Scientific Travel

If you want to know where the most plants are, you have to go to the mountains.

Deng Yin took a kitchen knife and picked whatever he saw, then threw the picked items into his spatial storage. He picked enough in no time.

The mountain air was fresh and had a pleasant smell, which Deng Yin loved to smell. Even after he had picked enough, he didn't leave.

It is said that people used to eat everything, not just plants, but also tree bark. Let's gather more to save for later.

I only prepared to go home when I saw it was getting dark.

The cabbages at home were ripe a long time ago, but they've been wilting more and more these past few days, and they'll rot if we don't eat them soon.

With a thought, Deng Yin sent all the cabbages into his spatial dimension.

I discovered this method while collecting plants today. I dug for ages, exhausted, thinking that it would be great if this thing could go directly into the space. Unexpectedly, the flower in front of me actually went into the space the next second.

After returning, I didn't rest. I crushed the plants with stones and put the juice into bottles to store in my space.

We dug up too much mud, and adhering to the principle of not wasting it, we used it all to make bottles.

I made a total of 83 bottles, thinking I wouldn't be able to use them all and could save them for later use, but it turned out that they weren't enough at all.

The extra plants shouldn't be wasted. Separate the edible ones from the uncertain ones. Keep the ones you don't eat in the space; they might come in handy later.

"Congratulations, host, on completing the second task. You are rewarded with four points, a jade bracelet, and your space will increase by fifty square meters, for a total of 100 square meters." The system was very happy to have such a hardworking and ambitious host.

Deng Yin opened the jade bracelet and glanced at the contents, which were the goods she had stockpiled before she came.

Looking at the bag of gold in his spatial storage, Deng Yin had already figured out how to spend the money.

First, open the shop, set aside enough money to buy delicious food and fun activities, and save the rest of the money to upgrade the space.

Deng Yin had never seen what a space with a river looked like before. In a flash, he appeared in the space.

It's more like a pool than a river.

No river is rectangular.

Deng Yin tasted the water; it was very sweet, much better than the water filtered from Shuhu Lake.

"Tongtong, can this space be changed according to my wishes?" It's a shame not to use such good water to raise fish.

The system, unaware of Deng Yin's intentions, replied, "Okay."

Deng Yin dug a small pit next to the river, half the size of the river itself, so that he could catch some fish from the river and raise them there when he had time.

After finishing all that, Deng Yin asked, "Master, can gold bars be used to upgrade the space size?"

"No," the system explained, "Gold bars are not the common currency in this world."

Since that's the case, let's ask Aunt Wang.

You can't go to someone's house empty-handed, so Deng Yin opened the canned food in advance, put it in a bowl, and stored it in his spatial storage. He would take the bowl out when he was almost at Aunt Wang's house.

When Deng arrived, Aunt Wang was chopping firewood.

Seeing Deng Yin arrive, Aunt Wang quickly put down the axe in her hand. "Girl, you're here! Come in and sit down. Wang Xi is inside. Auntie will cut you some fruit."

Deng Yin waved his hands repeatedly. "No need, Auntie, I'm not hungry. I came here because I have a question I want to ask you."

Aunt Wang quickly washed her hands and led Deng into the house to sit down.

"Auntie, have you ever seen a gold coin? Does a gold coin look the same as a copper coin?"

"I've seen it. Gold coins look different from copper coins; they're different in size and design."

Aunt Wang's family is wealthy; they still have gold coins in their house.

Not afraid that Deng Yin would steal the money, he started searching for it right in front of her.

Aunt Wang handed the gold coins to Deng Yin and said, "Look, these are gold coins."

Deng Yin touched it and asked, "Can gold be used directly as gold coins?"

“Of course,” Aunt Wang added, “but gold is not as valuable as gold coins, so there will be a depreciation fee.”

Deng Yin nodded; this was acceptable. "How much is the depreciation fee?"

"Ten silver coins."

not much.

But Deng Yin couldn't accept it.

After asking his questions, Deng Yin prepared to leave, giving the bowl to Aunt Wang before he left.

As soon as Aunt Wang came in, she saw the bowl in Deng Yin's hand. The contents of the bowl seemed to be some kind of meat, and it smelled delicious.

Aunt Wang refused several times, but finally gave in and accepted it.

At dinner, Uncle Li tasted the dish Deng Yin brought and asked, "What kind of dishes did you make? They're quite delicious."

Aunt Wang also took a bite and replied, "I didn't make it, Deng Yin made it. The child brought it over this afternoon."

Uncle Li was very surprised. Deng Yin was good in every way, except that he was introverted and his cooking was terrible. He never expected that his cooking would be so delicious now.

Wang Xi didn't participate in her parents' speech; she was busy eating.

He ate two bowls of rice with the dishes that Deng Yin brought.

Seeing how much Wang Xi enjoyed the food, the couple didn't touch a single bite.

As they were almost finished eating, Uncle Li said to Aunt Wang, "There's meat in this dish. Meat isn't cheap. The other day, the little girl borrowed money from you to buy weed killer. This dish costs well over five copper coins. Tell her later that she doesn't need to pay this back."

Aunt Wang refused, saying, "No, the little girl is very strong-willed. She definitely won't agree to not pay back the money. That child is too thin. I'll buy some pork and send it to her in a couple of days."

The protagonist of the story, Deng Yin, is burning gold.

The cans are sturdy and can withstand fire and heavy pressure.

Deng Yin took out two cans, put the gold bars into one can, and took out a blowtorch from his bracelet to burn the gold bars. In less than half a minute, the gold bars turned into molten gold.

There's a scale inside the bracelet. Deng Yin usually repairs anything that breaks at home himself, and he's very strict about the dosage.

Place the empty box on a scale, remove the weight of the box, then pour 20g of gold liquid into the box. After the gold liquid cools, a gold bean is complete.

Because of this golden bean, Deng Yin was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, and went to the money exchange before dawn.

Deng Yin stood next to the shopkeeper and whispered, "Shopkeeper, I want to exchange gold for gold coins."

The shopkeeper had seen this kind of thing many times. "Alright, please have a seat over there for a while. These customers are all exchanging gold for gold coins."

Following the direction the shopkeeper pointed, Deng Yin saw about ten people sitting on a row of chairs.

Well, I thought gold coins were really valuable, but it turns out everyone has them.

Fortunately, her family was poor and didn't have a straw hat or mask, otherwise she really would have come fully armed.

It wasn't long before it was Deng Yin's turn. A gold coin weighs 16g, and Deng Yin's gold bean weighs 20g. One gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins. 100 divided by 16 equals 6.25, which means 1g of gold coin is equal to 6.25 silver coins, and 4g is 25 silver coins.

After deducting the handling fee of three silver coins, the shopkeeper gave Deng Yin one gold coin and twenty-two silver coins.

Today's task is to spend all 22 silver coins.

To make spending easier, Deng Yin exchanged the two silver coins for copper coins, found a secluded spot, and stored the money in his spatial storage.

Whenever there's something I want to buy, I pretend to take money out of my pocket, but actually I take money from my virtual space.

After buying a lot of delicious food and getting tired of shopping, we happened to walk into the farmers' market. We were out of seeds at home. Although Deng Yin had some in his space, they were all modified. Afraid of being discovered, we still had to plant these seeds.

Regardless of whether they'll be used or not, I'll buy all kinds of seeds, and more of the ones I like to eat.

This is probably the mentality of a poor person who suddenly becomes rich.
