Shen Muyu hadn't expected that everyone had encountered rats; she thought it was just bad luck on her part.
Opening the shop, Shen Muyu remade tires from the materials obtained from selling the tires and put them back up. This time, however, he added several links, allowing users to exchange them for gasoline, food, and some special materials.
After sorting through the messages for about half an hour, Shen Muyu finally finished processing the private messages in the backend. He traded the tires for several blueprints of everyday items and some other interesting little things that he didn't know what they were.
"Replenishing items one by one is such a waste of time," Shen Muyu complained. This store only allows listed finished products; there's no way to craft items from materials and blueprints. You have to replenish stock yourself when it's out of stock.
"Master, once you upgrade Little A to level two and grant it permissions, Little A can help you handle these links," Little A said immediately after hearing Shen Muyu's words.
"Wow! Little A, how are you so amazing! Don't worry, I'll collect the materials as soon as possible to upgrade you!" Shen Muyu's eyes lit up when she heard this. She didn't expect Little A to be so intelligent. It's simply an essential helper in life.
After driving almost non-stop all morning, and based on yesterday's experience, Shen Muyu discovered that a resource box would appear approximately every 40 to 50 kilometers.
After obtaining the fifth resource box, Shen Muyu stopped. Her churning stomach and her inability to concentrate were telling her that she needed to rest.
After carefully observing the surroundings, Shen Muyu got out of the car, stretched, and felt that her limbs belonged to her. Then she got back into the car, turned off the engine, and climbed into the trunk.
Four of the five resource boxes were wooden boxes, and only one was bronze.
Shen Muyu had thought she would get a blueprint from the bronze treasure chest, but she couldn't find it after searching everywhere. Just as she was feeling disappointed, she was pleasantly surprised when she took out something that looked like a sunflower from the chest.
After pulling the sunflower out, it grew to about a meter in size, much like the floor lamp we used to have at home. Its disc emitted a soft yellow light, illuminating the entire trunk.
Shen Muyu suddenly felt very relaxed. The uncomfortable feeling of being weighed down by a stone suddenly disappeared. She glanced at her mood value and found that it had reached 91.
Shen Muyu nodded in satisfaction; this was much better than the random blueprints.
To prevent it from blocking the way, Shen Muyu reached out and placed it behind the passenger seat, with the flower head resting on the passenger seat. Surprisingly, the sunflower felt just like a real one, even the petals were soft.
Now that her backpack was full, Shen Muyu sorted everything and put it into the resource box. She thought that putting things in would compress the space as before, but who knew that as long as something that didn't belong to it was put in, the box would automatically turn into a normal box, and even its own items would be ejected.
The boxes and tires exchanged this morning greatly enriched Shen Muyu's supplies; the snacks alone filled four wooden boxes.
What made Shen Muyu happiest was that she received a pound of flour and a pound of rice in the morning. She could use the iron pot to make braised noodles or rice for dinner. Just thinking about it made her mouth water.
However, lunchtime was too short to prepare a complicated meal, so she planned to just have some instant noodles with some sausage.
The instant noodles were taken out of a box. There were two packs of braised beef noodles and two sausages. In this world, it was actually considered a feast, since there were still many people who didn't even have bread to eat and could only drink water flowing down from the cave to fill their stomachs.
The water dispenser from the red stone backpack could provide hot water directly, but Shen Muyu didn't want to waste the 5L of purified water, so he replaced the water with water from the water purifier.
After preparing the noodles, Shen Muyu first opened the backpack of the red stone. When he saw that the purified water had turned into two buckets, a big smile appeared on Shen Muyu's face. This amplification opportunity could actually be refreshed. It seems that even gamblers can have a future.
After closing the interface, Shen Muyu was about to organize the backpack in the green stone when she suddenly noticed a red dot in the chat box. This meant that someone had messaged her privately, but almost everyone she knew had run away because of Gu Wenchen, so who would be looking for her?
Upon opening the chat interface, I was surprised to find over 99 unread messages in the uncategorized section, and all of these messages originated from the same person.
Shen Muyu clicked on it and scrolled to the top.
"It really is you! I never expected that we would be assigned to the same district."
"Why aren't you talking to me? It's me, Feifei! Ji Fei! Don't you remember me?"
"Ah! You ungrateful woman!"
...
"Please pay attention to me!"
"Waaah, I admit our relationship wasn't great before, but we reconciled because of that woman Qin Tingxue!"
"Don't be so stingy. Anyway, none of us got Wen Chen, so we can still be sisters."
"But Qin Tingxue isn't in this area. Do you think I have another chance? Who knows if she's still alive?"
"Don't try to take it from me, I was the one who chatted with Brother Wen Chen first this time."
...
"You're not really angry, are you? Actually, it's not a bad thing to give Wen Chen to you, after all, you've done so much for him."
Hey! Pay attention to me!
...
"Please pay attention to me, please pay attention to me, I'm so bored. (Poor me.)"
...
Shen Muyu was completely numb from the bombardment of hundreds of messages.
This Ji Fei... she really hasn't changed at all, still a simple-minded little (idiot).
Ji Fei is also one of the female supporting characters. She and Shen Muyu are rivals in love. They used to tease each other a lot because of Gu Wenchen. Now, thinking about it, they still find it hard to talk about that past.
However, Ji Fei failed later, and Gu Wenchen became Shen Muyu's boyfriend. There was no other reason than that Shen Muyu's family was richer and more powerful, and she could become a better stepping stone for the male lead.
However, Ji Fei is quite lucky. If she were to end up with Gu Wenchen, she would be the one to have her family fortune taken away and her parents fall ill.
As for Qin Tingxue, whom Ji Fei mentioned, she was the female lead of the original world and the child of Shen Muyu's mother's younger sister. She and Gu Wenchen were practically in cahoots, both parasites sucking the blood of others. Unfortunately, Shen Muyu at that time was forced to lower his intelligence due to the plot and couldn't see through their dirty thoughts at all.
As the past resurfaced, an unyielding resentment filled Shen Muyu's eyes. If it weren't for them, her parents wouldn't have become sickly and dependent on medication. And that so-called world will—once she found the opportunity, she wouldn't let any of them get away with it.
