Chapter 184
After checking the house and finding that everything was the same as before, they went to the front of the store, opened the door and returned to the driver's seat.
It feels like there is a car front installed in front of your house, but from the outside, it is just a standard RV.
Tang Yu'an closed the door and chose the first option. After opening it again, the space behind the door turned back into the previous 2x4 carriage.
He closed it again, selected the second option, and opened it again to return to his familiar home.
“Haha, this is so fun!”
The young man had a lot of fun.
Zhou Qi also curled up the corners of his mouth. This way, he could finally carry the grocery store around with him - of course, he had to wait until he learned to drive.
I don't know if there's a protective barrier there. If I drive into the wall, will the RV be damaged?
While Zhou Qi was thinking, Tang Yu'an sat down again, opened the decoration panel and thought about how to decorate the RV.
After switching to an RV, the "grocery store water" can still be used. As long as you turn on the faucets in the bathroom and kitchen, water will flow normally.
However, electricity is not an option.
Originally, they had electricity from a generator, but after switching to RV mode, the circuit between the carriage and the grocery store was not connected.
So once the remaining power of the RV is used up, the power will be cut off directly.
Of course, now that he has opened up the grocery store space, he just needs to leave the door open and pull a long wire into the grocery store to charge, but this is a bit too troublesome.
He remembered that the hardcover section had "grocery store electricity"... and he soon found the place.
[Do you want to deduct 5,000 points and 600 store popularity points to unlock the "Grocery Store Electricity Usage" function for "Ping An Grocery Store"?]
Tang Yu'an naturally chose "yes".
After the deduction is successful, a 3D picture of the RV is generated on the interface, and he can modify the circuit or add sockets.
In the mall interface, there is also an exchange for electricity used in grocery stores. 1 point can buy 1 kilowatt-hour of electricity, which is quite cost-effective.
Noticing that there were no lights in the car, Tang Yu'an opened the furniture mall to buy some.
After a simple decoration, the whole RV finally became bright, and of course his points balance has returned to more than 230,000.
But it doesn’t matter, it will be back in a few days anyway.
Tang Yu'an was just thinking about buying some more furniture when the car suddenly rushed forward and hit the rocks in front.
The violent shock startled Tang Yu'an.
Fortunately, they were protected by a protective barrier, and there was water outside, so neither the front of the car nor the rocks that were hit were damaged. It was just that they were uncomfortable sitting in the car due to inertia.
Tang Yu'an quickly fastened his seat belt and then looked at Zhou Qi.
"Are you okay?" Zhou Qi looked a little embarrassed for once.
Tang Yu'an shook his head, looked at him and asked, "Brother Xiaoqi, have you learned to drive?"
Zhou Qi couldn't help but cough lightly, "I just know how to start it..."
"Then you'll learn it quickly!" Tang Yu'an gave him a thumbs up.
He said that nothing could stump Brother Xiaoqi!
Zhou Qi looked at him, the embarrassment on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a faint smile. He nodded and said, "Well, I'll practice some more."
"good!"
At this time, Tang Yu'an glanced at the map and saw that the light spots belonging to Mo Ke and Blue Moon were approaching Store No. 5. He quickly said, "Brother Xiaoqi, let's go back first."
Otherwise Mo Ke would not be able to find them and cause unnecessary trouble.
Although Zhou Qi wanted to continue practicing driving, he also knew the priorities, so he got up and returned to the car with Tang Yu'an, leaving only a night light, and then teleported back to Lanhu Town.
As soon as they arrived, they heard a knock on the door downstairs.
Tang Yu'an opened the window and said hello to those downstairs: "Brother Mo, you're back!"
"Yes, Aliang said he would take us to eat grilled fish, so come down quickly." Mo Ke shouted at them from downstairs.
"Okay."
It was already dinner time, and Tang Yu'an was indeed feeling hungry.
So he closed the attic window again, then took a carpet and laid it on the teleportation array. After covering it up, he went downstairs with Zhou Qi.
I'll find a way to build a basement tomorrow, set up a protective barrier, and then move the teleportation array in. This will be safer and more secure.
The view from the lake is even more beautiful than from the cabin.
