Chapter 209
Ping An Grocery Store, attic.
After the temporary conversation ends, the interface does not disappear, but shrinks to the corner of the homepage and becomes a new function button.
As soon as Tang Yu'an clicks in, he will see the option of XZ156793.
If he chose this plane, he could make a temporary video call with Gu Qianli by spending another 2,000 points.
Although the call fee is expensive, it is indeed powerful and convenient.
"It would be great if mom and dad could talk to us like this..." Tang Yu'an couldn't help but sigh.
If this were possible, he would be willing to do it even if it cost him 2,000 points every day.
Zhou Qi touched the top of his head. "This call function should be based on the merchant system. Perhaps we can recruit employees across dimensions in the future?"
If this can be achieved, perhaps such real-time calls can become a reality.
"The speed of time flow in our original world should be similar to that in this plane." Zhou Qi said.
Tang Yu'an nodded. It had been more than three months since they arrived at this plane, so the difference wasn't that big.
Of course, because they often go to other dimensions, he and Zhou Qi have actually been away from their original world for more than a year, almost two years.
"We still have to work hard to upgrade." Tang Yu'an said, "When the level is higher in the future, maybe we can unlock more functions."
He would always remember what the system said: if he became a top-level plane businessman, everything he wanted would be within his reach.
Tang Yu'an looked at Meng Hai again and couldn't help but say, "I wonder what the cultivation world this Brother Gu is in is like?"
He can only gain points and experience points by selling plants and small animals. Plus, there are not many customers around, so it seems that it will be difficult to level up.
"Maybe you'll understand after you get to know more."
"Uh-huh!"
Tang Yu'an nodded, then looked at the magic tent again, thought for a moment and said, "Shall we send Hei Tuan Tuan to his parents first?"
Brother Gu didn't know when he could get the spirit storage bag, and he really couldn't wait to return the magic tent.
The sooner they send their children back, the sooner their parents can have a safe place to rest.
"Then buy another space bag." Zhou Qi said.
They need to purchase at least three more portable space equipment. Even if Gu Qianli can provide them, he probably can't give them three.
"Okay, then buy another one!"
Tang Yu'an looked at the plane store and found that today's price was not too outrageous, only 250,000 points each.
He quickly clicked the purchase button and bought the space bag.
So his points balance returned to over 500,000.
“It’s really not easy to become a millionaire!”
Tang Yu'an sighed, opened the space bag, entered the magic tent, said his final goodbye to Hei Tuantuan, and then stuffed the magic tent into the space bag.
Because the opening of the space bag was relatively small, they struggled for a long time before they finally managed to put the magic tent in without damaging the space bag.
“There’s still a lot of space left.”
Tang Yu'an loaded another pile of supplies into the tent and adjusted it so that the magic tent was above the supplies so that his parents could see it first.
Then he bought another optical computer. Considering the difficulty of charging it in the end of the world, he spent twice as many points this time and bought a solar-powered one.
This solar-powered optical computer can also be used as a power bank for other optical computers.
They recorded the video with a light computer, then placed both light computers in a message in a bottle, left a message, corked the bottle, and threw the bottle into the sea of dreams.
The next time I receive this message in a bottle will probably be 18 days later.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi watched the message in the bottle disappear in the sea of dreams. Then, after using up their number of attempts to salvage the dream bottle today, they went to the cabin in the other dimension.
After resting for nearly a month, they entered the training and learning mode again.
Tang Yu'an has successfully passed the junior high school assessment test and started studying high school courses.
Of course, he also learned the biological knowledge that Zhou Qi had mentioned before.
However, the teaching of this chapter was not detailed, so Tang Yu'an still didn't quite understand it. But for some reason, he didn't really want to discuss this knowledge point with Zhou Qi.
Whether talking about the female body structure or the changes in his own body after entering puberty, he felt a little shy.
Every time he faced Zhou Qi's calm and focused eyes, his eyes would wander and he would become hesitant.
In the end, Tang Yu'an simply gave up exploring this aspect.
As long as he can pass the test, it's fine. Everyone has areas they are not good at, that's normal!
What's more, he had memorized all the knowledge points in the textbook, but he just didn't understand them in depth.
In addition to high school courses, the mental methods taught to them by the gods are also the focus of practice. After this period of enlightenment, Tang Yu'an can already sense the existence of spiritual energy.
He was trying to absorb spiritual energy and convert it into his own energy and store it in his dantian and meridians.
The concentration of psychic energy in the other plane is much richer than that in this plane.
Their cultivation in the different dimension is more effective. Even if they just stay there, their bodies are unconsciously absorbing spiritual energy.
They also discovered that as they drove the RV closer to the center of the deserted city, the closer they got to the center, the richer the spiritual energy became.
This should be related to the channel connecting the two worlds.
