Upon arriving at the location, Sang Luoluo quickly packed up piles of waste, which contained meteorites of various sizes. This trip yielded quite a few meteorites containing energy. After storing them in her spatial storage, she immediately unlocked 10 acres of pumpkins.
Sang Luoluo was in a good mood. Of the more than 100 acres of land she had unlocked last time, there were more than 80 acres of grapefruit, including more than a dozen varieties, which were even sweeter after being grown in the space. There were also 20 acres of watermelons. These were all high-yield crops that sold very well during the holidays. She used to like eating them, so she planted a lot of them.
The extra 10 mu of pumpkins, which had just been harvested, were almost ripe, but Sang Luoluo decided to wait a few more days before harvesting them.
I'm in a great mood.
Yan Lang, standing nearby, was trying to ingratiate himself with Sang Luoluo. Sang Luoluo looked thin and small, but her evolutionary abilities were strong, especially during missions. Having her along saved the team a lot of trouble. " Sang Luoluo, we've been working together quite a bit lately."
"Okay, sure."
Yan Lang gripped the steering wheel with one hand, driving incredibly fast. He took a packet of coffee powder from his bag, opened his thermos, and asked Sang Luoluo to put it inside.
"No problem." Sang Luoluo tore open the packaging, poured the contents into a thermos, put the lid on, shook it, and handed it to him.
Yan Lang opened the lid, took a sip, and boasted, "This is called coffee powder. My aunt brought it for me from Base 109 in the south. This stuff can refresh and invigorate me; a cup of coffee can keep me energetic all day."
Sang Luoluo listened to his boastful tone. "..."
"If you join my team later, I can give you some too," Yan Lang said with a smile.
Hearing the boastfulness in his tone, Sang Luoluo understood why Lei Qi had such a bad opinion of him behind his back. It wasn't just because of his office mannerisms; his deliberately boastful attitude was equally annoying. Sang Luoluo smiled and decided not to indulge him.
"Oh, I've had it."
Yan Lang suddenly slammed on the brakes, Sang Luoluo, who wasn't wearing a seatbelt, nearly hit the windshield. Seeing this, she quickly fastened her seatbelt. "This stuff isn't produced at our Base 71. If you want some, you have to get it from outside the base."
Sang Luoluo smiled at him and said, "No, it's sold on the black market. I drank some one night and was so energetic I couldn't sleep all night."
At this point, Sang Luoluo felt a little sleepy. She reached for a steaming cup of hazelnut latte, and the aroma of hazelnuts immediately filled the car. Sang Luoluo the lid and sipped it slowly. She hadn't had time to drink coffee since arriving here.
The aroma of coffee made Yan Lang suddenly feel that his thermos was particularly offensive. The difference in smell was immediately apparent, and his earlier boasting felt like a slap in the face.
But Sang Luoluo looked at him with an innocent smile, "Captain Yan, I still have some here, would you like to try my coffee?"
Seeing that the genuine Sang Luoluo had conjured up a steaming cup of coffee out of thin air, Yan Lang suddenly felt embarrassed and gritted his teeth, saying, "No need. I have some."
"Oh," Sang Luoluo responded indifferently and put the item away.
Seeing that Sang Luoluo decisively took it back, Yan Lang immediately regretted his earlier refusal. The fragrance lingered in his nose for a long time, and he hadn't even asked her again. Shouldn't one be polite when offering someone a drink?
Sang Luoluo had no idea he was having so much internal monologue. She only felt that in the time it takes to drink a cup of coffee, they had already arrived at an open space outside the base. Sang Luoluo disposed of all the waste as required, then got in the car and went back to continue the next trip.
After a morning, Sang Luoluo successfully harvested another ten mu of mulberries and thirty mu of rice.
She desperately wanted to keep working without resting.
But Young Master Yan needed to rest. Time was tight and the task was heavy. It wouldn't stop Young Master Yan from Young Master Yan something delicious. He had dried earthworms and strawberry-flavored nutritional supplement. Sang Luoluo didn't want to upset him, so she got out of the car, went to the side, drank a bowl of chicken soup, and ate some vegetables. After finishing, she cleaned up and sat in the passenger seat to wait.
The chicken soup was a bit greasy, Sang Luoluo was quite bored sitting in the car. Thinking of the pomelo she had just unlocked, Sang Luoluo used her consciousness to pick one, which was bigger than a basketball.
As soon as Yan Lang got into the car after finishing his meal, he saw the pomelo that Sang Luoluo was holding. Although he had never eaten it before, he had seen it online. It was very expensive and hard to buy. Not only was the price ridiculously high, but it was also very rare and impossible to find.
As Sang Luoluo used a fruit knife to make a few cuts along the peel, she put the knife away. A sweet aroma of pomelo wafted out, making him swallow hard.
