Chapter 444 "...They were all flower seeds!"
(Thanks to Nightmare...Banzhanqianshang for casting 2 monthly tickets.)
It was almost midnight when Li Shiyue finally got enough of looking at the full moon in the sky. With a little effort, she sat up and tucked her legs in, sitting cross-legged on the boulder.
In fact, she can now immerse her consciousness in the system in any position and conduct online transactions with hosts from other worlds.
After all, her outward appearance is only what people in this world can see of her.
Within the system in her mind, Li Shiyue's projection was a miniature version of her own consciousness, like a shrunk version of herself by hundreds of times, tiny and connected to an electronic screen in a simulated environment.
This consciousness figure can only be seen by the two parties involved in the transaction. Whether she is lying down or standing up in the outside world does not affect the fact that the consciousness figure is sitting.
However, given the right conditions, Li Shiyue still wants to approach live-streaming transactions with a serious attitude.
As soon as midnight arrived, Li Shiyue's consciousness was immersed in the system.
After the buzzing of the electronic voice chat, the screen flashed and Su Xia's smiling face with her eyes crinkled appeared.
"Xiaxia!"
"October!"
Su Xia still had her buzz cut, which made her look really cool.
Li Shiyue was very envious of Su Xia's buzz cut. Every time she connected with Su Xia on video, she felt very envious of Su Xia's freedom to do with her hair.
Li Shiyue has been in the Great Long Dynasty for seven or eight years. She doesn't have high requirements for food and drink, but she really hates her waist-length hair!
Seriously, as a military general, whether she is practicing martial arts in her daily life or leading troops into battle, even if she wears a man's hairstyle on her head, the sweat, dust, and the metabolism of her scalp really make people want to take a shower and wash their hair every day!
But for her, washing her hair every day is harder than climbing to heaven!
Even after finally washing it, drying this long hair is still a real hassle.
If it's the height of summer, you can just sit in the sun for half an hour and you'll be completely dry.
But in winter, apart from the Lunar New Year, it's so troublesome to wash your hair properly that Li Shiyue often has the urge to shave her head bald.
At that time, apart from monks and nuns, no one would shave their head.
After all, people believe in the saying, "Our bodies and hair are given to us by our parents, and we dare not regret it."
Therefore, deep down, Li Shiyue truly envied Su Xia's buzz cut!
Li Shiyue and Su Xia greeted each other and talked about the ten benefits of women having buzz cuts before getting to the main topic of today's transaction.
"Xiaxia, I've prepared all the food you mentioned last time. I've also specially prepared some pastries sold in our local pastry shops for you. I think they're quite delicious!"
This jujube paste cake is very fragrant but not overly sweet. Try it sometime; if you like it, I'll bring you some more next time!
For more than a year, Su Xia survived for half a year in that underground shelter by relying on the ample food she obtained through transactions with Li Shiyue.
Then, after trading almost all the available supplies with Li Shiyue in the underground shelter, she walked out of the shelter with a backpack, a gas mask she bought from Li Shiyue (the middleman) from Zhang Lanlan in the futuristic world, and an electric gun.
After overcoming numerous hardships, Su Xia finally entered a human survivor base.
Because of the trading system, Su Xia also became a middleman, and with Li Shiyue's support, she had plenty of food.
Don't worry about what flavor those sacks of rice, wheat and beans that Li Shiyue gave you are, they're edible anyway!
For the surviving humans in a zombie apocalypse world where food and medicine are scarce, this is the most delicious food!
Within a few months, Su Xia had become a prominent businessman in the survivor base.
But she was too conspicuous and aroused the jealousy of others. During one outing, she almost died!
Yes, it was just a little short.
Because in a life-or-death situation, Su Xia awakened her supernatural abilities!
Her superpower is a highly practical and innovative one—water control!
right!
It's all about controlling the water!
She can manipulate water to achieve whatever she wants.
It is important to know that water is an essential component of all living things, including humans.
Sixty to seventy percent of the human body is water!
What if she has the ability to control water, even if she can only control the water in the enemy's nasal cavity and throat for a short time?
If those two places are blocked off, how could anyone still be alive?
Su Xia also became famous overnight because of that sneak attack!
After that incident, Su Xia lost her desire to hide and conceal herself; she actually joined a ten-person team.
After receiving the Pathfinder mission from the base, Su Xia started going out with his teammates to fight zombies and earn crystal cores!
This cute little crystal core isn't just something Su Xia can absorb to restore her supernatural energy reserves;
For Li Shiyue, this thing was her internal energy battery!
It's incredibly useful for her to use to recharge her internal energy when she needs to quickly deplete it!
At the same time, this crystal core is even more useful to Bai Zixuan than spirit stones!
Therefore, roughly every two months, Li Shiyue would proactively initiate a transaction request to Su Xia.
The reason is that the crystal cores that Su Xia has are really useful to her personally and to other friends in the system's trading system!
At this moment, upon hearing Li Shiyue say that she had brought her jujube paste cake, Su Xia, who was already smiling with her eyes crinkled, now had her eyes completely closed, her eyes practically squinting into slits with joy.
"Good October!"
I knew it!
Don't worry, last month Lao Wang and I went to an abandoned hospital, fought a lot of zombies, and got a lot of crystal cores!
Besides the portion I submitted, I still have quite a few left.
This time, I'll pay with your favorite crystal cores!
Because of their good relationship, there was no haggling between the two, and the transaction was completed in just a few breaths.
Then Li Shiyue looked at the electronic screen with hopeful eyes: "Xiaxia, for the next transaction, can you help me find out if you have any smelting technology for metals suitable for use in my ancient world?"
Alternatively, metal forging methods are also acceptable.
I'm doing pretty well now, but I always have to prepare for the future.
So I'm looking for various technologies suitable for use in the ancient world, or if it's convenient for you, could you help me find some high-yield grain varieties?
Speaking of seeds, Li Shiyue seemed to have thought of something at this moment.
At this moment, her face showed a mixture of a smile and a hint of tears, leaving Su Xia on the screen quite bewildered.
Before Su Xia could ask her, Li Shiyue gave a wry smile.
Then she said to Su Xia, "Xia Xia, do you remember the tin box you gave me that contained all sorts of seeds when we first made our deal?"
Su Xia nodded after being reminded by Li Shiyue.
"I thought it would be good if there were some vegetable seeds in that box of seeds. I didn't expect there to be any high-yield grain seeds in it."
Later, I had someone categorize and record the seeds according to their appearance, and found the best farmers to carefully look after them and plant them.
As a result... after more than a year, I finally had to admit a fact.
Xiaxia, that box is full of flower seeds! There aren't any grain seeds, not even a single vegetable seed! It's all flower seeds!
