Chapter 285 The Increased Nutrient Soil
Lost in thought, Li Sijing finished her breakfast without realizing it.
After she finished washing the dishes, she finally managed to pull herself out of her thoughts of the insect infestation.
Sitting in the activity area, Li Sijing decided to digest her food first.
Wait a minute, she'll take care of today's large beast; she definitely can't let those 100 points slip by.
Just thinking about large wild beasts, Li Sijing suddenly thought of a question.
The meat of large wild animals has mutated due to acid rain exposure.
Therefore, it cannot be eaten, and it cannot even be used as sausage casing material.
But can we just throw this meat down the toilet and let it decompose into nutrient-rich soil?
Once the idea popped into her head, she couldn't suppress it and it took root in her heart.
Let's give it a try! Coincidentally, she had 10 pounds of mutated meat on her.
Upon entering the cramped restroom, Li Sijing first squatted down and pulled open the small box under the toilet.
It contains the decomposition of all the garbage she collected from yesterday noon until now.
When all of it was poured out, there was only 0.09g of potting soil.
Based on this calculation, the amount of nutrient-rich soil that can be decomposed from daily household waste is only about 0.1g.
It takes 500g of potting soil to upgrade intermediate-grade planting soil to advanced-grade planting soil.
If we rely solely on household waste, it would take 5,000 days to accumulate enough, which would be more than a decade – that's really quite a lot.
As for the household waste from other people in the collection area?
Putting aside the fact that it's dirty, messy, and troublesome, the key question is how much I need to collect to get 500g?
Therefore, Li Sijing had no choice but to find another way.
After making sure all the potting soil in the small box had been emptied, Li Sijing put it back in.
Then she took out a piece of mutated meat weighing 1 jin from her mustard seed space and threw it into the toilet.
After the three-second decomposition time had passed and I felt that the toilet was no longer moving,
Only then did Li Sijing pull out the small box under the toilet again.
The moment she pulled it out, she was overjoyed; her method really worked.
The bottom of the small box was covered with a thin layer of nutrient soil, and it looked like she had collected much more than before.
1g—this is the weight Li Sijing stared at for three seconds before arriving at the conclusion. It's ten times the weight of her daily household waste after decomposition.
In other words, 1 pound of mutated meat can be broken down into 1 gram of nutrient soil.
If we calculate it this way, she only needs 500 jin of inedible mutated meat to make up 500g of nutrient soil!
Suppressing her joy, Li Sijing decided to try it a few more times, just in case!
The remaining 9 pounds of mutated meat were thrown into the toilet one by one.
She finally obtained 9g of nutrient soil, and together with what she had before, she now has a total of 11.09g of nutrient soil.
Now that she had reached a conclusion, Li Sijing naturally wanted to make a proper plan.
The large beast she was about to kill was clearly not to be wasted.
With the addition of tomorrow's large wild beast, gathering 500 jin of meat shouldn't be a problem.
However, these alone were clearly not enough to satisfy her appetite.
After all, inedible mutated meat only exists in this world.
In the next world, would she really be willing to throw all the edible meat into the toilet to decompose?
Naturally, we should take advantage of the fact that mutated meat is worthless and buy as much as possible.
As for the purchase price, for ordinary edible meat, it is 1 unit of metal per pound.
She can get 10 jin of metal for every 1 unit of the decomposed mutated meat, and 100 jin of metal for every 1 unit of the decomposed scraps.
In this way, a large beast that has been dismantled can be exchanged for about 30 units of metal.
For ordinary people, there is still some profit to be made.
Of course, the goal is to acquire as much mutant meat as possible.
Li Sijing also specified in the transaction that all transactions would be conducted using metal materials, which should make everyone flock to it.
After the transaction was posted, she ignored the resulting discussion.
It was already past nine o'clock, and Li Sijing began to put on her rain gear, preparing to deal with the large wild animal outside the road.
Around 9:10, the RV was parked in the middle of the road.
Li Sijing got out of the car and retrieved her third low-level resource box for the day. Instead of getting back in the car, she walked towards the edge of the road.
The large wild animal we found outside the highway today was quite unusual; it turned out to be a groundhog.
Holding an umbrella, Li Sijing continued to use her previous strategy to deal with the groundhog that was taller than a person.
Without much trouble, under the heavy rain, it took several shots to take down this large beast.
After storing the pistol and umbrella in the mustard seed space.
Li Sijing walked out of the road, came to the groundhog's corpse, dragged it by its two legs, and headed towards the road.
Standing next to the RV, she took out a Tang sword from her spatial storage and was about to disassemble it when the Starry Night alarm clock rang.
After checking the time, I realized it was 9:30; it was time to use the car repair card.
Luckily, she set an alarm, otherwise she would have completely forgotten.
Li Sijing had 15 car repair cards left. She took one out of her storage space and clicked to use it.
After refreshing the RV's durability, she opened the crafting page and used metal materials to create a rain cover.
Of course, given the current acidity of acid rain, this rain cover will only last for about an hour.
Fortunately, the game provides a notification when the rain cover's durability runs out, so she doesn't need to keep track of the time.
After spending half an hour, at 10 o'clock, Li Sijing finally finished dissecting the groundhog's carcass.
The RV continued on its way, and after taking off her raincoat, she began to process the mutated meat.
This groundhog was about two meters tall, and after being butchered, it yielded 300 kilograms of meat.
We didn't waste any scraps or leather; we brought them all back, weighing about 200 jin (100 catties).
In the end, 300 pounds of mutated meat yielded only 221 grams of nutrient soil.
As for why this differs from previous assessments?
Li Sijing suspected it was because there were bones in the meat.
The nutrients that bones and meat can break down into are different.
This will be confirmed later in the breakdown of the scraps.
200 kilograms of scraps were eventually broken down into 56 grams of nutrient soil.
This 500-pound groundhog produced a total of 277g of nutrient soil.
She has already achieved half of her goal.
It took Li Sijing quite a while to decompose so much mutated meat, and she didn't finish until 10:30.
After all, the toilet opening is so small, you have to throw in pound by pound of meat.
