Chapter 8 Is Xu Shang so addicted to the internet?



At this time, Xu Shang didn't know that he had become a clown in the show that had just been broadcast.

He was feeling smug about his achievements over the past few days.

First of all, it was the level of herbal farmers. Animal-based medicinal materials seemed to have a much higher experience value than herbs due to comprehensive factors such as price. Therefore, Xu Shang's level rose very quickly, and he reached level four in just a few days.

After upgrading, Xu Shang chose increased radar range and medicinal material processing expertise as passive skills. The radar range of the third-level reward is 5 meters more than that of the second level. Xu Shang's radar range directly reaches 25 meters.

As for the skill of medicinal material processing expertise, herbal farmers already have the ability to process medicinal materials themselves. After clicking on the expertise, there is a certain probability that the quality of the processed medicinal materials will be improved.

In the past few days, Xu Shang processed all the medicinal herbs he collected.

Throwing centipedes on the hot bricks, you can see them dancing on them, and finally they are baked into dried centipedes. Leeches are a little more difficult to process, and need to be slowly dried at 70 degrees. In addition, Xu Shang also processed the windproof and other herbs he collected.

With his current level of processing expertise, he can ensure that the medicinal properties of these herbs can be retained to the greatest extent.

Afterwards, Xu Shang put all the medicinal herbs into the backpack. The weight of dozens of kilograms made Xu Shang's thin body shake. Xu Shang looked at his body and shook his head.

Although my physique seems to have become stronger after obtaining the profession of herbal farmer, I still feel very weak. This does not feel good. It seems that I have to find a way to get a new profession to increase my physical strength in the future.

The new career is still a long way off. The more immediate problem is that Xu Shang knows that with his small body, if he wants to carry so many things to the city, he will probably fall down the mountain halfway.

The good news is that the mountains are not completely walkable.

The bad news is that Xu Shang doesn't have a penny.

After hesitating for a long time, Xu Shang could only find Grandma Sang.

After hearing that Xu Shang was planning to go to the city to sell medicinal herbs, Grandma Sang took out a tightly wrapped handkerchief from her body and spread it out layer by layer, revealing a stack of small change inside, including 20-cent and 50-cent notes, as well as one-yuan and two-yuan notes of slightly larger denominations.

The largest one is the fifty-dollar note, of which there is only one.

But without hesitation, Grandma Sang took out the fifty yuan and put it in Xu Shang's hand, saying kindly: "When you get to town, don't be reluctant to spend money on anything you want to eat or drink. The poor life in the mountains has been hard on you."

When Xu Shang saw Grandma Sang handing him the largest amount of her wealth, his eyes were slightly red, but Xu Shang did not refuse. He really needed some start-up capital, so he could only say with gratitude: "Grandma Sang, I will pay you back after I sell the herbs!"

"Brother Xu Shang, I'll go with you too!"

While he was talking, Jiang Xiaotiao also ran over with a plastic bag, which contained the windbreaks he had dug these days.

After seeing that Xu Shang was unwilling to sell Fangfeng to the grocery store, Jiang Xiaotiao decided not to sell it either. After seemingly gathering some information, he planned to go to the town with Xu Shang.

After they had the money, the two of them boarded the only tractor in the village that went to the town once a day. The ticket cost 2 yuan, and Jiang Xiaotiao paid for it in advance for Xu Shang. The tractor, emitting black smoke, drove to the town 20 miles away.

"Xiao Tiao, why do you want to go to town too?" Xu Shang asked curiously.

Jiang Xiaotiao glanced around, then whispered in Xu Shang's ear, "I asked around, and it seems that the town sells windproof for five yuan a pound. Even if I deduct the round-trip transportation fee, I can still make a few more yuan. Only a fool would sell it in Caicun!"

Xu Shang smiled. It seemed that Jiang Xiaotiao had also seen through the unscrupulous nature of the grocery store owner.

When Xu Shang went out, the program crew naturally followed behind him. The off-road vehicle swayed behind the tractor, which looked really anxious. After following all the way, the group finally arrived at the town.

Compared to Tianya Village, this town called Sanma Town is much more prosperous and lively. There is a market in the town at the end of the 1st, 4th and 7th day of the lunar calendar. The road is filled with small stalls of country folk, and there are many different kinds of shops on both sides.

Jiang Xiaotiao stood in front of a breakfast shop, looking at the steaming meat buns and swallowing his saliva. Then he walked into the shop next door that sold medicinal herbs, and ran to several shops in a row. Finally, he ran excitedly to Xu Shang and pointed at the shop he had just entered:

"Brother Xu Shang, I just asked which store is willing to buy these windproof products from me at the price of six yuan per pound!"

Xu Shang nodded secretly. Sure enough, the purchase price would be different in a larger place. Compared to Tianya Village, the purchase price had doubled.

But Xu Shang was still not satisfied with the price.

The price of wild fangfeng is 30 yuan per kilogram, which is 15 yuan per catty. The price of 6 yuan per catty is less than half of the average price. Moreover, the fangfeng collected by Jiang Xiaotiao is a bit dry, so the purchase price should be higher.

Xu Shang looked at the basket of medicine behind him and felt reluctant to sell it at this price. After thinking about it, Xu Shang made a bold decision.

"Xiaotiao, if you believe me, don't sell it for now."

Jiang Xiaotiao was eager to exchange the herbs in the bag for money, but after hearing what Xu Shang said, he thought about it seriously.

Finally, he decided to trust Xu Shang, because people in big cities must be more knowledgeable than himself, and it was because of Xu Shang that he did not sell the collected herbs in the village.

"Xiaotiao, you stay here and don't move. I'll be back soon."

As he spoke, Xu Shang walked in one direction. Jiang Xiaotiao hesitated for a moment and did not choose to listen to Xu Shang, but followed him.

The production crew was also very curious, and several directors followed behind with cameras.

Then, Jiang Xiaotiao and the program crew opened their mouths wide.

Because they Xu Shang walked closer to an Internet cafe.

"Xu Shang's internet addiction... is it so serious?" The photographer was stunned and turned to look at the director.

The director was also stunned. He had originally planned to directly shoot the content showing Xu Shang getting better and finish the filming of this episode early, but he never expected that Xu Shang would bring him such a great effect on the show.

In the Internet cafe, Xu Shangke, who had bought a computer with money, did not have so many thoughts. After all, for him in the future, computers were not just for entertainment, but more of a tool to make a living.

However, after opening the webpage, Xu Shang couldn't help but search for some news related to the show "Super Boy".

Then a piece of news popped up.

Xu Shang——the worst protagonist in the history of Metamorphosis!
