Chapter 20 Expanding the RV and Making a Steel Bed
Ji Wenhua was so angry that his face turned ashen, and he could only remain silent and pretend to be dead.
The players wouldn't let him off the hook, constantly mocking him. Finally, Ji Wenhua couldn't take it anymore and said in the chat channel, "Ji Xinghan, don't be so smug, you'll be crying tomorrow!"
Jian Lin: "So, are you going to use a remote curse tomorrow?"
Ge Xiaochuan: "This skill exists?"
Jian Lin: "Even if it's not a remote curse, it should be similar. Heh, Ji Wenhua's skill is disgusting, it harms others without benefiting himself!"
Ge Xiaochuan muttered to himself, "No wonder I've had such bad luck these past two days. I've always been incredibly lucky!"
After a while, the chat channel finally stopped, and people started discussing dinner.
Of course, everyone is not doing very well:
"Sigh, dinner tonight is just steamed buns and cold water again, how miserable!"
"[Cornbread that's been sitting out for three days] Look at mine, do you feel better now?"
"【Fermented mung bean juice】, oh my god, I was eating it and then throwing up. Why did I end up ordering such a bizarre thing?"
"Upstairs, that's because you don't like the food. Come on, we'll change it!"
"Calling Jian Lin now, I remember his daily diet was also...unpleasant!"
Jian Lin: "What? Who called me? Well then, I won't stand on ceremony! Come on, come on—[A fragrant, freshly baked roast chicken!]"
Everyone: "Wow!"
Jian Lin specially filmed a video of the roast chicken. The chicken in the video was shiny with oil, a golden color that looked very appetizing, and it was still steaming hot.
The aroma of meat wafted through the air, intoxicating everyone.
"Oh my god, roast chicken? Waaaaah, I haven't eaten meat for three days!"
"Roast chicken, my favorite, it's making my mouth water!"
Jin Baiwan: "I want to eat it, Jian Lin, name your price!"
Ge Xiaochuan: "Be rational. It's just a matter of satisfying your appetite. It's easy to overcome. Just tough it out and it'll pass. Upgrading the vehicle is the priority!"
Jin Baiwan: "Resist? What a joke! I can't resist at all! Jian Lin, make your bid!"
Jian Lin privately messaged Ji Xinghan: "How about it? Want to collect some weird and unusual things? Hehe, with so many people, there are bound to be some irrational foodies. Want to sell some?"
Jian Lin: "I've already received many private messages from people; I'm in high demand!"
When Jian Lin posted the video, Ji Xinghan guessed his intention.
A thought struck her: just in time, she needed to collect supplies.
Right now, her RV is empty and desperately needs to be equipped with various devices, such as adding a bed.
Players are currently hoarding resources mainly to upgrade their vehicles and obtain essential food and drink for survival. Coincidentally, the resources she needs are not necessary for upgrading.
Maybe it will be easier to collect.
Ji Xinghan replied, "Okay, help me collect the cotton cloth and cotton!"
Jian Lin: "Alright!"
Jian Lin enjoys negotiating and bargaining, which is precisely what Ji Xinghan dislikes.
So Ji Xinghan simply stopped caring.
She decided to expand her RV first. Currently, her RV cannot be expanded laterally because she doesn't have fire sand, but it can be expanded longitudinally. She previously sold tables and tablecloths and accumulated a lot of materials such as sheet metal and rubber.
Ji Xinghan opened the vehicle control panel:
Vehicle: Small motorhome
Car owner: Ji Xinghan
Battery capacity: 95%/500 mAh [Equipped with battery]
Information: Height 2.8 meters; Width 2 meters; Length 6 meters!
Configuration: None
Next level: Mid-range motorhome (insufficient conditions)
Scalable:
1. For every 1 meter of horizontal expansion, 40 pieces of sheet metal, 12 pieces of rubber, 4 batteries, 10 pieces of leather, 15 pieces of glass, 1 piece of fire sand, 3 pieces of aluminum sheet, and 10 pieces of plastic are required (supplies are insufficient).
