Fried chicken wings
Hu Mifeng came to buy shoes. Rubber shoes weren't selling well in his territory, but production was high. Ye Miaomiao packed up the extras and sold them to him, ensuring at least one pair per person in his territory.
The conversation should have ended there, and Hu Mifeng should have left. But he sat there motionless, as if nails had been driven into his buttocks, waiting for Li Yihan to speak.
Li Yihan glanced at him and said, "We have points in our territory, so we don't need to buy things in bulk to get discounts. I'll give you more points so you can research technology and complete the game as soon as possible."
This made Hu Mifeng sound inferior. Hu Mifeng glared at her and immediately felt that he was right not to leave. Who knew what else this person could say.
Hu Mifeng/Li Yihan: No matter how I look at each other, I find them unpleasant.
"Oh, actually, what I wanted to say is that I've been delivering packages and visiting border crossings a lot lately, and I've noticed that other territories are very short of food. Some have even resorted to eating snow and tree bark."
"It's a famine," Hu Mifeng said, trying to make conversation, but he sighed mid-sentence. "That's right. Winter is here, and we can't farm or raise livestock. There's no food in the wild. Where will we get food?"
He added, "Luckily, an evolution point suddenly appeared. Many people used it to reverse-evolve their 'interstellar level' to the primitive level. That made the amount of wood used reasonable. Otherwise, many more people would have frozen to death!"
Li Yihan was in no mood to look at him and sighed. Everyone feels the same.
Ye Miaomiao was puzzled: "Can't we just use evolution points to unlock charcoal?"
Li Yihan looked at her like she was stupid. "You need to look up the coal map on the computer to unlock it. It's so simple, who doesn't want charcoal? Who has it?"
Ye Miaomiao gently pointed at the fireplace.
Li Yihan continued, "I know Miaomiao, you think using charcoal is more cost-effective, and that's true. But you need to use a computer to unlock it. Doesn't evolutionary points directly lead to the Internet age? That would mean..."
She was halfway through her words when her eyes suddenly widened.
That wood...why is it black?
Only then did she realize that she had a preconceived notion that the fireplace was burning wood and hadn't paid any attention since she walked in. Now she realized that it wasn't wood at all, it was clearly charcoal!
"Miaomiao! No, my thigh!" Li Yihan's voice trembled, and he immediately changed his address: "Where did you get the charcoal? Don't you need a computer..."
She was halfway through her words when she suddenly realized something and turned to Hu Mifeng: "The shoes you just said you wanted to pack, aren't they just ordinary shoes?"
As he spoke, he took the sample on the table, looked it up and down, left and right, and widened his eyes.
"Rubber shoes!"
She glared at Hu Mifeng fiercely, then looked at Ye Miaomiao with tears in her eyes: "Tui'er, such a good thing, why don't you sell it to me? I also have points. I have raised so many monsters, I have plenty of points!"
She was telling the truth. Li Yihan's speed in amassing wealth was indeed unmatched by ordinary people.
Ye Miaomiao sent her a screenshot of the store: "I still have down jackets and duvets. I'll give you a set first. But I can't sell you a large quantity for the time being. There are not enough for the residents of the territory."
Li Yihan's eyes were filled with tears. Ye Miaomiao said she wanted to send her off because she loved her.
"You can look at the rest yourself," Ye Miaomiao was saying when she met Hu Mifeng's surprised eyes.
Hu Mifeng knew Ye Miaomiao loved stockpiling and was hungry for resources. But he didn't expect Ye Miaomiao's friend, Li Yihan, to say...
She raises monsters?
His eyes became complicated, but he couldn't understand something.
Most of God’s people who have experienced this know and have witnessed the dangers of divine light. This thing is only useful temporarily, and its side effects far exceed ordinary people’s imagination.
What's the point of raising monsters?
Li Yihan was pleased with herself and immediately shared her theory about selling monster organs with him. She only raised level one monsters, which were not very lethal, had no consciousness, grew quickly, and could be recycled. It was a safe and guilt-free business, a truly excellent one.
Hu Mifeng was stunned when he heard this, obviously shocked.
Ye Miaomiao covered her forehead, remembering a sentence from a Paradox player: "Your evil deeds are known to everyone from Ireland to Khitan." She felt that Li Yihan was going further and further down this path.
