Tailor shop.
Yunling asked, "How many cold-proof items are there in total?"
Tailor A thought for a while and replied, "85 cotton coats, 40 cotton pants, 40 pairs of cotton shoes, 20 fleece hats, 5 pairs of gloves, and 2 scarves."
The number of cotton-padded clothes is particularly large, because Yunling specially ordered to prepare travel equipment for the members of the collection team.
She originally wanted to wear a cotton coat per person to ensure that all members of the team could be active in the wild. Who would have underestimated the difficulty of the game, there is only one cotton coat, and there is no way to stay in the wild for a long time!
"It seems that in winter, most of the residents are not suitable to go out." Yun Ling thought, "Make a complete set of cold protection products, build an elite team, and send them out for hunting. This is the best policy."
After pondering for a moment, she made up her mind, "Stop what she was doing. Tailor A makes cotton pants, Tailor B makes cotton shoes, Tailor C makes velvet hats, Tailor D makes gloves, and tailors knitted scarves. Prepare as much as you can. Several sets."
"Yes." A, B, C, D, and Wu responded in unison.
Yun Ling looked at the five people, inexplicably felt that there were not enough people. Unfortunately, level 2 can only accommodate 5 employees, and level 3 can accommodate 10 people.
At present, it is still a few copper coins away from upgrading.
"It's alright, you guys are busy." Yun Ling's heart was heavy, and he left step by step.
**
Before entering the door, the fragrant barbecue smell penetrated into the nose.
Yun Ling, "…"
Sooner or later, she'll move because a barbecue specialist lives next door.
"The mutton kebabs that have just been grilled, why don't you come and eat them together?" Lu Chuan warmly invited.
Yun Ling, "...Okay."
Walking to the neighbor's back garden, she picked up the mutton kebab and put it in her mouth, not polite at all.
【Name: Spicy Lamb Skewers (Cold Food)】
Quality: ordinary
Use effect: 5 seconds to restore 10 points of life, physical attribute temporary +1 (lasting 1 hour).
"Food to keep out the cold?" Yun Ling was slightly startled.
After eating the mutton kebabs, she clearly gained an additional state of gain—protection from the cold wind for 60 minutes.
Lu Chuan took a bunch of roasted gluten and chatted while eating, "The food made of Chaotian pepper has the effect of repelling cold. Even if you don't wear winter clothes, you can move freely in the wild."
"If there is no cold food, you must wear cotton clothes, cotton pants, and cotton shoes to barely keep warm. One less piece, and within half an hour, you will basically be in a negative state, unless your physical attributes are super high."
"The more cold-proof equipment you wear, the better the effect. If you only wear cotton-padded clothes, cotton pants, and cotton shoes, you can move freely for about an hour. After an hour, you will still be in a negative state."
"In addition to the three-piece winter coat, if you wear a velvet hat, gloves, and a scarf, your free time will be extended accordingly."
Yun Ling was eating the second mutton kebab when he heard the words, "Have you tried it?"
"I have received your cold protection equipment, so I should do my part." Lu Chuan said.
Cloud Lord Ling looked at him with incomparable admiration, "Lingyun Town needs a player like you."
Awareness is very high!
"According to my guess, spirits will also have a cold-repelling effect." Lu Chuan said casually, "If you have a chance, you can try it."
"Okay." Yun Ling held a skewer in one hand. After a while, he was full and ready to work.
Lu Chuan watched her go away with a smile in his eyes, "Come on, Lord."
**
Yun Ling went into the warehouse to select materials, and then entered the restaurant kitchen to get busy.
Spicy rabbit meat, spicy chicken nuggets, duck blood with pickled peppers, Mapo tofu... all can ward off cold!
For ten people, she picked ten NPCs with the highest physical attributes and let them eat them.
"Oh, it's so spicy." The armor was shocked.
"As soon as you close your eyes and take a sigh, it will be over soon." Yun Ling persuaded him in a tone of deceiving a child.
The NPCs grimaced and ate the food like poison or medicine.
Lunch time is over.
Yun Ling was very satisfied, she waved her hand, "Let's go, go for a walk in the wild with me."
The NPC's expression was sluggish, like an eggplant hit by frost.
The spiciness soared to the sky, and my throat almost burst into flames.
Taking advantage of this enthusiasm, the group wore cotton-padded clothes and went out again.