2. Each meter of longitudinal expansion requires 20 pieces of sheet metal, 7 pieces of rubber, 2 batteries, 5 pieces of leather, 7 pieces of glass, 2 pieces of aluminum sheet, and 4 pieces of plastic. [Expand Now]
...
She clicked "Expand Now"
A soft "click" sound came from behind. She turned around and saw that the area behind the RV had silently expanded by a meter.
Now, the supplies can be extended by one meter.
She clicked "Expand Now" again, and the RV's length increased by another meter.
Now, her vehicle information has changed to: 2.8 meters high; 2 meters wide; 8 meters long!
She organized her supplies, which are now as follows: sheet metal 150, rubber 23, batteries 0, glass 6, leather 13, aluminum sheets 10, plastic 195...
The supplies for the expansion are insufficient, particularly batteries and glass.
Ji Xinghan shouted a few times in the chat channel: "Two pieces of sheet metal for one battery or one piece of glass!"
Two pieces of sheet metal in exchange for one piece of glass is acceptable, but exchanging one battery is a bit too low.
However, Ji Xinghan was looking for people who lacked iron sheets. Iron sheets were an essential material for vehicle upgrades, and the demand was high. Many people simply didn't dare to exchange iron sheets for other materials.
Therefore, as soon as Ji Xinghan spoke, things immediately became lively.
In a short while, Ji Xinghan replaced 4 batteries and 8 pieces of glass, just enough to extend the space by another two meters.
She extended the length of the RV by another two meters.
The vehicle information has changed to:
Vehicle: Small motorhome
Car owner: Ji Xinghan
Battery capacity: 95%/500 mAh [Equipped with battery]
Information: Height 2.8 meters; Width 2 meters; Length 10 meters!
Preparation: None
Next level: Mid-range motorhome (insufficient conditions)
Scalable:
3. For every 1 meter of horizontal expansion, 40 pieces of sheet metal, 12 pieces of rubber, 4 batteries, 10 pieces of leather, 15 pieces of glass, 1 piece of fire sand, 3 aluminum sheets, and 10 pieces of plastic are required (supplies are insufficient).
4. Each meter of longitudinal expansion requires 20 sheet metal units, 7 rubber units, 2 batteries, 5 leather units, 7 glass units, 2 aluminum sheets, and 4 plastic units (the length has reached the limit of the small RV and cannot be expanded further).
...
Ji Xinghan was taken aback. So, it's already reached the maximum length for a small RV?
In other words, if you want to lengthen it further, you have to upgrade it to a mid-size motorhome!
Currently, the upgrade requirements are not met. The game does not specify what those requirements are, so it seems we can only try.
First expand horizontally, then add facilities such as bathrooms and kitchens.
However, the resources required for horizontal expansion were too numerous, so Ji Xinghan had no choice but to stop in frustration.
Now, her car has 20 square meters of interior space, which is enough to make a small room. With proper planning, it's sufficient.
Jian Lin's private message came through: "There is a man named Jin Baiwan who wants to trade a piece of cotton cloth and two pieces of cotton for half a roast chicken. Do you agree?"
Ji Xinghan thought for a moment and said, "Okay!"
Cotton and cotton cloth are rare items now. It's not bad to be able to exchange half a roast chicken for them. After all, you can eat anything, so who would exchange rare items for a roast chicken?
You can change steamed buns or bread, but you can't change cotton cloth or cotton!
Just by looking at his name, you can tell that Jin Baiwan is a foodie who will do anything for food.
Jian Lin happily went to make the trade, and soon sent over one piece of cotton cloth, two pieces of cotton, and a roast chicken, saying, "Alright, you can eat now!"
Ji Xinghan tore off a chicken wing, chewed it, and nodded secretly. Not bad, really delicious.
Jianlin's roasted chicken is not dry or tough, and it's very flavorful!
As Ji Xinghan ate, she thought to herself that all she was missing was a blueprint for an iron bed. If she had just one more blueprint, she could finally get a good night's sleep tonight!
Let's try another one!
She said in the chat channel: "Looking for iron bed blueprints. Can be exchanged for various materials and resources. DM me if interested!"
Jin Baiwan's private message arrived quickly: "Hehe, the blueprints for the iron bed, right? I have them!"
