Chapter 6: Searching for Food
Ying Yuanxing didn't expect that the first step of his farm development plan would be blocked, and it was stuck on seeds.
Although the village chief suggested that he go to Hongxing Supermarket to buy seeds, Ying Yuanxing recalled the situation of Hongxing Supermarket and looked at the money he had on him, and he knew that this method would not work.
The products of Hongxing Supermarket are very popular, and seeds are the most sought-after one among them. The high price is the basic rule. If you want to buy, you have to make an appointment. The purchase is limited, and they even have rationing.
For example, to buy a seed, he would need to pay extra for ordinary products in the supermarket. The 500 yuan he had was not enough to even pay for the purchase of the goods, let alone the seeds.
As for finding a store in another place to buy seeds, Ying Yuanxing searched on the Internet and found that this approach was not feasible either.
Firstly, the seeds in other stores are not cheap and hard to buy. Secondly, the nearest store is a bit far from Taoxi Village, so the shipping cost is particularly high.
Because the overall environment is unsafe, the express delivery industry has not developed well. Cheap items are lost money when delivered, and when delivering expensive items, the deliveryman may be the biggest danger, so a safe delivery channel naturally has high freight costs.
Does he have to go the breeding route first, make money from breeding, and then buy seeds?
When Ying Yuanxing played the game, he tried various ways to make money, and naturally tried the breeding route, but those were all natural choices out of interest, not forced.
Now that I've been transported into a farming game, do I still have to worry about so many things?
Wait a minute...
Ying Yuanxing suddenly thought of something. It is not necessary to buy seeds. There is another way to get seeds.
There is a certain probability of harvesting mixed seeds when harvesting weeds. Although it is generally not used as the main channel to obtain seeds in the game, it is still a channel after all. It's just that the progress is slow in the early stages and it will be more difficult.
But what Ying Yuanxing is least afraid of is suffering. He is only afraid of suffering that is useless. For the sake of the future, what's wrong with suffering now!
After returning from the back mountain, Yuan Xiu saw Ying Yuanxing standing at the village chief's door from a distance. He stopped to look at him curiously and saw that Ying Yuanxing's expression changed, sometimes angry, sometimes sad, and suddenly he became full of fighting spirit. It was very interesting.
Yuan Xiu was so angry yesterday that he went to the back mountain to fight with someone late at night. Now his anger has subsided temporarily, and his curiosity about Yuan Xing has prevailed again.
However, Yuan Xiu didn’t want to get close to Ying Yuanxing for the time being. If he was picked up again or did some weird movements, he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to continue acting. So he decided to just watch from a distance.
…
Yuan Xiu was looking at Ying Yuanxing, and others were also looking at Ying Yuanxing.
After waiting anxiously for a whole night, when the live broadcast room lit up again, many viewers were nervous, fearing to see a bloody scene, but what appeared before them was Ying Yuanxing's peaceful sleeping face.
And the inside of the house was not as scary as they imagined. Although there were almost no daily necessities, the house looked quite clean and tidy, especially when the sunlight came in. The house seemed peaceful and quiet, which made many viewers vaguely think of the bright morning four years ago when no strange things appeared.
Just thinking about the cruel situation in reality, this bright memory is instantly covered with a layer of haze.
Only a few people were talking in the barrage area, and most of the audience just looked at Ying Yuanxing silently, with no desire to speak. The staff of the Dawn Bureau noticed the situation here, and although they tried hard to liven up the atmosphere in the barrage area, the scene was too destructive, and still few audiences became active.
The staff had no other options but to mark the scene and continue to observe the situation. If the audience's mood continued to decline, they would have to take some measures.
The staff suddenly remembered a topic that had been hotly debated online. Since depression can attract weird things, why can't we develop a drug to control human emotions so that humans don't have negative emotions like depression and can always maintain positive emotions.
Once this topic was raised, some countries actually made attempts, and Xiaguo was no exception. However, the project was soon stopped for unknown reasons. Some rumors said that the project had serious side effects.
However, although Xia Guo has stopped this project, it is said that some countries abroad are still researching this. It would be great if they could really develop a drug that can resist negative emotions without side effects.
Thinking of the recent records of people attracting strange things and causing casualties due to negative emotions, the staff member sighed and realized that his emotions had also fallen to a low ebb. He quickly gave himself a set of psychological hints according to the methods of the induction tutorial to suppress his negative emotions.
Although the Dawn Bureau has sufficient military force, it would be troublesome if it really attracted weirdness.
What's more, negative emotions can accumulate in a building. There are so many people in the Dawn Bureau, and they read the information sent from all over the country all year round. There are few good news when it comes to weird news. He should release less negative emotions if possible.
After get off work, I went to the treatment room again. The staff rubbed their eyebrows and continued to work.
The staff first went to look at other live broadcast rooms. Compared with Ying Yuanxing's, the images in these rooms were darker and bloodier, but the staff watched them with particular calmness, because these were the work contents he was familiar with.
While calmly watching the other live broadcast rooms, the staff did not forget to stare at the live broadcast room where Ying Yuanxing was. Fortunately, Ying Yuanxing was on his way in the live broadcast room. It was not until he arrived at the village chief's house that the staff shifted their attention.
Seeing that Ying Yuanxing wanted to farm, he learned that the grocery store in the village had been closed down by the supermarket, and that supermarket was Ying Yuanxing's former employer, Hongxing Company. Looking at Ying Yuanxing's expression, the staff couldn't help but smile.
The barrage also started to laugh.