In order to avoid accidents, Yun Ling led people around the town and did not go far.
Twenty minutes later.
Yun Ling frowned, "Strange, why can't you see a little monster?"
This is not normal.
If it is normal, if you walk for five or six minutes, you will encounter prey.
Although sometimes there are so many people on the other side that they have to avoid them, but they have never met them.
"Could it be..." Yun Ling had a bad premonition in his heart.
Continue to wander aimlessly with NPCs.
For thirty minutes, I saw nothing but a black wild boar.
At this point, Yunling finally confirmed, "In winter, monsters hibernate, and the targets that can be hunted are greatly reduced."
**
"The weather is too cold, and the breath out is white." Mo Yan complained and rubbed her hands together.
She was wearing a thick cotton coat, cotton pants, cotton shoes on her feet, and a scarf around her neck to protect her ears, but her hands were empty.
Ahead, seven companions marched silently, not talking.
Mo Yan couldn't tell the anger, "Who said that others can't come out, we have winter clothes, can we take the opportunity to level up and widen the gap between levels? Why do I feel like I'm blaming myself..."
How good is it to stay in the territory? The temperature is suitable, there is no cold wind, and you can find someone to chat when you have nothing to do.
After coming out? The prey was not seen, but the cold wind filled his stomach.
Seeing her fingers getting stiffer and stiffer, she was in a worse mood and complained in private.
"It seems that the plan is wrong." Captain Chong Lin stopped and said solemnly, "It's not the hunting team that should come out, but the gathering team. The others are trapped in the territory, surrounded by resources, and let them pick."
This is the advantage of going out in winter.
Mo Yan suggested without hope, "Why don't we go back and change them out?"
"Alright." Unexpectedly, Captain Chong Rin responded. He just thought about it and added, "From tomorrow, the team members will be divided into two teams. In the morning, a hunting team and a gathering team will go out, and in the afternoon, a hunting team and a gathering team will go out."
In this way, the safety of the members of the collection team is guaranteed.
Hearing that you can go back soon, and only need to come out for half a day in the future, Mo Yan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
**
On this day, the harvest of going out has never been lower.
Turning around in a circle, I was stunned to kill three little monsters. Except for copper coins and wood, nothing else has been dropped.
Later, Yunling simply cultivated fighting NPCs in the direction of collection. If you meet mobs and fight monsters, if you don’t meet mobs, you can collect them collectively.
Time flies, and an hour flies by. The gain status disappears, and NPCs re-experience what cold is.
I picked some purple potatoes, bamboo shoots, and potatoes nearby. Yun Ling saw that the NPC was in a serious negative state, so he didn't stop there, turned around and led the team back to town.
Lingyun Town.
The bonfire swayed, roasting the surrounding residents warmly.
The women were doing some handwork, the elderly were busy weaving, and the children were playing with eagles and chickens. There was a happy and peaceful atmosphere everywhere.
Did I worry too much? Yun Ling thought to himself.
Harvest in autumn, stock up on food. In the winter, they can survive this difficulty by staying in the territory to eat and store food and survive for 30 days. Maybe the game is that simple
Recalling the spring and summer, Yunling was secretly vigilant.
She thought, impossible, spicy chicken games can't be so kind and let players pass the level easily.
There must be a backhand!
No matter what, she has to stock up on food to keep things constant.
**
Day 102, winter, disaster day.
At the meeting place, several players looked apprehensive, and said in a negotiated tone, "Boss, it's not suitable to go out in winter, why don't you forget it?"
Someone was more direct, "Boss, can you take a 19-day vacation? Can't you wait until Christmas Day and then go out with the group?"
Seeing that everyone refused to go out, Yun Ling nodded understandingly, "Yes."
"I was just about to tell you that the cold weather in winter makes it inconvenient to collect, so I temporarily cancel the employment."
"Wait until the weather gets warmer, and then rebuild the team."
Hearing this, the player was overjoyed, "Thank you boss for your compassion!"
They are really afraid that their opinions will be raised, and they will be scattered from then on, even if they can't find a job next spring.
It was great that the owner was willing to be considerate of their difficulties.
A consensus was reached, and the players left happily, ready to go home for the winter.
Yun Ling stayed where he was and explained to the members of the collection team who came one after another.