Yan Lang drove back from outside the base with a dark expression. Sang Luoluo liked peeling pomelos. She deftly split the peel in half, took out the pulp, and slowly peeled it in half. After peeling the first one, she couldn't help but put it in her mouth. The familiar pomelo taste was so sweet and refreshing.
Yan Lang stared at the pomelo in Sang Luoluo's hand. She hadn't asked him if he wanted a taste the whole way. Seeing his gaze on the pomelo, Sang Luoluo broke off a small piece, about the size of a fingernail, from the peeled pomelo and handed it to him, smiling, "I forgot, Captain Yan, you should try it."
This time, Yan Lang didn't refuse. He took it and put it in his mouth. The Qingtian aroma made him want to eat more. He had never eaten such delicious fruit in his life. It was clear that the high price was justified.
Sang Luoluo saw him looking over, smiled, and said, "No, that's all. This stuff is quite expensive; I spent a lot of money to get it. What I treated you to earlier was already quite a lot."
Yan Lang scoffed. She was just lucky to have found this on the black market. His Yan Family family was wealthy; they'd seen all sorts of good things. He said, "Name your price. Sell me all of these pomelos."
Sang Luoluo: "???"
Sang Luoluo asked, "Are you sure you want to buy it? This morning, Captain Sheng Feng bought two 500ml bottles of milk from me and paid me 1000 contribution points. And what about these pomelos...?"
Yan Lang, of course, knew the current prices of these things and wasn't worried about the cost, so he said, "I'll give you three thousand contribution points."
Taking advantage of the situation, Sang Luoluo raised the price. "A fixed price of 6,000. This one weighs six jin. It's normal for fruit prices to be high."
Yan Lang gritted his teeth. "Okay."
Sang Luoluo handed over the pomelo, completely unconcerned, as she had already eaten two pieces.
Yan Lang's account somehow received an extra contribution point, totaling 7912 contribution points.
At this rate, I'll soon have over 10,000 points, which will cover the cost of those two sets of anti-radiation suits. I can also use the extra contribution points to exchange for other things.
Sang Luoluo remained energetic throughout the afternoon and worked overtime until 11 p. m. She didn't even want to leave work. By the end of the day, she had cleared out the entire street. Based on her contribution points, she had earned 789 points today. In addition, the most rewarding thing was that she unlocked many more places in her space.
The vegetable section has been expanded to include many areas: ten acres of chives, ten acres of loofah, ten acres of eggplant, ten acres of cilantro, thirty acres of cucumbers (including several varieties), ten acres of celery, ten acres of spinach, ten acres of cherry radishes, ten acres of green radishes, and ten acres of lettuce.
This is just the amount for one day.
She was so excited, but there was no one to share her joy with.
They flew to meet up with Sang Yunpu and went back to rest that night. In an open space, they set up a tent. Since they were happy that day, the two of them set up a small table inside the tent, with some roasted lamb chops, a vegetable salad, mineral water, and a large pomelo.
"What is this?" Sang Yunpu, who had never eaten a pomelo before, asked with genuine curiosity.
Chapter 67: A Suggestion. He was the one sent by his superiors to accompany...
"Grapefruit."
After Sang Luoluo peeled the pomelo and stuffed a piece of fruit into Sang Yunpu's mouth, Sang Yunpu dilated with delight at the taste.
"Delicious." Sang Yunpu ate a few more pieces, then, thinking that the aroma of the pomelo might be smelled by people nearby, he quickly turned on the small range hood.
After the two finished eating and cleaned up, Sang Yunpu, who had been eating normal food for several days, found the nutrient solution hard to swallow and suddenly understood the look of disgust Sang Luoluo had given him earlier.
It's true what they say: it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but hard to go back.
After a long day of work, Sang Luoluo was exhausted but excited about unlocking so many things in the space that day, making it hard for her to fall asleep. Sang Yunpu was already asleep next to her.
She heard a commotion outside. There were too many people gathered here, so there was noise all day long. Sang Luoluo sat up and glanced outside. What she saw was alarming. She accidentally saw people exchanging food. Points were useless now; even if she earned them, she couldn't spend them. Besides, although contribution points could also be exchanged for supplies at the base, they were ultimately not as good as food.
The man then took out a green Crystal Core, about half the size of a fingernail, and handed it over. The other party smiled with satisfaction; it was clear that the Crystal Core had excellent circulation.
Have we already reached the point where we're exchanging Crystal Core for food?
Sang Luoluo remembered that Crystal Core were very hard to find. Such a small amount of Crystal Core should have been enough to exchange for a lot of supplies before the meteor shower. It would have been enough to live in a house in a larger inner city. But now, one Crystal Core was only exchanged for a bag of food. Sang Luoluo estimated that there were more than a dozen bags of nutrient solution, some dried meat, and other food in it.
After exchanging the food, the man quietly left.
Sang Luoluo pretended not to see and went back to lie down. Now she could find quite a few energy stones by transporting waste every day. She could also collect the meteorites that others outside the base were transporting into her space and process them when she had time. Those were also energy.
