I became a farmer in the apocalypse.

Jiang Li was stroking the piglet when she suddenly heard someone shout:

Is anyone there?

Someone's here.

Jiang Tang looked and realized it was the aunt next door, Li Lan.

When Li Lan came in and saw Jiang Tang, she couldn't help but smile. This beauty was pleasing to the eye, and it made her feel better.

The two girls from the Jiang family are both incredibly beautiful, each with their own unique style.

"Aunt Li," Jiang Tang greeted with a smile.

Li Lan: "I heard you sell rice here, is that right?"

She went up to the stall and exclaimed, "Oh! They even have soy milk? Only 10 points a cup?"

"Hmm, want a drink?"

Li Lan nodded. "One cup, no, four cups! There are four of us in my family, and we haven't had soy milk in a long time. It's mainly because the soybeans haven't been grown yet, otherwise we would have ground it ourselves."

"Okay, I'll grind it for you fresh."

Li Lan: "Let me check the rice first."

My gaze fell on the two bags of rice, and I immediately noticed that this rice was much thicker and longer than ordinary rice! Each grain was distinct, and the aroma of rice was very strong.

"What kind of rice is this? I've never seen it before, but it looks delicious."

Jiang Tang: "Xiao Li grows her own high-quality rice. You'll know once you've eaten the potatoes she grows. Everything she grows always looks different from the rest."

Li Lan smiled and said, "Of course."

I've heard that wood-type superpowers can nourish plants, and the things grown from them will be of very high quality.

"Then I've made a profit! I bought better rice with the same number of points."

Jiang Tang asked her, "How many do you want to buy?"

"20 jin (240 catties)"

Jiang Li asked Li Lan to go to the store to get it from Jiang Li.

Li Lan arrived at the shop, had Jiang Li weigh 20 jin of coarse rice, paid 1000 points, carried the rice bag back to the stall, took the four cups of soy milk that Jiang Tang had packed, paid 40 points, and left happily.

"It's so convenient that there are rice vendors nearby; I don't have to go all the way to the grain depot in the safe zone," Li Lan said happily.

If Jiang Li could keep selling rice, that would be great. This staple food needs to be replenished every month. In the future, she could just walk a few steps to buy rice and wouldn't have to fight tooth and nail with those people in the safe zone. It would be so convenient.

Congratulations! Your agricultural product store has opened, and you've sold rice! Food is the most important thing for people, and grain is the cornerstone of happiness! You're selling rice, so you're creating happiness! Please work hard to run your agricultural product store well and sell even more grain!

[Reward: 1 Gold Coin]

Jiang Li: "?"

What are you babbling about? Anyway, it's always good to earn some coins.

Jiang Li took out the money bag and looked at it.

Sure enough, there was an extra, shiny gold coin inside.

Similar to the beverage stalls, the agricultural product shops have also been redesigned into a separate business category.

[Agricultural Products Shop: Lv1 (Upgrade requires 100000 Sales Value)]

Current turnover: 1000

Today's task: Earn 10000 points (1000/10000) by selling agricultural products. Completing the task will reward you with 5 gold coins.

You currently have two gold coins. Completing the [Drinks Stall] task will earn you 5 gold coins, and completing the [Agricultural Products Shop] task will earn you an additional 5 gold coins.

That adds up to 10 gold coins, which will cover the cost of buying the sapling today!

Jiang Li could almost see the cherry tree, laden with blossoms, waving at her!

"..."

"Go to Jiang Li's place and buy 20 jin of rice. We're almost out of rice at home."

Su's mother transferred 1000 points to Su Xiao.

Su Xiao was just looking forward to checking out Jiang Li's farm, so after collecting the points, she immediately headed there.

The farm gate was open.

Once inside, I saw that potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, eggplants, Chinese cabbage, and freshly harvested rice were growing there.

How many good things has Jiang Li planted? The seeds alone must have cost a lot!

Pumpkins too?

