Chapter 052 Chapter 52 I Need Something
[Ding——Happiness +100]
An Qing looked up at Jin Tao who was sitting in the hotel lobby eating a roujiamo. She had a good memory and recognized at a glance that this was the staff member she had met in the security department office area when she first came to this world and returned to the base from outside.
Those who can work in the Security Department do not have major mental problems, and their mental state is among the most stable except for the special teams.
Stability means that the increase in happiness value will not be very low but generally not too high either.
She really didn't expect to get 100 points of happiness from Jin Tao.
In a roujiamo, although the flour needed to make a white flour pancake requires 18 happiness points per kilogram, one kilogram of flour can make almost one pancake, which means that one pancake requires about 3 happiness points.
The braised egg is 2 points, the duck leg is 8 points, and the cost price of the whole roujiamo is actually 13 points.
She had previously considered the cost of 13 points, and the happiness value she could probably get should be between 20 and 50. After all, the previous self-heating rice and self-heating hot pot were like this.
Therefore, An Qing was a little surprised when she suddenly gained 100 points of happiness.
Of course, whether this is an isolated case or just the average remains to be seen.
But, isn’t the price of 30 coins a bit high?
Although making Roujiamo was a bit troublesome, An Qing still felt a little guilty as the price had more than doubled. The main reason was that she had made a mistake when calculating the cost price. The price of white flour pancakes was calculated based on the price of one pound of flour. She thought that eighteen plus ten would be twenty-eight, so she just rounded it up to an even number.
It's not that An Qing treats money like dirt, it's mainly because the base has been supplying food for the past two days, and the points were directly transferred to An Qing's card by the Finance Department.
Today's 6.9 million has been received, and the current balance on her card is more than 10 million, of course, this also includes the more than 600,000 that the original owner had previously deposited.
It's not good to have too much money in her hands. Too much money will just become a string of meaningless numbers, especially since she feels that in this world, apart from renting novels and renting a house, she has no expenses at all.
In other words, the coins gathered here cannot flow.
She was not a smart person, but she knew that money had to flow and be held tightly in her hands. A little money was fine, but too much would cause problems for the base.
She is not yet clear about what specific problems it will cause, but she has a vague awareness of this from occasionally browsing some things during the era of the Internet explosion in her previous life.
She sold the food she obtained with the help of the system to the base, which was already very profitable, so it would be inappropriate to increase the price.
An Qing pondered for a moment and walked towards Jin Tao.
Jin Tao looked up and met An Qing's eyes. As An Qing's previous host, Jin Tao vaguely knew something. Although she didn't know it clearly, she could guess some of it.
She swallowed the food in her mouth and smiled at An Qing, "An Yiqing, long time no see."
An Qing nodded and said with a smile, "Call me An Qing."
Jin Tao was a little surprised, but she didn't ask anything. She nodded and agreed. Seeing that An Qing had no intention of leaving, she was a little confused, "What's the matter?"
An Qing nodded. "I made a mistake when I priced the Roujiamo just now. Do you think I should just refund you some coins or give you the food?"
Jin Tao was stunned. To be honest, she didn't think that the roujiamo at 30 coins was expensive. This roujiamo was obviously more delicious and filling than the braised eggs and bread she had eaten before.
However, since An Qing had said that, she hurriedly asked, "How much is the Roujiamo?"
An Qing: "It should be 13 coins. I can refund you 17 coins now, or give you 17 coins for other food."
Jin Tao's salary is not low, but her savings after years of work are not much. A lot of her savings have been spent on chewing strips. Chewing strips are expensive, and she uses three a day, so her current savings are less than 100,000.
Jin Tao was very happy that the food prices could be cheaper.
She looked at the remaining half of the roujiamo in her hand, swallowed her saliva and asked, "What kind of food can I take? Can I have the roujiamo?"
An Qing shook her head: "No, this won't work. One roujiamo per person, no more. Other foods are fine."
She opened the system panel, looked at the items on the shelf, and said, "I can give you two cartons of milk and a loaf of bread for exactly 17 coins. How about that?"
Jin Tao had eaten bread before, but she had never drunk milk. She hesitated for a moment, "How about instant noodles? I remember instant noodles were 3 points a bag?"
An Qing: "Instant noodles are fine too. How about I give you five bags of instant noodles and a sausage?"
Jin Tao nodded immediately: "Okay, thank you, An Qing."
She smiled with her eyes curved, and was obviously very happy.
After all, there is no one in the entire base who doesn't want to buy food, and they will buy it no matter how expensive the price is, but the current situation is that even if you have some coins, you can't buy it.
Now that she bought a roujiamo, she could also take back five bags of instant noodles. Of course, Jin Tao was very happy.
An Qing gave Jin Tao instant noodles and sausages. After sending Jin Tao away, she immediately asked someone to change the price at the door to 13 coins.
It was also because Jintao arrived early, because soon there were more people getting off work. Many people saw that the restaurant was open and ran over to see what was going on. When they saw that it was really open and there was a sign at the door announcing today's purchase limit, they didn't care what Roujiamo was at all and lined up to buy it first.
Soon the restaurant became busy.
An Qing sat at the bar, holding a pen in her hand, sketching on the paper bit by bit. She had never learned to paint, so her painting was not very good, but it didn't matter, as long as she could get the general idea.
