Chapter 334 Looking Forward to Dr. D
Bai Dalang watched the uncle and nephew leave, and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Mr. Bai didn't think anything was wrong. Seeing that the two children not only brought back two buckets of small fish, but also brought back three or four large fish, he couldn't help but praise them and said, "Not bad, not bad. I was right about the Zhou family being a good friend, wasn't I?"
Bai Dalang nodded. Although he always felt something was wrong, these four extra big fish were indeed given to him by Zhou Silang for free.
The Bai family father and son naturally didn't worry about the rest of the matters and directly sent the three buckets of fish to the kitchen.
The cook only took half a day to prepare two buckets of small fish.
Bai Erlang ate a small plate of it after his lunch break. It tasted better because it was still hot.
He was very satisfied and asked the cook to divide half of the prepared small fish into two wooden barrels and took his servants to deliver them to Old Zhou's house.
The cook saw the large pot of fried fish and couldn't help shaking her head. She muttered to herself, "I wonder how much good food I could buy with the oil used to cook this fish..."
The Zhou family didn't care much about the children playing around with fishing nets, but first Zhou Wulang brought back a bucket full of big fish, and in the afternoon Bai Erlang brought over such a big basin of fried small fish.
The Zhou family: ...
Datou received Bai Erlang happily and asked, "Why didn't you ask me to get it? It's so heavy and it's really troublesome for you."
Bai Erlang waved his little hand nonchalantly and said, "No trouble, no trouble." It wasn't him who took it anyway, the things were taken by the servants, and he could take the opportunity to go out and play.
Bai Erlang seldom plays with the children of Lao Zhou's family. Although Qili Village is not that big, everyone has their own circle.
In addition, he didn't get along with Bai Shanbao and Manbao, so it was even more impossible for him to play with Datou and the others. The few times they interacted with each other, they were either fighting or arguing.
But at this moment, Bai Erlang thought that the big-headed man was not bad, and they could play together more often in the future.
He looked around and asked curiously, "Where's your aunt?"
"My aunt is doing her homework. Do you want to play with her?"
"No!" Bai Erlang flatly refused and looked at Datou instead, "Let me go play with you."
"Okay." Datou also felt that Bai Erlang was rare and generous, and he didn't mind taking him to play together.
Manbao, who was across the yard, was concentrating on doing her homework. After finishing her homework, she lay on the bed and started shopping in the mall.
There were already a lot of wheat seeds in the shopping cart, but she didn't pay for them.
Manbao wants to replace some of the wheat in his home so that when villagers come to exchange wheat seeds with him after a while, he can use better seeds.
This was not difficult for her because the rice was still being dried in the sun. The area in Old Zhou's room where grain was stored was cleared out for drying in the sun, so the wheat was temporarily placed in Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang's rooms.
A few arranged stones were placed on the floor of each room, then wooden boards were laid on top, and then a granary made of bamboo was placed on it, and the wheat was poured into it.
There was no way, there were not enough sacks at home, and basically every household had one or two such granaries.
So it was very easy for Manbao to replace the wheat. He just had to find a time when his fifth or sixth brother was not around, sneak into the granary, and ask Koko to replace the wheat with the same weight.
But the problem now is that she can't buy so much wheat.
Last night, when Manbao learned that villagers would come to exchange wheat seeds in two days, he placed an order for the wheat seeds he had selected in the shopping cart before going to bed.
Because she was too sleepy, she didn't read some of the flashing text carefully. When she realized it, her account had been locked.
With Koko's help, she finally figured out what had happened.
Because she bought too many wheat seeds and the technology in the two worlds was so different, her behavior was suspected of subverting the humanities and technology of this planet, so her account was temporarily blocked. Currently, except for the collection and forum functions, the functions of the mall are temporarily closed.
Wait until it is approved.
Manbao was a little angry and accused: "You said that the mall doesn't limit the number of units, as long as you can pay the technology tax, it's fine."
“Yes, but you refused to pay the tech tax last night.”
Manbao: “…Is there?”
"Yes, wheat seeds already have a certain technology tax, and since you bought them in bulk, the tax would be even higher. You refused."
Manbao slumped his shoulders. "I was too sleepy last night. I must have clicked without seeing clearly. What do you think we should do? They'll come to replace the wheat seeds in a couple of days. If we don't replace them, even if the weather is good from this year to next, the yield per mu will only be two dan. Moreover, if the soil fertility can't be restored, next year's autumn harvest will be affected."
Keke said he could do nothing to help, he was just a system and could only repeatedly appeal so that the host could be unbanned as soon as possible.
"Every two hours I would file a complaint with the main system, urging the Alliance investigators to speed up."
"What's the shortest time?"
Koko was silent for a moment before saying, "Seventy-two hours."
Manbao converted the time into hours, and after a pause, he asked, "It's been too long. Can I get the wheat seeds some other way?"
"for example?"
"Trading in the forum?"
"Host, the posts in the forum are made by the host according to his own ideas, and the rewards requested are also based on the host's wishes."
Manbao jumped for joy. "So it's okay now?"
"But host, who would be willing to spend thousands of points to buy such a large batch of wheat seeds, and then pay so much for express delivery to you? Especially since they are all highly educated scientific researchers. What is your target?"
Manbao said, "It's clearly 36,800 points."
"That's because of the increase in technology tax and express delivery fees."
It turns out that the technology tax and express delivery fees are several times more expensive than the item itself?
Manbao poked around in the forum, looking at the colorful words floating across it in silence.
She didn't recognize many of the things written in the post, and only a few of them she had heard of but never seen. However, in her impression, these things were also very valuable.
Whether it was for sale or for sale, she had nothing that could match it.
What's more, rare items such as tree sparrows and poria cocos start at hundreds of thousands of points. Even if she could get them at this time, she would not be willing to exchange them for wheat seeds worth a few thousand points.
Even when trading on a forum, the value should be relative, or at least not too different.
And the things she has are worth a few thousand points, no, including the express fee, then the value is more than ten thousand, but less than twenty thousand.
Manbao's gaze slid across the branches and leaves of the Ligustrum lucidum, and finally fell on the piles of soil in the corner.
Although Dr. D seemed to value Ligustrum lucidum very much, it could be seen that she seemed to care more about Poria cocos.
And it turns out that Poria cocos is more expensive than Ligustrum lucidum.
I don’t know if she still needs the Poria soil. It doesn’t seem good to always try to take advantage of one person, but she can’t find any other “acquaintances” now.
By the way, when will Dr. D be unbanned? Seriously, why did he try to find out about her for no reason? Did he get himself banned?
Manbao poked at the screen, hoping that Dr. D would come online soon.
