Chapter 243
Tang Yu'an looked at the map and saw that the RV was now heading towards Linhai Town.
Because Linhai Town is more than one kilometer away from Jufeng Mountain, the area one kilometer away is still shrouded in fog.
In foggy areas, autonomous driving cannot locate the target.
However, because Hai Jing and Xiao Hai Lan were in Linhai Town, they had already cleared the fog of Guanyu Village, so they didn't have to worry about this restriction. It's just...
"The road ahead is bumpy, please fasten your seat belts."
When their car arrived at the foot of Jufeng Mountain and was about to head towards Linhai Town, the road became difficult to travel on because it was unpaved.
Tang Yu'an resisted the urge to pave the way.
After all, if the RV can pass through, it proves that there is no problem for pedestrians to pass through.
This section of road can be repaired after the construction team builds the fence here, or... we can organize people in Jufeng Town to carry out the repairs, after all, this place is at the foot of Jufeng Mountain.
Work-for-relief allows more people to exchange their labor for peace coins, and they can then use the excess peace coins to exchange for food and survival supplies from grocery stores, thus achieving a virtuous cycle!
Tang Yu'an took note of this and prepared to go back and discuss a plan with Zhou Qi.
The RV struggled forward amidst the bumps and finally had to stop in front of huge rocks after an hour.
"The road ahead is impassable, searching for other roads..."
"Search complete! Please choose your forward plan!"
Tang Yu'an looked at the screen, which listed several routes and marked their approximate lengths.
He thought about it and found that there were many red dots on these routes, except in the area ahead of him.
This should be the result of salt merchants like Jin Fu clearing out dangerous creatures along the way when they traveled back and forth on this road. Moreover, this road is also the shortest route as seen on the map.
Tang Yu'an did not choose to take a detour, but directly opened the item list panel and began to clear the roadblocks and pave the concrete road surface.
Soon, the boulders in front were cleared to one side, and the RV moved forward again along the paved concrete road.
Tang Yu'an stretched, stood up and returned to Ping'an Grocery Store.
Zhou Qi has successfully produced elastic metal cloth and is trying to cut and sew it. However, due to the characteristics of the material, it is difficult to make it into clothing.
"Brother Xiaoqi, how about we go to Jufeng Town to recruit people to build the road?" Tang Yu'an asked.
"Of course we can, but let's wait for the construction team from the deserted city to arrive."
That means the protective barrier of the deserted city home has also extended here, ensuring the safety of the construction team.
After all, the flood has just passed, and the mutant creatures forced to the mountains by the flood have not completely left, so it is still very dangerous in the area of Jufeng Mountain.
If attacked by mutant creatures during the construction process, it is likely to cause unnecessary casualties.
"Yeah, you have a point."
Tang Yu'an nodded and took note of the matter for the time being, planning to look into it again in a few days.
Afterwards, he helped Zhou Qi make the clothes that Tang Sheng requested. Although the style was a bit strange, the texture of the metallic cloth was much better than ordinary stretch cloth.
I hope Dad can use it!
Then Tang Yu'an put some fresh ingredients in the spirit storage bag, such as star chain fruit, lotus leaves, leeks and so on.
Yes, the plants from the original world that they had previously given to Granny Guo to plant have now borne fruit.
Grandma Guo also planted ginger, onions, garlic and leeks in the fields, greatly enriching the variety of crops in the deserted city home.
"We should send them more green vegetables in the future," said Tang Yu'an.
In addition to eating enough, you should also pay attention to balanced nutrition and supplement more vitamins so that you are less likely to get sick or catch a cold, and your body can always be healthy.
As for the physical fitness egg, the last message in a bottle has been sent out, and it will probably take another week to arrive.
"I didn't receive the message in the bottle from Tours this time, and I don't know how they are doing now?" Tang Yu'an threw the bottle into the dream sea and couldn't help muttering.
"Maybe it took too long to make the equipment. Let's check it out the day after tomorrow."
It took about seven or eight days for the message in the bottle to reach Tours, and it took him about another week to make the equipment.
This time they gave more materials, and it probably took Tulsi more time, so they were staggered.
Tang Yu'an nodded, and then went to the other dimension with Zhou Qi.
They have been busy in this plane during this period and have not been to the other plane for a long time. Tang Yu'an's learning progress has also fallen behind a lot.
Now with the autonomous driving system, all you have to do is take the time to go back and check if the road is blocked every once in a while.
This can also be used as a way to rest and relax!
Tang Yu'an set it up to go back once every 8 hours, so only 16 minutes would have passed on this plane, so the time interval would not be too long.
“Study, study!”
