A construction-crazed girl who had just maxed out her infrastructure game suddenly found herself pulled into another world with her max-level skills. She landed in a desolate, sparsely populated to...
==================
"I guess few people even remember its name." Lina muttered.
Lian Yun had an unfathomable look on his face. He squatted down, picked it up, and sniffed it under his nose in disbelief.
“It’s actually true.”
Lian Yun recognized it at a glance, but he was not sure if there was something exactly like it in this world.
I just heard Lina say that it smells unpleasant, and I feel more certain about it.
Lian Yun's expression was hard to describe.
She would never have thought that the first acquaintance she met in this other world would be—a head of garlic! ?
White skin, spicy smell.
Lian Yun peeled off its skin with meticulous attitude.
…
“This is garlic!”
"Garlic? So that's her name." Lina nodded. "The one the Lord's sister knows I don't know, and the one I know doesn't know her. It seems to be correct."
"What is the use of this thing?" Lanna was definitely a pragmatist and first asked about its practical value.
"Hmm... sterilization," Lian Yun subconsciously said the answer he had been told since he was a child. After a pause, he said, "We say that eating it raw can kill bacteria and reduce the risk of illness. But people mainly use it as a seasoning in cooking."
"Is this edible?!" Lina opened her eyes wide and leaned forward to smell it in disbelief. The peeled garlic smelled even stronger, making her frown and roll her eyes as she quickly retreated to a safe distance.
“That’s choking!”
Lian Yun thoughtfully handed it to Lan Na and asked him to put it away: "Some people like the taste while others dislike it. It tastes completely different when cooked. You can try it again when you make a dish later."
Lina waved her hands repeatedly, with a look of rejection on her face: "No, no!"
Lian Yun smiled and said no more.
A few people packed up and sorted the things, and Lana neatly stacked them in the corner.
The downstairs window hadn't been repaired yet, but luckily there weren't any scary creatures like mosquitoes here. The stairs, floors, and walls in the house looked brand new after being wiped clean, and the dark wood had a very textured feel.
The door handle of the bedroom is made of copper metal. It has not rusted or malfunctioned even after being abandoned for a long time, and it opens and closes very smoothly.
It would be even better if there were some furniture.
Lian Yun lay on the animal skin and thought.
But as long as she is given enough time, the restricted purchase store will eventually release the furniture.
At present, it seems that the things that are spawned are very different and there is no pattern.
Potato chips, cola, meat chunks... I wonder when a potato will appear, and then I can start making a living.
.
The next day, Lian Yun rarely overslept and woke up when he heard the sound of the door opening next door.
As soon as she woke up, Xiaobai, who was sleeping next to her head, also woke up slowly.
She heard Lina tiptoe down the stairs and knock on Lanner's door, and they went out together.
Lian Yun yawned, and Xiaobai was infected and yawned too.
She didn't sleep well last night and had some strange dreams.
In the dream, Lian Yun was surrounded by a group of people and was wearing a crown. The group of people cheered and threw it high into the air, but when she fell from the air, no one reached out to catch her.
The moment I hit the ground, the pain of broken bones and shattered flesh swept through my body, as if I had fallen from a height of tens of thousands of meters, with blood splattering everywhere, it was so real.
Then she was awakened by the pain.
She shook her arms and patted her chest with lingering fear.
"Fortunately, the arm is still there."
Although nightmares are scary, Lian Yun has been suffering from nightmares since she was a child, and her broad-mindedness has been fully utilized by her.
Just forget it and don’t explain too much.
She clicked on today's lucky bag and rubbed her hands in anticipation. "I had such a terrible nightmare. To make up for it, it's not too much to give me what I need right now, right?"
"For example, something that can be developed sustainably so that everyone can afford to eat in the future?"
It seemed as if the heavens had truly heard her request. A unique golden light flashed, and a small character appeared:
[Congratulations, Lord! The system has heard your call (1% chance) and sincerely offers you what you need—]
[Kitchen set: 1 stainless steel pot, 5 cutlery pieces, and a small portable refrigerator.]
Lian Yun: ...
Although, I do need to eat now.
It’s not what it seems!!
Lian Yunsheng opened his backpack with dejected look.
Stainless steel pan: Really stainless, really steel, you can even melt it down and make armor... (The following explanation has been blocked due to strong opposition from the iron pan itself.)
Lian Yun: ...Okay, at least it’s a smart iron pot.
[Tableware x 5: Knife, fork, spoon, bowl, chopstick, cup and plate, everything you need to serve your meal.]
[Portable Mini Refrigerator: Snowman-shaped exterior, but with a 2-square-meter interior. Who dares to call me small? System? Yeah, that's fine.]
"Huh?" Lian Yun reread the explanation of the refrigerator, went downstairs, turned on the portable refrigerator, and placed it in the kitchen.
A round head, an oval body, a pure white body, two button eyes, and a red carrot nose - it looks very cool at first glance.
The little white guy on my shoulder was shocked: Why does its head look like mine!
Lian Yun was attracted and stretched out his hand, touching its cool body, and instantly returned to the happy time when he had a refrigerator.
"Having a refrigerator is just... wow??"
Lian Yun stared blankly down at the snowman, which was less than a meter tall. Its head was slowly turning, and its button eyes looked at the hand touching it, then looked along the arm to see Lian Yun: "...Wow!!"
"Why are you still moving?" Lian Yun looked at it in shock.
There was a gaping hole in the center of the snowman's white head—or perhaps a mouth—and he looked up at Lian Yun: "Why are you still moving?"
"Are you imitating me?" Lian Yun suddenly realized.
"You're imitating me?"