"This may also be the reason why there are many awakened superpowers in the deserted city area." Zhou Qi said.
They have been to several places and can clearly feel that there are more people with special abilities in the deserted city area than in other places.
Even a densely populated area like Lanhu Town cannot compare with the area around the deserted city.
"So once the fortress knows the situation in the deserted city, it will definitely not give up on this place." Tang Yu'an couldn't help but worry.
Zhou Qi thought about it and said, "Don't worry about this for now."
Although Chi Hao is about to arrive at Qingmu Fort, it will definitely take time for him to go back and report on his work, and the return journey... will take at least more than two months, right?
"By then, we can build our deserted city home."
Tang Yu'an nodded, "That's true."
Chi Hao had been on the road for so long, even if they sent a large group of people over, it would still take much longer.
The wasteland's poor traffic conditions are a natural protective zone for them.
So, Tang Yu'an no longer spent his energy on this matter.
They studied and practiced in the alternate dimension for half a month, and when they returned to their own dimension, it was February 22, the first year of their home world.
The two continued driving towards the center of the deserted city and stopped at night because...
Tang Yu'an suddenly realized that the upgrade in the direction of big is beautiful was enough!
He chose to upgrade directly.
[Do you want to deduct 20,000 points and upgrade the main store, "Hean's Grocery Store," to (Big is Beautiful!) Level 2?]
It’s 10 times higher than when it was upgraded to lv2!
Tang Yu'an couldn't help but wonder, would the next level require 200,000 points?
He shook his head and chose "yes".
【Points deduction successful! 】
Congratulations! The main store, Heian General Store, has been upgraded to level 2 (Big is Beautiful!)
[The number of people on the overnight stay list has increased by 10,000. The current maximum number of customers each store can accommodate is: 11,120]
[The main store can recruit +5 employees, and the branch store can recruit +3 employees]
[Dream Message in a Bottle +1, the capacity of the Message in a Bottle increases to 2 times the original amount, currently has a total of 6 Messages in a Bottle]
[RV upgrade, new "model" added, currently you can choose to increase it to twice the original size]
Seeing the total number of people that could be accommodated on the overnight accommodation list, Tang Yu'an's eyes lit up slightly.
"The number of people that can be accommodated is actually added up! Now it becomes 11120!" Tang Yu'an said in surprise.
Big means when beauty is upgraded to lv1, it increases by 1000, while fine means when strength is upgraded, it only increases by 10 per level, plus the basic 100, the remaining 1120 is derived in this way.
This number of people can almost accommodate the tens of thousands of people in Lanhu Town.
The increase in the number of people that can be recruited is mainly beneficial to the Huangcheng Home. After all, the home’s current staff has been fully recruited, but with the expansion of the home, this is obviously not enough.
In fact, according to Grandpa Li, they are considering candidates for new employees.
Because among the employees of Huangcheng Home, the only one who actually helped him was Shi Tou, and Lin Jue, who was obsessed with research, was half a helper.
Xiaocao and Lan Lin have been living in the Jufeng Grocery Store selling salt, and Mo Ke basically stays in Lanhu Town during the day, so there are too few people to help with the work.
They have basically decided on the candidate and are waiting to go back and ask Grandpa Li for his opinion.
"There's one more message in a bottle!"
Tang Yu'an happily rushed back to the attic and took the large message in a bottle hanging on the window.
"We can continue to use this message in a bottle to contact Uncle Tang and the others," Zhou Qi said. "That way, we can get news from them every nine days!"
Although the information is not real-time, at least we don’t have to wait as long as 18 days.
Tang Yu'an thought for a moment and asked, "Do you mean to wait a week before putting the message in the bottle into the Dream Sea?"
Zhou Qi nodded.
Tang Yu'an thought about it and felt that this was okay.
After all, they haven't received any feedback from their parents yet, so they don't know what they are missing. The biggest function of this message in a bottle is just to convey each other's thoughts as a comfort.
"Then keep it for now." Tang Yu'an hung the bottle back up.
Then I opened the RV interface and saw that there was indeed a new "car model" function section, which included an option to "double the size of the RV".
Tang Yu'an clicked to select, and then went outside the RV with Zhou Qi to check.
As soon as he opened the car door, he noticed the difference.
The RV has become noticeably taller.
He and Zhou Fei got out of the RV. Since it was already night, they turned on the lights outside the RV.
In the bright lights, a brand new and stylish RV appeared before their eyes. It could be clearly seen that the RV had become wider and longer, and was developing into a medium-to-large RV.
After looking around excitedly, they returned to the cab again.
The upgrade in the size of the RVs did not affect their driving speed. On the contrary, due to the increase in the height of the chassis, they were able to deal with obstacles more easily.
Then they discovered that the coverage of the protective barrier had also increased!
