Chapter 162 Free Help
The resource refresh rate this month is the same in all regions. Ordinary residents have basically left the city. Seeing different grains and vegetables, everyone wants to collect more.
Some people get up early in the morning and go out with the whole family, including their teenagers.
Paradise City has now been promoted to a third-level city-state, for the simple reason of being able to purchase a protective shield that can regulate the temperature within the city.
Although Ke Qun always played games before the end of the world, flirting with girls was like collecting cards. After flirting with one, he would move on to the next one and continue his pursuit.
But since he became the city lord, he has felt a sense of responsibility and has tried his best to resolve conflicts between the residents in the city.
So after several nearby city-states were dissolved, many residents came here.
It’s just that Ke Qun originally played games mainly to pick up girls, and most of his gaming equipment was given to him by girls. He was not interested in games themselves.
When the system asked, he did not choose to exchange his assets for gold coins, so he has never been as lavish as Lu Jiu in building a city-state.
He always prioritized city defense weapons and patrol NPCs. After all, these could play a big role when a tide of beasts besieged the city. Prices in the city were slightly higher than those in Xuantian City, but people's degree of freedom in life was similar to that in Xuantian City.
The Chinese people always work hard and accumulate resources under any circumstances.
It was another morning, and the fields outside Paradise City were full of people, all bending over to collect food and vegetables.
The sun came out today, but people didn't feel any warmth at all. Instead, everyone had to hunch their necks when a gust of wind passed by.
Lin Jiang is only twelve years old this year. Before the end of the world, he should be in school at this age, but now he is out with his parents to collect food, but he is not dissatisfied.
Before the end of the world, he had severe asthma. After the world changed drastically, his disease disappeared and his body was no different from that of a normal healthy person.
In the past, his classmates were afraid to play with him for fear that he would suddenly have an asthma attack.
Now that the world has become gamified, he can play like a normal child, and his younger brother and sister love to hang around him more and more.
After collecting for a while, he felt his throat itchy and couldn't help coughing twice, but he didn't care.
When Lin Jiang's father heard his eldest son coughing, he remembered that the child had asthma before, so he asked, "Xiao Jiang, are you feeling unwell?"
Lin Jiang shook his head, "It's okay, Dad. I guess he choked on the cool air."
Seeing his son's composure, Lin Jiang's father didn't worry too much. "Okay, if you feel unwell, check your messages immediately. Don't be reluctant to take the medicine."
Lin Jiang nodded obediently. Some children in the city have been sick recently, but they usually get better after drinking one or two bottles of medicine. Lin Jiang's parents bought two bottles for each of their three children.
After working for an hour, Lin Jiang felt his head was a little heavy and his body was a little hot. He didn't think much about it and thought it might be because of the heat energy generated in his body due to working for a long time.
After a while, he couldn't help coughing a few times, then covered his mouth and pretended nothing was wrong and continued collecting. He didn't want his parents to worry about him anymore.
He took a look at his personal information and found a prompt that he was infected with the negative state of typhoid fever. He had no choice but to secretly take out a bottle of medicine and drink it.
I hope the medicine takes effect quickly and I get better.
Inside the city, Ke Qun was sitting in the pharmacy with a headache. He only had this one pharmacy, and he had chosen an intermediate talent NPC when it was first opened. After all, he had spent hundreds of gold coins to upgrade the city-state from level one to level two.
He already had several thousand gold coins in his backpack, and when he upgraded to level three, he spent a large sum of money to replenish the city defense weapons. But it was only level three, and he had spent so many gold coins. Who knew how much more money he would have to spend later.
But now he found that many children were easily infected with negative states, so he gave the pharmacy manager hundreds of tempering fruits to make medicine. The utilization rate of tempering fruits by this NPC was about 60%.
The medicine for treating typhoid fever produced in China may not be able to cure it with one bottle, and another bottle is needed. Even if one bottle is effective, it will take half a day to recover.
He knew that the medicine from Xuantian City would take effect immediately after taking a bottle, and he would recover in a few hours.
The NPC in the drugstore over there has high-level talents. If he wants to hire another one with high-level talents, he has to open another store. However, the income in winter is not much, so he is a little confused about whether to open it now or wait until the end of winter to see the situation.
"Ke Qun, what are you thinking about?" Feng Qi came here specially after hearing that he was here.
Feng Qi was originally in another city-state, but after the city lord disbanded the city-state, she came here. After all, she and Ke Qun were old lovers.
Ke Qun saw Feng Qi wearing a tight long skirt. Although it had long sleeves and the hem covered all parts of her legs, the dress still perfectly showed off Feng Qi's S-curve.
It doesn’t look like there is much fabric, just enough to wrap around the hot body, but it does have good warmth retention properties.
He was already used to this woman's behavior, and even in the cold winter, she was unwilling to wear those warm coats.
He said weakly, "I'm considering opening another pharmacy. The intermediate-level pharmacy NPCs aren't as efficient at utilizing raw materials as the high-level ones. If this continues, I'll be wasting all the resources and money I've earned."
Feng Qi twisted her slender waist and walked over to sit next to Ke Qun. "It's just about this matter. If you think about it, I can help you."
Feng Qi is just a small rich woman. Even though she has the order to build a city, she is unwilling to be the city lord. She just lives a carefree life in the city. Even Ke Qun envies her.
"What do you want?"
Feng Qi covered her mouth and chuckled, saying in a coquettish tone: "Really, can't I help you for free? After all, we have been in love before."
Apart from anything else, Feng Qi is pretty, has a gorgeous appearance and a hot body, otherwise Ke Qun would not be in a relationship with her.
"Are you sure? Opening a shop and hiring NPCs will cost dozens of gold coins. Do you still have a lot of gold coins?" Ke Qun asked uncertainly.
This woman spent a lot of money in the game, but that was all equipment, and it was really unclear how much gold coins she had.
Feng Qi stroked his chest with her fair hand and said, "Don't worry, it's enough for me to spend for several years." Gold coins are usually obtained through lotteries and are the easiest to obtain in the lottery column.
She had won many prizes for some beautiful clothes. She just liked to dress up her game character beautifully.
I never thought that one day I would wear these beautiful clothes in the game.
Ke Qun felt that someone was willing to spend money on him, so he was not uncomfortable. "Okay, I'll treat you to a meal when the business is ready."
Feng Qi just smiled coquettishly, "Okay, you have to treat me to the most expensive meal."
She had equipment, gold coins, and no shortage of weapons. She was lucky enough to get a career card at the beginning of the apocalypse, but she didn't get a skill card. However, this kind of life was what she had always dreamed of.
Many handsome guys in the city are attracted to her, and the reason is simple: she is generous.
Ke Qun nodded, "Of course, a beauty like you deserves the most expensive one."
He knew that Feng Qi had always been harassed by many people, but what did it matter? The world was already like this, so who would care so much?
