My God-Level System Can Rebuild Civilization in the Apocalypse!

Joo Joowon selected several shops that fell within the range he could accept.

Their ratings looked genuine rather than artificially inflated.

The shop owners also did not seem hot tempered and none of them had publicly argued with customers.

He entered every one of those shops and carefully examined their pricing standards.

First, he eliminated every shop that required customers from remote regions to pay their own shipping fees.

Next, he removed every shop that refused to negotiate on price.

Then he excluded those that were already doing excellent business and clearly did not care about earning a little extra.

Only after that did he carefully compare the few remaining choices.

As the highest priority, Joo Joowon focused on OneBrainCellStudio.

He had already read through the reviews.

Among the genuine positive reviews that did not appear to be fake, about one third of the customers claimed that the products really did help train Mental Power.

The only uncertainty was that not a single customer had ever mentioned the minimum Mental Power required to actually use OneBrainCellStudio’s products.

When Joo Joowon asked customer service himself, the reply was simply that anyone capable of projecting their Mental Power outside their body could use them.

However, he treated every shop in this area as though it were a shady business, so naturally he did not believe that answer.

The second option was IJustWanttoThemGraduate.

After looking at the pictures posted by customers, Joo Joowon realized that their definition of "poor workmanship" seemed a little different from his own.

At the very least, the actual photos shown by previous buyers were still within what he considered acceptable.

The only issues were things like leaking roofs, design details that were somewhat unreasonable, or wallpaper patterns that did not line up properly.

They were the sort of flaws that could certainly irritate people, but they were still perfectly livable houses.

Joo Joowon was not particularly picky about his living conditions.

After all, he had lived in plenty of cheap rental apartments before.

He was hardly at the point where he could no longer tolerate a bit of hardship.

As long as they could properly set up the electricity and water supply and there were no problems with the Domain Core, everything else could be overlooked.

The biggest concern was simply that they used completely different energy systems.

Although customer service had assured him that this would not be an issue because they could adapt everything to the energy available in the current world, Joo Joowon still found it difficult to trust construction work that could not be repaired immediately if something went wrong.

After all, they did not even provide after sales support.

No matter how convincing their promises sounded, they were still nothing more than empty words.

The remaining shops all had their own strengths and weaknesses as well, making it difficult for Joo Joowon to make a decision.

Unfortunately, his choices were extremely limited.

At least these shops accepted equipment as partial payment.

Some allowed customers to pay a deposit first and settle the remaining balance later.

Others even offered installment plans.

As for the other shops, Joo Joowon could not even afford the deposit.

At least the deposits required by these shops were still within his reach.

Joo Joowon had never expected that, even in the apocalypse, he would once again experience what it meant to be poor.

As someone who had always lived alone, it had been a long time since he had truly felt that kind of pressure.

A cat’s lifespan was limited.

No matter what, it would leave before he did.

He had never intended to adopt another one afterward, nor had he ever worried about what would happen when he grew old.

Because of that, he had always lived quite freely.

In fact, judging by the amount of savings he had before the apocalypse, and considering that he had never planned to buy a house, Joo Joowon had estimated that he would only need to work another two or three years before retiring and traveling everywhere together with the little ones.

After all, who could have predicted that the apocalypse would descend?

At that point, all of Joo Joowon’s savings had become worthless, and he had once again returned to being completely broke.

Because his choices were so limited, Joo Joowon carefully read through the reviews of every shop, trying to eliminate those whose flaws he found unacceptable so that he would not be left with too few options.

At least the reviews did not appear to be removable, so their authenticity seemed fairly reliable.

After being so selective for such a long time, Joo Joowon even clicked into the shop that had advertised itself in another store’s review section.

Advertisements like that were usually more likely to be scams.

However, since the shop owner had not deleted the review, it at least suggested that the person probably did possess some ability. Then again, it could also have been the shop owner’s alternate account, created simply to attract customers because the store’s reputation had become so terrible.

No matter what, the fact that they charged no design fee was still somewhat tempting.

After taking a look, however, Joo Joowon immediately lost interest.

Compared to this place, even the old shop with its terrible reputation looked much better.

At least there, he knew exactly what the worst possible outcome would be.

Anyone bold enough to advertise inside another shop’s reviews either had complete confidence in their own abilities or an inflated opinion of themselves.

Clearly, this one belonged to the latter.

The designs were flashy but impractical, completely indulging the designer’s personal tastes.

The designer even criticized customers for their sense of aesthetics and made unauthorized changes to the construction materials, then insulted those who complained for having no taste.

A designer’s role was to showcase their talent while serving the customer’s needs.

Unless it was a completely open ended project, there was no reason for the designer to simply do whatever they wanted.
