Chapter 48 Exquisite Wooden Box, Untrained Roasted Chicken
Jin Baiwan: "[Toilet blueprints]"
Ji Xinghan was taken aback.
Jin Baiwan is amazing! He found it so quickly!
Jin Baiwan: "I've tried my best. I found two blueprints. Is that okay?"
Jin Baiwan found Ji Xinghan a toilet blueprint and a stove blueprint; that's quite impressive.
With that, he had fulfilled all his promises.
Ji Xinghan felt a little embarrassed. She had only saved Jin Baiwan's life, spent a healing bandage, and received 5 crystals and two blueprints in return. The return was too high.
Surprisingly, Jin Baiwan remained cheerful and didn't seem to care.
Ji Xinghan felt that this person was worth befriending.
After thinking for a moment, she sent a picture of a whole chicken and said, "Here's a raw, un-roasted chicken for you as a thank you!"
Jin Baiwan received the white-feathered chicken, paused for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Untested? Hahaha, that's right, it hasn't been tempered by fire. I like it, I'll give it a good tempering right away!"
He quickly replied, "Ji Xinghan, you wait here, I'll find you another washbasin blueprint!"
Ji Xinghan was also watching the chat channel.
Now everyone is getting anxious. Tomorrow will definitely be extremely hot, and without upgrading our vehicles, we simply won't be able to withstand such high temperatures.
So everyone panicked, and the chat channel became incredibly noisy:
"Fire sand! Does anyone have fire sand? I'd like to buy it!"
"Iron sheet, does anyone have iron sheet? I can trade it for fruit!"
"I'd like to buy rubber; I can trade it for bread."
"I need 4 pieces of iron sheet, please, everyone, I'm just missing iron sheet."
"Hey, sheet metal is the hardest to get. Everyone's short on it, since upgrading a vehicle requires 10 sheets of sheet metal, and many people can't collect enough!"
Ji Xinghan observed that, indeed, many people lacked iron sheets.
The demand for rubber and glass is small, so we can just gather them up. The ones that already have fire sand but lack sheet metal are the most anxious.
We're just a little bit away from entering a safe space to get some rest and withstand tomorrow's high temperatures.
Who wouldn't be anxious!
The chat channel was buzzing with excitement.
Ji Xinghan: "Looking for washbasin blueprints or other blueprints, glass, copper sheets, aluminum sheets, rubber, batteries. Sheet metal can be exchanged. DM me if interested!"
She just mined an iron ore today, and there was tons of iron scrap!
Immediately, many people searched for her in the chat channel, and even more started sending her private messages.
Ji Xinghan scrolled through the private chat history and found several useful messages.
An acquaintance attracted her.
Qi Yunshan: "[Intermediate Condenser Blueprint], buddy, I want to replace 20 pieces of sheet metal, 10 pieces of rubber, 10 pieces of glass, and 10 pieces of leather. Is that okay?"
[Intermediate Condenser Blueprint: One-time use, can be used to craft intermediate condensers, not bound, produces 3 liters of pure water every 12 hours! Required materials: 30 sheet metal, 6 rubber, 6 glass, 6 charcoal.]
Ji Xinghan glanced at it; this water condenser would be very useful to her.
That magical land can only be irrigated with pure water, and her primary water condenser doesn't produce enough.
The intermediate condenser produces three times the water of the primary condenser, generating 6 liters of water per day, which is sufficient for irrigating the land.
However, isn't Qi Yunshan asking for a bit too much?
This is outrageous!
Ji Xinghan casually glanced through her information and discovered that she had finally hidden her personal details.
Not bad, you've become smarter.
However, no matter how smart she was, she wanted too much.
Ji Xinghan: "No, I can give you 10, 5 rubber, and 5 glass."
Qi Yunshan: "Sister, I'm not just talking to you about the price, you have to be sincere!"
She sighed, "If that person hadn't kept ignoring my asking price, I wouldn't have come to you to talk to you again."
Ji Xinghan thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll give you 20 pieces of sheet metal, 5 pieces of rubber, and 5 pieces of glass. This is the highest price I'm offering. If you don't want to exchange them, then forget it!"
She has a lot of sheet metal, so we can give her more.
Of course, she left some room for negotiation to prevent Qi Yunshan from continuing to haggle.
Two minutes later, Qi Yunshan said, "Okay!"
