Chapter 36 The Possibility of Making Money (Part 4)

But in this world now, how much clean food was left?The entire world—the soil, the water, and even the air—was infected with the mutagenic virus. Anything that grew from this earth, drank this water, or ate this tainted grain was bound to mutate.

To grow normal food?

Up until now, Shin Woncheon had only heard rumors on the broadcast that the largest re

And it wasn't just Ra Jinho—Gang Yuwon's father was also on the verge of turning into a zombie.

Though the normal vegetables he was requesting wouldn't be enough to cure them, even a small improvement, or even just a delay in their worsening condition, would be worth it.

But would the big boss be willing to trade such precious things with him?

Shin Woncheon didn't hold much hope.

Kim Haru, who had been racking his brain for ideas on what he could sell, suddenly heard Shin Woncheon's request.

He looked at the thirty little sprouts growing in the ground and had an epiphany.

Ah, so this must be part of the system's arrangement, meant to encourage the trade of crops or something. It turns out that farming games, just like the combat games he'd played, had plot-driven events!

Kim Haru automatically rationalized Shin Woncheon's request.

Otherwise, it didn't make sense—according to the original memories he'd inherited, people in the post-apocalyptic world still had food. In fact, most of them ate meat regularly. Why would they be drooling over his tiny, sprouting seedlings?

He had only planted the seeds yesterday; nothing had matured yet, so how could they be worth that much?

The mission in the system task bar for the first planting hadn't been marked as completed, so it seemed like he needed to wait for the seeds to mature and be harvested to finish the quest. And if he was going to trade with Shin Woncheon and the others, it would be better to wait until the crops had grown to decide on a price.

Shin Woncheon and his two teammates immediately grew excited!

From what the boss had said, trading with them once the crops matured wasn't just a wild dream! Oh, my god! Meeting this person had been the luckiest break of their lives!
