Chapter 192: Scammed

Hearing the system’s words, Yao Zhi was skeptical and asked, "You won’t let me use the feature for free. Tell me, what is the price?"

The system went silent for a moment before it replied, "To activate the feature, the Host only needs to pay 150,000 points."

"So expensive! It’s just a small feature. Why is it so expensive?" Yao Zhi asked unhappily.

"Although this feature seems useless, it’s very convenient. The Host only needs to hand over a handful of soil as a sample. The system will analyze the sample, provide a detailed report about the soil condition, and custom-make the fertilizer to improve the soil quality."

"With only 150,000 points, the Host doesn’t have to worry about using the wrong type of fertilizer or making a mistake when mixing the amount of locust powder and blood meal."

"For only 150,000 points, the Host can just sit back and obtain the specialized, custom-made fertilizer. Guaranteed quality, guaranteed safety, guaranteed no hard work."

The more Yao Zhi listened, the more flabbergasted she became. She felt that after the update, something was wrong with her system.

After a long silence, she finally asked, "System, did something go wrong during your update? Why do you sound like a salesman trying to scam a naive young girl now?"

The system went silent for a while before it replied as if nothing was wrong. "Does the Host want to activate the automatic soil analysis and fertilizer mixing feature?"

Yao Zhi knew that her guess was right, but she didn’t say anything. After all, it was her system. No matter how weird it became, it was still her system. She couldn’t do anything about it.

With this thought, she nodded and said, "Okay."

The next moment, she saw that her points were deducted, and a blue screen appeared in front of her. There was a small empty box on the screen. Seeing this, she opened her system’s storage and took out the samples she had collected before.

She put the first sample into the box and waited. 10 seconds later, a detailed report of the soil condition appeared on the screen. After reading the report, she continued putting the samples into the box.

After all the samples were analyzed, the system finally said, "The system needs the area of the soil according to the samples to calculate the amount of fertilizer needed. Host, please report the size of the land."

Hearing this, Yao Zhi was stunned. She didn’t know how large the area was since the soil samples were taken from different spots. From the report, each spot needed a different fertilizer.

As if noticing her trouble, the system said, "If the Host is unsure, you can activate the scanning feature for only 5,000,000 points."

"This feature is not only able to check the soil condition, but it can also check the underground condition. With this feature, the Host will be able to find underground water for digging wells, undiscovered mineral veins, jade mines, and treasures buried underground."

The moment Yao Zhi heard the price, her eyes widened in shock. "System, how much did you say the price was?"

"5,000,000 points."

This time, Yao Zhi didn’t question the system directly. She realized that she was trapped by the system as it lured her with that automatic analysis feature. It was actually waiting for her here.

Although she had more than 20,000,000 points, she still felt pained at the thought of paying 5,000,000 points for a feature. But thinking about the function of this feature, she was actually tempted.

Who knows, she might need this feature one day?

She thought for a long time and decided to activate the scanning feature. Just treat it as an investment!

Taking a deep breath, Yao Zhi finally said through gritted teeth, "I will pay."

As if worrying that she would change her mind, before she even finished her words, the system had already deducted her points. The next moment, she suddenly felt dizzy. The dizziness lasted for 1 minute before she recovered. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

When she regained her composure, she saw that the system had categorized the fertilizers, and there was even a map on the blue screen.

The map was her wasteland and was divided into several colored areas. The fertilizers were also marked with colors. Just looking at this, Yao Zhi knew that the fertilizers with the same color as the land were the custom-mixed ones.

"This feature is indeed useful," she muttered in a soft voice.

Since the fertilizer was ready, she took it out and stacked it in the area near the backyard in order of color. The sacks used to store the fertilizer were gunny sacks, and there was a colored circle in the center of each sack.

When she was done, Yao Zhi returned to her room and took out a piece of paper and a fountain pen. Afterward, she bought a set of colored ink for 10 points. The set came with a total of 24 colors and 1 glass pen as a bonus.

She drew the map, divided it into several areas, and colored each area according to the one shown on the system’s map.

After she was done, she cleaned the glass pen. Then, she stored the glass pen, the fountain pen, and colored ink in her system’s storage before she folded the map and put it in her pouch. She would give this map to Yang Dalang later and let him handle the fertilizer process.

When she was done, the sky slowly brightened. Yao Zhi checked the sky and went to the kitchen. It was already dawn. Although the sun had not risen, the villagers had woken up one after another.

She went to do her morning routine as usual and fed her mounts and pets. When she was done, she harvested the vegetables and stored them in her system’s storage before she rode her donkey to find Yang Dalang in the wasteland.
