Chapter 178: Four-leaf Clover Fan
In Yu Jiang’s view, selling all 5 admission tickets for a big profit was just immediate benefit.
These teammates, gathered with great difficulty and reliable so far, were worth more.
Since choosing team mode for survival and enjoying team resources, they should consider team benefit.
It’s good now—whoever has time can go to the service area.
Sad Pig Intestine sent a hand-raising sticker pack, “I can process ingredients for everyone there.”
The service area inside is relatively safe; cooking parked on the road, he always worries something poisonous will suddenly jump out. Last time he saw a poison toad bigger than a head, which scared him into jumping up.
Purple Butt Can Do It will also go; he is responsible for calculating accounts and distributing supplies.
The last person—Yu Jiang asked in the team channel, “Anyone else?”
Good Times: “I went to the farm instance last time, not good to take another spot. If no one goes, I’ll raise my hand.”
Strawberry Candy: “Then I’ll go?”
She wanted to go from the start but was too shy to say it, afraid of being rejected.
Yu Jiang: “Okay, wait for me to send you the admission tickets.”
After handling team matters, Yu Jiang found a clean flower pot and planted the four-leaf clover in it.
It was indeed very tsundere; the opened leaves first turned toward Yu Jiang, then toward the blueberry and golden skin tree at the rear of the vehicle.
[Four Leaves: Hmph!]
The four leaves spun around, as if saying everyone present was trash.
[Furious Blueberry: Can I hit it?]
Yu Jiang: “No!”
She didn’t dare imagine that scene—one releasing a blueberry bomb, one blowing wind; the one suffering in the middle would only be her.
Yu Jiang moved the four-leaf clover to the cabinet opposite the small dining table and scanned with the light screen, “Do you have a skill?”
[Four Leaves: Hehe, please say, dear four-leaf clover blowing wind. 123 levels can be selected, just need to time the use of sunlight card; universal fertilizer is even better.]
Yu Jiang: Plants NPCs are all voice-activated?
“Blowing wind.” She tentatively spoke—no reaction. Yu Jiang was out of ideas and could only say the full activation phrase expressionlessly,
“Dear four-leaf clover, blowing wind, level 1.”
Yu Jiang hadn’t expected the little four-leaf clover to really just be a built-in cooling fan. It was cool, but after 5 minutes it drooped; tossing a sunlight card on it made it good again.
A green energy bar appeared on its head; when depleted, either spend resources to charge it or wait for it to rest and recover on its own.
Once collecting 2 fertilizer cards, see if it can level up.
Yu Jiang had the four-leaf clover stop blowing wind, turned around, and took out today’s lunch from the refrigerator.
A shower started again in the rainforest; the muggy environment would suppress appetite, and driving the go-kart in the morning had consumed too much stamina—needed to pay more attention to physical condition.
Yu Jiang’s chosen lunch was shredded chicken cold mixed noodles, stir-fried mushrooms, winter melon soup.
The mushrooms bought from a player before, minus the processing fee portion, could serve as side dish for two meals.
Sad Pig Intestine’s processed food, she would pack, categorize, and neatly put into time stasis grids; when eating, portion out one meal’s amount.
How many supplies left in hand was clear at a glance; half a month plus since last getting a large batch of supplies from the farm, staple food still ample, ingredients consumed quite a bit.
Even with plenty of supplies, didn’t dare use without planning—who knows if next resupply can be obtained.
Fresh meat and vegetables stock, plus those beverages and fruit providing emotional value—when one-third left, she would reduce usage; having surplus grain in hand gives a sense of security.
Thinking of this, Yu Jiang found the little girl picking mushrooms again and traded some edible mushrooms with her using a mosquito net.
Wild mushrooms are truly delicious, but after stir-frying or boiling they shrink, not much portion.
Regular players make them into mushroom sauce, add a bit on staple food to improve taste; can preserve without time stasis grid too. Eating compressed biscuits and tasteless homemade dry rations daily, occasional improvement gives something to look forward to in life.
Yu Jiang hadn’t finished her lunch when the merchant caravan’s reply came; for convenient communication, she directly formed a team, pulled in Purple Butt Can Do It and Wholesale King Wang Defa, and opened voice chat.
“Big Shot, with our friendship along the way, you taking 1% of revenue—can we negotiate that further?” Wholesale King Wang Defa laughed.
She had already heard about the farm’s functions from Purple Butt Can Do It—must buy admission tickets!
All entered, merchant caravan definitely wants to get as many supplies as possible, or it’ll lose; admission tickets aren’t cheap.
Doing business, of course try to negotiate; Wholesale King Wang Defa also wanted to fight for merchant caravan benefit.
“Sister Fugui, if not for our friendship along the way, I’d open with 2%.”
Yu Jiang picked up her stainless steel lunchbox and walked to the kitchen, then took out the jar of plant ash from the cabinet, using plant ash to wash dishes.
This can remove oil stains, pretty useful.
She had plenty of wood in hand, no shortage of plant ash; still used sparingly each time. Yu Jiang wouldn’t specially burn plant ash just for washing dishes—these were leftovers from previous fires, all about making full use of things.
Opposite, Wholesale King Wang Defa pondered a moment, “Alright, 1% it is!”
Farm service area admission tickets are good stuff; heard total only 5, big shot giving merchant caravan 2 is already great.
Of course not purely due to friendship, but needing long-term cooperation with merchant caravan—both sides knew this well.
“20 titanium alloys, 20 high-strength carbon fibers, 10 high-strength fiberglass—is that the admission ticket price, right?” Wholesale King Wang Defa confirmed with Yu Jiang again.
Yu Jiang replied, “Yeah, no rush to give all today; send when you receive them is fine.”
“Thanks, I’ll send what I have first.” Wholesale King Wang Defa said and directly initiated the gift.
These things are rare resources for the merchant caravan too, not easy to gather in a short time.
Big shot letting them owe first—where to find a second such partner!
Yu Jiang looked at the materials received, feeling closer to level 6 vehicle.
Afternoon 2 o’clock.
Yu Jiang drove to the farm service area, rainforest section.
Still as always full of primitive atmosphere.
Just one thatched hut, service area self-service sales system hanging in mid-air.
[Welcome player to service area. In the next 12 hours, you have absolute usage rights to this service area (destroying infrastructure will get you blacklisted oh!)
You can operate the service area light screen to issue admission tickets, open/close service area planting garden and breeding shed; subpar fruits and vegetables you can discount process yourself.
Wish you pleasant service area experience, please strictly comply with farm usage rights related rules.]
Such a good deal! She decides the discount herself, then buys herself.
Yu Jiang picked up the apron printed with service area logo from the table, put it on in a few moves, eyes determined.
She will definitely do well, comply with rules; that tree behind seems like soapberry tree—picking some soapberries doesn’t count as destroying infrastructure, right?
