Chapter 230
"That's fine with me!" Jiang Xiaomi said, "But I don't have much time. It's annoying to have so many jobs."
Jiang Xiubai was simply full of nonsense: "I really don't need to trouble you too much, Teacher Jiang, with growing vegetables. What we lack is the technology to grow vegetables? What we lack is seeds!"
"Jiang Xiubai! You are insulting my profession by talking like that!"
The two of them walked towards Lao Jiang's house while talking. As soon as they came back, the fat chef asked people to eat.
Jiang Xiaomi and the other children did not eat with the other children. The children implemented the separate dining system. Each person had a plate, which they had to wash themselves after eating. If they were not full, they could have more food, but it was obvious that they had poor appetites. When they stood up after eating, their legs felt like they were filled with lead and they could not lift them. When they got home, many of them cried.
Jiang Yuan leaned against her mother, silently shedding tears. Tailor Jiang's wife sighed and patted her head: "Dad and Mom told you not to go, but you refused to listen. Now you know how hard it is, right? Can you still hold on? If it really doesn't work, Mom will go talk to your Aunt Xiaomi."
The adults in the village no longer treated Jiang Xiaomi as a child. The fact that Jiang Yipei allowed her to teach the children martial arts showed that she was very capable!
"No!" Jiang Yuan raised her head and refused firmly: "I'm just crying because I'm really tired. I still want to learn. I want to become very strong and protect my mother, sister and brother."
"Good boy." Jiang Tailor's wife smiled. Maybe it was because she was pregnant or sentimental, but she felt like crying.
"Then sister is waiting for you!" Jiang Ni came over with a wooden tray: "Aunt Xiaomi gave me a medicine bag, saying that soaking your feet before going to bed will help you sleep better. Come here."
Jiang Xiaomi gave a foot bath bag to every family. She is an experienced person and knows how tiring it is to start training from scratch. These children are definitely not able to adapt to it. But the foot bath bag is actually not very useful. Just take it as a psychological comfort. After all, it is not expensive, only 9.9 for a big bag.
Jiang Xiubai started to act like a spendthrift when he returned home. He wandered around the house. Liu followed him for a while but couldn't figure out what he was doing. From time to time, she kept asking him whether certain things were useful or not.
Liu was puzzled: "Why are you asking this?"
"There are too many useless things in our house. I have to clean them up."
Liu touched his forehead and said, "You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense? Where can you take these things? Can you move or lift them? My dear, please stop struggling and just lie down! If you get bumped or bruised, you won't be the only one who will feel the pain!"
"Hmmmm!"
Jiang Xiubai responded obediently, and then went back to his room without saying a word. Liu was wondering why the child was so obedient today, but she knew the reason the next day.
"Jiang Xiubai! What did you do!"
Mrs. Liu was going crazy. There were many things missing from the house, and many things that shouldn’t be there were added.
"Mom, I want to sleep a little longer." Jiang Xiubai covered himself with the quilt. He was busy until midnight last night, selling and buying things non-stop.
Get rid of all the unused, half-broken, incomplete, or tattered items at home. Any profit you can make is a good one.
Another way is replacement. For example, the wooden table in his home is made using ancient craftsmanship and is quite valuable, so he sold it and then bought one of similar style to replace it and make a profit from the difference.
But if after selling the old one, there is not enough money to buy a new one, he won’t move.
In order to make money, he no longer carries people on his back.
How could he hide such a big change in the family from Mrs. Liu? He didn't plan to hide it because he found that Jiang Yida and Mrs. Liu seemed to know something, but since they didn't point it out, he pretended not to know.
After a night of hard work, he only earned 10,000 points, which is ten taels of silver. It is still a long way from 20 million points of 20,000 taels. Jiang Xiubai is shocked, but there is no room for maneuver at home. If he wants to earn more points, he will have to work hard outside.
In fact, according to the system's suggestions, the simplest and most efficient way to earn points is still related to plants. Jiang Xiubai thought about running around the village during this period of time to see if there is any tenacious vitality coming out to welcome the spring.
In the following days, Jiang Xiaomi was so busy that she was either training this group of soldiers or taking Jiang Xiubai around the village. Sometimes they even had to go up the mountain. Jiang Xiubai was a useless man and would not be able to walk halfway, so she had to carry him back.
It’s just that!
Jiang Xiaomi felt that she must have committed sins in her previous life, otherwise she would not have gotten into such trouble in this life.
