Chapter 162: Free Help

The resources refreshed this month were unified for all regions. Ordinary residents have left the city. When they see different grains and vegetables, everyone wants to collect more.

Some people get up early in the morning and go out with their whole family, including their half-year-old children.

Paradise City has now been promoted to a third-level city-state, for no other reason than to be able to purchase a protective shield that can adjust the temperature in the city.

Although Ke Qun was in the world of games before the end, flirting with girls was like collecting cards. After picking one up, he would switch to the next one and continue the strategy.

But since he became the city lord, he felt a sense of responsibility and devoted himself to resolving conflicts among the residents of the city.

So after several nearby city-states were disbanded, many residents came here.

It was just that Ke Qun originally played games mainly to pick up girls. Most of the game equipment was given by girls, and he was not interested in games.

When asked by the system, he did not choose to exchange his assets for gold coins, so he has not been as lavish in building a city-state as Lu Jiu.

He prioritizes city defense weapons and patrol NPCs. After all, these can play a big role when beasts siege the city. Prices in the city were slightly higher than in Xuantian City, but people’s freedom of life was about the same as in Xuantian City.

People work hard and accumulate resources under any circumstances.

It was another early morning, and the fields outside Paradise City were full of people. Everyone was bending over to collect grain and vegetables.

The sun came out today, but people didn’t feel the warmth at all. On the contrary, a gust of wind passed by and everyone had to shrink their necks.

Lin Jiang was only twelve years old this year. At this age before the end of the world, he should have been on campus. Now he goes out with his parents to collect food, but he is not dissatisfied.

Before the end of the world, he had severe asthma. After the drastic changes in the world, his disease disappeared, and his body was no different from that of a normal healthy person.

In the past, his classmates in the class did not dare to play with him for fear that he would suddenly have an asthma attack.

Now that the world has become gamified, he can play around like a normal child, and his younger brother and sister are getting more and more obsessed with him.

After collecting for a while, he felt his throat was itchy and couldn’t help coughing twice, but he didn’t pay attention.

Lin Jiang’s father heard his eldest son’s coughing sound and remembered that the child had asthma before, so he asked: “Xiao Jiang, are you feeling uncomfortable?”

Lin Jiang shook his head: “It’s okay, Dad, I probably choked on the cool breeze.”

Lin Jiang’s father saw that his son was looking calm and didn’t worry too much: “Okay if you feel uncomfortable, check your information immediately. Don’t be reluctant to take the medicine when it’s time.”

Lin Jiang nodded obediently. Some children in the city have been sick recently, but they usually get better after drinking one or two bottles of medicine. Lin Jiang’s parents bought two bottles for each of their three children.

After working for an hour, Lin Jiang felt that his head was a little heavy and his body was a little hot. He didn’t think much about it and thought that it might be the heat generated in his body after working for a long time.

After a while, he couldn’t help but cough a few times, covered his mouth again, and continued collecting as if nothing was wrong. He didn’t want his parents to worry about him anymore.

Looking at his personal information, he found a reminder that he was infected with the negative status of typhoid fever. He had no choice but to secretly take out a bottle of medicine and drink it.

Looking forward to the medicine taking effect as soon as possible and getting better.

In the city, Ke Qun had a headache while sitting in the drugstore. He only had this drugstore. When he first opened it, he chose an intermediate-level talent NPC. After all, it cost him hundreds of gold coins to upgrade the city-state from level one to level two.

There were thousands of gold coins in his backpack. After upgrading to level 3, he spent a lot of money to replenish the weapons to protect the city. However, it was only level 3 and he has spent so many gold coins. Who knows how much more money will be spent later?

But now, he discovered that many children are prone to negative states, so he gave the pharmacy manager several hundred tempered fruits to use in medicine. The NPC’s utilization rate of tempered fruits was about 60%.

As for the pharmaceuticals produced to treat typhoid fever, one bottle may not be enough to cure the disease, and another bottle needs to be taken. Even if one bottle is effective, it will take most of a day to recover.

He knew that the medicine from Xuantian City would take effect immediately after one bottle, and people could recover in a few hours.

The NPC in the drugstore over there has a high-level talent. If he wants to hire someone with a high-level talent now, he has to open another store. However, there was not much income in the winter. He was a little confused about whether to open it now or wait until the end of winter to see the situation.

“Ke Qun, what are you thinking about?” Feng Qi came here, especially after hearing that he was here.

Feng Qi was originally in another city-state, but she came here after the city-lord dissolved the city-state. After all, she and Ke Qun were good friends before.

Ke Qun saw that Feng Qi was wearing a tight-fitting long skirt. Although it had long sleeves and the skirt covered all parts of her legs, the dress still perfectly showed off Feng Qi’s S-curve.

It doesn’t look like there’s much fabric, it’s just enough to cover her hot figure, but it has good thermal insulation properties.

He was used to this woman’s behavior and was unwilling to wear those warm coats even in the cold winter.

He said feebly: “I am considering whether to open another pharmacy. The utilization rate of raw materials by the intermediate-level pharmaceutical NPCs is not as good as that of high-level talents. If this continues, the resources and money I have obtained will be wasted.”

Feng Qi twisted her slender waist walked to Ke Qun and sat down: “That’s it. If you think about it, I can help you.”

Feng Qi was just a little rich woman. She has a city-building token but is unwilling to be the city lord. She liked to live a carefree life in the city. This attitude was enviable to everyone.

“What are the requirements?”

Feng Qi covered her mouth and chuckled, with a coquettish tone: “Really, can’t I help you for free? I have been in love with you after all.”

If nothing else, Feng Qi was good-looking, with a gorgeous appearance and a hot body, otherwise, Ke Qun would not have fallen in love with her.

“Are you sure? Opening a shop and hiring an NPC will cost dozens of gold coins. Do you still have a lot of gold coins?” Ke Qun asked uncertainly.

This woman spent a lot of money on the game, but they were all equipment, so he didn’t know how many gold coins she had.

Feng Qi’s white hand touched her chest: “Don’t worry, it will take me several years.” Gold coins were usually obtained through lottery, and they are the easiest to get in the lottery column.

She won many prizes for some beautiful clothes. She just likes to dress up her game characters beautifully.

She didn’t expect that one day she would wear these exquisite clothes in the game.

Ke Qun felt that there was nothing wrong with someone willing to spend money for him: “Okay, I’ll treat you to dinner when the restaurant is ready.”

Feng Qi just smiled coquettishly and said: “Okay, you have to treat me to the most expensive meal.”

She has equipment, gold coins, and no shortage of weapons. She was lucky enough to get a career card at the beginning of the apocalypse, but she didn’t get a skill card. But this kind of life was what she dreamed of.

Many handsome guys in the city flock to her for no other reason than her generosity.

Ke Qun nodded: “Of course, a beauty like you deserves the most expensive one.”

He knows that Feng Qi has been entangled with many people, but what does it matter? With a world like this, who cares so much?
