Chapter 24: I Still Have Something Good
When the driver heard that Xu Xinxin's family had two superpowers and another one had joined the superpower army, he immediately stood in awe and nodded, saying, "That's right. There have been a lot of superpowers in the wilderness recently, so they are really busy."
He thought the little girl had nowhere to go and lived here alone, but it turned out that she was accompanied by her family.
Those who are capable like to enclose a larger piece of land and plant more things, but wouldn't that make it hard for the little girl?
"Then you have to buy more things recently. It's going to rain in two days, and prices will go up. If you don't buy more, it will be even more expensive later."
"Who said it wasn't?" Xu Xinxin responded naturally.
In recent years, it has not been easy for everyone. Those who have awakened their superpowers are running around every day, trying to earn as much as they can.
It is very common for ordinary people who have not awakened their special powers to stay at home and do trivial things.
So the driver did not doubt Xu Xinxin's words, thinking that she lived with her mother and brother and only went out to run errands during the day.
The bus swayed forward for several stops, and people working in the fields got on one after another.
All these people returned to the city to rest.
People who rent land outside Jiangcheng basically live in the city and usually travel back and forth by bus.
An auntie held a hoe in one hand and wiped her sweat with a towel in the other. She panted and said, "It's sunny today, over 20 degrees. It's so hot that it's killing me."
A lady next to him was also fanning herself with her hands and said, "Yes, it's so hot in March, and I'm afraid it will be even hotter in the summer. Now there's no electricity, and even the air conditioner and fan can't be used. How can we spend the summer?"
"It's still the same as last year. We all go to the mall to sleep on the floor at night. There's electricity there, we can use fans, and even air conditioning when it's hottest."
"Stop talking about summer. This rainy season is hard to get through. We're almost out of food at home."
"That's right. Vegetable prices have gone up recently. My family has been eating mutated rice and vegetables of level -21 for several days. There's a bitter taste in our mouths."
"My family is the same. We finally saved some money and were going to buy more rice in a couple of days, but the rainy season came early..."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Xu Xinxin also began to worry about Xia Tian.
Her site No. 333 is far from the shopping mall. If she runs there to sleep on the floor every night, she won't have to work for the whole day.
She still had to save more money to build a better insulated house before summer, and then build a big ice house...
But how much does it cost to build a big ice cellar?
She will go and ask Boss Sun later.
When the bus arrived at the Supply and Marketing Mart, Xu Xinxin still hadn't checked the ingredients on the first floor.
Recently, common plants have mutated in large numbers, and almost all plants on the market are mutated plants. If she were to take out ordinary quality ingredients, she would probably have to go through the inspection area.
However, she did not go directly to Sun Kunpeng's store. Instead, she asked the brothers and sisters who were checking vegetables about the recent prices of vegetables and aquatic products, as well as the prices of building greenhouses. Only after she had an idea in mind did she go to Sun Kunpeng's store.
"Let me tell you, the quality of this batch of cabbage is '-9', and the degree of mutation is already very low..."
Before Xu Xinxin walked into Sun Kunpeng's shop, she saw Grandma Cai coming again with a basket of cabbage next to her.
"Grandma, my shop is all about high-end quality. Even if I sell some ordinary quality wood, I won't sell mutant vegetables. You should take these vegetables back."
It turned out that Grandma Cai came to deliver vegetables again.
"Boss Sun, Grandma Cai, hello."
When they arrived at the store door, Xu Xinxin greeted them enthusiastically.
Grandma Cai was very impressed by Xu Xinxin and joked, "Little girl, here you are. Did you find some ordinary quality wild vegetables today?"
"Grandma Cai, how did you know?"
Xu Xinxin responded in a surprised tone, then stretched her neck like a thief and said in a low voice, "This time, I dug up some good stuff in the ground. Do you want to close the door first?"
Sun Kunpeng had bought things from her several times. When he heard her say that there were good goods, he thought they were just wild vegetables of ordinary quality, and immediately ran over happily.
"It's okay, it's okay. Come in. No one can see you in the store."
Seeing that he said so, Xu Xinxin did not force him. She walked into a more secluded corner of the store and took out the shepherd's purse she had picked today.
When Grandma Cai saw them, she said happily, "Oh, they are really wild vegetables. Girl, you don't live by the river, do you? Where do you get so many wild vegetables?"
"It's so dangerous along the river. Someone in my family has awakened the wood-related ability, so I'll just grow some wild vegetables. The good quality ones will be sold, and the poor quality ones will be used as fertilizers." Xu Xinxin said calmly.
Sometimes, telling a little lie can save you a lot of trouble.
Sun Kunpeng, who was standing by, was also happy when he saw the wild vegetables. He immediately took out a quality inspection instrument and scanned the shepherd's purse.
As expected, the quality is "0", which is really rare.
"The price of vegetables has increased recently. The price of ordinary quality vegetables has also increased from 5 points per kilogram to 10 points per kilogram. You have 78 kilograms of shepherd's purse here, which is 780 points."
As Sun Kunpeng said this, he was about to transfer money to Xu Xinxin.
Wait a minute, Xu Xinxin immediately stopped him and said, "I still have something to take out."
When Sun Kunpeng and Grandma Cai heard that Xu Xinxin had something good, they were delighted and came over to ask, "Do you have anything else that is also of ordinary quality?"
"Um".
Xu Xinxin nodded, and then took out the big cherries under their expectant gaze.
"Cherry..."
The moment she saw the big cherries, Grandma Cai almost screamed out loud, but she quickly realized something, covered her mouth with her hands, looked around, and immediately found a basket to cover the cherries.
Sun Kunpeng next to him also gasped in shock.
It turned out to be cherries, and they were such round and plump fruits. He hadn’t eaten them for many years.
Sun Kunpeng couldn't help swallowing his saliva and asked in disbelief: "Is this also of ordinary quality?"
Xu Xinxin nodded: "These are all ordinary big cherries."
The cherry tree won’t give you big cherries of evolved quality.
Alas. Thinking of this, Xu Xinxin felt a little bit sorry.
In a few days, when the rainy season is over, she will definitely go to the cherry tree more often to improve her favorability, so as to eat big cherries of evolved quality next year.
But for Sun Kunpeng and Grandma Cai, it was the first time they had ever seen cherries of even ordinary quality.
They immediately squatted down and secretly measured the quality. When they saw the value "0", they all laughed so hard that they couldn't stop.
Sun Kunpeng even said, "Sister, to be honest, you are my adopted sister from now on. If you need anything from me, just let me know."
Grandma Cai also said: "You are a clever little girl. The first time I saw you, I felt that we were destined to be together. I didn't expect it to be true."
As she spoke, she took Xu Xinxin's hand and gently patted the back of her hand twice.
"Boss Sun, Grandma Cai, let's chat later. I still have something good to show you."
This time, after hearing Xu Xinxin's words, Sun Kunpeng could no longer stay and immediately ran to the store door.
"Wait for me, I'll close the store door first."
