Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

After walking about fifty meters towards the grain store, Ye Chuyi dodged into an alley and put the cloth bag on the ground with a hum.

"White cub, do you have any space storage tools?" She called out the system and rubbed its soft fur.

Baizi whimpered comfortably and turned over quickly. [Host, there is everything in the system mall.]

"System mall?" Ye Chuyi looked at it doubtfully, opened the system panel, and sure enough, found a lit icon on it.

She clicked lightly, and as the light flickered, the page was soon filled with a wide variety of product images.

From daily necessities to high-tech products, everything is available.

Ye Chuyi was excited as he saw them, and quickly started to select things on the screen: steamed buns, toilet paper, green vegetables, he wanted them all!

Baizai took the time to glance at it and stuck out his tongue in disgust. The host was such an idiot. He chose so many things without any points.

[Ding! Ding! Insufficient balance, unable to purchase.]

Ye Chuyi stared blankly at the big red words on the screen. There was no price on this thing, so it wasn't free? How could there still be insufficient balance? !

She clicked a few more times without giving up, and the words "Insufficient balance" were so red that they almost looked like blood.

[Host, don't you even look at the points you have?]

Baizai sighed, raised his two front paws and tapped the screen twice.

As the screen flashed, an additional line of text appeared under all the items, saying that the price was xx points.

So, why wasn't there this line of text just now? Is this a scam?

Ye Chuyi poked Baizi's forehead angrily, "Did you deliberately not tell me, you bad dog."

[I didn't expect you, the host, to be so stupid that you didn't even read the instructions?]

Baizai puffed out his chest in defiance.

"Humph."

Ye Chuyi glared at him and started to study the things in the mall again. The cheapest steamed bun was ten points for two points, which looked pretty good.

Pull down and there is storage space, a row of ninety-nine.

Ye Chuyi swallowed silently, found the filter button in the upper left corner, and sorted from low to high.

Well, the smallest one cubic meter is 999 points.

"It seems okay." Ye Chuyi touched his chin thoughtfully.

In the novels I read before, props like storage spaces, whenever they were for sale, would cost at least two more nines.

It seems that her system is not so useless!

Ye Chuyi happily went to check her points balance.

At first glance, I found the wrong place.

She closed the pop-up page, muttered a few words to herself, and reopened it, but there was no change.

You're kidding me!

She closed the page in disbelief and reopened it while Baizai looked at her as if she was an idiot.

Then he slid to the ground against the wall like a deflated balloon. Thirty-five points, that's all!

Baizai stretched his little head and looked at the screen. Thirty-five was right. It was enough to buy a lot of candies. How could the host not be happy?

"Three tasks, thirty-five points. Baizi, are you sure this is true?"

Ye Chuyi tried to struggle, hoping that the points would not be refreshed yet.

[That's right, one main mission is worth ten points, and completing a collection mission is worth five points. Random missions have the highest rewards, but the host hasn't triggered them yet.]

The white cub tilted his little head and used his little paws to count them one by one.

"That's not right either."

Ye Chuyi calculated in her mind, if that was the case, wouldn't that mean she would have ten more points, so she would have made a profit.

"Woof!" Baizai blinked.

[The first mission triggered a special reward, so I got 10 extra points.]

One task is worth ten points. How many tasks does she have to complete to get enough points for a storage space?

[Beep——, please rescue the child abducted by human traffickers before the city gates close. If you succeed, you will be rewarded with 10 taels of silver and 10 steamed buns. If you fail, you will be punished with electric shock.]

The mechanical sound of the system came lightly and left lightly, without taking away any unpleasant cloud.

"I asked you before if you had any tasks yet, so why do you suddenly have one now?" Ye Chuyi stood up from the ground in a hurry and casually brushed off the dirt on his body.

Anyway, the clothes are already dirty and in a mess, so it doesn't matter.

[Because the mission target has been detected, there is a mission!]

Baizai shook his head as if it was a matter of course. How could he help others without a mission target? The host was so stupid.

"So you need to get in touch with the mission target?"

Ye Chuyi leaned over the alley entrance and looked out, and saw half a carriage box in another alley diagonally opposite.

The person who got off the carriage was none other than her old acquaintance outside the city.

This old lady is really not a good person. It turns out that she put on such a show just to traffic her.

[Host, why don't you catch up?] Baizi jumped onto the host's shoulder and looked at the carriage moving away anxiously.

"No hurries."

Ye Chuyi patted its little butt and looked at the two cloth bags on the ground and fell into deep thought.

The weight of sixty or seventy kilograms was almost the same as her own body weight. She was afraid that she would not be able to walk while carrying this thing to do the mission.

It would not do to leave it here. If someone took it away, she would have no place to cry.

Go out of town and come back?

That's even worse, she can't even afford the city entrance fee.

Seeing his host's calm appearance, Baizi jumped around anxiously, "Woof woof woof!"

Do the task!

"White cub, will the punishment for system failure be electric shock to death?"

Bai Zai was stunned for a moment, then shook his head blankly, "You will just feel uncomfortable, and the worst case scenario is that you will just pass out."

Ye Chuyi took a deep breath and made a simple decision, "Then give up this mission."

The worst that can happen is that I get electrocuted once when the mission fails, which is much better than becoming a complete pauper. I don’t want this system reward!

Ye Chuyi grabbed the two cloth bags again, held his head high and walked towards the city gate.

"Woo, woo~"

[Host, how can you give up the mission? You will be punished. Electric shock is very uncomfortable, host!]

Baizai bit the hem of Ye Chuyi's clothes and whimpered, trying to change her rebellious thoughts.

Ye Chuyi ignored it and walked forward slowly. As long as the food was there and she was there, no one could stop her from taking the food back.

[Host can get rewards and points for completing tasks, which can be used to buy lots of delicious food, woo~]

"If I miss this mission, there will be another one. If I lose the food, I will starve to death. Baizi, can you bear to see your host die with regrets?"

Ye Chuyi remained steadfast in his fight for food.

[Woo~ Food, I can help the host get food, I can do it, host, you have to complete the task, complete the task! ]

Baizai blurted out the secret in his haste, leaving long scratches on the ground with his four little paws.

Ye Chuyi suddenly froze, staring at Baizi with a sly smile on his face, "You said you could take the food."

Baizai failed to brake in time and fell flat on his face due to inertia. When he heard what the host said, he froze in place in a daze.

It seemed like it had exposed the secret magic weapon, the secret magic weapon that Dongdong had said must not be told to others, woooo.

"Don't lie there pretending to be dead, get up and gather the food."
