I became a farmer in the apocalypse.
Chapter 61 Taking Delivery
Liu Qing's face paled when she met the disgusted looks in her second brother and sister-in-law's eyes.
She thought for a moment and said to Liu Weijun, "Second Brother, if you really don't trust me, you can come with me to pick up the goods. The points won't pass through my hands, and you can see it with your own eyes. It can't be fake."
Upon hearing this, Liu Weijun sneered, "Liu Qing, to tell you the truth, a wholesale price of fifty points per pound is simply impossible."
He stated bluntly, "I asked the people at the vegetable market, and they get their potatoes from Dongyang Farm. The lowest price they pay is 55 points per pound! The prices at other farms are also around 55 points per pound. There's no way you can get them for 50 points!"
So without even thinking about it, it's definitely a scam!
He didn't know where Liu Qing heard this news from. If such a channel existed, it would have been snapped up by businessmen long ago. How could it possibly be their turn?
Some time ago, he went to the vegetable market and tried every means to inquire about various channels. Not long ago, he met a young man carrying so many vegetables in and thought he had some connections. He offered him a cigarette, but didn't get any information from him.
Liu Qing knew, of course, that what Liu Weijun said was true, which is why she was so surprised when Jiang Li told her that she could get the goods for 50 points.
What's the difference between this and giving money away?
The more this happened, the more she had to seize the opportunity. "Wei Jun, if you're worried about being scammed, just lend me 2500 points. I'll do this business myself, and I'll definitely pay you back as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Liu Weijun's eyes widened instantly. "You still won't give up! You actually dare to ask me for 2500 points!"
"No! I don't have any money to lend you!"
Today's expenditure: Wooden fence - 1200 points
Today's income: 0
The next day, Jiang Yan carried fifty pounds of potatoes to the safe zone early in the morning to deliver them.
Since Ta Ward announced heightened security measures, buses traveling between Ta Ward and the safety zone have been changed to run every three hours, four times a day, at 6:00, 9:00, 12:00, and 15:00.
I didn't have enough time yesterday, so I didn't go to deliver the goods.
When Jiang Yan arrived at the bus stop at 6:20, the first bus had not yet left the safe zone. He waited for more than ten minutes before he saw the bus approaching from afar.
Some people got off the car, and Jiang Yan saw Liu Qing.
"Sister Liu, did you go back to the safe zone yesterday?" he asked.
Liu Qing nodded. Yesterday, she missed the last bus back to the fields and felt embarrassed to stay overnight at her parents' house.
Nine people lived in one house at her parents' house, so there was no place for her to stay. She slept on a bench in the square for the night. There were patrolling soldiers, so she didn't have to worry about safety. It was just a bit cold at night.
After leaving the bus stop, Liu Qing first went to check on Jiang Li's safe house. Seeing that the door was locked, she figured Jiang Li was probably still sleeping, so she didn't disturb her and went back to her own room.
When Wei Dahai saw that she had returned, he didn't ask her what she had been doing and went back to sleep.
Liu Qing sighed.
Wei Dahai doesn't care about anything. He probably wouldn't even notice if she died outside one day. He only cares about whether he has enough to eat and sleep.
Around 8 o'clock, Jiang Li got up, cooked two potato dumplings for the piglets, tied Da Mao and Er Mao (chickens) to the door, and scattered a handful of rice on the ground.
After finishing these tasks, Jiang Li boiled two eggs for herself, cooked a pot of porridge in a small pot, slurped up the porridge, stuffed the two eggs into her mouth, and then hurried off to work in the vegetable garden.
After this period of experimentation, Jiang Li has gained a certain understanding of her abilities. Her special ability allows her to provide plants with the necessary nutrients, water, and even temperature during the growth process.
However, if none of these conditions are met, she can still make the plant grow, but that would require a lot of energy to make up for the missing conditions, and the energy consumption would be enormous.
Therefore, we still need to properly prepare the land, water and fertilize it, and make good plans for the space and soil for the seedlings.
Today's task is to plant the soybeans and the tomato seeds she bought earlier. These days, she uses the little energy she has left to accelerate the growth of the soybeans. The soybeans have already grown to 5 centimeters tall, and she has removed the small number of mutated ones.
Just then, Liu Qing arrived with Wei Zhou.
"Miss Jiang, may I come and pick up some goods? I borrowed some points from my family and plan to take 50 jin of potatoes from you first."
"sure."
Jiang Li put down the hoe, led her into the safe house, took out the remaining large bag of potatoes, and also took out a portable electronic crane scale.
"Weigh yourself out and take fifty pounds with you."
Liu Qing picked out the goods, put them in a snakeskin bag, and weighed them; they weighed 50.15 jin (approximately 25.5 catties).
She transferred 2508 points to Jiang Li.
Liu Qing wasn't a strength evolver; she was a level two speed evolver. She had to carry the fifty-pound potatoes with both hands; they felt heavy in her hands, but at that moment, they represented all her hopes! If these potatoes sold successfully, she could earn 500 points in one go!
To save on shipping costs, Liu Qing had Wei Zhou squeeze onto the bus with her and gave him a burlap sack to carry out of the 20 jin (10 catties) of potatoes. This way, she would only have to pay the 10 jin (5 catties) overweight fee, which was 20 points.
