Activating the Omniscient System, I'm doomed!
Chapter 85 Silver Tree Village
"Hey guys, this is Silver Tree Village. I heard they held a 49-day farm work competition, and quite a few people participated. The winner was determined by the timer and the completion rate. Sometimes the competition didn't finish until dark."
On the arched bridge in Yinshu Village, an internet celebrity is live-streaming while holding a selfie stick.
"Look at this scenery, it's really beautiful, with green mountains and clear waters. Once I've made enough money, I plan to build a villa here to retire in. My friends, please give me a little red heart."
Luo Yi, wearing sunglasses, walked by.
He used the same disguise as last time, and on the surface, he looked like a thirty-five-year-old small business owner.
Along the way, he encountered many internet celebrities who came to join in the fun, and he knew that as the hype died down, these people would soon disappear.
"Boss, you're so punctual! You said you'd come in 49 days, and you're here exactly on time."
Luo Yi had just walked to the outside of a courtyard wall when he saw a young man running towards him with his mobile phone in his hand.
This person was Ah Sheng, the unemployed young man he had previously entrusted, who was also one of the hosts of the farm work competition.
"How's the event going?" Luo Yi walked around the courtyard wall and came to the cement square in front of his house.
Ah Sheng exclaimed happily, "It's even better than I imagined, boss! You have no idea, we're already a hit on Douyin!"
As he spoke, he brought his phone screen closer, which displayed his Douyin (TikTok) account homepage.
It has 539.6 million likes, 103 followers, and 41.3 fans.
Ah Sheng continued, "As soon as I heard you finish speaking, I knew it would definitely become a hit, because all the major platforms were promoting rural themes."
"Actually, Ah Fei and I also thought about organizing an event, but unfortunately we didn't have the money. Boss, your 50,000 yuan was a real help."
Luo Yi smiled and said, "I watched the live stream. You guys are good at creating entertaining content. You'll become famous sooner or later."
Ah Sheng smiled broadly and happily dialed a phone, saying, "Ah Fei, come to my house quickly, the boss is here! Also, bring the award winners and the list of purchasers."
Not long after the phone call ended, an electric bicycle stopped outside the yard, and a chubby man with a mushroom-shaped haircut walked over, panting, and said sincerely, "Boss."
"These are my purchase records for eggs and banners. I have invoices and a list of bonus recipients. You can check with those people."
Luo Yi took the purchase record and glanced at it. Although the handwriting was messy, the amount for each item was very clear. All 50,000 yuan had been spent, and more than 8,000 yuan had been added as a subsidy.
"I didn't expect so many people to participate. I should have given them more funding."
Ah Fei laughed and said, "We didn't expect that all the elderly folks would rush to sign up when they heard there was a participation prize. The two of us couldn't keep up, so we had to take turns doing a lot of farm work. Yesterday, we didn't finish weeding until it was dark."
"But this time the account became popular, so it was worth it. In addition, we earned a total of 132,300 yuan from live streaming and video revenue. After paying back your 50,000 yuan, we still have more than 80,000 yuan left."
Luo Yi nodded, then took the list of winners to examine it. "Who is this Wu Dazhi? He's won first place 30 times?"
Ah Sheng hurriedly ran over and said with a smile, "Da Zhi is the village's fool, born that way. Nobody expected him to be so capable. He even said he wanted to see you."
"Call him over," Luo Yi said casually.
Ah Fei put down a pile of orders, rode his electric scooter away, and shouted loudly, "Da Zhi, Wu Da Zhi, come quick!"
A short while later, a young man with messy hair, wearing a jacket two sizes too small, came over and stood outside the courtyard wall, chuckling.
Ah Sheng walked over and pulled him inside. "Da Zhi, didn't you want to see the boss? He's right here."
"Oh." Wu Dazhi suddenly turned and ran away.
Seeing this, Ah Sheng and Ah Fei were both annoyed and amused, saying, "Boss, he's a complete idiot, there's no way to communicate with him."
Luo Yi asked, "Did he get all the prize money?"
"All 15,000 yuan went to his grandma. His family only gets a little over 2,000 yuan a year in living allowance, which is enough to live on for several years," Ah Sheng said with a smile.
Ah Fei also said, "For this competition, Aunt Yang even bought a TV. I brought it back for her. Her whole family was so happy. They even cooked at the ancestral hall during the Hundred Families Banquet when they heard you were coming."
"Oh, by the way, I heard you have a tree here that's a thousand years old?" Luo Yi asked curiously as he returned the list.
Ah Sheng shook his head to correct him, "It's 2,700 years! The ginkgo tree is really old."
"More than 2,700 years, that is indeed quite a long time. My grandfather lived in the city and always wanted to find a place like this to live, but unfortunately his health was not good enough to travel long distances."
Luo Yi continued, "I'd like to bring him some things from around the big tree, like yellow soil, gravel, herbs, or morning dew from the leaves. I wonder if that's convenient here, or if there are any taboos?"
"Absolutely not." Ah Sheng quickly waved his hand. "Boss, if you want it, even if there are any taboos, I'll take care of them for you."