"Then this meat..." Hu Mifeng pondered: "Can humans eat it?"
"Of course not!" Li Yihan still had a conscience and said hurriedly, "Don't even think about it. This is a bug that we sell to the system to make money."
"Like this..." Hu Mifeng felt a little regretful. His job was a courier, and the more he walked, the more he saw.
Too many people starved to death. Nothing could be worse than the purgatory of cold and hunger in the apocalypse. When starvation reaches its peak, even kaolin clay is revered as "Guanyin." Even if the meat was produced by monsters, they would eat it without hesitation.
It’s their business whether they want to eat it or not, but Hu Mifeng can’t and doesn’t want to sell the meat against his conscience.
"But..." Ye Miaomiao suddenly touched her chin and took out the golden contract.
Since the contract can use the divine light and eliminate the side effects of the divine light, perhaps it can also solve the negative effects of these meats.
She quickly looked around and actually found a machine in a corner.
[Top up your fryer: Make all fried foods healthy and low-calorie! Isn't that exciting?! First top up 200 points (2 Shenguang) and get a free fryer and one liter of "special oil." Please note, only special oil can make food healthy!]
After Ye Miaomiao showed the interface to Li Yihan, a divine light immediately appeared at her hand - Li Yihan knew the importance of this matter. If this could be accomplished... she couldn't even imagine it!
As a farmer who raises monsters, divine light is indispensable!
Ye Miaomiao bought the machine immediately, and three pairs of eyes stared at this "ordinary" fryer inquiringly.
There are only three buttons on it: an "oil out" button above the coin slot, a "start" button, and an "end" button.
"Like a three-no product." Li Yihan gave the definition. However, what she herself did was even more of a three-no thing, so she immediately went back to the territory to get the meat.
Before leaving, he put on the sample shoes and walked with his head held high. He was back in just ten minutes.
[Monster's organ (chicken wing): Its name is chicken wing, and it looks like a chicken wing, but do you really think it is a chicken wing?
Warm reminder: Meat contains a divine light effect, please eat with caution. 】
Hu Mifeng scanned the information and cautiously said, "This doesn't look like food."
[Do you really think these are chicken wings?] No normal person would think these are chicken wings.
"Try it," Li Yihan threw the meat in, then clicked "fat out", froze for a moment, and then stepped aside - "Only you can do it, you have the props bound to you."
Ye Miaomiao stepped forward and pressed "Start".
Then, there was a long wait.
The aroma of meat gradually filled the air. As expected of a contract product, the aroma was quite alluring. But all three of them knew it wasn't good meat at all. Their senses were drawn to the aroma, but their minds kept telling them, "What if it's not good? What if it's just shit?"
Finally, the frying process ended with a "beep" sound.
Li Yihan couldn't wait to look at it. [Fried Chicken Wings: Specially made healthy and nutritious food. Restores hunger 10;]
[Yes, these are chicken wings! Friendly reminder, please don't chase the chicken to eat them. The chicken wings are real chicken wings, but I don't know if the chicken is a real chicken.]
Li Yihan was surprised: "It actually works!"
What else can be called healthy food? Even normal fried foods are not healthy foods. How can these non-chicken wings be considered healthy food? It's a miracle!
The three of them looked at each other, and all saw the word "making money" in each other's eyes.
"I'll put up an ad first to see if there are enough buyers. Of course, I'll clearly state that the meat comes from monsters." Hu Mifeng is quite experienced. "Once we get an order, we'll start shipping."
"In my opinion, we can start mass production. The famine is so severe that food is almost unavailable. As I said before, even if these chicken wings are bad, they are still healthy and nutritious. How can they be worse than Guanyin soil?"
However, before that, Ye Miaomiao captured some able-bodied men for testing - the piglets in the territory.
After the test, the piglet showed no change, as if it had just eaten ordinary chicken wings. This is when everyone decided to officially start the business.
The cost of meat is extremely low, and the processing procedure also uses the divine light from monsters, so the cost of the finished product is as low as less than 1 point for 10 servings.
However, the three of them are not doing charity, so the price will not be lowered too much.
