That amount could last over three hundred days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thing was a good item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after hearing the price, many people shook their heads and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only a fool would trade a year's worth of rations for this thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, you all... don't leave! If you buy in bulk, we can negotiate a bit on the price!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seriously, just one hundred kilograms, is it really that expensive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the crowd slowly disperse, the stall owner was clearly getting anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was true that the Heart Engine was a new gadget, and this was their first time selling it. The original plan was to sell it for one hundred kilograms of rice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But judging by the reaction, it was obviously priced too high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the meatworms, these were both first-time transactions with no reference standard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were a Wonder, everyone would at least have a baseline in mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, several Wonders had already been traded in this market before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But items like meatworms and the Heart Engine were being seen for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one had used them or even seen them before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, the current quoted prices were somewhat awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye, watching the whole process from the side, began to understand the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This market had probably not been open for very long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the fact that many items here were new, a complete trading system had yet to be established.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, many people were unsure how to accurately value the things in their possession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye's mischievous ideas started bubbling up again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed there were profits to be made in this market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn't need the Heart Engine himself, Chu Che and the Pink-haired Girl obviously did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, one hundred kilograms is outrageous! For a single person, one hundred kilograms eaten frugally could last a whole year!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye stepped forward and suddenly spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What followed was Chen Ye employing his old tricks once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Chen Ye offered ten kilograms of rice in exchange,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the man opposite him flew into a rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, Chen Ye walked away cursing and grumbling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man's face was also livid with anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Chen Ye hadn't accidentally let slip that he was also Sequence 3, a fight would probably have broken out on the spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye's actions were certainly not out of sheer boredom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He naturally had his own plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Chen Ye saw Chu Che and his group meandering their way onto March Street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Iron Lion spotted Chen Ye, he was happily about to wave and greet him, but the Pink-haired Girl grabbed his arm and stopped him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the relationship between Chen Ye and Chu Che's group wasn't hard to figure out,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the old saying still applied: the later it was exposed, the better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Oasis definitely had major problems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having someone like Chen Ye lurking in the shadows was far better than having everyone out in the open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye also pretended not to know Chu Che and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When passing by the stall selling meatworms, the cold, aloof Knife Sharpener Sequence young man gave Chen Ye a frigid glare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye's appearance had completely shattered his confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he had no idea how to sell his meatworms anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Chen Ye and Chu Che passed each other,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye raised an eyebrow and winked at Chu Che.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che understood immediately. After casually wandering around for a bit, he told the Pink-haired Girl and the others that he needed to use the restroom and asked them to wait for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he slowly followed behind Chen Ye, walking into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye naturally knew Chu Che was following him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked left and right, found a small alley, and walked into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che also glanced around, and seeing no one paying attention, followed Chen Ye into the alley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye recounted his two recent, seemingly pointless experiences to Chu Che.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che's eyes grew wider and wider as he listened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing it all, Captain Chu gave Chen Ye a thumbs-up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yezi, when it comes to having no conscience, you really take the cake!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye's face darkened!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che quickly stopped himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, I know what to do now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Chu Che returned to March Street, there was a new glint of confidence in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ye left March Street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Chu Che and his group were just starting their browsing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Chu Che had Ding Dong lure Iron Lion away to another area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no helping it; Iron Lion was too straightforward. He wasn't suited for this kind of situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che quietly explained to the Pink-haired Girl what Chen Ye had done. Her beautiful eyes also widened in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She understood without Chu Che having to spell it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She understood exactly how she needed to cooperate later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che put on an act and approached the stall selling meatworms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold, aloof Knife Sharpener young man sized up Chu Che and the Pink-haired Girl with his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, what is this thing? It looks disgusting!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words came from the Pink-haired Girl, playing the role of the antagonist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Knife Sharpener wasn't in a good mood at the moment. Chen Ye's earlier appearance had already disrupted his mental state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He originally thought meatworms would be essential for migration, but while many people inquired about the price, few made offers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only person who could produce Ideal Grain Seeds was only willing to offer a single potato. That was practically an insult to one's intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the young Knife Sharpener was starting to doubt if his pricing was too high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, why hadn't he been able to sell them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man had already decided that if someone made a reasonable offer, selling wouldn't be out of the question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he had calmed his emotions, he saw that detestable person again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man instantly recalled the scene from earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His recently settled mood was stirred up once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before his anger could even subside, a pretty young girl said his meatworms looked ugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, the young man felt irritated again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che stepped in to play the good cop: \"Don't talk nonsense. This thing looks extraordinary at a glance; it must be a good item.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young man, what is this thing? How are you selling it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che's words improved the young man's expression a bit. He tapped the cardboard with his toy knife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che and the Pink-haired Girl both looked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading it, they subtly exchanged a glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As teammates, they naturally understood what the other was thinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pink-haired Girl spoke up again: \"Squad Leader Chu, these worms might be good, but they're too disgusting, and they can't reproduce. They're useless. Let's go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They're far worse than our potatoes and lettuce!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we grow our potatoes and lettuce a bit longer, the whole team won't have to worry...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the Pink-haired Girl could finish, Chu Che hurriedly interrupted: \"Stop talking nonsense!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then cautiously looked around, clearly afraid others might overhear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man's eyes lit up slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Che said with a somewhat apologetic tone: \"Young man, don't mind her. She's just a kid who doesn't know any better, talking nonsense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Chu Che prepared to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, the young man reached out and grabbed the hem of Chu Che's clothes...\u003C\u002Fp>",1324,"2026-05-30T15:16:55.251Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","611d08a9f71981b86b61a5bedadb8b8ae5fff830671fdeeb4f69c9d31824b9ab","sequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--chapter-320","sequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--chapter-318",465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsequence-highway-survival-i-upgrade-supplies-in--cover.jpg"]
