I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 225: Reward a pack of rice seeds from Champa

The jade box that was specially posted on the imperial list to be unlocked, what kind of treasure would it contain? Luo Qianhuai was a little curious.

Unfortunately, Huo Yu did not open the box. Instead, he locked it again and turned the key in the opposite direction. The machine buzzed again, but it was locked tightly again.

He held the box tightly in his hand: "Both you and I, it is best not to take a look at the contents inside. I will go into the palace to pay the order, you can do as you please."

Huo Yu strode out. Luo Qianhuai was about to leave with Zhang Qing when his expression suddenly changed and he stopped.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Qing noticed her hesitation and turned around to ask.

The system prompt sounded in her head, and Luo Qianhuai smiled bitterly, not wanting to say anything.

"Part 89 of the task of overturning the case as soon as possible is completed. Now evaluate the effectiveness of this shortcut route. Wow, the evaluation is completed. The total score is , and the evaluation is up or down."

"Analysis of the specific situation. This execution is divided into two parts: the system formulated an excellent and feasible plan and implemented 92% of the plan, scoring 88, with impeccable performance; the host implemented 8% of the plan, scoring 1, The performance is as poor as ever, but compared to the previous times when it was ineffective, it is still far from satisfactory. This system is tolerant and cannot bear to be too harsh. I hope that the host will respect itself and be strong, and never give up on itself."

Luo Qianhuai was sleepy and tired, too lazy to argue with it. He just wanted to go home early and go to bed, so he canceled the appeal reminder directly.

“The host has no objection to the evaluation results, and the upper and mid-level execution rewards are now distributed as follows:

1. 1000 points. System upgrade 9900/10000

2. One pack of Champa rice seeds (about 300 grams).

3. Emotional comfort once.

"The reward is about to be distributed. Do you want to withdraw it now?"

No matter how sleepy Luo Qianhuai was, he was still dazzled by this reward.

Of course, what could make her so interested couldn't be the emotional comfort that made her feel ashamed every time.

"You are good at the system! Isn't this Champa rice a rice seed that was only introduced to China in the Song Dynasty in the previous life? Why is it available now?"

She had read relevant articles and knew that Champa rice is a high-yielding, early-maturing, drought-tolerant rice species. The planting cycle only takes more than 50 days, so it can produce two to three crops a year.

At that time, rice seeds were strictly protected in Champa. A businessman secretly brought the rice seeds back and tried planting them in Fujian for many years.

Later, there happened to be a spring drought one year, and the people were faced with the situation of being unable to sow seeds and harvesting nothing. The officials followed the advice and planted 30,000 dendrobium from Fujian and promoted it throughout the country. As expected, the famine of that year was avoided, and the Song Dynasty never lacked grain and rice.

Although Luo Qianhuai himself has no worries about food and clothing, he also has a deep sense of mission and responsibility as a time traveler.

What she wanted to do and what she could do before was to try her best to popularize the medicine of her previous life here. However, the number of patients who can be treated is limited, but high-quality rice seeds can prevent the vast majority of people from going hungry, benefit more people, and have far-reaching significance. How could she remain indifferent?

But when it comes to the specific extraction time, there is no rush. Let her go back to rest and adjust first. It won't be too late to pick it up in a few days.

Luo Qianhuai thought like this and chose No.

"Start calculating the best time to extract this reward. Oh, the calculation is successful. The current time is the best time to extract the reward. According to the principle of efficiency priority, the host's wrong choice will be ignored."

Luo Qianhuai: "!!!"

I was so sleepy that my brain was so dull that I actually forgot about the system's recent poor performance. With trembling hands, she tried to put the hood back on, but it was too late.

"Start withdrawing rewards. This reward issuance adopts the self-withdrawal mode. Since the host's current ability is not enough to complete it independently, this system will enforce it!"

After the system was activated, Luo Qianhuai's appearance changed instantly. His face was expressionless and his eyes were indifferent. He walked past Zhang Qing and walked out of the house. As his body rose and fell, he had already disappeared into a building in the Yiting.

Zhang Qing didn't have time to think, and quickly followed closely. He was surprised when he saw that she was not entering anywhere else, but the kitchen in the Yiting.

Since Luo Qianhuai traveled through time, the most criticized thing about the system is the collection of rewards. Only this time, she was unusually willing and even a little eager.

This kitchen is quite large, with more than a dozen stoves of various sizes. The large and small iron pots and utensils are neatly packed away, and the bacon, grains, rice and other ingredients are also placed neatly and orderly.

Luo Qianhuai walked to the piles of corn piled high by the wall, picked up bags one by one and threw them behind.

Although Zhang Qing didn't know why, he also stepped forward to help her. Soon all the rice bags were removed, revealing the ground full of rice flour scraps and a wall made of green bricks and glutinous rice.

"There doesn't seem to be anything special here." Zhang Qing was a little confused.

Luo Qianhuai ignored him and squatted down in the corner of the wall. With his finger like a knife, he pierced the wall, breaking through the outer layer of camouflage and revealing a small hole in it.

But the outer layer of the camouflage was nearly two centimeters thick, and most of Luo Qianhuai's nails, which were not long, were broken. If it weren't for the state of his soul, Luo Qianhuai would have jumped in pain.

"System, being able to use tools is the main characteristic of advanced animals. If you don't even understand this, how can you say that you are from a high-dimensional plane?"

The system ignored it, and she dug in with her fingers that started to bleed, and pulled out a small gray cloth bag.

The bag looks inconspicuous, but it is made of Matsue Ling's material. It is tied with a dark green silk ribbon, and only the pattern of a pair of flying swallows is embroidered on the bottom.

Without opening the system to take a closer look, he stuffed the bag into his arms, ignored Zhang Qing, and strode out of the kitchen.

Zhang Qing is not a person who cares about details. When he saw her leaving, he would not be kind enough to return the corn to its original place.

Huo Yu did not lie to them. The soldiers who had previously sealed off the various places had indeed disappeared without a trace. The wind and snow continued, covering up all their footprints.

The two of them jumped off the ridge one after another and entered the backyard of the drug store. As soon as he landed on the ground, Zhang Qing's aura changed instantly.

He took off the sword from his back and shouted in a clear voice: "Who is so sneaky and dares to break into a house at night?"

Luo Qianhuai could also hear clearly that there were two more breathing sounds in the house than before they left, and candles were also lit in the main room. It seemed that the visitor was not worried about being discovered.

Of course, based on the remaining reward in the system, Luo Qianhuai had already guessed the identity of the visitor.

The previous two emotional comforts were given by the same person, which shows that this system still has some sense of morality. If it were anyone else, she might not be able to accept it so easily.

After all, she still loves colors deep down in her heart. Although she will never admit it with her mouth, someone's appearance is indeed firmly on the line in her heart.
