Chapter 12: Desert Survival Day 3 (5) Overwhelmed with OEM orders...
"Meow Meow is not short of water: The first thing I want to make is a drilling kit. It requires quite a lot of materials, including 15 iron blocks, 3 copper blocks, 10 wood, 30 screws, 15 resins, 30 stones, 10 clay, and 2 thick ropes."
Yu Miaomiao listed the first item needed without hesitation.
"Is Pipi here? Sister, P.S. I'm just calling you sister. You think too highly of us. We haven't even built a furnace, so where can we get these materials for you?"
Yu Miaomiao didn't think they could produce these seemingly advanced materials in a short time, but in order to achieve her goal sooner, she could only use this trick again: first put forward an unattainable requirement, and then put forward a relatively easy requirement.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: In that case, please help me get the materials for the cabin reinforcement. I'm taking work orders all day today."
Eh? Pipi was about to ask, wasn't it agreed that they would just help each other out and share crafting at the workbench? Why were system item synthesis items also included in the collaboration?
However, their classmates really couldn't provide the corresponding materials for the drilling kit, the first craft item proposed by "Meow Meow is Not Lack of Water" in the short term. If the first item was not made in time, wouldn't it be impossible for them to make the second craft product?
The novice protection period will end tomorrow, and the small beast will soon appear. He learned how to make a crossbow a long time ago. Everyone heard that Meow Meow was not short of water and could make an arrow set, and they were very eager to get it. After all, this was the first thing that could be called a weapon.
Pippi discussed with his classmates that there were not many materials for the cabin reinforcement device. Now someone who asked them to do the craft outsourcing has proposed to use some of the materials as the outsourcing fee, so it should be quick to collect the money.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, it's settled then. We've received our first order for stone pickaxes. Is the manufacturing fee two pieces of rubber okay?"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: You guys can discuss the future commissions, don't ask me. Also, to prevent you from being cheated again, if I have any items, I can give them to you first. You can use them to trade materials directly with the other party. I'll give you my stone pickaxe first."
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, you are so kind. It turns out there are still many kind people in the world. Woo woo woo."
"Meow Meow is not short of water:..."
There may be mortgages and disputes in the secondary transaction. Yu Miaomiao had suffered losses before, so she kindly reminded him. How could he be labeled as a good person by "Pipi" directly?
The stone pickaxe in Yu Miaomiao's hand was already worn out, and it would not be appropriate to give it to others, so she simply made one and gave it to "Pipi".
Considering that he might receive more OEM orders in the future and his backpack would probably get fuller and fuller, Yu Miaomiao decided to make a primary backpack expander as an emergency measure.
He stood up from the mat and walked to the workbench. The thin rope he had now was not enough, so he needed to twist two thin ropes out of palm leaves.
Looking at the time, it was already past 4 o'clock. The scorching sun was gradually setting and the temperature dropped a little. Yu Miaomiao wanted to concentrate on trying to make a basic backpack expander seriously this time to see if it would take less time.
This time, Yu Miaomiao did not need any guidance from the workbench. He was already very familiar with the operation and there were no pauses or mistakes in between.
[Successfully trigger the lucky trait and synthesize 2 primary backpack expanders]
Yu Miaomiao looked at the time. If she put all her heart and soul into it, it would take at least 20 minutes. It seemed that this was the limit of the time it could take to make a single item for her.
After using one of them, six more slots immediately appeared in the backpack.
After taking a look at the messages, she saw that Pipi had sent her several messages.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, I'll give you the materials for the stone pickaxe."
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, someone wants to make an arrow set for me. What materials are needed?"
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, are you working on something? Come back to me quickly."
Yu Miaomiao found that ever since Pippi started calling her Sister Miaomiao, her tone had unconsciously become more intimate.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Sorry, I was at my workstation just now and didn't see the message."
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, you can turn on the message notification sound. Oh, and someone wants an arrow set. What materials are needed?"
"Meow Meow: One piece of wood and one piece of stone can make five arrows, which is one arrow set. How do you set the sound you mentioned?"
After a while, Pippi sent a message.
"Is Pipi here? Just think about the message and turn it on. The other party's commission is 1 piece of wood."
"Meow Meow: Okay, I'll make you a set of arrows first."
After visualizing the sound of the message being turned on with her mind, she returned to the workbench, selected the 'Tools/Weapons' column, found the arrow set, and began to follow the instructions.
Use the cutter on the workbench to cut the stone into 5 triangular pieces along the example, and then cut the wood into five equal long strips.
Then carefully tie the top of the strip and the stone together with the fiber, following the winding pattern shown in the example.
When she was tying the second one, a low-decibel "beep" sound appeared in her mind. This should be an information reminder. The fixed position of the fiber in her hand deviated slightly, and a red cross immediately appeared in the visible range of the operating table. She could not proceed to the next step, so she could only dismantle it and tie it again.
