Chapter 42: Warmth Items

Well, it’s decided. It’s better to rely on oneself than on others. I will go to the mall early tomorrow morning to check it out. I hope I can get something and not waste her platform fixed card. Even if it is free, I will use it sparingly.

A dreamless night...

[Ding Dong, players, please note that today is the last day of the novice protection period. All game functions will be available tomorrow. Today's driving distance is 15 kilometers.]

When she woke up early in the morning, she received bad news. Lu Yuelan was upset. Tens of thousands of people died last night. If this continues, there will not be enough people in the area.

According to her previous experience of reading novels and playing games, the number of people in an area may be merged, and at that time it is still unknown whether the people who come are human or ghosts.

In their area, there is a state father to help maintain order. There are cases of murder and robbery, but they are not common. In other places where there is no state father to restrain them, Lu Yuelan doesn't dare to think about what human nature will become.

The most important thing at the moment is to find the engine and make your own vehicle and textile machine.

After the novice protection period ends, the natural disaster that the system hinted at might also come.

In severe cold weather, people will die miserably if they don’t have warm bedding.

Even though the weather is very cold now, it’s because we haven’t experienced the real cold yet.

I heard from my elderly grandmother that one winter was unexpectedly cold and many people froze to death that year.

No matter how cold the temperature is now, it is not cold enough to freeze people to death. According to the nature of the system, a major natural disaster will definitely occur when players are most short of supplies.

If Lu Yuelan wants to survive, she must save enough resource coins to ensure that she will not run out of food and ammunition and starve to death when there are not many supply boxes left.

[Ding, player Lu Yuelan is helping the game develop, and is being rewarded with a blueprint for a special three-piece bedding set, a heater, and a complete set of cotton-padded clothes, trousers, and cotton shoes.]

This time, Lu Yuelan did not show any surprise. Instead, she sent a message to the national authorities that a severe cold weather might be coming, and asked them to collect warm items.

[Official National Recognition: @Princess, please take a seat, are you sure?]

[Princess, please take a seat: Confirmed, a special gift was just given. Two of the three items are warming items. Plus, this was delivered after the system sent the reminder message, so the probability is very high.]

Lu Yuelan is not being too kind and offering important information for free.

The reality is that the number of people in their region has decreased too much. Even if the region cannot be avoided from being merged in the future, Lu Yuelan hopes that the number of people in their region can have an advantage so as not to be bullied by people from those regions with larger populations.

Lu Yuelan herself is not interested in this, nor does she have the ability to do it, so she needs to find someone who is capable.

Who would have a greater advantage than the national father who is already in this business?

[Official national recognition: Okay, I appreciate it. If you need any help in the future, just let me know. I will definitely help if I can.]

[Princess, please take a seat: It's okay. We share a common district, so it's only natural for us to help each other. If you feel bad, when you collect the warm item blueprints, if you have any left, just leave them for me.]

Lu Yuelan remembered that she didn’t have a thick quilt yet, and she didn’t know if she could get one when she went to the mall this time.

[Official national recognition: OK, I'll remember that.]

When Ming Tianying learned of this breaking news, he had a lot of work to do, so his answer was relatively concise.

Of course, it is impossible to just listen to Her Royal Highness's one-sided words about such matters. He is not the only one in the organization, and the others do not trust Her Royal Highness as much as he does.

Ming Tianying went to ask the internal members of the country who had made special contributions recently, and found that basically every ten of them had one or two items related to keeping warm. The last bit of luck was completely dispelled, and he began to purchase the items related to keeping warm step by step.

By the time Lu Yuelan told Xiao Lan to drive to the mall, the regional channel was already buzzing with discussion about the official national decision to buy up large quantities of drawings of warm items such as cotton coats, cotton pants, and quilts.

[I'm just passing by: The government is so generous with its money. I had a cotton-padded jacket design that I couldn't sell for several days, but the government not only didn't lower the price, but actually gave me a high price. Hehe, I can hold on for a few more days.]

[Wang Jianwang: Same thing with me. The insulation board blueprints I hadn't sold for two days were suddenly taken away by the government. It solved my immediate problem and gave me a couple of days of relaxation.]

…

At the beginning, people were still talking about how good the country is, but when the king came out, the situation changed.

[The King of Heaven is the Greatest: A bunch of idiots who helped others count the money after being sold. The system said that the novice protection period is almost over, and it will be difficult to collect supplies after that. They sold the blueprints so cheaply. Let's see how you buy them back later.]

Seeing Tianwang Laozi's words, Lu Yuelan began to suspect that he also knew the news of the coming severe cold weather. She felt unhappy. This guy was not stupid after causing trouble for thousands of years, and he could find the clues.

Of course, the words of the group of lackeys behind him made Lu Yuelan reassess the limited information Wan Qingliang had.

[Ugly people are often mischievous: Our boss can pay more for blueprints, but you guys don't know how to seize the opportunity.]

[Goddess descends: Exactly, that little thing is worth your licking! We clearly offered a higher price than that person, yet you stupidly sold the blueprints to someone else.]

[Kings don't meet each other: We own our own things, we can sell them however we want, you don't have to interfere.]

[I'm just passing by: It's just like the cat crying over the rat, fake compassion. You guys gave me that little rubbish, and you still have the nerve to say that.]

[Heaven's King is the Greatest: A bunch of idiots, my kindness is in vain.]

[I am the winner in life: Brother Wan, don't bother with these idiots. After a while, they will know how to write the word "cry".]

[The goddess descends: Brother Wan, don't be so kind as to help these idiots anymore. They don't deserve your help.]

[Goddess Meimei: Yes, I will give all my things to you, Goddess. You are beautiful and kind, and you will definitely not treat me unfairly when the time comes.]

Whether it's a camel or a horse, take it for a walk and you'll know: What are you arguing about? If it's really as good as you say, then show the real deal. You're just talking big, but who can't pull off a scam? You think your supplies are earned through hard work, while others' are just blown in by the wind.

…

There was a lot of discussion online. Seeing that I was shooting at the bull from a distance, One, Two, Three, Four, and Five saw that the situation was not good, and came over to ask Lu Yuelan about the acquisition of the drawings of the thermal insulation items.

Lu Yuelan replied to the two of them one by one, asking them to prepare some warm items in case of any emergency.

If it were someone else, Lu Yuelan would not say it, so as not to make things difficult for herself and end up being blamed if her guess was wrong.

But since one of these two people was her relative, one gave Lu Yuelan a very close feeling, and he himself was a good person, she also hinted at the news that Yan Han might come later.

[One, two, three, four, five: Okay, thanks, little girl. I can't stand the cold. If I can survive, I'll come back to thank you.]
