Chapter 16
Large farmer: "A few years ago, someone here sold me a 150-year-old ginseng that went for 3 million yuan at the time. Of course I need to make some profit, so I can only sell it to you for 2.6 million yuan. But you have to guarantee that the ginseng is of good quality without any defects that could impact its medicinal value."
"That's a given." The price offered by the large farmer was a bit higher than An ZhiXia had expected.
The deal was made, and An ZhiXia directly sent him a list of items she needed.
What she asked for were all very ordinary things, like pairs of various livestock, and the rest were food and household items. She also asked the farmer to help her procure a batch of supplies appropriate for this time period.
This money was as good as free money to her, so she didn't feel bad spending it. Although An ZhiXia could currently enter the space, she could only move freely within this house. Once she stepped out of the house, she would be affected by the accelerated time in the space and rapidly age.
Worried that she might get carried away someday, she had locked the door from the inside as a precaution against accidentally wandering out.
Fortunately, she could completely control everything in the space with her consciousness, and didn't need to do anything manually.
An ZhiXia used her consciousness to dig up some ginseng. She didn't know much about it either, just going by feel in her selection.
The trading device had 10 storage slots that could be used to store items, with unlimited stacking of identical items. An ZhiXia first stored the ginseng in a slot, then initiated a trade, sending the ginseng to the large farmer.
"By the way, do you have anything that can be used to pack stuff?"
The large farmer had just received the ginseng in hand and was examining it carefully, although he didn't know much about it either.
But he had too many of the things An ZhiXia asked for. Without even replying, he directly sent over 10 foam boxes and a stack of cardboard boxes, along with some rolls of clear tape.
An ZhiXia picked a few of each type of fruit, and fished out some seafood from the ocean. She filled two foam boxes to send to the other party.
"These are some of the items I have. I'm sending you some to try. If you need more, you can also initiate a trade!"
The large farmer was probably embarrassed by the gift and also sent some things over. "Thank you. These are a pig and a cow I just slaughtered from my farm. Although they are not as precious as your emperor crabs, you can still have a taste."
Wealthy lady from the 70s: "Thank you too."
So much meat, she was overjoyed.
She'd probably have to sell them all just to afford adding one special energy plane friend!
As an ordinary plane herself, even if she did manage to add a special plane, they might not even look upon her favorably, and there were huge risks involved.
Moreover, if she could add someone from a cultivation plane for example, as an ordinary plane human, she wouldn't be able to cultivate even if she somehow obtained a cultivation technique through affinity.
So it seemed rather meaningless, though cultivation plane star coins were probably easier to obtain.
Oh well, she was just an ordinary person. Being able to transmigrate and obtain this space and planar trading device was already heaven-defying enough. As for anything else, she would just let nature take its course.
An ZhiXia chose to sell ten thousand-year ginsengs. The trading device even displayed merchandise she could purchase with star coins - she could buy merchandise display cabinets, expand her residence, and some items she couldn't even recognize or understand - those were probably the things containing special energy.
The more An ZhiXia looked, the poorer she felt. She simply closed the page and chose to add a friend instead.
This time it was a post-apocalyptic plane, but the avatar was dim, showing they were offline. She heard someone knocking on the door outside, so she hurriedly exited.
"ZhiXia, dinner is ready." Liu Ling's voice came from the door, along with a tender, childish voice babbling, "Auntie, eat dinner..." as if calling out to someone, and also muttering to herself.
"Coming." An ZhiXia responded and opened the door to exit.
The little one was leaning with both hands on the door. As she opened it, the toddler stumbled forward a step right into her legs.
Liu Ling was startled and moved to catch her, but saw that An ZhiXia had already picked her up.
"Little one, were you calling me for dinner?"
An ZhiXia smiled and pinched her cheek lightly.
An WenQing became shy and reached out for Liu Ling to hold her.
Liu Ling took her into her arms, and she immediately nestled against her mother's shoulder. Then she peeked up at An ZhiXia.
Finding An ZhiXia was also looking at her, she broke into a beaming smile and kicked her legs excitedly, before burying her face in Liu Ling's shoulder again to hide.
