Runemaster in the Last Days

Is it hard?

Sophia looked confused and then shrugged. "You ask the wrong person. I can get a few contribution points every day by taking care of this supermarket, so I don't know how many contribution points that other people obtained every day.

But earning 5 contribution points per day shouldn't be that difficult as long as they're willing to work hard. Afterwards, you can pay rent, buy food, buy drink, and the rest is saved."

The meal set in the canteen was only 1 contribution points. The portion was not big, but it would be enough for most people to eat.

As for the porridge…

Well, it was indeed free but if they wanted to buy another bowl, then it would be 1 contribution point.

"Forget it, I don't need to gather the contribution points." Riya thought about her card that still has a lot of contribution points inside and felt that it was meaningless for her to work so hard to collect more.

After all, she didn't need these things.

Most of the things that she needed were all in her world and there was truly no need for her to ask the base. Only a few other things were still asking the base for help.

Sophia: "…"

She had the feeling that Riya was affected by Amelia's versailles talk. If this sentence was heard by others, they would definitely want to beat Riya up.

Thankfully, there were only the three of them here.

"By the way, how did you maintain this work?" Riya asked curiously. If she was not wrong, the position as the receptionist in the supermarket is a job that was very popular. A lot of people wanted to get this job and earned stable contribution points.

"This job is basically given to the Carson Family. I let my cousin replace me when I was leaving to fight the magic beasts and when I came back, I'll take back the job while he took other job," Sophia explained.

Riya arched her eyebrows.

She had the feeling that this should be one of the few benefits that the Carson Family fought for themselves when they handed over the large amount of medicine to the base in the past.

After all, there was no point for them to keep so many medicine in their hands.

These medicine has shelf life and the Carson Family couldn't possibly eat all of them. So aside from a few that they truly needed and then some others as backup, the rest was basically given to City A Base.

It could be said that the Carson Family was betting.

Betting that City A Base would thrive.

Otherwise, their investment would basically become useless.

"It's quite convenient," Riya muttered.

Sophia laughed. "There are other cousins who also want to take this job, but thanks to Melly, I can be here."

"Because Melly has reached rank 2?"

"Yes~."

When they came back yesterday, Sophia noticed that Melly was already at the peak of rank 1. She gave some magic beast's core to Melly with the hope that she could advance to the next rank sooner.

The result is very gratifying.

Melly managed to advance to rank 2 and the improvement is not over yet.

When Sophia came to her grandfather with the newly advanced Melly, he immediately handed over the receptionist job to her.

Her cousin couldn't do anything but to glare at her.

It was interesting~.

"That's great." Riya smiled. If Sophia is more valued by the Carson Family, her future's resources could also ask from them. This is a good thing because a beast master also required a lot of resources.

After all, if Sophia were to get another magic beast under her, the resources she had to use would skyrocket.

It was definitely not a small amount.

"By the way, does the base trust the Carson Family so much?" Riya asked again. Because there were many things in this supermarket that if the Carson Family were to have any other ideas, City A Base would definitely suffer.

"Oh, there's a security measure here." Sophia pointed at the things on the racks. "If you took something and didn't check out in five minutes, someone will monitor you tightly. And if several items are taken in rapid succession, someone will come and check."

There were several measures in place to make sure that neither the receptionist or the buyer could take advantage of the supermarket.

Riya nodded when she heard that.

It seemed that they have long been prepared in case some people made trouble. After all, it was known that there were some people who would take advantage when there was a chance.

"Well, is there anything new?"

"What are you looking for specifically?"

"Seeds?"

"It's unlikely they'll be sold in the supermarket anytime soon," Sophia replied. "I think that until they have enough food production for everyone in Continent Z, they will not let the seeds fall to the common people."

It would be enough for them to control the food and cultivate it for the people to enjoy.

Riya nodded. "I see."

Speaking about plants, how was the growth of the tree in that laboratory's special garden?

The trees in her world would be readjusted by the world but these trees outside couldn't experience the same treatment. She hoped that the researchers under Samuel could take care of the plants well.

"In that case, I'll go out first."

"Yes." Sophia waved her hand and then sat still once again.

It was very boring for her, but having a job is far better than having none at all.

Riya walked out of the supermarket. The contribution point that she spent was nothing at all. So even if she wasted time inside, Riya didn't care that much.

But the moment she came out, she saw a familiar face in front of her.

Her eyes turned cold. "Why are you here, Ciera?"

"Sister Riya!" Ciera, who was waiting for Riya outside the supermarket, almost jumped up when she saw the other party. "You have to help Dad! He has a large debt!"