This is yet another special crop that mutates 100% before it even bears fruit, yet Jiang Li is planting it. Is this pumpkin definitely not mutated? Is it really edible?

"Are you here to buy rice too?" Jiang Tang called out to a figure walking directly into the pumpkin patch, "What are you doing there? There are things growing there, you can't just step on them."

Su Xiao stopped and turned around, meeting Jiang Tang's gaze.

At first, Jiang Tang couldn't see who it was, but after recognizing Su Xiao, she frowned. "Why is it you?"

Isn't this the woman who started the trouble when we were selling potatoes?

She remembered that Su Xiao was particularly disrespectful, spoke very rudely, and even led the way in stirring up conflict between the people in the field and Xiao Li.

Jiang Tang had absolutely no liking for her.

"My daughter, Xiao Li, said she doesn't want to have anything to do with your Su family. What are you doing here?"

Su Xiao replied matter-of-factly, "What else could I be here for? To buy rice, of course!"

Jiang Tang: "Then you can leave. I'm not selling it to you."

Su Xiao stiffened, her face instantly turning ugly. "Fine, don't sell then! So what! It's not like you're the only place that sells rice!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

After leaving Jiang Li's farm, Su Xiao saw several people coming this way.

"Su Xiao, are you here to buy rice too?"

It seems everyone is here to buy rice.

Su Xiao remained silent.

Seeing that Su Xiao came out empty-handed, those people immediately guessed what he had written. "Jiang Li probably didn't sell it to you, right?"

Su Xiao's face darkened.

Judging from her expression, those people knew it was true.

They all bypassed Su Xiao and went inside.

"Tsk tsk tsk, see that? Never offend Jiang Li, no matter who you are. Who is she? She's a wood-type ability user, someone who can grow food directly. What's more important than food these days?"

Su Xiao's expression darkened further as she listened to their words, and she returned home.

"Why are you back so soon?" Su's mother exclaimed sharply when she saw that Su Xiao's hands were empty. "Where's the rice?"

Su Xiao pouted, "She won't sell it to our family."

Su's mother frowned. "Is it because of what happened before?"

Su Xiao nodded.

Su's mother gritted her teeth, "Look what trouble you've caused! Tomorrow you're getting your ass into the safe zone to buy rice! Do you hear me?"

Jiang Li really holds a grudge; she said she wouldn't deal with the Su family anymore, and she didn't! What can we do? The rice belongs to them, so naturally she has the final say. If we can't buy it from Jiang Li, we'll have to go to the safe zone to buy it.

After all, no household in the entire field area has any extra rice to sell right now.

Su Xiao was also annoyed, and muttered, "I know."

"Oh, by the way," Su's mother said, bringing up another matter, "this morning I saw a lot of poisoners come to the fields again. They seemed to be heading into the bamboo forest. Do you know what's going on?"

Su Xiao frowned upon hearing about the poisoners. "What are those mortal wrecks doing always running this way?"

Su's mother looked at Su Wenhu and whispered, "Go to the bamboo forest and see if those people are there, and see what they're doing here."

Not only Su's mother, but also some people who went to the bamboo forest to cut bamboo encountered people from the dark alley.

"That's strange, why are so many people digging for mutated bamboo shoots in the forest?"

The man returned home and told his wife about it.

"Digging for mutant bamboo shoots? What are they going to do with those?"

The man looked completely bewildered. "I don't know."

Men, women, young and old—many people were there, all engrossed in digging bamboo shoots. Judging from their enthusiastic efforts, one might mistake them for digging up some treasure.

The man recalled the scene when he encountered them earlier, "But from what I overheard them talking, it seemed like they were talking about... selling points."

"Selling points?" The woman's eyes widened in surprise. "How can mutated bamboo shoots be sold for points? And who would buy them?"

Even unscrupulous merchants who sell mutated processed foods wouldn't want this stuff. Mutated processed foods are made only from meat, and the processed meat tastes great, is very filling, and only contains a slight amount of toxins.

The man was also puzzled. "Who knows?"
