"With the current radiation pollution, usable resources are too scarce. The ingredients for these basic potions are almost all barely meeting the standard. Their effect is far inferior to the potions from before the nuclear pollution when resources were abundant. I think a bottle like this has significant collection value!"
The man pointed at the potion the woman had taken out and introduced it to the drone with great enthusiasm, spitting as he spoke. When he finished, the woman beside him added.
"The materials for these two potions are very pure. Since they don't contain any radiation-contaminated ingredients, taking the potions themselves has no side effects. There won't be any body deformities or ulcerations, and the medicinal effect is gentle, causing no damage to the body. They are perfectly crafted versions."
After the woman finished adding to the man's words, she returned to her timid state, shrinking back behind him.
"..."
The man and woman, eager to showcase their spoils, had no idea how much of a surprise their words had brought to Li Yang.
Genetic Potion
Body Correction Potion, can fix 99% of defects with no side effects.
Nerve Reaction Potion Number Three, reaction speed increased by 30%
Gentle medicinal effect, causes no damage to the body
In the gold shop, sitting on a chair and watching the video feed on the screen, Li Yang listened to the man and woman describe the two small bottles of potion with a face full of astonishment. His mind was filled with exclamations.
How does this sound so sci-fi? Is the biotechnology in this world so advanced that they can even create something like this?
How did they do it?
This guy isn't trying to fool me, is he?
With a storm raging in his heart, Li Yang stared intently at the two tubes of potion. He knew the probability of the other party lying to him was extremely low.
Even if they were lying, at most these two tubes of potion would be fake. The information they spoke wouldn't be false.
After all, they didn't know he wasn't from this world. Assuming they all had the same information sources and worldview, it was impossible for them to fabricate widely known information.
So... this world really had such miraculous things.
I've struck it rich.
Li Yang thought to himself, then immediately remembered the time mentioned by the other party, and a hint of a strange expression flashed across his face – this world had been in the apocalypse for fifteen years already, which meant it was 2086...
His thoughts quickly turned, and Li Yang looked at the two people standing on the rooftop in the screen, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.
Things like this seemed to not be very valuable in this world, otherwise, the other party wouldn't be trading them so casually.
If that's the case... I have to get them over here and take a look!
After thinking for a moment, Li Yang unilaterally muted his side, took several deep breaths to maintain his composure, and finally opened the microphone.
"They look pretty good. So, what do you want to exchange them for?"
Li Yang spoke slowly in a tone that showed some interest, but not much, his gaze fixed on the other party's expression through the screen.
"No need for a face-to-face trade. I have a few small items here. If you're willing, we can trade via drone."
Li Yang said casually, but his heart was pounding.
On the rooftop, hearing the sound from the drone's speaker, the man's fawning, submissive smile became even more pronounced.
"We don't have anything specific we particularly want. If you think it's appropriate, why don't you tell us what you're willing to exchange, and we can make a decision."
What to exchange?
Li Yang looked at the two people in the video frame and couldn't help but frown. He subconsciously thought of the one hundred and twenty desks and a pile of miscellaneous items he had just moved back to the civilian house from this building, then shook his head.
Although intuition told him those things were definitely good things, the problem was... he didn't even know what they were called, so how could he trade?
In that case, what could he use to trade with them?
Li Yang rubbed his temples. The only thing he could think of seemed to be food.
The Ruler uses iron pots to cook food with low contamination.
In this world, is uncontaminated food perhaps very precious?
Li Yang thought for a moment and decided to probe.
But if it was very precious... what quantity should he set?
"Since they are small collectibles you don't need, there's no need for a big fuss. I have three boxes of uncontaminated canned food here, absolutely zero pollution. I wonder if you're interested."
Food from Earth should be pure food for them, right?
Li Yang controlled his voice, speaking unhurriedly, his eyes closely observing the two people's movements.
"Canned food, oh, then this..."
Hearing Li Yang's words, the man in the video first responded subconsciously, then suddenly froze, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes: "You, what did you say?"
He said too much...
Li Yang keenly noticed that not only the man but also the woman beside him had an astonished look, and he felt greatly disappointed.
But fortunately, there was still a chance to salvage the situation.
"One box of uncontaminated canned food, zero pollution, trade or not?"
Li Yang's voice was calm.
You asked for this yourself.
"Untainted canned food!"
A look of disbelief flashed across the man's face, quickly replaced by eagerness and a look like he was about to cry. "Big Brother, wasn't it three boxes just now? How did it suddenly become one box?"
"There is only one box. Whether you trade or not is up to you."
Li Yang's expression didn't change, but he kept an eye on the actions of the man and woman on the screen.
"Trade, we'll trade!"
Hearing this, the man and woman both excitedly clenched their fists. Li Yang suddenly felt like they thought they had made a huge profit...
Forget it, he had already kept the quantity of this stuff to the absolute minimum. One box was fine.
"But Big Brother, can we first inspect the residue of that item? If it's really as you say, it won't be too late to make the exchange. Please forgive us, as Evolvers struggling at the bottom, we haven't seen such good stuff. This was something we worked hard to find in the laboratory, so we don't dare to believe it so easily."
After agreeing to the trade, the man cautiously spoke to the drone's camera again. Li Yang clearly saw his expression through the screen.
"Wait."
Li Yang said, then flickered out of the Apocalyptic World and into a civilian house in the suburbs of Heyang City in the Real World.
He quickly walked to a table by the living room in the house, took out a hiking backpack he had brought, retrieved a box of beef jerky from it, and also took out an empty plastic container with nothing printed on it.
He opened the can with the steel stamp, poured all the contents into the plastic container, and then used a small plastic bag to pack a little bit of the residue from the metal box. Li Yang then retrieved a second drone before returning to the Apocalyptic World with the box of jerky and the residue in the plastic bag.
He tied the small plastic bag of residue to the second drone, and following the same method, controlled it to ascend and fly towards the location of the man and woman.
"The residue has been sent. Receive it quickly."
Li Yang spoke calmly into the remote control for the first drone. The man in the video nodded repeatedly and raised his hands to untie the plastic bag from the drone flying overhead. Immediately, the woman beside him took out a scanner and scanned the residue.
Li Yang clearly saw the scanner activate, with some unfamiliar symbols lighting up on it, but the index remained at 0.
The man and woman looked at each other, shocked and delighted.
