Chapter 75: Mutated Beast Meat
Early the next morning, Xiao Xiao got up on time. After a night's rest, her spirit had returned to a relatively normal state.
When she woke up, Xiao Xiao still used her mental strength to probe around, and found that she was in an unfamiliar place... After a while, she recalled that she is in the guest room of Gu Chen's house.
Xiao Xiao relaxed her tense nerves.
This is not because her vigilance is too high. The reason for her doing this is very simple, because for the past six months, she has been digging holes or climbing trees every time she rests, or sometimes when she wakes up.
Finding herself surrounded by a group of mutant beasts—when Xiao Xiao entered a dormant state, if she hadn't specially developed her mental power field, she would not have been discovered by the mutant beasts.
So often after waking up, Xiao Xiao has to face a fight or run away. Over time, she has gradually developed her fighting instinct.
After leaving the room, Xiao Xiao saw Gu Chen sitting at the dining table, holding coffee in one hand, and sliding the other hand on the communicator, completely entering work mode.
"Wake up? Let's have something to eat!" Gu Chen didn't lift his head, and greeted Xiao Xiao while busy.
After yesterday's observation, Gu Chen found that as long as he focused on Xiao Xiao, he could feel the existence of 'her'.
After grasping this trick, Gu Chen didn't pay much attention to the situation he discovered yesterday - when he thought about it, it was probably because Xiao Xiao's mental power level was higher than his, so this situation happened.
"After eating, I'll take you to the slaughterhouse first, and then I have to go back to the office building. Do you want to follow?" Gu Chen wasn't sure if Xiao Xiao had any other itineraries. Anyway, the communication device was already given to her, so it was quite convenient to find someone. Yes, he is not worried that people will get lost, so he asked her for her opinion symbolically.
"Yeah." Xiao Xiao replied softly and sat down to enjoy her breakfast.
Gu Chen raised his head and glanced at her at this time. Seeing that Xiao Xiao had no special reaction, he continued to lower his head and do his work.
"Don't worry, eat slowly, we will leave in about half an hour."
Of course Xiao Xiao is not in a hurry, now every meal is a blessing to her, the feeling of restarting her taste buds is really indescribable beauty.
...
After Xiao Xiao finished eating, Gu Chen hurriedly dragged the person to the slaughterhouse, and discussed a few words with the person in charge, and then nodded to Xiao Xiao, so that she could start unloading.
"Here?" Xiao Xiao was a little curious. It doesn't look like a place to be tested, does it?
Their current location is in a place with steel walls on all sides and an open space inside, and the entire area has only one entrance for them to come in. It doesn't look like there is an instrument that can detect the corpses of mutant beasts.
"It's here." Gu Chen shook his head, telling Xiao Xiao not to worry too much.
As soon as Gu Chen's voice fell, Xiao Xiao saw that the floor in the center of the open space suddenly cracked from both sides. It turned out that the open space itself was a gate.
"Haha! Marshal Gu, I really didn't expect that this thing that I designed would be useful one day!" The person in charge... Jiang Wang introduced with a smile: "The extra-large scanner was originally designed for the future when going to sea, it will only be used when you bring back a large number of mutant fish, but now let’s not talk about the sea, it is very difficult to come up with a city...”
In Jiang Wang’s eloquent introduction, the entire scanner gradually changed from as the gate rose, revealing its true colors in front of everyone.
"Miss Xiao, Marshal, you can start using it now. The operation of this instrument is very simple, probably..."
Jiang Wang briefly explained, and after letting the two understand a little bit, he nodded politely and said: "It seems that both of you have learned it! For the sake of privacy, I will leave first. After you are finished, you can just find me outside."
After Jiang Wang finished his introduction, he nodded to the two of them and left.
Although Xiao Xiao didn't understand it very well, Gu Chen was very familiar with it, so Xiao Xiao only saw that after he was familiar with operating the instrument, the whole instrument started to operate with a roaring sound.
"Okay, let's start."
After receiving Gu Chen's approval, Xiao Xiao directly pulled a small piece from the corpse in the space and started throwing it out in the center of the empty space.
...