This is probably because the protective barrier is calculated based on how many meters the main body of the store expands outward. As the RV becomes taller and larger, the protective barrier will naturally expand outward as well.
Following the same idea, if Building No. 1 of the Deserted City Home continues to expand, the protective barrier should also be able to expand outward.
so……
"The houses for the home expansion should be built next to Building 1." Zhou Qi said.
"Yeah! Then tell Grandpa Li tomorrow."
So they continued to drive the RV forward and wandered in the center of the deserted city at night. Perhaps only they dared to be so crazy.
Only when they were tired did they go back to the attic to rest.
They did not return to the alternate dimension that night. After all, they had not been home for a long time, and both teenagers missed Grandpa Li and the others.
-
The next day, the deserted city home.
Old Li was a little surprised to see Tang Yu'an and the others early in the morning, but he quickly smiled and told them about the recent development of the Deserted City Home.
Brickyards and cement factories are getting bigger and bigger. With the addition of simple machines, their efficiency has been greatly improved.
These simple machines were made by Lin Yu and Lan Lin based on the knowledge they learned in class, and then realized by the gold-type mutants.
Because they are not consumed much, a lot of them have been piled up in the warehouse. If Tang Yu'an and his team want to build another branch, they don't have to worry about running out of bricks and cement.
"By the way, Lin girl and the others are still researching steelmaking recently."
Old Li dropped another bombshell: "Perhaps soon, our hometown will have a steel mill."
Tang Yu'an and his team had a large surplus of iron ore mined from the other world, so Lin Zhen immediately became very interested after learning the relevant knowledge.
Although steel is not as good as mutant metal, most products in our lives do not require such a good material as mutant metal.
"The main limitation now is the manpower issue," said Old Li.
Because of the flood, the number of residents in the home has not increased - although several people were washed away by the flood during this period, they all lost their vital signs.
The appearance of these victims has also made the residents of their homes cherish everything they have now even more.
So basically, they will carry out the orders of Old Li and Lin Zhen very carefully, and there is no need for a few pets to help Old Li keep order.
"There is no way to solve this problem for now. Let's wait and see later." Zhou Qi said.
In fact, they can also buy robots to manufacture, but the increase in the number of robots in the home also means that there will be fewer jobs for humans.
Given their current level of productivity and degree of socialization, it is better to proceed step by step.
Then they talked about building a house.
"That's good." Old Li's eyes lit up, and he nodded. "I'll write it down."
Now that the stock of bricks and cement has increased, we can start building new houses.
As they talked, they walked to the yard downstairs - to be honest, it’s not really appropriate to call it a yard now.
After all, this "yard" is much larger than before.
In addition to the construction of brickyards, cement plants, warehouses and reservoirs, the largest area is the planting area.
Because there is ample daylight and the temperature is just right, growers are opening up more land to grow food.
Because of the widespread use of normal temperature cloth, there is no need to worry about crops being frozen to death at night, so the plants planted no longer need to be forced to grow on the same day.
They lengthened the growth cycle of the plants, but because they planted more, the harvest did not decrease.
"The potatoes and sweet potatoes grown in this way taste significantly better." Old Li said happily as he looked at the green land in front of him.
Who would have thought that this place was still a ruin just two months ago?
Although this land is riddled with holes, as long as they are given a relatively stable environment, humans with many special abilities can unleash their powerful creativity.
"These mutated star chain vines have also brought great help." said Old Li.
Now, in the planting area opened up in the deserted city home, a row of star chain fruit vines are planted at intervals. With their enrichment, the soil will still be dark even if more crops are planted.
"Our biggest problem right now is that we have too much food and it's hard to store it." Old Li said with a strange look on his face.
He never thought that one day he would be troubled by this.
"To avoid waste, I improved the food provided to the residents. Some of the lower quality potatoes, sweet potatoes, and vine leaves were used to feed the livestock."
Because Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi hatched eggs in another dimension, the breeding farm in the deserted city home has now begun to take shape.
There are twenty or thirty chickens and ducks, fifty or sixty rabbits and a few sheep, and the number of fish in the pond has also increased.
"Fifty, fifty or sixty rabbits?" Tang Yu'an was shocked when he heard this number.
How long has it been? How come there are so many?
Speaking of this, Old Li showed a happy yet troubled expression. He said, "Yes, two more female rabbits are pregnant now."
When these baby rabbits grow up, if they are not isolated, I am afraid that no matter how much space there is in the deserted city home, there will not be enough space to raise them.
So starting from last week, Huangcheng Home has been slaughtering a rabbit every three days.
"Are you guys staying home for dinner today?" Old Li said with a smile, "Grandpa will make you some barbecue."
Although his cooking skills may not be as good as Zhou Qi's, he still wanted to make something for the two teenagers.
"Sure! Grandpa's cooking must be delicious!"