He wanted to finish his high school courses as soon as possible so that he could go on an adventure in the Giant Forest with his brother Xiaoqi.
Zhou Qi went to the giant tree forest to practice wood-related abilities.
Although he used his fire ability to forcibly suppress and devour the energy of the wood spirit insect, he did not integrate it into his power system.
It will take time to integrate with the original fire and earth elements.
However, these three systems complement each other. Zhou Qi can feel that with the addition of the wood system, his strength has become more complete.
Because earth can produce wood, and wood can help fire, the power of fire becomes even stronger.
While they were studying and practicing, a few pets played freely outside the giant forest.
After so much development, the pets have developed the area from the cabin to the edge of the giant forest into their territory.
Other large animals will choose to avoid them after smelling the scent they leave behind.
Of course, except for those super giant creatures.
But maybe this is the edge of the giant forest, or maybe they are lucky, so after such a long time, they have not encountered any giant creatures.
-
The time in this dimension slowly came to evening.
Thanks to the efforts of Big Beard and the three siblings, they finally completed nearly 500 profitable transactions before dark and earned nearly 500 points!
Outside the yard of the Chifeng Grocery Store, there were many people coming to trade.
Because they could trade at least three times, although they completed nearly 500 transactions, the actual number of customers was only two or three hundred.
Chifeng Town has a permanent population of about 1,500, so less than one-fifth of the people exchanged for food.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Big Beard decided to disperse. After all, the town was not completely free of danger. Occasionally, mutant creatures would break in to hunt.
"Today's sold out, please come early tomorrow!"
The townspeople, who had been waiting in line for a while, were naturally unhappy.
"There's clearly still money in the bag, why aren't you selling it?" The person at the front of the line got so angry that he reached out to grab the sack from the bearded man.
As a result, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he disappeared out of thin air the next moment.
The townspeople who had heard of it but saw it for the first time were all stunned, but they were used to seeing the big beard.
After all, he had seen it many times throughout the day.
There are always people who don't believe in evil and want to challenge the authority of the God of Business. In the end, they either can't even get in the door or are ruthlessly sent out.
The bearded man was so happy to earn these points! These "miracles" again and again only strengthened his faith in the God of Commerce.
From today on, he is the most devout believer of the God of Business!
As soon as he thought of this, the names of Little Noisy and Dawn flashed through his mind. Thinking of their discussion and profound interpretation of the doctrine, his scalp tingled.
It would be better for him to be the third most pious!
Just as the bearded man was greeting the three siblings and preparing to go back to the house to celebrate today's success, suddenly a series of exclamations were heard.
In front of him, the people who had filled the entire yard and refused to leave disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Even Mao Da, Mao San and Mao Hua are gone!
But soon, the bearded man noticed the dense crowd outside the yard.
What was going on? Were all these people malicious towards him at the same time?
But soon, he saw the system information pop up.
[It is currently closed. No one except employees who receive accommodation benefits can enter "Ping An Grocery Store No. 8"]
So that’s how it is!
The bearded man was stunned. Doesn’t that mean Mao Da and the others can’t come in either?
Fortunately, he saw the new system prompt pop up.
[Congratulations! Triggering the elite mission "Unlock the invitation to overnight guests" function]
[Description: Thanks to your hard work, the Chifeng Grocery Store is booming. The mysterious merchant has noticed your efforts and is considering unlocking the overnight stay feature for you and granting your three friends the right to stay there.]
[Task content: deduct 200 store popularity points, 2000 personal points (deducted from monthly salary commission), and deduct "1" in the store channel to apply]
[Reward: You can invite customers to stay overnight at Store No. 8. The current task is limited to three customers: Mao Da, Mao San, and Mao Hua]
Seeing the task prompt, the bearded man's eyes lit up and he quickly sent a reply in the store channel.
He wasn't quite sure what store popularity meant, but 2,000 points... since it could be deducted from the commission, there wouldn't be any problem!
At worst, he could make some profitable trades in the coming days to make up for it!
Now Mao Da and the others have been excluded. This is a very dangerous thing. He has to let them in quickly before those bad guys find out about the situation.
Otherwise, it would be terrible if those people caught them and threatened him to get out.
【Shop Channel】
【Razor】: deduct 1
Seeing the message sent by Razor, Tang Yu'an smiled, and then unlocked the function of inviting customers to stay overnight for Store No. 8.
Because Razor is not a branch manager, there is no application button on his interface, so he can only take this approach.
Unlike Lan Yunqing, they had just recruited Big Beard and it was impossible to promote him to branch manager immediately, but his situation was also quite urgent, so Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi made special arrangements.
Moreover, the unlocked points only deducted his basic 2,000 points.