The people in the village saw them being so close to each other every day and had already started to laugh at them. If the two of them were not within the fifth degree of mourning, there might have been several versions of their marriage proposal circulating.
Jiang Xiubai, who had only earned 100 points for three consecutive days, was so angry that he cursed the system: "Is your scanning broken? Or is there no more species within a ten-mile radius that you can appreciate?"
"Host, let me correct you. You haven't even walked out of the two-mile radius. There are species that can be collected in the middle of Wubei Mountain. If possible, please go and collect them. I believe you will get a good price."
"I'm really impressed!" Jiang Xiubai plugged his hands: "How far do you think I can run now? With my body, can I go up the mountain and come back alive? Can you think of a way to let my body recover in a short time! Otherwise, how can I find it?"
"Host, please wait a moment—"
The system fell silent after it finished speaking. Jiang Xiubai guessed that it was trying to find a solution, but after waiting for half an hour, there was still no response. Just when Jiang Xiubai was losing his patience, the system appeared: "There is a medicine now. After taking it, you will be no different from a normal person within a week."
"Buy it!" Jiang Xiubai shouted excitedly, but then he thought it was not right: "Tell me first if there are any side effects? After the effect of the medicine wears off, will I become weaker? That won't work! That won't work! What's the difference between this and overdrawing my health!"
"Host, please rest assured. This one selected by the system does not have any side effects."
"This one?" Jiang Xiubai raised his eyebrows: "In other words, there are products with side effects, right?"
system:"……"
You can tell he's either pooping or peeing just by looking at his tail.
Its voice was almost helpless: "The host only has one chance to purchase this type of product, and can only purchase one type, with a limit of two. The most important point is that it can only be used on the host itself. It will have no effect if used on others."
It was so rigorous that Jiang Xiubai almost gave it a thumbs up: "Okay, how much is it?"
"Don't worry, it's definitely within the host's tolerance!"
Jiang Xiubai looked at the price and laughed.
Yes, it is within his tolerance range!
But after the purchase, he was only three points away from being a pauper.
"Thank you for leaving me three points."
"You're welcome. Serving the host is the duty of this system."
Jiang Xiubai: “…”
I can’t tell the difference between good and bad words!
After buying the medicine, Jiang Xiubai still had three points left, but he owed Jiang Yipei 997 points...
He looked at the calendar and drank the potion immediately. Today was February 21st, and it would be Qingming Festival in five days. On this day, all the villagers would come back to worship their ancestors. According to his physical condition, he could not worship Taigong on Qingming Festival. But now, the sky is high and the birds can fly freely, and the sea is wide and the fish can jump freely!
When Jiang Xiaomi was leaving get out of class, she saw a "crazy" boy running towards her. When he got to her, he circled around her and said, "Jiang Xiaomi!"
"I can hear it!" Jiang Xiaomi scratched her ears: "What's wrong? Why are you so happy? No, you you you you——"
Jiang Xiubai said happily: "I'm fine for now!"
"Temporarily?!" Jiang Xiaomi glared at him: "Tell me! What did you do!"
Then Jiang Xiaomi knew about the potion. She closed her eyes and said, "Didn't we agree not to use the system for the time being?"
"But..." Jiang Xiubai didn't want to either: "I'm too weak! I'm out of breath after every step. I've had enough!"
"So how do you feel now?"
"I'm full of strength. I can beat two cows without any problem! Hey hey hey - what are you doing?"
Jiang Xiaomi's knife-handled hand slashed towards Jiang Xiubai without any warning. If nothing unexpected happened, Jiang Xiubai would be slapped by Jiang Xiaomi, but he dodged it.
Jiang Xiaomi raised her eyebrows, moved faster, and even used some skills. Although Jiang Xiubai screamed, he managed to avoid it narrowly every time.
Although it was very embarrassing, the fact was—he avoided it!
Finally, Jiang Xiaomi used 50% of her strength to capture him: "Sister, what are you doing? You just started fighting when you don't agree with me! Yes, I really shouldn't have listened to the system, but I'm just in a hurry..."
System: “…You’d better explain clearly who is deceiving whom!”
Jiang Xiubai had no time to leave it. He was busy pretending to be pitiful to Jiang Xiaomi. He hoped that this matter would be over as soon as possible!
"Don't you notice anything different about yourself?"
"No!"