Li Yihan provides the meat and divine light, Ye Miaomiao provides the manpower, and Hu Mifeng sells them, forming a complete production line. In the end, everyone can earn 1-2 points for every 10 pieces.
Ye Miaomiao didn't keep busy with this business, because when she talked about God's people, she suddenly remembered something -
Didn’t Hua Ji and the others come here just to get the “indenture”?
At first, Ye Miaomiao thought that this was a fictitious thing, but now she suddenly realized that the indenture had indeed been in her possession from the beginning, but in the form of "fragments".
Ye Miaomiao immediately rushed to the chicken coop and handed the indenture to the chicken.
"I don't know how to use it..." Hua Ji scratched the ground: "I only know that there is something in our territory that needs to be used with this indenture, and then we can regain our freedom."
Ye Miaomiao: “…” Are you sure you want to regain your freedom, not regain 996?
She had the chicken try to leave its footprints on "Party A," and the same message appeared: [From "Selling Body Contract": Sorry, you are not the correct Party A.]
Ye Miaomiao sighed and was about to take back the contract, but the chicken's foot slipped and pressed on "Party B" again.
[From "Selling a Body Contract": Congratulations, you have found the right Party B! ]
Ye Miaomiao: “!”
She looked at the pheasant with complicated eyes.
The indenture does not indicate "Party B has signed the contract" but "Party B has been found", which means that Huaji has been the Party B in the indenture from the very beginning.
Unexpectedly, Huaji, who looks like he only needs to eat and drink every day and has thick eyebrows and big eyes, has secretly become a 007.
"I suddenly..." The brooding chicken suddenly raised its head, "I suddenly heard the voice of God."
Ye Miaomiao: “…” That’s right, that’s the voice of your God telling you to work.
"He said..." The brooding chicken tilted its head, as if listening carefully, "please ask me to abide by the rules, otherwise I will receive a huge backlash penalty. Only the rules can protect me. Otherwise..."
His voice suddenly became sharp: "Or I might degenerate?"
Ye Miaomiao: “…?”
The brooding chicken looked at Ye Miaomiao for comfort: "Miaomiao, I haven't degenerated, have I?"
Ye Miaomiao: If you were a chicken before, then not only did you not exist, you also evolved. The problem is, I don’t know what you were before!
Ye Miaomiao had to start thinking carefully about the relationship between the divine light, God's people, and this contract.
The contract clearly has the effect of controlling the divine light, and is above the divine light. As Party B is a child of God, it is very reasonable. After all, the people of God rely on the effect of the divine light.
Who is Party A? Or rather, who enslaved God's people?
First, rule out Ye Miaomiao.
This problem cannot be figured out in a short time, so Ye Miaomiao can only let it go for now.
"The portal will soon reach friendly status. I'll take the indenture contract with me and take a look." The indenture contract was bound to Ye Miaomiao, and she couldn't give it to anyone else.
The pheasant rarely felt sad, so it nodded.
He was worried that he would degenerate again, so Ye Miaomiao patted his wings and said, "Whether you speak animal language or human language, I have an animal language teacher who can understand you. I'm here for you to take your orders, don't worry."
Brambling Chicken: Thank you, I feel comforted.
The fifteenth day in the frozen snowfield.
The first light bulb lit up at the research institute, and the news spread instantly throughout the territory. Although Hungry Hungry had not yet officially entered the electrical age, was that far off?
The entire territory was in an uproar, but this was not good news for Charles.
Charles sat haggard in his chair—he had failed again.
I don’t know if it’s because of his bad luck that he is in this situation, or if there is some villain who stops him. Every time he tries to poison Ye Miaomiao, there will always be various accidents that lead to the failure of poisoning.
For six whole days, he planned and tried at least once every day, but each time it was a different process with the same result.
For six days, he received a cuckoo message every day, starting with "Get going, get going, get going," then "Hurry up, hurry up," and finally the night before, "I'm leaving."
Charles went from being nervous and fearful at first to being furious and determined to win, and finally to despair. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't poison Ye Miaomiao to death.
This woman is poisonous!
Charles opened the paper package and found the final poison inside. He knew that today was his last chance. He had to poison Ye Miaomiao to death, otherwise, "I'm leaving," and that unknown person would come.