It took a total of 13 minutes to complete all five.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, someone wants a basic backpack expander again. The manufacturing fee is one copper ingot."
"Meow Meow: If it's just one item, you guys can keep it for now. When you have two, share it with me. Click me to trade, and I'll give you the primary backpack expander and arrow set."
"Is Pipi here? Wuuwuwu, Sister Miaomiao, I didn't expect you to trust me so much. I always said that working with you is the best."
After giving 5 arrows and 1 primary backpack expander to 'Pipi', Yu Miaomiao received the materials for making a stone pickaxe, as well as 1 rubber, 1 wood, and 1 copper ingot.
I didn't expect that this "Pipi" would actually pay the OEM "fee" to me first.
Yu Miaomiao initially didn't argue with him about who would divide the supplies first because of the other party's goodwill and the previous pleasant cooperation between the two parties, but "Pipi" was obviously sincere, both in the conversation and in the cooperation transaction.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Okay, hurry up and trade, take more orders, and everyone should be prepared for the attack of small beasts as soon as possible."
"Is Pipi here? Okay, Sister Miaomiao."
Now some people have started to commission the business of making arrow sets, and Yu Miaomiao cannot fall behind. Although she cannot use the crossbow, the old bow is also a good weapon.
Continuing to work on the workbench, he soon made 5 arrows. However, having weapons is not enough if you don't know how to use them. Yu Miaomiao took out the old bow, and it was indeed very old as its name suggests.
The bow arm looked like it had been used many times and was rubbed very smooth. There was also an obvious dent in the middle of the bow, as if it was the place where it had been held for a long time. This gave Yu Miaomiao an example, after all, she had only seen it on TV and had never actually used it.
The bowstring showed signs of wear and tear, and it looked like it would break after a few more arrows.
Following the archery posture she had seen on TV, she stood with her feet apart and raised the bow with one hand. Unexpectedly, the bow didn't look big, but it was still a little unstable with just one hand. She stuck the tail of the arrow on the bowstring at the arrowhead, pulled the bow tight, aimed at a spot on the ground in front of her, and let go.
The arrow fell three or four meters in front of her, still far from her target.
Apart from the fact that the bowstring felt noticeably slack when she drew the bow, which prevented her from exerting enough force, she was clearly lacking in strength.
The old bow was difficult for her to use, so it was hard to imagine how difficult it would be to use a crossbow.
"drop"
The message system sounded, and a new message arrived.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, everything has been exchanged, and we've received an order for five primary backpack expanders. The manufacturing fee is one piece of nylon cloth and two pieces of scrap metal."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I don't have five ready, I can only make them and then give them to you."
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, the items have been exchanged. We've also received an order for five primary backpack expanders and eight stone pickaxes. The production fee is one piece of nylon cloth, two pieces of scrap metal, and eight screws."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Why are there so many orders suddenly? It will take me a while to finish them. Can they wait?"
"Is Pipi here? "No one else can do these things except you. Take your time. We have a lot of people looking for us to do OEM, and a lot of people have left positive comments. Everyone trusts us. We can trade materials first without collateral. Is the cooperation method you mentioned the best?"
Yu Miaomiao took a look at the forum and found that the OEM post posted by "Ziren" was already ranked second in popularity, and the first place was still the strategy post posted by Yang Haotian.
"Meow Meow is Not Short of Water: Haha, then don't you become the first generation of workshops in the apocalypse?"
"Is Pipi here? Hehe, I can't say I'm number one, but the business is getting bigger, and some people are jealous."
As he said, Yu Miaomiao saw people cursing on their OEM post, using words like "swindler" and "evildoer of the end times" to curse. The comments on the post could not be deleted, so they could only let these people curse.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: pink eye happens all the time, don't worry too much. Once the holographic screen is turned off, who cares who it is?"
"Is Pipi here? It's okay. I have a strong heart. I just hope Ziren doesn't get affected. Sister Miaomiao, let's make a deal."
After the two of them traded and outsourced more than ten times, Yu Miaomiao got an additional 5 backpack expanders, 3 stone pickaxes, 55 arrows, 7 resins, 4 wood, 5 stones, 5 cottons and 1 piece of scrap iron.
While operating at the workbench, once Yu Miaomiao's physical strength fell below 20, her movements would become slow, and she had no choice but to eat several grapes in a row.
Although grapes are level 3 food, they restore physical strength very quickly. Eating one not only allows you to feel the sweet grape juice exploding in your mouth, but also quickly restores 5 points of physical strength.
The moon had already climbed over his head, and the wind was whistling past, bringing a chill. Yu Miaomiao had already received so many work orders that she was overwhelmed.