Most people are very happy to hear that there is no need to go out in the cold wind. They didn't say anything and went back the same way.
Several people looked sad, "I don't have enough food at home... If I don't go out to collect, what will I eat later?"
Among them, Pang Yu is the most important.
His wife finally recovered, and his family finally saved enough money to buy a house. Seeing that the days were about to get better, they suddenly encountered a big winter. If you go out for a while, people will freeze, and walking is inconvenient.
But all the money in the family was used to buy a house, and there was nothing left. Not to mention copper coins, there is not much food left.
Thinking that there might be no food to eat in the future, Pang Yu was sweating profusely like an ant on a hot pot.
"There are edible plants nearby. If you are not afraid of the cold, you can go out with the group." Yun Ling reminded, "It is stated in advance that the team only provides cotton-padded clothes. In case of freezing or getting sick, I will not be responsible."
"You, did you ignore us?" The player who spoke looked terrified.
"The rules of the collection team have not changed, and they still provide work clothes. It's just that winter is not as good as summer, and only wearing a cotton coat is not necessarily useful. If you want to collect with the group, think about it before answering." Yun Ling said.
In fact, the shortest members of the collection team were employed for more than 40 days. Just get the salary, save enough to spend the winter.
Prepared in advance and headed home. Those who are not prepared in advance are tangled here.
Hearing this, the remaining three people hesitated.
Pang Yu took his heart and stepped forward first, "I'll go."
When buying a house, his wife reminded him that he should keep some money in his hand. It was he who said that he could live with peace of mind if he had private space, and that if he insisted on buying it, his wife would agree.
It was his decision making mistakes that put the family in a dilemma. No matter what, he has to work to earn money, even if he may encounter danger.
Everyone was surprised.
Yun Ling looked at the other two, "How about you?"
His lips moved, but no one answered for a long time.
Seeing this, Yun Ling understood. She waved her hand and motioned for the NPC to follow, "Let's go."
**
It's freezing cold and the prey is gone, where can I get food
The answer is the riverside.
The monster is gone, but the fish in the river are still there.
Yunling found a small river for fishing, and instructed the NPC to take Pang Yu to collect nearby.
The bait was thrown, and she took out the materials from her backpack, ready to do some manual work while she was waiting.
【Name: Brown Leather Backpack】
Quality: ordinary
Required materials: brown leather*5, gold thread*1.
The needle and thread are shuttled, and the backpack is quickly made.
View item properties.
【Name: Brown Leather Backpack】
Quality: excellent
Durability: 60/60
Wearing effect: 8 storage compartments, each of which can store 99 identical items, no load on the back, and does not occupy the equipment compartment.
"The old cotton backpack is badly worn and just replaced with a new one." Yun Ling said as he sorted out his belongings.
It was too late to say that, and her blood volume continued to drop. There are horns on the top of the shadow's head, and it looks strange.
It's a shadow monster.
Yun Ling is wearing a fire feather cloak, which automatically deals 3 fire spell damage to surrounding enemies every second. So I ignored it and went to work.
The shadow monster launches an attack, reflecting 50% damage.
Every second, take fire spell damage, HP -3.
Within a few breaths, the shadow monster died, dropping copper coins and silk threads.
"It's hard to send experience." Yun Ling was busy for a long time, and finally moved all the items into the new backpack.
Just then, the line was pulled.
"The fish has taken the bait." Yun Lingfei quickly reeled the line and threw the hook violently, only to harvest a big black fish.
…
Go fishing, make backpacks, and occasionally stock up on bandages. In the blink of an eye, the straw basket was full of fish.
Yun Ling stood up and shouted from a distance, "When the work is done, go back."
After waiting for a while, the NPC appeared.
Behind them, Pang Yu shivered, shivering from the cold.
"Are you okay?" Yun Ling asked with concern.
"It's okay!" Pang Yu gritted his teeth, but his teeth kept fighting.
Yun Ling, "…"
It doesn't look like it's okay.
She didn't say much, just walked ahead and led the team back to town.
When he arrived at Lingyun Town, Yun Ling handed out the multi-grain steamed buns and white porridge, "This is lunch. Go out in the morning, go out in the afternoon, and have a rest at noon. Come early in the afternoon, remember not to be late."