Half an hour later, Gu Chen was a little surprised that he hadn't played yet, so he hurriedly shifted his gaze from the communicator to the entire analyzer, and then looked at Xiao Xiao hesitantly. Unfortunately, Xiao Xiao didn't notice this, she was concentrating on throwing out the corpses of the mutant beasts.
Seeing that Xiao Xiao didn't react, Gu Chen just twitched his cheeks slightly, then shook his head, ignored Xiao Xiao, and continued to explain some things to the communicator.
...
An hour later, when Gu Chen looked up again, his face was a little out of place, and Xiao Xiao still continued her actions, completely unaware that Gu Chen was no longer focused on his communication device. Instead, he was watching her behavior.
Gu Chen stared at Xiao Xiao closely, and occasionally looked at the numbers marked on the instrument. He didn't dare to relax and get busy, because he always felt that Xiao Xiao was going to make trouble again.
...
Two hours later, Gu Chen finally couldn't take it anymore, so he stopped directly.
"Okay, stop!"
"Huh?"
Xiao Xiao was getting excited now, but Gu Chen suddenly interjected a sentence, telling her not to change, so he looked at Gu Chen with a puzzled look.
"The amount you exchange now is enough to feed the entire K city for a month."
Gu Chen looked at the statistics panel on the side with a livid face. The figure was already as high as 60,000 kilograms and a terrifying 1,800,000 points. He quickly told Xiao Xiao to stop.
With Gu Chen's gaze, Xiao Xiao realized that she was causing trouble again, so she immediately stopped the movement of carrying, and hurriedly took her hand back, indicating that she would not continue.
"The mutated animal meat is so valuable!"
Xiao Xiao looked at the price list with disappointment, she really didn't expect this, what she carried out was just a drop in the bucket in her space!
"..." Gu Chen looked at Xiao Xiao wordlessly, and then explained:
"Not everyone can have as much space as you, and if you go out to hunt in the clearing area or hunting area, the mutation you will hit will be different. The animal meat can’t be brought back either—if it’s not marinated or frozen, the corpse will already stink! And through the space ability person can bring back some, but the amount is not much, so the mutant animal meat is now very expensive."
The main reason for Gu Chen's call to stop at this time was that he found that Xiao Xiao's space also had the function of stopping time - because all the mutant beast corpses she threw out looked like they had just died not long ago.
At present, the goods shipped by Xiao Xiao, even if they are made into jerky, will take a lot of work. If there is more, it will exceed the load and become a waste, so he is in a hurry to stop Xiao Xiao.
"Is that so..." Xiao Xiao immediately understood when she heard Gu Chen's explanation. It turned out that this was the reason why the price of mutant beast meat was so expensive.
"At present, the breeding of mutant beasts has also been established. The only pigs, cattle and sheep that can be raised in the past are mutant pigs. The aggression of mutant cows and mutant sheep is too strong. At this stage, it is not suitable to invest a lot of energy to study this aspect."
Gu Chen pointed at the mountain of corpses that Xiao Xiao had brought out, and said, "I just observed that the ones you brought out are still mostly second- and third-tier ones, and in terms of activity, these meats are of the second and third order. The energy can be maintained at least 80%, so there is such a high price... I remember you said yesterday, you have more?"
"Yeah!" Xiao Xiao nodded, indicating that she still has a lot of space to spare: "If you count what I take out today, left meat can probably provide about two or three months?"
"… ..." After hearing Xiao Xiao's statement, Gu Chen was completely speechless. This is enough to provide K City with nearly a hundred times the amount of food for a month? What a joke!
After a short while, Gu Chen reorganized his language and said, "...in two days, I will take you to M City, where there are relatively complete slaughterhouses, you can probably put more, but as I said before, don't spend the points too fast, otherwise it will destroy the market. Understand?"
Hearing that there are still sales, Xiao Xiao immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, indicating that he must follow the leader's instructions.
"I know!"
Xiao Xiao's share is for the twins. It's been a month since they both woke up, and she won't use this credit at all within this month.
"You..." Gu Chen wanted to say something, but after seeing Xiao Xiao's face, he suddenly gave up his persuasion.
Forget it, this is fine, anyway, he will always keep an eye on her. He may have been selfish in the past, but now for Duke Yu, Xiao Xiao is a scourge, and if released, it will probably cause a lot of turmoil.
