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

Chapter 4 The deal is concluded
Using mushrooms and drugs to get rid of mutations?
Li Nuo subconsciously moved his gaze to Laya's hairline.

Because he was shorter than the other person, Li Nuo could easily see the scale pattern hidden by the brim of the hat.

Li Nuo narrowed his eyes and thought silently:
"Use the identification technique on that mutated skin."

【Identification is completed.】

【Name: Mutation site】

[Description: Mild mutation on the surface of the skin, not contagious. Sampling and testing of the mutated part is required to find the underlying cause of the mutation.]

Identification and analysis of fungi are two functions of [Mushroom Farm].

The former can be used on anything, while the latter is specific to fungi.

The level of detail in the identification results is certainly not as good as that of fungal analysis.

After all, this is a fungus-based system, not a deconstruction system that can deconstruct everything.

Laiya felt a little uncomfortable when Li Nuo looked at her.

She raised her hand and pressed down the brim of her hat to cover her mutated forehead.

Li Nuo returned to the topic and said thoughtfully:

"I can sell you sample-grade mushrooms. However, I don't accept ration cards. Have you ever encountered bioluminescent fungi in the ruins?"

"Glowing fungi?" Leia frowned slightly and muttered:

"There are a lot of glowing things in the ruins, but they are generally dangerous and are likely to carry radiation. I know a few relatively safe light sources, but they don't seem to have anything to do with fungi... Oh, I remember."

Leia snapped her fingers excitedly:

"There is indeed a kind of fungus that can glow. It has no radiation, but is highly toxic. It looks similar to a jellyfish and likes to hover one or two meters above the ground, using fluorescence to attract insects to itself and then using its tentacles to prey on them. We call it fluorescent spores."

As Leia spoke, she used her hands to gesture the shape and size of the fluorescent spores.

This fungus is not very big.

The largest individual is only about the size of an adult man's fist.

The light they emit is milky white and can illuminate a range of three to ten meters around them.

Li Nuo was quite interested.

The lamp in the residence is a promethium lamp that burns promethium. The original owner's father bought this expensive lamp so that the original owner could read at night.

The light of the promethium lamp is bluish-white, which is too dazzling, and it produces exhaust gas when burning, which is harmful to health.

Find a way to make the fluorescent spores less toxic and use them as a replacement for the promethium lamps.

It not only saves the gas bill for purchasing promethium, but also ensures good health, achieving the best of both worlds.

Li Nuo immediately made the decision:

"Then it's settled. Twenty kilograms of common mushrooms, and I'll give you three hundred ration cards.

“In addition, I will give you two kilograms of sample-grade mushrooms as a deposit for the purchase of fluorescent spores.

"My request is that you bring me at least fifty living fluorescent spores, no matter how big or small. After that, I will give you three kilograms of sample-grade mushrooms as the balance. Is this arrangement okay?"

Twenty kilograms of ordinary mushrooms were priced at three hundred ration cards, which was obviously higher than the price at the stall.

But such a premium did not cause Laya to be disgusted, she even felt it was a bit low.

Most of the people in the Lower Nest have never been to school and do not know that the Empire has a strict classification system for mutants. In their general understanding, ordinary people who come into contact with mutants are at risk of being infected by mutants.

Because of this, the people of Xiachao feel that doing business with mutants is very dangerous, and the prices of goods purchased by mutants naturally rise.

In fact, whether mutants will spread mutations depends on what causes their mutations.

Gene mutations caused by radiation generally do not have the conditions for transmission.

Mutations caused by germs in the material universe are bound to be contagious. There is no need to say more about mutations caused by supernatural factors, as contagiousness is only a basic function.

What Laiya didn't know was that Li Nuo had used identification techniques to confirm in advance that the mutated parts of her body were not contagious, which was why he chose to do business with her.

"Your offer is reasonable. I have enough money to buy mushrooms. Besides, it shouldn't be a problem to capture fifty living fluorescent spores. Although these little things are poisonous, as long as I'm careful, I can still get enough."

Leia smiled happily.

Li Nuo pointed to the entrance of the alley:
"Well, wait here for a moment while I go outside and bring the mushrooms over. I'll give you the sample you have."

"Thank you." Leia responded with a smile.

Li Nuo turned and ran away, his mind flashing quickly through the stinking ditches, garbage cans and puddles he passed by, and he finally chose one of them as his destination.

After a while, he turned into another alley.

After making sure that there was no one around, Li Nuo rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a handful of mushrooms from the fungus warehouse, and sank them into the accumulated water in the pit.

Stagnant water will contaminate mushrooms, and pathogens and impurities will penetrate into the stems, gills and caps.

At this moment, Li Nuo was like a black-hearted boss, cooking dark dishes in completely unsanitary conditions.

After a moment, the work of reducing the mushroom's quality was completed.

Li Nuo tried taking a bite. Pah, it was exactly the same as the one sold at the stall. He wondered what kind of water the stall owner used to water the mycelium.

From now on, I will let the system use dirty water to cultivate mushrooms for trading, and I will still use the purified water provided by the system for the mushrooms I eat on a daily basis.

Li Nuo shook off the water droplets on the mushrooms as quickly as possible, stuffed them all into a woven bag, and took out another small bag to put the sample-grade mushrooms in.

Li Nuo returned to the alley where Laiya was, stopped breathlessly, and handed over the two bags.

Laiya quickly counted the items and put the bulging bag in front of Li Nuo:
"There are three hundred ration cards in this bag. Keep them. Can we set the next transaction for the night after tomorrow?"

"Okay, let's set it for the night after tomorrow." Li Nuo added:

"By the way, bring more ration cards. I will bring more common mushrooms next time. I think it will reach about 40 kilograms."

Leia's eyes lit up:
"Forty kilograms, I'll have to ask my companions to help. Will there be this many mushrooms in the future? You don't have to worry about me not having enough money. As long as you have some to sell, I can eat as much as you want."

Li Nuo can't give an answer at the moment.

He had only been here for a few days and was not quite sure what the consequences would be of expanding his mushroom sales.

This is the Warhammer world, a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones, and it ranks first among the worlds least liked by time travelers.

Even a Primarch could get into danger due to carelessness, let alone an ordinary Underhive boy.

If you want to survive in this world, you must proceed step by step, steadily and cautiously, and make plans before you act.

"We'll talk about the future later. For now, we'll set the transaction volume at 40 kilograms per transaction, with one transaction every two days. Let's start from next time."

"Yeah! Okay. I'll be leaving first then."

Leia heaved the bag over her shoulder and headed deeper into the darkness of the alley.

Li Nuo stroked the ration card hidden under his clothes and nodded secretly.

Now that the production and sales chain of milk mushrooms has been established and I have a stable source of income, it is time to implement the second survival plan.

Milk mushrooms solved the problem of eating, so the next step was to solve the problem of drinking water.

As for wealth.

There is no need to pursue wealth deliberately.

It is just a by-product obtained in the process of solving one's own survival needs in accordance with the guidance of Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory.
