Time passed day by day, and August came in a blink of an eye. During this period, great changes have taken place in the school, and everyone has become busy.
First, the school launched a new contribution value system. Everyone can use contribution points to consume in activities such as eating and shopping. To put it simply, contribution points are a special currency that only circulates within the school.
Everyone has 200 contribution points in their initial account. A meal in the school cafeteria is worth 10 contribution points. 200 contribution points are enough for one person for about a week. After spending them all, you can earn contribution points by taking on tasks, etc.
While launching this contribution value system, the school also updated a new section on the Explorer APP, the task module, where tasks can be intercepted or published.
The school has posted many tasks on it and encourages everyone to take them actively.
[We are hiring 1 chef and 3 waiters. Food and accommodation are provided, with 8-hour weekends. Contribution value is negotiable. You can also experience the customs of another world firsthand. Action is worse than hesitation, come and sign up!]
[We buy bamboo weaving in bulk, provide tutorials and raw materials, free guidance, and charge by piece. If you are interested, please go to the South Square for consultation.]
[Growing herbs, contribution points are paid daily, those with relevant majors and farming experience will have their contribution points increased by half]
…
Gu Shi flipped through the booklet and was struck by its extensive scope. They were truly trying every possible way to profit from the aliens. The common currencies in the alien world were gold, silver, and copper, with an exchange rate of 1 gold coin = 100 silver coins = 1 copper coin.
Gu Shi guessed that the school planned to use money to collect illustrations, which would save both time and effort. However, they would have to find another way to collect illustrations that could not be bought with money.
Cheng Xuqing had already found out about the most cost-effective ways. The school was recruiting chefs and waiters at a restaurant opened in the nearby city of Wayo. The salary was the best. Not only would you receive contribution points, but if you were lucky you could also get tips from the guests. However, it required long-term work and was troublesome to travel back and forth.
I don't know which genius has come up with this bamboo weaving business, but it's doing quite well. The products are placed in bamboo weaving boxes, and the price is not expensive. When the residents of the other world buy them, they get the product and a beautiful, sturdy box, which is really a win-win situation.
While selling blind boxes, this stall also sells some bamboo handicrafts. This job is suitable for people who are dexterous and quick.
Growing herbs is a job that recruits the most people and does not require much skill. There are rules for when to water and fertilize, and the contribution value is also considerable.
The crops planted in the fields are all alien crops that the school has decided on after investigation. They are all raw materials for potions with great market demand and high profits.
Cheng Xuqing also told a piece of gossip. It was said that several professors in the Department of Chemistry had already started studying how to make potions. The explosions heard from the laboratory building a few times before were because of them.
After a heated discussion, Cheng Xuqing and the other two went to farm. After all, with their expertise plus half the contribution value, it was still very attractive.
Gu Shi didn't join them because he and Wang Feng had already signed up for further studies. After confirming his intention to attend the further studies, he immediately stepped into the hell of cram school, studying day and night.
The school regards further study as a long-term task and gives each of them 5,000 contribution points, so they don't have to worry about living expenses.
Then, this group of people who were participating in further studies were stuffed into a cram school and began to learn the common language of the other world.
At first, Gu Shi was still wondering why this cram school started so early. When he saw that the teacher of the first class was a smiling old professor, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
The result was just as he expected. To learn a new language in less than a month was simply a pipe dream for Gu Shi. After all, he was not a language genius, but just an ordinary person.
Fortunately, the school does not expect them to be proficient in the language in such a short time. After all, the teacher who teaches them has only learned the language for a few days. The school's plan is to try to let them master most of the commonly used words before school starts.
During this period, Gu Shi did not only take language classes, but also some classes on common knowledge about other worlds, information security, personal safety, etc.
These classes filled Gu Shi's schedule so tightly that he felt like he was back in his senior year of high school. Fortunately, he had no problem with listening and speaking, and he only had to learn characters.
As the departure time drew closer, the number of language classes on Gu Shi's schedule gradually decreased, while the proportion of general knowledge classes gradually increased. The person who taught these classes was Wang Feng, who was in charge of leading the team.
Wang Feng is in his thirties and has served in the army for more than ten years. He never imagined that one day he would be able to teach cultural courses to a group of college students.
He was a little overwhelmed as it was his first time as a teacher. During this period, apart from preparing the team to go to Congleton, he was dealing with Gu Shi and others.
The school attached great importance to this group of people who went out to study. Wang Feng would come here whenever he had free time besides attending classes. After more than ten days, both sides became familiar with each other.
Their exposed identities are that they are residents of a mountain tribe called Xia who live in the deep mountains and forests and have been living in isolation from the outside world.
Although they are mountain dwellers, they live a prosperous life and have developed their own cultural customs and many unique products, such as the food they sell outside and bamboo weaving.
Some time ago, there was a landslide during the rainy season and the entire tribe was destroyed, so they came to the outside world.
The pioneer team sent by the school specifically checked the history in this regard. This continent is very vast, and such hidden tribes really exist, and there have been such records in history.