She had barely finished answering when she exclaimed, "Oh dear! Yan Miaomiao promised me! She has two more rubbers, two more glass pieces, and two more leather pieces than you..."
Sure enough, in the chat channel, Yan Miaomiao said, "Qi Yunshan, why aren't you replying to me? I'll send you the supplies right away!"
Ji Xinghan: ...
What a coincidence!
The coincidence almost made her suspect that Qi Yunshan did it on purpose, or that Qi Yunshan was acting with Yan Miaomiao!
Ji Xinghan remained silent.
Qi Yunshan replied in the chat channel: "Sorry, I sold it, although that person offered 2 less rubber, 2 less glass, and 2 less leather than you..."
Yan Miaomiao: "??? Qi Yunshan, are you stupid? She contributed so many fewer supplies than me, and you still want to give her the blueprints?"
Qi Yunshan: "I have no choice, I just promised her, and I have to keep my promise!"
Yan Miaomiao: "..."
She couldn't take it anymore: "Why are you acting so strangely? Keeping your promise? What kind of time is this to still be keeping your promise?"
Qi Yunshan: "I can't help it, I have to keep my word. I'm sorry, Yan Miaomiao!"
Then, Qi Yunshan privately messaged Ji Xinghan: "Sister, let's make a deal!"
Ji Xinghan and Qi Yunshan made a deal.
She obtained the blueprints for the intermediate condenser.
She hesitated for a moment, but couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "What do you gain after keeping your promise?"
Qi Yunshan: "Huh?"
She laughed it off: "Hehe, sister, what are you talking about? I don't understand!"
Ji Xinghan smiled slightly: "Okay, come again next time!"
Perhaps Qi Yunshan's innate skills are quite interesting!
Ji Xinghan put the blueprints into her backpack. She was just putting the blueprints away; she wasn't in a hurry to make them.
She currently lacks basic materials such as rubber and glass.
Ji Xinghan continued to trade, exchanging 100 pieces of iron for 50 pieces of glass, 38 pieces of rubber, 20 aluminum sheets, 25 copper sheets, 8 sponges, 12 batteries, 5 peaches, 3 rolls of cotton cloth, 1 ice crystal, 1 space crystal, 2 crystal stones, 3 fire crystals, 1 earth crystal...
They exchanged a bunch of supplies.
She changed everything as long as she felt it was useful.
However, knowing that sheet metal has many uses, she only offered 100 pieces in exchange.
She was pleasantly surprised to find that she could exchange it for crystals.
Crystals are rare resources!
With high temperatures fast approaching, the players were in a real hurry to upgrade their vehicles and had to bring out their best-kept secrets to replace the metal plates.
This benefited Ji Xinghan.
Unfortunately, the blueprints are still in short supply. Some people try to exchange them for blueprints, but the prices are all exorbitant. They probably want to make a quick buck from Ji Xinghan.
The deal fell through.
The blueprints weren't very good, but Ji Xinghan didn't insist.
No blueprints for the washbasin were found.
Jin Baiwan privately messaged: "It won't work, Ji Xinghan, there's no one selling washbasin blueprints."
Ji Xinghan: "It's alright, we'll collect them slowly."
Actually, she was quite anxious.
If there's a restroom available, you won't have to run outside when you urgently need to use the restroom, which is much more convenient.
She was busy selling sheet metal and making transactions for a long time.
Ji Xinghan glanced at his watch; it was already nine o'clock at night.
She decided to take a break.
She organized her supplies, and now they are as follows:
250 sheet metal, 143 iron blocks, 37 rubber, 23 batteries, 56 glass, 21 aluminum sheets, 25 copper sheets, 4 wooden boards, 170 plastic, 9 fire crystals, 7 crystal stones, 3 ice crystals, 2 earth crystals, 1 space crystal, 3 fire sand, 3 anti-inflammatory needles, 2 healing bandages, 4 antidiarrheal capsules (bottles), 1 dining table and chair blueprint, 1 refrigerator blueprint, 1 exquisite key, 1 toilet blueprint, 1 intermediate condenser blueprint, 8 sponges, 5 peaches, 3 cotton cloths, 1 watermelon...
Ji Xinghan glanced at it and then stopped.
She had completely forgotten something so important—she had obtained the key to Ji Wenhua's exquisite wooden box!
She also has a beautiful wooden box!
It's open!
