Wasteland Farming: All About Accumulation

Chen Wangping, who transmigrated to the wasteland, obtained a wasteland farming game system that integrated elements from Factorio, Dyson Sphere Program, and Stardew Valley. As long as he accumulat...

Chapter 71 Red Peppercorns

To be honest, he really wanted to get some space equipment to use.

There are only 20 storage compartments now, which is very tight and not convenient to show to outsiders.

In addition, the storage compartments are classified by category. If you have a space equipment, you can put small and miscellaneous items in the space equipment, and put more and single supplies in the storage compartments.

That would be much more convenient.

Tang Xihe flipped his hand and took out a space bracelet and said, "I just happened to have an extra ten-cubic space bracelet here. How about exchanging it for a thousand pieces of ore?"

Chen Wangping was surprised and said, "But I dug out all the ore in Mine No. 112 and still didn't find a thousand pieces of deep blue iron ore."

Tang Xihe blinked, "Aren't there still mines 113 and 114? Besides, we can exchange them for food. A meal can be exchanged for dozens of ores~"

Chen Wangping understood now.

This wave, this wave is abusing public power for personal gain.

Chen Wangping nodded and said, "No problem, it's a deal. I'll trade with you after I finish mining."

Tang Xihe shook his head and stuffed the space bracelet directly into Chen Wangping's hand and said, "Don't wait until you finish mining. I'll give you the bracelet first. This way you don't have to carry the ore basket anymore."

Chen Wangping was a little surprised that Tang Xihe trusted him so much.

He silently took the bracelet and, following Tang Xihe's instructions, put the ore basket behind him into the space bracelet with a thought.

Seeing that this space bracelet had no special effects, Chen Wangping felt relieved.

You don’t have to worry about being exposed when taking things out of the storage compartment in the future.

The next second, Chen Wangping discovered that there seemed to be something inside the space bracelet.

He looked carefully and saw salt, oil, pepper, and some unknown powder.

It's all condiments.

Chen Wangping smiled. No wonder a meal could be worth so much ore.

The drunkard's real intention is not to drink.

Tang Xihe felt relieved when he saw that Chen Wangping didn't say anything.

Now, I can eat for free openly in the future!

Chen Wangping took out his pickaxe and walked forward. "One thousand yuan, it's a heavy task. Let's get started."

Tang Xihe nodded and followed briskly.

Five hours later, the two returned to the entrance of the mine.

Chen Wangping wiped the sweat off his face, glanced at the sun and said, "It's still early. Let's meet at the usual place by the river tonight. I'll get you something to eat."

Tang Xihe was waiting for this and nodded repeatedly, "Okay!"

Just as she finished speaking, the intercom on her body rang.

After a few quick words, Tang Xihe hung up the phone and shook the intercom, saying, "The process for Intermediate Mine No. 7 has been completed. We'll give you the contract when we return to the North City Gate. From now on, you'll be the mine owner, Boss Chen."

Chen Wangping smiled and said, "Thank you, Boss Tang. See you tonight."

Now that the mine work is done, I will go to the Dusk Forest later to find ironwood and make a wooden pickaxe for mining magnetite.

You can set up the equipment at home at night!

Soon, Tang Xihe drove Chen Wangping back to Huoniu City and got the contract.

Before they parted, Tang Xihe asked, "Do you have a communicator? It would be convenient for us to contact you in the evening."

Chen Wangping thought for a moment and said, "Give me your communicator number first. I'll contact you in the evening."

Tang Xihe understood, took out a small notebook, quickly wrote down his contact number, handed it to Chen Wangping, and said a little embarrassedly: "If you can't finish it tonight, can I take it away?"

To be honest, after eating the grilled fish made by Chen Wangping, Tang Xihe always felt that the meals he ate at home were tasteless, and he wished that every meal could be made by Chen Wangping.

Chen Wangping smiled and said, "No problem, I'll make sure you're full."

After getting off the car, Chen Wangping put on his hood and went straight to Yuanfang Street, where he spent two silver coins to buy a second-hand communicator.

The communicator is very expensive, a brand new one costs more than ten silver coins, while a second-hand one is much cheaper.

"Anyway, the secondary manufacturing station at home can analyze it. Maybe adding some materials can strengthen it."

Picking up the communicator, Chen Wangping entered Tang Xihe's number and dialed it.

The communication was quickly picked up.

Tang Xihe's voice rang out from the other side, "Chen Wangping? Is that you?"

Chen Wangping said, "It's me. Just use this number to contact me."

Tang Xihe said: "Okay, see you tonight."

After finishing his work here, Chen Wangping returned home and saw that the golden eagle was still sleeping soundly.

He smiled and didn't wake up Diaobao. He walked into the kitchen, took out the seasoning given by Tang Xihe and tried it on the mutton.

After about twenty minutes, a big pot of braised lamb was ready.

Among those seasonings, he could roughly create a few flavors that he was familiar with, such as soy sauce, vinegar, bay leaves, cinnamon, etc., and he could try the rest later.

“Beep!”

As soon as the meal was ready, Diaobao rushed into the kitchen without waiting for anyone to call.

Chen Wangping smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't get burned, it's a big pot."

The golden eagle nodded repeatedly, drooling.

Chen Wangping filled two large bowls and placed them on the table. Just as he was about to eat, he heard thunder in the sky.

Only then did he remember that the weather forecast on the radio yesterday said there would be thunderstorms today.

"The clouds aren't big, so it shouldn't rain for long. I'll just take a nap and go after the rain stops."

After the man and the eagle had eaten and drunk their fill, they fell asleep.

Three hours later, on the fifth floor of Dusk Forest.

In mid-air, Chen Wangping grabbed the iron rod in the golden eagle's claws and shouted, "Turn left after 30 meters, then turn right after 10 meters, and then go straight for 50 meters."

“Beep!”

The golden eagle responded excitedly and continued to fly across the forest with Chen Wangping!

Super exciting!

Soon, the golden eagle flew into the fourth floor.

According to the golden eagle's previous impression, ironwood grows at the junction of the third and fourth layers, and there are very few of them, only seven or eight trees.

As he was flying, Chen Wangping suddenly saw a familiar icon pop up on the seed search engine and quickly shouted, "Diaobao, Diaobao, land at seven o'clock."

The golden eagle stopped suddenly in mid-air and flew in a curve to the side of a small hill.

Chen Wangping let go of his hands and jumped to the ground, looking at the seven or eight meter tall pepper tree in front of him.

This is a red pepper tree. There are already many red peppercorns growing between the trunk and branches. Some of them are particularly plump and have a thin system glow.

These are the icons that Chen Wangping discovered on the radar.

Sichuan pepper seeds!

Chen Wangping pointed at the branch and turned to the golden eagle and said, "Brother Eagle, do you see those little grains on it? They're called Sichuan peppercorns. Go pick them for me so we can have peppercorn rabbit tonight."

In fact, Chen Wangping had obtained rabbit meat for quite a long time, but he had never cooked it because he had no peppercorns.

Now it can finally be arranged.

When the Golden Eagle heard that there was a new dish, he immediately became motivated and nodded.

Chen Wangping added: "Be careful, there are thorns on the pepper trees."

After hearing this, the golden eagle proudly shook its wings, and metallic light emerged. Its feathers rustled as it flapped its wings.

Congratulations! Your battle pet, Meteorite Golden Eagle, has mastered the skill Iron Feather.
