Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 77: Opening up salt trading

Views:

Xu Xin traded salt for enough iron blocks with Li Wenxi, and the two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone.

Chatting with this little beauty always makes him feel more relaxed.

Xu Xin put the salt on the trading platform, with the price set at one green resource for 5g of salt. It can be traded directly. Please note that if there are blue resources, you can send a private message.

He did not remain anonymous in this transaction, but used the well-known name Xu Xin, which can be regarded as publicity.

Among the explorers.

Zhao Xiaochuan: "What the hell! I was browsing the trading platform and suddenly found that Boss Xu Xin had put salt on the shelves!"

Wang Lei: "??? Salt? Oh my god! I'll go check it out!"

Qin Yunlong: "Salt? Coarse salt or fine salt?"

Xu Xin didn't expect that he would be discovered as soon as he posted it. He took a look at the trading platform and found that his non-anonymous salt transaction was directly listed at the top and most conspicuous position of the trading platform.

… Is this the hidden benefit of being number one

So he replied in the group: "It's fine salt. If you want it, you can go directly to the trading platform, or come to me with blue-level resources."

Wang Lei: "Wow! One green-level resource for 5g, Boss Xu is really a jerk!"

Li Wenxi: "What's so black about it? A person only needs about 5g of salt a day. One piece of green-level resource can be exchanged for a day's worth of salt. This price is very fair!"

Qin Yunlong: "Fine salt is indeed not expensive."

At this time, Ji Chaoyang sent him a private message: "You actually found the salt mine. I have been keeping an eye on it these days, but I didn't expect you to find it first. Two blue-level apples in exchange for some salt."

"Okay." Xu Xin replied, and then completed the transaction with Ji Chaoyang.

Salt is a necessity. You may not see any obvious effects in the short term, but once you do not consume salt for a long time, you will have symptoms such as muscle soreness and weakness, dizziness and drowsiness, nausea and vomiting, and muscle cramps. This negative state can be fatal in this crisis-ridden world.

The regional channels were also buzzing with excitement.

"Fuck! Boss Xu Xin is selling something! Salt! Oh my god, he's really generous!"

"My eyes are filled with tears. I am a person with a heavy taste for food and I haven't eaten salt for more than a week since I came to this world. How can I have an easy life? Long live Mr. Xu!"

"I bought it, and I was shocked. It turned out to be fine salt! I thought it was coarse salt that had been filtered initially!"

"One green resource for 5G, this is too expensive!"

“Strongly request a price reduction!”

“Strongly request that it be distributed free of charge!”

"Is this expensive? Do you know how precious salt is? It's good enough that the boss can sell it to you. If you don't want to buy it, get out!"

"Speaking of the free one, your anonymity makes it difficult for me to express myself, so why not reveal your name?"

I didn't expect so many people to speak up for him. He wasn't like Ji Chaoyang who posted guides to everyone on the regional channel every day, but it seemed that his image was very tall in the eyes of many people, especially after he won the first place this time.

People who have survived several events and survived to the present day will not be without even a green-level resource. Of course, some people may have very few green-level resources and are reluctant to exchange a green-level resource for a day's worth of salt.

Xu Xin's private messages were also exposed. Most of them were begging, some asked him to lower the price, and some accused him from the moral high ground. He directly blacklisted these people and prohibited them from doing business with him.

If you get too close to such a person, you might accidentally get hurt when struck by lightning.

Of course, there were also some people who came to him with blue-level resources. Xu Xin looked at the names and found that the few who were not anonymous were among the top 100 on the list, so it was normal for them to have blue-level supplies.

They were basically some low-value blue-grade fruits, so Xu Xin gave them 50g each.

50g may seem like the amount for ten days, but actually it is impossible for most people to put just the right amount of salt. Barbecuing is okay, but more salt is needed for cooking because the salt is all in the soup and the actual intake is only a small part.

So Xu Xin didn’t think he sold it cheaply.

The more blue fruits there are, the better. After all, besides himself, there are two other mouths to feed at home.

Xu Xin sent another message to Qin Yunlong: "Are the blue-level water plants for sale now?"

"Three water plants in exchange for your two green-level iron-tipped spears, is that okay?" a message came from the other side.

The price is reasonable. This aquatic plant should not be a pseudo-blue-level material like apples and oranges, where a tree can produce hundreds of fruits, but a real blue-level material similar to hemostatic grass.

This is equivalent to having the superpower of breathing underwater for a short period of time, which is much stronger than those resources that restore one's own state. It is reasonable to exchange it for a green-level Iron Tip Spear.

Considering that underwater resources might still have to rely on cooperation with the other party in the future, Xu Xin agreed to the price and made two iron-tipped spears to trade to Qin Yunlong.

"Are there no attacking beasts like crocodiles in the water over there?" Xu Xin asked after the transaction was completed.

"Yes, I killed them before going into the water to look for resources." Qin Yunlong replied.

"Do you have any piranhas?"

"Piranhas? No, only crocodiles and a few aggressive big fish, all of which I stabbed to death. Do you have any piranhas?"

"Well, I don't dare to go into the water right now regarding the school of piranhas. Do you have any ideas?" Xu Xin humbly asked Qin Yunlong for advice. After all, he knew much more about dealing with water than Qin Yunlong did.

"I don't have any good solution with the current equipment. If your lake water is flowing, you can consider poisoning it, but I don't know how long it will take for the lake to purify itself. It's best to prepare enough water resources in the tree house before taking action."

"Okay, I'll think about it."

It's not that Xu Xin didn't consider poisoning. He now has contaminated animal meat in his hand. If he throws it in for the piranhas to eat, a large number of them will surely die. But the side effects of this are quite large. The dead piranhas are also poisonous, which may cause large-scale deaths of surrounding fish resources.

Moreover, there is a certain chance that this meat will cause mutations in the eater. There are a large number of piranhas in the school, and the probability of mutated piranhas appearing is very high. Xu Xin does not think that one or several mutated piranhas are easier to deal with than a school of piranhas.

"Forget it. The piranhas haven't spread too far right now. Let's wait until tomorrow's event is over."

After dealing with these, today's work is basically done. Xu Xin was about to lie down on the bed when he suddenly thought of the leather armor materials he had collected after a busy day. Because the things in the points mall were too tempting, he almost forgot about the leather armor set.

Xu Xin immediately came to the weapons and armor manufacturing table and made a set of leather armor using animal bones (blue) and animal skins (blue).

Seeing the effect of the leather armor set, Xu Xin curled his lips.

Leather Armor Set (Blue) Four-piece Set: Enhances stealth and reduces the possibility of being detected by enemy units.

A special infiltration suit! A must-have for the sixth character!

Compared to the iron armor set, Xu Xin prefers this leather armor set. There are too many things in this world that he cannot fight against, and he can survive better if he is a little bit more survivable. In comparison, the leather armor set is the suit that is more suitable for Xu Xin at this stage, and the iron armor set is only suitable for combat.

Come to think of it, without the support of the rich woman Li Wenxi, he would not be able to make a blue-level armor suit at this stage. Perhaps the blue-level armor suit is not a suitable suit at this stage.

Xu Xin couldn't wait to try on the leather armor. After taking two steps, Xu Xin found that his footsteps were almost silent, and there was no sound of friction between the leather armor, which greatly enhanced the stealth.

"I'll wear this for tomorrow's dungeon exploration."

Finally, after finishing all his work, Xu Xin lay down on the bed and fell into a drowsy sleep.

I hope tomorrow's activities will be simpler.
