Xia Chuhe racked his brains but still couldn't figure out where the missing 20% was.
The butler's message interrupted Xia Chuhe's thoughts: Miss Xia, please check the contract.
Mutant Plant Collection Contract.pdf
Xia Chuhe opened the contract and saw that it provided coordinates; Five Star Company needed a large number of mutated plants. Because the mission was somewhat dangerous, Five Star Company could provide weapons in return.
Collecting the mutated plants was not difficult; Five Star Company only offered a reward of 10,000 for each type of plant.
Butler: In principle, the weapons provided this time should not include high-level weapons. However, as a senior partner of Five Star Company, I have some room for maneuver.
Following the procedures outlined in the contract, Xia Chuhe downloaded the Five Star Company's exclusive app and then applied for bullets.
While browsing the app, Xia Chuhe glanced at the task bar. Most of the tasks were acquisition tasks, which were snapped up instantly.
Perhaps it's because the purchase price is higher than that at the base acquisition point.
The housekeeper quickly approved four magazines for Xia Chuhe, totaling twenty bullets.
Butler: This is all I can approve at a time. Go to the Five-Star Shopping Mall tomorrow to pick it up. If you run out of bullets in subsequent missions, feel free to request more.
Xia Chuhe: "..."
The butler was quite adept at the art of subtle hints, making everything instantly understandable.
Xia Chuhe: Besides the school at the base, do you know where else educational services can be provided?
Butler: There are no other educational services on the lower floors.
Xia Chuhe had expected this answer. She continued, "Are there any websites where I can download books?"
The butler typed for a long time before the message finally appeared: "Miss Xia, please don't joke around. Books are the most valuable asset of the upper class and will never be allowed to leave."
Xia Chuhe, living in the age of knowledge explosion: ...
I never imagined that one day I would find myself wanting to learn but having no opportunity to do so.
But upon closer reflection, books are the ladder of human progress and the enlightenment of human thought. When the upper class monopolizes knowledge and books, isn't that fundamentally cutting off the path for the lower class to rise?
Xia Chuhe thought for a moment and sent Wang Yan a message: Where did you buy your dictionary?
Wang Yan: Shop No. 02, an unknown person
Xia Chuhe breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough...
The unsung hero is no ordinary man. He runs a shop, specializing in machinery; he's a top-tier assassin, capable of killing with a single blow…
The shop is filled with countless "antiques," including even valuable books...
Xia Chuhe mentally stamped the nameless individual's name—a powerful organization, worth trying to cooperate with.
Xia Chuhe decided to visit the nameless group again to see if he could get more information about the organization.
Before setting off, Xia Chuhe glanced at the old hen diligently incubating eggs on the farm, then turned to send a message to Li Qiusheng: Have you bought everything?
Li Qiusheng: Soon
Xia Chuhe: I'll get it for you later. If you have time, could you buy me some devil worms?
Li Qiusheng: Okay
Xia Chuhe entered the base and went straight to the nameless man.
02 As usual, he casually greeted us with "Welcome, feel free to choose~", and then buried his head in tapping on his phone.
Xia Chuhe glanced at 02's screen; it was all white, the beautiful bodies of paper-thin figures...
Xia Chuhe: ...Not sure, let me think about it some more.
Xia Chuhe squinted, trying to see more clearly, when a suppressed, seductive "Mmm~" came from 02's phone.
02. With a "snap," she turned her phone face down, looked up, and smiled: "Guest, what would you like?"
Xia Chuhe looked at 02's rosy cheeks and said with a righteous expression, "I want to find a game where the protagonist is a female designer who encounters different people in her life, such as a seemingly cold but actually affectionate senior, a president who carries darkness but yearns for light, a seemingly calm but actually crazy race car driver, and a sunny and cheerful big boy, like this one."
As Xia Chuhe recounted the story, 02's eyes lit up more and more: "Is there really such a game?"
Xia Chuhe blinked: "Hmm, I don't know, that's why I came here to look for it."
02 was clearly a little disappointed: "Oh...do you have any more details about the game? I'd like to keep an eye out for you."
Xia Chuhe: "..."
Although Xia Chuhe worked as a game designer for a while, he didn't work with otome games and didn't have much experience in that area.
However, the hype is definitely enough: "There aren't many game details, but there are other games. For example, you open a restaurant in a magical country where all the dishes have become handsome men. For example, chicken stew with mushrooms is a ruggedly handsome man, and Peking duck is a proud and beautiful emperor..."
02. With wide eyes and a face full of curiosity.
Xia Chuhe shut his mouth, revealing a mischievous smile.
02 Suddenly realizing she had been tricked, she angrily turned off her phone and said irritably, "What do you want?"
"Buy some storybooks suitable for children."
"No," 02 said. "Does the master want to see it?"
"Let me take a look."
02 He pulled out a book from under the cabinet. The pages were tattered and the three characters "Jin Ping Mei" were written on them.
Xia Chuhe readily turned to a page: "It's a classic."
02 slapped her hand away: "Don't look if you're not buying."
"Buy it, of course I want to buy it, name your price."
02. He made an outrageous demand: "100,000 points."
Without a word, Xia Chuhe transferred 100,000 yuan to her. Her smile faded: "Now, can I buy the books for my child?"
02 pulled out two blank sheets of paper and whispered, "Write a story first, either your own or someone else's, it's fine."
Xia Chuhe: "...I have points."
02 didn't say anything, but simply pushed the two pieces of paper a little further towards Xia Chuhe.
Xia Chuhe knew that 02 would not back down on this matter, so she had no choice but to accept the blank paper and "Jin Ping Mei" and leave the nameless person.
Xia Chuhe and Li Qiusheng agreed to meet at the furniture store.
Li Qiusheng bought the devil worm and picked out the furniture.
Xia Chuhe paid and took everything into the farm. Just as she was about to leave, she remembered something: she needed to prepare a small gift for Lu Dangui.
Xia Chuhe casually sketched out a small garment on the counter: "These small garments come in various sizes, two of each. I also need a retractable rope."
Xia Chuhe described the situation to the shop owner, and after confirming that the shop owner understood, he paid a deposit and agreed to pick up the goods the next day.
On my way home, I passed by Sister Li's Food Shop.
Xia Chuhe packed some food and pressed for details about the honey again.
Sister Li tossed her hair: "Hurry up, hurry up, are you trying to kill me? Here you go, five thousand points."
Having received the honey, Xia Chuhe, in a good mood, transferred the money and left.
With that, Li Qiusheng and Zhao Maomao were finally settled, and the promises to the old hen and hummingbird were fulfilled. Only Bao'er's education remained to be resolved.
