Chapter 203 Bronze VIP
[Dear Bronze VIP customer, I am the speed robot serving you today]
Interstellar Express will automatically upgrade customers to VIP status based on their order volume. Previously, Xiyue's order volume exceeded 100, making her the most basic White Stone member.
Today her order volume exceeded 500, and she was automatically promoted to a Bronze Member. When she accumulates more than 1,000 orders, she will be promoted to a Bronze 1-Star Member.
However, the higher you go, the more difficult it becomes. The next level after Bronze 1 Star is Bronze 2 Star, but the required order quantity jumps directly to 5,000 orders. Then Bronze 3 Star requires 10,000 orders.
There are many more later on, but Xi Yue hasn't researched that high a level yet.
The Bronze 1-star service is essentially twice as efficient as the original White Stone membership.
When this green robot transforms into its express delivery packaging mode, it has two packaging stations, which doubles its efficiency compared to the white robot.
Another important point is that as the membership level increases, the delivery fee will be discounted accordingly.
White Stone members get a 9.9% discount, and Bronze 1-star members get a 9.8% discount. Although it may not seem like much, for merchants with a large number of orders, even a small discount per order adds up to a significant amount.
However, Xiyue still doesn't cover shipping costs this time, but the buyer will pay the discounted shipping fee.
Because of the upgraded membership level, although the number of orders this time was much larger than last time, it only took a little longer to pack all the orders.
Once the robot had taken all the orders, Xi Yue quickly contacted Ning Xuan.
I need more food containing radiation. What do you need?
Ning Xuan read Xi Yue's message, thought for a moment, and replied:
The main problem is that I don't know what you have there. The mini cleaning robot from last time was quite useful. Could you bring me a few more? This time, it would be best if it could be easily concealed on a white wall.
Do you have any other types of robots? You could tell me about them so I can see if I can use them. Besides robots, could you also tell me about anything else you have?
By the way, I would have bought the gold from before if it were available.
Xi Yue breathed a sigh of relief after reading Ning Xuan's reply. It's good that there's a need; the worst thing is not having one.
Xi Yue decided to buy a few more mini cleaning robots for Ning Xuan. Ning Xuan mentioned that they could blend well with white walls, so she specially ordered mini cleaning robots in the shape of white paper from the seller.
It is called "white paper" not only because it is as thin and light as white paper, but more importantly, because its color can automatically adjust to its surroundings like a chameleon, so that it can blend into its environment as much as possible.
Ning Xuan was very satisfied after reading the introduction of the paper-shaped miniature robot. This was perfect. It would be suitable for both her and Lin Yuhan's purposes, as it would make them easy to hide.
Ning Xuan ordered ten at once, and then, according to Xi Yue's needs, she told Han Dongling to increase the amount collected.
After saying that, she thought of another question and quickly asked Xi Yue.
[You seem to have some equipment that can detect radiation levels. Is this something we can trade?]
Xi Yue replied quickly.
Yes, it's available for trading, but I don't have any on hand right now; it will have to wait until later.
Ning Xuan understood; she guessed they were going to do some shopping as well.
【Later is fine. With this, it will be easier for us to collect plants that suit your needs.】
After reading Ning Xuan's information, Xi Yue became even more certain that Ning Xuan's situation was quite different from her own, and that the plants there emitted radiation but they didn't have the equipment to detect it.
In fact, Han Dongling does have machines to detect contamination from mutated plants, but the number is very small, and they are mainly controlled by the government; private individuals have virtually none.
Regardless of the degree of contamination, even those with superpowers cannot use it for a long time, as they are easily contaminated. At best, they will suffer from skin ulcers that will heal over time; at worst, it will endanger their lives.
So ever since they learned that the plants had mutated and were no longer edible, the survivors of the apocalypse have been eating supplies produced before the apocalypse. Thanks to the overproduction before the apocalypse, the supplies have not been exhausted even after so many years.
But that's about it, because some supplies can't be stored for that long; they've already rotted underground.
Therefore, the resources for survival, especially food, are currently extremely scarce.
No wonder the members who joined the Spark Base all consider it their home and none of them want to leave, because the conditions here are just too good.
The points system is cheap and supplies are plentiful. They have never gone hungry since they arrived here, nor do they have to risk their lives to search for supplies. Ordinary survivors without special abilities can earn points by working in the base.
So, whenever Xi Yue had free time, she would browse the interstellar online store, and when she saw a product that she thought was suitable for exchange, she would ask Ning Xuan if she wanted it, and if so, she would place an order.
Ning Xuan successively received miniature cleaning robots, miniature underground detectors, anti-radiation suits, radiation detectors...
She, Lin Yuhan, and Han Dongling shared the cleaning robots, as their respective worlds needed them more.
Yunxi doesn't need it; a simple cleaning spell will do the trick. It's about the same for Wang Shulan.
Of them, Lin Yuhan needed this the most. With this miniature cleaning robot, she could maintain the cleanliness of the factory's production workshop at all times, which was even cleaner than manual cleaning, and it would not leave any dead corners. It could clean even the smallest gap.
With the addition of anti-radiation clothing and detection equipment, Han Dongling's collection efficiency has increased significantly, with a much larger daily collection volume. However, Xi Yue is worried that if she uploads too many samples, it might attract attention, so she intentionally controls the frequency of her uploads and temporarily limits each batch to less than 1,000 samples.
At the same time, in order to cover her tracks and in case she attracts attention later, she can also find an excuse for the source of her ingredients.
So Xi Yue started going out again, pretending to collect plants.
High-end ingredients are expensive, and ordinary people don't buy them every day. Those who can buy them two or three times a month are considered to be in good financial condition. So, apart from a small number of people who are very wealthy and wait to buy every day, most of the fans of Xiyue's store buy from her once and then come back to wait for her again the following month.
However, the fan base is so large that no matter how many items Xiyue puts on the shelves each day, they still sell out instantly.
As Xi Yue accumulated more and more star coins, the prices of the goods she viewed on the interstellar network became increasingly expensive. One day, she took a fancy to a robot and thought Ning Xuan would definitely like it, so she quickly sent Ning Xuan the robot's description.
