I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 11: Spreading Kindness
Walking out of the cigarette factory, Li Nuo stretched.

Regarding the exam that just ended, he had something to say but he didn't know whether to say it or not.

He thought that the person who made the exam rules might be a very smart person.

At the end of the first exam, Li Nuo suddenly realized that it was not because he was too incompetent that he failed to finish the test paper, but because the test questions themselves were impossible to complete.

Which good person would use a question bank as an exam paper?
I really don’t know what to think.

"Li Nuo, remember to report in the day after tomorrow. Don't forget." Amy walked out of the door and greeted Li Nuo.

Li Nuo nodded. "Thank you for the reminder. I'll remember it."

Amy stopped and stared at Li Nuo, who was lost in thought, with a complicated look in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Li Nuo was puzzled.

Would Amy realize that she had slacked off on the second test?
"Come with me, I have something to tell you."

"Okay, you lead the way."

The two avoided other students and came to a relatively quiet alley.

Amy pursed her lips, feeling a little conflicted. She hesitated for a long time before speaking:
"Well... you have to pay tuition to be an apprentice..."

"Oh, that's right." Li Nuo suddenly realized and remembered the tuition fee.

The original owner's family was extremely poor. If his father had not worked hard and lived frugally, the original owner would never have been able to afford to go to college.

The original owner's father is now dead.

In the eyes of others, it would be unlikely for a teenager from a poor family to be able to afford the tuition.

But is this really the case?

Li Nuo secretly thought that maybe he could use the money from selling mushrooms to pay for his tuition.

On the other side, Amy looked at Li Nuo who was lost in thought, and mustered up the courage to say:

"If you don't mind, I would like to support you in my father's name. When you have income in the future, you can pay me back the tuition."

"Ah?" Li Nuo was stunned.

Amy nodded vigorously:

"Well, I will sponsor you to be an apprentice, that's all. Don't think too much about it, I'm just doing what I can, and I don't want to see someone who can make outstanding contributions to the empire being buried due to lack of money. You should use your time and energy on more valuable causes."

Li Nuo took a deep breath and looked at the girl in front of him carefully.

He gradually realized that in addition to her good-looking appearance, she also had a noble and pure soul.

"Thank you. I won't say much more about thanking you. Anyway, I won't let you feel that supporting me is a wrong thing to do."

"Then it's settled. You should report as usual the day after tomorrow. I'll make arrangements in advance. I'm leaving now. See you the day after tomorrow."

Amy turned and left, her steps quick and hasty, like a rabbit trying to suppress its inner joy.

Maybe in her heart, helping someone in need is far more worthy of joy than getting first place in the exam.

Li Nuo smiled silently and shook his head. For a moment he really didn't know what to feel.

He calmed himself, gathered his thoughts, and began to implement his survival plan.

Now that the food and water problems have been solved, the next step is to get clean air and move into safer homes.

Now I am near a cigarette factory, so I can see if there are any suitable houses around.

By the way, I also need to buy materials for growing milk mushrooms. I will trade with Laya tomorrow night.

Li Nuo plans to irrigate the common mushrooms for trading with sewage that is available for free to the residents of Xiachao.

He wanted to eat the sample-grade mushrooms himself, so he still used the system's purified water for free.

When I trade tomorrow, I have to ask Laya if I can change the trading currency.

Walking on the road with hundreds of ration cards, Li Nuo always felt that countless pairs of eyes were staring at him, which was really frightening.

...

...

Time flies by while I’m looking for a house and growing mushrooms.

In the evening of the next day, it was still the alley adjacent to the ruins area.

This time, Li Nuo arrived at the transaction location more than ten minutes in advance.

At his feet were four bags filled with mushrooms.

After a short wait, Leia arrived. She covered her face with a black cloak and scarf, revealing only her deep purple eyes:

"Sorry, I'm late."

"No, I came earlier." Li Nuo shook his head and looked past Laiya and behind her.

In the darkness deep in the alley, two faint red lights hung in the air, like a pair of eyes that glowed in the dark.

"That's my companion Da Zhuang, he's a rat-skin man." Leia gave a brief introduction.

The eyes hidden in the dark moved forward a few inches. The owner of the eyes showed half of his body at the junction of light and darkness and bent towards Li Nuo.

It is indeed a rat-skinned man.

He is about 1.5 meters tall, with dark brown hair all over his skin, and looks similar to a mole.

In the list of aliens in the human empire, rat-skinned people are prominently listed.

However, they were not exterminated.

Except for being ugly, the rat-skinned man has plus points in all other aspects.

They are gentle and emotionally stable, only slightly worse than the Capybara, and they love farming very much.

As long as outsiders don't destroy the fields, the rat-skinned people are happy to deal with humans.

"Hello."

Li Nuo waved and greeted the rat-skinned man.

"Hello, human." The rat-skinned man shook his paw and retreated back into the shadows.

Faced with the alien that could speak human language, Li Nuo was stunned for a moment, then felt relieved.

This is the Warhammer world, so it's normal for aliens to speak Low Gothic.

Li Nuo picked up the bag at his feet and said, "Take a look at the goods first, Laiya."

"Okay, give me some time."

Leia checked it carefully.

The two parties completed the transaction quickly.

Li Nuo received a total of 600 ration cards, while Laiya picked up her bag and walked towards Dazhuang, letting him leave first with four bags on his back.

Forty kilograms of mushrooms made Da Zhuang so happy that he shouted.

He tied the bags to his chest and back with ropes, and soon disappeared into the darkness of the alley.

Leia took off her backpack, placed it on the ground and unzipped it.

A milky white light shone out from the backpack, illuminating Li Nuo's face with a snow-white glow.

"These are the fluorescent spores you requested. Since most of the fluorescent spores are relatively small, I caught a few more. There are a total of sixty-two in the bag."

Li Nuo squatted down, opened his backpack, and activated the system's fungus analysis function.

【Name: Fluorescent Spores】

【Analysis results:】

[A peculiar floating fungus, more than 90% of the space in its body is occupied by air, and the light comes from metabolism. 】

[This fungus is so toxic that no bacteria have yet appeared that can contaminate it. Do not touch it directly with your hands, otherwise the contacted part will permanently lose sensation and all functions. ]

It is really poisonous, and the toxicity is not low.

Li Nuo frowned.

Leia asked quickly, "Are you not satisfied? I can get you some more."

"No, no. I'm just thinking about how to remove the toxicity of the fluorescent spores." Li Nuo waved his hand, stood up straight, and handed the bag on his shoulder to Leia:

"Here, this is the final payment, three kilograms of sample-grade mushrooms."

Leia held the mushroom and the bag in her arms and asked tentatively:

"Do you still need fluorescent spores? Just five kilograms, no, just four kilograms of sample-grade mushrooms, and I can guarantee to provide you with a batch of fluorescent spores every two days."

Li Nuo rubbed his chin and moved his gaze to Laiya's forehead, observing the mutated part of the other party:
"Hmm...it seems that the area of the scales is indeed smaller."

"Yes, I feel better too." Leia touched the scales near her hairline with longing in her eyes.

Li Nuo suddenly laughed and decided to pass on the goodwill transmitted from Amy:
"Since clean food combined with medicine is indeed useful, I will provide you with sample-grade mushrooms for a long time. In return, you do one thing for me. Don't worry, this is not against the law."
