"Xiao Fan, come here for a second."
Bai Anhai's voice was gentle, with a hint of fatherly affection.
Bai Yifan's smile froze for a moment, and he glanced cautiously at Bai Anhai.
Bai Anhai smiled gently at Bai Yifan, "What are you afraid of! Do you think your old man would cheat you out of a little bit of crystal cores!"
Bai Yifan paused for a moment.
Yes, it's definitely going to be a scam.
That's how my dad used to trick me out of my allowance.
He said he was just borrowing money to spend and would pay it back in a few days!
Never paid it back, never!
They have absolutely no integrity.
Bai Yifan glanced at Bai Anhai, silently packed the poured-out crystal cores into his suitcase, and then pulled the suitcase away from Bai Anhai.
Beware of fire, theft, and your dad!
Bai Anhai looked at Leng Yebai and said gently, "Little Leng! You and Xiao Zhu went on a mission this time too. Are some of the crystal cores inside your possession?"
Leng Yebai paused, glanced at Bai Anhai, and then at Bai Yifan.
He nodded decisively.
Her low status within the family is obvious.
"Yes, logically speaking, the three of us should split it equally," Leng Yebai replied expressionlessly.
"Is that so?" Bai Anhai asked, his voice drawn out. "You and Xiao Zhu have high abilities, but Xiao Fan doesn't have any offensive abilities. Who contributed the most?"
"Of course it was me! I dug all the mine shafts!!" Bai Yifan answered quickly.
"Digging a hole is nothing, even a Taotie can do that, and it does it better than you." Bai Anhai glanced sideways at Leng Yebai. "Little Leng, right?"
“Yes! Xiao Zhu contributed the most to this mission, so if it's a distribution of crystal cores, Xiao Zhu will definitely get the most.” Leng Yebai’s voice was extremely firm.
This wasn't to please his father-in-law; he genuinely believed that his daughter was the best and had performed the best!
Bai Yifan clutched his chest, looking at Bai Xizhu with a pained expression, "Sis, tell me the truth, wasn't I the one who contributed the most!"
Bai Xizhu raised an eyebrow at Bai Yifan.
'Older sister'?
How old must she be!
She's a fairy!
"I also think I'm the best!" Bai Xizhu pointed to herself without blushing or skipping a beat.
Bai Yifan: ...
I have never seen such a shameless family!
“Even though you didn’t help much, I can still give you some crystal cores!” Bai Xizhu stroked her chin. “Miners’ wages were not low before the apocalypse, but they are not so popular after the apocalypse. You dug a hole all afternoon, so you can still get some reward according to the price of ordinary people in the base.”
How many crystal cores?
Bai Yifan's eyes lit up.
He knew that his incredibly gentle, kind, beautiful, generous, and carefree older sister would never mistreat her own brother!
“About 0.1 crystal cores,” Bai Xizhu said honestly.
This price is already quite reasonable. Some exploitative bases don't even offer a single crystal core as a reward for an ordinary person working for a month.
Bai Yifan: ...
What the heck is a decimal point?!
"Dad, am I really his biological son?" Bai Yifan sighed, rubbing his forehead.
It would take him ten days to dig a hole to get a single crystal core!
Is this the key point?
no!
The key point is, there aren't that many holes for him to dig!
"It was a stormy night. Your mother and I heard a baby crying outside..." Bai Anhai began to narrate calmly.
“…No need to go to such lengths to make up a story, I don’t need the crystal core.” Bai Yifan’s lips twitched violently.
Whether before or after the apocalypse, his allowance remained as meager as ever.
Everywhere exudes the subtle fragrance of poverty.
"When we opened the door, we saw a cat in springtime..." Bai Anhai remained calm.
"I don't want it, but could you at least give me some crystal cores as pocket money? I had them before the apocalypse, but why don't I have them now?" Bai Yifan clicked his tongue. "As expected, the richer people are, the stingier they are."
The crystal cores at home are stored in sacks. They are only allowed to absorb crystal cores to enhance their superpowers, and they are not allowed to spend crystal cores on themselves!
He can't even go shopping in the legendary black market during the apocalypse!
He had heard that the black market in the apocalypse sold all sorts of things, and he was eager to see it for himself.
However, poverty stopped him in his tracks.
The Bai family took the idea of raising sons frugally and daughters lavishly to its extreme.
“We look at the cat in spring, and it has you in its mouth.” Bai Anhai’s expression remained unchanged.
Bai Yifan: ...
To avoid spending his pocket money on crystal cores, Old Man Bai has become a Chinese language teacher.
"Calm down. Since you're so gentle, I'll give you a crystal core as pocket money," Bai Xizhu said generously.
Bai Yifan was stunned for a moment.
By the time he realized what was happening, a crystal core the size of a thumb had already been placed in his hand.
In a flash, Bai Yifan's suitcase containing the crystal core was taken into Bai Xizhu's spatial storage.
Of the three thousand crystal cores, Bai Yifan only had one crystal core left in his hand.
Bai Yifan stared at the crystal core in his hand, lost in thought.
For a long time, no one spoke.
Leng Yebai thought Bai Yifan was withdrawn and was about to say a few words of comfort when he saw the corners of Bai Yifan's mouth curl up.
"Yay! I have a Zero-Cost Crystal Core!"
Bai Yifan jumped up and down on the spot, looking at the crystal core in his hand with excitement.
Since the apocalypse, he has dug up many crystal cores and extinguished many zombies.
Those have all been confiscated.
This is his own crystal core, which is like pocket money.
