Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

If you want to protect your beautiful face in the end times, it is absolutely necessary to be strong, otherwise beauty will be a deadly knife.

Seeing that he could not become a martial arts master with this body, there was only one way left: rely on the system!

So she must complete the tasks issued by the system well. She has to find a way to meet her scumbag father, find a way to make money, and then stock up on goods, and then survive in the apocalypse.

Looking at Shi Anan who suddenly seemed to be full of energy, Fu Xin tilted her head in confusion, but when she saw that Shi Anan had started walking again, she also jogged to catch up.

I don’t know how long I wandered around, but just as Shi Anan was walking back, the system that had been silent for a few days finally popped up again.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for reaching 100% of the exploration level of Xuezhuyuan and successfully lighting up the map of Xuezhuyuan. ]

[Exploration rewards are now being distributed - Exploration rewards have been distributed, please check. 】

Shi Anan suddenly stopped when she heard the system's voice. Fuxin was about to ask her what was wrong when she turned around and held her hand. Shi Anan held Fuxin's hand and shook it up and down a few times, and said to her happily: "Fuxin! You are really my lucky star!"

After saying that, without waiting for Fu Xin to reply, she turned around and ran into the house like the wind. She wanted to see what reward the system had given her.

"Waiter, open the backpack and let me see it." I never thought that this system also contains hidden exploration tasks.

[Host, I told you my name is not Xiaoer. ]

If the system had a physical body, it would definitely show its helpless expression. But Shi Anan didn't care about that. Xiaoer was so nice, it was good enough that he didn't call her an idiot.

Although the system made a useless rebuttal, it still opened the backpack interface as Shi Anan said.

There was a package with [Exploration Reward - Snow Bamboo Courtyard] written on it lying quietly in the backpack.

Shi Anan opened the package, a white light flashed in front of her, and the mechanical voice of the system began to broadcast again.

[Congratulations to the host for receiving 100 taels of silver and a map of Xuezhuyuan. ]

Just gone???

I thought the system would reward some substantial skills or items for escaping and saving lives, but the result was just pure monetary rewards.

Giving money is fine, but you should give more. What can a hundred taels do? If it were normal, it would be fine. A hundred taels is not a small amount. But we are about to face the end of the world. How much can we buy with this little money?

Forget it, forget it, it's better to have something than nothing. She will find a way to go out for a walk and get to know the prices here so that she can make a stocking list.

As for what's the use of the map of Xuezhuyuan, isn't her exploration degree 100%? Could it be that there are some hidden places here?

Shi Anan picked up the map casually and took a look at it, then his expression suddenly became serious.

She was wrong! She shouldn't have suspected that the system gave her random things. There really was a hidden level in Xuezhuyuan that she hadn't cleared!

After carefully identifying the location, Shi Anan discovered that the hidden place seemed to be right next to the backyard pond they passed by today, and next to it was the wall close to the Weiguo Mansion.

Could it be that this hidden passage leads to the Duke of Wei's Mansion? Shi An'an was slightly excited about her guess.

Others were afraid to get close to that place, but she was not. The Duke of Wei had been so prominent for so many years, so there must be a lot of treasures hidden there. Maybe she could find some valuable things, and then she could implement her stockpiling plan more boldly!

However, it is already a bit late now. The sun will set in another hour. That place is desolate and it will be pitch black after the sun sets and you won’t be able to see anything. You have to wait until tomorrow to explore.

I didn't expect that this system was really like playing a game, and there were rewards for opening maps. In this case, before waiting for the end of the world in two months, she could go around the Shi family first. Even if she didn't get any good props, at least she would have money. With money, she could better prepare supplies to deal with the end of the world.

"Miss, would you like to have dinner now?" Fu Xin shouted outside the house. She didn't know what was wrong with the young lady and why she was suddenly so excited.

"Bring it in!" Shi Anan put the map in his hand back into his backpack and replied.