After all, Big Beard is not the lord of Chifeng Town, nor does he have the prestige like Lan Yunqing and Hongli. It is not easy for him to earn points quickly.
However, it is not possible to not deduct points at all. People will not cherish things that are too easy to get, so let them deduct points from their salary commission and let them pay off their debts slowly.
Because the store was not upgraded first, the level of Store No. 8 was still lv0. After unlocking the overnight stay function, Tang Yu'an found that there were only 10 overnight stay spots available!
Fortunately, it is enough for now.
Tang Yu'an added Mao Da, Mao San and Mao Hua to the overnight stay list of Inn No. 8. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the light spots with their names on the map successfully enter the range of the protective barrier.
Now that the protective barrier is open and the grocery store has entered invisible mode, the people in Red Bee Town should have seen it, right?
But it doesn’t matter if they see it, they will probably just attribute it all to a “miracle”, right?
In fact, this is true.
The customers who came to do business were stunned when they found themselves being sent outside and saw the Red Bee Grocery Store disappear before their eyes.
The God of Business once again demonstrated His power.
So they had angered the gods, and the gods had made the grocery store disappear? This was no longer just an ordinary empty house, but their hope for surviving the next cold storm!
Some people knelt on the ground, crying and begging for God's forgiveness.
After being stunned for a moment, Mao Da took the opportunity to pull Mao San and Mao Hua closer to the yard, and then he felt a layer of transparent barrier blocking the way.
But after a while, he felt the barrier disappeared and they quickly jumped in.
Seeing the bearded man again, the three were extremely excited. After the bearded man explained what happened, they looked at the crowd kneeling outside and immediately decided to continue the show!
After all, I still owe the Shangshen Sect 2,000 points, so I have to do more business to earn them back.
So the people kneeling outside saw...
The bearded man's head floated in the air, giving them a devilish smile.
“Ghost!”
The crowd kneeling outside suddenly ran away...
-
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi were unaware of what happened in Chifeng Town.
After arranging the route for Store No. 8 and the RV, they returned to Lanhu Town, took Kang Kang back to the deserted city home and handed him over to Grandma Guo, and then continued to go to the other dimension.
About half a month later, it was the next morning in this dimension when Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi returned to the RV again.
While they were sleeping in this plane, the RV stopped again because of a roadblock.
However, judging from the map, they had already traveled about one-third of the way and were quite close to Linhai Town.
The roadblock we encountered this time was a cliff.
There must have been an earthquake, and the earth cracked in the middle with a crack more than ten meters wide, forming a bottomless rift valley.
From a distance, you can see an iron chain bridge connecting the rift valley, which is the same as the one at the foot of the giant peak, and even looks more simple.
The iron chain was covered in rust, and it looked like no one had used it for a long time.
Come to think of it, this road leads to Jufeng Town, which had just experienced a flood for more than two months, and salt merchants like Jin Fu were trapped in the mountains.
It must have been a long time since anyone walked this road.
The RV definitely can't fly over there, if we have to take a detour...
Tang Yu'an looked at the map and wondered how much further the journey would be - because the rift valley extended beyond one kilometer and the edge could not be seen on the map.
So they had to stop and build bridges and roads.
As they had anticipated this, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi got out of the car directly and took out six brand new construction robots from their portable warehouse.
This was purchased after refreshing using the seven-day sale card. There are many places that need construction now, and construction robots are in great need.
As for the five old robots, they are still in the deserted city home and are building new houses.
However, in addition to the construction robot, Tang Yu'an also moved the Nanyuan container out of the portable warehouse.
This is currently the only super-capable container that can be upgraded to level 3. Because the upgrade materials require 2 space stones, and the upgrade time is very long, it is relatively difficult.
However, after the upgrade is successful, the effect is also very significant.
First of all, in terms of internal space, it has been increased from 100 times that of level 2 to 1000 times.
The volume of the super-capacity container itself is 1 cubic meter, so after upgrading to level 3, it has become a super large space of 1,000 cubic meters.
When you open the cabinet door, you can see a large warehouse with a length, width and height of 200 meters x 10 meters x 5 meters, which is very spectacular.
What's even better is that when the cabinet door is closed, the space in the container becomes independent, just like a portable warehouse, and the items put in will always remain in the state they were in when they were put in.
In this way, perishable foods like fruits and vegetables can be placed inside and keep them fresh forever!
If they didn't need it to store large items, Tang Yu'an would have sent it back to his parents.
However, they still have two super-capable cargo containers waiting to be upgraded. Once he collects enough space stones for the upgrade, he must send one back.
Then the other one stayed in the deserted city home, which also needed this one.
Tang Yu'an did not open the cabinet door, but used the telekinesis skill to take out the reinforced concrete structure stored inside.