Ah Fei added, "Boss, how much do you want? I'll have someone get it for you tomorrow."
"Thank you so much," Luo Yi said with a smile, then added:
"Things like loess and gravel are too much to store at home, so we don't need too much of them. But herbs and morning dew are consumables, so of course the more the better."
"I won't let you work for nothing; I will purchase at market prices."
Ah Sheng waved his hand and said, "Boss, you've already helped us too much. These are all from the mountains, we can't accept your money."
Ah Fei shook his head: "Yeah, morning dew is everywhere, it's not worth much money."
"I can't let you work for nothing. I also hope that more people can help. Let's collect 3500 catties first. We'll buy the morning dew at 100 yuan per catty. We'll store it at your home first, and I'll come to pick it up in a while and settle the payment with you at the same time."
Luo Yi was worried that the village would have trouble calculating the unit of "liter," so he simply used "jin" (斤).
Ah Sheng and Ah Fei exchanged a glance, thinking that the boss in front of them was simply doing a good deed; who would go to such lengths to buy dew?
"Boss, 10 yuan per pound is enough. Just go over in the afternoon to tie up the bags, and go back in the morning to collect them. It only takes two hours, and you can make a lot of money," Fatty suggested.
Luo Yi said seriously, "I'm spending this money to guarantee the quality. It must be the morning dew from that 2,700-year-old ginkgo tree. It can't be exchanged for even a tiny bit of other water. Otherwise, I won't accept it."
"So you'd better store the morning dew separately each day, so that one portion isn't diluted with water and makes everything unsellable."
Upon hearing this, Ah Sheng, who was squatting on the ground, stood up and nodded emphatically, "Boss, just for your filial piety towards Grandpa, I promise I will do it."
Ah Fei laughed and said, "Collecting morning dew by tying bags together is very simple; there's no need to add water."
After Luo Yi finished giving his instructions, he turned to leave, but then he saw a figure running towards him.
It was Wu Dazhi, who had just run away.
He ran back then, carrying two square tin cans in his arms.
"Dazhi, why were you running away just now?"
"I used to always be clamoring to see the boss, but now that he's here, I feel embarrassed."
Ah Fei and Ah Sheng teased him with laughter.
Wu Dazhi walked up to Luo Yi, handed him the two tin cans, and chuckled.
"Thank you, but I can't eat that much. Let's split it in half." Luo Yi took a can and took out a round bean cake to eat.
Wu Dazhi smiled broadly, happily accepted the other can, and hugged it tightly to his chest.
Ah Sheng and Ah Fei exchanged a glance, neither of them expecting their boss to treat a fool like that. They immediately stopped laughing and began to consciously imitate him.
Luo Yi said, "You've won first place 30 times, that's impressive. Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about? Or what do you want me to do for you?"
Wu Dazhi shook his head: "I...I don't know, I'm so stupid, I'm sorry."
"No need to apologize." Luo Yi looked at him seriously. "You were just born with something less than others, and that's not your fault."
Wu Dazhi's lips moved slightly. From the moment he was born, he felt as if he had made a grave mistake. But the young man in front of him was the only one who didn't think that way. He was like a ray of sunshine, brightening his heart.
But after opening his mouth several times, he still didn't know what to say, and finally scratched his head and chuckled.
Luo Yi led Wu Dazhi a little further away and said to him alone, "I can cure you."
"But before that, I need your help with something, which will also be a test for you."
Wu Dazhi scratched his head, saying nothing, but his eyes were incredibly serious.
Luo Yi can certainly cure it. The so-called intellectual disability is just a genetic defect. Once he reaches level 5 special physique, not only can he use his mental power to repair the genetic problem, but he can also directly make people reach level 1 physique.
Of course, in addition to this, you can also ask the Omniscient System for treatment methods.
But he has a lot on his plate right now and doesn't want to spend too much time helping outsiders.
Luo Yi turned towards the ginkgo tree: "See that tree? I need you to collect the dew from its leaves into a bottle every morning, the more the better."
"Remember, it can only be the leaves of that big tree, and it can only be the morning dew. Rainwater won't work."
"Also, keep an eye on the others and see where they're collecting dew. I'll pay you back in a while."
This task was purely to test Wu Dazhi's execution capabilities.
As for the quality of the morning dew, Luo Yi would naturally inquire with the Omniscient System.
Wu Dazhi, whom he also consulted the Omniscient System, is similar to Cheng Xiaolan and is considered a very reliable helper.
Luo Yi planned to have Wu Dazhi reach level 1 after he reached level 5, making him a member of the special physique team and secretly handling other miscellaneous matters.
"Okay!" Wu Dazhi remained silent for a long time before finally uttering a single word. He then opened the tin can, took out a bean cake, and made a crisp chewing sound.
Luo Yi walked away with the other can, and at the same time, with a thought, he activated the Omniscient System and asked:
What consequences will my arrangements in Silvertree Village bring? What troubles will they cause me?
This problem is expected to take 43 minutes.
The question regarding the aftermath of Silvertree Village has been resolved.
