Chapter 4: Liu Bei: Isn't it supposed to be tools for eating?

Bai Yuekui sized up Liu Bei and found that the man had distinct facial features and was quite good-looking—well, his ears were a bit big.

"You are our captain? What did you bring this time?"

Liu Bei looked at the two of them.

"And you?"

Bai Yuekui opened her bag.

"I brought five kilograms of gold. This stuff is hard currency almost everywhere."

Hua Hua Mulan also said calmly,

"Same as what I thought, I also brought gold."

Both of them looked at Liu Bei, wanting to see what he brought.

Liu Bei laughed.

"I'm not a rich woman like you two, so I just brought some things to eat."

He opened the burlap sack and let them see.

"o(╯□╰)o"

Bai Yuekui was stunned; it really was things to eat!

Inside the sack were several pounds of potatoes, some of which were already turning green and starting to sprout!

Hua Hua Mulan put her hand to her forehead.

"Is this the leftovers from your house?"

She and Bai Yuekui exchanged a look; this captain seemed very unreliable!

The Xia Kingdom's live broadcast room exploded.

"It's over, such an unreliable captain!"

"Although I'll be implicated, I still laughed out loud. The guy has talent!"

"If there was even a little bit of meat at home, he wouldn't have brought potatoes."

"I would have brought a few packs of pickled mustard greens; maybe the ancients would like them!"

"I would have brought morphine so the Emperor couldn't leave me!"

"It seems the Xia Kingdom can only rely on Bai Yuekui and Hua Mulan!"

The live broadcast rooms of other countries also laughed uncontrollably.

"The Xia Kingdom's captain is so talented; he carried the potatoes left over at home to the game world!"

"Maybe they couldn't even afford a meal at home anymore."

"If a robber broke into his house, they'd probably cry and leave a few hundred bucks!"

"The Xia Kingdom is finished!"

"Look at the US team; they brought gems and gold, so they'll soon have starting capital."

"Miyamoto Musashi and the others brought the famous samurai sword Kiku-ichimonji Norimune; they can use it themselves or offer it up!"

Soon,

the voice of the World Will echoed throughout the world.

【According to system analysis, the item with the highest value brought by a participant is: eight pounds of potatoes that are starting to sprout!】

【Ding, Xia Kingdom participant Liu Bei has the highest score, specially rewarding the Xia Kingdom with double the grain production this year!】

The whole world exploded.

"What?!"

"Did the world system make a mistake?"

"I have a few pounds of sweet potatoes at home; maybe I could have won a prize too!"

"I can't figure it out. Is the guy a relative of the world system?"

"Could it be that there are no potatoes in the Three Kingdoms?" someone hit the nail on the head.

【Ding, in the Three Kingdoms, wars are constant, the climate is harsh, people are displaced, and grain production has plummeted. Potatoes have a yield of 5,000 pounds per acre and can serve as a staple food substitute!】

The system provided an explanation.

The bullet comments in the broadcast room increased.

"Damn, forgive me, I was too hasty!"

"Is the guy a hidden big shot?"

"Whether it's luck or strength remains to be seen."

Bai Yuekui and Hua Mulan's faces turned a bit red; they didn't expect that they were the ones who looked like clowns.

"Captain, I didn't expect you to be so far-sighted!"

Bai Yuekui sighed.

"How did I not think of it? Ancient wars are not just about soldiers, but also logistics. If soldiers are hungry, they will collapse in a few days!"

Liu Bei shrugged.

"Believe it or not, I really only had potatoes at home to bring."

Hua Hua Mulan... invisible showing off is even more terrifying!

【Ding, the samurai sword carried by Sakura Country participant Miyamoto Musashi exceeds the forging level of that time. The sword is confiscated, and furthermore, Sakura Country's crop production this year is halved!】

【Miyamoto Musashi made a common-sense error; their sword-forging technology came from the Tang Dynasty of the Xia Kingdom...】

Everyone was in an uproar again; they didn't expect this result.

Soon, a large touch screen appeared in the small dark room.

【Participants, below are the factions you can choose from. Now, I will introduce them one by one.】

【Grand General He Jin, brother of Empress He, controls the capital and holds absolute power in the court...】

【The Ten Eunuchs, Zhang Rang and others, eunuchs whom the Emperor trusts and calls 'Father', holding part of the military power...】

【Xiliang Ma Teng, descendant of General Ma Yuan, brave and skilled in battle...】

【After participants choose these powerful factions, they will become generals or strategists under the faction based on their personal circumstances.】

Liu Bei continued to look down.

【By choosing the following weak factions, the captain can become the lord of that faction, and the national destiny reward will be multiplied several times!】

【Jibei Chancellor Bao Xin...】

【Guangling Administrator Zhang Chao...】

【Shangdang Administrator Zhang Yang...】

The last one,
