    【Environmental Pollution-07】

    The spectacular orange rain continued for several minutes. Liu Zhaoqing's gauze could no longer bear the weight of the oranges and fell to the ground. Countless oranges rolled around in the living room. Also exciting.

    Ke Shaobin is the happiest. He likes sweet and sour tastes since he was a child. If he can eat all-you-can-eat oranges every day in the following days, he will feel no problem if he insists on it for 14 days.

    Yue Xingwen looked at the oranges that were rolling all over the floor, and said helplessly, "Help me, put these oranges away."

    Liu Zhaoqing said with a headache, "What do you wear with so many oranges?"

    Lan Yarong's mind flashed, and she said, "Let's weave some wooden frames with the vines of Manluo, and put the oranges in them."

    Lin Manluo stepped forward and said, "This method is good, I'll try it."

    She raised her right hand, and immediately a vine sprang out from her fingertips like a spirit snake. The ten-meter-long vines circled and entangled in place, quickly forming a "wooden frame" shape.

    Lin Manluo made several wooden frames in a row and placed them next to them, Yue Xingwen said: "Well, pick up a lot of fresh and whole oranges and put them in the wooden frame. If it broke when it fell, just eat it. ."

    The oranges are all fresh, but some of them will inevitably break their skins when they are dropped. The broken pieces can't be taken out and sold, so that you can eat them yourself.

    While picking up the oranges, everyone picked out the broken ones and ate them, and most of them ate them with relish.

    Quickly, Ke Shaobin discovered a pattern: "These oranges look exactly the same?"

    Yue Xingwen picked up a few oranges and compared them, and said, "The skills you put into the rainstorm will be copied and enlarged. All the oranges are copies of the first one, and they look just as normal."

    Ke Shaobin suddenly thought: "Can a heavy rain replicate food? We bought compressed biscuits in the supermarket yesterday. If the biscuits are thrown into the rain, it will be good for another biscuit rain."

    Xingwen's rainstorm can replicate food, throw a box of biscuits into it, and get thousands of biscuits. The rainstorm is only cold for 1 hour. If you keep replicating this way, don't live for 14 days, and it's not a big problem to live for 14 years.

    Seeing Ke Shaobin's eager eyes, Yue Xingwen smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "I think too much! Heavy rain can only copy library skills, not other items, otherwise, if I throw it in, it will rain a lot. A pile of Ke Shaobin? Thousands of Ke Shaobin fell from the sky?"

    Ke Shaobin imagined the scene, but no goose bumps appeared on his back. He coughed and said, "I'm just bored to think about it." He paused and looked at the small picture standing obediently in the corner, his eyes lit up: "Copy skills, right? Then my small picture can be copied? "

    Xiaotu, who heard his voice, immediately said in a crisp mechanical voice: "Master, no."

    Ke Shaobin looked at it curiously: "Why not?"

    Xiaotu recognized: "The radar of the robot will affect each other. If many small pictures are copied, the small pictures will not be able to receive the correct signal. Once the system is 'disordered', it will crash."

    Ke Shaobin adjusted his glasses: "Oh, I just asked out of curiosity, don't worry, the master has enough."

    Hearing this, Yue Xingwen couldn't help but say: "Xiaotu's intelligence is getting more and more advanced? Can you have a daily conversation?"

    Ke Shaobin said: "Yes, I haven't upgraded it recently, but I found that every time we clear a floor of the academy, the intelligence level of Xiaotu will increase, and the height will also grow by 2 cm. Its skills are restored. The ones that are, but, it can now tell me good morning and good night every day, and can chat with me, it feels as if I have become a sperm."

    Xiaotu said: "Master, I have not become fine, I have only become smart."

    Teammates: "..."

    This robot raised by Ke Shaobin is also strange.

    In a blink of an eye, the big man has packed up the oranges.

    The temperature in the basement was low, and these oranges wouldn't go bad after a few days. Qin "Lu" directly changed the plate, and all the oranges were replaced by Zhang Xiaonian's newly dug underground warehouse.

    Zhang Xiaonian, who had just packed up the excavator, was stunned: "Senior sister, where are so many... oranges?"

    Qin "Lu" smiled and said, "Xingwen just had a rain of oranges, do you want to eat a few?"

    Zhang Xiaonian took a few oranges with a dazed expression, and when he returned to his residence, he had already packed the living room full of water, Yue Xingwen said: "Eat first, and then discuss whether to go out to make money next time. ."

    The breakfast is simple, a few oranges per person, a packet of biscuits, and a bottle of distilled water. Although it is not rich, compared with the inhabitants of this world, what they eat is a feast for the New Year.

    After eating, everyone sat on the wooden pier and began to discuss.

    Jiang Pingce said: "The risk of selling water is relatively high. Water resources are controlled resources in this world, and we can't explain where so much water comes from. Moreover, the residents here are very wary, and they may not believe that the water is safe and harmless. ."

    Xin Yan said: "We don't have a bucket as a container, and we use distilled bottled water for sale. First, these glass bottles are not easy to carry, and secondly, it is difficult to explain where these strange large stills come from."

    Yue Xingwen nodded: "Well, if we want to sell water, we have to ask the residents here to get some empty buckets, fill them with water they usually use, and then buy them, they won't be so wary. ."

    Ke Shaobin suggested: "How about we go to sell oranges first? Oranges are not regulated, and all fruits in this world are expensive. An apple costs 200. We pretend to be a fruit farmer and go to the gate of the community to sell fruit, even if we are caught by the city management. If we find it, we can run away in time."

