I cultivate mushrooms in warhammer

Using mushrooms and medicine to get rid of mutation?

Li Nuo subconsciously moved his gaze to Leia's hairline.

Since his height was lower than the other party's, Li Nuo could easily see the scale patterns hidden by the brim of her hat.

Li Nuo narrowed his eyes slightly, muttering in his heart:

“Activate Appraisal Technique on that mutated skin.”

【Appraisal Complete.】

【Name: Mutated Area】

【Description: Mild mutation of the skin's surface, not contagious. Sampling and testing of the mutated area are required to find the underlying cause of the mutation.】

Appraisal Technique and Analyzing Fungi are the two functions of 【Mushroom Farm】.

The former can be used on anything, while the latter is specifically for fungi.

The level of detail in the appraisal results is definitely not as good as the results of Analyzing Fungi.

After all, this is a fungus-based system, not a system that can deconstruct everything.

Leia felt a little unnatural under Li Nuo's gaze.

She raised her hand and pressed down on the brim of her hat, covering her mutated forehead.

Li Nuo returned to the main topic, pondering:

“I can sell you sample-grade mushrooms. However, I don't accept ration cards. Have you ever encountered luminescent fungi in the ruins?”

“Luminescent fungi?” Leia frowned slightly, muttering:

“There are many glowing things in the ruins, but they are usually dangerous and very likely to be radioactive. I know of several relatively safe light sources, but they don't seem to be related to fungi… Oh, I remember.”

Leia snapped her fingers excitedly:

“There is indeed a type of luminescent fungus. It's not radioactive, but it has a strong toxin. It looks similar to a jellyfish, likes to hover one or two meters above the ground, uses fluorescent light to attract insects, and then uses its tentacles to prey on them. We call it Fluorescent Spores.”

As Leia spoke, she used her hands to gesture the shape and size of the Fluorescent Spores.

This type of fungus is not large.

The largest individuals are only about the size of an adult man's fist.

The light they emit is milky white and can illuminate an area of three to ten meters around them.

Li Nuo was quite tempted.

The lighting in his residence was a promethium lamp that burned promethium, an expensive lamp that the original owner's father bought for him to read at night.

The light of the promethium lamp was bluish-white, too dazzling, and it produced exhaust gas when burning, which was harmful to health.

Finding a way to remove the toxicity of the Fluorescent Spores and use them to replace the promethium lamp.

This would save on the gas costs of buying promethium and ensure good health, a win-win situation.

Li Nuo immediately made a decision:

“Then it's settled. Twenty kilograms of ordinary mushrooms, I'll charge you three hundred ration cards.

“In addition, I'll give you two kilograms of sample-grade mushrooms as a deposit for buying Fluorescent Spores.

“My requirement is that you bring me at least fifty living Fluorescent Spores, size doesn't matter. After it's done, I'll give you another three kilograms of sample-grade mushrooms as the final payment. Is this arrangement okay with you?”

Twenty kilograms of ordinary mushrooms priced at three hundred ration cards was clearly higher than the price at the stall.

However, this degree of premium did not cause Leia's resentment; she even felt it was a bit low.

Most lower-hive residents have not read books and do not know that the Empire has a strict classification system for mutants. In their general perception, ordinary people who come into contact with mutants risk being infected by them.

Because of this, lower-hive residents feel that doing business with mutants is very dangerous, and the price of goods purchased by mutants naturally rises.

In fact, whether mutants spread mutations depends on what caused their mutations.

Gene mutations caused by radiation generally do not have the conditions for transmission.

Mutations caused by pathogens in the material universe must have a certain degree of contagiousness.

Mutations caused by supernatural factors go without saying; contagiousness is just a basic function.

What Leia didn't know was that Li Nuo had used Appraisal Technique in advance to confirm that the mutated area on her body was not contagious, which was why he chose to do business with her.

“Your price is reasonable, and I have enough money to buy mushrooms. In addition, capturing fifty fresh Fluorescent Spores alive should not be a problem. Although this little thing is poisonous, as long as I'm careful, I can still gather enough.”

Leia smiled happily.

Li Nuo pointed to the alley entrance:

“Then, wait here for a moment while I go outside and bring the mushrooms over. You can have the samples in your hand.”

“Thank you.” Leia responded with a smile.

Li Nuo turned and ran away, his mind quickly flashing through the stinky ditch, trash can, and puddle he had passed by, eventually choosing one of them as his destination.

Soon after, he turned into another alley.

Confirming that no one was around, Li Nuo rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a handful of mushrooms from the fungus warehouse, and submerged them in the puddle of the pit.

The puddle thoroughly defiled the mushrooms, and germs and impurities penetrated the stems, gills, and caps.

At this time, Li Nuo was like a black-hearted boss, cooking dark cuisine under completely unqualified hygienic conditions.

After a while, the work of lowering the mushroom quality was completed.

Li Nuo tried to eat a bite, and spat, it was really the same as what was sold at the stall. What kind of water did that stall owner use when watering the mycelium?

From now on, he would let the system use dirty water to cultivate mushrooms for trading, and the mushrooms he ate on weekdays would still use the pure water that came with the system.

Li Nuo shook off the water droplets on the mushrooms as quickly as possible, stuffed them all into the woven bag, and took out another small bag to hold the sample-grade mushrooms.

Returning to the alley where Leia was, Li Nuo stopped breathlessly and handed over the two bags.

Leia quickly counted them and placed the bulging cloth bag in front of Li Nuo:

“There are three hundred ration cards in this bag, keep them safe. Can we set the next transaction for the evening of the day after tomorrow?”

“Yes, let's set it for the evening of the day after tomorrow.” Li Nuo added:

“By the way, bring more ration cards. Next time, I'll bring more ordinary mushrooms, probably up to forty kilograms.”

Leia's eyes lit up:

“If it's forty kilograms, I'll have to ask my companions to help. Will there still be so many mushrooms in the future? You don't have to worry about me not having enough money. As long as you have them to sell, I can eat as much as you have.”

Li Nuo couldn't give an answer at the moment.

He had only transmigrated a few days ago and wasn't sure what the consequences would be of expanding mushroom sales.

This was the Warhammer world, a place that eats people without spitting out bones, ranking first among the worlds that transmigrators dislike the most.

Even gene primarchs would encounter danger if they were careless, let alone an ordinary lower-hive youth.

To survive in this world, one must proceed step by step, consolidate one's position, and move after careful planning.

“Let's talk about the future later. Let's temporarily set the transaction volume at forty kilograms each time, trading once every two days. Starting from next time.”

“Okay! Good. Then I'll go first.”

Leia carried the bag on her shoulder and walked towards the darker area deeper in the alley.

Li Nuo stroked the ration cards hidden under his clothes and nodded secretly.

The production and sales chain of Milk Mushrooms had been opened up, and he had a stable source of income. It was time to implement the second survival plan.

Milk Mushrooms solved his food problem, so the next step was to solve the water problem.

As for wealth.

There was no need to deliberately pursue wealth.

It was just a by-product that he obtained while solving his survival needs, guided by Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
