Chapter 43: A Big Reward
Maizi didn't know that the several edible plants she "discovered" in the desert oasis had won her considerable fame and credits under the manipulation of Adjutant Chen.
Therefore, her digging of precious medicinal plants in the forest attracted much more attention than she expected.
What's more, she didn't know that when she was sleeping comfortably, almost no one in the game program team could sleep peacefully. They were disturbed by various messages and felt itchy.
So when the day came, everyone in the 눃存 game program team, from the director to the odd jobs, looked listless, but some people still had bright eyes.
The female assistant who had contact with Lucy Xi was one of them. When Lucy Xi left the Xi family and joined the game program group, she was the one who picked her up, so this female assistant had Lucy Xi's communication number.
The director kept receiving messages, some of which he ignored, but some of which he had to answer. After hanging up the message again, the director looked numb.
The female assistant asked tentatively: "Director, should we contact Lucy 께 to ask about the situation? Lucy 께's live studio is about to explode."
The fact that Lucy discovered useful plants in the forest should have been a good publicity hotspot, but strangely, not only was it not on the hot forum, there was no related discussion even on the Huangguo Live Streaming Platform forum.
Privately, the messages of the program staff were almost blown up, all of them hoping that they could help contact Miss Lucy and talk to her about cooperating in the development of Water Blue Star plants.
The female assistant received a message from a direct descendant of one of the top ten families in the Blue and Black Empire. The other party promised that if she could help him contact Miss Lucy in the next two days, she would be paid 5 million.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't tempted. After all, it was such a huge sum of money, and the other party only asked her to help him contact Miss Lucy, and didn't ask her to do anything else.
But the female assistant is not stupid. Although there is no sound on the surface, there are undercurrents beneath the surface. Especially since the aristocratic families have all been mobilized and are willing to pay such a high reward, all these signs can show that the problem is very serious.
The female assistant suspected that the plants found by Miss Lucy might be more than just edible.
Although the female assistant wanted money, she valued her life more. But it was a bit unfair to give up on such a huge sum of money without even trying hard, so she swallowed and ran over to test the director.
Even female assistants can be bribed with such high stakes, let alone directors.
But the director did not dare to be moved. He heard the female assistant's temptation and the expressions of other people in the program crew. He thought that these people were his own people after all, and he might also be implicated if they made mistakes.
He said simply, "Prince Arthur will send someone to handle this matter. And Miss Lucy is not someone you can easily mess with, so don't do anything you shouldn't do."
The program crew didn't know what Prince Arthur did for Maizi in private, but the fact that Sister Lucy was Prince Arthur's savior was already known to almost everyone in the Blue and Black Empire.
So after hearing what the director said, all the excited hearts in the program crew suddenly calmed down.
If it was anyone else, everyone might still dare to think about it, but for Prince Arthur, forget it.
Besides, just like the director said, Lucy is definitely not someone you can easily mess with. Now everyone is thinking back to the news a few months ago about Lucy being a loser, and they think that you can't judge a person by his appearance.
Just look at the Xi family and you will know. It is said that the head of the family is changing.
Everyone was disappointed, but then they remembered one thing: their director said he was Prince Arthur's distant cousin.
Judging from the relationship chart, it is true, but there is a prerequisite here. In the hearts of the people, it has to be recognized by Prince Arthur.
Over the years, everyone thought that Prince Arthur could not possibly remember the director's cousin from the Eighth Route Army.
But now, after hearing what the director said, he actually had private contact with Prince Arthur, everyone's disappointment disappeared for the most part, and they looked at the director with bright eyes.
If the director gets the recognition of Prince Arthur, then the value of those who follow the director on the Huangguo Live Broadcasting Platform will be different.
…
With the support of the mutated Gastrodia elata, Mai Bozi is no longer worried about over-consumption of mental energy and being unable to cope with crises.
At night she practiced her spiritual powers to her heart's content, and then drank Gastrodia elata juice to restore her powers. It was very luxurious, but the progress she made in one night of practice was almost equal to that of the previous ten nights.
After Maizi had eaten and drunk his fill, he left the tree house and headed in the opposite direction from yesterday.
According to her estimation, someone would most likely come to see her today.
Her live broadcast room now has hundreds of millions of people following it. She dug up precious medicinal plants so high-profile yesterday, so it is impossible that she doesn’t know the goods.
Therefore, the place where she dug up the medicine yesterday may have been marked by someone.
Therefore, Mai Wong-tzu did not plan to go back to the area where he dug up precious medicinal plants yesterday, even though there were still two ginseng plants and a lot of Polygonum multiflorum there.
Maizi observed the forest she passed through. Although she went in the opposite direction, the surrounding geographical environment and vegetation were similar.
Last night, her wood ability was upgraded to level three. Mai Bozi plans to experiment again today to see if her wood ability can really discover powerful plants.
Sure enough, after her wood-type ability was upgraded, her perception ability also increased a lot. Not long after Mai Dongzi entered the forest, her wood-type ability sensed the faint energy fluctuations of the medicinal plants.
She went over to take a look and found that it was a mutant ginseng. Her perception distance was two meters yesterday, and it had improved to three meters today.
Mutated ginseng is also very useful to Maizi, so she will not let it go. She showed it to everyone yesterday, and she only harvested one ginseng, so she is not afraid even if she harvests more ginseng in public.
However, the method she used yesterday cannot be used today, otherwise if others find that wherever she goes, the above-ground parts are still intact, but the underground plants are missing, they will definitely suspect her.
You can do things that make money quietly once when the opportunity arises, but you can't do it all the time, otherwise it will be considered as greed and it will easily leave trouble behind.
Throughout the morning, apart from a mutant ginseng, Maizi only found a Gastrodia elata.
I don’t know if it’s because this plant of Gastrodia elata “lives alone”, but the roots are large and numerous. After Mai 늳子 dug it up, she found that the energy concentration of this plant of Gastrodia elata is greater than the one she dug up yesterday.
There were actually more than seventeen pieces of mutated Gastrodia elata in this nest. Mai Wanzi took advantage of the situation and secretly collected ten pieces using his mental power, and only a dozen pieces were presented to the audience in the live broadcast room.
This number is not too much. She was more conservative when digging for Gastrodia elata yesterday, and secretly put away only five pieces of the extra Gastrodia elata. Therefore, the largest number of Gastrodia elata known to the public yesterday was more than ten pieces.
In the afternoon, even though Mai Zi was very attentive, she only found one Gastrodia elata plant, and there were only thirteen pieces in one nest.