    Yue Xingwen was silent for a moment, then looked at Ke Shaobin and said, "Do you remember what fruits were in the supermarket yesterday?"

    Ke Shaobin immediately said, "Grapes, apples, watermelons, pears, bananas." He could remember what he ate, and after that, he realized something was wrong: "No oranges?!"

    "Yes, I also remember that there are no oranges for sale in the supermarket." Yue Xingwen guessed, "In this world, the fruit like oranges has never been cultivated at all. The residents here do not know it, and naturally they cannot sell high prices. I don’t know the taste of this fruit, and I don’t dare to rashly spend money to try it.”

    If in the real world, someone pushes a cart to sell a fruit they have never seen before, many people may be curious and buy it back to try it.

    But the residents of this world can only barely solve the problem of food and clothing. They are accustomed to monotonous recipes since childhood. They should not have so much spare money to buy unfamiliar fruits. Unless the price is low, no one will be willing to try.

    Yue Xing Wen said: "If the price of oranges is like the fruit sold in the supermarket, and one sells dozens or hundreds, I guess we can set up a stall all day and can't sell even one. It is similar to the bread and biscuits they eat every day. Maybe someone will be willing to buy it and try it.”

    Things that have never been seen are too expensive to sell, and no one is willing to pay. After thinking about it carefully, I feel that Xingwen's "low price strategy" is more reliable. If the price is reasonable, it is not a loss to buy one and try it.

    Qin "Lu" said: "I just moved several large boxes of oranges to the warehouse by changing the position of the plate. It is roughly estimated that there are more than 1,000 oranges in this batch of well-preserved oranges. Heavy, still sell by one?"

    Ke Shaobin nodded in agreement: "It makes sense, if an orange is sold for 1 yuan, a thousand pieces will be sold for a thousand yuan. Anyway, Xingwen can make 9 oranges per course, and there is no limit to the rainstorm, so we still Can it rain eight oranges?"

    The premise "skill" of rainstorm copying, the copied things can't be copied again, it will become an infinite loop. So, in theory, they still have 8 chances to replicate the orange.

    Yue Xingwen looked at Jiang Pingce and asked the other party's opinion: "1 yuan per piece, do you think this price is appropriate?"

    In the real world, 1 yuan an orange is actually more expensive. In reality, it is sold by jin. However, the fruits in this world are rare items, an apple can be sold for 200, and a grape can be sold for 50! Oranges are only sold for 1 yuan, which is already a big sale, which is too conscientious.

    Jiang Pingce said: "So, let's make small profits but quick turnover. Sell a few more batches and earn a few thousand yuan, enough for us to live 14 days in this world without food and clothing."

    The price of this world, a pack of compressed biscuits is priced at 3.5 yuan. After eating compressed biscuits in the morning, found that the biscuits were not the same as what they usually eat. Yue Xingwen was full after eating only half a pack. It should have been processed by technology and compressed into a lot of energy.

    Ordinary one or three people eat 2 packs of biscuits a day, and the daily living cost is 21 yuan. Drinking water is uniformly controlled by the "government" and distributed by court. 10 liters a week does not need to spend money, and only spend money to buy excess water. In this way, 600 yuan a month is enough for one or three people to live.

    People's consumption level and consumption desire-expectation are both low, and people in Oita have the thinking of "if they can eat enough", they are not picky eaters, and they have never experienced any "food". to quality of life? People in this world have been living in harsh environments since they were young. It is already difficult to live. To improve the quality of life, they don't even dare to think about it.

    However, 1 yuan to buy a fresh fruit to go back and try, it is still affordable.

    Yue Xingwen considered for a moment and made a decision: "Well, today we will go in batches. In the morning, 6 people will go to sell oranges, and the rest will stay and earn some pocket money first; in the afternoon, the other 6 people will buy water buckets. , the other 6 rest. Anyone who wants to sell oranges should sign up."

    Qin "Lu" raised his hand and said, "I'll go. I'll use my skills to help move the oranges without any effort."

    Ke Shaobin said positively: "I'll go too, the small map will use the navigation to record the route."

    Zhuo Feng and Liu Zhaoqing looked at each other and raised their hands at the same time. Zhuo Feng said: "I'm going with Senior Brother Liu. In the event of danger, I still have the attack skills of electricity and gravity to protect the retreat."

    Liu Zhaoqing said: "When brushing the dungeon, you must bring the "milk" mother, you know."

    Lin Manluo smiled and glanced at Jiang Pingce, and said, "If Xingwen goes, Pingce will definitely go too, right?"

    Jiang Pingce nodded calmly: "Yes."

    Lin Manluo said, "Then Xingwen, Pingce, 'Lu', 'Lu', Xiao Ke, Zhuo Feng and Senior Brother Liu, the 6 of us will leave in the morning, and the remaining 6 of us will change shifts in the afternoon?"

    Teammates said there was no problem.

    Jiang Pingce turned around to find the mask he had used yesterday, and handed it to Yue Xingwen: "Put it on, and blow sand on your face when you go out."

    Yue Xingwen took the mask and put it on, and pointed to Jiang Pingce's neat hair: "What about the hair, don't you care?"

    Liu Zhaoqing said, "We didn't buy a headscarf and protective clothing yesterday, so why don't we wrap our hair with gauze first?"

    Everyone: "..."

    Then they become hospital fugitives, right?

    One by one, with gauze on their heads, as if someone had broken their heads, they would definitely run away when they saw them, and would anyone dare to buy things from them?

    Yue Xingwen coughed lightly, "touched" his nose and said, "Senior brother, although our 183 research group has always been abnormal, we won't sell an orange, making it like a crowd fighting..."
