Chapter 275: Universal Planting System (14)
Back home, Xie Yang reheated the braised offal in the pot, selected some Braised Large Intestine, Braised Pork Liver, Braised Pork Stomach, and Braised Pork Lung, and after cutting them into segments or slices, assembled a portion of Assorted Braised Dishes.
The weight was exactly two catties; if sold, the price would be around 100 Star Coins, and ten times that would be 1000 Star Coins.
This time it didn't go through the online shop, but was a direct transaction of payment and delivery, so no service fee was deducted, but she had to handle the shipping herself.
There was only one order, so it was simple.
Xie Yang clicked to ship on her end, and the Star Coin balance on the other side increased by 1000.
Now she had the money to rent a Flying Vehicle!
Xie Yang expressed her sincere gratitude to this VIP Customer!
She sent him an extra portion of Clear Stewed Pork Trotters with broth.
Unexpectedly, just after the Clear Stewed Pork Trotters were sent out, her Star Coin account increased by another 1000.
Xie Yang: "..."
No, that was a free gift.
"Mommy! Zai Zai is up!"
Xie Yang tried to issue a refund but failed, so she let it be; she would compensate the other party when she had the chance later!
She picked up Zai Zai, took him to wash up, and had breakfast after washing.
It was too much to chew meat early in the morning, so the mother and son each had a cup of Nutrient Solution.
Although the little guy wanted to chew meat more, he also liked the sweet and sour Children's Nutrient Solution, holding the cup and drinking it with satisfaction.
After eating and drinking their fill, the mother and son set off for the rental agency.
Meanwhile, in a high-end shelter in Section 1 of District 1 on Garbage Star, Xing Lan stood with his arms crossed, coldly eyeing his nephew who was pouting and wringing his hands with a look of defiance.
"You're quite capable, Yu Xiaopang! Acting like a big shot on the Star Net at such a young age, and even buying out someone's shop food for ten times the Star Coins? Who taught you that?"
"No, no one taught me... I just thought it was delicious... but I was afraid of, of not being able to grab it, so I did that..."
Yu Xiaopang was afraid his stern uncle would throw him back to Yilan Star; he had finally convinced his mom and dad to come to Garbage Star for summer vacation, and he didn't want to be packed up and thrown back so soon.
So he grabbed his uncle's thigh, looked up, and begged: "Uncle, Uncle, I know I was wrong! But it really is delicious! If you don't believe me, try it..."
Xing Lan raised an eyebrow, not buying it.
The little fatty pouted and muttered: "But, it really is delicious..."
After his uncle fell asleep last night, he snuck onto the Star Net, originally intending to browse his favorite Mecha shop, but was attracted by a rich, savory aroma.
Seeing many people crowding a shop to snatch up the food being listed, he also joined the trend and bought a portion.
But he only managed to buy a bowl of soup; when he wanted to buy some salt-baked sheep trotters or cow trotters to try, they were already sold out.
He took a sip of the soup and couldn't fall asleep again.
Waaah! He had never eaten anything this delicious in his life. (His uncle: Your life has only been six years?)
Doesn't matter!
He still wanted to eat!
But he didn't know when the shopkeeper would list more.
So he copied his mother's shopping style—when encountering something he really liked and wanted, he would offer eight or ten times the price to buy out the whole stock.
He succeeded!
But he didn't expect his uncle to be this angry.
In order not to be packed up and sent back to Yilan Star, Yu Xiaopang honestly hugged his uncle's thigh and admitted his mistake: "Okay, I know I was wrong! Uncle, please forgive me! I promise I won't sneakily use your Star Net account ever again!"
Xing Lan looked down at him: "Just not sneakily using mine?"
"Not sneakily using anyone's!"
Xing Lan nodded: "I'll wait and see."
"Then Uncle, can I..."
"Can what? Go back to your room and do your homework!"
"!!!"
Ugh! After signing a bunch of unequal treaties, in the end, not only did he not get a bite of good food, but he was also told to do homework?
