I became a farmer in the apocalypse.

Back then, Xu Huanjun was able to buy a house with Zou Baoli by becoming a Brain Domain Evolver and receiving a million points as a reward from the base.

Before this, the Xu family was just as poor as hers. Three years ago, during the famine, Xu Huanjun almost starved to death, just like her. It was only after the original owner got a job at the weaving factory that she worked overtime and saved food rations to help the Xu family survive that famine.

Jiang Li wanted the million points, but was worried that the superhumans would be captured for research. After thinking it over, she decided to hold back and observe the attitude of the base's higher-ups towards the appearance of superhumans.

Jiang Yan is weighing the vegetables he has bought over the past few days.

Two days ago, Jiang Li forced the growth of 20 jin of eggplants, and today she forced the growth of 22 jin of chili peppers.

"It weighs a total of 42 jin (21 catties)."

"Sister, I'll take the vegetables to eldest sister's first." Jiang Yan, carrying a basket on her back and wearing a raincoat, reminded Jiang Li before leaving, "Remember to feed Zhu Cuihua!"

After Jiang Yan left, Jiang Li fed Zhu Cuihua two cooked eggplants.

Zhu Cuihua ate it all up.

These days, Zhu Cuihua occasionally looks at the scenery outside the safe house and sheds tears, probably still missing her mother.

As Jiang Li looked at Zhu Cuihua, she wondered how she should eat her in the future—whether to raise her until she was fully grown or to eat her when she was still a baby.

The pork belly is tender, has a high water content, and a milder flavor.

Adult pork is firmer and chewier.

Zhu Cuihua unintentionally met Jiang Li's gaze and saw lust for her body in his eyes. Her expression immediately became tense.

It ran away with a "thump thump thump," and shrank back to a place far away from Jiang Li. Then it buried its head in its hooves and sobbed silently. It probably felt that after its mother left, it had also become a prisoner. This life was really torturous, and the pig had no hope at all.

"Eldest sister, these are eggplants and green peppers that my second sister asked me to bring over."

Jiang Yan dumped the eggplants and peppers onto Jiang Tang's stall, instantly piling them into two small mountains.

Jiang Tang picked up a few green peppers and saw that they were bright green, glossy, and very appealing.

She smiled. "Why is there more this time than last time? It must weigh around forty pounds, right?"

Jiang Yan scratched his head awkwardly.

He had asked his second sister the same question.

My second sister said that her wood-type superpower would become stronger by eating. She eats every day, so she becomes stronger every day than the day before, and the vegetables she grows will also increase day by day.

The way my second sister enhances her superpowers is indeed simple and unpretentious.

"Big sister, anyway... there will be more and more vegetables in the future, so you should hurry up and sell them."

After saying this, Jiang Yan turned and left, still afraid that Jiang Tang would ask more questions.

"Xiao Yan! Wait a minute!"

Jiang Yan ignored him and quickened his pace.

"I bought you new clothes, here you go!"

New clothes?

Jiang Yan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ran back.

"Big sister, what new clothes did you buy me? Let me see."

Jiang Tang handed over the pre-prepared packaging bag, which contained a 599-point outfit for Jiang Li and two 99-point outfits for Jiang Yan.

"This is Xiao Li's, and this is yours. Take it with you."

Jiang Yan was overjoyed. "Big sister, you're so kind! You still remember me!"

Looking at his silly expression, Jiang Tang realized that the simple-minded boy was indeed easily satisfied.

"I'll buy you regular cotton clothes when I have more money. You can wear these two for now."

Jiang Yan shook his head, "No need, why waste that money? You can buy more for yourself and your second sister. I'm a boy, I just need to have something to wear, I don't need to wear something so comfortable."

Jiang Yan left the market with the clothes in his arms, eager to go back and try them on.

As soon as I stepped out of the market, someone approached me and offered me a cigarette. "Young man, I saw you carrying a basket going in earlier. Were you delivering vegetables?"

Jiang Yan nodded.

"Where do you get your vegetables from? Do you have a supply chain? Could you introduce me to your supply chain? I'd like to start a vegetable business, but I don't have a source of vegetables."

Nowadays, most vegetable vendors in the market actually source their produce from various external channels, and very few grow their own. They negotiate purchase prices with these suppliers and then sell the produce to earn commissions.

"I don't have any connections," Jiang Yan said, shaking his head. "These are vegetables I grow myself."

"I see."

The man sighed and turned to leave.

If it's grown by myself, it's probably not much, and I doubt I gave it to him for distribution.

These days, it's really not easy to do business. You need connections and channels, especially for scarce things like vegetables and grains.

Inside the farmers' market.

Jiang Tang discovered that her stall had the most vegetables in the entire market.

It weighs over 40 jin (approximately 20 kg), which is more than the combined amount of vegetables from two other stalls.

"I never would have guessed, Jiang, you're quite the boss!" Brother Wang from the next stall said, noticing that Jiang Tang was even more formidable than the day before yesterday.

Jiang Tang chuckled. She wasn't some big boss; it was all arranged by her sister.

When she has time, she still needs to ask Xiao Li where all these vegetables came from. Xiao Li's seeds were just planted, so it's unlikely that she grew them herself.

Eggplants and green peppers were neatly arranged, and soon a crowd gathered around the stall.

"These green peppers must have been grown in a greenhouse, right?" someone asked.

It's only early spring now. Given the climate here, green peppers don't come to market until May. It's only March, so they can only be grown in greenhouses.

"It looks delicious, give me some, I'm having stir-fried green peppers with pork tonight."

"I'll have some too..."

I'll buy some eggplants.

Points credited: 134.

Points credited: 175.

Points credited: 50.

Points credited: 82.

"..."

Jiang Tang was so busy she was dizzy. After selling all the vegetables, she checked her points: 4450.

They've struck it rich.

In just two hours, 4450 points were sold, and the green peppers and eggplants were completely sold out.

Fortunately, Jiang Tang had secretly slipped a few into her bag beforehand, intending to take them home and eat them herself.

Just as I was packing up, someone came over and asked:

"Boss, do you have any vegetables left?"

Jiang Tang immediately shook her head, "No, they're all sold out."

Jiang Tang transferred 2520 points to Jiang Li, leaving her with 1930 points.

Jiang Tang couldn't stop smiling as she earned so many points at once.

I originally thought my life would be tougher after the divorce, but to my surprise, things have taken a turn for the better! Now I can earn a month's worth of points in a single day, and money is flowing into my pocket like water.

It's all thanks to Xiao Li! Xiao Li is so amazing and successful now!

Jiang Tang was happy for herself and her sister, and planned to splurge a little that evening and treat herself to a nice dish.

"Brother Wang, I'd like to buy a pound of pork."

"Okay!" Brother Wang said with a smile, "I'll pick out a good one for you."

Jiang Tang took the pork, went to the spice shop to exchange it for some seasonings, and also went to the general store to buy some household items. Carrying large and small bags of things, she returned to No. 9 Community.

Once away from the area with many wealthy people, Jiang Tang immediately sensed the disparity within the safe zone.

In the clean and tidy vegetable market, there are many people with shiny faces and good clothes. When you are in the vegetable market, you always feel like you have returned to the pre-apocalyptic world. Everyone is living an ordinary life, buying vegetables and cooking every day as usual, and no one is hungry.

But once you leave the affluent area, you can see people everywhere on the street, ashen-faced and emaciated, as well as many homeless people with nowhere to go.

These homeless people carry their bedding with them and find a secluded corner to spend the night.
