The former self lived in poverty, working arduous jobs to earn scraps of money, all wasted on insincere relationships, thus remaining ignorant of the prices of mutated biological products.
Only after searching now did Wang Chen realize just how exorbitantly priced such ingredients were.
To be fair, despite the Empire’s strict hierarchical system, as long as the lowest-tier citizens are willing to work, they have no trouble meeting their basic needs for food and clothing.
In the market, a kilogram of genetically modified beef costs less than 5 Star Currency; pork and chicken are even cheaper. You could binge on meat every day without bankrupting yourself.
Even the organic meat produced by Green Planet Ranch is priced at just tens or hundreds of Star Currency per kilogram.
But Grey Armored Beetle meat, not even the tastiest or most energy-rich Blade Limb Meat, was priced at an unthinkable 3,800 Star Currency—leaving Wang Chen utterly speechless and acutely aware of his own poverty.
Looking at it another way, how many Star Currency did he devour on FT1205 Ecological Experimental Star?
Wang Chen couldn’t even bear to calculate.
Had he known the value of mutated biological meat, he should’ve scouted out more Grey Armored Beetle nests and brought back larger quantities.
But regret came too late.
Only now did Wang Chen realize that the Advanced Martial Examination was actually a blessing bestowed by the Empire upon millions of examinees!
What do you think?