Thanks to Aunt Bai's wealth, although Shi Zhengde could only get the salary of a fifth-rank official, he could probably live a richer life than some first-rank ministers. At least the declining Zhongyuan Marquis's Mansion could not compare to the Shi family. Although the title looked glamorous from the outside, only they themselves knew what the situation was like inside.

Therefore, even though Shi Anan was an unknown concubine's daughter, the Shi family did not skimp on her food. After all, in the Shi family, even an ordinary servant could eat some meat occasionally.

Today's dinner consisted of two meat dishes, two vegetable dishes, and a soup. The dishes were all her favorites. Shi An'an was relieved to see that the soup was finally not chicken soup. This was mainly because the love of the beautiful aunt was too heavy. She felt that Shi An'an had lost her vitality this time, so she always wanted to find ways to nourish her body. She cooked chicken soup for several days in a row and asked people to send it to her. She almost vomited after drinking it.

However, the motherly love of the beautiful aunt is really beyond words. Although she is cowardly and does not know how to compete for favor, and can only help her daughter to a limited extent, she has always been doing her best to take care of her daughter. Shi Anan has also experienced this firsthand during the past few days since she traveled through time.

She had always felt a little embarrassed to have Auntie Meiren, who was only a few years older than her in her previous life, become her mother. Now she really regarded Auntie Liu as her own mother. Even for the sake of the original owner, she would do her best to protect her when the end of the world came. Oh, and her little lucky star. As for that scumbag father, we'll see how the situation develops.

Shi Anan was happily enjoying the happiness brought by the delicious food, but she felt a little sad when she thought that such a peaceful life might be gone soon.

"Hey, Fuxin, do you know the current price of food outside?" Shi Anan asked Fuxin while eating.

"Food prices? You probably know that, why are you asking this, young lady?" Although Fu Xin seldom left the house, servants also had their own connections. Sometimes she would ask the people in charge of purchasing in the Shi family to bring some things from outside for her, so she knew something about the market conditions outside.

"Nothing, I just want to understand." Shi Anan wanted to go out of the house to find out for herself, but she had just almost lost her life because of her elder sister. Her stepmother, Fang, would definitely not say that her daughter was wrong. Excusing Shi Anan from paying her respects on a daily basis was her way of keeping things quiet. If Shi Anan went directly to Fang and told her that she wanted to leave the house, that would be absolutely impossible.

When Fu Xin heard her say this, she didn't think much about it and told her some of the prices she knew.

For example, the prices of coarse grains and fine grains vary greatly. For example, a pound of brown rice costs only 5 cents, a pound of coarse flour costs 8 cents, but a pound of fine flour costs 35 cents. The price of refined rice is even more difficult to control, with a wide price range, and ordinary people cannot afford it.

As for meat, the price of a pound of pork is almost the same as that of a pound of fine noodles, and mutton is even more expensive. As for beef, sorry, in ancient times, it was not allowed to kill cattle casually. Generally, cattle were only killed when they were about to die of old age or because of some accident.

Therefore, the output of beef in the market is very small, and it needs to be registered with the government before being sold, and priority is given to those who are rich and powerful.

For example, cloth and clothes, a piece of linen costs 150 to 300 coins, and a piece of cotton costs 500 coins. As for satin and gauze, and even higher-end fabrics such as silk and brocade, the prices are also beyond the reach of ordinary people.

As for some other things, Fu Xin had never come into contact with them and didn't know much about their market prices, but rare resources such as ironware and medicinal herbs would not be very cheap.

However, Shi Anan calculated that if she only bought some daily necessities, the purchasing power of the 100 taels was still considerable, at least enough to support her, Aunt Meiren, and Little Lucky Star. But in the end times, it was definitely not enough to just have food and clothing, and she had to find a way to get some knives, weapons, and medical resources for emergency self-protection.

Moreover, Xiao Er is an infrastructure system. Judging from the current main task, once she finds a place that meets the system requirements to activate the construction area, the next task will definitely require her to carry out construction. How can she carry out construction if she has no resources?

Forget it, let's think about it later. The most urgent thing now is to think of how to stockpile some supplies for initial evacuation. Also, she must go find the secret passage shown on the map.
