"Senior Sister, B-grade perception can only be used for the logistics department. Sigh."
Meng Huai thought with a bitter smile, remembering how he was once looked down upon like this.
Qiu Han exclaimed in shock, "Ah? You have B-grade perception?"
Before Qiu Han could recover from the shock of the B-grade perception, she saw the items Meng Huai had displayed on his stall and asked again, "What is this?"
Meng Huai had prepared some ordinary spirit plants. These were low-grade on the Wuqi Continent, but they were rare in this era.
This was because plants were very difficult to grow in this era, and suitable soil was virtually non-existent. Even the food they ate was just substitutes. It wasn't impossible to eat vegetables truly grown in soil, but they were very expensive.
Ornamental plants like flowers were even rarer. They were usually kept in museums or research institutes, and personal collections were few and far between.
Qiu Han leaned closer and realized they were real flowers, then said, "Are these... real flowers? They're so well-kept."
"Yes, Senior Sister. If you like it, I'll give you one."
To Meng Huai, these spirit plants were not particularly precious, but his senior sister certainly couldn't take them for free.
"No, no, I'll buy it. This one is very beautiful, and it smells nice too. How much is it?"
The senior sister held a bunch of spirit plants with yellow flowers to her nose, feeling a sense of relief from the flower's fragrance.
"This is called a Butterfly Orchid. It has the effect of calming the mind and nourishing the spirit, making it perfect for a bedroom."
The mecha major senior sister didn't pay much attention to Meng Huai's words. After all, a seller would always praise their goods, and it was up to the buyer to judge the authenticity.
However, this senior sister genuinely liked the flowers and opened her optical computer to ask, "I really like it. Junior Sister, how much is it? I'll transfer it to you."
Meng Huai thought that she still had plenty of these spirit plants in her spatial ring, and they weren't worth much. But she hadn't seen many flowers and plants here, so she wondered if it was something novel.
So Meng Huai quoted a price, saying, "Senior Sister, just give me twenty star coins."
Enough for four days of nutrient solution, Meng Huai thought happily. But then she remembered, when had she, the Sect Master of the Xuli Sect, ever been excited by such a small amount of money! Times had truly changed, and her adaptability was quite high.
The mecha major senior sister was stunned when she heard twenty star coins. What could twenty star coins do? Even a fake flower bouquet would cost over a hundred star coins, and a small one at that.
So the mecha major senior sister said, "Okay, open your optical computer, and I'll transfer it to you."
Then, she directly transferred two hundred star coins.
Seeing so much money, Meng Huai felt embarrassed to accept it. She tried to return some of it, but the senior sister refused.
"Don't, don't. Two hundred star coins for a real flower bouquet is a bargain for me. Just accept it with peace of mind."
After much back and forth, Meng Huai had no choice but to accept the two hundred star coins, though she still felt that twenty star coins was enough for an ordinary spirit plant.
So she looked at her spatial ring again and took out a magic robe, handing it to the mecha major senior sister.
"Here, Senior Sister. This defensive magic robe is a gift to celebrate my opening day."
Meng Huai's hand trembled slightly as she handed over the item. This was the last magical artifact she had refined. It was of high quality and could withstand her full power attack.
However, happiness was most important. It was because this senior sister was so kind and they got along so well.
But this mecha major senior sister clearly didn't know how powerful this magic robe was, but she would ask if she didn't understand.
"Magic robe? It's very pretty. Why is it called a magic robe?"
Women have no resistance to beautiful clothes, regardless of the era.
Meng Huai had used phoenix feathers for this magic robe, making it light and beautiful. The senior sister couldn't take her eyes off it as soon as she received it, and she stood up to put it on.
The loose clothing magically adjusted to her figure the moment she put it on.
The senior sister exclaimed in surprise, "This, this clothes can shrink automatically!"
"Of course. This magic robe can also resist attacks."
Isn't fitting the owner's figure a characteristic of a magic robe?
As for resisting attacks, the mecha major senior sister just listened for fun. But without thinking, she blurted out, "Can it resist the attacks of star beasts too?"
"Of course."
Although Meng Huai hadn't seen the star beasts of this era, she was very confident in her magic robe.
Before the two could discuss the defensive capabilities against star beasts further, someone else approached Meng Huai's stall.
This was a middle-aged man named Di Wen, who clearly wasn't a military academy student. He was just passing by and wasn't particularly interested in the stalls.
He just casually glanced at some flowers and plants casually tossed on the ground, thinking, these plants are made quite realistically. Di Wen didn't think much of it, as there were too many simulation plants. But after walking a few meters, he felt something was wrong and turned back.
Di Wen stopped at Meng Huai's stall and squatted down to carefully examine the casually discarded flowers and plants.
"Excuse me, may I pick them up and take a look?"
Di Wen was very polite. Although these items seemed to be unappreciated, he still asked if he could touch them.
"Feel free."
Meng Huai was still discussing some mecha knowledge with this mecha major senior sister, Qiu Han. Hearing someone ask, she told him he could. The items were placed here, and there was no reason not to let people touch them.
Di Wen picked up a flower with great reverence. The flower even had some soil on it. Di Wen rubbed the soil and realized it wasn't the current soil, which contained many acidic elements. It didn't have that creepy sticky feeling.
"This is truly amazing. How much are these flowers?"
"Twenty star coins each. Feel free to pick any you like."