"Huh?" Seeing that Gu Chen was hesitating to speak, Xiao Xiao looked at him strangely, not quite understanding what he wanted to say.
"Forget it, let's go after the machine has brought these in. I wasted a lot of time today, so I have to go directly to the office building."
Gu Chen shook his head, and then briefly explained, waiting for the machine to remove all the corpses After they were all transported into the factory, he took out his communicator to scan the analyzer, and set the source of these mutant beast corpses as S-level secret before pulling Xiao Xiao away.
"I'll hold the points, you bring your friends over and I'll distribute them together... Well, just in case I'll limit the traffic, you can use up to 10,000 points every month, and it will increase with time, no problem?"
Gu Chen can't guarantee that Xiao Xiao's friends will be as obedient as Xiao Xiao, so he can only use this current limiting method as a norm.
"Okay." Xiao Xiao has absolutely no objection to this, anyway, she can help two sisters first, and there is still that corpse mountain in the space!
"That's right!" When the two returned to the car together, Gu Chen suddenly thought of a very important point.
All Xiao Xiao moved out just now were only mutant beasts, but the magic core was not seen at all, so...
" Where's the magic core? You don't plan to sell it?"
Gu Chen glanced at Xiao Xiao strangely, according to her personality as a money fan, shouldn't it?
"Ah?...Ah!"
After Gu Chen's reminder, Xiao Xiaocai remembered the magic core she completely left behind.
At first, because she was afraid that the twins would get it wrong, she separated the crystal core from the magic core—Xiao Xiao hit more high-level crystal cores, most of which were fourth to sixth-level, while the magic cores that the twins hit were more common. They are all low-level, and all are one to four.
Although quantitatively speaking, the twins hit more, but qualitatively, they are completely incomparable. In order to make the twins recover as soon as possible, Xiao Xiao ordered the two little ones to absorb the crystal cores she hit!
Xiao Xiao swept to another part of the space, and immediately found two other crystal core hills.
"Yes, yes, but didn't you say that my points have exceeded the standard?"
After Xiao Xiao found it, she asked Gu Chen a little strangely. Besides, her magic cores were not sold out. What are you doing with these cores?
"..."
Seeing Xiao Xiao notice this, Gu Chen also had a headache.
Because if you really want to count it, the magic cores in Xiao Xiao's hands are more suitable for mainstream human beings to absorb at this stage. There are too few people who can use the purified crystal cores of the fifth or sixth tier.
However, if he wants to buy the magic core in Xiao Xiao's hands again, then he will have to give more points, which is completely contrary to what he is worried about!
Seeing that Gu Chen didn't speak, but instead focused on driving, Xiao Xiao finally understood what Gu Chen was thinking about, and after a little thought, she gave an answer.
"Really, I can give you these magic cores first, but you have to guarantee that when all the points are in place, they must meet the current price, is this okay?"
This time it was Xiao Xiao who gave a concession. Nuclei are all hard work, and they seem to be treasured as collectibles. If she disposes of them like this now, she will probably suffer again when they wake up.
But this matter is beneficial to human beings, so Xiao Xiao is fighting the risk of being hated by the two little ones, and intends to create a win-win situation.
"I'll think about it again."
Gu Chen knew Xiao Xiao's kindness, but he really didn't know what to do about it.
Take it? Gu Chen really feels sorry for Xiao Xiao, because when the points have strong purchasing power, for the sake of the overall situation, he can't let Xiao Xiao consume these points as she wants, and if Xiao Xiao's statement is made, the points will be devalued after a period of time. That was so unfair to Xiao Xiao.
But if you don't take it, you will miss the golden age when human beings can rebuild civilization, so you have to take it if you don't take it.
So Gu Chen wanted to find a way to at least make up for Xiao Xiao's loss, otherwise it would be too unfair to her.
Xiao Xiao can naturally think of Gu Chen's concerns, because she has returned to normal, not like her head was short-circuited yesterday.
"This matter is good for human beings. It doesn't mean much loss to me. This deal is very cost-effective, so don't worry too much."
Xiao Xiao said to Gu Chen very calmly. Since the system came, Xiao Xiao became the savior chosen of earth.
As the saying goes, 'the stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility', Xiao Xiao has now stood at the top, so she naturally has to shoulder the responsibility of reviving mankind.
