Back to Square One (6)
“Ha‑a‑a‑am—” yawn
—She’s yawning www
—Getting sleepy, Nat‑chan?
—Still no one’s cracked the password, 草
—If you’re tired you can log off and sleep, Nat‑chan ww
—草
Sleepy? Well… it’s more that I’m… bored? No, not bored exactly—
Fine, let’s just call it sleepy, even if my brain’s wide awake.
“So if I hold on to these and sell when the price spikes, that’s the play?”
—Yep, exactly.
—Most people call them coins though ww
—So Nat‑chan’s chosen fruit coin is apple coin 草
—Careful not to get scammed~
—No storage, so you haven’t got much time ww
—Either eat them or sell them before they rot…
I’d harvested a mountain of apples but had nowhere to store them.
In this game, fruit rots with time, so you have to catch the day‑to‑day price swings and dump at the top.
Right now apples are 5 gold each. First day—probably average.
Average is good; at least I won’t lose money.
But humans, by nature, want profit. I didn’t pick 200 apples just to sell them for five measly coins each.
…Except—
Today’s apple price: 2 gold
“….”
—wwwwww
—Divine punishment for easy money wwww
—Dropped from 5 to 2 lol
—What if it crashes to 1? (笑)
Gone up? No—cut by more than half.
Where’s beginner’s luck when I need it?
My 200‑apple sweat equity just lost half its value overnight. Motivation ↓↓↓
“…It’s fine. It’ll rise tomorrow.”
I could gather other fruit, but only apple trees grew nearby—poor efficiency.
Gonna have to hold and pray.
Today’s apple price: 1 gold
“What.”
—wwwwww
—Another 50 % dump in a day ww
—Value of yesterday’s 200 apples now equals 40 apples…
—At least it can’t go lower than 1 草
—Yeah, now it can only go up, right?
They had a point. Price at 1 means no more downside, only upside.
Positive thinking: what drops will rebound—maybe way higher!
Today’s apple price: 5 gold
“….”
—Right back to square one 草
—Might as well sell now; shelf life’s ticking.
—Maybe 5 is the hard cap on apples ww
—Sell for 1 080 gold? Do that 1 000 times and you can buy a house ww
—At a thousand times Nat‑chan will be asleep ww
Full circle—like nothing happened.
Maybe that first 5 was actually the peak. Just like how “early Han Yeoreum” felt like my happiest time—
No, that was only the second happiest.
You sold 216 apples and earned 1 080 gold!
Little by little is fine.
If a hundred tries won’t do it, try a thousand; if a thousand fails, ten thousand.
Whatever it takes to grab the chance I missed before. I’m still me, after all.
“Only nine hundred ninety‑nine more runs to buy a house!”
—Nine‑hundred‑ninety‑nine… that’s still huge.
—She already did one; now it’s 999 草
—Lucky, Nat‑chan—under a thousand ww
—She might spend the entire day just picking apples 草
Started with apples, gonna finish with apples.
I reinvested every coin into apple seeds, saplings, fertilizer. Money vanished fast, but future returns matter more.
“…That’s… a lot of seeds.”
Apple seeds on hand: 500
—How are you ever planting that many ww
—Today’ll end before you finish.
—Might need extra hands, no?
—Still no one cracked the password wwww
Yeah, the password was complicated.
Viewers would ask if I really wanted anyone to join—but if they know me, the clue’s obvious.
Sure enough—
Utoki has arrived on the island!
Utoki: “Yaharong~ Nat‑chan~”
“…”
—Someone got in!
—Pass us the PW ww
—So it wasn’t impossible www
—Workforce doubled—each 250 seeds and done.
—That username 草 Could it be…?
Familiar nick. Familiar presence nibbling in the corner of my mind.
Obviously Koyuki.
“You’re Yut‑chan, right? It’s obvious.”
Utoki: “Hehehe—maybe? Anyway, give me seeds. I’ll help!”
“…Fine. More hands welcome.”
—Totally Yut‑chan…
—Avatar looks exactly like Nat‑chan wwww
—Two Nat‑chans planting an apple army…
—Onward to 50‑gold apple world!
—Nat‑chan’s decided on apple‑farming life ww
—草
I split the seed stash with Koyuki and we got to work.
What had been a tedious solo grind suddenly turned fun—
These games really shine when you play together.
