Jiang Ye was stunned. He had a deep impression of this ID, "Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai" (True Can't Open Bottle Cap). Her provocative photos were still in the chat logs.
Jiang Ye: Good evening, repaying a favor, what do you mean?
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: You gave me food a few times before. If it weren't for your help, I might have starved to death long ago. I have some money now, so I've come to repay you!
Just as Jiang Ye was about to type a reply, the transfer notification came through.
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai transferred a thousand yuan.
Jiang Ye chuckled. This young lady was quite interesting. He remembered only giving her a few corns, which was nothing to mention, yet she transferred a thousand yuan to him.
Jiang Ye: You're too kind, it was just a small gesture. Call me if you need any help in the future.
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: If the big boss needs anything, just tell me. Goodnight, goodnight!
As Jiang Ye was about to close the chat channel, he suddenly remembered something.
This Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai seemed to be selling photos.
Perhaps he could recommend a Polaroid camera to her?
It was a casual business, so he might as well try.
Jiang Ye: By the way, I have a Polaroid camera here, do you need it?
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: Polaroid? You mean a camera that can print photos right after taking them? I want it!
Jiang Ye: The market price is over ten thousand, but I'll give you a discount, nine thousand, and include a hundred sheets of film.
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: Oh my, that's too expensive. I don't have that much money, I only have six thousand yuan on hand. Can I pay with photos?
Jiang Ye: Pay with photos?
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: Whatever you want to see, I'll take a picture of it, okay?
Jiang Ye's face turned red. Was it that exciting?
This wasn't quite right, was it?
In the end, reason did not triumph over desire.
Jiang Ye: Then it's fine to get to know each other. You can take the pictures as you see fit.
He bought a Polaroid camera from the Galaxy Mall and had it teleported over.
Soon, several photos were sent.
Jiang Ye picked them up and looked, and his nose started bleeding.
Slender legs, perfectly proportioned and beautiful, dazzlingly white. Several photos in a row, all of legs in different poses.
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: Boss, do you like them?
Jiang Ye: I like them.
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: I'm glad you like them. I'll transfer the remaining payment to you. Take care of yourself!
Jiang Ye's face turned crimson. Who could resist this?
Jiang Ye: May I ask, purely out of curiosity, do you often sell photos like this?
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: I've only shown them to you for now. When I was very hungry before, I thought about selling them, but others didn't have money to buy them. These past two days, I can earn money by harvesting snow oil grass. After winter passes, if I'm still short on money, I might consider selling photos.
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: I don't think it's a big deal. If you have a good figure, you should show it off boldly. When I was in school, I loved wearing miniskirts. It's just showing legs, not anything else. But boss, if you want to see something else, just tell me. You've been kind to me.
Jiang Ye was starting to scratch his head and ears. This long-legged beauty was truly unbearable.
Zhen Ning Bu Kai Ping Gai: Goodnight, I'm sleepy.
Jiang Ye: Goodnight, goodnight.
The next day, before the sun was up, Jiang Ye was already awake.
He got up, cut half a pumpkin, and put rice in the pot to cook.
The pumpkin porridge was ready, and it was just dawn. Jiang Ye looked out through the base's window. A group of bright red kangaroos were hopping on the horizon. He was about to go out and turn on the subwoofer, but the kangaroos had already disappeared, so he had to give up.
After breakfast, he went out to build a ramp with coal bags.
He quickly finished building it and drove the base vehicle outside the perimeter wall.
Then he dismantled the ramp and threw all the coal bags back inside the wall. This way, when he was away during the day, the annoying blood kangaroos wouldn't step on the ramp and jump in, making a mess of the house with their excrement and urine.
Driving the car across the snow oil grass plains, Jiang Ye decided in his heart to save money as soon as possible and buy an aerial three-wheeled vehicle.
It would not only be convenient for mining but could also be used to ascend to the heavens and escape in critical moments, making it a great artifact for getting rich and staying alive.
However, a three-wheeled vehicle was not cheap. It cost a huge sum of 1.2 million. He had to work hard these days to gather enough.
Lost in thought, he arrived at the edge of the mine pit.
Jiang Ye took a sack and went down the mine to pick up red copper ore.
The red copper ore in the early morning was extremely cold. Holding it in his hand, the chill pierced to the bone.
Jiang Ye endured the low temperature and quickly picked up the ore.
The small ore pieces were the most numerous, about the size of ping pong balls, very fragmented. Jiang Ye used a shovel to scoop up a pile of small ore pieces and throw them into the sack.
For ore the size of a human head, he picked it up by hand. He couldn't move too fast, as the mineral crystals were very sharp, and his fingers could easily be cut.
After working for over an hour, he had sold most of the ore in the mine pit.
Jiang Ye climbed to the surface and threw blood grenades into the mine pit.
Something strange happened. After this explosion, a different smell suddenly appeared in the air.
The smell was very faint, but Jiang Ye keenly detected it.
It was a scent like cheesecake, mixed with the smell of mint toothpaste, which was very peculiar.
Jiang Ye realized something and quickly went to the bottom of the mine pit.
The entire mine pit was now eight meters deep, quite massive.
At the very bottom, amidst the bright red copper ore, some different stones emerged, which had just been blasted out.
The stones were strangely shaped. On the same stone, there were three colors: black, yellow, and white, evenly distributed and integrated.
Jiang Ye grabbed his pickaxe and smashed off a piece forcefully, holding it in his hand to examine it.
Definitely not ordinary stone!
He sniffed it. The smell of cheese and mint toothpaste was strong.
If nothing unexpected happened, it should be a new type of ore, different from red copper ore.
A mine within a mine!
Jiang Ye was very excited, feeling like he had gotten a buy-one-get-one-free deal. He quickly climbed to the surface, returned to the base, and threw the black, yellow, and white interwoven ore into the trading pod.
After a brief scan, the information displayed.
[Item: Perovskite Ore (with feldspar impurities)]
[Item Description: Possesses metallic or adamantine luster, found in the upper mantle, carbonaceous chondrites, calc-alkaline igneous rocks, and schists. Chemical composition is CaTiO3]
[Estimated Value: 500 Yuan]
Jiang Ye was stunned.
The piece of perovskite ore he put in was only the size of an apple, yet it was estimated to be worth five hundred yuan!
This was a rather expensive type of ore!
After selling it, Jiang Ye turned around and went out.
He threw two more blood grenades into the mine pit.
Boom! Boom!
A large amount of grayish-yellow perovskite ore was blasted out and fell to the bottom of the pit.
Before the blood mist dissipated, Jiang Ye, carrying a sack, rushed down to pick them up.
This truly felt like picking up money, and not small denominations either, but large bills!
The red copper ore, which he had been picking up with great enthusiasm, was suddenly neglected, scattered around like worthless stones. Perovskite ore, however, became the new favorite, and not a single piece was missed.
At lunchtime, Jiang Ye glanced at his balance.
[1,066,510 Yuan]
He was less than 140,000 yuan away from buying the aerial three-wheeled vehicle!
Jiang Ye was overjoyed. He felt that he could get the aerial three-wheeled vehicle today.
