Chapter 72: Chapter 70: Earning Money While Alleviating Poverty
This action reaped considerable rewards.
Now we need to consider how to transform these resources into cash.
Hang Yu first cycled back to Cyan Dragon Alley. It seed like the neighborhood committee organized a street-cleaning activity today, so the condition of the community’s main road was slightly improved.
But it didn’t make much difference.
The plants grew too quickly.
The neighborhood committee and property managent couldn’t keep up with it.
When Hang Yu arrived at the door of his house, ready to take out his keys to open the door, he suddenly saw Granny Wang from afar, accompanied by ngng, laboriously pushing a food cart towards ho.
The road condition in Cyan Dragon Alley was very poor.
The eternally stubborn weeds kept growing wildly.
The tallest ones were as tall as an adult, almost drowning the two of them in the grass.
Grandma Wang and Little ngng were both strengthened by the Spirit Realm, so their strength was quite substantial, but even so, they found it exceedingly difficult in this situation.
Little ngng pressed both hands on the cart, like a little calf, sweating until her hair was soaked, her face turning red with effort, but still found it very difficult to push the food cart.
"ngng, Granny Wang, let
give you a hand!"
Both of them suddenly felt a huge force.
The food cart, which was hard to move an inch, was suddenly pushed forward.
Who has such imnse strength?!
Yang ngng imdiately looked up; her small face was dirty and covered with sweat beads, her big eyes were clear and bright, reflecting a very familiar face.
"Ah, it’s Brother Hang, thank you, Brother Hang."
During this process, Hang Yu suddenly thought of a problem.
Bald Qiang, a man in his thirties, calls himself "big brother" all the ti.
Hang Yu refers to Bald Qiang’s mother as Granny, and Bald Qiang’s niece, ngng, calls him Brother Hang.
How exactly does this seniority work out?
Everything is completely ssed up!
Of course, Hang Yu doesn’t care about that.
With the help of a Level 3 Combat Professional, the food cart was quickly pushed into the courtyard.
Granny Wang hastened to say, "Thank you, Little Hang, ngng, quickly pour a glass of water for your brother."
Yang ngng, understanding and sensible, brought a glass of water, her little face full of admiration, saying in a crisp and sweet voice, "Brother Hang is really strong, even stronger than my Uncle Bald."
Hang Yu patted the little girl’s adorable bun hairstyle: "If Little ngng practices well in the Spirit Realm, she won’t be any less strong than brother in the future."
Yang ngng’s eyes lit up.
Hang Yu’s gaze fell on Granny Wang’s food cart.
This food cart mainly sold pancakes with fillings.
Granny Wang must have relied on this to make a living before.
Hang Yu asked, "Can you still make money selling pancakes with fillings now?"
Granny Wang looked worried: "It’s hard to make money now, we’re selling at a loss; the prices of flour and eggs are too high."
Due to the impact of the Spirit Realm invasion, market materials like eggs, flour, and sausages were in high demand; these things were hard to buy in supermarkets, and even if you could, the prices were quite expensive, plus pancakes with fillings weren’t necessities.
The long-term outlook is also not optimistic.
Because, inevitably, as ti goes by, traditional food in the present world will be phased out.
Average people like Granny Wang, if they can’t change their mindset, will find the future increasingly difficult.
But fortunately, there’s no shortage of food right now!
People can easily catch wild rabbits, wild snakes, and other wild ga if they go outside; no matter how difficult tis get, at least they won’t starve themselves.
Granny Wang is considered lucky. Her son, Bald Qiang, is doing better by following Hang Yu. It’s hard to say if he’ll rise to great success, but at least he won’t live poorly.
"Have you thought about changing your way of making money?" Hang Yu said to the old lady and the young girl before him: "Granny and ngng’s abilities are useful; as long as they’re well-developed, they can definitely make a lot of money."
Little ngng showed a surprised expression: "ngng can make money too? ngng is only six years old, still in kindergarten."
"Who says kindergarteners are any less capable?"
Hang Yu put down the teacup in his hand and took out a Slave Hamr from the Spirit Realm space, "Why don’t you try to decompose this piece of equipnt first, Granny Wang."
"Ah, this is Spirit Realm equipnt? Spirit Realm equipnt is very valuable!"
Granny Wang was hesitant and fearful of damaging it; she couldn’t afford to compensate for a piece of Spirit Realm equipnt.
