Inside the trading point, "You want to go to the forest area?" The staff at the trading point looked at the three of them in surprise.

"Yes, comrade, do you have any recommendations? The next time we can come here will be after the Lieyangyue." Ningxia took the two children and secretly looked at this clean and bright place.

The staff member smiled brightly, "Looks like I'll be staying here permanently. Don't call me comrade anymore. My name is Zhang Jiaming, and unless something unexpected happens I'll be working here until I retire. You can just call me Xiao Zhang."

Xiao Zhang said as he led a few people to a counter. "If you have some spare money, I suggest you exchange seeds first if you have enough supplies. The spring seeds planted now won't be harvested, so the price is low. After the scorching sun month, when it's time for autumn planting, it will be the peak season for exchanging seeds, and they will be much more expensive than now."

Ningxia nodded. "What seeds can I choose for autumn sowing?"

Xiao Zhang reached over to the counter and touched some switch. The two-meter-wide counter suddenly lit up. Sangsang and Lin Yi stared in wonder. Ningxia couldn't help but exclaim, "There's still electricity?" The government office had been completely dark yesterday.

Xiao Zhang chuckled, "Of course we do. Our trading post is the face of Chocobo, so we have to keep it well-maintained."

"But now, aren't all the circuits broken?"

"We use a generator. The electricity was newly connected when this place was first built, so we use a diesel generator. But we have to be frugal. We only get so much diesel per season."

Ningxia understood. The trade point tends to host more outsiders, so it's a bit more elaborate. The government office only hosts its own people, so it keeps things as simple as possible. This is truly a strong-willed Chu Hua.
