With a cheat code, she travels through the 40s and hoards goods to take her motherland to new height
Chapter 8: First Day of Work
stunned!
Shu Ran didn't have time to think too much. She quickly went through the entire mall in two minutes and selected a few items that she urgently needed.
A set of special labor-saving mining tools costs 300 points, a single pill costs 500 points, a puppet doll costs 1,000 points, and a Rejuvenation Pill costs 10,000 points, which seems unaffordable.
The prices on the mall's product pages are arranged from low to high, with three pages in total and ten items on each page. The lowest price is for 30 bottles of Meimei Fruit Flavored Nutritional Liquid for 1 point, and the highest price is for 10,000 points for a bottle of Premium Immaculate Rejuvenation Pill (10 pills).
Except for nutrient solution, which has no purchase limit, everything else is limited to one item per purchase.
Looking at the top right corner, unsurprisingly, the current score is zero.
7:15 countdown
Open the redemption interface, try out each item in your space one by one, and see which one earns the most points.
Gold jewelry, 0.001 points. This is too much of a loss. I'll take it back and exchange it for something else.
White Jade, 0.001 points, no good, get down here!
Fragile handicraft, 0.0001 points, unacceptable, eliminated!
I tried, and the countdown has reached 6:12.
Thinking of the interstellar novels she had read, Shu Ran had a sudden inspiration and took out a fruit or vegetable from the main kitchen and put it on top.
Natural apple, 5 points, redeem!
Shu Ran's eyes lit up; she was on the right track.
After that, the speed increased.
I went straight for the big baskets, and twelve baskets of fresh fruits and vegetables earned me 5842 points – totally worth it!
It's a bit of a shame that we were collecting things in winter. Although there was plenty of New Year's goods, there were still some fresh fruits and vegetables, especially leafy greens.
5:01
He quickly redeemed the few items he urgently needed, spending 1800 points.
She was very tempted by the Rejuvenation Pill at the end, and seeing that there was still enough time, Shu Ran continued to put the other items collected from the main kitchen onto the exchange table.
Edible natural powder, 2 points, redeem now!
(ノ⊙w⊙)ノ Wow, with this name, flour has never been able to hold its head high in the food world since.
While grains, potatoes, sweet potatoes, dried vegetables, and other dried goods can't compare to items like apples, the points earned from redeeming them are still considerable, so I decided to redeem them all, bringing my total points to 8372.
Just a little bit left, the countdown is getting tense.
2:36
My gaze swept across the room and I spotted the petals and leaves placed alone in the corner. They're another cheat code, so this is the one!
Shu Ran stared wide-eyed in surprise. A single petal was worth 100 points, and a single leaf was worth 20 points.
Indeed, there's a reason why it can be used as a cheat!
She clearly remembered while tidying up that, after using the ones she had used, she still had 440 petals and 170 leaves.
I grabbed a small handful of flower petals to exchange, and my points instantly became five figures.
I have enough points. (40 flower petals used)
Let's buy the Rejuvenation Pill first!
1:21 countdown
With the remaining 2172 points, I quickly made purchases based on what interested me.
15, 14, 13...
Before the deadline, Shu Ran quickly exchanged all the remaining 72 points for nutrient solution.
3, 2, 1.
Whew~ Her hands were shaking with nervousness. Time was so tight, she was afraid she wouldn't make it in time!
Shu Ran exhaled and relaxed her tense body.
She swallowed the Power Pill directly, and put the rest of the items she had exchanged into her spatial storage. Shu Ran lay down peacefully.
"Wait a minute, 007, you haven't told me about the benefits yet. What's the base salary? How is the commission calculated? Are there social insurance and housing fund benefits? Is my personal safety guaranteed?"
A barrage of questions poured out of Shu Ran's mouth. She was no longer the naive newbie she once was; no one could fool her!
[Monthly submission of 1500 ore, level not limited, base salary 3000 Star Coins. After completing the minimum task, our company will purchase any excess at the market price of ore, or you may choose to take it with you. However, ore of level 5 and above must be traded to our company; private possession is not allowed. We do not provide social insurance and housing fund, but our company will ensure the personal safety of our employees…]
"I'm ready, 007. We can go into the mine."
Okay, a temporary language translator has been installed for you. Have a nice day!
It wasn't pleasant at all, thank you!
"What are you standing there for, you brat? Hurry up and get your things and go inside to work."
The gruff voice was deafening. When Shu Ran opened her eyes, she saw a burly, blue-skinned man, over two meters tall, pinching a small button and stuffing it into her hand.
A powerful force struck, and Shu Ran staggered back a step.
No, is it that the super-strength pills don't work? Or are aliens just naturally strong?
The confidence that the Power Pill had given her vanished instantly. Gripping the spatial button in her hand tightly, Shu Ran silently followed the group ahead into the cave.
"Bang, bang, bang! Once you've chosen your mine, get in line! Hurry up, don't dawdle!"
It was another supervisor wearing a hat, walking back and forth in the crowd with his hands behind his back, occasionally pushing hesitant people next to him into the nearest line.
At first glance, the cave was filled with people of all skin colors, a dazzling array of hues including red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, white, gold, and silver, which made Shu Ran's eyes ache.
Following the example of those around me, I stuck the spatial button to my wrist and it stuck. By concentrating, I could see the inside of the spatial button.
The space was small, about 10 cubic meters, with only a pickaxe and a bottle of strangely colored, sticky, grass-smelling nutrient solution lying quietly inside.
I tried my own space again, and it works normally.
Carefully avoiding the overseer's route, Shu Ran carefully observed the ten lines in front of her. Lines 1, 4, and 5 had the most people, almost all of them strong young men and women. Lines 2, 7, and 9 had the fewest people, including the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled, and were generally thin compared to the other lines.
To be on the safe side, Shu Ran decided to play it safe and lay low for now; her small frame didn't support her acting recklessly!
She went straight to the number 7 seat, which wasn't far away, and lined up behind a woman with curly hair so she could try it out first.
"So young and already working? Is he even an adult?"
The curly-haired woman's eyes lit up, and she looked at Shu Ran as if she were looking at a walking banknote—no, I mean a star coin.
"You're an adult now!"
Shu Ran subconsciously replied that it wasn't wrong to say that way. Her soul was still her soul. The 24-year-old Shu Ran was no longer the eight- or nine-year-old child like Qian Duoduo.
"You're an adult now!" The curly-haired woman was somewhat disappointed, her previous enthusiasm gone. She had thought she could report them and get some hush money! She immediately turned away indifferently.
"Sis, when do we start working?"
"Just wait! It's not time yet!" As if remembering something, the curly-haired woman, who had been nonchalant just moments before, became enthusiastic again. "Are you new here?"
"Yes, this is my first time working in this mining area."
"Okay, give me your nutrient solution for today, and I'll explain the situation here. Shall we make a deal?"
Seeing Shu Ran hesitate, the curly-haired woman raised her stakes: "I've worked in the mining area for most of my life. If it weren't for the accident... well, never mind. It's not that I'm after your nutrient solution. I just see you're so thin and small, just like my little granddaughter, and I want to help you."
The speed at which she changed her expression, the acting skills—Shu Ran's lips twitched. Only a fool would believe that!
