Chapter Thirty-Eight: Discovering Wild Vegetable Resources
The establishment of small groups, there are messages and resources to share transactions in a timely manner, which is much better than a one-on-one chat.
And the three of them all have their own strengths, and the materials in their hands are all needed for each other.
He is good at hunting, fur and meat are his trump cards in his hand, Zhuge Dali is good at digging, wood and stone are her trump cards, Bai Zhong is good at weaving, and all kinds of weaving tools are the trump cards in his hands.
In the group, the three of them told each other's situation and what they wanted, and at present, Xu Shiying and Zhuge Dali and the two of them have accumulated enough wood and stones to upgrade the shelter.
Now it's just Bai Zhong, and not a single piece of wood or stone has been accumulated.
It's not that he doesn't want to accumulate, it takes a lot of time to weave handicrafts, and these items are exchanged for food and drink that he usually uses.
There's no time to exchange for anything else.
Especially during this period of high-intensity knitting work, he couldn't bend over, and as soon as he bent over, there was an unforgettable pain.
He also wanted to rest, but he still had Xiaofan to take care of, so he kept gritting his teeth and insisting.
For now, Bai Zhong is not a good partner, after all, he has limited supplies in his hands, and he is inefficient, and it may take a few days to get a job.
As a result, he couldn't keep up with many supplies, if he hadn't happened to meet Xu Shiying, he had traded meat slices and cang's ears or something.
I'm afraid he's hung up like many survivors.
It's now the fourth day of existence, and a large number of people are dying every day for a variety of reasons.
At two o'clock in the morning today, he looked at the number of survivors counted in the "Survival Handbook", and it was 40 million less than when he first came to this world.
In just four days, 40 million people have been reduced, and human beings are so small and helpless in front of nature.
The mysterious prompt voice said that their newbie protection period is a week, that is, there are three days left, and the green circle outside will disappear.
Once the green circle disappears, it means that there is no limit to those beasts in the wild, unless you hide in the shelter and do not come out, drinking water and squatting in a pit may be attacked by powerful beasts.
But the strength of the shelter depends on whether it can be upgraded to a higher level, the higher the level, the higher the defense ability, and the larger the area.
Unfortunately, upgrading requires so much wood and stone that you can't just accumulate if you want to, even if you're trading.
In the past few days, he has found that the price of timber and stone has increased considerably, at least by more than 30 percent on the basis of the original price.
Nowadays, those who can survive are not simple, and naturally understand that wood and stone are especially important in the upgrading of these days.
He also wants to upgrade the shelter to level 3, and it is said that some people have already upgraded the shelter to level 3, not only the shelter is getting stronger, but the area of the shelter is also much larger, and even from the upgrade package, very good supplies are opened.
It's a lie to say that you don't have greed.
Originally, he weaved a bamboo basket to exchange a lot of wood or stone.
But not right now.
One bamboo basket is fine for some wild fruits or fresh water sources, but you need at least five bamboo baskets for wood and stone.
For this reason, Bai Zhong has not changed any wood and stone for upgrading except for the wood that is usually used to burn pots.
At this time, after learning in the group that Zhuge Dali had a large amount of wood and stone, he was shocked, especially when Xu Shiying told him that the three of them were in alliance, whether it was Zhuge Dali or he Xu Shiying, they would sell it to him at a 5% discount on the outside market price.
And the price of his handiwork remains the same, only the quality and quantity are guaranteed.
Bai Zhong felt very frightened after hearing this, and hurriedly said no, he would also give them a fifty percent discount on the things he had knitted.
The fool could tell that it was the two of them taking care of him.
In this strange and dangerous world, no one is easy, and he doesn't want to take advantage, which will make it difficult for him to sleep.
But this matter was decided by Xu Shiying, and Bai Zhong had no choice but to accept it, and swore that the things he knitted for them must be the best and most perfect.
In the shelter, Zhuge vigorously sipped the snake broth, and looked at the chat between Bai Zhong and Xu Shiying in the group, with mixed feelings.
From her heart, she was reluctant to add Bai Zhong to their alliance, at least in her opinion, Bai Zhong's survivability was low, and his physical strength and other aspects did not meet the standards of a good survivor.
The things he made weren't trying to survive as hard currency.
Especially after the end of the novice protection period, Bai Zhong's weaving handicrafts have no market for a long time.
It's not that he's not well-made, it's that he doesn't need it for the time being.
When you don't eat, you think about how to sleep comfortably in bed?
When you are attacked by a wild beast, will you take a bamboo basket and face the beast?
She calculated in her mind at least a hundred possible contingencies, or development routes, and the results showed that they were not optimistic.
Once Bai Zhong joined their alliance, as an alliance, she was not afraid of the high and low price of resources.
It's about whether you're worth them equally.
Because they also had the same needs, it was now equivalent to saying that the two of them needed to take care of him.
To put it mildly, Bai Zhong is now a burden.
But Xu Shiying communicated with her privately, told Bai Zhong about the situation, and selflessly shared some snake meat from him to her, she really couldn't open her mouth, so she had no choice but to acquiesce.
Later, let's talk about it later, well, this snake broth with salt is really good to drink.
……
Xu Shiying naturally didn't know Zhuge Dali's thoughts, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
It's all human, and it's a little bit to be able to help.
Helping Bai Zhong is not to get Bai Zhong's gratitude, but to have a clear conscience, and at the same time to tell himself that he is a person.
After a period of busyness, Xu Shiying drank some hot water and sat in the shelter for a short rest.
Just now he went out to pick up some wild fruits and the like, Bai Zhong, as an older person, has a unique understanding of wild vegetables.
Many of them he and Zhuge Dali thought they were weeds, but Bai Zhong told them that they could eat them.
According to Bai Zhong's teachings, when collecting wild fruits, he dug up a lot of wild vegetables, which were two large baskets, and he sent some to Bai Zhong and Zhuge respectively.
Both were delighted.
Vegetables are finally free.
The happiest person was Xu Shiying, no matter what strange this place was, whether the island was put aside first, but there was indeed a plain near him.
There were so many weeds that he could only use them as bedding or as firewood after drying. In order to replenish the nutrients needed by his body, he eats leaves.
This made him feel like a wild man for a while.
I know the woolen grass because I was naughty when I was a child, and I often plucked this to play, and finally found that I could eat it, and I opened the green skin on the outside, and the inside was tender white silk thread, and if I was lucky, the woolen grass I ate had a lot of moisture and a hint of sweetness.
But this thing was not hungry, and there were not many of them, so he quickly ran them out.
I had no choice but to eat some tender green leaves.
As a result, he didn't expect that he had very rich wild vegetable resources here, and if he had discovered these earlier, wouldn't he have lived a well-off life a long time ago?
The ancients often said that knowledge is wealth, and honesty does not deceive me.