Tang Yu'an watched for a while, then bent down to pick up a stone and skip it on the lake. Seeing this, Mo Ke joined in, and soon attracted several young people who were also eating by the lake.
In the end, Tang Yu'an won the victory by jumping the farthest and the most times.
“You’re so awesome!”
"Where are you from?"
Young people are not as indifferent as older people and are also curious about the outside world, so Tang Yu'an started chatting with them.
"We came from the deserted city..."
Soon, Tang Yu'an became friends with these young people and understood some of their needs.
"I think bicycles will have a big market in Lanhu Town."
After dinner, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi sat by the lake and chatted, talking about the information they had learned.
"The Lanhu people are also happy to trade for other delicious foods."
The emergence of refined rice has made the Lanhu people realize that in addition to Lanhu leaves and fruits, there are other delicious plants, so the demand in this regard is not low.
Zhou Qi nodded, but this time they came to Lanhu Town, in addition to doing business, their main purpose was to find out what happened to the mother tree of Lanhu.
The mother tree of Lanhu is the foundation of Lanhu Town, and there must be no problems with it.
Tang Yu'an looked around and carefully controlled the wind energy around him.
Sound is transmitted through air, and wind is flowing air. They have previously experimented and found that controlling the wind around them while speaking can achieve a good sound insulation effect.
It is impossible to eavesdrop on what they are saying unless you get within one meter of them.
"Should we go directly to Lord Lan Hu and ask?" Tang Yu'an whispered, "Just tell him we've received a mission from a mysterious merchant?"
They will do business in Lanhu Town in the future, so how can the goods appear out of thin air? This is definitely impossible to hide.
Moreover, Lan Yunqing already knew that the healing potion was related to the mysterious merchant, and Chi Hao had taken it out before...
They are Chi Hao's friends, and they came here to open a shop and do business. How could anyone not guess that they are also employees of the mysterious businessman?
Before Zhou Qi could answer, there was a sudden commotion behind him.
They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a strange figure who had appeared by the lake at some point. He was standing about ten meters away from them and looking towards them.
He was a tall man, his long silver-blue hair gently blown by the wind, giving him an extremely moving beauty under the moonlight.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi were both stunned.
"He is so handsome..." Tang Yu'an couldn't help but say.
Zhou Qi came back to his senses, stared at the man and guessed, "Lord Lan Hu?"
"Ah? Is he the lord?"
While they were talking, Lan Yunqing had already come to their side and said softly, "Hello."
Even the voice is so nice!
Tang Yu'an stood up quickly. Thinking that this beautiful woman was now his top seller, he couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.
"Hello!" the boy responded.
Zhou Qi also stood up. He stood behind Tang Yu'an and looked at Lan Yunqing with a hint of vigilance.
Lan Yunqing was also examining them. After a long moment, he looked at Tang Yu'an and asked, "Dongtu Datang?"
Tang Yu'an was stunned.
Lan Yunqing looked at Zhou Qi again, "Handsome porridge?"
Zhou Qi: “…”
Zhou Qi: “…………”
He resisted the urge to cover his face and looked at Lan Yunqing with pretended calmness.
Unexpectedly, they only told Lan Maolin their surnames, but Lan Yunqing matched their identities and exposed them directly.
Zhou Qi thought for a moment and whispered, "Cloud Eagle?"
Lan Yunqing curled the corners of his lips and shook his head slightly.
Tang Yu'an, who was stunned beside him, had already understood what Zhou Qi meant and guessed, "Changqing?"
Lan Yunqing shook his head again, then glanced at the crowd that gradually gathered around him, hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's talk somewhere else."
Then, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi only felt the scenery in front of their eyes flash, and when they stood firm again, the surroundings had turned into a quiet woodland at night.
The two teenagers couldn't help but look at each other.
This ability to teleport instantly is so cool!
"I am the lord of Lanhu Town." At this time, Lan Yunqing introduced himself, "My name is Lan Yunqing."
"Are you also an employee of the mysterious businessman?" Tang Yu'an asked.
Lan Yunqing nodded and asked another question that concerned him, "Lu Rulan is Chi Hao, right?"
"You have to ask him yourself." Tang Yu'an said that he should not betray his friends.
