Listening to Lin Qing's description, Gu Nanxun's eyes lit up. That's great! Just listening to it, Gu Nanxun felt how happy people in later generations are. Just the fact that everyone can have enough to eat is the life that people now dream of. Not to mention that they can eat meat every meal. What a wonderful life that is!
"Qingqing, what is a system?"
The word "system" from Lin Qing's mouth left Gu Nanxun somewhat confused. It was the first time he had heard the term, yet he felt a vague sense of familiarity with it. For some reason, from childhood to adulthood, Gu Nanxun often felt a strange familiarity with certain things. Moreover, he would often master random, seemingly random things, things he had never learned before, as if he had always known them.
"How can I describe it! Brother Nanxun, do you know what a computer is? It's like a computer system, an electronic product similar to a computer, but it has an AI brain, making it much more intelligent and powerful than current computers. For example, I can use my mental energy to plant things in this space right now, which is set up by the system..."
"How should I put it? In short, it's very complicated, and I can't explain exactly what the system is. I can only say that the system allows me to use my mental power to plant, and it also has some high-tech functions that surpass current technology, such as the cooking machine and storage cabinets in the kitchen that you just saw, as well as the multi-functional bathtub in the bathroom. It can also connect to TV series, movies, variety shows, and games from our future. These are all its functions. It can also connect to other dimensions."
"I plant crops every day now, and I can get gold coins by selling them after they mature. Gold coins can be exchanged for points, and points can be used to buy things on Taobao. You can also open interdimensional trading and then trade with people in other dimensions, such as ancient dimensions, technological dimensions, cultivation dimensions, etc. Anyway, it's really amazing!"
"Oh, I see! Will it hurt you?"
Lin Qing said a lot, and Gu Nanxun only understood half of it. But it didn't matter. There was still plenty of time in the future, and he could gradually learn about the system. What he was more worried about now was whether the system would harm Lin Qing.
"No, Brother Nanxun, the system is my good friend. It has helped me a lot. Without it, I would have died long ago, and I would not have been able to travel here from the future."
"Time travel?"
Gu Nanxun asked, puzzled, "Another word I've never heard of before."
"Yes, that's time travel. In novels from later generations, they would classify situations like mine as time travel. It's when a person travels from one world to another, or from one era to another. That's time travel. There's also rebirth, which is when someone dies and can return to their youth."
"..."
Gu Nanxun stared at Lin Qing for a long time without speaking. Was this world really this surreal? Wasn't it said that feudal superstitions were unbelievable, but how come now…
After hearing Lin Qing's explanation, Gu Nanxun rubbed his forehead with his hand, feeling a headache coming on.
"Brother Nanxun, let me show you the warehouse!"
After a long while, seeing that Gu Nanxun had recovered his composure, Lin Qing offered her advice.
"OK!"
Upon hearing Gu Nanxun's agreement, Lin Qing helped Gu Nanxun up and silently recited "warehouse" in her mind. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at the warehouse.
As soon as Gu Nanxun stepped into the warehouse, he was stunned by the scene before him. The first thing that caught his eye was the mountain of various grains, such as rice, wheat, corn, and soybeans. Each type was piled up in stacks, like small mountains, stretching as far as the eye could see.
"Was the grain you sold to Dongzi from here?"
Seeing the mountain of grain before him, Gu Nanxun asked.
"Yes, it's the grain right here. But don't worry, Brother Nanxun, I've disguised myself. Look, I've put on makeup and worn a wig to look like a man."
As she spoke, Lin Qing produced the wig she had worn when she went to the black market.
"Disguise? How did Dongzi recognize you then?"
Gu Nanxun looked at Lin Qing with a half-smile and said.
"Hehe... This isn't my fault, who knew it would be such a coincidence! It's all that apple's fault."
Lin Qing smiled sheepishly.
"Qingqing, don't go next time. Although Dongzi can be trusted, there is still danger. I will go with you after my leg is healed."
Gu Nanxun reached out and gently patted Lin Qing's head, speaking softly.
"Okay, let's go together once Nanxun's leg is healed."
"Um!"
After saying that, Gu Nanxun turned his head again and continued to look at the warehouse.
Beside the grains were rows of shelves, filled with all sorts of daily necessities. From soft towels to exquisite tableware, from colorful seasonings to practical cleaning supplies, everything you could imagine and more was available here.
In one corner of the space, boxes of water and beverages were neatly arranged, with hundreds of different kinds of water and drinks, the crystal-clear liquids shimmering under the light.
And there were mountains of canned goods, from delicious fruits to hearty meats, and rows of shelves next to them displaying all sorts of food packaged in takeout bags...
"Qingqing, is this the food we ate before?"
Seeing that some of the food looked familiar, Gu Nanxun asked.
"Yes, Brother Nanxun, these are the meals I packed from hotels in the future. Hotels are like state-run restaurants nowadays. In the future, there will be all kinds of hotels, restaurants, and snack shops. Back then, as long as you get a business license from the relevant authorities, you can open a restaurant and sell food. Not only restaurants, but also clothing stores, shoe stores, fruit stores, and everything else you can sell."
