The shopkeeper looked her up and down, then waved her away, saying, "Go away, go away, I'm not selling."

Shi Jinwei had anticipated this.

She was dressed neatly and cleanly, and didn't look like a farmer, so it's understandable that the boss didn't dare to sell to her.

In reality, there are quite a few people who commit suicide by buying pesticides.

After that, people became extremely cautious about buying and selling pesticides.

She gave him the explanation she had prepared: "Uncle, if I really couldn't figure this out, I would have just asked you if you had any paraquat. My grandma told me to come and ask about pesticides."

The owner still didn't believe him: "What kind of bugs have infested your vegetables?"

At this point, Jinwei couldn't say anything, only saying that there were many ants in the ground.

I was successfully kicked out by the boss.

This is the first time I've heard of crops being attacked by ants; even the boss is speechless at this reason.

If this path doesn't work, then let's try another one.

I turned around and went to the flower and plant market.

The shop owner here is easier to talk to than the owner of the pesticide shop.

I gave her a small bottle of imidacloprid with a smile, saying it would be very useful.

When Shi Jinwei asked if she could buy a few more bottles, the shopkeeper's expression changed and he began to scrutinize her.

She could only buy a few small bottles from several different stores.

Then I took out my phone and searched online, and found that I could shop online, so I didn't linger any longer.

I checked the time and realized it was almost noon, so I found a fast food restaurant to eat at.

Since I have a lot of money now, buying fast food is easier than cooking for myself.

I packed a few more fast food meals to go before leaving.

She plans to rent a car before making the remaining purchases.

But you need to rent a place before that.

As before, I chose a neighborhood with fewer people.

This time it wasn't a natural disaster, and she didn't have any specific target in mind.

In the end, I simply chose a newly developed high-end residential complex.

The city center location offers advantages such as convenient transportation and a high-end residential complex with one elevator per unit.

The downside was that it cost her 10000 coins in 30 days.

Even without getting any freebies, this money still feels like a painful expense.

After renting the house, I searched for the nearest car rental company on my phone.

She spent 2000 dollars to rent the cheapest minivan and started driving around the city hoarding gasoline and fast food.

Now that she has plenty of money, she buys a wider variety of things.

By nightfall, we had stockpiled about 400 liters of gasoline.

More than 50 fast food meals were also packed up.

Total daily expenses: 23487 coins.

Remaining: 474993 coins.

Based on past experience, the disaster won't happen immediately after a 30-day dungeon run.

Shi Jinwei wasn't in a hurry to finish everything in one day.

I haven't bought the remaining medicine; I plan to go again tomorrow.

After getting home and eating, I started ordering pesticides online.

However, she lacked knowledge in this area and ended up buying several insecticides based on customer service recommendations.

I bought some more insecticide.

Spend another 1000 coins.

Before going to bed, I looked up some information about Anqing City and ants.

First is Anqing City.

The best time to visit is late spring or early summer, when the weather is pleasant.

Apart from that, it's just a medium-sized city with nothing particularly special about it.

Next up is something related to ants.

Just like encyclopedias in real society, this insect can be found almost everywhere except in extremely cold regions.

There are more than 14000 varieties.

There are many kinds of ants that can cause harm to humans.

Spring and summer are their breeding seasons, and they prefer warm and humid soil.

And here's a little-known fact: it can survive in water for about two weeks.

……

After reviewing all the materials, I didn't find much useful information.

The task is described as an ant infestation, and the only possibilities that come to mind are either invasive species or species mutation.

The system also gave an extra 1000 points as a reward for the task.

This only shows that the task will be more difficult than expected.

But it's impossible for her to easily give up those 1000 points.

After mentally planning the medicines she needed to buy the next day, Shi Jinwei turned on the light and went to sleep.

The next morning, she sprinkled the insect repellent powder she had bought in the corners and dark, damp places of her home before going out.

In addition to buying common medicines such as cold medicine, fever reducer, and pain reliever at the pharmacy, I also bought more than ten tubes of ointment.

They were all applied after being bitten by insects.

Just as I was about to pay the bill, a young mother walked in through the door.

She was holding a three- or four-year-old baby in her arms.

The little girl hugged her chubby little arms, her eyes brimming with tears, looking like she was about to cry.

The young mother looked somewhat nervous.

Finding that there was only one cashier in the store to check out Shi Jinwei, and disregarding the issue of cutting in line, she anxiously asked, "Excuse me, my daughter was bitten on the arm by an insect. Is there any medicine that would help?"

As she spoke, she lifted the baby's little arm.

Her tender, white arms, like lotus roots, were now covered in red swelling.

Seeing this, Shi Jinwei gestured for the cashier to find the child's medicine first, and she could wait a while.

While the cashier went to get the medicine, the young mother kept thanking Shi Jinwei.

Holding her child, she sighed, "Only after becoming a mother do you realize how difficult it is to take care of a child. If you're not careful, the child can bump into something and get hurt. Just now, I took her for a walk in the park, and she got bitten by a bug..."

"Are you sure it wasn't a mosquito bite?" the pharmacy saleswoman asked, coming over with two bottles of ointment.

"No, it was an ant. I saw it crawling on my daughter's arm," the young mother affirmed.

Upon hearing this, Shi Jinwei's heart stirred, and she came over to chime in, "Is it a big black ant? I remember small ants don't bite."

"I don't know what breed it is, but it is definitely bigger than usual."

The young mother had a very good impression of Shi Jinwei.

When Shi Jinwei asked, he thought about it seriously and gestured a distance with his hand.

According to her gestures, it was much larger than a large black ant.

The shop assistant gently applied the ointment to the little girl's arm.

She was obedient and didn't struggle at all; she was both pitiful and adorable.

"She's so cute, and so well-behaved," the shop assistant couldn't help but praise.

Seeing that her daughter's expression had softened considerably, the young mother felt relieved and slowly smiled.

They chatted for a few more minutes before leaving with their daughter.

Shi Jinwei then paid the bill and left the pharmacy before going to the park where the little girl had been bitten.

It wasn't the weekend, so there weren't many people here.

Aside from a few elderly men and women exercising and chatting inside, there were also a few young mothers walking their children.

The young children were being mischievous, making a racket in the park.

Shi Jinwei dodged the dolls' rampage and squatted down to start looking for ants.

I spotted a very ordinary little ant, carrying food and huffing and puffing as it made its way back to its nest.

A little child saw her squatting there and curiously stood still.

Following Shi Jinwei's gaze, she saw the ants and immediately exclaimed, "Wow! They're bugs!"

The noise was a bit loud, attracting not only his mother but also other children.

Then the little ant was successfully stepped on by a child.

Shi Jinwei: "..."

Unable to argue with the children, she could only get up and move away from them.
