"I'm so envious."

"Tell me! Did you bribe the system? Otherwise, how could you be so lucky!" Sangsang joked.

"I didn't do it, I didn't do it, you're talking nonsense!" Shen Zhiyi immediately denied it three times in a row.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha.”

"I'm counting on you two for food, so remember to cook for me, thank you!" Sangsang sent a pitiful message.

Shen Zhiyi snorted: "Easy."

"So, it seems we're Zhiyi's underlings?" Chen Peng raised an eyebrow.

Sangsang hesitated for a moment, "Hmm~ how can it not count?"

Another round of laughter erupted in the small group chat.

"Oh right, I almost forgot to give you the seafood." Chen Peng suddenly remembered that he still had some seafood in his backpack.

Although some were taken away, there was still some left to give to Sang Yu and Shen Zhiyi.

"Wait! But I don't have any cooking utensils, how am I supposed to eat? I've even used up all my torches." Sang Yu's only pot was also ruthlessly confiscated.

Chen Peng: "It's alright, Zhiyi is here, we'll just eat from the same pot."

"? I've been forced into the role of a cook, right?"

Chen Peng didn't give Shen Zhiyi a chance to continue speaking and directly completed the seafood transaction.

"..." Shen Zhiyi was speechless.

"Meow~" Little Lightning meowed.

Shen Zhiyi then realized that Little Lightning had already finished eating.

"What's wrong? Are you leaving?" Shen Zhiyi patted the cat's head.

Little Lightning rubbed against her, meowing.

Little Dried Fish: "Awoooooo!" What are you doing?! This is my zookeeper!

Little Lightning was startled by the sudden appearance of the dried fish and its fur stood on end.

"Meow!"

Shen Zhiyi sensed something was wrong and quickly hugged Little Lightning in her arms.

The dried fish was stunned.

The dog owner had another dog outside! Right in front of it! He hugged it!

Little Lightning glanced disdainfully at the dried fish, its eyes filled with contempt. "Meow~"

What zookeeper? This is also my zookeeper.

?

The dried fish was completely dumbfounded.

Waaaaah, the leopard isn't the zookeeper's only leopard anymore.

"You two, stop causing trouble. Get along peacefully and don't fight!" Shen Zhiyi warned the two little ones.

The dried fish reluctantly agreed.

Little Lightning stayed in Shen Zhiyi's arms for a while, and then left.

After Little Lightning left, Little Dried Fish felt like it had come back to life and rushed over to ask Shen Zhiyi for a hug.

Helpless, Shen Zhiyi hugged the dried fish to her chest.

[The system will be undergoing an update, which is expected to take three hours. During this time, the interface will be unavailable for communication. Please be prepared.]

Fearing the deal might fall through, Shen Zhiyi first sent Sang Yu a bottle of eight-treasure porridge and a bag of beef jerky.

Chen Peng didn't receive any, but he still had food on his own.

However, she could use this time to tidy up her Nebula.

While on the island, she obtained two nebulae, and luckily, the system didn't take them away.

After merging the two nebulae, the total area of ​​the nebula reached ten square meters.

They took out the low-grade star soil and placed it next to the ordinary star soil.

After thinking for a while, she finally remembered that she had the blueprints for a wooden house, so she immediately built a small wooden house.

It takes two hours to build the log cabin.

They originally intended to make a medicine-making station, but Shen Zhiyi didn't have enough materials, so they put it aside for the time being.

They also built some fences to fill in the gaps.

It seems there's nothing left to do, Shen Zhi thought to himself.

Shen Zhiyi smiled and spun around in her nebula.

Then they discovered that a tiny sprout had actually emerged from that ordinary patch of star soil.

This piqued Shen Zhiyi's interest.

Shen Zhiyi squatted down by Xingrang's side to observe the little sprout.

[Unknown plants can have their attributes viewed after they enter their juvenile stage.]

"Goodness, we can't even look at it, it's so mysterious?"

After thinking it over, Shen Zhiyi decided to transplant the tender shoots into low-grade star soil, which has much higher nutritional value than ordinary star soil.

The young shoots can grow faster.

After the transplant was completed, Shen Zhiyi wondered what to plant next on this piece of star soil.

It seems she still has quite a few seeds within her.

After hesitating for a while, Shen Zhiyi decided to plant mutated bananas, which could produce two kilograms of bananas a day.

I just don't know how long it will take to get results.

Fearing that some seeds might not germinate, Shen Zhiyi put five seeds in at once.

Shen Zhiyi then checked the ripening progress.

[Mutant Banana Tree: Seed stage, enters juvenile stage after three days; plant nutrient solution can accelerate plant growth.]

Unfortunately, Shen Zhiyi did not have any plant nutrient solution.

However, Shen Zhiyi planned to go back to the trading area to try her luck and see if she could find it.

By the time the cabin was finished, it was already very late.

The system won't be updated for another hour. Shen Zhiyi has been too tired these past few days and can't take it anymore. She's going to wash up and go to sleep.

The dried fish also nestled obediently at Shen Zhiyi's feet and slept.

The next day, Shen Zhiyi remained in bed, refusing to get up.

Little Fish was already awake and was playing with its tail at the foot of the bed.

Shen Zhiyi struggled to get out of bed. She didn't want to get up! She didn't want to do any work!

"Aww~"

Seeing that Shen Zhiyi had finally gotten up, Xiao Yugan dared to come over and tug at her.

I took a small dried fish out of my backpack and stuffed it into the dried fish's mouth, silencing it as it continued to squeal.

Having a cabin is great; I feel much more at ease sleeping at night.

Shen Zhiyi opened the panel, ready to check the trading area.

I searched all around, but still couldn't find any plant nutrient solution.
