Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

Chang Dongning still didn't let Chang Xuan eat much stir-fried food, as the fiber was too coarse and she was afraid he wouldn't be able to digest it. She went to the storage room and secretly took out some pickled vegetables that she had stored in her space to eat with Chang Xuan's rice.

Xiao Changxuan eats rice ravenously on his own, and it tastes even better with pickled vegetables. He has absolutely no objection to his mother not allowing him to eat stir-fried dishes.

The acorn tofu was successfully made the next morning. Chang Dongning felt a great sense of accomplishment looking at its bouncy texture and light brown solid. She took a little and tested it with her watch.

"Low radiation, non-toxic, unknown organism, consume with caution."

Chang Dongning cut a large piece, put it in a box, and then put a few acorns in his basket.

"Xuanxuan, come on, Mom will take you to the trading hall."

"Can I go too?" Chang Xuan asked in surprise. Ever since he could remember, he had basically been confined to his home.

"Sure, we can take you there today in the safe zone." Given the limited resources, there's no other option but to keep the child locked at home. This kind of activity within the safe zone is definitely something we want to do to let him see the outside world.

The trading hall wasn't far for Chang Dongning, but it was quite a distance for Chang Xuan's short legs, leaving him breathless from the walk.

"Mommy will hug you."

"No, Xuanxuan can walk."

In the wasteland, children shouldn't be spoiled too much, so Chang Dongning didn't insist on carrying him. Instead, she slowed down and walked with him.

Trading Center

"Hello, I need to deliver new food."

"Okay, what kind is it?"

"Starch-based." Chang Dongning took out the box, revealing the acorn tofu inside, which was trembling slightly.

"Huh? This has been processed?" The staff member was surprised. Usually, when people come to hand in new plants to earn points, they only bring leaves, roots, fruits, and the like. It's rare to see something that has been processed into a finished product.

"right."

"What is it made of?"

"A tree that produces a large quantity of fruit."

"Please wait a moment." The staff member turned around and called his supervisor over, then invited Chang Dongning into the meeting room.

After introducing themselves, Chang Dongning first helped Chang Xuan to a chair and sat down, while she sat beside him, waiting for their test results.

Minister Zhang poured water for the mother and son and gave Chang Xuan a piece of candy.

Chang Dongning unwrapped the candy and fed it to Chang Xuan, saying, "Hold it in your mouth and don't swallow."

Changxuan wasn't used to meeting strangers, and he tugged at his mother's clothes somewhat timidly. His eyes lit up as soon as the candy entered his mouth, but he still didn't dare to speak.

Chang Dongning wasn't in a hurry; he touched his dry, brittle hair.

Half an hour later, the test results came back: starchy foods, which can fill you up. Those two things are enough. As for the other possible side effects, humans in the wasteland don't care at all. Survival is the priority before worrying about side effects.

"Chang Dongning, according to the regulations, submitting edible starchy foods will earn you a reward of 500 points. If you have a large quantity of such foods, the reward will be doubled. Yours is processed, so the preparation method will earn you an additional 200 points. May I ask what this food is made of and how it is prepared?" Minister Zhang sat up straight and asked solemnly.

"There are many. You know where beans are harvested, right? The fruits of those very tall trees are the raw materials for making this food." Chang Dongning took out the unprocessed acorns from his basket.

Minister Zhang stood up excitedly: "You mean, that grove of trees!"

At first, he thought it was made from the roots of some kind of plant and was able to sit on it. But when he heard it was the fruit of that tree, he couldn't sit still anymore. Chang Dongning didn't dare to go in, not knowing how big the forest was. The staff in their safe zone knew the inside story.

"Hmm, I don't dare go further in. I don't know if all the trees inside are like this."

Yes, yes, and there are so many fruits! Minister Zhang's face turned red with excitement. Today's class was excellent. Such a large field of fruits that could fill one's stomach. He had submitted them when he was in office. He had a good chance of being promoted.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'll go apply for the maximum reward for you."

Chang Dongning blinked. "So that's how you get a name?"

Chang Xuan looked curiously at the strange uncle who wasn't walking properly: "Mom."

"It's alright, Uncle is just too happy, and Mom is happy too."

Chang Xuan smiled with his lips pursed. His mother was happy, and so was Xuan Xuan, though he didn't know why.

A short while later, Minister Zhang returned, in a good mood, and said, "Ms. Chang, I have applied for the highest amount of points reward for you. Including the production method, it's a total of two thousand points, which will be credited to your account in five days. The points required for testing will not be deducted."

Chang Dongning nodded. The points had exceeded her expectations. As for the delay in receiving the money, it would be after the official batch of acorn tofu was made and confirmed.

"Is there anything else you need?"

"Minister Zhang, did the officials bring ordinary people with them when they went to that forest to collect samples?"

"As is customary, some family members will be brought along." This is also a perk that the safe zone provides to gene warriors.

"Could I have a spot? I'm too scared to go too far out by myself; I want to explore the depths of the forest."

"Okay, add me on WeChat. Once we confirm the time, I'll let you know." Minister Zhang tapped his watch twice.

"Okay." Chang Dongning added, "Oh, by the way, once the reward comes in, I'd like to buy a refrigerated freezer for the house. Do you know of any cheap suppliers?"

"There really are some. If you don't mind, there are some appliances and tools that the big shots in the inner district have discarded. They're of good quality and reasonably priced," Minister Zhang suggested based on her situation.

He had already checked Chang Dongning's situation in the household registration system. In the past two or three years, his parents had passed away one after another, he had taken an awakening drug once but failed to awaken, and in the past year, he had begun to sell his family's belongings.

"As long as it works, that's fine." She's poor now, what right does she have to complain?

"It'll definitely work well, they're all high-end versions. I'll keep an eye out for you. Is there anything else you want?"

Chang Dongning knew that the most basic refrigerated freezer cost about 500 to 600 points, but she didn't know how expensive the high-end secondhand freezer was.

How much does a used freezer typically cost?

"About four or five hundred points."

"Ah, my reward is still enough, so let's buy another temperature regulator," Chang Dongning said.

The Chang family used to have one, which was more advanced than their old air conditioner. It was about the size of a book, and could be broken into several pieces to be placed in different rooms so that the temperature could be adjusted separately.

"I suggest you buy a new one, a regular model will be enough, it'll cost around 1,000 points. I'll have the trading department pick out a good one for you."

"Okay, thank you, Minister Zhang." She was also a spendthrift; she had already spent most of the points she hadn't yet earned.

However, these two things are necessities. The refrigerators in the wasteland world are amazing. A fresh leaf can stay the same for up to six months, and even if it wilts, it won't rot.
