In Times of Famine, I Have a Daily Discount System

When Chen Sanbao was so hungry that he fainted from hunger in his adobe house in Hualien Village, he stumbled and hit the "daily discount system" - every day when he opened his eyes, there were flash sale options. Sometimes he chose one of two, and sometimes he could grab two or three items in a row: 20 copper plates for 1 tael of silver, 1 copper plate for 100 kilograms of polished rice, and broken silver for a carbon steel knife that can chop firewood like mud. It all depends on the luck of the day. At first, he only dared to exchange rice to fill his stomach, fearing that the money would be exposed; later, he saved the remaining money and used system benefits to exchange for two loyal brothers, exploring the back mountains and staring at rabbit holes. Gradually, the grain tank at home was full, the adobe house was renovated, and he became a man who can take care of things in the village. But the peaceful days did not last long when Hualien Village suffered a disaster: first the drought cut off the harvest, and then the epidemic spread, and the villagers died and fled. Chen Sanbao escaped first with his mother and a few cronies, relying on the food and herbs that the system had been selling for days. On the way, he met many fellow villagers who were fleeing. He saved people with the materials exchanged through the system, and also exchanged more loyal helpers, slowly gathering a group of people. No longer just looking forward to "living in peace", he learned to use the system to plan routes, prepare supplies, and build up his own small influence bit by bit on the way to escape, just to protect the people around him and make a way out in troubled times.