Lan Yunqing smiled, he had already guessed the answer.
"So you are Hong Shenghuo?" Seeing that the performance was almost over, Zhou Qi finally pointed out Lan Yunqing's identity.
Lan Yunqing nodded. He looked at the two young men and asked directly, "Are you really coming to Lanhu Town just to open a shop and do business?"
Tang Yu'an couldn't help but look at Zhou Qi.
Zhou Qi hesitated for a moment, then followed Tang Yu'an's previous suggestion and said, "We received a mission. The mysterious businessman asked us to investigate the situation in the Blue Hu Forest."
Lan Yunqing couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Since I'm also an employee, why doesn't He...that Lord issue the task directly to me?"
After obtaining good varieties of brown rice and wheat, as well as healing potions, Lan Yunqing's attitude towards the mysterious businessman changed unconsciously.
Although there was still some vigilance in my heart, I felt more gratitude and respect.
Facing Lan Yunqing's questioning, Zhou Qi remained calm. He said, "We cannot guess what that gentleman is thinking..."
He paused before continuing, "Perhaps, you haven't earned enough trust and respect from that master yet."
Lan Yunqing nodded, accepting this statement.
After all, he had only been an employee of the mysterious businessman for less than half a month, and it was indeed not enough to gain his trust.
Then he thought of the mother tree's condition, and his expression became more serious and haggard, obviously he hadn't slept well in the past few days.
"What exactly happened to Lan Hulin?" Tang Yu'an asked curiously.
Lan Yunqing looked at the two young men and pondered in his mind.
He did not answer Tang Yu'an's question immediately, but asked: "Will that lord help us after understanding the situation?"
This was a secret that concerned the life and death of tens of thousands of people in Lanhu Town. Even the Lanhu people rarely knew about it. It was really a bit difficult for him to reveal the details directly to two young men he met for the first time.
However, without a healing potion, the Bluebeard Mother Tree's condition would only worsen...
Seeing Lan Yunqing's worried expression, Zhou Qi thought for a moment and said, "I can't promise you anything about this. I can only tell you that the mysterious businessman values every employee very much."
Lan Yunqing couldn't help but think of the news about the new function section in the forum.
It had been a while since he received Lan Maolin's report. The reason why he had only come to find the two teenagers now was because he had wasted time studying the rules of the exchange area and the trading area.
Since there are no posts in the communication area yet, there is no obvious difference from the message board, but the trading area is shocking.
In such a short time, more than a dozen display cases have appeared, selling salt, a stone called fire stone, water and a variety of other things.
Lan Yunqing tried to buy water, and after successfully deducting points, he really got a bucket of water.
The water is slightly turbid and not as clear as lake water, but it is completely fine for watering crops.
However, Lan Yunqing did not continue to buy. Instead, he asked about healing potions on the message board, hoping to buy them from other employees.
Unfortunately, no one knew what the healing potion was, and the display window in the trading area did not appear. Lan Yunqing waited for a long time before closing the interface in disappointment.
Judging from the quietness of the communication area and the reactions of the people on the message board, the forum function must have been launched recently.
I don't know if it's because the mysterious businessman just appeared recently, or if he just started recruiting employees...
If it is the former, then the mysterious businessman’s power may not be as great as they imagined, but what if it is the latter?
Lan Yunqing was very conflicted.
At this time, Tang Yu'an said sympathetically: "Brother Yunqing, you don't have to answer us immediately. You can think about it and tell us the answer when you have thought it through."
Lan Yunqing was startled when he heard the boy's familiar address. Obviously, no one had ever called him that before.
Then he heard Tang Yu'an say, "In addition to this mission, coming to Lanhu Town to do business is also the purpose of our trip. I hope you can give me more advice in the future."
Lan Yunqing couldn't help but laugh.
They were both employees of the mysterious businessman, so they were competitors, right? But...
As the lord of Lanhu Town, he still welcomed the two young men to settle in and bring more goods and food to Lanhu Town.
If the mother blue beard tree really can no longer support them, they will have a new way out.
Lan Yunqing thought for a moment and said, "I can only tell you that Lan Hulin is sick, but I can't find the cause."