Yes, they had long anticipated that building bridges and roads would be necessary on the way forward.
So during the half month in the alien dimension, they let the construction robots build the bridge piers, bridge deck and other structures.
When you want to build the bridge, you can adjust and assemble it according to the actual situation, and it will be built much faster than normal!
Six construction robots have started working. They did not assemble immediately, but first surveyed the geological conditions on both sides of the cliff and selected the most suitable place to build a bridge.
Fortunately, they found a location that met the criteria within the coverage of the protective barrier and did not need to move.
After watching the robots start working, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi left temporarily.
They picked up Kang Kang and went to Lanhu Town again, and handed him over to Lan Yunqing who was waiting anxiously outside the store, and then went to Jufeng Town.
Almost a week had passed since they suggested to Hongli that she could set up a brick kiln in Jufeng Town, and they were ready to go and see the results.
As soon as we arrived at the Jufeng Grocery Store and came out of the basement where the teleportation array was located, we saw that the store entrance was crowded with people.
Today it was Shitou's turn to be on duty. He and Xiaocao were so busy that they didn't even notice the two young bosses coming.
Because of the "Evil Guests Repel Aura", they are no longer afraid of bad people, so they open the door to welcome guests. However, under the maintenance of the guards, it is still in good order. However...
There are too many people!
Because in addition to selling salt, the Kyoho Grocery Store now also sells peace coins and warm versions of fire stones.
Yes, Xiaocao and the others are selling Ping An coins.
In addition to being a currency, the Ping An Coin is also a commodity in itself and can naturally be sold. The only difference is that they use the Ping An Coin to exchange for wild vegetables and mushrooms.
The cold disaster was about to hit, and they launched the Ping An Coin exchange at this time, which naturally caused a sensation.
Moreover, the coins sold at Jufeng Grocery Store are all worth 1 yuan, which is worth 1 point, so basically no matter how you trade, you will not lose money.
Now the popularity of Ping An Coin has greatly increased. At least everyone living in Jufeng Town knows about Ping An Coin.
There has been no reselling phenomenon for the time being. After all, as long as you take the crops to the Kyoho grocery store or the guard post, you can exchange them.
The middlemen can probably only go to other places to sell the goods at a high price, but this is not something Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi can control.
Looking at it from another perspective, if this really happens, it is also helping them promote Ping An Coin.
Moreover, the temperature-regulating function of the Ping An Coin may be able to save more lives after it is promoted, but they will need to pay a higher price to buy it.
The streets were still deserted during the day, but apart from the large crowds of people gathered at the Kyoho Grocery Store, there was another place also crowded with dense spots of light.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi flew over there.
This is the west side of the town. It was originally the territory of Li Li, but it has been taken over by Hongli, and now many brick kilns have been built here.
There are at least five or six hundred spots of light gathered here.
Only Hongli could organize so many people to work in the brick kiln in less than a week.
Batches of finished bricks were sent to a factory. Black Bear was standing at the door, supervising the guards counting the bricks.
Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi landed not far from him and greeted him.
"Captain Black Bear, long time no see! We are here to collect bricks." Tang Yu'an said with a smile.
"Then I will go and report to the mountain master."
"No need, we've already told Sister Hongli that we can just do the transaction directly."
"Oh well."
When they entered the warehouse, they saw rows of bricks neatly arranged. Black Bear said, "That's 90,000 bricks in total. What do you think?"
Tang Yuan: 0.0
There's strength in numbers! In less than a week, they produced 90,000 bricks!
Looking at the boy's expression, Black Bear asked nervously, "Isn't that too much?"
Tang Yu'an shook his head.
He had told Hongli before that as long as the bricks were of good quality, they would take as many as they wanted.
However, if the production capacity of Jufeng Mountain is so large, the brick factory in Huangcheng Home can be closed and converted into a cement plant and steel plant.
These two require certain skills, and Jufeng Mountain currently does not have talents in this area, so it can only build brick kilns with relatively low technical content.
"A total of 90,000 bricks. Can you agree to trade them with Ping An coins?" Zhou Qi continued.
This sounds strange, but Black Bear is used to it.
He nodded directly and said, "Okay, I agree!"
then--
[Employee Zhou Qi completes a profitable transaction with a regular customer, earning +1 experience point and +15,000 points]
Looking at the transaction reminder, Tang Yu'an, who had already done transactions involving 100,000 points, was very calm this time.
He even thought that 90,000 bricks were only worth 15,000 points, and the technical content was indeed relatively low. It would be better for him to let his grandfather shut it down as soon as possible.
Their Huangcheng Home is going to make something more high-end and valuable!
