Bai Chang suddenly had an idea: "You can pretend to be a playboy, and I and Miss will play your subordinates, and take advantage of your power."
If anyone asks who you are, just say you are Bai Hao (Bai Shuang's uncle's son).
Bai Shuang also thought it was a good idea, "We can do that next time we go to an unfamiliar place."
"Please spare me, I don't want to play the spoiled brat."
The next morning, Bai Shuang took out her own steamed buns, eggs, fried dough sticks, soy milk, and other food.
This morning I gave the snow leopard and the monkey extra chicken legs.
The monkey king has now been tamed. He no longer makes a mess of the space and even helps with chores when he has nothing to do. Bai Shuang rewards him for this.
The hotel accommodation fee does not include meals. Food is too expensive now. In the extremely cold season, it is good enough to have heating and hot water. You have to use points to buy food at the restaurant downstairs or eat at restaurants outside.
As Bai Jiu ate, he sighed, "Our family's food is still the best. The food outside is ridiculously expensive, and the taste isn't even that great."
Bai Chang: "It's been almost two years since the natural disaster, and everything is scarce outside. Do you still think it's like before the disaster?"
"Of course I know, I'm just expressing my feelings, is that not allowed?"
After the three finished their meal, put away the monkey, checked the room one last time to see if there were any leaks, and then went downstairs.
Just then, the older boy who had led the way yesterday also arrived.
"Go to the Agricultural Research Institute."
The three followed behind the older boy. The snow leopard looked around curiously, sniffing here and there, and occasionally jumping around.
Bai Jiu: "Miss, should we give them the monkey fruit?"
"Let's see if we can exchange it for points."
Bai Shuang can share the monkey fruit with everyone, but there's no such thing as giving it away for free. Imagine if you were in a miserable situation, who would lend a hand?
The agricultural research institute was about 600 meters away from the hotel where Bai Shuang and the others were staying. There were electric vehicles that could take people around the base, but the group chose to walk.
On such a cold day, moving around is good exercise; walking and looking around can also help you get familiar with the base.
As I passed by a street, a notice posted on the wall attracted a lot of people.
Bai Shuang and the others, out of curiosity, went over to take a look, only to find that it was a notice seeking medical help:
Zuo's mother is seriously ill, and a high reward is offered for a doctor with excellent medical skills.
If the condition is cured, a reward of 10,000 points will be given; if the condition is alleviated, a reward of 1,000 points will be given, excluding medical expenses...
The people around them stared greedily at the words "one thousand points" and "ten thousand points," all regretting why they hadn't studied medicine before. They all wished they could start studying it right now.
After taking a look, Bai Shuang and the others left.
Bai Jiu muttered to himself as he walked, "If he can't be cured, will he get nothing, just like Young Master Zuo said? If he dies, will he have to pay with his life?"
"Miss, I heard them say last night that it seems to be a flare-up of high blood pressure. Can't the base hospital treat it?"
"It could be due to a lack of effective treatments, or it could be due to advanced age or multiple underlying medical conditions."
Regardless of whether it can be cured or not, Bai Shuang will not go. Based on Young Master Zuo's attitude towards the doctor yesterday, Bai Shuang's impression of this family has been greatly diminished.
Is being rich a great thing?
Bai Jiu asked the young man, "Do you know anything about the Zuo family?"
"I don't know much about them. I only know that their family is very well-off, and that Young Master Zuo is usually very arrogant. That's all I know."
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the agricultural research institute. The three of them and the dog walked into the hall, while the boy was still waiting at the door.
"Do you want to buy seeds?"
Bai Shuang: "What kinds of cold-resistant seeds are here?"
"Only cold-resistant potatoes, cold-resistant sweet potatoes, and purple cabbage are available."
Bai Shuang spent 20 points to buy a bunch of cold-resistant sweet potato seedlings.
Do you buy cold-resistant varieties?
"Yes, do you have any?"
"How many points?"
"That depends on its practical value. If you have any, I'll have my technicians come over to discuss it, but I need to see it first."
Bai Shuang showed her two monkey fruits, saying, "This is a cold-resistant fruit."
Upon hearing about fruit, the receptionist immediately became excited; how long had it been since she had eaten fruit?
"Is it edible?"
\"certainly."
\"Hold on."
The receptionist picked up something that looked like an old-fashioned cell phone and started dialing...
Then she took Bai Shuang and the others to an office.
Several people were waiting there. When they saw Bai Shuang and the others come in, their eyes involuntarily turned to the snow leopard. They were slightly surprised. They didn't expect that in the apocalypse, there would still be people who raised dogs so well!
Only then did they turn their attention to Bai Shuang and the other two.
"I heard you brought some cold-resistant fruit?"
"Yes, but I'd still like to hear how you handle this situation first."
"For varieties with good practical value, we offer a reward of 10,000 points, but this must be verified by us."
How do I verify this?
"The first step is for you to give us the seeds and planting method. Then, we will plant them according to the method you provide, and the seeds will germinate and sprout from the soil."
The second step is that the plant grows successfully and produces fruit.
"Will it bear fruit? That would take too long. We can't wait. We're only staying at the base temporarily; we have other things to do later."
My suggestion is that you contribute half the points first, and then I will give you the seeds and planting methods.
Approximately ten days later, the seeds will sprout and the plants will survive. Half a month later, you will pay the other half of the points.
As she spoke, Bai Shuang took out a few monkey fruits and a section of vine to show them, and the researchers' eyes were immediately drawn to them.
"This fruit is rich in vitamins and has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. If you agree, the deal is done; if not, forget it."
Several researchers, hearing Bai Shuang speak so professionally, couldn't help but ask curiously, "What do you do for a living?"
