NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 58: First Sale and a New Discovery (Part 1)
Hwa Jian seemed a bit uneasy.
Kim Haru took it with a nod of thanks and began weighing the vegetables for his first customer.
Regardless of whether he would eventually decide to raise his prices, he had already quoted the price to his first customer, so it wasn't worth changing now. He could consider it a special discount for the first sale.
Hwa Jian had brought 135 crystal cores, enough to buy over six pounds of cabbage. Kim Haru weighed the cabbage, which turned out to be exactly six pounds, leaving Hwa Jian with fifteen crystal cores to spare.
"Six pounds, 120," Haru said, showing Hwa Jian the number on the scale. Then he picked up the cabbage and handed it over, waiting for the crystal cores in exchange.
Hwa Jian hadn't expected to get an entire large cabbage and was overjoyed!
However, looking at the massive cabbage in front of him, and then at the young man selling the vegetables with an expressionless face, Hwa Jian finally couldn't hold back.
"At this price, you're practically giving the cabbage away at a loss."
Kim Haru finally realized what had been bothering him.
In this world, it has become impossible to artificially grow normal vegetables or raise healthy animals!
Thinking about his farming system, he began to grasp just how overpowered the system really was! If this had happened a few years ago, during his chuinbyo era, he would have undoubtedly believed that he had been transmigrated to this world to save it—as its destined savior.
Unfortunately, his current self had no such grand delusions. He didn't feel like he had the ability to shoulder the fate of the entire world. Right now, all he wanted was to live a comfortable life, with decent material conditions. And if possible, it would be great to have the internet restored too.
God only knows how these past few days had been for a socially anxious homebody like him. His daily routine was already starting to resemble that of an elderly person!
Suddenly, all sorts of thoughts about "a man with a treasure is a good target for evil people" flooded Haru's mind.
Before he could figure out whether he should lay low or cooperate with the authorities, he suddenly heard the system notification chime in.
[ Ding! Congratulations on achieving the <
On the virtual screen that only he could see, a new icon for the [Store] had appeared. Curious, he tapped on it, and a neatly organized interface popped up, displaying a wide range of items.
Under the "Seeds" category, there were seeds for all sorts of crops—common, rare, cheap, expensive—everything imaginable.
However, the only seeds that were currently unlocked and available were cabbage, soybeans, and potatoes.
Kim Haru tried tapping on the other seeds, but the system popped up a message.
[ You have not obtained this seed and cannot meet the unlock conditions. ]
When he scrolled to the [Armor] category, something clicked in his mind.
