Chapter 65: What's it to me? What's it to you?

After seeing off Li Hua, the two of them arrived at a hot pot restaurant. It was like bringing brothers into the city, enjoying hot pot and singing songs, feeling extremely content.

"By the way, Da Li, I need to go to the South Jiang City's Beast Resources Bureau this afternoon. What do you think?" Chen Shu picked up a piece of beef tripe and asked.

He still had fifty Huaxia Points left to redeem. If he didn't spend them, he would probably have nightmares even when sleeping.

Da Li replied, "Me? I have a training class at the Spirit Kitchen this afternoon, so I might not be able to go."

"Alright then, study hard and cook specially for my slime in the future."

Half an hour later, the two of them were full and satisfied. Suddenly, the atmosphere seemed to become silent. They looked at each other, no longer speaking a word, as if invisible gun smoke filled the air.

Da Li was the first to break the silence and said, "Chen Pi, it's time to pay the bill..."

"Hello?" Chen Shu naturally took out his phone and said, "Yes, it's me. What's the matter? I'll be there soon."

Da Li's face was speechless. "Chen Pi..."

"Shh!" Chen Shu made a gesture to keep quiet and whispered, "I'm making a phone call, a multi-million-dollar deal."

"Chen Pi..." Da Li's forehead was covered in black lines as he spoke up again.

Chen Shu waved his hand again and said, "Mr. Liu, have the contract ready. I'll come and sign it!"

After speaking, Chen Shu prepared to get up and leave as a matter of course.

"Chen Pi!" Zhang Da Li suddenly slapped the table and said, "You've got your phone upside down!"

I mean, if you're going to pretend, at least pretend a little better. You actually took me, Zhang Da Li, for a fool!

Chen Shu's expression froze in an instant, and the next moment he awkwardly smiled and said, "No wonder I couldn't hear anything."

"Are you planning to run away or something?" Zhang Da Li scrutinized Chen Shu, his eyes filled with suspicion.

"Am I the type of person who would do that?" Chen Shu widened his eyes and promptly settled the bill with a generous gesture.

The two of them parted ways at the hot pot restaurant.

An hour later, Chen Shu arrived at the Beast Resources Bureau in the east of the city. This was the place where Huaxia Points were used. Although all kinds of material resources were available here, few people came since Huaxia Points were not something that ordinary people could obtain.

Looking at the low-rise building in front of him, Chen Shu had his doubts. How could a government institution be constructed so hastily?

He entered the lobby and saw an old man in a vest lying on a rattan chair, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan, on the verge of falling asleep.

"Excuse me, sir!" Chen Shu crouched down, getting closer to the old man and spoke softly.

"Snooze~~~" The old man continued to squint his eyes, showing no response.

"Sir!" Chen Shu raised his voice.

"Snooze~~~"

Chen Shu shook his head, stood up, and muttered, "It's on fire..."

Suddenly, the old man instinctively stood up, his eyes filled with panic as he looked around.

"I see. You're trying to fool me, huh?"

The old man yawned, pointing his palm-leaf fan at Chen Shu, and said, "Furthermore, this is a government institution. How dare you trespass, young man? Be careful, or I'll have the people from the Town Spirit Bureau arrest you!"

Why would you arrest me, a law-abiding citizen, when I'm here to redeem my points?

Chen Shu shook his head and said, "Sir, I'm here to exchange Huaxia Points!"

"What do you want to exchange?"

"Huaxia Points!"

"What Huaxia?"

"Points!"

"What points?"

"Forget it! Sir, you can continue resting."

"Alright!" The old man stretched lazily and lay back on the rattan chair.

Chen Shu was speechless. Communication was really difficult here. Is your hearing functioning properly or not?

He walked directly into the lobby, where there happened to be a young woman behind the counter.

"Hello, I'm here to use Huaxia Points."

"Please present your ID!"

The staff member glanced at Chen Shu, her eyes filled with surprise. Especially when she saw his ID, her mouth opened slightly.

A student could actually obtain Huaxia Points?

"Hello, this is the redemption manual."

The staff member handed him a small green booklet.

Chen Shu couldn't wait and immediately opened it to see what was inside.

The Beasts' Pearl Series:

[Low-grade Beasts' Pearl: 1 point]

[Mid-grade Beasts' Pearl: 3 points]

[High-grade Beasts' Pearl: 6 points]

[Basic-level Beasts' True Pearl: 5 points]

[Black Iron-level Beasts' True Pearl: 20 points]

...

The Potion Series:

[Low-grade Strength Potion: 0.5 points]

[Mid-grade Strength Potion: 1 point]

[High-grade Strength Potion: 3 points]

[Basic Body Enhancement Potion: 3 points]

...

The Materials Series:

[Power Flower: 3 points]

[Level 1 Enlargement Fruit: 4 points]

...

As Chen Shu glanced at it, almost everything was there, but as an apprentice Beast Tamer, there were no resources mentioned above Black Iron level.

In addition, Huaxia Points could be directly exchanged for Huaxia Currency, with a conversion rate of one point equal to twenty thousand.

In other words, completing the mission of hunting the Ice Wilderness Rabbit Lord could reward him with up to one million Huaxia Currency!

However, Chen Shu had no intention of converting it into Huaxia Currency. After thinking for a moment, he decided to exchange it for medicinal herbs.

Currently, the medicinal herbs in the dimensional space were becoming increasingly rare. Even the 666 Pharmaceutical Company no longer had a supply of Power Flowers. Zhou Xiaoming's shop hadn't received any medicinal herbs for half a month, and even the majority of the black market shops were sold out.

Nurturing medicinal herbs naturally took a considerable amount of time, so they would undoubtedly become scarcer. The future trend would inevitably involve major companies directly collaborating with Beast Taming groups. Private small shops would lose their supply sources and naturally go out of business, and official material stores would also no longer sell their products easily.

"I want five Level 1 Enlargement Fruits and seven Level 1 Iron Core Fruits," Chen Shu said.

"That will be a total of forty-eight points," the staff member smiled.

The value of Iron Core Fruits and Enlargement Fruits was equivalent, both requiring four points. If measured by market price, they definitely weren't worth 960,000.

But the problem was that he couldn't buy them anywhere. Chen Shu didn't have time to wait; he valued efficiency!

Chen Shu's golden slime could consume up to twenty bottles of Body Enhancement Potion and twenty-five bottles of Defense Potion. Naturally, he would prioritize filling these two attributes.

Soon, the staff member brought out the medicinal herbs from the warehouse.

The advantage of Huaxia Points was that there was no limit to exchanging anything. Even if they were out of stock in Nanjiang City, they would be sourced from all over the country for you.

"No need for a bag, just put them here," Chen Shu said, taking out a blue urinal bag from his backpack.

"Uh...," the staff member's mouth twitched. What kind of person carries around a urinal bag?

Chen Shu packed all the medicinal herbs into his backpack, whistling as he prepared to leave.

"Hey, kid, what's the use of buying so many medicinal herbs? Are you planning to grow them at home?" the old man at the entrance, lightly shaking his fan, asked, "I really don't understand the importance of Huaxia Points. Is there something fishy about your points?"

Chen Shu smiled slightly and replied, "Old man, have you heard that the stray dog outside the black market gave birth to puppies? Do you know about this?"

"What's it got to do with me?" the old man didn't understand. What's wrong with this guy? His thoughts jump so quickly.

"Then it's none of your business if I exchange things with my own points!" Chen Shu said.

"...," the old man was instantly speechless.