"Can't you communicate with Lan Hulin?" Zhou Qi asked curiously.
Lan Yunqing smiled bitterly, "After falling ill, Lan Hulin has rarely communicated with me, and I can only sense its emotions."
As for what the mother tree specifically wants to express, he always needs to speculate a lot before he can understand it, and sometimes his understanding is still wrong.
Hearing this, Tang Yu'an nodded in understanding.
Just like his communication with Emerald, Emerald cannot speak and has relatively weak intelligence. Most of the time, it can only express its emotions but not complete language.
If there wasn't a pet grid to check its status, Tang Yu'an might not have known about its special state of splitting before.
In this situation, no matter how anxious and worried Lan Yunqing was, it was useless. You can imagine how much pressure he was under.
Looking at the reactions of the two teenagers, Lan Yunqing sighed, feeling somewhat disappointed.
Fortunately, the potion I just got from the mysterious merchant a few days ago is more effective than the previous one, and I still have a full bottle.
The condition of the mother tree has temporarily stabilized and has not deteriorated any further. It should be able to hold on for a while.
"Let me take you back," he said.
When Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi returned to Store No. 5, Mo Ke had just returned. They assigned him a room on the first floor and then went upstairs.
Before 12 o'clock, they hurried back to Ping'an Grocery Store and fished out four bottles from the sea of dreams.
Because the store was upgraded, there was another message in a bottle belonging to Tang Yu'an hanging on the window of Menghai. He took the bottle down, continued with the previous operation, and finally threw it into Menghai.
After watching the message in the bottle disappear into the sea of dreams, Tang Yu'an retracted his gaze and looked at the four bottles he had salvaged.
The first bottle is small sea blue.
Because it had been said before that it would not appear every day, the little girl's prayer this time was quite normal.
Tang Yu'an responded to her, and this time her transaction request really surprised him.
"Dad said we need some medicine. It would be great if we could exchange the remaining salt for some points. If not, I'll give it all to you."
I have to say that whales are really smart.
The food that the mysterious merchant had given to Xiao Hailan was enough for them to eat for a long time. Any more would easily go bad. Apart from food, he didn't know what else he could exchange it for, so he thought of exchanging it for points.
This way he can exchange more brown rice for the villagers and help more families have enough food.
Tang Yu'an agreed to Xiao Hailan's transaction request.
He changed the hemostatic tape, hemostatic powder, cotton, cotton swabs, and then used the usual antibiotics such as erythromycin ointment.
I was also given three cold medicine pills, all with printed labels indicating how to use them.
Now Haijing has also learned to recognize words. Even if he doesn’t understand something, you can post it or ask on the message board. You don’t have to worry about him not understanding it.
Then he completed the transaction with Xiao Hailan.
You completed a profitable trade with a Dream Wisher, earning +51,688 points, +6 experience points, and +1 dream fragment.
[You obtained 2130 kilograms of sea salt...]
Tang Yu'an put the newly obtained salt together with the previous one, and then sent 5,000 points to Haijing.
5,000 points can be exchanged for 1,000 kilograms of brown rice, enough for them to eat for a long time.
Seeing that his points balance had recovered, Tang Yu'an smiled happily and then opened the second message in a bottle.
This bottle is Ganlin's.
He was very happy to get the response from the mysterious businessman, and he consciously reported what they had done during this period.
First of all, their number of believers increased, and this time there were also powerful psychics among the believers.
Lao Mo took it very seriously and was preparing to perform a real "miracle" to shock these people.
"Is the deep well ready?" Tang Yu'an asked.
"It's ready!" Gan Lin replied. "This time the well is a little deeper, about 10 cubic meters..."
"Yes." Tang Yu'an nodded, "I will trade with you in my dream again tomorrow, so be prepared."
"Okay, okay."
Seeing that the mysterious merchant didn't mind that they dug two cubic meters more than last time, Gan Lin was filled with joy. "We will be prepared. All the Fire Stones today are given to you."
The tricycle given by the mysterious merchant last time is very useful, and I haven’t finished eating all the wheat and brown rice.
Because of the cloth that can maintain low temperatures, the grain will not go bad even if it is stored for a few more days. Lao Mo also spread a piece of low-temperature cloth at the mouth of the well to reduce the evaporation of well water.
