Today, water has been transformed into an extremely scarce and precious resource.
Players who had a certain amount of water no longer put their drinking water up for sale on the trading channel; instead, they traded it privately.
After all, the water price set in the game is far too low, which is far from meeting the expectations of players who want to make a fortune by selling water resources.
Jiang An curiously checked the current water price, and what he saw shocked him greatly.
Faced with such an astonishing price, she made a decision without hesitation—to take out one of her own water storage devices.
Last night, Jiang An came up with a clever idea to use up her stored water by selling ice, but it ultimately failed.
The reason is simply that the small ice maker's energy consumption capacity is far too limited.
At this moment, Jiang An was leisurely reclining on the comfortable and soft sofa, with a plate of carefully cut, high-quality watermelon placed beside him.
Holding a small, delicate toothpick in her slender fingers, she savored the delicious food with a contented expression, taking one bite after another, thoroughly enjoying herself.
On the other side of the sofa were a little turtle and a little mouse.
The two little ones were each holding a plate, making "huffing and puffing" sounds as they wolfed down the watermelon that had already been cut into pieces.
It's worth noting that Jiang An has never been the type to eat alone. He usually shares his delicious food with the two little ones without hesitation.
Because deep down, she already considered these two little ones as important as family.
In this game world full of crises and unknowns, where one feels incredibly lonely and helpless, the little turtle has always been there for her, offering warmth and comfort.
Then, the little mice joined their ranks.
Now, they have become an indispensable part of Jiang An's life.
At the same time, various rapidly moving information kept flashing on the screen in front of Jiang An, but her hands never stopped moving.
He was eating watermelon with his left hand and inputting information into the screen with his right.
In that fleeting moment, the large water storage tank, specifically designed for storing drinking water, was instantly sold out!
"Oh my! Finally, they're all sold out!" Jiang An let out a long sigh of relief, then stretched out his arms comfortably and gave a big, lazy yawn.
Then, she excitedly opened her wallet on the trading channel, her eyes quickly scanning the numbers displayed inside.
However, that fleeting glance was enough to leave her completely stunned.
Although she knew in her heart that the amount of money she would get from this sale would definitely not be small, she never expected it to be so much!
A full 10 tons of drinking water, which is equivalent to a whopping 20,000 jin (10,000 kg)!
Even in the vast and populous District 1632, such a large volume of transactions was enough to cause a small sensation and ripples.
Unfortunately, this little commotion quickly disappeared without a trace, like a pebble thrown into the ocean.
However, there is no doubt that the profits generated by this transaction are enormous!
That's tens of millions of transaction points!
For Jiang An, this was definitely the moment she had the most trading points in her life.
At this moment, if time could be turned back to when she first arrived at the auction house, if she had possessed such a large number of transaction points back then, she probably wouldn't have had to grit her teeth and endure the pain of giving up those special items that she had longed for but couldn't afford.
Thinking about all this, Jiang An's already excited heart started pounding like a drum.
Please be understanding of her, this "country bumpkin" who hasn't seen much of the world. After all, as an ordinary person, she has never witnessed such amazing wealth before!
After a long period of time, Jiang An's mood gradually returned to calm.
Jiang An looked at the two little ones with a big smile and asked excitedly, "My darlings, today is a special day! Little Turtle and Little Mouse, tell Mommy, is there any gift you particularly want? Or is there any food you particularly want to eat?"
Upon hearing this, the little turtle, who had been lazily lounging on the sofa after finishing its watermelon, instantly perked up, its eyes shining like twinkling stars in the night sky.
It stretched its neck impatiently, waved its short forelimbs, and shouted loudly, "Mommy, Mommy, I want lots and lots of fun toys! And those shiny and pretty things too... Hmm... Oh right, as for food, I want ice marrow the most, I want five ice marrows!"
After saying that, he smacked his lips, as if he was already imagining the wonderful taste of the delicious ice marrow melting in his mouth.
Hearing the little turtle's request, Jiang An couldn't help but chuckle. She gently tapped the little turtle's head with a finger and scolded, "Oh dear, you little rascal, you're really asking for the moon! But, since Mommy's in such a good mood today, I'll grant you this little wish!"
As he spoke, he poked the little turtle's forehead a few times with his finger, but his face was always full of a doting smile.
You should know that this ice marrow is not an ordinary food, but a rare item that can only be found by chance in the deep sea.
Now, every time one Ice Marrow is used, the quantity decreases by one, so Jiang An usually cherishes these Ice Marrows very much.
Even when it comes to my little turtle, I only give it one each time I go out.
But for the little turtle, a single piece of ice marrow was just a small treat, since ice marrow was its absolute favorite food!
After calming the greedy little turtle, Jiang An turned her gaze to the little mouse that was jumping around nearby and asked gently, "So, what does our lovely little mouse want?"
When Jiang An asked the question, the little mouse just squeaked excitedly, "Squeak! Squeak squeak!"
It kept barking and waving its arms and legs, looking quite adorable, but unfortunately Jiang An couldn't understand what it was saying at all.
Left with no other option, Jiang An turned to the little turtle, who was acting as a translator, hoping it could help interpret the little mouse's meaning.
