Hug the Powerful Man - C15 Prepare Material

“Little Four, what do you think we need to prepare?” Tang Tang asked the system while checking the funds on all his accounts.

From Tang Tang’s point of view, the System was the only person he could completely trust and discuss about the apocalypse with.

“Ding … Material Collection First Quest has been issued: Collect 100 kinds of grains, each weighing at least 1000 pounds.” The system’s unique mechanical voice rang out once again.

Tang Tang, who was walking on the street, stopped suddenly and asked, “You can post missions?”

“Our system is very human-like as well. It will be issued according to your needs and capabilities.” Number Four said proudly.

When Tang Tang heard this, he immediately asked: “Then is there a reward for completing it?”

In fact, what Tang Tang cared about the most was this. In the system messages he had read before, all of the missions issued by the system would have generous rewards after they were completed. These rewards were often the golden fingers of the protagonists.

“Of course.” Number 4’s cheerful and proud voice continued. Before Tang Tang could ask, he said, “If you finish the mission, you will be rewarded a point, right?”

Tang Tang: “…”

“Only one point for buying so many things?” Tang Tang said in disbelief.

100 types of grain, each weighing 1000 jins, if added together they would weigh 100,000 jins. Yet, they were only rewarded with a single point? It was his first time seeing such a stingy system.

One point is already a lot, storing up food should be done by you, you should not have gotten any rewards before the apocalypse began, and this is because I saw that you already owed so many points, that’s why I mercifully gave you the chance to get the points reward. If you don’t want it, I will just take it back. If it were to appear now, its two cheeks would definitely be puffed up with anger.

Hearing this, Tang Tang hurriedly comforted, “No, no, no. I know Little Four is great. If I want him, then will there be other missions and rewards in the future?”

In fact, what Little Four said was right, the grain storage should have been done by him. Even if there wasn’t any mission reward, he still wanted to do all of this.

Moreover, from the looks of it, there might be other missions in the future. At that time, there would also be points.

“That depends on your performance.” Obviously, it was still complaining about how Tang Tang thought it was petty before.

“I will definitely perform well.” Tang Tang hurriedly expressed his loyalty.

The first mission was to collect a hundred different kinds of grains. Rice, millet, soybeans, and black beans could all be counted as food. Although a hundred seemed like a lot, it was actually quite easy to find.

However, each one had to be sold for at least a thousand catties, which meant that they couldn’t be purchased in the city center. It was best if they could go to a village to buy them, both in quantity and at a cheap price.

Buying food in the countryside was not something he could accomplish in a day or two. At the very least, he could not go today, and he could not be at ease with his family.

Therefore, Tang Tang got a rough idea about the price of each type of grain in the downtown food distribution center today, so he didn’t get cheated when he got it.

The original owner was still a university student. He didn’t need to go to school during the weekend, but tomorrow was Monday and he needed to go to school.

However, there was still half a year until the apocalypse. There was no time for him to waste in school, so Tang Tang was preparing to take a break from school and concentrate on preparing the supplies to meet the apocalypse.

However, taking a break from school was not something that could be forgiven just by saying so. Especially if his parents found out about it, they would definitely have to explain themselves. Furthermore, he could not speak about the matters of the apocalypse for the time being.

Therefore, Tang Tang decided to ask for a temporary leave of absence. He would go through the formalities for the suspension only after he had thought of a good reason.
