Making Money Just By Breathing - Chapter 3.2: Gourmet Perception
But, it has nothing to do with money.
Wang Yanguang was a bit disappointed, but as he continued reading, he gradually became happy.
The description is: a passive skill that allows you to vaguely sense the quality of ingredients and pick out the best ones.
After some contemplation, Wang Yanguang finally realized: in the future, there’s no need to worry about picking a not-so-sweet watermelon.
Whenever he went out to pick a watermelon, he would always get the one with the sweet watery taste in it, how cool was that?
Although it has nothing to do with money, Wang Yanguang is still particularly happy.
After all, making money is ultimately for enjoying life, and the Gourmet Perception skill brings extra enjoyment to being a foodie!
Wang Yanguang is indeed an easily satisfied naive kid. He feels like he’s got a skill that can beat all the world’s billionaires, and the frustration from earlier completely disappears.
Next, let’s look at the basic attributes.
The system has a note:
The average value of attributes for males over 18 is 60 points, with a limit of 100 points.
60 points average, excellent above 70, genius above 80, and extraordinary genius above 90.
Seeing this, Wang Yanguang can’t help but feel a headache.
Damn, I’m really just ordinary. None of my attributes are below the passing line, but none have reached the excellent standard either.
In fact, according to the normal distribution, people like Wang Yanguang are the vast majority among the masses.
Because the evaluation of each attribute is very complex and strict.
Some people have a good memory but slightly poor logic or weak spatial imagination, so their overall intelligence score isn’t high.
Some people have excellent cardiovascular endurance, but their endurance in bed is average, so their constitution score isn’t high.
In short, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and the world is mostly made up of ordinary people. Extraordinary geniuses only appear once every few hundred years, just thinking about it gives one a headache.
…
Wang Yanguang scoops up another big spoonful of watermelon, still sweet as ever. Suddenly, an idea crosses his mind.
“Brother Xi, where did you buy this watermelon? Why is it so delicious?”
“Wu Dashi got it. I think its name is Black Honey No. 3, haven’t you tried it? I still have four at home, enough for us to eat for four days. If you like it, eat as much as you want!”
Wang Yunxi replied casually, not taking it too seriously.
Wu Dashi is a relative of Wang Yunxi, very close.
“Wu Dashi has always been staying in Wang Jia Ao, right? Why would he specially come here to sell watermelons?”
“It’s not easy to sell in the town! The land in our hometown is all sandy, and in the summer, watermelons flood the market. The Black Honey variety is good, but without the Three Stripes, it’s cheap. Gujiao City has a lot of newly rich people, easy to sell there.”
It’s a simple reason, and Wang Yanguang understands.
Wang Jia Ao, the hometown of Wang’s family, used to be a mining area with very poor soil quality, and the crops couldn’t feed the people.
In the past, when the mine wasn’t exhausted, everyone had a way to make a living. After the mine was exhausted, villagers either left the mountains or switched to growing cash crops.
Sandy soil is most suitable for growing watermelons, so the surrounding areas of Wang’s family became a major watermelon production area.
However, when Wang Yunxi said that Gujiao City was easy to sell in, Wang Yanguang had doubts.
“How do you calculate the round-trip fuel cost? Including shipping, you might not make much more, right?”
“That’s right!”
Wang Yunxi slapped his thigh. “Wu Dashi came once, couldn’t find any connections, so he could only sell to the sitting merchants in the wholesale market. After calculating everything, it’s not worth the trouble!”
“He leaves me with five melons, and he goes back blowing his beard and staring, but when the sitting merchants put them in the high-end fruit shops, our melons can sell for 5 Yuan each!”
Wang Yanguang was shocked. “Ah? Why is it so expensive?!”
“Black Honey No. 3 is a good variety, and in Wang Jia Ao, we have a mountain spring reservoir. The soil and water are very suitable for growing watermelons. The taste is much better than the mainstream varieties on the market. Wu Dashi grows them well, but unfortunately, he lacks channels.”
Wang Yunxi knew what was going on but couldn’t do anything about it. He sighed with regret.
As for Wang Yanguang, he just shrugged after hearing the explanation. In the adult world, it’s all about how to earn money, but in the world of a second generation young master or those who got rich quick, it’s only about how to spend it. He didn’t bother with those details.
If he had the time, why not think about how to enjoy tomorrow?
With the ability to casually make 2800 Yuan (393 USD) a day just by breathing, can’t he splurge a little?
He didn’t care about anything else. In the world of a god, it’s all about enjoying life!