"Uncle, you're a big demon king! Hmph!"
"..."
Xing Lan raised an eyebrow; he was a big demon king already?
"From now on, no sleeping in, and you'll do two hours of resistance training with me every day; this body of yours needs to lose some weight."
"..."
The little fatty, who hadn't managed to secure the food and had instead lost some old benefits, went back to his room crying to finish his summer homework.
Xing Lan's indifferent gaze fell upon the two small insulated Express Boxes.
Was this the natural food his nephew spent 2000 Star Coins on, which was supposedly so delicious it would make one's eyebrows fly off?
Pfft!
Only enough to fool a child!
He casually opened the Express Box; as soon as the box opened a crack, his nose was instantly enveloped by an extremely overbearing yet unusually pleasant aroma.
This was an aroma he had never smelled before.
But it was unexpectedly pleasant.
Even he, who usually had strong self-control, couldn't help but twitch his nostrils slightly.
He reached out to take out the braised platter, stared at the Assorted Braised Dishes emitting the overbearing aroma for a few seconds, and, as if possessed, picked up a piece of large intestine and put it into his mouth.
"So fragrant! So fragrant! Uncle, what is that that smells so good!"
The little nephew's boisterous shouting came from upstairs.
Xing Lan quickly placed the braised food platter into the Express Box, closed the lid, and turned to enter his room with an Express Box in each hand.
Once the door was closed, it cut off all the scents.
Yu Xiaopang ran downstairs, his little nose twitching as he sniffed the fragrance in the air, and shouted angrily while clenching his little fists:
"Ahhh! Bad uncle! It must be you who ate the peerless delicacy I bought!"
Inside the master bedroom, separated by a door, Xing Lan, who had been called a bad uncle, raised his eyebrows and continued to calmly taste the peerless delicacy his little nephew spoke of.
Although he could not distinguish what these were made of, it did not affect the enjoyment of his taste buds.
He tasted a round of every kind of braised food, and finally picked up the Clear Stewed Pork Trotters soup to take a sip.
The fresh and savory taste made him narrow his eyes involuntarily.
For the first time, he felt that his little nephew staying up late and secretly logging into his Star Net to buy random things was not such a troublesome matter.
……
"Tingting! Are you and your mom going to the waste dump too? My mom and I are going too!"
Passing by Xiya's house, Xie Yang and her daughter met the lively and cute Xiya, who was chattering away about his Task for the day:
"My mom promised me that as long as I scavenge enough for 10 Star Coins, she will buy me a very, very fragrant Nutrient Solution!"
Xie Ting asked curiously: "What kind of Nutrient Solution is that? Is it delicious? Is it even better than the sweet and sour Nutrient Solution?"
"Of course it is!" Xiya shook his head proudly, as if he had already tasted it.
At this moment, Xiya Ma drove out in a Flying Vehicle and invited Xie Yang and her daughter to come up and sit.
Xie Yang had anticipated that they might run into them, so she had prepared a portion of Yandianzhutitang and Big Bone Soup in advance, storing them in the Sub-system Space.
After boarding the Flying Vehicle, she took them out under the guise of using her backpack.
As soon as the two portions of food were taken out, a food aroma distinct from Nutrient Solution instantly filled the cramped space of the Flying Vehicle.
"Wow—"
Smelling this fragrance, Xiya widened his eyes in surprise, then sniffed again and nodded vigorously; it was this smell!
But smelling it carefully, it also seemed a little bit different!
Forget it!
This fragrance also smelled very good!
Anyway, it smelled much better than the weird-tasting Nutrient Solution they drank at home!
"Tingting's mom, what is this? Is it something delicious?"
Xiya swallowed his saliva, his little nose twitching rapidly, while his left claw desperately pressed down on his disobedient right claw that wanted to reach out and grab the food.
Wuwu! Someone help him! He could barely hold his claws down anymore!
