Chapter 050 Distribution of Supplies
Because part of it had been eaten for dinner, the remaining prey now consisted of sixty chickens, ducks, rabbits, fifteen large fish, eighty chicken and duck eggs, three baskets of wild vegetables and mushrooms, as well as seven hundred kilograms of wild boar meat and more than one hundred kilograms of pig bones.
According to the division method just mentioned, Lu Xuan took 30%, which was 18 chickens, ducks, rabbits, 24 eggs, a basket of wild vegetables and mushrooms, 210 kilograms of wild boar meat and about 40 kilograms of large bones. The four and a half fish were not easy to divide, so he picked the four largest or best-tasting fish and shared them.
The other members of the exploration team can get the same amount of supplies as Lu Xuan, but they need fourteen people to share it, so they only get one fourteenth of it.
But it’s not a small amount either, there are 15 kilograms of wild boar meat alone!
The village’s public supplies are deducted by 10% on this basis, and the remaining amount is distributed among households.
Small prey such as chickens, ducks and rabbits are distributed to each family, with a total of only about one-third, or about one kilogram.
There were only three big fish left, each weighing nearly ten pounds. Each family could get more than half a pound of the thirty pounds of fish meat, but considering that parts like the fish head were not easy to divide, and there were too few eggs and mushrooms left to divide, they were simply put away first, and planned to accumulate more later for distribution.
The real big thing is wild boar meat.
One hundred and forty kilograms of meat and more than twenty kilograms of bones were distributed to each family, and each family received a little more than three kilograms of meat and half a kilogram of bones.
It doesn't sound like much, but think about the village chief's family. Li Jing and Li Tuo were both members of the exploration team. Each of them received 15 kilograms of pork, which means the two brothers got 30 kilograms in total.
Adding up the equally divided part, it comes to 33 pounds of meat, which is quite a lot.
The same situation applies to the Lu and Wu families.
Others could not compare to them, but as long as they were members of the exploration team, each family could get a total of nearly 20 kilograms of meat, which was a rich harvest.
The only people who think that three pounds is too little are those who have no one in their family to join the exploration team, and who have a large population and not enough meat to eat.
Most of these families thought that they would have their family members join the hunting and gathering teams, so that they could get double or even triple the supplies like the village chief's family and the Wu family!
On the contrary, only the orphans and widows, who were already poor, did not complain about the lack of meat at all. The more than three pounds of meat they saved was enough for them to eat for a long time.
Li Tie said, "If anyone's meat or fish isn't enough, you can come to me and exchange your food for the meat and fish in the public supplies. Also, please decide which team you want to join as soon as possible, and tell me tomorrow morning at the latest to avoid delaying tomorrow's exploration."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people who had just received the fresh meat surrounded him tightly and began to register names in preparation for storing the meat in a space to prevent it from getting spoiled by the heat.
After solving the problem of preserving the meat, everyone sat together in groups of three or four in the square where the lights were turned on again to discuss which team they should join.
"Which team is your family going to join?"
"Of course it's the hunting team! Didn't you see that everyone who went out today got more than ten pounds of meat?"
"That's because Lu Xuan was with them. They were lucky enough to kill several wild boars. Without wild boars, they wouldn't have gotten as much, and the hunting team would have been much more dangerous."
"I'm planning to join the Guard Corps. It sounds safer. The pay might not be as good as the Hunting Corps, but stability is important. I'm the only breadwinner in my family. If something goes wrong while I'm out hunting, life will be difficult."
The Zhang family was also discussing which team they would join.
The old man is old and it is not suitable for him to join any team, so he is simply ignored.
However, Zhang Wende was a little jealous of his son's harvest today and wanted to join the hunting team.
Zhang Chengming quickly dissuaded him, "Dad, the hunting team is not only a test of skill, but also requires a lot of physical strength. If you really can't stay idle, you can join the guard team. Leave the hunting team to me."
Zhang Yang also said, "The hunting team is clearly for young people, so the child's father should stay out of it. I think the guard team is perfect. You and your son can have one hunting team and one guard team. My daughter-in-law and I can join the gathering team. Then our family will have four shares of the income, which is definitely enough to support the whole family."
The decisions of other families were basically the same as those of the Zhang family. Middle-aged men mainly joined the guard team, young people joined the hunting team, and all female family members, except Wei Xiang, regardless of age, joined the gathering team.
After seeking the consent of the village chief, the girls and boys aged twelve or thirteen also decided to join the collection team.
They may not be as efficient as adults at work, but it is always good to be able to earn extra income for the family.
In order to increase his family's income, Li Tie also filled in his name in the guard team.
The two sons went to the hunting team to make contributions just like today. At the same time, they also signed up for the guard team to earn as much as possible.
Miao Jinfeng and Wu Yinyin, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, naturally joined the collection team.
The Lu family was also easy to divide. Lu Xuan and Lei Yan joined the hunting team, and Lu Qing joined the gathering team.
Neither Lu Xuan nor Lei Yan were planning to join the escort team.
To put it bluntly, this team is prepared for those young people who are less courageous and middle-aged people with less physical strength. They earn their money through hard work, and they are not short of supplies, so there is no need for them to join in the fun.
After telling the village chief about their team choice, the Lu family returned to the small cave first.
