Quick Transmigration: Pangu is Actually My Brother

Chapter 564 Wasteland Scavenging Chronicle (8)

After selling the meat, Wangyou looked at the vegetables she had planted. Hmm, the vegetable garden had expanded considerably, and the soil quality had improved by about an acre. She believed that in a couple of years, her yard would be very suitable for planting.

After inspecting the vegetable garden, Wangyou went to the purchasing station to buy a batch of high-grade nutrient solution, planning to go out and take a look tomorrow.

The next day, after waking up, Wangyou ate something, tidied up, and went out. It was already 2 p.m., just past the peak of radiation.

The newly sprouted wild vegetables are very tender, and this is also the best time to pick low-radiation vegetable leaves, so there are quite a lot of people at this time.

Wangyou didn't go into the crowd. She continued at her previous pace. Her plan was to head back at 6 p.m., finish collecting at 4 p.m., and then wander around to see if she could pick up some wild chicken eggs or wild duck eggs, since her stock was running low.

Wangyou strolled leisurely, gathering vegetable leaves. Before long, her basket was half full. Then she saw those unlucky guys.

I peeked curiously at their baskets. I didn't know when they had come out, but there were only a few vegetable leaves in the baskets, each one distinct. I felt a bit smug, but I was mostly just curious.

When did you guys come out?

"Good afternoon, Forget-Me-Not Girl. You've collected so much already. You're really lucky. We set off before dawn," the fat man said with an awkward smile.

Wangyou's lips twitched. He had left before dawn, and there were only a few vegetable leaves in his basket. How black-hearted must he be?

"What did you do before? How many wicked things did you do to have such bad luck?" Wangyou had filled half a basket in less than half an hour, and that was because she hadn't measured it properly.

"Could it really be because we blew up too many graves in the past?" The fat man looked at his hands suspiciously, then at Wu Xie next to him. Good, they were just as unlucky.

As they got closer, Wangyou could hear the high radiation warnings continuously broadcast from their bracelets. Then she casually pointed to some wild vegetables nearby and said, "Beep! Low-radiation edible bitter greens, can be eaten in large quantities."

"Bitter greens, they don't taste good, forget it, you can have them."

"Okay, thanks, sis." The fat man swiftly cut off the tender bitter vegetable.

To be honest, these guys aren't so bad; at least they didn't try to scheme against her. Seeing how unlucky they are, I'll help them out a little. Afterwards, I can have Fatty prepare another batch of food for her.

"I'll take you to dig for wild vegetables. Come back tomorrow and prepare another batch of food for me."

"Okay, no problem."

What followed was five grown men following Wangyou as she dug for wild vegetables; to be precise, it was Wangyou who was digging.

The more they dug, the more numb they became. They could test a hundred plants and not even find one with moderate radiation. Good heavens, she just pointed to one and found it to be low radiation! They really wanted to latch onto her completely so they wouldn't starve to death.

God knows, when they went out to hunt alien beasts, all they caught were highly radioactive. But at least the highly radioactive beasts could be exchanged for points. However, not eating plants for a long time was harmful to their health. In addition, this place was very dangerous, so they usually acted together.

This is the first time since we came here that we have obtained so many wild vegetables so easily. Back then, there were huge patches of them growing by the roadside, but they wouldn't even glance at them. If they had known they would end up in such a godforsaken place, they would have definitely taken a closer look.

By four o'clock, everyone's baskets were full. "Alright, I'm going to go look for wild chicken eggs or wild duck eggs or something. You guys can do whatever you want."

"Okay, thanks, sister. I'll make you some more food later so you can keep it." The fat man stopped, showing great tact. Although he was disappointed that he couldn't go with Wangyou to pick up bargains, he knew that one should be content and know one's limits.

The group, who were able to return with a full load for the first time, decided to look for any exotic beasts. High radiation was acceptable, but at least they could exchange it for points.

Wangyou found several nests of wild chicken and duck eggs, and without any hesitation, she collected them all. She also killed a few of the chickens and ducks that laid the eggs, and then prepared to go back.

But it was only around five o'clock, and Wangyou didn't want to shop anymore, so she simply went to the purchasing station.

"Miss Wangyou is here again. What good things does she have this time?"

"There's nothing good, just some low-radiation vegetable leaves. I'd like to ask how much those wastelands near my house cost?"

"Why are you buying those wastelands? What use are they?"

"Let's see if it's possible to grow it."

"Alright, those lands aren't expensive, only three points per acre. Are you sure you want them all?"

"Give me all the land within a thousand acres."

"Atmosphere." Although no one knew what she was going to do with it, having points was good enough. As for planting, no one believed that reason; it would be strange if anything could grow in the wasteland.

If things could be grown in the wasteland, humans wouldn't have to live such a difficult life.

After completing the land deed, Wangyou returned home. That very night, she carved an array plate that encompassed the entire thousand acres of land.

So, the fat man and the blind man who rushed over to cook for Wangyou in the middle of the night saw Wangyou busy at work.

The two didn't ask what Wangyou was doing and went straight into the kitchen to get busy.

After Wangyou finished carving the array plate and installed the beast core to test its effect, she went to the kitchen. "Can you guys till the ground?"

"Yes, I guarantee it will be fast and good."

"Then I'll hire you to till the land for me. Each person will get either two catties of grain or fifteen points a day, on the condition that you can't slack off." Wangyou thought that if she was going to hire someone, she might as well hire someone she knew. At least these people seemed reliable.

As for what to do if it turns out to be unreliable, then there's only one option: death.

"No problem, we need grain, but what do you mean by grain?"

"Let's see what you want."

“Okay, no problem. We’ll talk to you when we get back, and we’ll come over tomorrow,” Black Bear said with a smile.

Fatty cooked three dishes and a soup today, just for Wangyou. As for the other two, he gave each of them a bottle of nutrient solution halfway through, not expecting Wangyou to share the food with them.

Wang Pangzi and Hei Xiazi were busy until the early hours of the next day. When they got back, they told the other three, and the other three agreed. Although none of them were professional farmers, they were still making a living from the soil.

The next day, the five people arrived. After discussing it, they decided that three people would ask for food and two people would ask for points. After getting to know each other over the past few days, they also knew that besides food, points were also very difficult to earn.

As for the winter beast tide, it was purely luck. They managed to pick up a few high-level beasts. Normally, they would be lucky to get fifty points for the beasts they hunted.

Wangyou had no objections, pointed out the boundaries of her land to them, and let them get busy.

As for meals, that's not true. The salary she pays isn't low; some people can't earn that much even if their whole family goes out to work in a day.