"You have no skills at all, yet you were able to withstand so many moves from me!"
"Ah, really?" Jiang Xiubai touched himself all over his body: "Were you fighting with me just now? I thought you were teasing me?"
Jiang Xiaomi: “…”
"Anyway, your current physical fitness is more than ten times stronger than before. This is the effect of the temporary potion. If your system is really not fooling you, after you take the potion that can heal you, your physical fitness..."
"How's my physical condition?"
"Maybe..." Jiang Xiaomi couldn't think of any words to describe it at first, but suddenly two words popped up in her mind: "evolution..."
"What the hell! Don't scare me~" Jiang Xiubai felt goosebumps all over his body: "What evolution? How did it evolve? Will I become a savage?"
Jiang Xiaomi was speechless: "That's Degenerate Brother! Forget it, you've already drunk it, what's the point of saying this! Whether you evolve or degenerate, you will bear the consequences yourself."
"That's right." Jiang Xiubai was carefree. Since it was already a fait accompli, he immediately stopped thinking about it. He followed Jiang Xiaomi and asked her, "Tomorrow is Sunday. Your disciples will have a day off, right?"
"Yeah." Jiang Xiaomi paused and glanced at him after she finished speaking: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Jiang Xiubai smiled and said, "Let's go up the mountain tomorrow."
"What's there on the mountain that's worth your attention?"
"The system said there are good things in the middle of Wubei Mountain, worth a lot of money!"
Jiang Xiaomi frowned: "Do we have to go at this time? The snow hasn't melted yet!"
Jiang Xiubai held her hand and shook it: "I have already taken the medicine. It would be a waste if I don't go~~"
Jiang Xiaomi simply couldn't stand him: "Okay, okay, go away! Stop being a sissy! We agreed that you have to go early in the morning and go home at noon, no matter if you can find what you want or not!"
"Yeah!" Jiang Xiubai nodded desperately: "I'll do as you say."
The next day, Jiang Xiaomi set out with Jiang Xiubai, carrying a backpack. Since there were only two of them, they brought more equipment. She had a gun and a dagger on her waist, a hidden arrow on her right hand, and a machete in her hand. Then she equipped Jiang Xiubai with a set of equipment according to her standards, except for the gun.
I don't know if the potion has really transformed Jiang Xiubai's genes. He was leading the way in front, and the strength he had in splitting obstacles was terrifying. He enjoyed it. If it were in the past, he would have complained bitterly after just swinging his knife at the air.
"Follow my footprints. The snow is so thick. It would be bad if there are sharp tree roots hidden there."
"You should also be careful."
To be honest, Jiang Xiaomi was not used to it. You know, this Young Master Bai always followed her and asked her for protection. She never thought that there would be a day when she would be taken care of by him. It was too rare.
Could it be that the medicines in this system can not only strengthen the body, but also evolve the brain?
As Qingming Festival approaches, the temperature has been rising slowly, but today's temperature is still minus ten degrees Celsius. The mountains are very quiet, and not a single bird or insect can be heard. I wonder if they have hidden themselves or are no longer here.
Although it is no longer snowing, the accumulated snow has not melted yet. Every time you step, there is a snow pit of more than ten centimeters. The strong wind is blowing. Although the trees on the mountain are bare, every branch is covered with snow. The strong wind shuttles through the trees, making strange noises and blowing off clumps of snow that hit the two people from time to time.
In such an environment, Jiang Xiaomi did not turn back, but was willing to continue to accompany Jiang Xiubai into the mountains. This deep revolutionary friendship almost moved her.
Following the directions of the system, Jiang Xiubai led Jiang Xiaomi to walk eastwards. After walking for half an hour, Jiang Xiubai rested for a while with his trekking pole and said to Jiang Xiaomi, "Hold on a little longer, we're almost there."
Then, this so-called "a moment" was almost half an hour, until Jiang Xiaomi's forehead began to hurt, and she finally reached the destination mentioned by the system - the middle of Wubei Mountain.
"You speak fast, really fast!"
Jiang Xiaomi sat on a big rock and took out her thermos to drink water. After being blown by the wind for more than an hour, her face was stiff.
"It's been a little long, but it's time now! It's all the system's fault for telling the time wrong!" Jiang Xiubai also sat down next to Jiang Xiaomi, drank some water, and started looking for the "good stuff" that the system mentioned. He didn't show any signs of tiredness at all.
