and sunny day, with a huge sun hanging in the sky and the scorching temperature making the air feel distorted.
Today, Li Xingyu was wearing a short white T-shirt and a pink pleated skirt that reached mid-thigh. She nodded and smiled at Che, who opened the car door for her, and got into the car while holding down the hem of her skirt.
"Phew, it's so hot today, and it's only 8 a.m.." Li Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief in the space where the temperature had been adjusted.
Although she had awakened, Li Xingyu was still afraid of the heat, especially since the temperature had already reached 40 degrees Celsius at 8 a.m. this morning.
"Little Feather, I've finished making the ice maker and ice cream machine. How about we go home and make some of the popsicles and ice cream you mentioned after we visit the company building?" The car Li Xingyu was in was driven by Xinghe.
There was no other reason than that I was closest to her.
Because he had been preparing for company matters, Xinghe had put his blacksmithing side business on hold for a while, and during this time he was busy with ovens, baking ovens and air fryers.
Li Xingyu had been craving ice cream lately because he couldn't stand the high temperatures, so he, Qingyao, and Hanqing bought blueprints for an ice maker and an ice cream machine from the system store.
In other words, since interstellar space doesn't use machine freezing technology, ice can only be condensed through artificial and natural temperatures.
When Li Xingyu heard this news, he had a feeling that the technology here was very advanced but not really advanced, and he was also speechless.
Although Cain has produced a lot of ice blocks and Li Xingyu has made a lot of frozen desserts recently, it's not good to trouble others every time.
With the help of themselves or others, outstanding individuals with god-like abilities may awaken a second ability.
However, these are all secrets kept to themselves by those with god-level abilities and mental powers; they are messages that are forbidden to be announced to the outside world.
Li Xingyu knew a little about it, because her parents were all like that.
During this period, Li Xingyu continued to stream during mealtimes, but she would also extend the stream slightly after making some new snacks.
One reason is for advertising, and the other is to expand into the next business opportunity.
The business that has been decided is basically ready, and even the contingency plans and inventory have been prepared. Looking at the kitchen utensils forged by Xinghe at home.
Li Xingyu and his team saw another business opportunity: home appliance manufacturing.
Moreover, if the home appliance manufacturing industry chain is developed, all that is needed is to purchase or assemble a batch of robots.
However, there is another option: to cooperate with the Alliance's research department.
If the former was simply an industry for making money, then the latter is about finding a backer and connections for oneself.
However, it's too early to think about these things now, as the company hasn't officially opened for business yet.
“Okay, I don’t know if there are any problems with the company building. If it’s almost lunchtime after we finish looking at it, we can go to Shiwei Huaxia for lunch together.” Li Xingyu’s eyes lit up when she heard Xinghe’s suggestion.
She used to eat all sorts of ice cream in the summer, only slightly restraining herself during her period.
Now that menstruation has taken on a different form, you can eat whatever you want.
These days, all they've had are popsicles, ice bowls, and chilled fruit. Li Xingyu misses ice cream, popsicles, and other frozen treats even more.
So there must be a reason why our ancestors' wisdom has been preserved. We shouldn't discard it so quickly; sometimes it's still quite useful.
It's really wrong of StarCraft to replace refrigerators and freezers just because they have time freezers and environment simulators.
Time freezers and environment simulators are nowhere near as practical as refrigerators and freezers, and their prices are incomparable, okay?
The whole journey was filled with laughter and joy, and music was playing in the car, giving it the feel of a picnic.
The group quickly arrived at the chosen address.
Compared to the endless plains they saw last time, this time Li Xingyu and his group could see a cluster of tall buildings in the distance.
Li Xingyu and his group parked their car at the entrance of the complex. The complex covered a vast area, and although the specific data was clearly marked in the data file, Li Xingyu didn't bother to memorize it.
The main gate is a European-style metal gate, and the decorative walls on both sides are covered with green vines.
Because everyone's information had already been entered online, the gate opened automatically after sensing the arrival of the people, and Li Xingyu and the others drove straight inside.
Although there are many parking spaces outside, they are all on their own property, and the weather is so hot, so they can only get less sun exposure.
After entering, there is a spacious square with the company's logo sculpture and fountain in the center. On both sides, there are ornamental green plants and large trees, as well as paths leading to the factory buildings and employee dormitories at the back.
The building directly opposite the main gate and the plaza is the office building, designed in the shape of a pair of outstretched white wings, reflecting the company's name, with reflective glass panels that resemble feathers adorning the wings.
This is only because of the advanced technology in interstellar space; otherwise, Li Xingyu and his team wouldn't have built their company building like this, although it is indeed very beautiful.