Tang Yu'an was talking happily, but he saw that there was a piece of open space next to the farm.
"here it is……"
"Oh, it's Granny Guo and Kang Kang's experimental field." Old Li explained, "Didn't you give Granny Guo a cabinet?"
Tang Yu'an nodded. It was a bright green container with the effect of "red beans growing in the south".
"Grandma Guo said that the container can also promote seed mutation, so she rented a piece of land from me to plant mutant seeds." said Old Li.
Tang Yu'an then realized that the green container really did have this function.
There are actually quite a few plants planted on this open space, but most of them are still in the budding stage, except...
Tang Yu'an caught a glimpse of something and couldn't help but walk over.
At the end of the path, you can see a tree that is more than one meter and close to two meters tall. The tree is full of fruits. Although they are not ripe yet, they already emit the fragrance of butter bread.
"This is a breadfruit tree," Old Li said. "I heard from Granny Guo that you gave her the seeds."
He said with emotion: "I have heard of this kind of fruit before, but this is the first time I have seen it. I must taste it when it is ripe."
Tang Yu'an nodded. He remembered this, but the problem was -
He looked to the side, pointed to another short tree nearby, and asked Old Li, "Grandpa, this is also a breadfruit tree, right?"
Hearing this, Old Li observed it carefully.
From the trunk to the leaves, and from the overall shape of the tree, it can be seen that this is indeed a breadfruit seedling.
"It should be. Is there any problem?" asked Old Li.
Hearing his words, Tang Yu'an surrounded the breadfruit seedling in disbelief, marveling at it.
Any questions? Of course I do!
He bought this breadfruit tree seed at the Plane Store. The merchant made it clear that after genetic modification, this seed could only grow one breadfruit tree.
Although the breadfruit tree can bear fruit when it grows up, its seeds cannot grow into new breadfruit trees.
If you want to plant a second breadfruit tree, you can only continue to buy it from him, and this kind of breadfruit tree is unique to his dimension.
Not only does the fruit of this plant taste like butter bread, but most importantly, the breadfruit tree is drought-resistant and heat-resistant, making it very suitable for planting in dry land.
Originally, Tang Yu'an was thinking about buying a batch of seeds for Lao Mo and the others, but because of the high price of 1,000 points per seed, he was hesitant to make a move.
Unexpectedly, he saw a second breadfruit tree in his deserted city home!
Tang Yu'an quickly used the light brain to contact Granny Guo and asked her what was going on.
Granny Guo laughed and said, "This is not my credit."
After a while, Granny Guo came over with Kang Kang - she was just at the other end of the experimental field.
"Brother!" Kang Kang rushed towards Tang Yu'an.
Tang Yu'an touched the child's head and asked, "Kang Kang, did you plant this breadfruit tree?"
"I'm so happy to have so many friends!" Kang Kang's little face was red, his forehead was covered with sweat, and his face was full of excitement and joy.
"Doesn't its gene prevent it from growing new fruit trees?" Tang Yu'an asked curiously.
"Branches!" Kang Kang said, "Grow them in the ground!"
Tang Yu'an felt that it was definitely not that simple, otherwise the dimensional merchant would not dare to be so confident.
But this should be Kang Kang's ability.
After all, he could grow a seedling from a blue beard leaf and a breadfruit tree from a branch, so there didn't seem to be anything difficult to understand.
"Can I have this seedling?" Tang Yu'an asked, "I want to plant it in a dry, water-scarce, and hot place. Is that okay?"
"Fuck...it's hot...mm!" Kang Kang nodded, "Miao Miao likes it!"
Perhaps because the breadfruit tree seedling had not yet awakened to wisdom, Kang Kang agreed readily.
Soon, he and Grandma Guo transplanted the seedling into a pot, and then gave it to Tang Yu'an. Then he ran to the field to play with his plant friends.
Tang Yu'an smiled at his back, then turned around and saw Zhou Qi holding a notebook with a strange expression on his face.
"Brother Xiaoqi, what's wrong?" he asked.
Zhou Qi showed him the workbook, "Chi Hao just conveyed the message that Lord Lan Hu gave us."
Tang Yu'an took the exercise book and took a look at it.
Lan Yunqing asked me to tell you: I'd like to invite Master Kang Kang to come to Lanhu Town again. I'll pick him up in person. Is that okay? It's nothing serious, it's just that the mother tree misses him.
Who is this Master Kang Kang? Is he from Jufeng Town?
Tang Yu'an's expression also became strange.
He looked at Kang Kang, who was having a lot of fun playing in the field and probably had forgotten about the blue beard mother tree, and then looked at the information in the exercise book and couldn't help scratching his head.
It seems that after returning from Lanhu Town, Kang Kang has never mentioned the mother tree of Lanhu again?
The author has something to say:
