44. Chapter 44 Bounty

Author: fried fermented bean curd

"What kind of low-lying land?"

Jiang Ran wasn't sure if this was the plant she knew called Dishuogen.

The rhizome of this thing is very similar to the rhizome of a plant called rhizome.

However, the rhizomes of Dishuogen can quickly heal traumatic wounds, and the effect is dozens or hundreds of times that of a certain Nanbaiyao.

The rhizome of the white rhizome is highly poisonous. If a large amount is accidentally eaten, even a person with strong abilities will die within three hours.

Seeing that the girl who asked seemed to understand quite well, the stall owner carefully recalled: "It seems to be a swamp. The leaves of this plant are light yellow oval, about the size of a palm."

"oh."

After hearing the stall owner's inquiry, Jiang Ran was basically sure that this was a white raspberry leaf. It was of no use and she didn't make poison.

Seeing that the customer suddenly lost interest, the stall owner hurriedly said: "How about it? If you like it, I'll give you 50 points."

Jiang Ran smiled and said, "No need, you can keep it for yourself."

"Hey, wait."

The stall owner hurriedly persuaded him to stay. He had been setting up his stall here for so long, and this was the first time someone took the initiative to ask, and it seemed that the girl knew what it was.

Jiang Ran turned around and looked at the stall owner, "I don't buy this thing."

"Let's talk some more." The stall owner hurriedly called the person back and said with a smile: "Do you know what this is?"

"have no idea."

Jiang Ran shook his head decisively, turned around and continued walking forward, searching the things and items on the stall one by one.

"Well……"

Looking at Jiang Ran walking away, the stall owner said nothing. He didn't want to be exposed, so it was useless to ask more questions.

After wandering around for more than an hour, she still found nothing, so Jiang Ran gave up the idea and decided to practice hard. There were so many mistakes for her to pick up.

With such high temperatures, neither plants nor animals can survive.

Even if there were good things, they would probably be in uninhabited mountains and old forests. The current situation is not suitable for traveling far.

In the days that followed, Jiang Ran lived a regular life, practicing 24 hours a day and 15 hours a day.

I still find time to go to the Wutong warehouse every few days, but I never gain much.

this day.

As usual, Jiang Ran went to the basement to enjoy the cool air after eating breakfast.

There were suddenly a lot more vendors setting up stalls in the past two days, and the basement seemed more lively, but they were all selling points, and the vendors selling food in exchange for points suddenly disappeared.

Jiang Ran catches up on sleep (cultivates) every day, while others chat and gossip.

"Hey, haven't we seen that little girl for two days?"

The person next to him looked at the old man who was coaxing the child and whispered: "Sell it. I saw it with my own eyes yesterday. She sold that girl to Mrs. Wang in the next neighborhood."

"What?"

"That Mrs. Wang is someone who specializes in serving underground nightclubs."

Everyone was surprised.

"It's so cruel. The little girl doesn't know how much torture she has to endure."

After hearing the conversation of several people, the people on the side sighed: "Life is not easy."

"Since those outsiders entered the city, prices in the safe zone have skyrocketed. The prices of food, water and electricity have all increased. As a result, wages have become lower and lower."

"Half a month ago, 1 point could be exchanged for a pound of white rice at the official store, and later it increased to 2 points per pound. Yesterday I went to buy rice, and a pound of white rice actually cost 4 points."

"Oh my God, so high?"

"It doesn't matter if water and electricity prices increase. The worst thing we can do is use less. But if food cannot increase, people will starve to death."

"you do not say."

"No, I have to buy more food at night and store it at home. If the price continues to rise like this, I will really starve to death."

The more everyone talked, the more panicked they felt. With the protection of the safe zone, although life was difficult, it was still relatively stable.

With the increase in population and food spoilage caused by high temperatures, the safety zone is under increasing pressure.

It was only a matter of time before supplies became scarce, but Jiang Ran didn't expect it to happen so soon.

After that, the situation became more serious. During the day, there was a lot of wailing in the basement, and some people even asked Jiang Ran about it.

"Jiang Ran, do you have a lot of food? I want to use my points to buy some from you."

Jiang Ran knew this woman. She was a tenant on the fifth floor and her husband was on the street safety committee.

Jiang Ran asked: "Isn't there a store specifically selling food in the safety zone? Why don't you go there?"

The woman shook her head, "The store has limited purchases, and most of the materials released are purchased by insiders, so they are impossible to grab."

The person next to me interjected: "The price increased again yesterday, 5 points per kilogram of rice. On the black market, it is doubled to 10 points per kilogram of rice."

I glanced at the people around me, they were all paying attention here, their eyes were full of expectation and greed, and they were about to swarm us.

Withdrawing his gaze and looking at the sad-looking woman in front of him, Jiang Ran shook his head and refused, "Sorry, I don't have much food."

"well."

The woman left in frustration, and the others looked away regretfully.

noon.

Jiang Ran only ate a bowl of gruel. At this time, many people refused to eat. If she ate too well, she would become a thorn in others' eyes.

Seeing that Jiang Ran only had a cup of gruel, everyone felt a lot more balanced.

At this time, Tian Ren came over, leaned close to Jiang Ran and whispered: "Sister Ran, there is an opportunity to earn supplies, do you want to go?"

"what chance?"

Jiang Ran was a little curious. With supplies so scarce now, the safety zone officials should be busy negotiating with the rich.

After all, they have a lot of supplies in hand. Before the temperature drops, this is the only source of getting supplies quickly and in large quantities.

Looking at everyone, Tian Ren whispered: "The news I got is that a certain rich man who supplies water to the base has his private farmland invaded by evolved creatures.

Now he is offering a reward. As long as he can kill the evolved creature, he will give him 100 kilograms of food and 10,000 points."

Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows, "For such a high price, that thing should be difficult to deal with. I'm afraid it will never come back. Do you have a picture of that evolved creature?"

Until she was reborn, the safe zone of the provincial capital existed. This kind of invading evolutionary creature should only be making a small fuss, but I don't know if the army will enter?

"some."

Tian Ren took out his mobile phone from his pocket and flipped through a few pictures in the photo album.

On the screen was a bug about the size of a one- or two-month-old puppy. It was lying on the black soil and eating the green leaves. It looked a bit like an enlarged pig bug.

Jiang Ran instantly lost interest when she saw the bug. She was not short of supplies, so why take the risk?

Tian Ren wanted to earn referral fees, so he flipped through the other pictures and said, "Sister Ran, do you want to take on this task? Be careful, it should be fine for you."

hehe.

If there is no profit, you can’t afford to go early.

"etc."

Just when Jiang Ran was about to refuse, he suddenly noticed a group of fluorescent lights flashing in the corner of the last picture.

"This is……"

She grabbed the phone and zoomed in on the fluorescent spot. It was a group of fluorescent bugs.

Fluorite.

It turned out to be a fluorite.
