159 Nonsense, You're Clearly a Little Girl

After leaving Zuo Mingdong's workplace, Du Yue and He Xing went home without going anywhere. Although they were not far from home, they still saw a scene that made them sigh. Some people were walking in groups. It was unknown if they were going to work or had already finished work. Each of them had wrapped themselves up in layers and layers, but none of them were really warm.

As they walked on the road, everyone was hunched over and kept rubbing their hands on their arms to warm themselves up. However, it was no use. All the skin that was exposed was frostbitten. These people were all living in the group dormitory. The base provided them with food and a place to live, but they could not get those for free. Usually, they had to work according to the requirements of the base.

Although Du Yue did not know the details of the work they did, she knew that the cold weather would make it unbearable no matter what job it was. However, what could they do even if they were suffering? Except for the elderly and the children who did not have the ability to work, the young and middle-aged people in the base had to work. If they just lay in bed every day, waiting for the base to give them food, the base would not be able to sustain this arrangement even if they had mountains of gold and silver.

Du Yue only took a few glances before she retracted her gaze. Even though she had been reborn, she was still an ordinary personnot a God who could save the world. The only thing she could do was not to fight for supplies with these poor people. She could just stay at home and live her life well. Occasionally, she would go out to hunt for some prey or to plant more frosty snow fruits.

These people could not afford wild boar meat, but the base would occasionally give them some meat so that they would have enough calories to live and work. The frosty snow fruits would also be planted in large quantities soon. The growth cycle of these fruits was also short. After a period of time, everyone's vitamin deficiency problem would be solved.

Without the issue of vitamin deficiency, people's physical fitness would also improve, and their snow blindness would not be as serious as before. Also, they would no longer have to suffer from constipation.

Du Yue sighed and felt a little sad. She was only an ordinary person, and this was all she could do. Du Yue turned to look at He Xing. Since we have nothing to do, let's plant some more frosty snow fruits! When they're ripe, we won't sell them to the base anymore. We'll sell them to the people in the base and give them a discount.

He Xing had no idea why Du Yue would suddenly have such a plan, but he had always listened to her and had no objections. Alright! Then let's plant them!

Du Yue was relieved to hear He Xing's agreement. We've known each other for so long, but I feel like the word you've said the most is 'alright'!

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

Because you have your own considerations when making a decision. I'll only listen to you and support you, He Xing replied with a calm expression.

Du Yue's eyes curved into crescents when she heard that. Since you trust me so much, I'll take care of you from now on!

Nonsense, you're clearly just a little girl.

Zuo Mingdong was a little puzzled when he heard them. Didn't you say that you'd keep the frosty snow fruits for yourself if you were to plant them again? The price the base will offer you for the fruits then is much lower than before. It's only one contribution point for five. You two might as well just keep the fruits for yourselves.

Du Yue smiled and said, Captain Zuo, we're not selling them to the base. We just want to ask you for a favor. Although the price of frosty snow fruits will become much cheaper, the elderly, the children, and those living in the dormitories in the base still won't be able to afford them. That's why we want to sell the fruits to them. We'll only charge one contribution point for ten fruits. Because we won't have many, each person is limited to ten fruits. No one else is allowed to buy on their behalf. We're not from the base, so it's not convenient for us to handle this ourselves. Hence, we want to ask you to get someone to deliver the fruits to the buyers.

Zuo Mingdong looked at Du Yue's indifferent face, and his surprised pupils shook violently. There were at least 10,000 fruits in their car. Even if the base couldn't buy the fruits at the same price as before, they could still sell another 10,000 fruits for 2,000 to 3,000 contribution points. However, Du Yue was going to lower the price by half and sell it to the elderly, children, and those who live in the dormitory. In that case, they would earn more than 1,000 fewer contribution points with a full car of frosty snow fruits, which was no different from giving them away for free.

By the time Du Yue and He Xing produced the second batch of frosty snow fruits, the fruits had already been promoted in the base. The price was also much cheaper than before. Now, one contribution point could buy three fruits. Basically, everyone could afford to eat them. Du Yue and He Xing drove to look for Zuo Mingdong again.