[I was upset when I saw the anchor resign yesterday. Now it’s the anchor’s turn to be upset]
[I was feeling quite bad at first, but suddenly I feel much better]
[Although, let me smile first]
[Alas, if only the host could stay a little longer, it would be great if he had a colleague to help him and it would be easier to buy the seeds.]
[Although I don't quite agree with the anchor's resignation, to be honest, even if other players are allowed to enter, if the anchor comes to Taoxi Village again, other players will really be willing to sell the monster seeds they have worked so hard to get to the anchor instead of using them themselves]
[What I said before is correct. You won’t get much profit from selling it to the anchor, but if you give it to others, the profit will be huge.]
[But if I can’t buy seeds, the anchor can’t farm anymore, right? I have to go out and make some money.]
[Resigned, then looked for another job, emmmmm, I don’t know how to comment on this]
[Seeing you guys having such a good time discussing, I’m a little afraid to speak up. Thinking about the host’s previous actions, I feel like he can think of some other way to break the impasse.]
After scanning the comments, the staff member was silent for a second and gave a thumbs up to the following comment in his heart. Although there was no basis for it, he felt the same way.
…
Having made up his mind, Ying Yuanxing prepared to go back to the farm to harvest the weeds. While it was still early, he could start farming immediately after harvesting the weeds.
Ying Yuanxing turned around and walked away, but after taking only two steps, he stopped and looked back towards the village chief's house.
He is hungry.
I excitedly returned to Taoxi Village yesterday. I didn't eat on the way, and fainted again when I arrived at the farm. When I got up in the morning, I came to find the village chief. It turned out that he hadn't eaten for almost a day.
Before leaving just now, the village chief invited him to stay for dinner, but he didn't feel hungry at the time and didn't have the appetite to eat. Most importantly, he was not used to eating at other people's homes, so he declined.
Can he say he regrets it?
Ying Yuanxing thought about it and gave up the idea. He really couldn't have the nerve to knock on the door.
Forget it, I'd better go look for any food store in the village. However, it would take a lot of time to look for it by myself. Just when Ying Yuanxing was about to find someone to ask about the situation, he saw Yuan Xiu standing in the distance.
"Let it go!" Ying Yuanxing shouted loudly with his eyes shining.
Yuan Xiu really wanted to turn around and leave, but thinking about his disguise, he walked over with a smile on his face and stopped a little away from Ying Yuanxing.
"Do you know where there's a store selling food in the village?"
"There is a small restaurant in the village." Yuan Xiu said, and under Ying Yuanxing's expectant gaze, he continued, "But it's closed."
Ying Yuanxing didn't feel happy for even a second before his heart sank.
But this closure...
"Is it Hongxing Supermarket?" Ying Yuanxing asked with clenched fists.
"No." Noticing that Ying Yuanxing's tone was not right, Yuan Xiu realized that there seemed to be something he didn't understand. He glanced at the village chief's house and shook his head. "It's because the price of ingredients has increased, and the boss couldn't make it anymore, so he closed the shop."
turn out to be……
Hongxing Company, I********
Ying Yuanxing's heart was filled with joy. If Hongxing Company hadn't driven the grocery store out of business, would the price of food have increased? In the final analysis, it was all Hongxing Company's fault.
"What's wrong?" Yuan Xiu pretended not to be able to see Ying Yuanxing's emotions and asked.
"Nothing." Ying Yuanxing waved his hands weakly. Without a restaurant, what would he do for food in the next few days? Would he have to starve before the crops came out? Otherwise, he could go to the village chief's house to borrow some rice or flour to fill his stomach. It seemed that his grandfather had a good relationship with the village chief.
Ying Yuanxing sighed. When the game is turned into reality, there will be a lot of trouble. If it is in the game, eating only increases the stamina bar and blood volume. If you want to increase the hunger value, you have to add other modules.
But, without food and restaurants, can we really not have anything to eat?
Seeing Ying Yuanxing lost in thought, Yuan Xiu frowned slightly. Ying Yuanxing was clearly standing in front of him, but he felt as if the other person was in another world.
But this is what makes it interesting. I really want to know what Ying Yuanxing is thinking!
Yuan Xiu didn't know that he soon regretted his curiosity.
Ying Yuanxing seemed to have thought of a good idea and was a little excited. Then he said that he was leaving and said goodbye to him.
Yuan Xiu saw that Ying Yuanxing wanted to be alone, so he left obediently, but hid where Ying Yuanxing couldn't see him. Then he saw Ying Yuanxing staring at the trash can at the door of the village chief and took action.
Ying Yuanxing just remembered a setting in the game. By rummaging through the trash can, you can get various items, including food.
When he first started playing the game, he would rummage through trash cans for resources every day. Although rummaging through trash cans is a bit shabby in reality, resources don't matter whether they are dirty or not. As for food, he would take it out to have a look first. Even if he didn't eat it himself, he could sell it to others.
As for not letting Yuan Xiu follow, it was because I was worried about Yuan Xiu's favorability decreasing. Although in the favorability column, Yuan Xiu's favorability was not high either, so maybe a little less would be better.
Yuan Xiu was stunned, and so were the audience. When they watched other contestants’ live broadcasts before, they were all fighting for their lives, with their lives hanging by a thread. But Ying Yuanxing, this...
[I remember this was a weird game, not some scavenging game! ! ! ]
[This, isn't it, can you really find food? 】
[That's definitely not possible. Think about it, Weirdos eat everything. How can humans eat something that even Weirdos don't eat? ]
[I feel the anchor is a bit pitiful. The previous contestants struggled to survive, but at least they were not unable to afford food. But the anchor is like this. Sigh]
The audience was talking about it, and it was obvious that they had no expectations of seeing Yuanxing rummaging through the trash can to find food.