Li Xingyu and the others parked their car in the designated parking spaces on the edge of the square before getting out of the car, still holding their umbrellas.
Although they weren't afraid of getting a tan, none of them really wanted to be exposed to the 40-degree summer sun, especially the few with their fur.
Within a radius of 25 meters from the fountain, lighting, fountains, and drainage systems were installed, making it suitable for a musical fountain.
This idea came to Li Xingyu on a whim, but he only mentioned it briefly. After Xinghe and the others studied it carefully, they added it to the design drawings.
The first stop, of course, is the office building.
Pushing open the one-way glass door, the first thing you see is the reception desk with the company name on it and the huge company name and logo on the wall behind it.
The floor is entirely covered in light gray marble tiles, the reception desk and the wall behind it are in a light wood tone, the company name and logo are white, and there are two two-meter-tall green potted plants on either side of the front row.
Both sides are rest areas, furnished with chairs, tables, sofas, coffee tables, and small stools.
All the glass is adjustable, and you can choose one-sided, transparent, or other modes. During rest periods, it is uniformly opaque.
The building has eighteen floors, each floor housing offices for different departments and various recreational areas. The top floor houses Li Xingyu and his team's offices and rest area.
Some floors are still vacant, waiting to be opened for future business development.
This reflects Li Xingyu and Xinghe's ambition and their confidence in themselves.
The office building also has a dedicated library and archives, and it's quite necessary for employees to have adequate rest and receive some company benefits.
Both the staircase and the suspended elevator are behind the wall next to the reception desk. Both access methods have more than three up and down devices, emphasizing convenience and speed. However, the staircase is located further back than the suspended elevator.
The passageways are thoughtfully marked with information about each floor and the function of the stairs/elevator.
Li Xingyu and his group have their own levitation elevator, while the staircases are shared.
The upper and lower passages of the suspended elevator are transparent. Except for the two that Li Xingyu and his group use, which can be adjusted to a semi-transparent mode, the others cannot be adjusted.
This is also a measure taken to prevent some unexpected situations and events.
After activating the levitation elevator by manipulating mental energy fluctuations, Li Xingyu and the others looked at each floor one by one.
The construction team at Xingji was quite good; the results completely met Li Xingyu and his team's expectations.
"Do you think there's anything that needs to be changed in this office building?" Li Xingyu asked the group of people who had finished their observation, standing in her largest office on the top floor.
Since only the building has been completed, the interior decoration still needs to be arranged separately, so all the places are currently empty.
It only took Li Xingyu and his group a little over half an hour to explore the 18th floor, mainly because there was nothing else inside except some partitions and rooms.
"I think we need to add some directional signs in various places on top of the current ones. Also, the defense and monitoring systems are not perfect enough." Xinghe stood in front of the highest-level control center, watching the images displayed on the screen.
“Okay, then can you and Li Yue handle this?” Li Xingyu nodded and noted it down, then looked at Xinghe and Li Yue.
“Sure, I’m good at this, and Li Yue’s experience will be a great help.” Xinghe nodded in agreement.
Tanuki smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Next is the interior decoration and layout. First, we'll choose a general style, and then we'll purchase the relevant items."
As for our own offices, shall we decorate them separately? Or do you have any other ideas?" Li Xingyu leaned against the window, looking at the people in front of her.
"Ahem, Little Feather, we can decorate our own offices, but could we design and decorate yours?" Qingqi took a step toward Li Xingyu amidst the urging glances from the crowd, her fully exposed elf ears a vibrant, bright red.
"Hmm? Of course you can have it if you want. I have a lot of faith in your aesthetic sense." Li Xingyu was surprised for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Great, one less thing I have to do myself.
If Li Xingyu were to design and decorate the office herself, from style to decorations, she might struggle with indecisiveness until the company is officially operational.
Although I had anticipated Li Xingyu's answer, none of them were as reassuring as her direct agreement.
After spending so much time together, Li Yue and the others had figured out Li Xingyu's personality and attitude towards them, so they naturally knew she would agree before raising the question.
"Okay, we'll decorate Xiaoyu's office properly." Qingqi couldn't help but smile happily when she heard Li Xingyu say that she trusted their judgment.
“Okay~, but you should also decorate your own offices properly. Shall we go and take a look at other places next?” Li Xingyu straightened up and suggested.
"Okay, we've finished looking at the office building. Next up are the production workshop, warehouse, dormitory, medical area, and small garden."
"This is a distribution map. I've sent it to the group. Remember to save it. How about we follow this order from now on?" Xinghe opened his personal computer screen, which displayed a small map of the company.
The group moved a little closer and looked along the route that Xinghe had pointed out.