…
Got it, Repeater Snowman.
Lian Yun wisely kept his mouth shut.
She took out her flint and built a bonfire on the ground outside the house with the leftover wood chips from the renovation. It took her a long time to finally light the fire.
She placed the iron pot on top and poured half a bucket of water into it.
Lian Yun found the food that Lina said could be stewed together in the pile of food, picked two and threw them into the pot, and sprinkled some seasoning similar to salt.
It was almost noon when Lana and Lina came back, and Lian Yun's pot of "food" had just been cooked.
"I really didn't expect this thing to take so long to cook." Lian Yun said helplessly, and then he filled two bowls and handed them to them.
"Wow! The Lord's sister can actually cook! Brother Lana and I were discussing this on the way, and neither of us can do it."
Lina took the full bowl excitedly, but her face suddenly froze.
She stirred a bowl of black, unknown paste with a spoon in her hand, her expression becoming increasingly frozen.
"Sister...have you tasted it?"
Lian Yun smiled and shook her head. Her energy bar was full. "You guys eat."
"...I'm not very hungry." Lina said nonchalantly.
“Gurgle——”
Lina covered her stomach without changing her expression and handed the bowl to Lana: "Brother, eat first."
Although Lanna's expression was a little more relaxed than hers, it was still visibly serious.
He tried to ask, "Sir, this thing is similar to yesterday's Coke, right? Although it looks... a little thicker, the taste must be surprising, right?"
Lian Yun was silent for a few seconds, then hesitantly asked, "Would you like to try?"
She has always cooked for herself and is quite... somewhat confident in her cooking skills?
Lanna's Adam's apple moved up and down, but he didn't say no in the end. He raised the bowl and drank it all in one gulp with a solemn expression.
"Slow down, don't be anxious, there's more if it's not enough." Lian Yun said hurriedly.
"Ahem! Ahem—" Lanna kept his face calm, shook his head very slowly, and said word by word: "My lord, I am full."
Lian Yun said "Oh", feeling a little sorry.
Then Lana pretended to suggest casually, "Have you fed Xiaobai today?"
"It ran away halfway through my cooking and I haven't found it since."
Lian Yun said unconcernedly, "It's okay though. I bought some new furniture today. I can save it and eat it later."
Lian Yun poured the remaining pot of porridge into a basin and carried it into the house.
Lina and Lana looked at each other and followed with serious expressions.
"Huh? What is this?" Lina noticed the snowman and walked forward to take a look.
Lian Yun quickly stopped him: "Don't get too close to it..."
"Huh? What is this?"
...interruption failed.
"You can think of it as an ice storage, preserving food at low temperatures." Lian Yun, looking at the mush, said to the snowman, "Put this in."
snowman:……
Lian Yun frowned: "Why is it broken right after arriving?"
She reached out and patted the snowman's head. "You can't even repeat it?"
...Nothing happened.
Lian Yun angrily grabbed the snowman's head and tried to pry it open.
"Ah——" The snowman was forced to open his mouth.
Lian Yun stuffed the basin in with an expressionless face and closed it manually.
"Look, this is..."
"vomit--"
The porridge that had just been put in was spit out by the snowman all over the floor, and even the basin flew two meters away.
Lian Yun: ...! ?
Lana and Lina breathed a sigh of relief and pulled Lian Yun together.
Lina was responsible for holding Lian Yun's waist to prevent her from rushing up and beating the snowman.
"Why?"
Lian Yun wasn't angry, but she had a bad feeling. She picked up the pot from the ground. There was still a little liquid left in it. She scooped it up with a spoon and tasted it.
“…”
"grown ups."
"elder sister."
The two looked worried.
"Failed..." Lian Yun curled his lips after swallowing it with difficulty.
I don’t know if it’s because of the different seasonings, but the “salt” here is much saltier, and the two seemingly normal foods cooked together are unexpectedly discordant.
She quickly poured three cups of boiled water and handed them to the two of them, while she drank the water silently without saying a word.
Lanna and Lina looked at each other, and Lanna stepped in front of her, forcibly changing the subject: "My lord, the seed that I planted yesterday seems to have sprouted. Do you want to go and take a look?"
"Sprouted?!" Lian Yun indeed diverted his attention.
"Yes." Lanna said as he led Lian Yun outside, "It seems to be a plant I haven't seen before."
Lian Yun was very concerned about the seed. He followed Lanna and quickened his pace, and soon reached the southern part of the altar.
The land where the seeds were planted yesterday was obviously watered this morning and the soil was still moist.
What is particularly eye-catching is that in the center of the land, a cluster of bright green thin stems quietly broke through the soil, topped with several small leaves that have not yet unfolded.
Lian Yun observed carefully and found that the leaf was indeed different from the ones she had seen before, yet it looked strangely familiar.
She shook her head: "Maybe I haven't seen it either."
Just as Lian Yun was deep in thought, Lanna changed the subject and reported on the results of this morning: "Lina and I walked around the area this morning and didn't see any trace of monsters."
"That's a good thing." Lian Yun sighed.
"And according to the caravan's description, it's not uncommon for people to walk through this desert. So I'm sure you can give it a try. Perhaps your berries can attract lost people." Lanna analyzed carefully.
"...Even so, the risk of doing so is still too great." Lian Yun pondered, still feeling uneasy.
Lanna spoke gently, "I know you wish to give it a try. Although the desert around here is barren, it's not very dangerous. If a monster really comes, I will defend you from it."

The author has something to say:
Lanna: Has Xiaobai eaten?
Xiaobai (grinding his teeth in the corner): So many bamboo shoots.