Then she described what she had drawn in as much detail as possible.
With pictures and text, it is easy to understand what she needs.
After An Qing finished drawing, she stretched, twisted her sore neck, looked at each picture one by one, and made sure that there was no problem before putting them away.
An Qing left the noisy restaurant and went to a quieter place outside. She took out her communicator and called Wei Xunyi.
"An Qing? What's the matter?" Wei Xunyi asked.
"I need some things. I've already drawn them. Could you please send someone over to get them? I'll have the research institute help me make them as soon as possible." She didn't need much: a frying pan, various types of basins, and various knives, chopsticks, spoons, and spatulas...
This time she filled in all the missing parts one by one.
Then there are steamers and a variety of different steaming grids.
An Qing remembers that when she was a child, there were no electric rice cookers to steam rice. At that time, her mother used an aluminum steamer to steam rice. When steaming rice, she added water into the steamer, put a steaming rack in the pot, then poured the washed rice into the steaming rack, placed it on the steaming rack, and finally covered the pot with a lid to steam it.
The steamed rice is moderately soft and hard, tastes particularly fragrant, and can be added to the pot with rice soup.
An Qing didn't know how much water to add to the pot, but as long as the pot was made first, she could try it slowly and find the right water level after doing it a few times.
Wei Xunyi: "..."
The thought of the grumpy researcher at the institute gave him a headache, and he couldn't help asking, "I remember reading a book before that said supermarkets before the apocalypse sold everything, right? Don't you have these things in your supermarket?"
An Qing: "..."
After a while, she said quietly, "Yes, but after the pot shelves are unlocked, most of the pots are still blocked and need to be unlocked by completing tasks."
Wei Xunyi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Compared to facing the researcher's irritability, it would be best to solve the problem here if An Qing could solve it.
The main reason is that the research institute is really busy now.
"What mission?" Wei Xunyi remembered some tasks issued in the system document. Some were simple, some were difficult, but he didn't think it was a difficult task. If An Qing couldn't complete it, he could send someone to assist her in completing the task.
An Qing: "I have to make a new dish to unlock a pot, and this dish must be completely new and cannot have appeared before."
Wei Xunyi paused and frowned.
"I just made roujiamo, but the cookware shelf hasn't unlocked any new pots yet, so it's obviously not a new dish." An Qing looked at the system panel, which was all covered in dust except for the wok. It seemed that what she thought before was right.
Wei Xunyi opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment.
An Qing continued, "However, there is a type of pot you can buy here. It's a wok, and it costs 30 million happiness points."
Wei Xunyi's breath was choked, and the hand holding the communicator trembled uncontrollably.
Thirty million! Is that enough to feed the entire base for several meals?
Wei Xunyi took a deep breath and said, "I understand. I will send someone to get the blueprints. You can explain it to them in detail and I will send it to the research institute later."
An Qing curved her eyes and smiled, "Okay, thank you, Secretary Wei. Oh, there's one more thing."
Wei Xunyi was almost traumatized by her, "You say."
An Qing: "It's about the salaries of the Blazing Team and Muchen. From now on, I'll be responsible for their salaries, so the base won't have to worry about it."
Wei Xunyi didn't expect An Qing to say this. In fact, he was just discussing with the boss whether giving An Qing so many points would put a burden on the base.
After all, the base cannot produce point coins endlessly. The number of point coins circulating in the base is limited. Once there are too many point coins, it is easy to cause the base economy to collapse.
And there really aren't many places where An Qing needs to spend money in the base.
But if this matter was brought up rashly, he was afraid that An Qing would have other ideas in her mind, so Wei Xunyi was worried about this matter.
Now that she was thinking about using the points, Wei Xunyi felt relieved and agreed: "Okay, I understand. I will inform the Finance Department about this."
After hanging up the phone, the roujiamo in the restaurant had been sold out.
The main reason is that Roujiamo is very convenient to sell. Even if there are no seats in the restaurant, you can buy it and eat it standing outside, or take it back to the dormitory to eat.
An Qing left the Fire Team to clean the restaurant and went back.
The happiness value gradually increased. Looking at the rapid increase in happiness value, An Qing no longer had the initial excitement and could treat it normally.
So, she turned off the system prompt sound again.
I guess the chicken legs distributed by the base have arrived, and many people have already eaten them, so the happiness value increased rapidly in the afternoon. It has now reached over five million. Looking at the numbers that are still soaring, I wonder if it can reach over thirty million by tomorrow morning.
The main reason for this idea was that the Roujiamo she ate today gave her the confidence.
Except for the Roujiamo given to the Fire Team, the happiness value of the 500 Roujiamo sold generally increased quite a lot, with the lowest being 70 points and the highest being 500 points.
The range of numbers is too large, but 100 and 200 are generally the most common.
These 500 roujiamo brought An Qing 123210 points of happiness.
Adding the four branches that have already opened, who knows, when I wake up tomorrow morning, my happiness value may exceed 30 million?
If she breaks 30 million tomorrow, she should be able to buy a wok the day after tomorrow.
An Qing took a shower, climbed onto the bed, took out the novel she had read in the hotel during the day from under her pillow, turned to the page she had read before, and lay on the bed to read it with relish.
