[Arctic Cattail
Tier: Platinum
Type: Crop
Description: Can only grow in environnts below -100℃, each fruiting has a chance to produce one seed.
Old Pu: If you’re confident in maintaining its growth environnt, consider transplanting.
You aren’t seriously considering it, are you?
Your math skills are terrible!]
Li Zheng was about to move the Arctic Cattail when Old Pu’s words reminded him.
The Arctic Cattail Fruit only bears one, and it doesn’t have a seed. Even if its growth speed matches the Fla Branch, it only provides 5 more experience points than one round of Fla Flowers.
However, maintaining its growth environnt is much more troubleso than the Fla Branch.
Realizing this, Li Zheng pondered for two seconds and then uprooted the Arctic Cattail: "Damn, if I can’t plant it, I can at least sell it, right?"
Without waiting to move to the next room, Li Zheng directly filled in its information in the world channel, using today’s gaphone, and sent it out.
[000024 Li Zheng: [Arctic Cattail] A crop that can produce Platinum Level ability developnt items, only this one, hurry if you want to buy! Also: Looking for a large number of Ice and Fire Gene ability developnt items! From Silver to Platinum, I want them all!]
At this mont, Li Zheng wasn’t worried about exposing himself in channel 24.
He believed that the person behind Shinoda Chizuru had long since spread his whereabouts around.
Browsing through the world channel’s history, Li Zheng found few random chats, but many trade ssages like his own.
As for the quality...
Most were Silver, a few Gold, and Platinum Tier items were rare as hen’s teeth.
It was obvious, even though the ga had been running for almost ten days, many players were still too cautious to explore.
These days, Li Zheng had figured out a pattern.
Whenever a player explored alone, the "danger" they encountered actually fluctuated within a certain range of their strength.
This could be seen from the Phoenix Mountain Watch’s detected information, implying even the "death" marked black room had chances of survival if handled properly.
Even though Li Zheng encountered two outrageous rooms on the first day, the real danger was caused by his own reckless actions.
Had he explored properly, the risk those two rooms posed wouldn’t have been that high.
And when the novice period ended, the terminal had already corrected for this, restoring hyper-limit creatures to full strength, aning players wouldn’t encounter them prematurely if they weren’t on that level.
Finding nothing of interest on the world channel, Li Zheng stopped checking.
Not finding seeds of Arctic Cattail in the crevice, he looked into the distance, and Old Pu didn’t provide any hints about having seeds either.
Li Zheng didn’t mind, he rose with the small group, walking and dealing with private ssages.
Removing the restriction on private chats made more players contact him, but most were "internet beggars" trying to sweet-talk Li Zheng for benefits.
So, Li Zheng couldn’t figure out their intentions, for instance:
"[Grilled at] three pounds, trade for Arctic Cattail."
"I am the Lone Wolf Organization head, the Arctic Cattail has been requisitioned by us, you better cooperate."
"Bro, want to hook up? One Arctic Cattail for one ti."
"Hey there, online romance? I have a loli voice."
...
Li Zheng glanced at the loli voice avatar and silently added this bearded fellow to the permanent blacklist.
Of course, there were also proper trade inquiries, like previously contacted "Tang Qianzang," who sent a private ssage to inquire.
"Hey man, is the Arctic Cattail only a crop? Did you get the fruit above it as well? Are you selling?"
Li Zheng replied to him: "I ate the fruit, only selling the crop."
Tang Qianzang disappointed: "Oh, never mind then, I don’t have a Cultivation Dish."
Shortly after, Tang Qianzang sent another ssage: "If it’s just a crop, I suggest you don’t sell it, I haven’t heard anyone having a Cultivation Dish.
Soone tried selling crops in the world channel before, and no sales have been made; if you search the trade hall, crops are a di a dozen, they’re everywhere."
Everywhere?
Is it really that exaggerated?
Li Zheng, unconvinced, opened the trade hall, searched, and indeed found plenty of crops.
Mostly ordinary food crops like Luoshen Flowers and Honey Fruits.
Only a few were like Fla Branch, rare special crops of generally lower tiers, seldom seeing Gold.
Li Zheng was not bothered: "No problem, if soone wants it, I’ll sell; if not, I’ll keep it."
Tang Qianzang: "Keep it? Without a Cultivation Dish, it’s just rubbish occupying space."
Rubbish?
Have you ever seen Platinum level rubbish?
Li Zheng didn’t reply.
However, this exchange awakened Li Zheng.
Maybe, he should change his approach and sell sothing else.
Thinking, Li Zheng found Chu Xiao’s avatar, sending him a private ssage: "Do you have extra gaphones?"
The other party might have been busy, not replying promptly.
Li Zheng wasn’t in a rush, handling other private ssages, permanently blacklisting a few more cheeky players.
Besides Tang Qianzang, few seriously inquired about Arctic Cattail, though so had ability developnt items, asking what price Li Zheng would offer.
"Why are they all Silver Level?"
Li Zheng squinted; only eight players were willing to sell developnt items, all of Silver Level, generally low in value.
Understandable, for ordinary players, Silver Level might be unappealing, while Gold Level’s success rate was sufficient for their own use.
Excluding three players asking too much, Li Zheng traded with five remaining players using one Bronze and one Silver Active Core.
After trading, he consud all five items imdiately, gaining another 75 experience points.
At this mont, Chu Xiao finally replied.
"How many do you want?"
Look at how this guy talks.
Others have a daily limit of one gaphone, but for him, he casually asks how many you want.
Are gaphones like cabbages to you?
Li Zheng didn’t inquire how the other obtained extra gaphones, simply said: "One is enough, na a price."
"It’s just a little thing, I can give it to you for free."
Chu Xiao was straightforward, directly sending Li Zheng an item, with a note in the seller’s ssage: Take it, if it makes you feel bad, just give a Gold Level Earth Elent developnt item soday.
[gaphone
Tier: Gold
Type: Consumable
Description: Can substitute for a "gaphone" to send ssages on the world channel, use limit five per person daily.
Used: 0/5]
The "gaphone" appeared as a loudspeaker, and its usage was simple: record the ssage to be sent and then replay.
Li Zheng quickly figured it out and sent out another new world channel ssage.
[000024 Li Zheng: Selling equipnt [Advanced Soilless Cultivation Dish], only ten units available, first co, first served!]
As soon as this ssage went out, the world channel was in an uproar because of Li Zheng.
Most notably, the private ssage system exploded, instantly reaching 999 .