Now that he can eat his fill every day and doesn't have to worry about water, Gan Lin feels he has never been so happy.
To be honest, Gan Lin believed from the bottom of his heart what Lao Mo said about the mysterious businessman, and now he admired and appreciated the mysterious businessman even more.
At this moment, he heard another somewhat different mechanical sound.
"You should spread the word about the mysterious businessman's good deeds to the believers, especially the details of how he saved people. Be more detailed."
Although he was curious about who the owner of the voice was, Gan Lin did not dare to neglect him when he thought that he could appear next to the mysterious businessman.
"Okay, I'll remember that."
Although Gan Lin said that he would give him all the Fire Stones, Tang Yu'an did not want them in vain and gave him five pieces of low-temperature cloth and five pieces of normal-temperature cloth.
You completed a profitable trade with a Dream Wisher, earning +4680 points, +6 experience points, and +1 dream fragment.
[You obtained 196 kilograms of Fire Stone...]
After Gan Lin's dream light ball disappeared, Tang Yu'an opened the third bottle. Unfortunately, this new dream wisher was frightened and woke up without saying a word.
The fourth message in a bottle was from Wen Qian.
Hearing that it was this wish-maker from Ice Rock Castle, Tang Yu'an immediately became excited.
"Mysterious businessman...mysterious businessman..."
She muttered, but did not give any specific request.
Tang Yu'an had no choice but to say, "I'm here."
Wen Qian was obviously surprised. She said, "You appear again!"
"Hello, ma'am, why are you calling me?" Tang Yu'an asked directly.
"I...I want more Fire Stones." Wen Qian seemed a little embarrassed and spoke with a lack of confidence.
"Did the Fire Stone from last time work?"
"Yes," Wen Qian said gratefully. "You really saved my life. With the Fire Stone, the room is warm again. And it lasts a long time, unlike charcoal, which burns for a while and then disappears."
"What do you want more Fire Stone for?" Tang Yu'an asked, "Fire Stone has a high temperature, is difficult to store, and is prone to fire."
Especially when they are piled together, the temperature is extremely high.
Wen Qian hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully, "I want to give some to the neighbors around here. They've also been devastated by the severe cold and can't stand it any longer."
Tang Yu'an was a little surprised. "How are you going to explain the origin of the Fire Stone?"
Wen Qian also considered it for a long time before finally making this decision. In fact, the mother and her two children from the neighbor's house had already been taken in by her.
Although it was a bit crowded, her house was warm, so everyone could survive.
As for where these fire stones came from... she told the truth. She made a deal with a fairy in her dream. The fairy took away the ice and snow in her yard and left her with the fire stones.
The neighbor mother and son naturally didn't believe in any gods, so they imagined that she had awakened some mysterious supernatural power.
In short, just attribute all the inexplicable things to supernatural powers.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi exchanged a glance, both speechless. How could they be treated as gods again? Fortunately, no one in Ice Rock Castle believed them.
Mystical powers or something like that would be a good excuse.
It's not hard to tell from Wen Qian's words that she is a good person and has good relations with her neighbors.
So, Tang Yu'an agreed to the deal with her and finally exchanged 20 fire stones for the newly fallen snow in the yard.
You completed a profitable trade with a Dream Wisher, earning +7812 points, +6 experience points, and +1 dream fragment.
[You obtained 85 cubic meters of ice and snow...]
From now on, today's transaction with the Dream Wisher is over.
Seeing that the points balance had increased by more than 60,000, Tang Yu'an felt very happy. If he did it a few more times, all the points he spent today would be back!
He threw Wen Qian's bottle back into the Dream Sea, and prepared to take the teleportation array with Zhou Qi back to Lanhu Town to sleep - after all, Mo Ke was downstairs, so it would be safer for them to go back and sleep to avoid being exposed.
Just watching the light of the teleportation array light up, Tang Yu'an suddenly had an idea in his mind.
After returning to the attic of Shop No. 5, he said to Zhou Qi, "Brother Xiaoqi, do you think we can take Kang Kang over and have him communicate with Lan Hulin?"