Saying that, she gave Pang Yu a slice of the freshly collected ginger, "Drinking a cup of ginger tea is good for warding off the cold."
"Thank you." Pang Yu was extremely grateful.
After saying goodbye, Yun Ling walked towards the restaurant with the straw basket.
She decided to change the menu. Recently, it mainly sells grilled fish and fish ball soup, and saves other ingredients.
The words are divided into two parts.
Pang Yu came home with his lunch, only saying that it is not convenient to collect in winter, and he will not go out all day in the future, and did not mention anything else.
His wife glared at him angrily, "Old Hu next door came back long ago. Do you think I don't know that everyone else is staying in the territory for the winter, so you go out to collect in the cold wind?"
Pang Yu, "..."
He was at a loss for words.
"Here, I sewed the cotton shoes that I just made." The wife couldn't help but shoved the shoes over. "I will find someone to buy some cotton wool in the afternoon. Maybe I can gather the materials and make a pair of cotton pants."
"It will be warm when you put it on, and you won't be afraid of freezing when you go out."
Even without being scolded, Pang Yu felt warm in his heart.
He vowed to make a promise, "I will work hard! Sooner or later, I will make you live a good life!"
"What do you say? It's not bad now." The wife smiled gently.
**
"The first line of the scarf should be woven like this, everyone should look at it carefully." Qiaoqiao said while doing the demonstration, and her movements were deliberately slowed down.
Surrounded by a circle of people, in addition to women, there are teenage children.
Qiaoqiao did not drive people away, but set an example in front of them.
A little girl couldn't bear her temper, she thought about it, and wanted to run out to play. As a result, my mother gave me a light tap, "What are you doing? Get up and study hard!"
The little girl was helpless and could only stare at Qiaoqiao.
It's a pity that Qiaoqiao's fingers flexibly shuttle, and a line of scarves is woven. As for how to do it, she couldn't understand.
"After weaving the first line, the next step is easy, as long as we knit the simplest pattern." Qiaoqiao continued to demonstrate.
Audience: Easy? not at all! !
"In addition to knitting scarves, you can also knit sweaters and cotton socks. If anyone is interested, I can teach them later." Qiaoqiao gave everyone a demonstration, and pointed out the lack of students. Finally, this is the concluding remark.
A student was about to cry, "I remember it when I study, and forget it when I finish it. What can I do with my goldfish head?!"
Qiaoqiao only said, "The more you do, the more skilled you will be."
Students are skeptical and have little confidence in themselves.
At the end of the course, students either go home or take a small bench and sit beside the wooden shed to review and consolidate the newly learned knowledge. If there is anything you don't understand, ask again.
A woman found Qiaoqiao and asked her, "If you have the materials ready, please help knitting sweaters and cotton socks. How much does it cost?"
Qiaoqiao replied, "Sweaters take a long time, and a pair of them costs 200 copper coins. Cotton socks take a short time, and a pair of them costs 60 copper coins."
"It's so expensive?" The woman took a deep breath when she heard it.
"It's not expensive." Qiaoqiao smiled and said, "It's all cold-proof equipment, and it's especially warm to wear. Whether it's craftsmanship or efficacy, it's worth the price."
"I'll go back and ask, and I'll tell you if I'm sure it's made to order." The woman left this sentence and left in a hurry.
Qiao Qiao is not annoyed, she is determined to do the work at hand, and she points out a sentence or two to the students from time to time.
**
On the way home, An Hong reprimanded in a low voice, "Didn't I tell you before I took you out that you need to learn how to knit a scarf? Have you forgotten what Mom said? Why don't you study hard?"
Daughter An An frowned, "I can't learn, it's so boring."
"You don't care, how do you know if you can't learn it?" An Hong persuaded her heartily, "Mom won't hurt you. In today's world, learning a craft is better than anything else."
An An raised her head and asked curiously, "Has mother learned it?"
An Hong, "…"
Heaven was so caught off guard that he was chatted to death.
"Mom has other crafts, so you don't need to learn them." She was calm and didn't blink her eyes when she lied. "An'an learns it hard, so that she can make a lot of money and live a good life in the future, you know?"
An An seems to understand but does not understand, "I know."
Suddenly, she sneezed and whispered, "Mom, I'm cold..."
"Everyone is cold, bear with it." An Hong didn't care.
