Chapter 164 Solar Water Heaters
After submitting the puzzle, Meng Qingyin glanced at the puzzle progress chart.
There are now more than a dozen different new maps, each with a different number of puzzle pieces, ranging from more than a dozen to only two or three.
The current number of puzzle pieces is still too small; it seems I need to hurry up and find a way to acquire more puzzle pieces.
Meng Qingyin has already discovered one.
She was about to post it in the chat area when someone else posted it before her.
Zhao Lan: "Everyone, please take note, you can also find puzzle pieces in supply crates! I just got one from a silver supply crate."
Xiuer: "I'd like to add that not all supply crates contain it. I just opened a silver supply crate and didn't get the puzzle piece. It's all about luck."
Lonely Square 3: "I'll also send one out. There's a chance to receive a puzzle piece every 10km of driving. After driving 100km, you're guaranteed to receive one!"
I'm a lucky winner (poor man's version): "Really? There's a chance to get them as long as you drive? Then I'm not sleeping tonight, I'll just make sure I get at least ten or eight."
Ling Xueyuan: "Our daily driving target is 360km, which means each person can get at least 3 puzzle pieces every day! There are more than 40,000 players in our area, which is 120,000 pieces a day!"
S-vide: "It seems the puzzle pieces are quite easy to obtain. Let's all work hard to collect them, and a bright tomorrow is just ahead!"
Night Owl: "Number one seed for staying up all night is here! I'm not sleeping anymore, I'm going to kick the bucket and get to work! I'll get a dozen or twenty copies!"
Bilian: "I'm willing but not enough gas. I'm running out of gas, and I have to drive exactly the required distance every day before stopping. I'm going to be a burden to everyone."
Little Karami: "Don't be discouraged upstairs. What do you mean by 'holding others back'? That's not true! We should focus on protecting ourselves while searching for more puzzle pieces. All 42,148 people in District 30 need to enter the new map, and not a single one of us can be left behind!"
The cat doesn't eat fish: "Yes, not one less!"
White phosphorus type: "It's burning! We will succeed!"
Ga Ga: "Yes, success belongs to each and every one of us!"
"..."
The chat area suddenly became lively, and Meng Qingyin was amazed.
However, she really likes the atmosphere in the chat area now.
It is truly invaluable that everyone shares the same goals and works together towards a common objective.
After putting the contents of the gold supply box into her system inventory and dismantling the box, Meng Qingyin returned to the train.
"Little Elf, travel forward as fast as you can," Meng Qingyin said.
Now that she knew there was a chance to get puzzle pieces while driving, she certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass her by.
Moreover, she has plenty of gasoline batteries, so there's no need to worry about running out of energy.
The train sped forward.
Meng Qingyin put the tomato sauce she had just obtained into the kitchen.
I just saw the solar water heater; it's a one-click installation device, and she installed it in the bathroom.
The solar water heater automatically connects to the train's water source and begins filling with water.
After watching it for a while, Meng Qingyin found that the water heater was quite intelligent. It could automatically fill and stop the water supply, and even the temperature could be set.
For a solar water heater, these two functions are already quite practical.
Moreover, since entering this game, Meng Qingyin has never had a proper hot bath.
They all used iron pots to boil water and towels to wipe their bodies, partly because water resources were precious and partly because they didn't have the means to take hot showers.
Especially after the snow season begins, being able to take a nice hot shower becomes a luxury.
Now that we have a solar water heater, plus the condensation function of her peas, we can finally take a nice hot shower.
It's just missing a shower head.
This was not difficult at all. Meng Qingyin opened the trading hall and bought one for 2 copper coins.
At this moment, she discovered that her account balance actually had 10 gold coins, 89 silver coins, and 36 copper coins.
Moreover, the number of copper coins is still slowly increasing.
After thinking for a while, Meng Qingyin understood that someone must have entered the secret realm in a team.
This is the admission fee for the five of them.
Before we knew it, she had so much money.
I haven't paid back the gold coins I borrowed from Uncle Li last time.
Meng Qingyin thought she would pay back the money first, and then the factory would make up the difference once they had earned enough.
She transferred 10 gold coins directly to Li the blacksmith.
The 23rd generation successor of the Li family forging business: "Xiao Meng? Why did you suddenly transfer so much money to me?"
Mengmeng: "This is to repay the money you lent me last time."
The 23rd generation successor of the Li family forging business said: "Last time I lent you 6 gold coins, why did you give me back 10 gold coins? I'm not a loan shark."
Mengmeng: "The 6 gold coins are to return your principal. As for the remaining 4 gold coins, you have helped me a lot, and this is just a small token of my appreciation."
Now that she has the ability to earn money, she naturally wants to give back to Uncle Li.
Uncle Li is a very good person, and he's very good to her too.
The 23rd generation successor of the Li family forging business said: "You young people don't earn money easily, I don't want your money. I can earn money myself, I'm not short of money! If you really want to show your respect, just come and visit me more often and I'll be satisfied."
After sending the message, Li the blacksmith immediately returned the 10 gold coins to her.
The 23rd generation successor of the Li family forging business said: "When I lent you the money last time, I didn't intend for you to pay it back. Keep this money safe, consider it my support for your business! Don't transfer it back to me again, it's too much trouble to keep transferring it back and forth."
Meng Qingyin was speechless for a moment.
In the end, she only sent an "Mm".
Since Uncle Li said he didn't want it, she wouldn't send it.
Perhaps she could buy some teleportation cards and visit Uncle Li again when she has some free time.
With that thought in mind, Meng Qingyin opened the trading hall again and searched for teleportation items.
These types of props are relatively rare, with limited quantities and high prices.
A teleportation card costs 1 gold coin, which is an exorbitant price.
Even so, very few players were selling teleportation cards.
Meng Qingyin only found three teleportation cards.
She spent 3 gold coins to buy the teleportation card, planning to visit Uncle Li after she finished her work.
However, to her surprise, she also received 30 puzzle pieces.
It seems you can get puzzle pieces by spending gold coins?
So, you can get a puzzle piece for 10 silver coins.
Should we send this message to the chat area?
For the vast majority of players, 10 silver coins are too much.
Nowadays, most goods are traded using copper coins, and the purchasing power of 1 silver coin is quite considerable.
10 silver coins...
Few players can afford to spend all of that at once.
More importantly, very few items in the trading hall can be sold for 10 silver coins.
Meng Qingyin hesitated for a moment, but still sent the message to the chat area.
After all, this is one way to obtain puzzle pieces. Regardless of whether it's possible to spend 10 silver coins at once, at least they should be informed.
However, before Meng Qingyin could send her message, there was a sudden commotion in the group chat.