Lu Xuan controlled his food intake when eating from the big pot and did not eat too much. After returning, he took out a bowl of meat buns and a bowl of noodle soup from the space to replenish his appetite.
During the whole journey, Lu Chen kept encouraging him: "Brother, can I go hunting with you? I really want to go! I won't cause you any trouble."
Lu Xuan compared his height and said, "With your small body, if you go to the hunting team, will you hunt, or will the prey kill you? Just stay at home."
Lu Chen's eyes rolled. "Then I can join the gathering team, right? I'm pretty good at picking wild vegetables."
In short, he didn't want to be like other children who only had food to eat and did not work.
Lu Xuan still shook his head. "Even if the collection team has no restrictions, they can't accept a child as young as you. If you really want to find something to do, help keep an eye on the children in the village and don't let them run around. It's dangerous in the mountains, and it will be troublesome if they get lost."
Lu Chen slumped his shoulders and said dejectedly, "Okay then."
After comforting Lu Chen, Lu Xuan handed the chicken, duck, rabbit and wild boar meat he had received today to Lu Qing.
"You can use the chickens, ducks, and rabbits as you see fit. Ask who wants the wild boar meat. Exchange it with bacon. Five pounds of fresh meat for two pounds of bacon or sausage."
Lu Qing checked the wild boar meat in the space.
Except for the dozen or so pounds that Lei Yan got, the rest were given to Lu Xuan.
There was the 30% that he got according to the village chief's rules, the 30% that the exploration team agreed to give him for the weapons expenses, and the ten kilograms that Wucheng sent in exchange for arrows, which added up to almost 280 kilograms.
"Are all these going to be exchanged for bacon?" Lu Qing felt a little distressed. "This way of exchanging them for meat won't even get half of what we have now. What a waste."
Lu Xuan waved his hand: "It's fine. If anyone wants to exchange food, that's fine too. One pound of fresh meat for two pounds of coarse grain."
The audience in the live broadcast room was puzzled, "Hasn't the anchor always said that he can't get used to brown rice? Why is he actively switching to brown rice again?"
Lu Xuan said: "Coarse grains can be turned into refined grains after processing, but the weight will be reduced."
Today, he had just received the food for the biological clothing that he had given to the members of the exploration team on credit in advance, and there were more than 300 kilograms of coarse grains.
Instead of hoarding more and more, it is better to process it into fine grains so that there is no worry about waste.
Seeing that he had made up his mind and that his family members really couldn't get used to the taste of wild boar meat, Lu Qing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask others tomorrow. I think someone will be willing."
Other families are not as picky as they are. Two kilograms of bacon can be exchanged for five kilograms of fresh meat. Even if they spend some salt and time to make the bacon again, the final weight will be at least three and a half kilograms, so it is not a loss in any way.

After returning to the room, Lu Xuan opened the blind box page of the system mall.
【Finally here! Been waiting for so long!】
【Actually, today’s live broadcast was also very exciting. 】
[Daytime is daytime, and now is now! Anyway, the anchor should start drawing! Let's see how lucky we are today.]
With yesterday's experience, Lu Xuan didn't say much nonsense today and started drawing directly.
[Ordinary blind box ten consecutive draws: points 127, points 88...]
[Ten consecutive ordinary blind boxes: ...]
…
After ten consecutive draws, all the supplies were quickly displayed in front of Lu Xuan.
Eighty percent of what I drew today were duplicates of what I drew yesterday. The usual consumables such as nutritional supplements, salt, sugar, medicines, and toilet paper accounted for the majority, and the rest were miscellaneous clothing sets, tents and sleeping bags, some tables, chairs, small cabinets, etc.
There were only a few new items, ice patches, thermos cups, candle sets, self-heating blankets, a set of locators, and several new remote-controlled toys for Lu Xuan to play with.
The guaranteed minimum for a hundred consecutive wins is a 10-cubic-meter space ring.
Lu Xuan thought about it, and then bought ten consecutive silver blind boxes.
[Silver Blind Box Ten-Piece Combo: 1206 points, 868 points, 2008 points, 1128 points, 890 points, automatic fishing net, a certain brand of four-piece bedding set, a smart dryer, basic adult bio-suit, and a kayak.]
Yesterday, when I did a hundred draws, I got two biological suits in addition to the guaranteed one. But today, I didn’t get any in the hundred draws, only one in the silver category.
A silver blind box costs one thousand points, which is equal to the price of biological clothing. It can only be said that there is no loss or profit.
The automatic fishing net can be used to catch fish in the pool under the waterfall, and the size of the fishing net is also suitable.
Four-piece bedding set... According to the introduction, it is made of the skin of a specific mutant animal. It is light as a feather but extremely warm. It looks like a good thing, but it is very subtle when it is drawn from the silver blind box.
Besides, it's not the right season.
These include thermos cups, self-heating blankets, silver dryers, kayaks...all of which are useful items that you can't use for the time being.
The total number of points drawn was also one-third less than yesterday. Overall, my luck was obviously not as good as yesterday.
[There weren't any surprises in what I drew today.]
[As expected, yesterday was the legendary rookie luck. 】
It's okay! Don't panic, streamer! Even if your draw isn't as good as yesterday's, you'll still make money overall.
