Chapter 1036 - 576: The End of the Lottery and the Strategic Significance of Sweet Potatoes

The nature represented by these two situations is completely different.

Zong Shen’s "profitable venture" is built on his spending of a large amount of points and consecutive draws.

The logic is similar to discussing toxicity without considering dosage or power without measurability.

Discussing yield without the frequency of draws and total spent points is just pointless.

Zong Shen, thinking to himself, moved to close the 1000-point option for draws.

Now only the lowest 500-point option with a ten-draw discount remains.

After the discount, the ten-draw only requires 4500 points.

This points cost doesn’t cause any ripples in Zong Shen’s heart anymore.

He distinctly remembers how he used to carefully ponder and calculate before playing the 500-point draw.

Times have changed, thirty days east of the river, thirty days west of the river, don’t underestimate Zong!

After finishing the ten draws for the 500-point option, Zong Shen will reconsider the remaining points.

He first opened his personal storage grid to take a look.

He confirmed that the rewards from the recent draws lay snugly in the empty spaces of his storage grid. Luckily, he frequently upgraded [Item Management], allowing his storage grid to hold over a hundred items. Otherwise, it wouldn’t accommodate so many personal items.

Resource overflow and item overflow are likely one of the troubles of the big shots, a bittersweet predicament.

After confirming the rewards were safe, Zong Shen chose to reopen the [Points Lottery] option, and directly selected the 500-point draw for ten rounds!

The original small roulette emerged, still with ten pointers, and it began to spin.

Zong Shen lazily yawned.

The expensive options have been drawn, so now there’s no anticipation.

Especially since the cost is lower, there’s less care in his heart.

After all, it’s just a mere 4500 points!

The roulette quickly stopped, and the ten pointers flickered slightly, disintegrating into light particles, rapidly reconstituting into the drawn item subtitles.

[Prize Successfully Drawn]

[Tier Two Wolf Cavalry Recruitment Scroll ×1]

[Protective Fur Helmet (Blue) ×1]

[Smoked Horse Meat (White) ×1]

[Seed of the Wild (Blue) ×1]

[Foul Fish Eye (Gray) ×1]

[Token of the Mizang (Unknown) ×1]

[Nord Advancement Book (Blue) ×1]

[Fresh Sweet Potato Vine (White) ×1]

[Broken Cast Iron Key (Gray) ×1]

[Tier Four Deep Salt Well Construction Blueprint (Purple) ×1]

With the appearance of subtitles, all the items Zong Shen drew in the 500-point option were automatically collected into the storage grid.

In this point lottery option, most reward items are of lower than blue tier.

However, he’s reasonably lucky, not only getting an unknown item but also drawing a Tier Four Rare Level building blueprint.

As for the other items, they are not bad either.

[Nord Advancement Book (Blue)], which perfectly meets the Nord soldiers’ requirements for advancing from Tier Two to Tier Three.

Tiezhu happens to be a Tier Two Nord Shadow Scout, using this advancement book will elevate him to Tier Three Scout.

And the [Fresh Sweet Potato Vine (White)], although its tier is only white, is still quite useful. It can be planted to cultivate high-yield sweet potato crops!

After observation over this period, he hasn’t found a trace of sweet potatoes within Boss Bang’s territory.

The grain crops within Bang City territories mainly consist of wheat, alongside some potatoes.

But compared to the sweet and glutinous sweet potatoes, potatoes are somewhat inferior.

Besides being used as a staple food, sweet potatoes can also be employed for making sugar and starch.

Known as an excellent miscellaneous grain crop, it’s suitable for territory cultivation.

Zong Shen immediately closed the [Points Lottery], immersed his mind in the storage grid, and quickly located that stretch of vibrant green sweet potato vine.

This thing is easy to survive, even if cut into pieces and planted, merely watering can lead to a substantial survival rate, as long as the planted segments have enough bud nodes.

Especially during the rainy summer and autumn seasons.

The cooler winter and spring are not suitable for sweet potato planting.

These are common knowledge; sweet potatoes are truly a valuable asset!

With a flip of his hand, he took out the segment of sweet potato vine roughly eighty centimeters long.

His eyes fixed on the vine to check its attributes.

[Fresh Sweet Potato Vine (White)]

[Quality: Ordinary]

[Sweet potato vine with still viable activity, can be planted for cultivation]

(A miscellaneous grain crop transmitted from the Southeast Island of the Eastern Continent 863 years ago, due to environmental influences, it has a greater yield and survival rate than Earth’s sweet potatoes, serving as a staple food for islanders. It has sparse cultivation presence in the southern, western, and eastern regions of the continent, with no trace in the northern areas)

Indeed, this truly is the sweet potato vine he had thought about!

He didn’t expect that even in the Endless Continent, there would be such a presence!

Moreover, the strategy notes denote its origin from the islands beyond the southeast coast.

This fact reminded him of how Huaxia’s sweet potatoes were brought back from Southeast Asia.

With the tender sweet potato vine in hand, his mood inexplicably improved.

The little vine in his hands stirred an inexplicable excitement in him.

He couldn’t hide it; the innate farming instinct within his bloodline has finally awakened!

This delighted state of mind reminded him of the time he recruited Korby.
