Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 8: First time transaction

Views:

Xu Xin thought for a moment and asked, "Friends, how old are you?"

After asking once, he was quickly rejected. Xu Xin had no choice but to ask a few more times.

"What's wrong? I just graduated from college and started working."

"I'm eighteen and a freshman in college."

"I'm also in college, I'm a junior!"

"You all look so young. I'm already 29, almost 30."

"Brother, shake my hand. I'm 28 years old and a virgin. Are there any ladies out there?"

"What time is it, little sister?"

"What's wrong with SP? Miss sister is a necessity!"

Xu Xin looked at the ages of these people. The youngest was 18 and the oldest was no more than 30. It was roughly this age range. He himself had just graduated from college less than a year ago. He was transferred to a postgraduate school in his senior year, but he didn't go. He studied for another year and just got into the school of his choice. He is waiting at home to go to school in September.

"It seems that they are all between 18 and 30 years old." Xu Xin said to himself.

He didn't turn off the voice input, so this sentence was sent to the chat room.

“It’s true!”

"Fuck! I just turned 18! Is this compensation for not being able to play games before I turned 18? So I can only play games for the rest of my life?"

"… Yesterday was my 31st birthday. I almost didn’t have to come. Why didn’t I give birth two days earlier…"

After observing for a long time, Xu Xin gradually understood what kind of people the survivors who came to this world were.

First of all, they are between 18 and 30 years old, come from all over the country, and are in relatively good health. According to several brothers and sisters around 30 years old, they are either not married or married but have no children.

It seems that this game has quite principles in its selection of survivors. For people like them, it seems that even if they disappear from the world, it will not affect the lives of others too much. Their parents are not too old, and they don't have very young children who cannot take care of themselves.

To be honest, Xu Xin breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried these days that his relatives would be dragged into this survival game, but it seemed unlikely at the moment.

Of course, it is not ruled out that this is just the age group in their district, but Xu Xin still prefers to believe that it is beneficial to him.

"Family, what should we do now?"

"Yes, I have been staying in the tree house for the past two days and I dare not go out. The bread and water are almost gone."

"Everyone has bread and water. I thought I was just lucky..."

At this time, the frequency of talking in the chat room gradually decreased. Many people must have walked out of the tree house and started working.

Xu Xin was not in a hurry to work. He was very efficient. He took out an apple, took a bite and asked, "Where did you plant the tree house seeds?"

"Where else can I plant? I've been walking around for a long time and there are nothing but trees. I can only plant randomly."

“I found a stream and planted it next to it!”

"Is this true? Then you have a lot of water resources!"

"Brother, please give me some water! My five bottles of water are almost finished!"

Xu Xin ate his fruit breakfast while watching their reactions. At least those who were talking now had only found a stream, and had not found a resource area like his.

"Are all of them low tree houses?" someone asked.

"What else? Are there different tree houses?"

"It's only the novice stage, a low tree house is good enough."

"I'm short too, and it's too small. It's less than 20 square meters, about the same size as our dormitory."

Although other people do not have Xu Xin's identification ability and cannot see the level and color of items, they can still see the names of the items, just like when he did not have this ability, he could also see the introduction of the tree house seeds, but the introduction was very concise.

Suddenly someone's speech attracted his attention.

"What low tree house? Isn't it a tree house?"

Xu Xin noticed that this person was not anonymous, but sent the message using his own name.

Li Wenxi, looks like a woman's name.

However, her speech did not stand out among the crowd and was quickly eliminated.

It seems that there are still people with good luck, but there should be no other person like him who can find a fertile soil among these nearly ten thousand people. If he can find it by luck, he is not just a European emperor, he is a son of the plane.

Unless he has the same ability as himself.

After exiting the chat room, Xu Xin clicked into the trading platform, which was already full of transactions.

"Wood (white)*20 in exchange for bottled water (green)*1 or other water resources."

"Stone (white)*10 in exchange for any food."

There is no need to even look at these transactions. White quality wood and stones are easily available to everyone. Selling these things in exchange for food and water is simply not something that anyone would do.

Xu Xin shook his head and was about to close the trading platform and leave when he suddenly saw a transaction information.

"Iron ore (green) can be exchanged for any blue quality materials. Message me for the specific amount."

"Oh?" Xu Xin's eyes lit up. Iron ore. He remembered that the raw materials of the barbecue grill included iron blocks (green). It should be smelted from this iron ore.

Moreover, the materials exchanged were of blue quality, so this person must have used the identification table to identify the blue quality materials, otherwise he would not know that the higher level is of blue quality.

I remember the identification table, the primary identification table (white): put the material on it, and after 10 seconds it will emit light of the same color as the level, which can be used to identify the level of the obtained items. It requires 20 pieces of wood (white) and 20 pieces of stone (white). This thing is of no use to him, but it is the most basic tool that other survivors must have.

After taking a look at the person who sent the transaction, Xu Xin was stunned.

Li Wenxi.

The woman who just planted the tree house seems to have this name

I was really lucky. Not only did I grow a small tree house, but I also found blue quality supplies and iron ore.

Eh? Could this woman also be in a similar resource area as him

Xu Xin quickly initiated a private chat with her.

"Hello, do you have iron ore?"

The other side replied quickly: "Yes, exchange for blue quality supplies."

"Do you have any blue quality supplies?" Xu Xin asked again.

The other side hesitated for a while before replying: "Yes."

This girl is a bit cold.

"Red berries that can provide two hours of night vision. Do you want them?" Xu Xin spoke frankly without any nonsense.

"Yes!" The other party replied quickly this time, "How much iron ore do you want to exchange?"

"I want to make a long-term deal with you, but before that, I want to know the function of the blue material you discovered."

The other party didn't waste any words. Perhaps because he knew that blue materials had special effects, he believed him more and replied directly: "Stone (blue): When making stone tools, you only need to use one to greatly increase the efficiency of the tool."

"Fuck!" Xu Xin exclaimed. This is a good thing. He now needs ten axe strokes to chop down a green tree with a stone axe. This thing can actually improve efficiency! You know, the durability of a stone tool is only 200, so chopping less will not only improve efficiency, but also allow one axe to chop down more trees.

Moreover, current stone pickaxes cannot mine blue quality stones at all, making these stones even more precious.

Because it was voice input, Xu Xin's words were sent out directly, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

“…” A string of ellipsis came from the other side.
