Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space

Jiao Lizhi thought for a moment and added, "Since they want supplies, they can pay the mercenary team with crystal cores. If they lack crystal cores, they can buy them from our base, or they can exchange them using other items."

"If that is not working either, then they can use other items such as weapons or medicines as payment. I believe that as a base, they wouldn't be so poor that they don't even have any decent items as rewards," she said with a smile.

When they heard her suggestions, everyone exchanged glances. They had never thought of this idea.

At this moment, they realized that they were still stuck with the mindset of replacing money with crystal cores. So, they only thought about paying people using crystal cores.

In their current situation, even though crystal cores could be used as a universal currency, the amount of crystal cores was limited and hard to gather.

What's more, they also need to use crystal cores to improve their abilities. Therefore, the crystal core was a consumable item.

If they could use barter to conduct transactions and lower the usage of crystal cores as currency, it would be more convenient and save lots of trouble.

Reaching this conclusion, Wen Hanli said, "This method is better than accepting all the survivors from other cities."

"Hanli, go inform Captain Wei about this method. If the other bases want to post mission notices in our city, you can cooperate with the Eagle Team and handle it as you see fit," Xun Che said.

Wen Hanli nodded and replied, "Understood."

As he said this, he quickly left the room and contacted Wei Ying.

After he left the room, Feng Xiu turned to Xun Che and asked, "Commander Xun, my team and I have to go back tomorrow. Have you thought about my proposal?"

"Commander Feng, we can sell some weapons to your base, but the amount you are asking for is too much. It's impossible for us to prepare it in two weeks," Xun Che replied while shaking his head.

"Then, how long do you need to prepare the weapons?" Feng Xiu asked again.

Xun Che glanced at Jin Xuyan for a moment before he said, "We will only be able to sell 10,000 low-grade blades and 10,000 low-grade daggers to your base in two weeks."

Feng Xiu frowned when she heard this. She wanted to buy 80,000 high-grade blades and 100,000 high-grade daggers from Xun Che. This amount was barely enough for her soldiers and the ability-users in her base.

After a while, she asked, "Commander Xun, how long will you need to complete this order?"

"We will send the items in two weeks. But you have to pay for the delivery fee," Xun Che said.

"No problem," Feng Xiu nodded.

After she said this, the soldier who followed her walked forward and waved his hand. The next moment, a gunny sack appeared on the table.

"Commander Xun, there are a total of 200,000 crystal cores in this sack. This will be the deposit for my order. I will pay the rest upon delivery. You can count it first," Feng Xiu said.

Xun Che nodded and went to make a phone call. Not long after, a group of soldiers entered the room and started counting the crystal cores. While they waited, Jiao Lizhi closed her eyes and leaned on her fiancé's shoulder.

Using her consciousness, she harvested the fruits, seeds, and berries from the mutant trees, mutant bushes, and mutant plants. After she was done, she went to check on the mutant animals.

The moment she reached the area where she raised the giant octopus, she heard a loud sound of fighting.

Boom!

Not long after, a long tentacle came out of the pond and hit the barrier she created before.

Boom!

Seeing this, Jiao Lizhi went to the pond and was stunned by what she saw. The giant octopus had grown so big that the pond was barely enough for it.

Fearing that the fish would be crushed to death by it, she quickly dug a bigger pond farther from the fish ponds. The pond had a diameter of 100 meters and a depth of 50 meters.

When she was done, she moved the water ball she created before using her energy and filled the pond. Then, she moved the octopus to the new pond and put a barrier around it. To ensure that it wouldn't starve to death, she moved some fishes to its pond as food.

After moving to the new pond, the giant octopus finally calmed down and swam around happily.

Thinking about the rapid growth of the giant octopus, Jiao Lizhi decided to check the fish. And as she expected, the fish had also grown bigger. Not only had their size increased, but the number of fish had also multiplied severalfold.

The current ponds were no longer enough to raise them. So, she dug the ground between the two ponds and turned it into a lake. With a larger living area, the fish no longer splashed the water around or fought each other.

Afterward, she went to check the mutant animals. The moment she saw the large number of hares, she was shocked.

She knew that hares could reproduce quickly, but this speed was far beyond her expectation. She only had two pairs of hares before, but right now, there were more than 600 hares in her grassland hopping around, eating grass.

If this situation were left alone, her grassland would soon be taken over by the hare clan!

'I should find time to slaughter some of them,' she thought.

After she made a note of it, she went to check the other mutant animals. Besides cattle and horses, which reproduced more slowly compared to others, the situation of the rest of the mutant animals was similar to that of the hares.

Before leaving the space, she used her mind to gather the cattle's milk, goat's milk, sheep's milk, horse milk, and honey collected by the honeybees and stored them in the warehouse area.

When she was done, she left the space and opened her eyes.
