Chapter XXVIII
"The nearest branch of the mercenary union to us is in Shangjing, and in a few days it will be your college reunion, so if you want to buy seeds, you can take advantage of that time. What do you see? Anna suggested.
"Well, let's go in a few days!" Originally, Qiao Yuanjing was also a little hesitant to go to the class reunion, after all, she also had a lot of things to do, and she had to delay for a day or two to go to Beijing, so she was a little hesitant.
But in the current situation, it is inevitable to go that way.
In terms of growing medicine, if she puts all her mind on cultivating new varieties, her parents don't know when they will be able to eat these foreign plants.
So she decided to grow the old varieties while cultivating new ones.
But xenomorph seeds are scarce, and only the mercenary union will sell them in small quantities at present, so she can only go to Beijing once.
Before going to the mercenary union, Qiao Yuanjing had already listened to Anna introduce the situation of the mercenary union in detail, there were some things she knew, and some things she didn't know, the mercenary last time was just a low-level mercenary, and of course she was not as rich as Anna at the cognitive level, so Qiao Yuanjing listened very carefully.
With the development of interstellar civilization, in the future, there will be fewer and fewer people who can get job opportunities, taking the earth as an example, a large number of extraterrestrial instruments have been introduced, and countless unemployed people have been unemployed, which is still the result of the interstellar civilization restricting the outflow of technology, and the introduced instruments are also varieties eliminated by interstellar civilizations, otherwise, the impact on the earth's industry can be said to be devastating.
Even so, countless unemployed people struggle to make ends meet every day, as evidenced by the boarding houses, which will get worse and worse in the future.
At this time, it is impossible to count on the government, and the government's relief money can save lives, but it is only life-saving, and if you want to change your fate, you can only rely on your own hands.
With the development of civilization, there are more and more administrative planets, and there will be more and more unemployed people, and among those people, in order to support their families, they gradually began to venture in the interstellar world, which was the original mercenary, and then, the mercenary union came into being.
Just as where there is sunshine there is shadow, in the union, there are all kinds of people, who often take risks for a little bit of credit, but most people are just looking for a survival.
The more Qiao Yuanjing knew, the more the depression in her heart gradually dissipated, in the final analysis, those mercenaries were just taking money to do things, even if she wanted to investigate their atrocities, she should find those culprits.
The day before the class reunion, Qiao Yuanjing had already arrived in Beijing, and after checking in at the hotel, she took Anna to the mercenary union as soon as possible.
The mercenary union in Shangjing is in a building with more than 20 floors, there are a lot of people in it, but the order is very good, quiet and quiet, there is no messy and noisy scene that Qiao Yuanjing imagined, which makes Qiao Yuanjing a little sideways.
Under Anna's guidance, she filled out the registration application on the union's light brain, submitted it, and waited for review.
The mercenary union also implements a real-name registration system, and she needs to verify her identity and complete the registration before she can go to the trading area upstairs.
Fortunately, the efficiency of the mercenary union was very high, and it didn't take long to see a small card spit out from the machine.
Qiao Yuanjing got the small card, and under the guidance of the road sign, he came to an automatic induction door, and a faint red light flashed in a pinhole-like place in front of the door, and the induction door slowly opened.
Qiao Yuanjing stepped into the door, followed by Anna. This door is not an ordinary sensor door, but you need to brush your face to enter, she has collected facial information when she registered just now, which is also one of the reasons why she needs to register. You can't get through this door without registration.
There was an elevator in the induction door, with floor options on it, and Qiao Yuanjing clicked on the floor marked with different plants.
When stepping out of the elevator, a very faint medicinal fragrance came from the tip of Qiao Yuanjing's nose, and the entire floor was full of counters, and boxes of special materials were sparsely placed inside.
"All of them here are alien plants, and in order to prevent the medicinal effect from being lost, the alien plants need to be stored in this special medicine box after they are picked." Anna answers her questions.
Qiao Yuanjing walked to one of the counters, and a tall woman with bronzed skin walked over behind the counter: "Hello?" What would you like to see? ”
Qiao Yuanjing smiled politely at her: "Hello, I want to see the alien seeds." ”
The woman looked at her in surprise, as if she couldn't imagine that Qiao Yuanjing would choose a profession like a cultivator to burn credit points, after all, the alien plant is delicate, not only easy to die, but also very easy to affect the quality of the plant, so the poor will hardly consider the path of cultivator, because the initial investment cannot afford it. The guest in front of her, as an earthling, is obviously unlikely to have that financial resources.
She thought so, but she quickly took out the box containing the seeds: "This is the only box, and this is what we collected at the edge of the Death Land of Silver Heart." ”
The woman said as she pushed the box in front of Qiao Yuanjing. The box was divided into small compartments, and there were some seeds scattered inside.
Qiao Yuanjing took a look, the statement that heterogeneous seeds are scarce is really not an exaggeration, there are only more than twenty in total, three or four varieties.
"What's the price?" Qiao Yuanjing stretched out his hand and pointed to one of the squares, which contained six seeds like lotus seeds.
"50 credits each."
"I want all six, you don't mind if I pay for them with energy stones, do you?" Qiao Yuanjing asked casually.
"Of course, but I only have credit for you here." The woman smiled.
"Yes."
Qiao Yuanjing handed out a third-level energy stone and a small card in her hand, and the woman took it and handed over the wrapped alien seeds.
Then he swiped the light brain with a small card, and Qiao Yuanjing's mobile phone prompted the account to receive 200 credits.
This small card has a wide range of uses, that is, a mercenary identity card, a bank card, and can also be used as an access control card, of course, there are some other uses.
Because she doesn't have a light brain, she can only carry this card with her, and if she has a light brain, she can enter the account and transfer money, which is very convenient.
For her at present, the light brain is still too expensive, and in the final analysis, it is because of poverty.
Qiao Yuan sighed softly in her heart, everything costs money, when will she be able to save enough for interstellar travel?
When he walked out of the trading area, a surprised voice came from behind Qiao Yuanjing: "Yuanjing? ”
She looked back, and the moment she saw the person, a smile bloomed at the corner of Qiao Yuanjing's mouth: "Ni Na! ”