"I-I'm a little dizzy." Before he could finish speaking, An An fell into a coma.
An Hong was shocked, "What's wrong with you, An An? Don't scare your mother!"
Seeing her daughter's face was flushed red and her eyes were tightly closed, she shouted anxiously, "Someone! Come on! Help..."
**
Coincidentally, at the same time, other residents in the territory fell into a coma.
You Qingwen was talking to Aunt Zhao, a tailor specially trained by the team, when the other party suddenly fainted.
"What's wrong?" You Qingwen was startled.
"I don't know, send the person to the bed first and let her lie down." Zheng Mingyue said decisively.
The two worked together to change Aunt Zhao's position.
You Qingwen thought hard, "Aunt Zhao has been staying in the territory and has never gone out. How can you say that you are dizzy?"
She recalled it repeatedly, and even once suspected that she had said the wrong thing just now.
"This has never happened before, could it be because of the season?" Zheng Mingyue guessed.
"Then why is she fainted, and we are all right?" You Qingwen asked.
Zheng Mingyue was questioned.
The more you look into it, the more questions you have. The two simply stopped guessing at random and waited quietly for Aunt Zhao to wake up.
In a blink of an eye, an hour has passed.
Aunt Zhao woke up, "I, what happened to me?"
"Aunt Zhao, you suddenly fainted just now, scaring me to death." You Qingwen quickly helped her up.
"Fainted? Me?" Aunt Zhao was taken aback for a moment.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the attribute panel, and she almost jumped up in shock, "How could this happen?!"
"What's wrong?" Zheng Mingyue asked.
"I don't know how to say it, you can see for yourself." Aunt Zhao said while setting the "public" mode.
The panel shows, [Because of the cold, you are sick, strength-5, agility-5, physical strength-5, intelligence-5, spirit-5. 】
[The basic recovery speed is changed to: 1 HP/5 minutes, 1 mana/5 minutes. 】
[Three days of rest (no cold for three consecutive days, working time < one hour) can restore health. 】
"Cold?" You Qingwen was slightly startled.
Aunt Zhao herself felt puzzled, "I haven't been out of the territory, how can I catch a cold?"
On the other hand, Zheng Mingyue lowered his eyes and pondered, faintly thinking, "Aunt Zhao, you are busy making winter clothes for everyone these days, and you are still wearing the clothes you used to wear, right?"
"Yeah." Aunt Zhao admitted, "There are many team members, and I am the only tailor, so I am a bit busy. I think, anyway, I am a life player, I stay in the territory all day to do manual work, and I don't have to go out, so I didn't do it for myself. ."
"You mean," You Qingwen recalled, "Even if you stay in the territory, players still need to wear cold-proof equipment to keep warm?"
"It's possible." Zheng Mingyue did not deny it. "Based on the experience of spring and summer, non-game items are basically useless. Even if you wear a down jacket, you can't resist the invasion of cold air. This inference is reasonable."
You Qingwen was expressionless, "In other words, even if you don't go out, players have to make winter clothes to wear?"
Zheng Mingyue sighed, "I think so."
The two of them were worried that the reserves of materials were not enough, but Aunt Zhao was worried, "Can you recover after three days of resting (no cold for three consecutive days, working hours < one hour)? What about the piles of work at hand?"
You Qingwen and Zheng Mingyue were stunned at first, then frowned and became worried.
The house leak happens to rain overnight, which is probably the case.
**
Those who are familiar with Yunling are either advanced combat players or NPCs. In addition, she was not idle in winter, and she went out fishing in the morning and afternoon, so she only heard about the residents' illness.
"Someone in the territory is sick? Do you have to wear cold-proof equipment or cook for a long time to be fine?" Yun Ling was surprised.
Seeing that Pang Yu's lips were pale, she asked him to rest. Who knew that she overheard such news.
"Yeah." Pang Yu said with affection, "So these few days, everyone has either transplanted pines and cypresses, or picked up branches. I originally stocked up some firewood and thought it was enough. Now, it's a long way to go!"
"Speaking of which, it is fortunate that green plants and wells adjust the temperature, otherwise more people will get sick."
It's no wonder that applications for digging holes to plant trees have been frequently received recently.
She also wondered why the residents did not stay in the territory in the winter, but ran around instead. It turned out to be forced.
Only then did Yun Ling react.