"This equipnt has no durability, it’s hardly different from scrap. Besides, I have plenty of such equipnt. Don’t worry, Granny, just give it a try."
Since Hang Yu said so.
Granny Wang had no choice but to activate a decomposition skill.
The Slave Hamr was enveloped in a halo, gradually glowing until it was decomposed into two items.
One was "Broken Cold Iron."
The other was "Gray Crystal Stone Powder."
The Slave Hamr was too low-level to be decomposed into good materials.
The Broken Cold Iron couldn’t be used for artifact refining, while the Gray Crystal Stone Powder was an incomplete Gray Crystal Stone, generally needing twenty portions of powder to rge into a complete Gray Crystal Stone.
Hang Yu took out another Slave Hamr.
He entrusted both decomposition materials to ngng.
"Little ngng, co here. Now use these two materials to see if you can repair this hamr."
Children are all very curious and carefree.
ngng had a high goodwill towards Hang Yu, so she trusted him completely, and without any hesitation, picked up the materials and the hamr. At that mont, she had an intuitive insight.
Little ngng sensed that the hamr could be repaired.
Activate Repair Skill!
The "Broken Cold Iron" and "Gray Crystal Stone Powder" vaporized into light, infused into the Slave Hamr, and triggered a burst of strong light that lasted for four to five seconds before gradually fading away. The old and worn hamr looked brand new, with no visible wear and tear.
This hamr appeared as if it had just been forged.
"Slave Hamr," Level 1 Equipnt, Gray Lower Grade Quality, Physical Attack
1, Durability 8/8.
The maximum durability had dropped by two points, an unavoidable loss during the repair process.
Because the quality of the materials used for repair was too low-level.
"Wow, amazing, the old hamr looks brand new!"
Little ngng held the shiny new hamr, her mouth open in awe.
"Isn’t it magical?" Hang Yu was very satisfied, "A Slave Hamr with no durability can’t sell for even twenty or thirty thousand, but now this Slave Hamr could be sold for two hundred thousand, and people would scramble to buy it."
Little ngng had no concept of money.
Like discovering a new continent, she began to play with the hamr.
Granny Wang revealed a look of shock; first decomposing a hamr to get materials, then using materials to repair another hamr, and within that cycle, generating a huge profit!
However, what shocked her even more was yet to co.
Hang Yu took out all the Slave Hamrs and Fish Hunting Spears he had collected.
There were thirty-eight Slave Hamrs and twenty Fish Hunting Spears, instantly forming a small mountain!
"How does Brother Hang have so many weapons?" Yang ngng widened her innocent eyes: "But all these weapons are broken and need repairing?"
"Yes, that’s right, they all need repairing!" Hang Yu pinched the little girl’s cheek, "But brother can’t repair them; only little ngng can. Can you help ?"
ngng didn’t expect that the almighty Brother Hang would have to ask her for help. She imdiately felt a huge sense of accomplishnt, patting her chest and guaranteeing, "Don’t worry, Brother Hang, little ngng will do her best to repair them!"
Granny Wang was so shocked that she couldn’t speak.
Lately, when chatting and gossiping with other elder ladies, she often heard them discussing the Spirit Realm equipnt, and she knew that even the poorest quality Spirit Realm equipnt was valuable.
A family with a piece of Spirit Realm equipnt.
That’s always sothing to be proud of!
And now this young neighbor took out dozens of them at once!
Can she not be surprised? Can she not be shocked? It’s a real test of one’s heart!
It’s like soone living in poverty in the slums suddenly has a cart of gold bricks dumped in front of them; the shock is similar.
These pieces of equipnt, in Hang Yu’s eyes, were just so broken scrap tal without durability, useless to keep, and a waste to discard.
But considering that even an Atoman mask was almost worth a hundred bucks now.
Selling each Slave Hamr for a few thousand wasn’t excessive, was it?
However, weapons with only 1 or 2 durability were practically useless, and as the Yangtze Fishman Association’s equipnt matter ca to light, such low-quality and low-durability inferior equipnt would erge abundantly in the future, making it hard to directly sell them.
But if the equipnt is repaired,
Their value changes entirely!
Hang Yu could make a profit himself and also help alleviate poverty; why not do it?
Most importantly, Granny Wang and Little ngng were trustworthy. In the future, any community or faction would need decomposition and repair services, so cultivating them would only benefit him without any harm.
