Chapter 23: Gaining Experience Points by Eating

It was the first time that Lin Xi actually slept in the same bed with someone, and she was so nervous that she couldn’t sleep at all.

On the other hand, Xiao Yongyan's breathing was even and he seemed to be fast asleep.

If Lin Xi moved just a little bit, she would be able to touch Xiao Yongyan next to her, but she didn't dare to move at all. She kept her eyes open in the dark, listening to her own heart pounding.

In the silent night, even the slightest sound is quite noticeable.

After holding on for a long time, Lin Xi decided to quietly get up and move around. After all, it was quite uncomfortable to maintain the same posture all the time.

Unexpectedly, just as Lin Xi lifted a small corner of the quilt, she was suddenly held down by a hand.

Xiao Yongyan's hoarse voice sounded, "What's wrong?"

As he said that, he pulled Lin Xi closer to his arms and said, "Go to bed early. If you don't sleep all the time, will you be able to get up tomorrow?"

Lin Xi was shocked. How did he know that she hadn't slept? Could it be that he wasn't asleep either?

Lin Xi was too timid to say anything and just let Xiao Yongyan hold her obediently. She actually fell asleep in a daze.

When Lin Xi got up the next day, Xiao Yongyan was no longer there. He had probably gone to class.

Probably because I went to bed too late yesterday, so I slept until almost noon.

Since there was nothing to do for the time being, Lin Xi decided to go out for a walk.

There were many snack vendors on both sides of the road. Lin Xi casually bought some cakes to try. He had been tired of the only things he could eat during this period of time.

[Ding, it is detected that the host has eaten a new type of food, and the experience value increases by 2 points. The current total experience value is 23 points. ]

Lin Xi was very surprised. She had eaten so many steamed buns and cabbage at home before, but there was no prompt to increase her experience points. But this time, it increased.

[Answer: The increase in experience points is determined by the level of food consumed by the host. The better the level and quality, the more experience points will be added.]

[The food that the host ate before was of low quality and cannot be exchanged for experience points. ]

In other words, this Shennong system also has a way to increase experience points, which is to eat high-quality food.

Lin Xi immediately became interested. Who doesn’t like to eat?

After accumulating money over this period of time, Lin Xi already had fifty taels of silver in her hands, and she could eat at any restaurant in the town.

Lin Xi returned to the academy happily and dragged Xiao Yongyan, who had just left the classroom, out to eat.

The best restaurant in town is called Yaoji Restaurant. As soon as Lin Xi entered, he ordered a table full of delicious dishes. Even Xiao Yongyan was a little surprised, as this did not seem to be Lin Xi's style.

But Lin Xi had just discovered a way to earn experience points and was in high spirits, so he couldn't stop and clicked a lot.

"Why don't we call Aunt Wu and the others to come and eat together?"

The people from the Wu family should be selling steamed buns at this moment, so Xiao Yongyan went to call them over.

A group of people sat together and ate a table full of delicious food, and everyone was very satisfied.

Not far away, Wang Xiaoling, who was shopping on the street, saw this scene and felt very uncomfortable.

She wanted so much to learn how to make steamed buns from Lin Xi, but Lin Xi taught the technique to the Wu family in the blink of an eye.

The other members of the Wang family spent a lot of time and effort, but not only did they fail to learn Lin Xi's skills, they ended up in a mess.

This Lin Xi is so abominable.

"Xiaoling, didn't we say we were going to look at the materials? Why are you in a daze?" Wang Meihua saw that Wang Xiaoling was staring at a certain place, so she looked over there too.

"Alas," Wang Meihua sighed, "She is really amazing. She is pretty and makes beautiful steamed buns. I just don't have that kind of luck."

Here it comes again. Wang Xiaoling hates Wang Meihua’s attitude the most.

Of course you should fight for what you want. Does God expect you to let gifts fall to you?

"Xiaoling, aren't you leaving?" Wang Meihua found it strange to see Wang Xiaoling standing still.

"It's okay. I suddenly remembered that Xiaobao particularly likes the peanuts from this restaurant. I'll go buy some. You go to the fabric shop first." Wang Xiaoling said.

Wang Meihua did not suspect anything and went to the cloth shop first.

Wang Xiaoling walked into the store in a pretentious manner, being very careful, for fear of being seen by Lin Xi.

Here, Lin Xi was telling them about his money-making business.

"I found that there are not many people selling meat in Fenghe Town, and most of them are bacon. If we can introduce bacon from Beijing, it will definitely sell well." This is not something Lin Xi came up with out of thin air, but the experience she summed up after a round of research in the market.

Xiao Yongyan glanced at Lin Xi briefly. When had it ever been popular to eat bacon in the capital? He had been in the capital for more than ten years, but how come he had never heard of it?

But since Lin Xi said so, Xiao Yongyan agreed.

The Wu family was even more confused. They just thought that Lin Xi was a person with great ideas, and as long as she wanted to do it, there would be no problem.

"Sister, just do what you want to do. If you need any help, just call me." Wu Erniu said.

Lin Xi would never trouble the Wu family again. "Nothing else, I just want to ask if anyone in the village raises pigs. I want to buy some fresh pork."

"Speaking of pig farming, there are a few households in the village. But now that it's not a festival, I guess no one would slaughter a pig." Aunt Wu was a little troubled.

Wang Xiaoling, with her back to Lin Xi and the others, raised a smile. God has eyes, and her chance has come.

…

Lin Xi and his friends stayed in the county town for about five days before returning to the village.

During this period, Lin Xi also ate and drank everywhere, and ate at almost all the major restaurants in the county.

At the risk of gaining weight, Lin Xi earned himself 20 more experience points, and his total experience points now reached 43 points.

The rice seedlings in the rice fields are growing vigorously, and the golden carp are also growing healthily.

Just now, the one hundred ducklings bought from the Dai family were also put into hands. All Lin Xi had to do was sit and count the money, waiting for the right time.

She had nothing else to do now, so she was thinking about where to buy some fresh pork.

Just when she was worried, she suddenly met Sun Shuping halfway through her journey.

"The Xiao family," Sun Shuping greeted Lin Xi enthusiastically, "I heard from Aunt Wu that you wanted to buy pork."

Lin Xi didn't expect Aunt Wu to spread the news so quickly. She nodded and said, "Yes, do you want to sell your pigs?"

"That's right. The pig at home is ready to be slaughtered. It's fresh pork. If you need it, I will slaughter it and send it to you tomorrow morning. Don't worry about the price. It is definitely cheaper than in town. I will charge you 45 yuan per pound. It depends on how much you want." Sun Shuping said a lot in one breath.

"There's no rush for that. I have to go back and discuss with my husband how much to do. I'll tell you once I'm sure." Lin Xi did not agree immediately.

Sun Shuping said quickly, "Okay, you can come anytime. My wife will definitely be here if I'm not home."

After saying goodbye to Sun Shuping, Lin Xi returned home.

As soon as I stepped into the house, I saw Xiao Yongyan coming out of the house. Dinner was already prepared on the table.

Lin Xi wanted to discuss the matter of making bacon with Xiao Yongyan, but suddenly remembered that Sun Shuping’s wife was Wang Xiaoling.
