1071 A tree that produces dark energy?
The atmosphere at the scene relaxed.
A woman wearing a local black robe, with a nose ring and covered in gold jewelry stood out, waved her hand, and asked someone to bring a black ball bigger than a basketball. After peeling it apart, she found grains as long as fingers.
She sent these black particles to the Chinese team.
The team members were all confused. What on earth was this black, charcoal-like thing?
Only Jingshu's eyes lit up: "Is this a new type of dried fruit after the apocalypse?"
Sure enough, the next second the woman taught everyone how to peel the grains, revealing the peanut-like fruit. When they put it in their mouths, a strong and sweet smell of oil instantly spread.
If I must describe it, it's like eating a handful of melon seeds and a handful of pine nuts at once. The aftertaste is very long and lingers on the taste buds for a long time.
"It smells so good!"
"Eating one of these feels like I've spent the entire afternoon carefully peeling melon seeds and stuffing them into my mouth. Isn't that too satisfying?"
"It's delicious. I've never had anything so rich in fat and yet so crisp and fragrant."
The woman was very satisfied with everyone's performance. She handed each member of the Huaxia team some nut granules of other flavors and asked Anang to translate:
"These are the Afghan pine nuts that this lady planted before the apocalypse. After the apocalypse, they mutated and expanded several times in size to become a new product. These have chocolate and cream flavors, and they're a rare and premium food here."
Jingshu ate two more and her eyes lit up. The texture and taste were right. They were a bit similar to the hundreds of kilograms of Brazilian pine nuts she bought before the apocalypse, but this apocalyptic product was obviously larger. One nut was as thick as a finger, and it tasted better and more fragrant.
If it is fried and other flavors are added, the taste will be stronger. After all, there is a difference in the taste of raw melon seeds and roasted melon seeds.
Anang smiled and translated, "I wonder if the Huaxia team is interested in this food? Its value is similar to the exchange rate for one can of food for every five pine nuts."
The Chinese people who were interested just now suddenly lost interest and shook their heads.
"Fuck, is this a robbery? It's so expensive?"
"Five pine nuts for one can? Although these pine nuts are indeed delicious, they are too damn expensive, aren't they?"
"Yeah, I originally wanted to exchange some to take back to my family. After all, it's almost the New Year, but it's too expensive. It would be better to exchange more for oil. We can exchange it for a few hundred kilograms of meat when we return home."
Anang explained, "These pine nuts are a new energy product. Eating them can strengthen your body, prevent illness, and reduce wrinkles."
"It's the end of the world, who cares if I have wrinkles?"
Most people don't want it, but a few do:
"Hey, if you guys don't want to buy any, then I'll buy 10."
"Yes, I want 10 too."
But people don't ask for much. This thing is just for trying something new. It won't fill you up. It's unrealistic to expect to eat it as a meal.
Although she sold hundreds of them, the woman was still very disappointed. She said a few more words to Anang, who then said:
“Actually, it’s a bit expensive if sold individually. We don’t want to rip you off, but this pine tree is the only one that has mutated among the hundreds of acres of pine trees planted by this lady, and it’s the only one that can produce pine nuts now.
But this lady can't find enough food to satisfy her needs. If anyone can buy a tree, she can get it cheaper. She wants food and meat that has a long shelf life, preferably something that her children can eat. Otherwise, she will have to take this tree with her to the Middle East.
Jingshu was just thinking about whether she could buy a tree to take back home. After all, the pine nuts are so delicious. No matter how many you buy, there will always be a day when they are all eaten.
None of them are as pleasing as what you can produce yourself.
I didn't expect this woman to want to sell trees? And she also wanted all kinds of food?
Jingshu stood up.
"Wow, Boss Jing is going to make another move."
"If you ask me, who in the entire team can buy a tree, it's only Captain Jingshu."
"5
"There's only one can of pine nuts, but that tree would have to produce dozens of tons of cans, right? Isn't that a bit too expensive?"
"But if we sell these pine nuts back home, we can make a lot of money. They really taste delicious."
Anang had already seen Jingshu. This woman has always been the core of this team, and she also has the highest transaction volume in this transaction. Both the iron and the car are hers. She is definitely capable.
So, Anang asked with a smile, "Excuse me, Miss Jingshu, do you have a lot of canned meat? This lady is in great need of it."
This lady just auctioned off all the limited-edition canned meat, but she has a large family, and only a few thousand cans isn't enough. And with the end of the world, canned meat will only become increasingly scarce.
Jingshu shook her head: "I'm sorry, I don't have canned meat or anything like that."
Ah Nang showed a regretful look. Among all the food nowadays, canned meat was the most expensive. The others were not worth much.
He said, "If it's not canned meat, then other things might not be enough to exchange for such a precious pine nut tree. This tree is a product of apocalyptic energy."
Jingshu whispered a few words to Zhang Yicheng, and Zhang Yicheng let out a sigh and trotted out.
Originally Jingshu brought a big black box, but it was not easy to take out too many things. She understood that this woman wanted fine products, which made it easy because she had the most of these things.
So Zhang Yicheng went outside to bring in two Hulks.
Jingshu said, "Wait a moment, my people are going to get the goods, and they will have what you want."
Anang babble a few words with the black-robed woman, asking everyone to wait a moment. However, the woman didn't understand Jingshu's strength and asked with some doubt:
"I just want canned meat and other foods that have a long shelf life and are high in energy and nutrition. To be honest, my family has no shortage of food. We also have oil mines, but having enough to eat and eating well are two different things.
I also want my children to eat better, eat normal food before the end of the world, instead of eating black and red worms every day.
Otherwise, if I sell the pine nuts this tree produces every year, it would be enough to buy all kinds of food here."
