Class 8: Unseen Passage 16
Zach was diligently working on cultivating crops for himself and his neighbors. The crops were floating, and as he walked by each plant, he used his laser to provide them with the necessary care. That part was simple. However, the challenging aspect was the extensive amount of walking it required.
Suddenly, there was a knock on Zach's door. It was his neighbor, Mia, holding a selection of cleaning products. "Hey, Zach! I just finished making some cleaning products. Do you need any?" she inquired.
"Hi, Mia. I certainly do. Can I trade you 4 breakfast plants for a bottle of cleaning spray?" Zach asked.
Mia responded, "I have enough breakfast plants for this week. How about 4 lunch plants instead?"
Zach contemplated, "They need a little more time to grow before I can offer them to you. Would that be alright?"
Mia replied, "I think that's okay. The distance isn't too far for you, is it?"
Zach assured her, "I will bring them over as soon as they are ready, I promise." Mia trusted Zach's words, so she left the cleaning spray with him and returned home.
Later, when Zach arrived with the plants, he engaged in conversation with Mia. "I wish there was a simpler way to obtain and exchange our items. Trading isn't always easy. Sometimes, I don't have enough plants available for trading, or it becomes challenging to agree on the quantity of plants needed for a particular item."
Mia nodded in agreement. Both of them returned home, pondering and yearning for a solution that could ease their lives.
