I became a farmer in the apocalypse.

There are only these few seeds left. The system hasn't rewarded her with seeds for a long time. Even the rice seeds she's going to plant next were bought by Jiang Li herself from the shop with gold coins.

If the system continues to withhold seeds from her, she will soon run out of seeds and will have to find a way to mine more gold to buy more seeds.

I wonder if she's the only one who can dig for gold, and whether others can? If possible, buy a few more gold pickaxes so that Jiang Yan and Jiang Tang can dig for gold with her when they have time.

Sorry! "Gold Mining" is an attribute possessed only by intermediate-level farmers. World residents cannot obtain this title and therefore do not possess the "Gold Mining" skill.

Jiang Li sighed, "Alright."

"What do you want to plant?" Jiang Li asked Qiao Wu.

She explained, "These are all the seeds I have right now. I'll buy more when I have more money."

Qiao Wu ended up taking 20 cabbage seeds and a bag of grape seeds.

She probably won't be able to plant all these seeds today.

Qiao Wu was overjoyed to receive the seeds. Looking at the plot of land that belonged to her, she was filled with anticipation at the thought of being able to plan her little plot of land as she pleased.

Jiang Li gave her so much freedom, not only giving her land, but also allowing her to decide what to plant as she pleased. This is wonderful!

The more I think about it, the happier I get!

She will definitely farm well!

[Employee [Qiao Wu]'s mood value has exceeded the limit. She seems exceptionally happy. It seems your management style is very effective; your employee is in high spirits! Reward her with a "straw hat." Wearing the straw hat will give her even more energy to work.]

Jiang Li: "..."

He can't live without hats his whole life.

It wasn't anything valuable, but since the system insisted on giving a reward, Jiang Li handed the straw hat to Qiao Wu, saying, "This is your reward."

"Thank you." Qiao Wu took the hat, put it on her head, and then went into the ground to study her field.

After settling things over with Qiao Wu, Jiang Li went to the beverage stall.

Jiang Tang has transformed from a market vendor into a milk tea enthusiast.

Jiang Li went over and saw that Jiang Tang was vigorously shaking milk tea.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Li looked at her with a puzzled expression.

Jiang Tang stopped what she was doing. "I saw that the grapes in your garden were ripe this morning, so I picked some to make grape iced tea."

After saying that, Jiang Tang showed her the small account book.

"Look, we sold 5000 points this morning."

Jiang Li's eyes widened. "What? 5000 points?"

No, is selling grape iced tea really that profitable?

Looking at the stall's revenue, it had already soared to 8140 in the blink of an eye, just 1860 points away from upgrading.

Grandma, what have you been doing?

Jiang Li hurriedly flipped through the small ledger to look for clues.

The record above shows that 181 cups of grape iced tea were sold this morning, with each cup costing 28 points, for a total turnover of 5068 points.

Of these, 49 cups were ordered by the patrol troops and needed to be delivered to the barracks in the afternoon, while the other 134 cups were purchased by people from the alley and the field area over the course of six hours in the morning.

Furthermore, without Jiang Li's knowledge, Jiang Tang had already joined the Tianqu group and was skillfully promoting her grape iced tea there.

As soon as I opened the group chat, it was full of guys trying to sell Jiang Tang.

Many people have rarely eaten grapes since the apocalypse, let alone drunk grape juice. When they heard that grape iced tea was available, they flocked to it.

Before Jiang Li could react, seven or eight more people from the dark alley arrived.

"This giant bamboo shoot can definitely be exchanged for gold coins!"

They chattered amongst themselves as the two of them worked together to carry a bamboo shoot that was even bigger than the last one.

The others also carried large and small bags of trash, joining in the fun.

The two put the large bamboo shoots into the machine.

[Giant bamboo shoot recovered, 2 gold coins!]

A group of people stared intently at the electronic screen, then suddenly erupted in cheers, as if they had won the lottery, shouting:

"We're rich! We're rich!"

Having won the gold coins, he rushed over to find Jiang Li.

"Farmer Jiang, we've dug up another giant bamboo shoot! Can we exchange it for points?"

Of course there was no problem. This was something Jiang Li herself had promised, and she readily fulfilled her promise to them.

The group received their points and excitedly went to Jiang Tang's stall.

"We want to buy grape iced tea!"

I'm so thirsty after working all morning.

The two people who earned the points were going to treat everyone. "I'll treat everyone to a glass of grape iced tea."

The crowd cheered at the sound!

"Very good!"

Jiang Li looked at them and felt a little confused, as they resembled a group of monkeys.

Jiang Tang skillfully peeled the grapes, cut the pulp, mashed the juice, then filled the glass with ice cubes, added some crushed grape pulp, diluted it with water, and shook it. In this way, a glass of grape iced tea was ready.

Jiang Li was stunned.

Is it really that simple and crude?

No syrup at all? The water dilution is blatant...

Can this taste good?

Jiang Li walked over, unconvinced, and said, "Give me a glass of your grape iced tea too."

Jiang Tang then made her a cup as well.

Jiang Li took a sip.

It's icy and sweet, even more refreshing and delicious than the grape iced tea from the fruit tea shop before the apocalypse.

"It tastes so good, you didn't even put in any syrup."

Jiang Tang glanced at her, puzzled, "Don't you know how sweet your own grapes are? Why did you add syrup?"

Jiang Li: "..."

makes sense.

This grape iced tea isn't cloying; it's made with all-natural sugars, and every sip is bursting with refreshing grape flavor.

Jiang Tang: "If you can plant a lemon tree and a jasmine tree, you can make some jasmine tea and add the sourness of lemon. This grape iced tea will taste even better. But when that time comes, you can't just sell it for 28 points a cup. You'll have to raise the price."

After Jiang Tang said that, Jiang Li was also tempted.

It's been a long time since I've had tea. It's time to consider planting some tea trees so that it will be much more convenient to brew tea in the future.

In that instant, another eight cups of grape iced tea were sold.

Everyone thought it tasted great.

"What a great deal!"

"You can taste grapes and even eat the grape pulp for just 28 points!"

After the group left happily, Jiang Li whispered to Jiang Tang, "Is the profit margin high for selling grape iced tea?"

Jiang Tang thought for a moment, "The profit is neither high nor low. Grapes are expensive to begin with, and the cost of a cup of grape iced tea is 20 points, so we can only make a profit of 8 points."

Jiang Tang carefully calculates the amount of grape pulp in each cup. Too much would be a loss, but too little would not taste right. The current amount is just right. It doesn't make a huge profit, but it's still profitable.

"Our advantage is that the fruit comes from our own orchard, so selling fruit tea is like indirectly selling grapes, which is a win-win situation."

Jiang Li thought about it and felt that it made sense!

"By the way, you haven't been back to the safe zone for several days. Have you been staying here all this time without any problems?"

Jiang Tang looked at Jiang Li and smiled, "You and Jiang Yan are my only family. All my family is here. For me, this is home. It doesn't matter whether we go back to the safe zone or not. Aren't we doing just fine here?"

Jiang Li smiled too.

"When I have money, I'll build a guesthouse so we can live better, and Qiao Wu will have a room to stay in instead of sleeping on the floor in the shop."

Jiang Tang believed in her; Jiang Li would definitely earn enough money to build the house.
